"Third sister-in-law, I suspect Xiaoxiao is in a relationship."

Gu Changshu approached Ruan Qiushui and asked a gossipy question.

"Tell me about it?"

Ruan Qiushui was curious to know what Gu Changshu had discovered.

“These past few days, there has been a bouquet of chrysanthemums on Xiaoxiao’s desk every day.”

"And Xiaoxiao often gets phone calls, and that girl just smiles like an idiot when she's on the phone."

“At first, I didn’t think anything was wrong. Until today, I saw Xiaoxiao go out and come back with a movie ticket, her face was all red.”

Judging from Xiaoxiao's shy appearance, the person who gave her the movie ticket must be a man.

Unfortunately, despite his attempts to inquire indirectly, Xiaoxiao didn't reveal a single word.

She was even afraid that he would insist on going along and causing trouble, so she left work early while he was busy with the banquet.

This prevented him from even following behind to see what the man really looked like.

"I don't know what that man is capable of, that he could make my little sister leave me behind."

As Gu Changshu spoke, he became somewhat jealous.

He's my younger sister's fourth brother. For her to leave him, that man must be far more outstanding than him.

He's at least a handsome and talented young man.

I hope that man will treat my little sister well and not let her down.

After dinner, Gu Xiaoxiao had not returned for a long time, and Gu Changshu and Ruan Qiushui were both a little worried.

"It's already 9:30. If the two of them watch the movie and then have dinner, they'll have plenty of time."

Gu Changshu glanced at his watch and stood up in a panic.

"I'll make a call and ask."

Ruan Qiushui was also a little worried, so she went to the phone and first dialed the number of Zhang Li, the person in charge of the cinema.

After Xiaoxiao told me that she had seen a movie with a man and left, I called Yushanfang again.

Xiaoxiao loves the dishes from the Imperial Kitchen the most, so there's no reason for her not to support her family's business.

"Sister Qiu, Sister Gu is in the private room right now."

"Yes, yes, there was a man there too."

"But that man ordered a bottle of baijiu (Chinese liquor). Sister Gu can't hold her liquor, so shouldn't we intervene?"

"When I went into the private room to deliver the food, I saw that the man's arm was around Sister Gu's waist."

The staff at the Imperial Kitchen felt that this man didn't seem like a good person, but they didn't want to tell Sister Qiu directly.

If it's truly a case of one party willing to hit and the other willing to be hit, then isn't he meddling in other people's business?

If Sister Gu finds out he's a chatterbox, he might lose his job.

"Changshu, drive my car to the main branch of Yushanfang right away, and be quick."

Ruan Qiushui hung up the phone and quickly told Gu Changshu about the seriousness of the situation.

As the third sister-in-law, she didn't want to interfere too much in Xiaoxiao's love life.

But this obviously malicious bastard, let's break them up one by one.

"Damn it, if that bastard dares to have any bad intentions towards Xiaoxiao, I'll kill him on the spot."

Gu Changshu took the car keys from his third sister-in-law and hurriedly headed towards the Imperial Kitchen.

Inside the Imperial Kitchen.

"Brother, I think I just saw Miss Gu go into a private room with a man."

He Fanghai, the third son of the He family, lowered his head and frowned, looking at his favorite dishes and pastries in front of him, but he had no appetite.

From his position, he could see the private room diagonally opposite through the window.

Although you can't see what's inside, you can still see who goes in.

After all, his eyesight is good enough to be a sniper.

Thinking of Gu Xiaoxiao's shy expression just now, I wonder what kind of scoundrel the man next to me really is.

"Hmm, so what?"

He Fangbo raised an eyebrow and glanced at his taciturn third brother.

You were so reserved and had a crush on someone, now Gu Xiaoxiao has someone pursuing her, are you getting anxious?

He didn't know why he would choose to come to the main store instead of the nearest branch of the Imperial Cuisine Restaurant.

It wasn't because someone had found out about Gu Xiaoxiao's reservation beforehand that they came here specifically to bump into her.

"nothing."

He Fanghai was speechless, caught off guard by his elder brother's words.

Could it be that he had already fallen for Gu Xiaoxiao and had been secretly watching her all along?

However, due to a lack of courage, he hesitated to confess his feelings.

Are you afraid that Gu Xiaoxiao will reject you and you won't even be able to be ordinary friends?

"Third brother, when did you start caring about Sister Gu?"

He Fangtao, the second son of the He family, put down his chopsticks, somewhat curious.

He has been busy with the family business lately and rarely has time to have meals with his eldest and third brothers, so this rumor hasn't been updated yet.

"It's only because she's Ruan Qiushui's sister-in-law that I'm paying attention to her."

He Fanghai is stubborn as a mule.

If he didn't genuinely like Gu Xiaoxiao, he wouldn't be so worried about the lack of a future and wouldn't have suppressed his feelings to this extent.

If we can't be lovers, it's good to be able to protect each other silently from behind.

"Oh, I thought she could help you get a reservation at the Imperial Cuisine Restaurant through connections."

He Fangtao didn't think much of it and focused on eating his food.

Today, his third brother didn't fight with him for food, so he can eat a lot more.

He Fanghai ate his food half-heartedly, thinking about Gu Xiaoxiao in the opposite compartment, his mouth watering.

At this moment, He Fanghai, who had been staring at the opposite private room, noticed that the waiter brought in a bottle of strong liquor.

"!"

Gu Xiaoxiao doesn't drink alcohol, so what exactly is this man up to?

"Big brother, second brother, I'm a little too full. I'm going out for a walk to digest."

He Fanghai was so restless and anxious that he couldn't sit still. He simply put down his chopsticks and left the private room.

"?"

He Fangtao looked at the large table of leftover food and was somewhat puzzled.

Has my third brother changed his ways? Even the cat ate more than him today, and he actually said he was stuffed.

"Big brother, should we go back and find a doctor to take our third brother to see a doctor?"

He Fangtao was very worried about his third brother's unusual behavior.

He's even giving up his favorite food. Could he have a terminal illness?

“…”

He Fangbo rolled his eyes at his second younger brother.

If we really need medical treatment, let's get my second brother's brain checked first.

With that level of intelligence, he deserves to be single forever.

Pshaw! I almost cursed myself.

He Fanghai followed the blue brick path, crossed the small bridge and the flowing water, and arrived near the private room where Gu Xiaoxiao was.

Gu Xiaoxiao, who was in the private room, was already drunk after being forced to drink two glasses of baijiu.

He Fanghai pretended to be passing by, tilting his head to look inside through the window.

Facing the window, with flushed cheeks and blurry, drunken eyes, Gu Xiaoxiao swayed unsteadily.

The sleazy, greasy man grinned wickedly, reaching out with one hand around Gu Xiaoxiao's waist and the other hand preparing to slip down her collar and reach towards her chest.

"Fuck you."

If He Fanghai could still tolerate this, he wouldn't be a man.

He immediately walked to the door of the private room and kicked it open forcefully.

Who are you? What do you want?

He Fanghai's sudden appearance startled the greasy man.

The hands that were about to succeed were pulled back in time due to the shock.

"You're asking for it."

Without saying a word, He Fanghai went up and punched the greasy man.
