Xiao Yu, being a doting older brother, immediately jumped up from his seat upon hearing that his sister had fallen off her bicycle. He went to Xiao Xue and asked with a worried expression, "Sister, are you hurt anywhere? Does anything hurt?"

Seeing the three faces showing the same worry, Xiao Xue shook her head and said, "I'm fine. I didn't fall to the ground. The person who saved me caught me in time. The bicycle fell to the ground, and the front was a little crooked, but that person helped straighten it." As Xiao Xue told her family this, that handsome face with its distinct features flashed through her mind.

Luckily, that person saved you. If it weren't for them, you would definitely have been injured if you had fallen. Xiaoxue, did you thank the person who saved you? And what kind of person is that? Your mother and I will bring some things to express our gratitude.

Dad, he's a man who came from out of town on business. He'll be staying in town for a while and is currently staying at the town's guesthouse. By the way, his name is Gu Moting. I told him that in a few days, our family will treat him to a meal to express our gratitude.

Sure, tomorrow then. Our family will treat him to dinner after work tomorrow night, at a state-run restaurant. Dad will go with you to the guesthouse to find him and let him know, okay?

Alright, Dad, you can decide. But I didn't ask him which room he was staying in at the guesthouse. We'll ask the receptionist when we get there.

The next evening after get off work, Xiao Xue's father accompanied her to the guesthouse. Xiao Xue told the receptionist Gu Moting's name and asked her to inform him. Xiao Xue waited for him downstairs.

The receptionist went up and came down a while later, followed by Gu Moting. When Xiao Xue saw Gu Moting, her heart started beating a little fast. When Gu Moting stopped in front of her, she felt like her heart was about to jump out of her chest.

Comrade Xiao Xue, what brings you here? And what should I call this comrade next to you? Gu Moting immediately recognized that Xiao Xue and her father looked somewhat alike, indicating a familial relationship. However, he pretended not to know and wanted to hear Xiao Xue say it herself.

Comrade Gu Moting, this is my father, Comrade Xiao Dingyu. I'm here to see you because you saved me yesterday, right? I said I'd treat you to a meal with my family to express my gratitude. Last night, I went home and told my parents about it, and my father said he wanted to thank you, so we've set the dinner for tonight. Are you available now? Do you have time?

"Hello, Uncle Xiao! My name is Gu Moting." Gu Moting extended his right hand and placed it in front of Xiao's father. After Xiao's father shook his hand and released it, he turned to Xiao Xue and said, "Comrade Xiao, you are too kind. It was just a small favor, but you are so kind that I couldn't refuse. I've taken the liberty of bothering you." The implication was that he had time to have dinner with Xiao Xue and her family.

"Uncle Xiao, Comrade Xiao Xue, please wait here for a few minutes. I'm going upstairs to get something and will be right back." After Xiao's father and Xiao Xue nodded, Gu Moting strode up the stairs.

A few minutes later, Gu Moting appeared on the stairs. Xiao Xue looked over and saw that he had changed his clothes and was carrying a cardboard box.

"Uncle Xiao, Comrade Xiao Xue, I'm sorry to have kept you waiting. I'm ready now, we can go." "Where are we eating?" Gu Moting asked, standing in front of Xiao Xue and looking at her.

We're going to eat at the state-run restaurant. We just got off work, and that's the only place we can eat at this time. Does Comrade Gu Moting know where the restaurant is? If so, let's walk there now. My mother and younger brother are waiting there. Xiao Xue didn't know why she told Gu Moting that she had just gotten off work and could only eat at the state-run restaurant. It seemed like she was saying she got off work late and wouldn't have time to cook dinner at home. The slow-witted Xiao Xue couldn't figure out the meaning behind her words.
