Gu Yanli frowned.

He knew Tu Manman.

Actually, I can’t say that I know him, I can only say that he is not unfamiliar to me.

Su Xiuxiu from the art troupe used to come to see him often, and many times, Tu Manman was by her side.

In fact, Tu Manman had come to see him twice in private.

Come over and ask about his personal relationship problems.

Gu Yanli was very resistant at the time. He couldn't say his attitude towards Tu Manman was good, because the first time Tu Manman came to him privately to ask about his relationship, Gu Yanli asked her, "You were transferred from the art troupe to our army and became the political commissar?"

These words made Tu Manman choke.

Gu Yanli left.

The second time Tu Manman approached him, she clenched her fists to cheer herself up and said, "Comrade Gu, please don't misunderstand me. I'm not some gossipy person who has to delve into your personal problems. I just wanted to say that if your personal problems haven't been resolved yet, maybe I can help you find someone."

"You can..." Tu Manman wanted to say that you can tell you what kind of girl you like.

Gentle, pretty, and considerate?

But Gu Yanli didn't give her a chance to continue. He just said, "No need," and walked past her.

That was their only contact.

Gu Yanli felt that in such a situation, it was not necessary to say hello if he ran into someone outside.

Tu Manman's gesture of raising her hand to greet him made Gu Yanli feel abrupt.

But when Tu Manman raised her hand to greet him, Wen Tang raised an eyebrow. She asked Gu Yanli beside her, "Do you know him?"

Don’t we know each other this time?

But knowing?

It was obvious that Wen Tang was inclined to believe that the two were familiar with each other.

After all, Tu Manman's expression and actions were too obvious.

Gu Yanli said "hmm", but quickly added "Not familiar!"

Wen Tang leaned closer to him and asked, "You don't look familiar, do you?"

"If you really don't know them well, would they say hello to you?"

Wen Tang and Gu Yanli were sitting side by side, and now she was talking to him close to him, as if she was being deliberately intimate with him.

It also seemed like she was deliberately being clingy and acting coquettish in front of Tu Manman.

That’s how Tu Manman sees it.

She knew that many women always liked to compare their personal charm with her.

Although she herself had no such idea at all.

but……

If she doesn't respond after being provoked like this, wouldn't that be impolite?

Tu Manman stood up and said to the man sitting opposite her, "Excuse me, I ran into someone I know. I came over to say hello."

The man smiled and nodded, "Are you a friend?"

"Do you need me to go with you?"

Tu Manman looked at the other person and said politely but distantly, "I'm afraid it's not appropriate. Mr. Jiang and I just came out to get to know each other. I'm afraid it wouldn't be a good idea to introduce my friend to Comrade Jiang."

The smiling man froze his smile, but he still maintained his composure. "Then I won't disturb Comrade Tu from talking to his friends."

Tu Manman thought about it and took out two yuan from her handbag. "If Comrade Jiang is busy, let's stop here today!"

"This is money for the soda, mine and my friend's."

Now that things have been said, as an adult, there is nothing the other party might not understand.

"Well... I'll be leaving first, but Comrade Tu doesn't have to pay for the soda," he said, raising his hand to call for the waiter.

"Hello, let's settle the bill and pack up the dishes I ordered."

They had already ordered the food, but it hadn't arrived yet, so the soda was served first.

Tu Manman and Zhang Qingqing both drank soda.

The other party didn't take the two dollars that Tu Manman took out. He followed the waiter to the counter to pay and waited for the food to be packed.

Zhang Qingqing quickly grabbed the two yuan and muttered to Tu Manman, "Are you stupid?"

"How can two bottles of soda cost two dollars?"

"Are you planning to treat him to a meal?"

As Zhang Qingqing said this, she stuffed the two yuan she had grabbed into Tu Manman's bag, saying, "I've seen stupid people, but I've never seen anyone as stupid as you."

"How much did it cost for him to treat us to a meal?"

"We didn't eat a single bite, and now he's asked to pack up the food, and you're still paying for it. He's really eating for free and he knows why."

Tu Manman smiled faintly and said, "I just don't want others to say that we are taking advantage of others." Tu Manman did not stop Zhang Qingqing from putting the money back into her handbag, nor did she chase after the man named Jiang. She was determined to pay for the soda.

Instead, she waited for Zhang Qingqing to stuff the money in and close her handbag before turning around with her men and heading straight for Gu Yanli and the others' table.

Gu Yanli and Wen Tang were sitting side by side, so the seat opposite them was empty.

Tu Manman sat down opposite without even saying hello.

Wen Tang looked at the other person's smiling face and smiled himself, "Comrade, since there are people here, we won't share the table."

Gu Yanli said he was not familiar with her, and Wen Tang believed that he really was not familiar with her.

Moreover, although the person sitting opposite Gu Yanli looked gentle and polite, she was not blind and could see the hint of provocation in his eyes.

That’s right, Tu Manman came to their table and sat directly opposite Gu Yanli.

As soon as Wen Tang finished speaking, the smile on Tu Manman's face froze.

But soon, she resumed her polite and distant smile and extended her hand to Wen Tang, "Hello, comrade, I am a friend of Captain Gu."

Wen Tang looked at Gu Yanli beside him.

Gu Yanli frowned, his face darkening, "Comrade, when did we become friends?"

"If you can't wake up during the day, see a doctor," he added.

"Puchi," Wen Tang couldn't help but burst out laughing.
