“You should have returned this money long ago. Are you still attempting to hold on?” Gu Zi’s tone was firm, leaving no room for negotiation.

Despite the reluctance of the elderly couple, they reluctantly handed over the 100 yuan to Gu Zi, pledging in front of the police that they wouldn’t dare to cause any further trouble.

After multiple warnings from the police, the men were finally allowed to leave. Hopefully, the scare would keep them in check for a while.

Gu Zi returned inside to resume preparing desserts. Su Li informed her about a food exhibition at the parent-child reading event scheduled for the next day.

Parents were encouraged to bring homemade or store-bought snacks to sell at the school.

The money earned could be utilized by the child as they wished – either for a toy gift bag provided by the school or as a donation to a Hope Primary School in a remote mountainous region, buying necessary books in the child’s name.

Deciding to take part in the event, Gu Zi found it meaningful. It not only allowed the child to learn about financial responsibility but also fostered a sense of ownership.

Moreover, as someone who enjoyed cooking, she welcomed the opportunity to sell delicious food on such a great platform.

At the Gong family’s city residence, Gong Zhan accompanied Lin Miao to select a new wedding dress, but her expression remained dissatisfied.

Throughout the process, she hadn’t sensed Gong Zhan’s genuine concern; it seemed he was simply going through the motions.

Observing Lin Miao’s reticence, Madam Chen, Gong Zhan’s mother, stepped in to comfort her. “Miaomiao, are you still upset with Gong Zhan? That boy can be a bit dense sometimes. Just ignore him.”

Lin Miao’s mood lightened slightly upon seeing Madam Chen trying to ease her discomfort.

But in reality, Madam Chen did not feel good about it either. In the past, Gu Zi never needed her coaxing nor caused her such trouble.

Given her status as the chief’s wife for many years, she had to maintain her dignity.

Now, she had no choice but to lower her voice and coax Lin Miao for her son.

Juggling both ends, she couldn’t afford to neglect the stability of the Gu family. Therefore, she allowed her son and Lin Miao to proceed with choosing the wedding dress, sticking to the original plan.
