| sighed in exasperation and carried the basket as | hugged the watermelon that | had just picked in my arms. |
walked toward him and asked, "Why did you cover? Didn't you say that you were busy with work lately?"
He put Munchkin down, taking the basket and watermelon from my hands. He then said, "I knew that the fruits
here were ripe, so | cover for a few days to eat the fruits. Can't | do that?"
I nodded and said, "Yes, you can eat as much as you like. | don't mind you coming over to eat. I'm just afraid that
you won't be able to finish everything."

Everyone had nothing much to do, so we all headed downstairs.
There were plenty of rhododendron trees on both sides of the road. The flowers were in full bloom since it was
the middle of summer. Munchkin loved playing here, especially with Fred and Tina.
There was a beverage shop in the neighborhood.
Munchkin always demanded to get a drink every twe passed by, but | rarely bought any drinks for him.
However, Fred always let him get what he wanted. Munchkin would always demand deserts when Fred was here.
He did the sthis taround. Fred cout of the beverage shop with ice cream in his hands. He handed
an ice cream to Munchkin and Tina each.
After that, he handed one toas well.
| could not help but laugh and say, "You're treatingas a child.”
Munchkin licked the ice cream cautiously and raised his head to look at Fred. "Uncle Fred, why do you always buy
ice cream for my mother? My mother says that only little kids eat ice cream. Adults don’t eat it."
Fred laughed and said, "Your mother is a child like you."
Munchkin did not understand what he meant. He looked at Jerand said, "Uncle Jeris the sage as
Mommy, so he's a child as well. Why didn't you buy ice cream for him?"
Jerspat out the mouthful of water in his mouth before he could swallow it. He looked at Munchkin and said,
"Kid, I'm a man, not a child. | don't eat ice cream. I'm different from your mother. Your mother will always be a
child no matter how old she is."
Munchkin nodded like he understood what Jersaid.
Night gradually fell. The lights on both sides of the streets lit up. | could not help but be immersed in the view. It
was easy to live a simple life. Why could | not d o so in the past?
"What are you thinking about?" Jerpoked me.
| returned to my senses and noticed that Munchkin and Tina had run away into the distance. Fred was behind
both of them, so | stopped worrying and looked at Jerome. "I'm not thinking about anything."
Jerlooked at Fred, who was protecting the children by their sides, and raised his brow. "He has good looks
and an excellent personality. However, he's a little too old. Nevertheless, he’s a good choice."

| felt slightly dizzy after listening to what he said. | frowned and asked, "What are you talking about?"
He shrugged and said, "I'm looking for a man for you."
The corner of my mouth twitched as I said, "It seems like you haven't really been busy with work lately."
Jercrossed his arms in front of his chest as a serious expression formed on his face. "Actually, | think that
he's a pretty nice person. He treats you well, and he's good in all other aspects. He's taken good
care of Munchkin throughout the years. You're almost 30 now. Since you've let go of the past, you should start
planning out your life now. Find someone to keep you company. You won't be lonely after Munchkin leaves you
when he grows up."
Nobody liked listening to such words. I rolled my eyes at him and walked forward hurriedly.
However, he did not give up. He followedfrom behind and continued to nag at me. "I'm giving you beneficial
advice. In life, we always need to be looking ahead. Theo Grant is about to get engaged. You should make plans
for your future as well."
| paused and stood in the sspot in a momentary daze that lasted a few seconds. After that, | returned to my
senses and turned around to look at Jerome. "He's getting engaged?" | asked in an even tone. 1
