“Hmm.” Zuko nodded after a moment. “You’re right…”

For some reason, Lina’s face flashed across his mind at that moment. He recalled sitting together with the Jenners

for meals. Jesse, Melissa, and Dave looked like a family because Dave’s appearance combined the characteristics of

his parents, but Lina was different.

It was often said that daughters resembled their fathers more, but this law seemed ineffective in Jesse and Lina’s

case.

“Hey, bro?” Toph did not hear Zuko’s voice for a while and grew concerned. “What are you doing over there?”

“Oh, nothing,” replied Zuko. “I’m almost home. Let’s end here. You should rest too.”

“Well, I’m already awake. Let’s chat for a while more!” Toph lazily suggested, “You live alone in a big villa, and

there’s no one else around. How about we have a video call?”

“I don’t want to chat with you!” Zuko emphasized. “I don’t live in a villa, and… people at home are asleep. I don’t

want to wake them up!”

“What?” Toph suddenly became fully awake. “People at home?”

“Yeah, people at home… What’s the big deal?”

Zuko had already entered the alley and came to the entryway as he spoke.

As Toph exclaimed, Zuko mercilessly hung up and turned his phone off directly. He chuckled lightly and tiptoed into

the house. His first task was to quietly go upstairs and take a look at her.

Because of the hot weather, Lina rarely closed the door completely when she slept, always leaving a small gap.

Zuko stood outside, peeking inside through the gap.

He saw Lina sleeping soundly and noticed that she still kept the banknote with her name on it, the one he had

drawn, by her pillow. He also saw her occasionally turning over with a smile on her face.

A sudden thought flashed through Zuko’s mind, and he could not help but smile along with her.

He never expected that he would one day linger in a foreign city, and the reason for him staying there would be a

moment of heart-pounding attraction.

…

Jesse had accidentally hurt his waist, and Melissa had to put everything aside to scold him for being useless while

taking care of his daily needs.

There were also two children in the house who needed to go to school, so the responsibility of running the small

supermarket was fully entrusted to Zuko.

Zuko had multiple roles, including moving and unloading goods, organizing the shelves, counting the inventory, and

handling the cash register.

He also had to escort Lina to the university before opening the supermarket and temporarily close it to pick her up

at a certain time in the afternoon.

Despite all this, he managed to handle each task meticulously and never made a mistake with the accounts.

After Melissa saw his well-kept records, she began to praise him even more.

“Zeke not only has a way with household chores but also keeps such good records! Look at these clear and precise

account entries, even calculating to the decimal point!

“You never attended college, right, Zeke? How come you’re so professional at this?

“Oh, I understand now. When you used to make fake IDs for people, you must’ve charged, right? Look at this. I’ve

always said you’re a talented techie, and it’s true!”

Zuko felt embarrassed but managed to squeeze out a few words with a forced smile, “Auntie, you’re too kind.”

“I’m not flattering you!” Melissa could not stop smiling. “Zeke, you have a clear mind! Uh, I suggest that when you

and Lina start your own little family in the future, let her manage the money, and you can keep track of the

accounts. When you need money, just tell Lina and then record it yourself. Lina can allocate the funds to you… This

way, you two can supervise each other! How does that sound?”

Zuko was taken aback for a moment.

Did this mean that when he was with Lina in the future, she would know every detail of their spending?

What kind of mutual supervision was this?

Zuko laughed inside and looked at Melissa as he said softly, “Auntie, why don’t you just have Lina give me $70 every

month?”

“$70?” Melissa frowned. “Isn’t that… too little?! Which family man’s so miserable nowadays that he only has $70

pocket money?”
