She sent the two employees back first, replenished the fruit, vegetable and grain section, and then closed the store.

As soon as I went outside, I saw Lu Huai.

She smiled and said, "What brings you here? Is there something you need?"

"I came to find you because there were some parts of the drawings you gave me that I didn't understand, so I thought I'd come and ask you about them."

Su Li looked at his empty hands; "How can I help you look at it if you don't bring it?"

"Come to my house! It's not far anyway. Grandma knows you'll be busy with your opening today, so she specially prepared a meal."

Su Li felt a little embarrassed, but since the old lady had prepared the meal, it would hurt her feelings if she didn't go.

So he said, "Lu Huai, please don't trouble Grandma Lu next time. It's very convenient for me to cook at home myself."

Lu Huai nodded; he had come by bicycle today.

He knew that Su Li wouldn't ride in his car to avoid suspicion, so he just pushed the bike and walked with her.

Inside a car across the street from the supermarket entrance.

Gu Huanian sat in the driver's seat, quietly watching Su Li and Lu Huai, who was pushing a bicycle, walk and talk on the opposite side of the road.

Lu Huai is a very good man. He liked Su Li when they were in Lijiatun.

Now that he's been admitted to Peking University, he's inquired about it these past few days and found out that many female students are pursuing him.

But there has never been any rumor about him having anything with other female students.

He and Su Li share common topics and interests, and they have a lot of free time together... unlike him who is always going on missions and leaving her behind all the time.

As he watched the two walk together, Gu Huanian's hands on the steering wheel slowly tightened.

He had originally thought that he would just watch her silently, as long as she was happy.

He could simply disappear from her sight and, as she requested, stop bothering her.

But in that instant, seeing her so close to another man, he realized the overwhelming resentment, heartache, and anxiety in his heart.

Only after witnessing it firsthand did he realize that he couldn't give up.

The thought of her dating Lu Huai, getting married, hugging, kissing... and even doing all the intimate things that couples do makes him insanely jealous.
