At six in the evening, after returning to the city center, Ye Ge didn’t go straight home. Instead, he took Su Musu for a stroll through the commercial district.
Ye Ge didn't turn down the girl's kind gesture; in certain respects, Su Musu was exceptionally persistent. In the end, yielding to her insistence, Ye Ge ate the apple. He didn't really like apples much, but he found this one to be far tastier than any he had eaten before.
Ye Ge wanted to buy his mother a gift, but he had no idea what to get her. His family couldn't be called wealthy, but they lived a comfortable, middle-class life where they lacked for nothing. His mother didn't seem to need anything at all. No, that wasn't right; his mother had always wanted a grandson. But as far as that went, he couldn't fulfill that wish of hers for the time being.
