But without a doubt, it’s best to choose what’s most comfortable for yourself.
She respected Xu Jie’s choice.
“Then let’s not change it. I usually reply when I see a message, it’s just that sometimes work gets busy and I might not reply promptly, but it’s just a delay, definitely no other meaning. So feel free to send me messages.”
“Okay.”
“When I have time, I’ll come visit you too.”
“Actually, there’s no need to trouble yourself.”
“How can it be troublesome? It’s just about seeing you.”
“Okay, thank you. By the way, I have another request.”
“What is it?”
Xu Jie glanced at the food on the floor somewhat embarrassedly: “Can I take all these with me?”
“Of course you can!”

Without a second word, Wenyan immediately squatted down and began to pack up.
Xu Jie wanted to help, but seeing her proficient movements, he simply couldn’t lend a hand.
He watched Wenyan, feeling immensely satisfied.
He and Xiaorou’s daughter were truly wonderful!
After packing up the meal boxes, Wenyan handed the bag to Xu Jie.
“You should go back too, it’s time for a rest. We’ll have plenty of time to visit mom in the future.”
“Okay.”
Xu Jie also wanted to walk a few more steps with Wenyan, even if they didn’t say a word along the way.
They descended the stairs at a leisurely pace, eventually finishing the short journey.
“Then I’ll ride back.”
Xu Jie said goodbye to Wenyan first, walking toward his electric bike.
Wenyan followed him a few steps, then stood still and watched him go.
Unexpectedly, Xu Jie’s electric bike stopped after running about ten meters.
He tried several times, but the bike just wouldn’t start again.
Seeing this, Wenyan immediately jogged over.
“What’s wrong, did it run out of power?”
“It should still have power. I charged it for a whole day before leaving. I don’t know what the problem is.”
With that, Xu Jie began to check the bike.
Looking at the old bike, Wenyan couldn’t help asking, “You’ve had this bike for a long time, haven’t you?”
“Over a decade.”
“That’s quite a while. How about we scrap it and I give you a new one?”
“No need,” Xu Jie immediately refused, “maybe it can still be repaired.”
“Can you repair it yourself? But there are no tools here.”
“Let me take another look, trying might just do the trick.”
Xu Jie tried pushing the bike again, this time it was way off.
The rear wheel fell apart completely. If Wenyan hadn’t been quick to bend down and catch it, the wheel would have surely rolled down the slope for a good distance.
She looked at Xu Jie, feeling a bit embarrassed for the ineffective bike.
“See, it’s chosen to retire by itself.”
“Are you alright?” Xu Jie hurriedly abandoned the bike to stop the wheel, “Did it hit you, did you get dirty?”
“No, this guy is too slow, it didn’t even manage to touch me.”
At this moment, Shen Jingxiu also got out of the car and joined them.
After a brief discussion, they decided to leave the scrapped bike there.
Xu Jie rode in Shen Jingxiu’s car back to his scrap yard, then planned to come back with his tricycle used for collecting scraps to tow the broken bike away.
Although Wenyan felt there was no need to keep the scrapped bike, Xu Jie insisted on doing so.
When getting in the car, Xu Jie kept holding the bag of food Wenyan had given him.
He wasn’t very talkative, and even though Wenyan could be chatty, she didn’t want to force a conversation, so she suggested he lean back in the seat and rest for a while.
Not until they reached the destination did Wenyan gently call out to him.
“Mr. Xu, we’ve arrived.”
Xu Jie immediately opened his eyes: “Okay, thank you guys. You can go back directly.”
After speaking, Xu Jie opened the door and got out of the car.
However, Wenyan didn’t rush to leave, as she saw a man smoking in front of the tin hut entrance.
The man looked fierce, and Wenyan was subconsciously a little concerned. So she decided to stay inside the car and watch for a while.
She opened the car window halfway, clearly hearing the loud-voiced man talking with Xu Jie.
“Where have you been, Brother San? I’ve been waiting for you for ages. Who’s that, how come you got off their car? That’s a luxury car, you know.”
Xu Jie didn’t want people to know about his relationship with Wenyan.
He simply explained: “My bike broke down, they are kind people who gave me a lift.”
“Which bike, your second-hand little electric donkey? I’ve been telling you I’d give you one, and you never accepted. Now look, you’ve been inconvenienced. Here, I’ve brought you this month’s cardboard, all nice and neat and clean!”
