Nonetheless, Zhao Ying insisted that Li Ran should eat at least a little bit.

The meal was ready after a short while.

It was a simple dish of cabbages. Zhao Ying had mixed the cabbages with some vinegar. A couple of the cabbages’ leaves had turned yellow, but Zhao Ying did not want to throw them away.

Besides, they were still edible.

“This is great. It’s been such a long time since I felt so cozy,” praised Li Ran.

Zhao Ying appreciated what Li Ran said. She took out a cucumber and washed it. After that, she sliced and placed it on the plate.

“Yes, I’ve never been so sick of noodles and bread in my life.”

Gu Zhao chuckled.

“Zhao Zhao can never get tired of noodles.”

Li Ran patted Gu Zhao’s head. She smiled and said, “I’ll bring you some noodles next time.”

“Thank you, sister Li Ran!”

Zhao Ying was smiling as well.

Although the dishes she had made were simple, she was very satisfied.

She passed a slice of cucumber to Gu Zhao and another to Li Ran.

Then, the rest were reserved for herself and Gu Jin.

Li Ran noticed the situation and quickly refused.

“Thank you, but I’ve had enough.”

“You gave us your steamed bun, so what have you eaten? Don’t worry about us.”

Li Ran shook her head. She could not possibly tell Zhao Ying that Lin Nan had arranged a special meal for her.

So, she changed the topic.

“I passed by the other day and saw you chatting with a couple. Were they your neighbors?

“No, they live on the other side.”

Zhao Ying looked a little conflicted.

“I see…”

Li Ran nodded twice.

She was still thinking of a proper way to break the news.

It was then Zhao Ying sighed and said, “Actually, they asked me something weird. You won’t believe how ridiculous it is.”

Li Ran moved closer to Zhao Ying.

She knew that Zhao Ying did not want to discuss the matter in a straightforward manner.

“I have a hunch what it’s about because I overheard them talking before. Did you comply?”

Zhao Ying’s eyes widened and she immediately said loudly, “Of course not! They pestered us for a while before finally giving up.”

“Good. I’m glad that they did not do anything to harm you. If they did, you have to expose them. I came here because I wanted to warn you about them.”

Li Ran smiled helplessly. She did not expect the couple to have already made their move.

Zhao Ying smiled bitterly.

“They were a little unreasonable, but fortunately, nothing bad happened. At first, we were just having a normal conversation, but it took a turn and shocked us.”

Just as Zhao Ying finished speaking, a knock came from the door.

Zhao Ying looked at Li Ran apologetically. Then, she walked towards the door and asked, “Who is it?”

“Honey, it’s me.”

After confirming that it was Gu Jin, Zhao Ying opened the door.

Gu Jin walked in with a high spirit. He was surprised to see Li Ran.

“Li Ran, that friend of yours is so nice. He gave me an easy and high-paying job.”

“That’s great! You can properly support your family now. Hahahaha.”

Gu Jin and Zhao Ying smiled.

“Alright, that’s all I wanted to talk about. If someone bullies you, tell me. Oh, and the supplies we obtained last time were kept in a storage room. If you need anything, come and get the keys from me,” said Li Ran.

“Okay!”

Zhao Ying said gratefully.

“I won’t disturb you guys anymore. Take care!”

With that being said, Li Ran left. She still had another business to attend to!

Zhao Ying then told Gu Jin what they were talking about.

“Li Ran is such a kind person. It’s so reassuring to have her as a friend,” said Gu Jin.

“Yea, it’s a good thing that we get along.”

Zhao Ying was very happy. She handed another slice of cucumber to Gu Zhao and asked, “Zhao Zhao, do you still want to eat more cucumbers?”

“No. I want to eat pickled vegetables!”

They began to eat.

Zhao Ying split the steamed bun that Li Ran had given her into two.. Then, she shared it with her husband and son.
