Su Ziyu sat in the passenger seat and did not take the initiative to talk to Gao Shuo.

Instead, Gao Shuo was the first to lose his temper. He secretly glanced at Su Ziyu's expression and then said uncomfortably,

"Is the schoolgirl angry?"

Su Ziyu glanced at Gao Shuo inexplicably, and said calmly, "No!"

"Why should I be angry?"

Gao Shuo coughed awkwardly and said, "Didn't I agree to treat you to a meal, but in the end..." He asked Qian Feng out in her name.

Gao Shuo didn't say the rest of the sentence, and instead said, "I saw that you didn't say much while eating just now, and I thought you were angry."

Su Ziyu looked at Gao Shuo with a half-smile, "So Senior also knew about this, so there's nothing wrong with me being angry, right?"

At this moment, Gao Shuo was even more speechless, and his face looked a little embarrassed.

In fact, Su Ziyu was not really angry. She didn't say much at the dinner table just because she didn't want to.

And when Lawyer Wu suggested inviting Qian Feng, she had already guessed it in her heart.

Since she agreed to have dinner with Qian Feng, it means she doesn't care about this matter.

At this kind of dinner party, Su Ziyu would speak as little as possible.

She was just an ordinary boss who didn't care about anything else. She left all the socializing and stuff to Qian Feng.

After the car drove all the way to the gate of B University, Gao Shuo solemnly spoke again, "What we did today was wrong. I am here to apologize to my junior sister."

Seeing Gao Shuo's sincere expression, Su Ziyu sighed softly, "Senior, don't take it so seriously. I was just joking with you."

"I'm not mad, really!"

Gao Shuo turned his head to look at Su Ziyu's expression. Seeing that she really didn't seem reluctant, he believed her words.

He turned back to stare at the traffic ahead, a look of relief on his face. "That's good, that's good."

"If I make my schoolmate angry, Xu Chi will definitely not let me off easily."

The reason why Gao Shuo was so enthusiastic in talking to Qian Feng during the meal just now was not just because of work.

He wanted to get to know Qian Feng better and see if Qian Feng could become Xu Chi's love rival.

Gao Shuo felt that he was really worried about Xu Chi's lifelong affairs.

Su Ziyu was stunned. He didn't expect Gao Shuo to suddenly mention Xu Chi.

But she quickly restrained her expression and didn't respond to Gao Shuo's question. Instead, she asked, "Does Lawyer Wu have any new plans at work?"

"Did you figure it out?" Gao Shuo asked in surprise.

Seeing Su Ziyu nod, Gao Shuo let out a long sigh, "Sister Wu's current position in our law firm is the result of years of hard work."

"Of course, if you spend more time on work, you can't help but neglect your personal life and family."

"Lele's situation really scared Sister Wu this time, and the problems between her and her brother-in-law have been going on for a long time. If Sister Wu doesn't do something, their family will probably fall apart."

"Sister Wu plans to shift her focus towards her family, so her career path needs to change as well."

Su Ziyu nodded in understanding. If it weren't for Qian Feng being the one who saved Lele, perhaps Lawyer Wu wouldn't have specially arranged another dinner today, but would have gone back to the hospital to accompany the child.

Su Ziyu shrugged and said nonchalantly, "Anyway, I just came out to have a free lunch. As for the rest, it's none of my business."

As he spoke, Su Ziyu unbuckled his seat belt, thanked Gao Shuo, and got out of the car to say goodbye to him.

Although Su Ziyu did not feel angry, he could not remain completely free of resentment towards Gao Shuo's actions.

It would be fine if it was just for work reasons, but Gao Shuo's behavior of prying into Su Ziyu's personal emotional issues made her feel uncomfortable from the bottom of her heart.

After all, she and Xu Chi are not boyfriend and girlfriend.

However, Su Ziyu and Gao Shuo were not very familiar with each other. Apart from knowing Xu Chi, they could only be considered alumni.

If you get along well, just be friends. If you don’t, just treat us as ordinary alumni. It’s not a big deal.

Gao Shuo didn't know what Su Ziyu was thinking. He watched Su Ziyu's figure gradually disappear at the school gate, picked up his phone and looked at the chat page with Xu Chi.

Then he threw his phone onto the passenger seat and muttered, "It's true that the emperor is not anxious, but the eunuch is."

After saying that, he seemed to realize that he had cursed himself, and he uttered "Pooh" several times out the window.

"Pah, pah, pah, I'm not a eunuch."

……

After Xu Chi learned the general progress of the trafficking case from Gao Shuo, he called Su Ziyu to confirm Su Ziyu's safety.

Because he had been ill and had missed work, he had been working overtime in the company these past two days to catch up on progress.

So when Gao Shuo sent a message saying that he was having dinner with Su Ziyu, although Xu Chi was very moved, in the end he could only regretfully say that he really couldn't spare the time to join in the fun.

However, once he finishes his work today, he will have some free time.

In addition to making up for the missed live broadcast time every day, you should also put exercise on your schedule.

Thinking of this, Xu Chi couldn't help but speed up his eating. After finishing his meal, he hurried back to his temporary workstation and continued to work.

Xu Chi was busy until seven o'clock in the evening before he finished this order, settled the payment and returned to Wanyuan Community.

After taking a shower, Xu Chi came out of the bathroom while drying his hair, and picked up his phone to order some takeout for dinner.

When I got the phone in my hand, I remembered that Gao Shuo mentioned last time that Su Ziyu seemed to live in this community.

Xu Chi paused, put down his phone, turned back to the bedroom and changed into clothes for going out.

When the door closed, Xu Chi's mumbling voice still echoed in the room.

"Let's go to the restaurant to eat. It's lonely eating at home alone."

As for the live broadcast, it has been delayed for several days anyway, so today won’t make any difference.

Xu Chi went downstairs and walked around the community slowly. Not seeing the person he wanted to see, he walked out of the community dejectedly.

"This young man isn't afraid of the cold. He's still wandering around the neighborhood in this freezing weather."

Su Changhe, who had just finished wandering around and was about to go home, looked at his wife with a speechless tone.

"Didn't we just wander around outside for half an hour?"

Yang Yun said unconvincedly, "I'm not afraid of the cold. What's wrong with me taking a walk after dinner?"

"You're not afraid of the cold, so how can a grown man like me be afraid of the cold?"

As he spoke, Su Changhe glanced in the direction where Xu Chi left, looked at Xu Chi carefully for a few times, and then said nothing.

Why does this young man look so frail?
