"Alright, take it then," he said.
"Okay, I'll take it and ask around for you, and come back to tell you when I have some news."
Fu Shiyin's eyes brimmed with tears, yet she smiled, looking a bit embarrassed, "How should I thank you? It's really... troubling."
Su Shu smiled lightly, "It's really no trouble. I'll ask around, but I can't even guarantee that I can manage it. If we are talking about thanks, I should be thanking your parents."
With her mind somewhat eased, Fu Shiyin seemed much more relaxed, chatting about everyday matters with Su Shu. Suddenly, Su Shu remembered that she hadn't gotten to mention her "big news" and slapped her forehead.
"I was wondering why I felt like I was forgetting something."
That caught even Ge Tingzhi's attention.
Xiao'ai too, holding a writing brush and tilting up her little face, looked cutely confused at her aunt slapping her forehead.
Um... why slap herself? Doesn't it hurt?
Su Shu looked at Fu Shiyin, then Ge Tingzhi, and Xiao'ai.
