She, a powerful ancient martial arts master, woke up to find herself transmigrated into a Mary Sue novel, becoming a cannon fodder female supporting character. She was merely a stepping stone for t...
The three entered the understated yet luxurious living room and were then led by a servant into the upscale dining room next door.
Seeing Gu Jinzheng and Fu Jue chatting and laughing, talking about interesting things in the business world, the atmosphere was quite harmonious.
They got along well, which made Gu Qingqing very happy. She was just worried that Gu Jin might not like Fu Jue like Gu Mu did, which would be troublesome, since she needed to cling to Fu Jue and have him as her backer.
Gu Mu gently pushed the chair aside, letting Gu Qingqing sit down.
None of them spoke; they simply smiled as they watched the male servants bring the dishes to the table.
On the dining table was a bottle of expensive wine and several wine glasses.
The menu includes thick mushroom soup, cheese pasta, mixed vegetable salad, and cheese-baked prawns.
Other dishes include cream of corn soup, black pepper steak, herb salmon steak, and Spanish seafood paella.
They discovered that all the dishes were her favorites. Not only were Gu Mu and Gu En stunned, but even Gu Jin couldn't believe it.
Is it just a coincidence?
Or was it a deliberate arrangement by Fu Jue?
Only Gu Qingqing herself was unaware of the true situation; she only thought the dishes were plentiful and delicious.
"Wow, the dishes are so plentiful, they look delicious. Thank you for your hospitality, Mr. Fu."
"If Qingqing likes it, then let's eat! No need to wait for me." Seeing her bright smile and sparkling eyes, looking like a little glutton, Fu Jue knew he had made the right decision.
Oh, no, it's the books that teach it well.
Without those books, he wouldn't know how to make her happy and win her heart.
Seeing Fu Jue raise his wine glass, Gu Qingqing and the three Gu brothers raised their glasses to toast him.
She was about to pick up her knife and fork and slowly cut the steak.
"Qingqing, let me cut it for you." Gu Mu hurriedly reached out and pressed her hand, pushing her steak towards him.
"Thank you, Second Brother." She returned his sweet smile.
"Hmph!" Gu En snorted coldly, angry at himself for being a step too slow, and also angry at Gu Mu for being too cunning.
It's okay, he'll definitely get his chance next time.
"Third Brother~" Gu Qingqing was truly exasperated that the two of them were still vying for favor at this time. How embarrassed she would be if Fu Jue saw this.
And since they're spoiling her so much now, they'll spoil her rotten sooner or later.
"Eat up, Qingqing, don't mind him." Gu Mu pushed the cut steak towards her again.
"Qingqing, have a sip of soup first. This mushroom soup is your favorite. I've cooled it down for you." Gu En picked up her small bowl of mushroom soup, blew on it a few times to cool it down, and then placed it in front of her. She even used a spoon to scoop a spoonful and fed it to her.
"Thank you, Third Brother." Gu Qingqing opened her mouth and drank it. The rich and fragrant mushroom soup was delicious and lingered on her lips and teeth.
Gu Mu didn't say anything. As the older brother, he naturally had to give way to Gu En. Besides, it wasn't a big deal, and there was no need to argue with Gu En.
Besides, we're still at Fu Jue's house, so we can't let him look down on us or misunderstand anything.
Seeing Gu Qingqing being pampered by two men, Fu Jue felt a surge of inexplicable discomfort.
"Mr. Fu, please forgive them. They're used to it and have carried it with them. I hope you won't mind." Gu Jin saw that Fu Jue's face was gloomy and his eyes were cold, and he was afraid that Fu Jue would be angry.
“It’s alright. I quite like the way you siblings get along. I’m an only child, so I can’t understand the kind of affection between you siblings.” Fu Jue shook his head gently, his gaze fixed on Gu Qingqing.
What he didn't know was that later, when he discovered he had developed deep feelings for her, Gu Mu and the others would become stumbling blocks on his path to love, with a daily battle for her affections.
Gu Jin didn't reply, but instead gave a polite smile, though he was secretly delighted.
The four siblings in his family have a really good relationship and are very close.
This is something that only children cannot feel or experience.
Of course, every way of getting along has its advantages and disadvantages; it depends on each person's choices.
Gu Qingqing ate her steak in small bites, her face beaming with a constant, greedy smile. The food was just so delicious!
She eats and sleeps well, and nothing else can affect her eating or sleeping.
Even ancient martial arts have to be placed second.
Now that she has three older brothers who are doting on their sister, she has to be ranked third.
Fu Jue and the others remained silent, enjoying their food while listening to the beautiful live music.
Although Fu Jue didn't have a chance to say more than a few words to Gu Qingqing, he had been paying attention to her situation. For example, he remembered what kind of dishes and soups she liked to eat and how many bites she ate. He was waiting for the next opportunity to have a meal together so that he could prepare her favorite food.
After the hour-long dinner, Fu Jue led Gu Jin and Gu Qingqing, along with their three siblings, to the living room for tea and a chat.
"This is the first time I've invited you all to my home. Please don't be shy, have some tea and snacks. This is also my first time hosting guests, so please forgive me if my hospitality is lacking."
Sitting on the single sofa, Fu Jue felt a little nervous and angry when he saw that Gu Qingqing and the others were a bit reserved, not drinking tea or eating, and sitting upright.
He was afraid that if she was unhappy, it would affect her impression of him, and what if she refused to come to his house again next time?
Gu Jin smiled and said, "Mr. Fu, you're too kind."
Hearing Gu Jin's still polite address and tone, Fu Jue frowned. "Just call me Fu Jue! You're two years older than me, so I'll call you Brother Gu."
Brother Gu?
Being called "Big Brother" by the world's richest man left Gu Jin feeling dizzy, as if he had been hit by a surprise from the sky.
He didn't know whether he should agree or not. Once the news got out that Fu Jue had called him "Big Brother," what kind of entertainment impact would that have on the Gu Group?
