Back at the Gu residence, Gu Qingqing and the three Gu brothers washed and chopped vegetables together, preparing more than a dozen plates of side dishes for hot pot.

Because Gu Mu couldn't eat spicy food, she specially prepared a divided hot pot for him to eat chicken soup hot pot.

As dusk fell and the sun began to set in the west, the sky was bathed in a red glow.

Tomorrow will surely be another rare day of good weather, just like today.

In the understated yet luxurious Gu residence, the restaurant is bustling with activity. On the table, a hot pot with two separate broths is steaming, the soup bubbling and bubbling, and the air is filled with the rich aroma of spicy beef tallow.

"Come on, let's have a drink!" Gu Qingqing opened a few cans of beer and handed them to Gu Jin and the other two, raising her own beer.

How can you have hot pot without beer?

Hahaha--

Fu Jue isn't here tonight, so she's definitely going to drink a couple more bottles.

"I wish our little Qingqing all the best in winning all the trophies." Gu Mu raised his beer to hers and looked at her pretty face.

He can't wait to attend the Starlight Awards ceremony in ten days.

I wanted to see her wearing a bright red evening gown, the presenter calling her name, and her long train trailing behind her as she walked arm in arm with him onto the stage to receive several trophies from the presenter.

It sounds wonderful.

"I wish Qingqing a successful start." Gu Jin raised his beer can and gently tapped it against her beer, raising an eyebrow and smiling at her with tenderness in his eyes.

Gu En also touched her beer can and said with a smile, "I wish Qingqing endless glory and eternal youth and beauty."

"Hehehe... Thank you, eldest brother, second brother, and third brother. Actually, I'm already very happy to be able to participate. As for whether I can win a trophy, I don't care."

Gu Qingqing's thoughts were simple, and she didn't insist on anything.

Because she never cared.

She just wanted to go to the awards ceremony and experience the feeling of being surrounded by stars.

"Silly girl, having a few trophies is like gilding your resume." Gu Mu implied that gilding her resume would silence outsiders who said she wasn't worthy of being Fu Jue's girlfriend.

The matter of An Susu has come to an end in the past two days, but some netizens have started to harass Gu Qingqing, saying that she is not good enough for Fu Jue.

Gu Mu was furious at the time. He uploaded photos of the gifts Fu Jue gave her, which were all expensive jewelry and the Fu family's heirloom.

He also uploaded her grades and awards from elementary school to university, as well as videos of her playing the piano, which garnered support and likes from his tens of millions of fans.

Gu Qingqing instantly understood Gu Mu's meaning, and she smiled helplessly.

She wouldn't care about the irrelevant comments from netizens, because if Fu Jue saw them, he would only get angrier, block those haters, delete their comments, and even report them to the website to delete their accounts.

He has many tricks up his sleeve. These past two days, although he's abroad, his heart is with her. He's busy with work, but he's also worried about this online relationship.

He really suffered.

"Qingqing, after you've eaten, let's write your acceptance speech together," Gu En suggested.

Gu Mu nodded in agreement: "Yes! We need to help Qingqing write two or three acceptance speeches."

He's really good at writing these things; he's won so many awards that his hands cramp up. I'll definitely help her write a unique and touching acceptance speech later.

Gu Qingqing was speechless. It was normal to prepare an acceptance speech in advance, but whether she would even win the award was still unknown. And since she had actually received the trophy on the spot, wouldn't it have been enough for her to just say a few words like "Thank you to the director, thank you to the behind-the-scenes staff, thank you everyone"?

"Alright! Write whatever you want, but I won't write anything down, nor will I memorize it. I'll just glance at it at most. I'm hungry, go ahead and eat!" She could only go along with them, not wanting to hurt their feelings.

She dislikes memorizing and studying the most; at most, she can only glance at something and remember it.

"Don't worry! Leave it to us, we guarantee to write two deeply moving acceptance speeches," Gu Mu assured him, patting his chest.

Gu Qingqing picked up her chopsticks, took a slice of mutton roll, placed it in the chicken soup hot pot, cooked it for three seconds, and then put it in Gu Mu's bowl.

"Second brother, you eat! You've gotten so thin."

"Thank you, Qingqing, hehehe." He chuckled foolishly, thinking that it was a good thing that he had lost weight, as she was now paying more attention to and caring for him.

Gu En was dissatisfied and a little jealous. "Qingqing, I've lost weight too."

He looked at her pitifully, like a little dog begging for food.

"How could I forget Third Brother? This is your favorite food." Gu Qingqing picked up a slice of tripe, cooked it, and put it in his bowl.

"Thank you, Qingqing, you're so good to Third Brother." Gu En was so moved that her eyes welled up with tears. She picked up the hot tripe, blew on it to cool it down, and couldn't wait to eat it.

"Delicious, so delicious! The texture is just right. Qingqing, your cooking is amazing!" He gave her a thumbs up, showering her with compliments.

"Hahaha—" Gu Qingqing threw her head back and laughed heartily. Gu En actually said that she was a good cook.

That's hilarious!

They're pretty good at making hot pot.

They didn't dare eat the rest of the cooked food.

I'm afraid they'll be poisoned.

Gu Qingqing also cooked a slice of beef roll for Gu Jin. It was in chicken soup. He was the president of the Gu Group and had to talk a lot and meet guests every day, so he couldn't eat anything too spicy, as it would be bad for his throat.

After Gu Jin finished the beef roll she had given him, he also cooked a slice of beef roll for her, in her favorite spicy and numbing flavor.

Just as the four of them were enjoying their meal, a person suddenly rushed into the restaurant.

"Qingqing—"

"I'm back!"

Standing at the restaurant entrance, Fu Jue opened his arms to hug Gu Qingqing, only to see her having hot pot with the three Gu brothers, a very heartwarming scene.

They got back before him?

He was the last to find out she had received a Starlight Awards nomination, and he even bought a bouquet of flowers on the way to surprise her.

As it turned out, all four of them were already celebrating with hot pot.

"Jue, you're back! Come and have some hot pot." Turning around and seeing Fu Jue return, Gu Qingqing gave him a sweet smile.

"Qingqing, why didn't you call me back sooner?" Fu Jue moved over to her side, dissatisfied that she hadn't called him back earlier.

He wanted to get to her side as soon as possible and share her happiness.

"It's not a big deal. You were probably still on the plane at the time. Do you think you can shorten a flight that takes more than ten hours by half?"

Gu Qingqing blew on the freshly cooked beef rolls to cool them down before holding them to Fu Jue's lips. "Eat up! You must be hungry too."

With food and her comfort, he felt better.

Gu Mu was unwilling to leave his seat.

Gu En had no choice but to give up her seat to Fu Jue.

He had no choice but to back down; Gu Jin and Fu Jue were giving him daggers in the eyes.

Those two are so mean; they ganged up on him.

Unfortunately, he was the youngest and weakest among them, so he had no choice but to obey.

"Qingqing, congratulations." Fu Jue finally said it, even after holding back for ten minutes.

"Okay, thank you." Gu Qingqing smiled faintly at him and placed another piece of hot crab stick into his bowl.

Then he busied himself scalding a piece of tripe for Gu En, who liked to eat tripe.

Scald another piece of duck blood curd for Gu Jin; it's good for his lungs.

Finally, she cooked a piece of beef roll for Gu Mu, as he liked to eat beef.
