As they were about to arrive at the family quarters, they ran into Fengmei playing with two kids in the courtyard. "You haven't been back for a while," Fengmei said warmly.
"I've been busy with my job in the city," Gu Xiaobei paused to chat with her. Seeing the women in conversation, Lu Zhanguo felt out of place standing by and left after greeting Xiaobei, leaving her to talk with Fengmei while he went upstairs.
"I heard you're working at the same company as Li Juan's brother?" Fengmei lowered her voice to speak to Xiaobei.
"Yes, I am," Xiaobei didn't see anything notable in this.
"There are talks in the yard that you're working with the man you used to fancy and that you flirt with him all day long," Fengmei quickly shared this with Xiaobei, feeling that the woman before her was unrecognizable from her former self.
Hearing this, Xiaobei felt a surge of anger, her expression darkening, "Who's spreading such nonsense? I'd like to teach them a lesson."
