At lunchtime, Rong Shi wanted to take Gu Chu to the cafeteria, but Gu Chu refused: "It's fine here. I don't want to be the center of attention."
Rong Shi didn't force her: "Okay, then wait for me for a while."
A short while later, Rong Shi brought in the food with his men.
"Sister-in-law, this is what we have to offer in the canteen today, please try it!" said the young soldier following behind Rong Shi enthusiastically.
Gu Chu stood up and smiled politely, "Thank you! You've worked hard!"
"It's no trouble at all, please enjoy your meal. I won't bother you any longer."
Once everyone left, only she and Rong Shi remained in the dormitory.
“I didn’t know what you liked to eat, so I just got a little bit of everything today,” Rong Shi said.
Gu Chu said very seriously, "I mean it when I say I'm not a picky eater."
Rong Shi looked her over and said, "You don't look fat."
Gu Chu: "..."
After lunch, Gu Chu called Su Wan.
After Su Wan and Gu Chu separated, Su Wan checked into a hotel in the city center, and Jing Hong was in the room opposite his.
Su Wan was very happy to receive Gu Chu's call.
"Chuchu, have you eaten? How are you all doing?"
Gu Chu: "What do you mean, 'how is it'? It's just like that."
Su Wan asked in confusion, "What do you mean by 'like that'? There's no spark at all?"
"There won't be any sparks, but cremation is possible, though that will be decades from now. Now, let's get down to business. I'm heading back this afternoon. Want to come along?"
"I haven't decided yet. Anyway, I don't have anything else to do, so I'll stay here for a couple of days. Domestic travel is something I've always wanted to do."
Su Wan didn't want to go back to City A. She had just received a text message from an unknown number saying that they had seen Su Hu in City C.
She immediately called the number, only to find it was disconnected.
During this time, she did not give up looking for Su Hu, but Su Hu seemed to have vanished into thin air.
Now that she suddenly has a lead, she's determined to give it a try.
Being deceived by her master into selling herself to the Gu family for 50 million yuan became an insurmountable obstacle in her heart.
"Do you want me to come with you?" Gu Chu asked.
Su Wan refused, saying that the fewer people who knew about this, the better, because if they alerted the suspect, the clues might be lost.
"No need, you should spend some time with your brother-in-law. I can tell he's a good man." Su Wan called him that title very naturally.
"What benefits has he given you that you're speaking up for him like this? I've said it before, I will never fall in love with any man," Gu Chu said.
Su Wan smiled and said, "I know, but that doesn't stop him from liking you. People online say that it's better to marry someone who likes you than someone you like. Love and being loved are the only ways to be happy."
She believed that Rong Shi would eventually fall in love with Gu Chu.
In Su Wan's eyes, Gu Chu was the most outstanding girl in the world and the best person to her; no one could dislike her.
Gu Chu realized what was happening and exclaimed, "You actually brainwashed me?"
“This isn’t PUA, it’s reality. Listen to me this once, try getting along with your brother-in-law. He seems like a cold-faced but warm-hearted person, which is perfect for you,” Su Wan said sincerely.
Gu Chu didn't want to talk about such boring topics with her. "Then have fun. I have to go back first. Contact me anytime if you need anything."
"Okay, bye-bye!"
After hanging up the phone, Gu Chu looked up and saw Rong Shi standing at the door.
She was startled instinctively: "Why do you walk so quietly?"
Rong Shi said calmly, "The car is ready. I'll take you to the high-speed rail station."
He heard everything Gu Chu said. Although he didn't eavesdrop on intentionally, things just happened to be that way.
As soon as the two left the camp, Xiao Yating ran out again.
She reached out and pulled them along, saying, "You, get down, let's talk!"
Xiao Yating pointed angrily at Gu Chu.
"Xiao Yating, you...!"
Just as Rong Shi was about to get out of the car to teach Xiao Yating a lesson, Gu Chu stopped him.
"It's okay, I'll go talk to her."
After Gu Chu finished speaking, she got out of the car.
The two walked to the side.
"Speak, what do you want to say?" Gu Chu looked at Xiao Yating.
Xiao Ya hesitated for a moment before speaking: "You and Brother Shi are not in the same circle at all, let alone on the same level!"
Hearing this blatant provocation, Gu Chu sneered: "What a joke! What kind of circle are you, a sheepfold or a pigsty? He and I shared a bed. As for the level you mentioned, I have even more authority to speak on that. I've tried the position of me on top and him on the bottom, and I've also experienced what it's like for him to be on top and me on the bottom. What about you? What have you seen besides his face?"
Xiao Yating was surprised by how capable Gu Chu was. She was speechless for a moment, her face turning red, unsure whether it was from anger or embarrassment.
After a long pause, he finally managed to utter a few words: "You're so shameless!"
"I have a face, you can have it if you want it." Gu Chu said, then turned and left with a flourish.
"You wait! I won't give up on Brother Shi!" Xiao Yating shouted helplessly at Gu Chu.
Gu Chu didn't take it to heart; she just wasn't going to give up on Rong Shi. Even if Xiao Yating said she wouldn't let her go, she wasn't afraid.
A mere girl like her, trying to fight against someone who has been reborn?
She probably really doesn't know her own limitations!
Suddenly, Gu Chu changed her mind.
There's no rush to go back to City A. This arrogant brat has openly provoked her. If she doesn't play along, wouldn't she seem like a coward?
Gu Chu returned to the car, and Rong Shi stared intently at her.
He overheard Gu Chu and Xiao Yating's conversation. There was nothing he could do; his hearing was too good. He could hear everything within a hundred meters. As a result, he had made many outstanding achievements as soon as he joined the army, thanks to his "divine ears." Moreover, due to his excellent physical and mental qualities, he was promoted three times at a young age.
"What's wrong?"
Gu Chu noticed Rong Shi's strange look and felt inexplicably guilty.
