Aunt Zhang felt a little uneasy when she saw Zhao Aimin's expression. She knew that Zhao Aimin was a thoughtful person and he would not reveal his inner feelings easily. She walked up to Zhao Aimin and asked softly: "Aimin, what's wrong? Is there anything that worries you?"
Zhao Aimin was silent for a moment, and then said softly: "It's nothing, maybe some things at work make me feel a little stressed."

Soon, Aunt Gu spread some gossip from the side, saying that this girl Li Yunfang was cheated again. This news surprised and worried everyone in the Zhang family, because they knew that Li Yunfang was a strong and kind girl, and they didn't understand why she always suffered such blows.
Li Caifang looked at her increasingly taciturn sister and felt helpless and anxious in her heart. She knows her sister's character.
