Lin Wan didn't respond, her gaze following Ye Qing's busy figure in the hall, her mind already drifting to a past life.
"I've heard Xiaoqing talk about this before. At that time, their family really couldn't make it. His dad drank outside and gambled away the already scarce family money, tried borrowing but couldn't get any, and was left with no choice but to learn and sell dumplings for a while. Every family has their hardships; business was meant for everyone, we can't stop it. Don't lose a good friend over this."
"Mom, it's not like you think. Anyway, don't let her visit our home in the future." She had to find a way to make Ye Qing leave the store.
Lately, Lin Wan wasn't busy knitting her sweaters. Instead, every day she went to the market early to buy groceries then headed to the restaurant.
Lin Wan noticed that with her there, Ye Qing behaved much more restrained in front of her mom.
