When Wei Shu heard that they were going to eat hotpot, her eyes lit up. She was originally a little too shy to look at Gu Xiao, but now, she took the initiative to look in her direction.
“Xiaoxiao, are we really going to eat hotpot?” Wei Shu’s voice was filled with anticipation.
Gu Xiao lowered her eyes slightly and looked at Wei Shu, as if she was looking at a younger sister who was many years younger than her.
“Yes, 1 heard that it tastes good. Does Xiaoshu like to eat hotpot?” It was supposed to sound like a question, but when Gu Xiao said it, it became a confirmation.
Wei Shu nodded. “Yes, 1 like it. Hotpot is delicious!”
“I like hotpot too, but 1 can only eat medium spicy food,” Jiang Meng said from the side.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtWei Shu held Jiang Meng’s hand and shook it. “I also eat medium spicy food.”
As she spoke, she looked at Gu Xiao. “What flavor does Xiaoxiao eat?”
Gu Xiao smiled slightly. “Medium spicy is fine.”
She did like spicy food. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have chosen hotpot when there were so many delicious food around. Of course, there was another reason why she chose hotpot. It was easier to get closer to others through eating hotpot.
Initially, she thought that if Jiang Meng and Wei Shu were unwilling to eat hotpot, she would bring the two of them to eat stir-fried dishes.
However, from the looks of it now, her choice of hotpot seemed to be the right choice.
At the very least, the three of them could eat together.
When they arrived at the hotpot restaurant, Jiang Meng and Wei Shu initially still had some reservations due to Gu Xiao and could not really relax.
However, halfway through the meal, the two of them saw that Gu Xiao did not put on any airs at all. She was completely different from the rich families they had seen online. They completely let go and even took the initiative to invite Gu Xiao to eat.
Previously, if Jiang Meng and Wei Shu still had a barrier between them and Gu Xiao and felt that it was unreal, then after eating this hotpot meal, they felt that Gu Xiao was really standing in front of them, a calm but somewhat tolerant big sister.
Although Wei Shu was older than Gu Xiao and Jiang Meng was only two months younger than Gu Xiao, when facing Gu Xiao, the two of them felt that Gu Xiao was the oldest.
After the three of them finished their lunch, Gu Xiao received a message from Chu An just as they reached the dormitory building.
Gu Xiao turned on her phone and glanced at the message. Then, she looked up at Jiang Meng and Wei Shu.
“Chu An said that he needs to see me for something, so I’ll leave first.”
Upon hearing this, Jiang Meng and Wei Shu’s eyes lit up. They even boldly waved at Gu Xiao and asked her to hurry up.
“Hurry up and go. Don’t let Mr. Chu wait too long,” Jiang Meng hurriedly said.
Chu An and Gu Xiao weren’t much older than them, but when Jiang Meng and Wei Shu faced Chu An, it was very difficult for them to treat him as their peer. This was a feeling that even Gu Xiao had never given them.
Therefore, when she addressed Chu An, the term “Mr. Chu” automatically came out of Jiang Meng’s mouth.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmWei Shu did not notice anything wrong. She even nodded at Gu Xiao as if she agreed with Jiang Meng.
However… when she heard the way the two of them addressed Chu An, Gu Xiao looked at the two of them strangely.
Seeing that the two of them seemed to really feel that there was nothing wrong with this form of address, Gu Xiao didn’t say anything else. She just planned in her heart that when she met Chu An later, she would definitely tell him about this interesting matter.
Gu Xiao bade farewell to Jiang Meng and Wei Shu before walking in the direction Chu An had mentioned.
When Gu Xiao arrived at the place she had agreed to meet Chu An at, she saw that Chu An was already waiting there.
When Gu Xiao saw Chu An’s figure, she quickened her pace without even noticing.
“Why are you looking for me so urgently?” Gu Xiao walked to Chu An’s side. After slightly calming down her racing heart, she asked Chu An in confusion.
Chu An stretched out his hand and lightly patted Gu Xiao’s back.
When the other party’s breathing calmed down, he explained, “Dad and Mom just sent me a message. They said that they bought us a house in a neighborhood near A University. They told us to stay in the neighborhood when we don’t want to stay in school. Do you want to take a look now?”
Gu Xiao was a little speechless when she heard this.
She had not expected that just when they had stopped Mr Chu and Mrs Chu from sending them off, Mr Chu and Mrs Chu gave them a house directly. “When did Uncle and Auntie buy the house? Did they give you the key?” Gu Xiao asked curiously..
