Pretty and charming, dressed in the 90s, she's good at everything from making money to causing

Lin Ting was actually very curious about what the story between Su Yu and Wu Fei was, but seeing Su Meiren crying like this, the story was very likely an accident.

She is a kind and good person who would not do anything to reopen old wounds.

So... it's not too late to ask her after she's finished crying.

Lin Ting went downstairs and continued to discuss the renovation details with the workers.

The crying upstairs wasn't loud, almost inaudible; clearly, Su Yu was trying her best to control herself.

About half an hour later, Lin Ting and his masters reached an agreement.

“Young lady, this job is simple. The hardest part is painting the walls.” The head of the renovation team, surnamed Zhang, was almost forty years old. “We’ll split into two teams. One team will finish painting the walls first, and the other team will get you clothes hangers and stuff.”

"You're not going to make cabinets either. This job is easy. It'll definitely be done in a week at most."

Captain Zhang patted his chest and assured him.

Since they were found by Uncle Nie, Lin Ting felt quite reassured. She nodded and said, "Okay, how about the fees?"

Captain Zhang said with a smile, "It's fifteen yuan a day for each person. You can settle the payment after you finish the work. I'll give you a list of the materials and stuff later."

"Alright then, I'll leave the shop to you." Lin Ting didn't fuss about the ingredients, even though she knew the other party might try to make a quick buck here.

Don’t employ people you doubt, and don’t doubt people you employ.

Lin didn't care whether he had taken any benefits; at least she was relieved and didn't have to keep running back and forth to the building materials market.

Lin Ting handed the keys and a piece of paper with his phone number written on it to Captain Zhang: "Please take good care of me these next few days. If anything happens, you can call me."

"Okay, don't worry," Captain Zhang said. "We work for the Jiang family, so we definitely won't cheat you."

"Thank you for your hard work."

Lin Ting went upstairs and extended his hand to Su Meiren, who looked utterly broken: "Let's go, I'll treat you to dinner."

Su Yu wiped away her tears, clearly still dazed from crying and not quite processing what had happened.

Lin Ting pulled her up directly: "How can you have the energy to cry if you don't eat your fill? Come on, I'll take you to a really good restaurant. Trust me, there's no sadness that Aunt Zhao's braised pork can't solve."

Su Yu was silent for a moment, then said, "I think I'll go home to eat. I don't have class this afternoon, so I want to go home."

Tomorrow is Sunday, and those who don't have classes in the afternoon have already gone home, like Zheng Miaoying.

Lin thought for a moment and nodded: "Okay, do you have any money with you? If you're not feeling well, take a taxi home."

Su Yu nodded: "I brought it."

"Where's your medicine? Do you have it at home or do you need to go back to your dorm to get it?"

"We have some at home."

"Let's go then, I'll see you to your car."

Lin Ting was also hesitant to take Su Yu out around, fearing that she might suddenly feel unwell.

After seeing Su Yu into a taxi, Lin Ting stretched and said to Jiang Zong, "Let's go eat."

"it is good."

In Aunt Zhao's little shop, she saw that the two of them were finally face to face again, and she couldn't help but smile.

"You two are off tomorrow, what are you going to do?" Aunt Zhao chatted casually with Lin Ting.

Lin replied, "Go to Wu'ai Market, I need to buy some goods."

"Huh?" Aunt Zhao paused, "Aren't you two going out for some fun? Your shop is still a long way from opening, isn't it?"

"Play……"

Lin Ting suddenly remembered Jiang Zong's plan to climb the mountain to watch the sunrise.

She forced a smile and said seriously, "As a good young person of the new era, I cannot indulge in pleasure. I must work hard and contribute to the construction of our motherland!"

Aunt Zhao: "..."

She spoke so honestly that she didn't know how to offer any advice.

Across from Lin Ting, Jiang Zong looked at her with exceptionally bright eyes.

She was actually thinking about building up the motherland.

She's such a good girl.

Lin Ting, a kind-hearted girl, suddenly asked him, "There are so many people at Wu'ai Market, are you still coming with me tomorrow?"

When she mentioned that she was going to buy goods over the weekend, Jiang Zong said he would go with her.

Ke Lin thought to himself, "Given the environment of Wu'ai Market, if Jiang Zong went there, he would be half dead."

Jiang Zong was still immersed in the pace of building the motherland. Upon hearing this, he nodded without thinking and said, "Go."

His attitude was overly firm.

Lin Ting couldn't help but doubt once again whether she really had some talent for healing socially anxious teenagers.

After the meal, the two parted ways.

Lin Ting went home, and Jiang Zong returned to his dormitory.

Because tomorrow is Sunday, there aren't many people at school, so the news of Chen Jun and Liang Tianxing fighting again hasn't reached Lin Ting's ears yet.

Lin Ting stayed in her bedroom, writing and drawing, gradually adding to her purchase order.

"Dong dong dong."

A very polite knock on the door.

Lin Ting subconsciously replied, "Coming."

She put the manuscript away before getting up to open the door.

Lin Ting paused for a moment as she gripped the doorknob, then asked, "Who is it?"

Although she felt that the polite knock couldn't possibly be from Chen Jun, she figured it was better to ask first since she was home alone.

The person outside the door replied, "It's me, Chen Jun."

Lin Ting: "..."

She decided to play dead.

"Lin Ting, I mean no harm. If you don't want to open the door, can we just talk like this?"

The sounds outside the door continued, but he remained calm, unlike himself.

Lin Ting: "...?"

Has this brat suddenly gone mad?

She glanced out the window instinctively.

The sun is setting in the west, that's for sure.

Chen Jun, still rambling outside the door, said, "Lin Ting, I acted impulsively before and caused you a lot of trouble. I'm very sorry."

Lin Ting was completely dumbfounded.

She felt that it might not be that Chen Jun had gone mad, but rather that her posture was incorrect when she stood up to open the door.

Or perhaps this world is just fantastical.

"Can you forgive me?"

Lin Ting shivered again.

This familiar feeling...

She couldn't help but think of the ominous feeling she had when she was in the shop at noon, the feeling that someone was watching her.

Lin Ting thought for a moment quickly and then asked, "Is there anything else?"

Chen Jun was silent for a while, then suddenly laughed.

He said, "I'm fine, I just feel really sorry for you, so I came to apologize."

Lin Ting's gaze turned slightly cold.

Something is definitely amiss!

She gave a nonchalant "Oh," and said, "Okay, you can go now."

"it is good."

Lin Ting pressed her ear against the door, listening carefully to the sounds outside.

To her surprise, the sound of footsteps actually began to fade into the distance.

Lin Ting had a strong urge to open the door and take a look, but she resisted and even locked the door from the inside.

Who knows if he'll pretend to leave and then quietly come back?

Safety first, no risks!

Lin Ting paced back and forth in the house several times, feeling that something was strange about the matter.

If Chen Jun was trying to trick me into opening the door with an apology, what did he intend to do? Beat me up?

If Chen Jun really only came to apologize, and he really left...

Lin Ting's pupils contracted.

I'd rather just beat her up!

How terrifying it is that the offspring have developed brains!
