Chapter 535: To Her Tastes

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

As Su Li dashed inside, Su Bing watched as a woman descended from the driver’s seat of the car. She sported a neat, short haircut, army green cargo pants, and a grey shirt tucked into her waistband. A pair of black Doc Martens adorned her feet, and a camera hung around her neck. She was in the midst of a conversation with a man who had also exited the vehicle, her gaze as sharp and unwavering as a hawk’s.

Su Bing felt a sudden jolt in his heart. Despite his urban schooling, he had never encountered a woman dressed in such a manner. Was this what a journalist looked like?

In Su Bing’s eyes, this woman exuded a unique, cool aura. She seemed to be a pioneer of modern trends, redefining what it meant to be a woman.

She bore a slight resemblance to Gu Zi’s mother in that when you looked at her, your first thought wasn’t about her being someone’s wife or mother. Instead, you thought about her as an individual.

For instance, you might think about her name and her profession as a female journalist. She was a striking, trend-setting woman, different from the norm. This didn’t mean that traditional, typical women weren’t worthy of recognition. Women were a diverse group, and they should be allowed to express themselves in myriad ways.

In the moment Su Bing was lost in thought, the short-haired woman had already approached him. After giving him a once-over, she turned her gaze to the unassuming signboard of a shop nearby. It bore five characters of varying sizes that read “Sister Hua’s Gourmet Shop”. From her angle, the last character was partially obscured by a wooden board leaning against the wall.

A thrill of delight surged within her. This shop was indeed to her taste, casual and wonderful.

She took the initiative to greet the boy, “Hello, I’m Guan Xin, a reporter from Guangcheng Daily Life. Nice to meet you!”

Su Bing, encountering such a person for the first time, was somewhat at a loss. However, he quickly extended his hand in response to her handshake, aware that it was a customary greeting. He replied with apparent nonchalance, “Hello, I’m Su Bing, the eldest son of Gu Zi, a partner of this shop. The shop owner is my aunt.”

Guan Xin’s pupils dilated slightly, and a friendly yet intrigued smile played on her lips. “How old are you? You’re so composed, such a formal response. But that’s good, I think you’ll grow up to be a very charming man! This is my assistant, Xiao Luo.”

Guan Xin stepped aside, allowing a tall, handsome young man who was a head taller than her to step forward. He greeted Su Bing in a typical male fashion, bumping fists, then smiled appreciatively. “You don’t look like a country boy at all, so calm and composed. Oh, is that your sister? She’s beautiful!”

Xiao Luo had spotted Gu Zi, who was emerging from the shop. She was stunningly beautiful, her beauty soothing and comfortable. Su Li followed behind her, trailed by Li Hua and others. Gu Zi also greeted them with a smile, “Hello, I’m Gu Zi, a partner of the shop. Nice to meet you. Please come in! You must be reporter Guan Xin?”

Gu Zi recalled what she knew about this woman. Guan Xin, a renowned reporter from Guangcheng Daily Life, came from a high-ranking family but was not your typical privileged child. She was very close to the people, and her interviews often revolved around the common folk. She was dedicated to focusing the public’s attention on ordinary people.

So the original owner of her body greatly admired her, often buying Guangcheng Daily Life to read her articles. Gu Zi was a bit confused. If the original owner admired such independent women, why did she later abandon her studies to marry Gong Zhan? Love truly blinds people.

Gu Zi led Guan Xin and Xiao Luo into the shop. They didn’t plan to sit down but headed straight for the kitchen. Guan Xin asked, “How did you know I’d be more interested in seeing your dishes first?”

Li Hua had already gone to the kitchen to prepare. She felt that Gu Zi was better suited to handle the socializing and chatting, and she could learn by watching.

Gu Zi made a welcoming gesture and said, “You may not know this, but I’m a big fan of yours. I’ve been reading your reports since high school, so I know you like to get straight to the point.”

“Take a look, these are our signature breakfast dishes, spicy soup and snacks, usually only served during breakfast hours. This is our seasonal dessert for the recent period, peanut curd. We’ve prepared some samples for you to try.”
