Capítulo 166: Self-Study

Lu Chen noticed the WeChat message from his mother and wondered how she knew he was here. He turned around, scanning the area. Aside from the Fang family's parents, there was no one he recognized. Odd!

[Mom, I'll be back in a while. Don't be upset.] Lu Chen hadn't wanted to come either. His presence was solely to accompany Fang Jiayi, feeling guilty otherwise.

Fang Jiayi, being nearby, caught sight of the message on his phone screen. Although secretly angered, she concealed it and feigned gentleness, saying, "Did Auntie rush you? Why don't you go back first? I'll be fine."

Turning around, Lu Chen saw the clear and innocent look in her eyes. He couldn't bear to see her like this.

"Brother Lu Chen, you should head back first. Don't make Auntie sad. She only has one son," Fang Jiayi expressed considerately. "Regardless of what she thinks of me, as a mother, she undoubtedly wants her son to find a good girl, start a family, and live happily."
