It was not until half past nine that the number of customers in the small restaurant gradually decreased.
Father Gu cooked a few dishes, found an empty table, and the family sat down to eat.
This is how the catering industry works. You can’t eat at normal meal times.
"Come on! Xiaoxiao, eat quickly!"
Although Gu's mother didn't like Su Xiaoxiao very much, she still respected her as a guest.
They are still here to "help", so even if they are always making things worse, out of courtesy you still have to show some appreciation.
Mother Gu used a chopping board to pick up a piece of chicken leg for Su Xiaoxiao. She greeted her not too enthusiastically but not too rudely either.
"Um!"
Su Xiaoxiao actually wanted to leave. Sitting at the same table with Gu Qingcheng, she felt even more inferior.
But it was already so late, and it was definitely not safe for her to go home alone.
Gu Sinian will definitely send her home.
But no matter how much Su Xiaoxiao doesn't consider herself an outsider, she can't let Gu Sinian send her off on an empty stomach.
So, in many cases, Su Xiaoxiao knows etiquette and understands the truth.
The key point is whether she is willing to "put her heart into it".
Today doesn't seem to be a good time to be willful.
Su Xiaoxiao could only lower her head, holding the bowl, looking timid.
Gu Sinian has indeed become much more sober, but he is still a kind and upright young man.
As for Su Xiaoxiao, she is reckless and even a little stupid.
Her nature shouldn't be bad.
At most, it's good intentions leading to bad results.
Besides, the two have been classmates and friends for several years.
Seeing her so timid and uncomfortable, Gu Sinian still felt a little pity for her.
He smiled at Su Xiaoxiao and said softly, "Eat quickly! After you finish, I'll take you home!"
"Um!"
This response was obviously more confident.
Su Xiaoxiao seemed to draw strength from Gu Sinian.
If it were in the past, seeing Su Xiaoxiao relying on him so much, Gu Sinian would definitely be overwhelmed with "male chauvinism" and would have the urge to be Su Xiaoxiao's protector.
However, just now, Gu Sinian experienced another "tragic contrast" and saw certain facts clearly, so he was not so "overwhelmed".
He turned his eyes away and started to eat his meal.
Su Xiaoxiao also lowered her head and ate silently.
This boy and girl have a surprising amount of similarity.
Gu Qingcheng smiled and said jokingly, "You two really live up to the saying 'childhood sweethearts'."
Su Xiaoxiao raised her head suddenly, as if she was frightened.
Su Xiaoxiao's pretty face showed obvious resistance: I am a good student, I, I don't have premature love.
"Actually, even if it's puppy love, it's nothing! As long as it doesn't interfere with your studies, there's nothing wrong with having a relationship."
Gu Qingcheng said this with a smile, as if she was joking, but also as if she was serious.
She turned around and said to Gu's parents, "Dad! Mom! Am I right?"
Both Gu's father and mother are open-minded parents who respect their children.
Although they do not approve of their children falling in love early, they prefer to believe their children.
Moreover, with only ten days left before the college entrance examination, they dared not "act rashly."
If the child's rebellious psychology is aroused and affects his exams, it will be too late for parents to regret!
"right!"
Father Gu laughed and said something in a vague way.
"Yes! As long as it doesn't affect their studies and there's healthy mutual support, we as parents will naturally not object!"
Mother Gu thought more than Father Gu, and she also gave a few reminders when she spoke.
Su Xiaoxiao's face turned pale instantly. She hurriedly shook her head, "No! No puppy love! Classmate Gu and I are just ordinary friends!"
Tall, good-looking, and excellent in academics, Gu Sinian is definitely a middle school idol.
As a girl, Su Xiaoxiao naturally likes to dream, and she regards Gu Sinian as the prince charming in her dreams.
But now is really not the time to fall in love prematurely.
She still has to take the college entrance exam, and she can't be the target of everyone's criticism in school.
Gu Sinian clenched the clasp tightly.
Haha, I seem to be being too sentimental.
Ordinary friends?
Would an ordinary friend come to his house every day to report?
Would an ordinary friend put his arm around his shoulder and hold his hand?
Will ordinary friends treat him as a support and always look at him with focused eyes?
Gu Sinian reads a lot, and there are classmates in school who are secretly in love.
And Su Xiaoxiao's attitude towards Gu Sinian is similar to those of young boys and girls who fall in love early!
It was because of Su Xiaoxiao's initiative and enthusiasm that Gu Sinian slowly opened his heart.
As a result, although he was attracted to her, she still treated him as an ordinary friend!
Good! What a normal friend!
Gu Sinian's mind became somewhat clearer, and he became more sober and rational!
The next day, he went to school and asked for leave.
As the college entrance examination is approaching, some students go home to prepare for the exam.
Gu Sinian has always been the top student in the grade, and the teacher has great confidence in him.
"Okay! Then you can review at home. If there's anything going on at school, the teacher will call you!"
The head teacher gave a few instructions and then approved Gu Sinian's leave.
At noon, Gu Sinian moved the books, papers, exercise books, etc. back home.
After school in the afternoon, Su Xiaoxiao looked at the empty desk in the back row in a daze.
She cautiously asked questions to Gu Sinian's deskmate.
"Gu Sinian, he asked for leave and went home! He said it would be better for him to review at home!"
"Hey, that's not right, Su Xiaoxiao, aren't you good friends with Gu Sinian? He asked for leave, but he didn't even tell you?"
No!
