Chapter 238: All Bachelors
The commander of the Fifth Division couldn't help but look at Gu Jinghong and asked in confusion.
"Why do you need protection from the Ministry of State Security?"
Gu Jinghong's face turned gloomy for a moment, and he said in a cold voice.
"Someone in Jiangcheng is causing trouble for her."
But in fact, everyone knows that since it is not the Ministry of State Security that has stepped in, it means that Su Ying's life must be threatened. This is the protection of the country's special talents, but given Gu Jinghong's identity, no matter what, no one should dare to harm his wife, right?
The few people didn't understand what was going on, and it was not appropriate to ask more questions in front of Su Ying, so they smiled and sat down with everyone else.
Su Ying really didn't know that so many people would come to her house, so she cooked a small and simple meal. She could only ask Du Feng to help bring out some wine so that they could drink it first while she cooked a few dishes.
A good day ago, I went to the grocery store and bought a lot of things, including a lot of vegetables.
"Comrades, please eat first. I'll cook a few more dishes. It will be ready soon."
After Su Ying finished speaking, she went into the kitchen. Zhang Su wanted to help, but after looking at Gu Jinghong, he didn't dare to ask. This teacher had a bad temper, and he was afraid that if she and Su Ying stayed in the kitchen, it would cause his dissatisfaction.
Just when I was thinking that Su Ying was having a hard time working alone, I saw Teacher Gu unbuttoning his shirt cuffs and walking into the kitchen with his sleeves rolled up.
The people sitting at the table outside all laughed, and some couldn't help but make fun of it.
"Who would have thought that our teacher, who never had to do any housework, would actually enter the kitchen."
Someone else laughed.
"I say, Lao Gu, is the food you cook good enough? Just help your sister-in-law, and don't try to cook it yourself. Otherwise, the ingredients will be wasted."
Gu Jinghong poked his head out of the kitchen and gave them a cold look.
"If you think the food is bad, go eat in the cafeteria. Did I invite you here? You're the ones begging me to come to my house for dinner. If you don't want to eat, get out of here."
After being yelled at by him, the person who had just spoken immediately softened his tone.
"Look at you, you're so annoying, so boring."
Gu Jinghong ignored them and looked at Su Ying in the kitchen.
"How can I help you? Do you want to remove the leaves from this vegetable?"
Su Ying looked up and saw that he was holding a broccoli and had already plucked several small flowers from it and thrown them into the trash can.
Su Ying got anxious and quickly snatched it from his hand.
"No, we need to eat this flower. If you throw it away, what will we eat?"
Gu Jinghong looked at her in a daze. He had rarely eaten this dish before. He might have eaten it once or twice, but he couldn't remember.
Su Ying was also afraid that he would cause trouble if he stayed in the kitchen, so she sent him away.
When a group of comrades saw him coming out covered in dust, they were so happy that they laughed. Some of them pointed at Gu Jinghong and said with a smile.
"You have come to this day. Look, your wife has disliked you, right?"
As soon as Gu Jinghong sat down, someone poured him some wine. After a brief chat, they started drinking.
They are all tall men in their 50s, generous and good at drinking.
By the time Su Ying's three dishes were served, two of them were so drunk that they almost didn't recognize each other, but they still pulled their comrades next to them to talk.
Su Ying heard only a few words from him saying that he had a blind date with a girl from the city who was a primary school teacher. She was not very pretty, but well-educated and well-mannered.
Su Ying thought that the relationship was successful, but when she went into the kitchen to bring out the dishes, she saw that the leader who had just mentioned the blind date had a sad face and was sighing.
"Tell me, Old Zhu, tell me, am I destined to be single? How could I have encountered such a thing?"
Su Ying arranged the dishes and stood there feeling a little anxious. She didn't listen to the middle part, but she was still very curious.
She quietly pinched Gu Jinghong's back, and Gu Jinghong immediately felt it and looked back at Su Ying.
