“That’s fine, honestly. It’s all the same since I get to thank you now.” Shi Fang waved.

“You’re most welcome, but I didn’t do anything.”

“I’ve been wondering who you were these past few years,” Shi Fang said, “l didn’t even know your name or how to find you, and thank you. Still, I’m glad

I get to see you now.” Tao Dayong chuckled. “I’m glad too.”

‘Yeah, I’m thrilled.’

He was calm before he came and did not want his parents to worry about him anymore. However, he became pretty happy after meeting and talking to Shi Fang. He subconsciously felt relaxed whenever he spoke to her.

Moreover, his heart pounded as they spoke. The two thought of the past and felt assured and not as nervous as they were initially.

After breaking the ice, Shi Fang gradually became more talkative while Tao

Dayong listened attentively and occasionally responded to her. Tao Dayong

was usually a man of few words, but he seemed to have opened up more after a while.

Shi Fang said, “l heard you’re quite famous now, Dayong. Everyone is talking about the exquisite bottles you made. I think they’re beautiful, too.”

Tao Dayong had much to say when it came to making ceramic. “I didn’t know how to make it initially. I just thought about it constantly and tried it over and over again. 1 just wanted to succeed.”

He also told Shi Fang about his persistence during that period, and she looked at him with admiration. “You’re amazing, Dayong. I wouldn’t even know how to make such a thing if it were me. 1 only know some needlework.”

Shi Fang talked more about the embroidery shop matters immediately after. Just like that, the two had a deeper understanding of each other. They resembled long-lost friends with a sense of familiarity when facing each other.

They would say things they were usually unwilling to say. No one had ever praised Tao Dayong like this in the past, no matter how much he accomplished.

However, Shi Fang would look at him encouragingly with a worshipful gaze. It made him feel like his entire body was full of strength. It felt utterly new and rejuvenating to him.

The two talked inside for a long time, and their parents smiled. The fact that the two could talk for that long meant they had things in common and were quite willing to communicate.

Then the two mothers quietly peeked through the crack in the door. When they saw their children laughing and talking, they could not help but feel happy. Then Miss Li and Mrs. Shi also began to chat.

The two ladies were friendly when they talked. After all, they were considerate women. Mrs. Shi said, “Shi Fang is a good child. I’ve already told her to be dutiful to her future in-laws and be considerate of her future husband.’

Miss Li smiled when she heard that. She said smilingly, “My Dayong knows how to dote on his partner. I’ve already said that Shi Fang is like the daughter I’ve always wanted. My two sons will treat her well in the future.

“Besides, my family won’t impose harsh rules on your daughter, so she can visit you whenever she wants. Shi Fang’s younger siblings will be like Dayongs younger siblings too.” Miss Li’s words were clear.

Mrs. Shi felt even happier, saying, “Although my family is just ordinary, we will get our daughter more dowries.”

Miss Li said, “The money my husband and I saved belongs to our sons, and we’ll only give Dayong and Shi Fang more, not less. That’s our show of sincerity.”

The two ladies only said heartfelt words. They were honest people and even started to call each other sisters.

Shi Fang and Tao Dayong talked for an extended amount of time inside. As the two spoke, a smile appeared on the latter’s face. His eyes lit up whenever he looked at Shi Fang smilingly.

It had been a while since he last smiled, and the rest of his family felt he was too calm and reserved. If they saw him now, they would be astonished.

The family would never expect the usually reserved Tao Dayong to have such a pure and innocent smile. The young couple could not help but smile and laugh whenever they looked at each other.

Shi Fang also realized she felt like talking more whenever she was around him. She was usually not talkative but had endless things to say to Tao Dayong.

Shi Fang felt she could share many things with him, so she told him everything she did at home and in the embroidery shop. Of course, she did not reveal anything the embroidery shop did not allow her to.

Tao Dayong listened with great interest.

He spent every day at the pottery workshop studying how to make the most beautiful ceramic items and rarely contacted the outside world. He only knew about the embroidery shop but did not know what the employees did there, not to mention sweaters, school bags, duvets, and jackets.

If he knew that down jackets and duvets could keep one warm during the winter, he would want to buy them for his family. Then his family would feel much warmer at night whenever they slept.

Tao Dayong thought about it and hesitantly said, “The weather is colder now because of winter, so you should wear more clothes to stay warm.”

He did not know if that was appropriate, but he said it anyway because it was what he thought about.

Shi Fang smiled. “My mother just made duvets for my siblings and me this winter. She used cotton to make them so they felt nice and warm. Don’t worry.

I won’t catch a cold. You should wear more too, and don’t overwork yourself.” She spoke softly. She was worried Tao Dayong would get exhausted and burned out from making porcelain all day.

Tao Dayong felt a warmth in his heart when he heard Shi Fangs concerns.

After all, no one had ever said such words or shown such concern toward him. He had grown accustomed to caring about others and became used to giving.

It turned out that being cared for by others made one feel warm inside.

“Yes, don’t worry. I won’t overwork myself and will rest whenever it gets dark.

Then I can sleep well at home.”

After some thought, Shi Fang asked, “W-What do you like to eat most?”

She wanted to know his preferences to make him his favorite food whenever possible.

Tao Dayong replied, “l like everything, to be honest. It’ll be good as long as I can eat my fill.”

After a pause, he added, “You should eat more, too. You must nourish yourself, okay?”

He looked at Shi Fang and thought she was too thin, which made his heart ache. ‘I’ll make her more food if she stays with my family and me.’

With that thought in mind, Tao Dayong realized something, and his face reddened before immediately lowering his head.

Shi Fang responded in a low voice, “Y-Yeah, I’ll eat more.”

The young couple’s hearts seemed to get closer the more they chatted. Nieanwhile, the matchmaker noticed it was almost time for lunch and checked on the young couple.

However, the young couple felt somewhat unsatisfied with their limited time together when they saw Miss Li, Mrs. Shi, and the matchmaker enter the room.

Miss Li said smilingly, “Dayong, let’s go home for lunch. You can continue having a good chat with Miss Shi Fang later.”

Mrs. Shi added, “Since Dayong saved my Shi Fang back then, we can consider him our benefactor. He can come to our house whenever he’s free to visit.’

Miss Li hurriedly added, “That’s for sure. 1 liked Shi Fang the moment I saw her. She’s just like the daughter I never had.”

Tao Dayong and Shi Fang felt even more embarrassed as the two ladies chatted and laughed. After everyone left, Miss Li asked Tao Dayong what his impression of Shi Fang was..
