"No, Auntie, her brother and sister are still waiting for her to go back and cook dinner." Qiao Ruo had just met the two little kids from the Feng family. They were only around seven or eight years old, so she didn't know how to do anything yet.

"Sigh, the old Feng family is such a rotten mess. Madam, you've been kneading mahjong all day, and all of the household chores fell to Yan Er. You've delayed this child." Qiao Qingya said with regret.

Qiao Ruo met Feng Yan Er's mother for the first time. She wore a qipao, high-heeled shoes, had fashionable curly hair, and smoked cheap cigarettes. She spent her days on the mahjong table, not bothering about any chores at home.

Feng Yaner never brought up the matter of her mother on her own accord, and Qiao Ruo didn't ask, afraid that it would hurt her heart.

Thinking that Lin Junmai's money could help Feng Yaner a lot, Qiao Ruozhu couldn't help but feel some joy in her heart.

The next day she put on an apricot top and a green skirt and stockings and went to school early.

As soon as he entered the school gates, Qiao Ruquan's thoughts were all on his homework.

During class break, there was someone pointing at her from behind, but no one knew what they were talking about.

She couldn't feel anything at all, and Yao Sitong couldn't stand it any longer. He walked over to the girls and asked, "What are you guys talking about?"

"We're talking about the future young mistress of the Gu family." A girl with curly hair on her muscular waist intentionally looked at Qiao Ruoxi and said sourly.

It turned out that the news of Gu Jun coming to pick her up had spread far and wide.

Qiao Ruo Chu heard it too.

She ignored him.

"I wonder if Young Noble Zhi will come back today?" "I didn't see it yesterday. I heard it looks quite handsome." Another girl had joined their camp.

Yao Sitong was so angry that her face turned pale. She didn't know how to explain herself, so she could only bitterly sit back at Qiao Ruochen's side.

"What were they talking about you at first?" she said, aggrieved.

"I know." Qiao Ruo Chu replied indifferently.

The class was in an uproar.

Gu Wanjia passed through the corridor outside.

Today, she was wearing a tight-fitting qipao embroidered with blue gold silk and a thin windbreaker. She had a pair of long, thin, curved eyebrows and a rose lipstick on her lips. Her lips were like the petals of a rose in full bloom.

The girls in the class all watched her walk over.

"So beautiful." Someone exclaimed.

Qiao Ruo Chu also glanced at it. Seeing that it was Gu Wan Jia, she turned her head to continue reading her book. She wasn't tired from class at all, she didn't need the classroom at all.

After school in the afternoon, she was worried about meeting Gu Jun again, so she told Yang Sitong that she would be late so she had to leave early.

The girls' school was almost empty before she slowly walked out.

He crossed the street and waved to the rickshaw driver.

"Ru Chu, why did you come out so late?" Someone called to her.

He saw Gu Jun, dressed like a male student of Xiang Cheng Middle School, walking towards her from a short distance away.

Yesterday was too eye-catching. He didn't drive today, and his clothes were much simpler.

His deliberate low profile did not affect his elegant and graceful temperament in the slightest. No matter what, he seemed to have an extraordinary status.

Qiao Ruo Chu smiled awkwardly. "I want to stay at school for a while longer."

"Can I treat you to dinner tonight?" He felt a little shy.

"Sure." Qiao Ruo Chu said frankly.

Qiao Qingya privately told her that a young man like Gu Jun was rare. His birth was good, his education was good, and most precious of all, he didn't have any of the habits or habits of a good-for-nothing.

He said it very clearly.

All in all, he agreed that Qiao Ruo Chu would go out with him and didn't reject the idea of marriage in the future.

Qiao Ruo Chu trusted her father's judgement. In addition to her few interactions with Gu Jun, she discovered that he was a really good person who matched up with the ideal partner in the books.

Therefore, she felt a bit of excitement towards Gu Jun in her heart.

Seeing that she agreed so readily, Gu Jun was overjoyed. He actually grabbed one of her small hands and pulled it over to the rickshaw.

His fingers were slender and smooth, and his palms were warm. He held Qiao Ruo Chu's cold little hand in a neither light nor heavy manner, causing her face to turn slightly red. It was hard to avoid being restrained.

"Ruo Chu, my family will host a dinner at the hotel the day after tomorrow. You and Uncle Qiao can come as well." He looked at her sideways in the rickshaw.

"Banquet?" Qiao Ruchu blinked her eyelashes.

"Well, the Four Symbols asked my father to take the lead and invite Commander Shen and Chief of Staff Lin to meet with friends from all walks of life in the city." he said flatly.

There was a hint of disdain on Gu Jun's face when he talked about his father's social interaction.

When Qiao Ruo Chu heard the words' Lin Jun Mai ', she suddenly withdrew her hand from his. "Those who have come are of famous clans and clans. Those who are members of the Qiao Family or small families, let's not go and join in on the fun." She flatly refused.

Gu Jun was silent for a moment.

"My father should have already sent an invitation to Uncle Qiao. Uncle Qiao will not refuse, all the merchants of the Xiang City will come. " Kenji said objectively.

"What are you afraid of? It's not like we're the main characters, we're just meeting people. " Gu Jun didn't know why she had rejected him so straightforwardly, but he patiently advised her.

In the time it took for him to speak, he had already arrived at a private restaurant in the south alley. This place was secluded and quiet, and it was close by to the Yanzhou Garden.

He asked Qiao Ruo to start ordering dishes.

She ordered a steamed bass, some vegetables, and then added a dish of Dongpo meat and a dessert. She repeatedly told the shopkeeper to make it more delicious.

"Shall I accompany you to buy an evening dress after dinner?" While waiting for the dishes to arrive, Ku Jun suggested.

"I haven't decided yet." Qiao Ruo smiled, revealing her neat and shiny little teeth. She was quite mischievous.

He had spoken to her for a long time, but she hadn't replied.

He quickly changed the subject and started to talk about his school-days. Qiao Ruochu was very interested and continued to giggle.

When he finished his meal, it was already dark. There was a drizzle in the air, and the rain felt cool on his face.

Gu Jun didn't bring an umbrella. He usually drove when he went out, and the umbrella was always on the car. He had forgotten to bring it with him when he came out today.

He apologetically said to Qiao Ruoxi, "I'm sorry, I'll go buy an umbrella later."

Qiao Ruo pulled him back. "My home is very close, there's no need. "Hurry up and go back."

Gu Jun insisted on escorting her to the Yan Garden entrance. When Meng Ma saw the person, she ran out and said, "Aiya, Young Noble Zhi is here, hurry and enter the house."

Gu Jun waved his hand, and coincidentally, a rickshaw just arrived nearby. He said goodbye to Qiao Ruoxi, then turned around and left.

"Who's here?" Qiao Qingya asked with a smile as soon as he entered the door.

Qiao Ruo Chu knew that her father had already heard Mama Meng's words and was purposely teasing him. She covered her face and said, "Abba, you're joking with your daughter. You're annoying."
