Her Mother Asked Her for Help

"Is he free tonight? Bring him back for a meal!"

"He is very busy." Gu Xiang rejected her straight away.

She was rather unwilling to visit the Meng family herself, let alone bring Jiang Chi along with her.

She did not feel that the Meng family had let her down. She just felt… unhappy whenever she saw her mother pamper Meng Yan in front of her.

Her mother said, "Isn't tomorrow a weekend? You can bring him over at night. He can stay at our house."

"I can't make decisions over how he uses his time," Gu Xiang said, "If you don't believe me, you can ask his family. They already said that the reason he remained single for so long is because he's too busy with work to find himself a spouse."

Upon hearing this, her mother remembered that Jiang Chi was indeed rather unapproachable. She answered, "Alright, alright! I actually have a friend whose husband is sick. Can you help me ask Jiang Chi to give him a diagnosis?"
