Su Yuanzhou noticed that Su Qiuge was staring at him as if looking at a gorilla in a zoo. She stared for a long time, and Su Yuanzhou gave a cold snort before he directly passed her by.

Su Yuanzhou pulled out the chair and casually sat down. He didn’t even spare Yang Xue a single glance and immediately started to play with his phone.

Yang Xue frowned when she glanced over at him and saw this. She said to Su Jingkun, who was beside her, “This is how you’re teaching him? To not even greet people?”

Su Jingkun just bowed his head and said, “Since everyone’s here, let’s start the meal. I still have things to do later.”

Su Qiuge also followed suit and sat down.

She was still a little shocked.

Unexpectedly, she actually already met Su Yuanzhou so many times. And every time they met, she left an unforgettable and deep impression on him.

The meal was extremely awkward and no one at the table spoke. After living apart for so long, the common topics they could talk about had been lessened a lot.

In the middle of the meal, Su Jingkun even left to answer a phone call. After taking the phone call, he returned looking apologetic, yet estranged. He said, “I need to meet with a client, I’ll leave first.”

After Su Jingkun left, Su Qiuge saw Yang Xue put down her silverware with dissatisfaction. Then she raised her chin and carefully wiped the corners of her mouth with a napkin. She glanced over and said to Su Qiuge, “The flight’s tonight, I’ll go settle the bill.”

Su Qiuge’s hand that held the fork paused slightly before she nodded.

She looked at Yang Xue’s back and unknowingly, it overlapped with another figure in her mind. Strange emotions emerged in her heart, making her feel uncomfortable.

At this moment, Su Yuanzhou, who was seated across from her, put down his phone and coldly snorted, “Those two really haven’t changed at all. They think they’re the president. Their time is so precious that they can’t afford to delay even a second.”

Su Qiuge withdrew her gaze and supported her chin as she looked at him. In her heart, she thought that Su Yuanzhou’s dislike of this family wasn’t unreasonable.

During the meal just now, she also felt suffocated by how awkward and quiet it was.

This wasn’t a family. To them, it was probably more like a shackle.

Not long after, Su Qiuge heard Su Yuanzhou use WeChat to report the address of the restaurant to someone.

After a short amount of time, a delicate and fair-skinned boy walked towards them. Su Qiuge recognized the boy as the one who came to her class with Su Yuanzhou last time to give her snacks.

Gao Jing greeted Su Qiuge when he walked over. Then, he sat down next to Su Yuanzhou and let out a breath, “It just so happened that I haven’t had dinner yet. Your parents are quite considerate of me, leaving me so many dishes.”

Su Yuanzhou repeatedly sneered, “In what way are they here to have a meal? They’re just going through with the notions.”

Gao Jing stopped talking and immersed himself in eating.

He swiped his phone as he ate. Halfway through, he said, “F*ck, Haizi said he saw Xie Xinglin at a nearby club standing next to the DJ and helping him.”

Su Qiuge was originally dining quietly, but when she heard the words “Xie Xinglin,” she paused slightly before looking over.

Gao Jing didn’t notice Su Qiuge’s gaze and continued to ask, “Do you think Xie Xinglin is really short of money? Last time he worked as the internet cafe’s supervisor, and now he’s helping with this.”

Su Yuanzhou held the steak with a fork as he raised his eyebrows, “How is that possible?”

After a pause, Su Yuanzhou confidently said, “He definitely didn’t go to that club to help out for money. Maybe he’s trying to trick someone into a hookup.”

Su Qiuge, who sat across from them, sprayed out a mouthful of coffee.

It was only then that Su Yuanzhou and Gao Jing realized that there was still a girl in their presence and that they shouldn’t talk as vulgarly and unrestrainedly as usual.

His expression was a little awkward.

Who knew that in the next second, Su Qiuge would nonchalantly ask, “With how he is, does he still need to trick someone into a hookup?”
