Fu Mingxue suddenly remembered something and immediately pulled a wad of cash from her pocket.
"Here’s a thousand. Take it."
With her leaving, the family might need the money.
"No need for so much. I’ll just take two hundred; that’s more than enough. If it’s not enough, Mom has some."
Fu Mingxue: ...?
’You really are a mama’s boy.’
’How old is he? And he’s still got his eye on her money.’
Just then, Qin Wenhao counted out two hundred and was about to give the rest back to his wife.
"Don’t give it to me. Just give the rest to my mom."
"—Alright then." This time, Qin Wenhao didn’t refuse.
After all, his mother-in-law was running the household. With his wife leaving, she would be the one covering all the family’s expenses.
So, his mother-in-law needed to have money on hand.
When Fu Mingxue came out, she saw her mom talking to Chang Qingze.
"Group Leader Chang."
When she called out, Chang Qingze quickly responded, "Group Leader Fu, we can leave now."
"Mingxue, your group leader is a really nice man. And he lives around here, too."
Mrs. Fu was delighted. She assumed the older man, Chang Qingze, was her daughter’s direct superior.
Most importantly, this Group Leader Chang also lived nearby.
The Chang family’s home... it didn’t seem to be too far away.
Just at the other end of the lane.
Chang Qingze immediately realized that Mrs. Fu had misunderstood.
He immediately clarified, "Group Leader Fu is our group leader. I’m the deputy."
Mrs. Fu: ...?
’Huh? What did he mean by that?’
’Was he saying her daughter was the leader?’
This left her completely baffled.
Fu Mingxue, however, had no intention of explaining it to her mom just then.
"Mom, I’m heading out now."
"Bye-bye, Mommy!" The two children couldn’t bear to see their mother go.
