With Ling Yin and Warrens at the Luo family home, and seeing that her aunt was alright, Luo Shi returned to China.
………
Ji Zhinan and Gu Yibei rushed to the hotel after receiving Luo Shi's message, and Luo Shi was already waiting for them when they arrived.
Hearing a sound from the doorway, Luo Shi looked up and immediately smiled: "Young Master Gu, Nan Nan."
Ji Zhinan and Gu Yibei walked in side by side.
"President Luo."
Luo Shi smiled and said, "We're all acquaintances, calling me President Luo is too formal. I'm a few years older than you, so if you don't mind, you can call me brother."
While thinking to myself: Your dad went all the way to the US to pursue my aunt and even called my dad "brother," so it's not a loss for you to call me "brother" too. It's only a matter of time.
"..." Ji Zhinan glanced at Gu Yibei, and the couple exchanged a look.
Does this mean they know the truth or not?
They probably don't know yet; if they did, they wouldn't say that.
However, Luo Shi was indeed Ji Zhinan's cousin, so Ji Zhinan didn't stand on ceremony: "Brother."
Luo Shi, who grew up alone without any siblings, felt instantly relieved when she heard Ji Zhinan's soft "brother".
So this is what it feels like to have a younger sister; it's a little bit of happiness.
"Yes!" Luo Shi agreed quickly, hurriedly pulling out a chair for his sister.
"I just ordered some simple dishes. Order whatever you want. The tablet is here..."
With all this fuss and activity, and before the truth has even come out, things have already turned out like this. Gu Yibei doesn't even need to think about the future anymore; he has no doubt that another sister-obsessed guy has appeared.
Gu Yibei's expression at this moment: (?_?).
Ji Zhinan used the tablet to order some more dishes. The hotel served the food very quickly, and all the dishes were served in just over ten minutes.
Gu Yibei picked up the small kettle next to him, intending to scald the tableware for his wife. But before he could finish, someone else took the tableware from Ji Zhinan.
Luo Shi rinsed the bowls, plates, and chopsticks three times with hot water before placing them back in front of Ji Zhinan, and then offered her a thoughtful greeting.
What would you like to eat?
Gu Yibei, whose job was stolen: "..."
Ji Zhinan has been enjoying seafood lately. Seeing a plate of lobster that was quite far away from her, she remarked, "The lobster at this restaurant seems pretty good."
Luo Shi understood immediately. He turned the turntable to bring the dish to his front, picked up the disposable gloves the waiter had given him, put them on, carefully pinched an Australian lobster, meticulously cleaned the shell, removed the large piece of shrimp meat and the head, and then placed it in front of Ji Zhinan.
He took off a disposable glove from one hand and picked up a clean small spoon: "It's still a little hot, be careful when you eat it."
"Thank you...brother?"
"Good girl." Luo Shi felt relaxed and happy.
Gu Yibei, who felt like an outsider: "..."
I don't know if it's a misfortune or a blessing in disguise. Everyone else's families are full of loving couples, happy and harmonious. He already has a doting father-in-law who spoils his daughter, and a doting cousin. Now, he's got another cousin who treats his sister like a princess. He even steals his job of peeling shrimp, and the way he looks at her with such doting eyes is like he's practically feeding her.
Fortunately, they are all related by blood; otherwise, having such a rival in love would be a real headache.
Luo Shi raised his glass and talked to Gu Yibei. Gu Yibei smiled on the surface, but was actually cursing.
Seeing that Ji Zhinan had almost finished eating the shrimp, Luo Shi was about to ask again when Gu Yibei immediately put a lot of Ji Zhinan's favorite dishes on her plate.
