Gu Huanian's lips curled up: "No matter how hard some people try, they're not the child's biological father. Look how excited my baby is to see me!"
"What's there to be proud of? You're just a thing of the past; people always look forward."
When Su Li came out of the room, she saw that Gu Huanian and Lu Huai were in an awkward atmosphere.
She met Lu Huai on the way to the textile factory. During this period, he was busy with school and engineering projects.
She rarely saw him.
"Gu Huanian, what are you doing here?"
"I'm here for the same reason as last time. The higher-ups have given an explanation. Do you want me to say it in front of Comrade Lu?"
Su Li glared at Gu Huanian, then looked at Lu Huai and said, "Regarding that drawing you mentioned, I'll redraw it for you tonight and send it over tomorrow."
Besides engineering projects, Lu Huai has also taken on several house renovation projects. His engineering team now has quite a few people.
All of these require Su Li's blueprints.
Lu Huai handed a food box to Su Li, saying, "This is peanut brittle that my grandma made. She asked me to bring it for you to try."
Just as Su Li was about to reach out and take it, Gu Huanian snatched it away, saying, "Let me taste it for you first to see if it's good."
"That's for Su Li."
Gu Huanian said with a half-smile, "I know, I just want to try it first. Comrade Lu wouldn't be so stingy, would he?"
As he spoke, he reached out and picked up a peanut brittle and stuffed it into his mouth; it was about four or five pieces in total.
Gu Huanian quickly finished the peanut brittle, then looked at Lu Huai apologetically and said, "I'm so sorry, I accidentally ate all your peanut brittle. You're so stingy, giving someone such a small amount as a gift? It's barely enough to fill a tooth gap."
Lu Huai's face was extremely ugly; "Battalion Commander Gu, I didn't expect you to be such a tasteless person."
Gu Huanian laughed and said, "Where haven't I tasted you! Holding someone else's son and not letting go."
"You, you"
Lu Huai felt that Gu Huanian had suddenly changed. Even though he didn't like Gu Huanian before, he had to admit that he was a responsible and courageous person. How could he have become like this now?
Seeing that Lu Huai's expression was getting worse, Su Li smiled and said, "Lu Huai, give me the child! You should go back first! Otherwise, Grandma and the others will get worried."
Lu Huai glanced at Su Li with a complicated expression. Every time they encountered Gu Huanian, he was always the one to leave first. Why was he always the one to leave first? Was he really that bad?
His heart wasn't made of stone; it could feel sadness too. He didn't know how much longer he could hold on to this unrequited love.
During this time, his grandmother kept advising him to either talk things out with Su Li or find a partner.
“I don’t have much time left to live, you can’t waste any more time on her. I know she’s a good girl, but she doesn’t like you. Why can’t you take a step forward and find someone else to like?”
