Su Luo asked in shock, "Your cousin?"
Gu Xiaojiu nodded.
"Yeah, what's wrong?"
Su Luo shook her head.
"nothing."
It's just a pity that the child committed suicide so easily.
Fate plays tricks on people.
Now, Su Jianni's boyfriend is actually Long Aotian's cousin.
Su Luo calmed herself down and changed the subject.
"By the way, are you studying or working now?"
"I am studying at Kyoto University, majoring in fashion design."
A look of surprise flashed in Su Luo's eyes.
I never expected this kid to get into such a good school.
What do your parents do for a living?
Su Jianni, with a straw in her mouth, tilted her head curiously and looked at Gu Xiaojiu.
Despite having known Gu Xiaojiu for so many years, he still had considerable contact with him after returning to China.
But she was naive; she only used him as a tool to relieve her worries and boredom, and never seriously tried to understand him, so naturally she didn't know about his family situation.
Gu Xiaojiu was clearly taken aback, not expecting Su Luo to be so direct, and swallowed hard.
"They do...the clothing business."
Actually, his father was in the clothing business, and it was a very large and wealthy business. However, he had been married twice and had many mistresses.
My mom owns a bar and has a lot of male and female models working for her; it's a mess.
Before opening the bar, her mother was a dancer at the bar. Her father loved to drink and always wanted her to dance whenever he went. Over time, they developed feelings for each other through drinking.
However, their relationship was not good after they got married, and they have been divorced for many years. They have both found new partners.
He naturally didn't want to reveal the truth to Su Luo, as that would definitely be a negative point.
Su Luo noticed Gu Xiaojiu's unease but didn't press her for details.
Since it's the first time meeting, there's no need to be so serious. He can find out the truth later by having someone check his background.
Therefore, he solemnly stated.
"I don't object to you dating my daughter for now, but you're both still young and in school. You can't let this interfere with your studies. Also, you absolutely cannot bully my daughter. Even though I'm just her adoptive father, she's my biological daughter in my heart. If you bully her, I will never let you get away with it."
"I know, don't worry, I definitely won't bully her, I will treat her well."
Gu Xiaojiu felt a pang of sadness.
How could I dare to bully her?
She's always the one bullying me. She often treats me like I'm not even human. How could I possibly bully her?
Su Luo nodded slightly after receiving Gu Xiaojiu's assurance.
"I trust you."
Su Jiani, standing to the side, felt both happy and sad.
What made me happy was that Su Luo protected me.
What's sad is that he was so foolish as to believe it so easily.
How can you still be so stupid!
Su Luo chatted with Gu Xiaojiu for a few more minutes, then, seeing that it was already dark, she spoke to the two of them.
"You guys go ahead and eat, I should go home too."
Su Jiani was somewhat downcast.
"Oh, goodbye."
Gu Xiaojiu said politely.
Goodbye, Uncle.
As soon as Su Luo stepped out, Su Jianni took a deep breath and praised Gu Xiaojiu without reservation.
"Great! Not bad acting!"
Gu Xiaojiu gave an awkward smile.
"You flatter me."
It wasn't acting; it was genuine emotion. The whole class knew he liked her.
Does Su Jiani really not know?
Just because I never confessed my feelings to her?
That can't be right. It's so obvious. If he doesn't like her, why would he be willing to be her follower?
It seems that Su Jianni was just pretending not to know.
There was nothing he could do; he genuinely didn't dare to confess his feelings.
He knew that Su Jianni didn't like him at all; she just thought he was obedient, useful, and available whenever she called, and she didn't have to take responsibility. She enjoyed that feeling of being superior.
Once he confesses his feelings, Su Jianni will definitely break off her relationship with him, and he won't even have the chance to be her devoted admirer.
Su Jianni reached out and touched the unopened hamburger on the plate. It was already cold. She grabbed the hamburger and threw it into the trash can without hesitation.
"It's cold and won't taste good. You can order again. It's on me today."
Although she was not short of money, and had more money than she could spend, Gu Xiaojiu always paid the bill when they went out to eat.
She never spent a single penny on him. It wasn't that she was stingy, but Gu Xiaojiu always insisted on paying the bill, saying it was his honor to be treated.
Gu Xiaojiu shook her head and insisted.
"No need, I have money."
He then took out his phone and scanned the QR code to order food.
Although his family life wasn't perfect and his parents didn't spend much time with him, they still gave him hundreds of thousands of yuan in pocket money every month, so he was certainly not short of money.
Su Jianni rolled her eyes and said meaningfully.
"Are you really sick?"
Gu Xiaojiu raised her head and gave a self-deprecating smile.
"Yeah, you just realized that?"
I'm not sick, I just like you. If liking you is a disease, then I'm truly terminally ill.
Su Jianni stared at Gu Xiaojiu's beautiful yet bitter eyes, narrowed her eyes slightly, and asked warily.
"You...you don't like me, do you?"
She had never thought of it that way before. She thought he was a pervert who liked to be bullied, while she liked to bully others. That's why he clung to her and never fought back or talked back.
But she just noticed that when she introduced Su Luo as her boyfriend...
Gu Xiaojiu's reaction was very strange; she was obviously very excited, like a child who loves sweets who suddenly received a super huge lollipop.
Gu Xiaojiu panicked, breaking out in a cold sweat, and denied it.
"No, no, I don't like you!"
Su Jiani said with some doubt.
"Really? You don't like me? Then why were you so excited when you heard me and my dad say you were my boyfriend?"
If he really likes me, I'd better stay away from him.
Being alone is fine; it's okay to be alone.
She had no intention of playing any dating games with him; she already had someone she liked and there was absolutely no way she could like anyone else.
Gu Xiaojiu felt even more guilty.
"Are you excited? You must be mistaken."
Damn it.
Was he really that obvious? He was clearly trying to hold back the whole time.
Su Jiani frowned and said fiercely.
"I haven't seen it! Tell me honestly, what exactly happened!"
Gu Xiaojiu tried hard to suppress her inner panic, determined not to let her discover any flaws, and carefully chose her words.
"Ah, maybe I just find it interesting. Think about it, you're like a big sister to me, my boss. Suddenly you're asking me to pretend to be your boss's boyfriend, how embarrassing! It's not wrong for me to get excited, is it?"
As soon as he finished speaking...
Su Jianni fell into a long silence, her face extremely pale.
After a long pause, he finally uttered a sentence.
"You're disgusting..."
"I'm sorry, please don't be angry. I'll try to control myself next time, okay?"
