Being Rongrong\'s classmate, Kang Yuan thought to himself, it\'s currently school hours. While it made sense for Rongrong to not be in school since she had already secured early admission, he wondered why her classmate was out and about as well.

He unconsciously formed a negative impression of Rongrong\'s classmate.

Rongrong, acting as if she had just discovered the Shi sisters were here, called over a waiter to let them order.

Having already filled up on coffee, the two sisters politely declined Rongrong\'s offer.

"What brings you here, Miss Shi Li?"

Shi Ruan was straightforward about her blind date situation, saying candidly, "I\'m here for a blind date, and she\'s accompanying me."

Rongrong had an expression of sudden realization - her acting skills had improved considerably, with much richer expressions now.

"Please, have a seat."

Shi Li muttered to herself, [He looks familiar, but I just can\'t place who he is right now]

This answer made Rongrong pause slightly.

Shi Li discreetly inquired about Kang Yuan\'s background, "Rongrong, is this gentleman your older brother? I\'ve never heard you mention any relatives before."

Seemingly missing the investigative tone in Shi Li\'s question, Rongrong explained, "Kang Yuan isn\'t my biological brother, but he\'s no less than one to me. We grew up together, and he\'s always taken care of younger kids like me, helping me in many ways."

[Kang Yuan, Kang Yuan]

Shi Li kept repeating this name in her mind. While it sounded extremely familiar, she still couldn\'t place his identity.

This feeling was quite frustrating.

Rongrong deliberately dropped hints to help Shi Li remember who Kang Yuan was, but it didn\'t work.

She hadn\'t intended to praise Kang Yuan, but that\'s how it came across to him. His face flushed slightly as he modestly replied, "I haven\'t helped Rongrong much at all, it\'s all her own doing."

While Rongrong typically disliked engaging in empty pleasantries, she had to continue the polite exchange to support her earlier statement.

"How can you say you haven\'t helped? I remember when I was little, whenever your family made something delicious, you\'d always bring some to our house."

Kang Yuan sighed, "That hardly counts as help."

It was just because his mother had felt sorry for her household, with only an elderly grandmother raising a young girl, so she would send him over with food whenever they made something special.

It was just a small gesture, hardly worth remembering all these years.

Shi Li remained lost in thought, still trying to figure out who this young man was.

As for Shi Ruan, no longer in a hurry to return to work, she rested her chin on her hand, watching the young people\'s modest exchange, thinking how wonderful youth was.

While Shi Li was absorbed in her own world, she suddenly noticed her screen light up with a message from Shi Ruan.

She was puzzled why her sister would text when they were sitting less than ten centimeters apart, but upon seeing the message content, she understood why it couldn\'t be said aloud with others present.

Shi Ruan (Ancestor in heartbreak - don\'t provoke): [Tell auntie to find younger blind date candidates next time, need a change of pace QAQ]

Shi Li: [....]

Honestly, looking at Shi Ruan\'s message, you\'d never guess she had just broken up and was supposedly heartbroken.

Shi Li even wondered if her sister had been wanting to break up with Ji Chunsheng for a while and just used his cheating as an excuse.

But she kept these thoughts to herself, fearing Shi Ruan might put on a tearful scene in the coffee shop.

No one noticed this small exchange between the sisters, as the other two were still engaged in their modest back-and-forth.

Shi Li almost wanted to cry out, "Fine, let\'s just say it was all your achievement!"

Rongrong also didn\'t want to dwell on this topic with Kang Yuan anymore. In her memories, he had been a kind and gentle older brother figure.

Reality differed from her memories - now she found him rather indecisive and long-winded.

Rongrong smoothly changed the subject, "Is uncle\'s business doing better now?"

Seeing Kang Yuan wearing luxury brands without visible logos, Rongrong made her guess.

Kang Yuan nodded, "It\'s going alright."

Rongrong continued, "Is auntie still as busy with work as before?"

At the mention of his mother, Kang Yuan became more talkative, "Even busier than before. She recently led a graduating class, and because several students performed exceptionally well, the school asked her to take on another graduating class. She\'s not young anymore, and her body can\'t handle such intensive work. The family suggested she stop being a homeroom teacher for graduating classes, but she won\'t listen - she\'s too strong-willed and responsible."

"My mom often talks about you at home. A couple of years ago, she mentioned you must be taking the high school entrance exam, wondering how you\'d do, though she said you\'ve always been a good student, so there was no need to worry about a small exam like that."

A small smile appeared at the corners of Rongrong\'s lips.

Shi Ruan, showing a bit of her professional habit, casually asked which school his mother taught at, thinking they might know each other.

As it turned out, it was quite a coincidence - Kang Yuan\'s mother worked at the same school as Shi Ruan.

As a new teacher, Shi Ruan wasn\'t assigned to graduating classes, so while she had heard of Kang Yuan\'s mother, they weren\'t well acquainted.

Even so, Shi Ruan found this connection interesting, remarking on what a coincidence it was.

"I never expected we\'d have such a connection."

"It really is quite a coincidence."

The coffee shop had a pleasant atmosphere, with the four of them seated by huge floor-to-ceiling windows.

Outside the windows was the shopping mall, relatively quiet on a workday with few customers.

The sky, which had been clear moments ago, suddenly turned dark with clouds, and rain began to pour down with a pattering sound.

Shi Li exclaimed, "It\'s raining!"

Rongrong turned to look outside, "Not rain - it\'s hailing."

Looking more carefully, Shi Li realized it indeed wasn\'t rain. She had assumed it was rain from the sound, but it was actually hail.

Though the hailstones weren\'t large, they were enough to send people outside scrambling.

All four watched as people outside rushed into the mall for shelter.

Rongrong\'s gaze unconsciously fell on one young man seeking shelter, and she inwardly sighed, thinking perhaps their timing wasn\'t quite right this time.

Such bad weather rarely improved anyone\'s mood. Shi Ruan murmured, "The weather these days is really quite extreme."

In this weather, the coffee shop\'s warm lighting created a cozy atmosphere.

Not long ago, there had been only one or two tables occupied.

The sudden hailstorm brought in several more customers, perhaps thinking a steaming cup of coffee would ward off the cold and provide warmth.

Rongrong\'s somewhat gloomy mood shifted when she noticed a tall young man at the ordering counter.

She rarely showed her emotions so openly, typically maintaining her composure.

Kang Yuan was the first to notice something was off with Rongrong, asking with concern, "Do you know that young man?"

What young man? Why did Rongrong keep getting involved with young men lately?

The young man had his back to everyone, but when he turned sideways after ordering, Shi Li froze.

[Isn\'t that Liang Rongrong\'s boyfriend?]

[What a small world]
