Chapter 15: The Usual Place, I Want to See You (5)

After that, they met again, six years later. She was fourteen, and Li Qingshen had returned from abroad. On New Year's Eve, they had a meal, and he gave her his first gift.

Later on, Li Qingshen came back several times. The two of them would just have meals together, and each time he never forgot to give her a gift. Occasionally, he would also slip her some money.

The Ling family wasn't well-off. Her parents had died, and her grandparents had passed away early too, so she only lived with her great-grandfather. Every time Li Qingshen came to visit his grandmother, her great-grandmother, the great-grandfather would always instruct her to attend to Li Qingshen.
