Just as Sun Jiaming was about to answer, he heard footsteps approaching.
"Ah, Jia Ming, you're here! What are you doing standing at the door? Come on, come inside and sit."
Surprisingly, Zhou Mazi came out just then. He had been inside the house, unaware of what Gu'er was up to, as she was out so late. Not that he was worried. He had just stepped into the courtyard to relieve himself when he heard Li Hua's voice. It sounded like Sun Jiaming had arrived, so he walked over.
He was incredibly warm toward Sun Jiaming. He didn't mind Gu'er being with him at all; in fact, he was hoping something would blossom between them. He'd be thrilled to have a son-in-law like Sun Jiaming.
