"I can endure hardship." Li Jiaojiao quickly said, "I really can endure hardship."
"Jiaojiao." Zhao Jingmiao shook her head with a smile, "Thatâs not enough."
"Why?" Li Jiaojiao asked in confusion.
"If possible, I hope you can become a cultured and knowledgeable person, just like your Sister Lingling." Zhao Jingmiao said with a smile, "This job seems profitable, but itâs all labor work, just earning small money."
"If youâre still not convinced, tomorrow Iâll go out to set up a stall, you can come with me. How about it?" Zhao Jingmiao shook her head with a smile, "If possible, I also really want to go to school."
"The people I admire most in this life are those with culture."
The two of them chatted and laughed as they entered the small shop.
Not far behind them, Qian Bao clearly heard the conversation, and silently stopped walking.
What she likes most is cultured people, but ironically, he is an uncultured rough man.
"Sis, I feel like someone is following us from behind." After leaving the small shop, Li Jiaojiao whispered, "Could it be a bad person?"
"No." Zhao Jingmiao lowered her head and didnât turn to look, "Itâs nothing, letâs go."
Actually, since she left home, she knew Qian Bao was following again, but since he didnât speak, she pretended to know nothing.
These days, she actually knew that Qian Bao had been secretly following her.
But what can be done?
She would not reciprocate his feelings, so she might as well pretend not to know it. After some time, when his novelty fades, he will stop coming.
Only after escorting Zhao Jingmiao and Li Jiaojiao back to the courtyard house, did Qian Bao reluctantly leave.
"Boss, I knew you were here." The young fellow ran over, "Why didnât you tell the brothers you were leaving?"
The young fellow felt guilty about taking over Qian Baoâs position.
The trouble was caused by him, yet it resulted in Qian Bao taking the fall, which is just so unbrotherly.
But Qian Bao said if he didnât take over, he would still leave, and if someone else came, no one here would be able to manage.
Speaking of managing, he knew that the boss was mainly worried about that girl named Zhao Jingmiao.
"Whatâs there to talk about." Qian Bao said with a smile, "If she ever needs anything, help me look after her."
Qian Bao looked back in the direction of the courtyard house, "I only ask you this one favor."
"Alright." The young fellow nodded with red eyes.
"Look at you, such a coward." Qian Bao ruffled his hair, "Youâre a boss now, donât be such a coward in the future."
"Boss." The young fellow cried, "Youâll always be my boss."
"Do you want to be my boss now?" Qian Bao kicked him, "Hurry up and leave, youâre getting on my nerves."
"Stop following me." Qian Bao picked up his few bags, "Iâm leaving."
"Couldnât you... just stay?" The young fellow wiped his tears, "Itâs okay not being the boss, the Capital City works too."
Itâs not okay.
Qian Bao looked up at the sky, forcing back the tears in his eyes.
In the Capital City, he couldnât resist the urge to see her.
If one day he couldnât resist confessing, how would he speak to her?
Besides, sheâs worked so hard; how could he bear to continue wasting away?
Go, go, when he returns, Qian Bao is determined to become someone significant before standing in front of her again.
