Lu Xiaohua opened her mouth awkwardly, but she didn't ask what she wanted to ask.

The waiter had already come up to them and refilled their cups with hot tea, then stood aside and waited.

The round-faced waitress, who had been so angry she couldn't speak, had calmed down. She said a little aggrievedly, "Today is really inexplicable. Captain Lu asked his wife to send Comrade Gu off, and there were waiters serving him the entire time. How did it turn out like this when he arrived at your place?"

It’s over.

Lu Xiaohua was the first to be discouraged. She had made so much effort to have Gu Changhong and Zhou Ruoyu found in the same room, but how could they end up sitting in the lobby?

"Fourth brother, did you ask her to come and send Gu Changhong off?" She asked this stupidly, almost unconsciously.

Lu Qinchuan had no expression on his face and asked coldly, "It wasn't me, could it be that you asked her to come?"

……

Only then did she realize how cold her fourth brother's eyes were when he looked at her. She stammered, "No, no, it wasn't me. I thought she was the one who was going to send Gu Changhong off."

The brother and sister spoke in a low voice, and the people on the sofa did not hear them. Seeing Lu Qinchuan coming, Gu Changhong had no choice but to come over.

"Lu Qinchuan!" He stretched out his right hand with a casual expression, "We haven't seen each other for many years. I wouldn't even recognize you if we walked on the street."

When the other person held his hand, Gu Changhong felt as if his fingers were about to be crushed. The other person's voice was very calm: "That's your fault. Even if you, Gu Changhong, turned into ash, I would still recognize you."

Gu Changhong felt pain from being pinched and instinctively pulled his hand back.

But a smile gradually appeared on Lu Qinchuan's face, the kind of smile that comes from meeting an old friend in a foreign land.

So the hand he was holding could not be pulled back, and a dull pain came over him, and Gu Changhong's breathing almost stopped.

It was too hard to endure. After all, he was just a weak scholar: "It hurts, it hurts, Qin Chuan, you are too strong..."

"Oh, I pinched you.

Lu Qinchuan let go of his hand, revealing a mouthful of white teeth, but in Gu Changhong's eyes, this smile was extremely creepy.

Gu Changhong, who was intimidated as soon as they met, had long given up the idea of ​​confessing his feelings to Zhou Ruoyu. Lu Qinchuan, who had not been seen for many years, had lost his youthfulness and ignorance and had long been trained by experience to become a bloodthirsty wolf. He was a character he dared not and could not afford to provoke.

"Qin Chuan, I'm taking a train this afternoon. The waiter just asked me to come downstairs and told me to ask Xiaoyu to see me off. She was in the middle of talking about something, and I didn't get to interrupt her."

This was the truth. He really hadn't been able to say a word until now because Zhou Ruoyu didn't want to give him the chance to talk to her alone.

The waiter carrying the teapot nodded vigorously: "I went upstairs to find Comrade Gu, and I have been serving tea here all the time."

Lai Yunlong's face turned pale, and he felt a bitter taste in his mouth. He could only smile awkwardly to smooth things over: "Look, there's been a misunderstanding. It's rare that everyone is here today. I'll arrange for us to go to the state-owned restaurant for lunch."

Su Hongmei tried hard to calm herself down. This Lu Xiaohua was such a jerk.

They have always said that everything is ready except for the east wind, but when the east wind comes, they are not prepared. It is really infuriating.

She glanced at Lin Siyu, whose face was also livid, and smiled faintly: "Since Lao Lu and Comrade Gu have an appointment first, it would be inappropriate for us to disturb them again. We will make an appointment later. I'll leave now."

Having said that, she ignored Lu Xiaohua, gave Lin Siyu a wink, and walked towards the door.

"Wait a minute," Zhou Ruoyu calmly walked out from behind the sofa, "Excuse my ignorance, but is this a camera?"

She pointed at the camera hanging on Lin Siyu's head and looked him up and down for a long time. "Doctor Lin, Secretary Lin, Comrade Lin has many identities. I wonder if there are any unknown ones?"

Lin Siyu seemed to realize that there was something wrong with his current meeting with Lu Xiaohua and Su Hongmei. His expression was wooden and his smile was unnatural. "I don't mean anything else. I use this camera to take promotional photos."

Su Hongmei explained, "Lin Siyu has always loved photography, and photography is a basic quality that propaganda workers must possess. His photographs appear in every issue of our military district newspaper. Comrade Zhou should not misunderstand his behavior."

"Oh oh," Zhou Ruoyu's eyes were still fixed on the camera, and the expression in her eyes changed from curiosity to even more curiosity!

Lin Siyu understood this look, and he asked tentatively, "How about I take a photo of Comrade Zhou as a souvenir?"

Zhou Ruoyu immediately said, "Okay, thank you, Doctor Lin."

What a heartless thing!

Lu Xiaohua was complaining in her heart, and her eyes couldn't help but look towards Gu Changhong. As luck would have it, Gu Changhong was also looking at her with an angry face.

With a shudder in her heart, she avoided the murderous gaze. It was obvious that Gu Changhong had seen the entire process of her taking Su Hongmei and Lin Siyu upstairs to catch the adulterer. It would be difficult for her to protect herself safely.

Just as she looked away, she saw Su Hongmei's frowning face again. Needless to say, Sister Hongmei must be blaming her.

She bit her lower lip with her teeth, and she felt that she didn't even need to look up, because Brother Yunlong was definitely blaming her.

But is it her fault?

You can't blame her!

Since when did Zhou Ruoyu become so slippery? It's so hard to hold her, so scary.

Fortunately, Zhou Ruoyu's attention was attracted by Dr. Lin's camera. She took several photos of people while sitting and standing.

"Do you want to take another photo with Captain Lu? Wedding photos are very popular nowadays."

Lin Siyu didn't feel sorry for his camera at all, and even suggested taking a few more pictures.

Zhou Ruoyu smiled and waved her hand: "No need, Lao Lu is still working and discussing things. As a military dependent, I dare not take up his work time."

The matter seemed to have been resolved peacefully. The person who suffered the most in this matter was Zhou Ruoyu, but she was the calmest one. She did not make a fuss, did not shout, and did not even say a few extra words.

The two front desk attendants looked at each other in bewilderment. That was right. A woman who didn't even want to take up Captain Lu's work time to take a photo must have been incredibly tactful. It was even more unlikely that she would use this opportunity to cause a scene and let everyone know about it.

Gu Changhong looked at Lu Qinchuan and Lai Yunlong sincerely again: "I have a train this afternoon, and I'm in a hurry. I won't eat. I'll go upstairs to pack my luggage and then leave for the train station."

Lu Qinchuan's expression remained as calm as ever. He extended his hand upon hearing this: "Have a safe journey, and take care!"

Gu Changhong was about to reach out his hand, but it felt like it was pricked and he pulled it back: "My hands, my hands are dirty. Haha."
