All the madams looked at Gu Rou. Although Gu Rou was flustered, she did not show it on her face.
She sounded aggrieved and said in a choked voice, “Mrs. Zhou, why don’t you believe me? Although I don’t dare to say I’m a great sister, I won’t snatch what my sister likes from her.”
Mrs. Zhou looked at Gu Rou and couldn’t help but suspect that she had misunderstood Gu Rou.
“Alright, it’s not a big deal. I’ll ask Gu Man later.”
Mrs. Zhou picked up a piece of Queen’s Belly Mushroom and placed it in Gu Rou’s bowl and stopped harping on this matter.
When Gu Rou heard that Mrs. Zhou still did not believe her, she panicked. However, when she saw the food that Mrs. Zhou gave her, she could only say, “Thank you.”
The atmosphere at the table started to warm up again.
Someone said, “I saw Gu Man just now. These two sisters have their own characteristics, but I have to say that they’re both beauties.”
Gu Rou’s heart skipped a beat. Gu Man was eating here too?
Thinking of Gu Man’s sarcastic attitude towards her, if Mrs. Zhou asked about the bag, Gu Man would definitely not cooperate with her.
She smiled dryly and asked, “You guys met my sister?”
Madam Zhang asked in surprise, “Didn’t you know that your sister came out? She didn’t tell your family?”
Gu Rou wanted to say something but hesitated. After a while, she said, “My sister is a little independent.”
This sentence sounded like she was saying that Gu Man was good, but looking at Gu Rou’s careful expression, they knew that Gu Man should be someone with an eccentric personality who ignored the discipline at home.
Gu Rou was smug when she saw everyone’s expressions.
Madam Zhang asked again, “Then who is she eating with now? She’s a high school student. If she’s with friends of the same age, she won’t come here to spend, right?”
The price point of this restaurant was not low, and it was a boring place for teenagers.
“I don’t know either. I heard that some rich and malicious men like to treat high school girls to a meal. Do you think Gu Man will be tricked into coming?” Gu Rou looked very anxious.
“No way? I just saw her. She looks like a calm and thoughtful child. I was praising her with Mrs. Zhou.” One of the ladies was surprised.
“You don’t know this, but Gu Man didn’t have a good life in the countryside before. My parents were especially tolerant of her and couldn’t bear to educate her strictly. That’s why her personality became like this. That’s why I’m worried about her.”
Someone said to Madam Zhang, “Look, your son has good taste. His girlfriend is so sensible.”
Madam Zhang smiled and nodded. She thought to herself that it was a pity that the Gu family’s current status was too low and would not be of much help to her son. Instead, they needed the Zhang family’s support. Otherwise, it would be perfect.
However, Mrs. Zhou frowned slightly. According to what she had seen last night, the parents of the Gu family were not tolerant of Gu Man. Instead, they were harsh with their words, as if they could not bear to see Gu Man doing well.
Gu Rou’s words seemed to be exaggerated.
“Do you know which booth my sister is at? I want to go over and take a look. Even if it’s a misunderstanding and she scolds me, I’ll feel at ease.”
Gu Rou guessed that there was definitely something fishy about Gu Man coming here to eat.
As far as she knew, Gu Man had no friends in Han City, so it must be some rich person who was treating her to a meal. If she could catch them red-handed, she would not be able to survive in Han City.
“Silly girl, you’re doing this for her. If she dares to scold you, I’ll be the first to scold her.”
Madam Zhang’s impression of Gu Man became even worse. She was someone who could not tell right from wrong. As expected, they should not have fulfilled the engagement.
Mrs. Zhou’s frown deepened. She said in a low voice, “Gu Rou, you keep saying that you’re thinking for your sister. Then why do you have to embarrass Gu Man now? No matter if it’s true or not, how can Gu Man not be embarrassed by what you’re doing?”
“But when I think about how Gu Man is having a meal with a stranger, I feel anxious. She just came back from the countryside and doesn’t have any friends in Han City. She doesn’t interact with her schoolmates either. How can she come here for a meal?”
Gu Rou’s analysis made the madams nod repeatedly. “Then it looks like we really have to go take a look. Don’t let her do anything stupid.”
When Gu Rou heard this, she was smug, especially if Zhang Yue’s mother saw it herself. How could Gu Man still have the cheek to pester Zhang Yue in the future?
