Ou Ruoshui lamented that she had been too careless before. If she had been as meticulous as Gu Xiaobei, her business would not have failed.
Gu Xiaobei chatted with Ou Ruoshui for a while longer and invited her to stay for dinner.
Ou Ruoshui politely declined with a smile, "I'm going to pick up Jiujiu from school now and we'll have dinner at home."
Understanding her situation, Gu Xiaobei did not further insist. He packed some canned food and instant noodles into a net bag for Ou Ruoshui to take home for Chen Gang and Jiujiu.
On the eve of the New Year, Li Fengmei came specifically to ask Gu Xiaobei if he would attend Xiangyang's wedding.
