Gu Qingqing slowed down her eating and raised her amber eyes to look at Minina, who was sitting opposite her and giving her a stern look.

"I'm sorry, I can't gain weight no matter how much I eat. My eldest brother often cooks delicious food for me, my second brother takes me to eat delicious food everywhere, and my third brother buys me a lot of delicious desserts. But even though I eat every day, I still don't gain weight and become a ball."

She has a good physique and exercises a lot, so she doesn't gain much weight even though she eats a lot of desserts every day.

"Hmph! I don't believe you!" How can you eat desserts without gaining weight?

Minina refused to believe that she had already eaten so many desserts today and that she would have to increase her exercise tonight to lose weight.

Otherwise, after one night, the dessert she ate would turn into meat in her belly.

"I'm telling the truth, I just can't gain weight no matter what I eat. There's nothing you can do about being envious and jealous." Gu Qingqing didn't mind drawing even more hatred from Minina.

Anyway, the other person won't like me.

"Hmph!" How can there be such a despicable person?

Minina is jealous of people who can eat desserts without gaining weight, because she gains weight quickly and has to eat only a little bit of dessert every month according to a weight loss standard.

She's already eaten too much dessert today; if she eats any more, she'll really become a big fat person.

Fu Jue and Thorne were talking in hushed tones, while Muse was drinking coffee and playing on her phone.

Everything was peaceful enough.

Three handsome men sitting quietly together are quite a sight to behold.

Gu Qingqing and Minina chatted back and forth, and eventually the conversation turned to food and travel.

Instead of arguing or fighting, they acted as if they had known each other for a long time.

Thorne wanted to go to the toilet and tried to take Fu Jue with him, but was refused.

"No, you go! Thorne, I need to take care of Qingqing."

"Are you afraid they'll eat her?" Thorne admired Fu Jue for being willing to be a lapdog for a woman he liked.

"What do you think?" Fu Jue was just not at ease, a million times uneasy.

Who knows if Minina will bully him as soon as he leaves?

"Master Fu, you go ahead! I can take care of myself." Gu Qingqing could tell that Thorne had something important to discuss with Fu Jue and was using the excuse of going to the restroom, so she didn't want to disturb him.

"Qingqing, I'm worried about leaving you here alone."

"Master Fu, it's alright, I can take care of myself." Gu Qingqing knew he was worried that she would be bullied by Minina.

But she's not a child anymore. If she's bullied once, or twice, she won't be so foolish a third time.

"Fu, what kind of look is that? Don't you trust us?" Minina glanced at him, then lowered her head to eat her dessert.

"Alright, Qingqing, wait for me for a few minutes, I'll be back soon." Fu Jue knew that Thorne had something important to tell him, and it wasn't appropriate to say it in front of everyone.

Gu Qingqing nodded, firmly believing that she should not be a burden to him.

Watching Fu Jue walk away, she still felt a little down and sad.

Fu Jue and Thorne left together. A few seconds later, Minina put down her dessert and spoon and smiled triumphantly at Gu Qingqing.

"Gu Qingqing, do you have a boyfriend?"

The question was asked so suddenly, and it involved a topic about privacy.

Gu Qingqing shook her head. She didn't have a boyfriend before transmigrating into the book, and she still doesn't have one after transmigrating.

She has high standards; she wants a tall, rich, and handsome man who will pamper and love her.

The men outside were simply not good enough for her.

She didn't want to settle, and she didn't want to become casual.

"Luckily not, otherwise your boyfriend would have felt cheated on if he saw you and Fu being so intimate, wouldn't he have thought you were the one who cheated on him?"

Minina's lips curled into a sarcastic smile.

Gu Qingqing froze, her brows furrowing.

Wearing a green hat?

How could that be?

There's nothing between her and Master Fu. She's his sworn brother, and it's normal for them to have some intimate behavior when he takes care of her.

"Minina, what nonsense are you talking about? My relationship with Master Fu is perfectly normal, okay? Don't brothers always take better care of their sisters?"

"Normal? Gu Qingqing, you're ridiculous. It's true that brothers tend to take better care of their sisters, but you're just Fu's adopted sister. If he takes such close care of you, wouldn't outsiders think you're a couple?"

Minina picked up her teacup, took two or three sips, and then put it down, giving Gu Qingqing a cold laugh.

"Am I right, Muse?"

"Hmm." Muse, who had been called out by Minina, sat up straight, raised her lazy eyes, and looked at Gu Qingqing casually.

"When I saw you two being so close this morning, I thought you were dating, but it turns out you're just sworn brothers and sisters. Does that mean you're lovers in private, even though you appear to be sworn brothers and sisters?"

"Muse, you're talking nonsense! Fu Ye and I aren't what you think. He likes younger sisters, that's why he recognized me as his adopted sister. Isn't it normal for him to be nicer and closer to me? I think you're just jealous of me."

He was jealous that I received all his attention and care.

Gu Qingqing was furious at what the two of them were saying.

The thought of them slandering her and Master Fu filled her with both anger and sadness.

"Hahaha—" Muse slapped the table and laughed loudly.

"What are you laughing at? Don't laugh." Gu Qingqing felt that he was mocking her, but she didn't know in what way.

“I’m going to laugh, what can you do about it? Minina, how come Fu likes Gu Qingqing, who’s so stupid?” Muse laughed louder and louder, pulling Minina into his camp to deal with Gu Qingqing.

"Yeah, Fu really has terrible taste. I don't know why he likes her but won't like me? Is it because she's younger than me?"
