After get off work, Lin Guodong ate a bowl of noodles at a state-owned restaurant and then waited outside the dumpling shop.

Even after all the customers in the store had left, his mother still didn't leave.

This evening, he was freezing cold, thinking that it was so late, his mother had not yet made any plans to return to the Li family, and probably would not return.

Just as he was about to leave, he saw his mother walking out of the store with a man.

After a closer look, he found that this man was Captain Gu of the Criminal Investigation Team whom he knew.

The two stood at the door and talked for a few minutes. Captain Gu ran to the car and opened the door but did not get out of the car. Instead, he took something out of the car and gave it to his mother.

Lin Guodong hid behind a pillar about ten meters away, sticking half of his head out, secretly watching his mother and Captain Gu. He couldn't see what Captain Gu gave to his mother, nor could he hear what they were saying.

Li Yunshu glanced at Gu Zhenyuan, put the leather gloves back into the bag, and said with a smile: "I just wanted to buy a pair of cycling gloves. Thank you, brother Zhenyuan."

When Gu Zhenyuan saw her accept it, the corners of his mouth raised uncontrollably.

"You're welcome, Sister Yunshu, you should rest early after you're done. I'm leaving."

After saying that, Gu Zhenyuan nodded to Li Yunshu, looked back every three steps, and drove away.

The car quickly disappeared in the cold winter night. Li Yunshu glanced at the paper bag in his hand, shrugged his shoulders, and turned to go into the store.

Lin Guodong saw his mother enter the store, stamp her frozen feet, and trot out.

"What's this?" Qin Rong, who was wiping the table, asked curiously when she saw her walk in with a paper bag.

Sister Li sent Captain Gu out and stayed outside for a long time. I don’t know what they were talking about outside.

Li Yunshu said, "Brother Zhenyuan gave me leather gloves."

When Qin Rong heard this, her eyes immediately flashed with gossip. "Did he tell you anything when he gave you the gloves?"

Li Yunshu frowned and said, "He said these sheepskin gloves are windproof and I can wear them when I ride my bike."

"Hehehe..." Qin Rong looked at her with an ambiguous expression and smiled.

Li Yunshu knew what she was thinking and smiled helplessly, "Don't be silly, hurry up and wipe the table. After you're done, go home early. Chunbao is still waiting for you at home."

Chunbao didn't go to night school today. It wasn't that there were no classes at night school tonight, but she had a cough when she got up early. Qin Rong was so nervous that she didn't let her go to night school today.

Qin Rong looked at her and said, "Captain Gu wouldn't give you gloves for no reason. Ever since you started your stall, he's been coming to support you. Sometimes he comes to eat dumplings in the store, and when he sees that there are too many people and he's overwhelmed, he rolls up his sleeves and helps without saying a word."

"Today, he will come to help and deliver gloves tomorrow. Sister Li, you've been through this before, so you should know what Captain Gu is thinking."

Li Yunshu nodded. After all, she was not a little girl, so how could she not see it?

But Gu Zhenyuan didn't say it clearly, so she naturally didn't want to expose it.

What if the other person is only slightly interested in her, but has no other thoughts and does not intend to make it clear? If she tries to expose it, she will be embarrassed.

"Now that you know, what are you thinking?"

Li Yunshu smiled and shook his head.

"Sister Li, why are you not saying anything and just shaking your head? What does that mean?" Qin Rong asked with a frown.

Before Li Yunshu left, he patted her on the shoulder and said, "I just don't think much of it."

"You don't like Captain Gu?" Qin Rong asked in surprise.

Li Yunshu smiled and said, "The way you said it, it seems like I should like him."

Qin Rong pursed her lips and said, "Because Captain Gu is a very good person, good in every way and upright, and your two families are close and know each other well."

Li Yunshu nodded and said, "It's undeniable that my brother Zhenyuan is a very good person in every aspect. It's very easy to get along with him. To be honest, I like him very much."

Hearing this, Qin Rong's eyes lit up again.

Li Yunshu quickly extended his hand and said, "It's not the kind of love between men and women, it's the kind of love I have for you as a sister and a friend."

Hearing this, the light in Qin Rong's eyes suddenly disappeared.

Yes, Bai was excited.

Li Yunshu said seriously, "I don't have that kind of feeling towards him."

Qin Rong's eyebrows drooped, and her expression was full of regret.

She had felt a long time ago that Captain Gu was interested in Sister Li, and every time she saw the two of them together, she thought they were a good match.

I have often thought that it would be great if the two of them could be together.

But unexpectedly, Captain Gu was interested in Sister Li, but she was not interested at all.

How can this not make people feel pity and regret?

Li Yunshu looked at her with regret and thought that Qin Rong should be like those young people in later generations who said that she and Gu Zhenyuan were a perfect couple.

He shook his head amusedly and went to the backyard.

The weather was cold, and it was a little after eight in the evening. Mrs. Mu was two years old, so she washed up and curled up in bed to read.

Mrs. Mu was reading a book when she suddenly heard footsteps on the stairs. She shouted towards the door, "Zhenyuan, are you back?"

Gu Zhen walked away from the building and said, "Mom."

Mrs. Mu: "Come to my room and your father's room."

Gu Zhenyuan walked to the door of his parents' room, opened it, and called out again: "Dad, Mom."

"You came back so late, where were you going?" Mrs. Mu asked curiously.

Gu Zhenyuan touched his nose and said, "I'm going to help Sister Yunshu in her store for a few hours."

Mrs. Mu said with a look of relief: "You finally got it."

Take action.

"And then?" she asked again.

Gu Zhenyuan: "Then, we'll have dinner together at the dumpling shop. Sister Yunshu stewed pig's trotters with kidney beans today. The soup is milky white, and the pig's trotters are soft and tender. It's delicious with the dipping sauce prepared by Sister Yunshu."

Mrs. Mu wiped the water from the corner of her mouth and said, "Okay, don't be greedy for me and your father this evening."

"I asked you to help with the work, and what did you say? Did you do anything?"

Gu Zhenyuan nodded, "Yes, Mom. When I left, I also gave Sister Yunshu a pair of sheepskin gloves for her to wear when riding a bike."

He bought the gloves at a state-owned store.

Old Madam Mu smiled and nodded, saying, "Not bad, you still know how to give gifts. What next?"

"And then?" Gu Zhenyuan was stunned for a moment, "And then I drove back."

Mrs. Mu rolled her eyes, not wanting to look at him. She looked at her husband and said, "Your son hasn't inherited any of your pursuit of love. When you were pursuing me, you gave me a flower every day and said a lot of sweet words."

"Look at your son again... I really don't want to say anything about him."

Old Master Gu also shook his head in despair. He was pursuing the person he liked, but Zhenyuan really didn't inherit his traits.

Gu Zhenyuan: “…”

No, is his performance that bad?

Let my parents hope that he will become like this, and they don't even want to talk about him.
