It went smoothly and Shi Lei brought Sun Yiyi and her mother into his new house before 5:30 PM.

Shi Zhongping and Shi Lei’s mother welcomed them with smiles and Shi Zhongping spoke, “Look at my legs. It’s too inconvenient or I would’ve welcomed you two downstairs.”

Sun Yiyi’s mother was flattered, “Old Shi, please don’t say that… Aiya, I can’t call you that anymore. You’are President Shi. We feel bad for disturbing your family during the New Year already.”

Shi Lei’s mother rolled her eyes, “What president? He’s not officially the president yet. Those people in the factory need to call him President Shi, but when we are at home, he’s Old Shi.”

Shi Zhongping also smiled, “Exactly. We’ve always been neighbors and only stopped contacting in the past two years, but we always had a good relationship. Now that our children are grown up and they… Haha, we will be a family from now on. We are relatives and you should call me Old Shi.”

Sun Yiyi’s mother finally felt relieved at Shi Zhongping’s words. Without knowing why she felt like she was going to cry.

She was blinded when she sold the house and followed that man to Wudong, but she didn’t think that… She always wanted to come back to Runzhou as she had many close friends and old colleges here. They should all be able to take care of her, but she couldn’t bear to lose face as she thought that they would scorn her. It was fine if she was the only one, but she didn’t want Sun Yiyi to be laughed at too.

Now that she was back, she didn’t expect that Shi Zhongping’s family would still treat her like a good friend and good neighbors. He even mentioned Shi Lei and Sun Yiyi and seemed happy about it. The Shi family was no longer the same as before. Not to mention that Shi Lei had already achieved so much in Wudong, even Shi Zhongping himself became the union president of Da Hua Electronics. They lived in a house with three bedrooms and two living rooms which was only for leaders. But he didn’t look down on her at all and he was so welcoming…

Sun Yiyi’s mother couldn’t help but weep.

“Aiyo, why are you crying, sister? Shitou, hurry up and grab a towel for your aunt. There are two new towels in the bathroom. You can use either one!” Shi Lei’s mother quickly helped Sun Yiyi’s mother to the couch and Shi Lei quickly went to fetch the towel.

Shi Zhongping knew that the two women had a lot to talk about and commanded Shi Lei, “Shitou, take Yiyi to their room and see if she needs anything else. Go buy it quickly if there’s anything she needs. Then, Yiyi can take a break. Although it’s not far, it’s tiring. Do you want to shower first? Shitou will prepare it for you.”

“Thank you, Uncle Shi. I’m not tired. Brother Shitou is a good driver.”

“Haha, this girl is as shy as she was before. We’ll be a family from now on. In a few years’ time, you will have to change and call me Dad. There’s no need to be shy with your father. Alright, go in and see if you need anything else. Shitou’ll go buy it for you.”

Sun Yiyi blushed as she thanked Shi Zhongping while Shi Lei held her hand and took her to her room.

Shi Lei’s mother and Sun Yiyi’s mother sat on the couch together. These good sisters haven’t seen each other for a few years and they held each other’s hands as they talked about their encounters in the past years. They sighed and they laughed. The barrier created over the time that passed quickly vanished and they were like close sisters who lived right next to each other.

Shi Lei sat down with Sun Yiyi for a while before Sun Yiyi took a shower. Shi Lei’s mother and Sun Yiyi’s mother went to the kitchen together and quickly cooked food for the table.

“Come come come, let’s eat. We haven’t seen each other for at least two years, right? Don’t think about the past. I heard from Shitou that you are doing well in Wudong. Shitou is in Wudong anyway and Yiyi is going to university. There’s no point for you to come back. Of course, if you want to, we will welcome you anytime. We are happy together so let’s drink a little. This is a longed reunion that we need to celebrate. Don’t drink that much though,” Shi Zhongping picked up the bottle of alcohol on the table.

Sun Yiyi’s mother quickly took over it. She filled Shi Zhongping’s glass first and then Shi Lei’s mother’s before filling her own.

Shi Lei didn’t let Sun Yiyi’s mother pour it for him. He took it from her, “Yiyi will drink a little too. We are happy!” Shitou declared and no one opposed it.

Then, Sun Yiyi’s mother rose her glass and she was on the verge of tears, “Brother, sister, we have really met good people. I’ve always been scared that people will isolate and laugh at us behind our backs when we come back, but I never thought that your family would still treat us so well. I was sick before and Shitou paid for it. Yiyi and I don’t know how to thank your family. Yiyi, come, a toast to your uncle and aunt with me.”

Sun Yiyi stood up tamely and raised the glass in her hands.

Shi Zhongping quickly supported the table and stood on one leg. Shi Lei’s mother used one hand to help him and picked up the glass with the other.

Shi Lei naturally stood up as five glasses touched each other.

Shi Lei felt satisfied but he couldn’t help but feel shameful as he didn’t know what Wei Xingyue was up to. Even if he knew that she wasn’t going to be in trouble, for now, he couldn’t feel relieved.

After dinner, the parents talked in the living room and Shi Lei and Sun Yiyi were chased out.

Shi Lei knew that his parents wanted to talk to Sun Yiyi’s mother about them two. Hence, he held Sun Yiyi’s petite hands, drove to the bank of the river, and walked there.

When they went back, there was no one in the living room. Shi Lei watched Sun Yiyi go back to her room and he returned to his own.

It wasn’t late and he couldn’t fall asleep. Even when he laid in bed, Shi Lei began to think about the Lotus Tongue Card again.

He couldn’t think of an appropriate way to use it no matter how hard he tried. He eventually gave up and picked up his phone. He didn’t dare to touch the Lotus Tongue app as it was going to be treated as used if he did. But there was a new Intimacy Card app which could be used twice a month and Shi Lei looked at it.

After Shi Lei opened the app, Shi Lei saw a simple home page. There was a connection sign in the middle with a default “I” on the left side. The right side of the sign was something similar to a search bar for typing in the target’s app. Of course, there was a small camera icon on the side as it could be paired with taking photos.

Shi Lei knew that if he typed in the target’s name in the search bar, there would be multiple people with the same name. It was very likely that it would ask him to enter more detailed information. Below that, there was a round confirm button.

There wasn’t anything special as it was only for checking the level of intimacy. After he typed in the name and hit the confirm button, a number would be generated and that number would represent the level of intimacy on a scale of one to a hundred.

Shi Lei thought that there was nothing else and was about to exit the page, but he suddenly saw a small sign on the top right corner. It was three lines and he thought that it represented a menu.

He clicked on it and it was a drop-down menu with three options on it.

The first was the rules. The second was the level of match. The third contained detailed rules for the level of intimacy.

Oh? Was it multi-functional?

Shi Lei looked at the rules and it was similar to what he imagined. It introduced how to use it and it stated that if there were multiple with the same name, he would be asked to enter more detailed information such as gender and age. At the same time, it suggested that the best was to use the camera function.

The level of the match was simple. It introduced the different types of intimacy between people, such as with parents or couples. There were corresponding values for information in order to prevent wasting chances.

Shi Lei clicked open the detailed rules of the level of intimacy…
