Gentle, Skillful, and Effortless (2)

Su Zhengxing was dressed like a pet dog, his mouth agape, his expression one of shock.

“We just… You’re going to leave me here to play mahjong?” His words carried a mix of emotions.

Just as he finished speaking, the doorbell rang.

Lin Qiao knew that it was Aunt Wang coming up to find her, so she quickly pulled Su Zhengxing up and pushed him into the room.

“I’m leaving now. Remember to close the door when you go!”

Then she slammed the door shut.

Su Zhengxing, who almost got his nose smashed by the door: “?”

“Xiao Lin, we agreed on 2 o’clock, and it’s already 2:15! Hurry up, or there won’t be any seats left at the activity center!”

Aunt Wang is from Xianghai. She is plump and has curly hair. She lives downstairs from Lin Qiao. Because her only daughter had married and moved to Beijing, she was worried that her daughter would be alone in a foreign land and would not be able to take care of her granddaughter. Therefore, after her husband passed away, she moved here to help her daughter take care of her child.

Aunt Wang’s granddaughter is already in elementary school this year, so she only has time to play mahjong at the community’s senior activity center on weekdays. She met Lin Qiao at the mahjong table at the senior activity center. Then, they found out that they lived on the same floor.

Heaven knows, she originally went to the activity center to participate in the after-school care program.

“Coming, coming! Sorry, Aunt Wang, I got up a little late today. Let’s go!”

Lin Qiao opened the door, changed her shoes, and was about to leave when Su Zhengxing, who was already dressed, came out of the room and said from behind, “Let’s go together.”

Aunt Wang’s eyes lit up immediately when she saw a tall, handsome young man in Lin Qiao’s house.

“Xiao Lin, is this your boyfriend?”

Lin Qiao wanted to say no, but… it seemed a bit inappropriate to turn her back on him now.

She could only bite the bullet and agree, forcing a couple of dry laughs.

“Aunt Wang, would it be convenient for me to come along? I’d like to learn how to play mahjong.”

Su Zhengxing walked over and casually put his hand on Lin Qiao’s waist, smiling broadly.

The young man was handsome, spoke pleasantly, and was polite. Aunt Wang, of course, was delighted.

“Convenient, convenient! We just happen to be short one person!”

As Aunt Wang turned and walked towards the elevator, she quietly sent a voice message on her phone, “Hey, tell Old Li not to come, okay? Xiao Lin brought her boyfriend over. Oh my, that young man is so handsome!”

Lin Qiao: “…”

The senior activity center has always been the gossip hub of the community. Every piece of gossip from the surrounding three neighborhoods passes through here. Lin Qiao knew without a doubt that her relationship status would be updated in the neighborhood matchmaker group after today. But that was fine; it saved those aunties and grandmas from trying to set her up with dates every day.

To enrich the daily lives of residents, the senior activity center offers a variety of leisure activities, including drinking tea, reading newspapers, playing chess, and playing mahjong, where everyone enjoys a relaxed and carefree time.

When Lin Qiao and her group arrived, several other aunties had already taken their seats. As soon as they saw them come in, they all waved to them with beaming smiles.
