"I can endure hardship." Li Jiaojiao quickly said, "I really can endure hardship."

"Jiaojiao." Zhao Jingmiao shook her head with a smile, "That’s not enough."

"Why?" Li Jiaojiao asked in confusion.

"If possible, I hope you can become a cultured and knowledgeable person, just like your Sister Lingling." Zhao Jingmiao said with a smile, "This job seems profitable, but it’s all labor work, just earning small money."

"If you’re still not convinced, tomorrow I’ll go out to set up a stall, you can come with me. How about it?" Zhao Jingmiao shook her head with a smile, "If possible, I also really want to go to school."

"The people I admire most in this life are those with culture."

The two of them chatted and laughed as they entered the small shop.

Not far behind them, Qian Bao clearly heard the conversation, and silently stopped walking.

What she likes most is cultured people, but ironically, he is an uncultured rough man.

"Sis, I feel like someone is following us from behind." After leaving the small shop, Li Jiaojiao whispered, "Could it be a bad person?"

"No." Zhao Jingmiao lowered her head and didn’t turn to look, "It’s nothing, let’s go."

Actually, since she left home, she knew Qian Bao was following again, but since he didn’t speak, she pretended to know nothing.

These days, she actually knew that Qian Bao had been secretly following her.

But what can be done?

She would not reciprocate his feelings, so she might as well pretend not to know it. After some time, when his novelty fades, he will stop coming.

Only after escorting Zhao Jingmiao and Li Jiaojiao back to the courtyard house, did Qian Bao reluctantly leave.

"Boss, I knew you were here." The young fellow ran over, "Why didn’t you tell the brothers you were leaving?"

The young fellow felt guilty about taking over Qian Bao’s position.

The trouble was caused by him, yet it resulted in Qian Bao taking the fall, which is just so unbrotherly.

But Qian Bao said if he didn’t take over, he would still leave, and if someone else came, no one here would be able to manage.

Speaking of managing, he knew that the boss was mainly worried about that girl named Zhao Jingmiao.

"What’s there to talk about." Qian Bao said with a smile, "If she ever needs anything, help me look after her."

Qian Bao looked back in the direction of the courtyard house, "I only ask you this one favor." 𝑓𝑟ℯ𝘦𝓌𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝑐ℴ𝓂

"Alright." The young fellow nodded with red eyes.

"Look at you, such a coward." Qian Bao ruffled his hair, "You’re a boss now, don’t be such a coward in the future."

"Boss." The young fellow cried, "You’ll always be my boss."

"Do you want to be my boss now?" Qian Bao kicked him, "Hurry up and leave, you’re getting on my nerves."

"Stop following me." Qian Bao picked up his few bags, "I’m leaving."

"Couldn’t you... just stay?" The young fellow wiped his tears, "It’s okay not being the boss, the Capital City works too."

It’s not okay.

Qian Bao looked up at the sky, forcing back the tears in his eyes.

In the Capital City, he couldn’t resist the urge to see her.

If one day he couldn’t resist confessing, how would he speak to her?

Besides, she’s worked so hard; how could he bear to continue wasting away?

Go, go, when he returns, Qian Bao is determined to become someone significant before standing in front of her again.
