"Sister Xiaolan, I'll tell you another time."

"Let me keep this a secret for now."

"All I can tell you is that this is a very big deal, it concerns your entire life."

Marriage is a major life event, and he is absolutely right.

"A major life event? Is it that big?" Xiaolan became even more curious about what it was.

She also made a guess in her mind:

"It's not a wedding, is it?"

However, she dismissed the idea as soon as it came to mind.

"How could that be?"

"How old is Guangyou now?"

But what she didn't know was that although she guessed wrong—it wasn't a marriage proposal but a proposal—she wasn't far from the truth.

It's not her fault; Guangyou's age is obvious, so it would be strange if she thought that idea was possible.

While we were talking, the steamed dumplings were ready.

After taking the xiaolongbao out with Ran, Kōyū went to wake up Conan and Uncle Mori.

Of all the firms, these two are the slowest.

Unless they're free, these two are usually the last to get up, and Guangyou has to prepare breakfast before he can wake them up.

However, doing this so often just becomes a habit.

Besides waking the two of them up, Kōyū also went back to his room to grab his phone from the bedside table and sent Ai a text message:

"Is the young lady awake yet?"

Soon, Guangyou received a text message:

"The butler got up quite early."

Upon seeing this text message, Guangyou couldn't help but chuckle.

"This girl really knows how to have fun."

"A rich young lady and her butler...heh."

They joked around, and Kwang-yu then sent a text message to Ai-chan:

"Ai, have you had breakfast yet?"

"If you haven't eaten, I'll bring you some xiaolongbao later?"

I don't know the exact reason, but maybe it's the same reason why Guangyou made xiaolongbao for breakfast today.

After waiting a short while, Kousuke finally received a positive reply from Ai:

"I haven't eaten yet, I just got up."

Guangyou was unaware of this matter; he never even considered it.

As for whether Ai Haibara's reason was this, only Ai Haibara herself knows.
