Su Chen's face was full of helplessness.

Good guy.

He, a special squad leader, is now also working part-time as a psychologist.

but.

He actually knew about Shen Qingzhu's problem.

It's simply because of his previous shortcomings; he was always lagging behind the team and felt anxious because he saw himself as a burden.

Actually.

All I need to do is become stronger.

"Just focus on refining the source, and things will naturally fall into place. Don't worry about it."

Shen Qingzhu frowned, but ultimately said nothing.

In the living room, only Baili Pangpang and Su Chen remained watching TV, and for a moment, silence fell over the room.

Not long after.

The door to the room was pushed open.

Su Chen and Baili Pangpang both looked towards the door and saw Cao Yuan's smiling face and... a familiar face.

Lu Menglei-!

Cao Yuan and Lu Menglei walked side by side, the former scratching the back of his head, clearly a little nervous.

"Senior, I'll be staying here."

Lu Menglei was well-informed and didn't seem reserved at all in this situation; on the contrary, she was quite curious.

"I didn't expect my junior to be so wealthy. This villa must have cost a fortune."

Cao Yuan quickly waved his hand.

"No, no, no, this villa belongs to... my family elders. They're letting us stay here temporarily; it's not just me."

Lu Menglei chuckled: "What? So scared? Are you worried that I'm after your family fortune?"

Cao Yuan shook his head like a rattle drum, stammering for a long time, but couldn't utter a single complete sentence.

Su Chen and Baili Pangpang looked at each other, unsure of what to say.

It's only been a few days.

Cao Cao's progress is amazing...

Despite their surprise, the two stood up at the same time and greeted Lu Menglei warmly: "Hello, senior."

Lu Menglei was not intimidated.

Hello, juniors.

Lu Menglei wasn't nervous, but Cao Yuan stood to the side, unsure of what to do. He seemed like the guest.

You should say something!

Noticing the gazes directed at him, Cao Yuan seemed to only then realize what was happening, and stammered, "Well, the school is temporarily closed due to some issues, so I brought my senior here for a look around..."

As for what it is?

It's probably something Fang Mo and Lu Baoyou did, but since it's none of their business, we'll just pretend we don't know.

Lu Menglei quickly followed up, "Did I disturb you?"

"No, no, no, we're fine anyway."

The two shook their heads.

We may joke around, but we can't possibly risk our brother's happiness for the rest of his life, can we?

"Senior, if you don't mind, please stay for a simple meal."

Lu Menglei looked around, her gaze lingering on Cao Yuan for a moment before a smile appeared on her face.

"Okay."

Su Chen smiled and stood up.

"I'm going to buy groceries. Cao Yuan, you take good care of your senior."

After saying that, he got up to leave. How could Baili Pangpang stay behind and be a third wheel? He quickly followed him.

As soon as I stepped out the door, I bumped into Jiang Er and An Qingyu, who had just returned.

Jiang Er had obviously learned about the situation; her little face was full of excitement, and her desire to watch the show and hear the gossip had reached its peak.

"What's going on! What's going on!"

"Cao Yuan brought her home?!"

Su Chen and Baili Pangpang nodded. Jiang Er glanced at the villa, then at An Qingyu: "Qingyu, you go with them to buy groceries. I'm going back."

It's not appropriate to have a room full of grown men with a girl.

Jiang'er is different.

The three of them didn't have any objections.

Although he said he was going out to buy groceries, Su Chen naturally became a hands-off manager because An Qingyu had returned.

Anyway, it wasn't him who cooked.

An Qingyu was in charge of buying groceries, Baili Pangpang was in charge of carrying things, and Su Chen just followed along to pay (using Zuo Qing's card).

I took a stroll around the farmers' market.

Baili Pangpang was carrying two large bags in each hand: "Brother Chen... Qingyu, can you help me out..."

An Qingyu ignored it.

Su Chen peeled an orange, casually tossed it, and it landed precisely in Baili Pangpang's mouth, perfectly blocking it.
