Hearing Song’s mother naturally say “our Xiaotang,” Fu Xiaotang’s heart warmed. Song Ying was also pleased, about to add something when she noticed someone standing nearby, seemingly having watched them for a while. Song Ying was momentarily stunned, “Cheng Yu, when did you arrive?” “I’ve been here for a while. Today is Li’s big day, I had to come to help, didn’t I?” Cheng Yu smiled, greeting Song’s mother first, “Auntie, long time no see. I’ve been busy helping Li recently, so I haven’t had the chance to visit.” Song’s mother nodded with a smile, though she remembered Cheng Yu’s declaration of love for Fu Xiaotang and his intent to compete with Song Li, leaving a slight grudge. However, she still cherished Cheng Yu like a son. “No worries, I’m not that old, no need for constant visits.” After a brief chat with Song’s mother, Cheng Yu, noticing Fu Xiaotang trying to slip away, clearly said, “Xiaotang, you look beautiful today.” He deliberately called her Xiaotang instead of Xiao Fu. Fu Xiaotang had to turn back, nodding to Cheng Yu. Honestly, she didn’t harbor much resentment towards him anymore, especially after understanding his feelings for her at his home, though she couldn’t reciprocate. “Thank you,” she said softly. Although they had known each other for a while, they had never really interacted normally.
