Wu Nian's eyebrows slightly furrowed, but the displeasure in his eyes quickly dissipated.
Wu Nian said calmly, "There's no need to trouble you. My friend really likes Tongtong, and Tongtong likes her too. I'm at ease with Tongtong being with her."
Lin Min froze for a moment, and then her face turned red, not out of embarrassment, but out of awkwardness.
What Wu Nian was clearly saying was that in his mind, his friend was not an outsider, but she, this neighbor, was the outsider.
Tears quickly welled up in Lin Min's eyes. She lowered her head and hurriedly took out the things she bought to put them in the fridge.
She felt aggrieved. Every day she racks her brain thinking of how to make Wu Nian and his daughter happy, making various dishes, cleaning the house diligently. Watching them eat the meals she cooked, wearing the clothes she washed, living in the clean and tidy home she organized, Lin Min felt a tremendous sense of accomplishment.
