Chapter 291

Nan XiangWan slept until late in the evening and woke up groggily, groping for her phone.

Gu Beihuai: It's 5 o'clock, are you awake?

Gu Beihuai: It's 6 o'clock, want to eat?

Gu Beihuai: Wake up and come to my house, I've made some dishes.

Gu Beihuai: [Picture]

The photo showed Buddha Jumps Over the Wall soup, sweet and sour ribs, stir fried chicken offal, roasted squab, crystal dumplings, fish soup...

Nan XiangWan sprang up with a grunt!

She hurriedly got changed, washed up, and rushed out with messy hair.

The fence between the two families' aerial garden had disappeared, and the ground was also flattened, but there were still some bumps.

Nan XiangWan was a little doubtful. She didn't need to climb over the fence today!

Sure enough, she could already smell the aroma of dishes even before she arrived, making her salivate.

It had been so long since she ate her comrade's home cooking. She missed it.

The sliding door wasn't locked. Nan XiangWan could go right in, rushed downstairs, and the dining room was filled with fragrant smells.

Gu Beihuai wiped his hands and dished out rice: "Eat up, little lazy pig."

Sleeping from morning till night, that's just you.

Nan XiangWan sat down and started eating. She hadn't eaten her fill at breakfast anyway, and was extremely hungry now.

Gu Beihuai ate slowly and neatly, casually turning on the TV to watch entertainment news.

Both he and Nan XiangWan had been busy with military district training and filming variety shows recently, so they didn't pay attention to gossip from the industry. He wondered if there was any explosive news.

Nan XiangWan was focused on eating, but suddenly heard an uncomfortable voice from the screen.

She looked up. It was an interview with Tan Shen.

Gu Beihuai's eyebrows furrowed slightly, but he didn't change the channel.

On screen, Tan Shen was dressed appropriately with a sincere, gentle smile on his face.

Tan Shen: "I'm sorry everyone. I've disappointed you all."

He apologized first, then slowly started explaining.

He said many things, the key points being that seeing a vicious dog bite someone when he was little gave him a fear of stray dogs. So killing the dog was an accident, etc.

Nan XiangWan slammed down her chopsticks!

She was itching to leap into the screen and punch Tan Shen.

Gu Beihuai rapped the table gently. "Eat your food."

Nan XiangWan picked up her chopsticks again. It was all her favorite meaty dishes.

Oh well, it was for the sake of the food.

Gu Beihuai glanced at online opinion trends. As expected, major platforms already had negative commentaries ready.

Tan Shen was still standing there laughing, staring at Gu Beihuai's back until he disappeared.

In the VIP lounge, Nan XiangWan sat with legs crossed casually. Her 1.69m height made her long legs stand out no matter how she sat.

Beside her, Xiao Dong snapped pictures excitedly. Her Lady South looked so good!

Gu Beihuai walked in, about to recount his airport encounter with Tan Shen. But as he approached, he heard Xiao Dong's endless flattery.

Xiao Dong: "Marry me, Lady South! Lady South so handsome! Lady South and your long legs, I'm your worshipper!"

Gu Beihuai: "!!!"

Was this assistant his rival in love???

Gu Beihuai's gaze towards Xiao Dong instantly turned unpleasant.

Xiao Dong was still praising happily. Nan XiangWan was also basking smugly. Suddenly, they both felt a chill next to them.

They looked up to see Gu Beihuai standing there with a dark expression.

Xiao Dong rubbed her arms: "Why is it so cold in summer? Is the aircon too low?"

Nan XiangWan also pulled her collar tighter: "Freezing me!"

Seeing them continue chatting so obliviously, Gu Beihuai sat down heavily between them, shoving Xiao Dong aside!

Xiao Dong: "???"

Nan XiangWan: "......"

The weird atmosphere persisted till the three boarded the plane.

Little Dong bounded happily into business class, still clueless.

She was definitely the luckiest assistant in showbiz!

What assistant got to take business class?

Teehee, she, Xiao Dong could!

Nan XiangWan and Gu Beihuai were in first class with adjacent seats.

Soon after takeoff, Nan XiangWan was eating snacks given by the flight attendant.

Gu Beihuai suddenly said, "Do you still need more assistants? Want me to introduce a few more?"

He felt that edging Xiao Dong out was unrealistic. It'd be better to divert her attention with a few more assistants instead.

Nan XiangWan: "No need! Xiao Dong's worth ten others. She's an all-rounder."

Gu Beihuai: "You should have a backup assistant in case Xiao Dong gets married or pregnant someday, with no one to replace her. What would you do?"

Nan XiangWan: "Good point, comrade thinks of everything!"

Gu Beihuai: "Yup, hire a few more."

Nan XiangWan: "I'll tell Xiao Dong not to marry so fast, work a few more years."

Gu Beihuai: "......"

Nice, he spoke for nothing huh?
