"It’s nothing, just a side task."

"Yeah, no big deal, we’re all good friends here," Xiao Ruawen also added, patting her chest.

"What are we going to do now, Brother Qing Fan?" Lin Wanning asked after helping him move the stool back inside.

Xu Qingfan glanced at his wristwatch, "It’s almost five-thirty already, what else can we do but go home to our moms."

"What? It’s that late already? I need to get home!" Xiao Ruawen exclaimed in surprise upon hearing the time.
