“The child has already apologized, and it’s crowded here today, she was bumped into from behind. What do you want, anyway?” Ye Xiaomeng, seeing the distressed look on Joy’s face, immediately raised her head and glared at Tong Fei fiercely.
Tong Fei, in her stylish outfit and sunglasses, looked like a fashionable woman. She wore a serious expression and said, “You’re her mother? Children need to be educated from a young age. Your parenting seems to have failed miserably.”
“Look at you all dressed up and yet speaking so harshly?” Ye Xiaomeng appeared unwilling to back down. She hadn’t expected this person, who looked so polished, to be so unreasonable.
Seeing that Song Can didn’t say anything on the side, Tong Fei couldn’t continue acting unreasonably.
“Auntie, are you okay?” Tong Fei observed Song Can carefully.
“Oh, I’m fine. I was lost in thought just now.” Song Can shook her head while looking at Tong Fei, and suddenly, she remembered. The girl’s eyebrows and eyes resembled Shaoting’s. No wonder she looked so familiar.
She felt like she was going a bit crazy, how could the girl resemble Shaoting?
Well, maybe she was just imagining things, wishing for a grandchild so much that she was seeing things.
They should get married soon and have children.
“Little girl, Granny is fine. Be more careful next time,” Song Can, who usually had a serious demeanor, rarely showed such kindness to a child.
Seeing how Song Can spoke, Tong Fei didn’t say much more.
She held Song Can’s hand and urged, “Auntie, let’s go. It’s time for our appointment, and we shouldn’t be late.”
“Alright, let’s go.” As they left, Song Can couldn’t help but cast one more glance at Joy.
Once they were gone, Ye Xiaomeng squatted down to check on Joy. “Joy, don’t be afraid. It wasn’t your fault, and that lady said it’s okay, right? Let’s go. Your mommy is probably on her way to find us.”
“Okay, let’s go quickly, so mommy can find us easily.” The little girl brightened up when she talked about her mom.
“Tong Fei, Shaoting is usually very busy, and I guess you’re the one handling a lot of the engagement preparations,” Song Can said apologetically. Although Gu Shaoting had agreed to the engagement, he was always indecisive when it came to wedding planning. He claimed to be busy and let them make decisions themselves.
That was why they were here today picking out the engagement ring, and when she mentioned it to him this morning, he seemed indifferent.
“Let them choose themselves. As long as they like it, price isn’t an issue.” He thought.
He just didn’t understand the significance of an engagement ring for women and for marriage.
This morning, Tong Fei knew that Gu Shaoting was too busy to accompany her to choose the ring, and she looked disappointed all day. Song Can couldn’t bear to see her like this, so she spent the day with her.
“It’s okay, Auntie. I understand that Shaoting is busy. It’s the same if we choose it ourselves. Sometimes, men’s tastes are unreliable,” Tong Fei showed an understanding smile.
“If you can understand, that’s good. Later, I’ll have the manager bring over the best, shiniest, and biggest diamond ring for you to choose from,” Song Can patted Tong Fei’s hand and said confidently.
“Great,” Tong Fei smiled and nodded.
When Shu Pan finally arrived, both Ye Xiaomeng and Joy were exhausted from shopping. Ye Xiaomeng suggested finding a place to have a drink and rest their feet.
Shu Pan said with a touch of annoyance, “I told you not to go through so much trouble, spending all this money.”
“It’s nothing. The most important thing is that we ran into someone who thinks too highly of herself. She really ruined the mood,” Ye Xiaomeng grumbled, still frustrated..
