Wen Tang's incessant chatter was silenced.

This kiss was different from the previous ones; this time, Gu Yanli was unusually gentle.

His deep, silent eyes held an unyielding sense of guilt.

The person he cherished so much was treated like that...

They humiliated his family and then turned around and reported him. Did they really think he was an easy target?

He's so easy to bully!

The next day, Wen Tang wanted to drag Gu Yanli to the group to explain things clearly.

We can't suffer in silence.

Gu Yanli wasn't in a hurry. Instead, he took his hand and said, "It's okay, I'll talk to them about it."

"It's a rare day off, let me go out for a walk with you."

Knowing she was worried, Gu Yanli tried to calm her down, saying, "Don't worry, if they really wanted to punish me, it wouldn't be just a matter of resting for two days."

"Won't that affect your promotion?"

“Deliberate slander has no impact.”

"That's OK!"

"If that idiot gets his way, I'll never enjoy my food again."

"Let's go shopping."

It's quite a coincidence!

Gu Yanli and Wen Tang unexpectedly ran into Tu Manman again in the city.

However, the man accompanying Tu Manman this time was someone she knew.

It was none other than Luo Qiao's second brother, Luo Hanqing.

Wen Tang and Gu Yanli met them at the entrance of the coffee shop.

Wen Tang wanted to go to a coffee shop to eat small cakes; she hadn't had them for months and was craving them.

Gu Yanli accompanied her.

I didn't expect to run into these two people at the door.

Wen Tang exclaimed, "I didn't check the almanac before I went out!"

Wen Tang's voice wasn't quiet, and Tu Manman heard it immediately.

Luo Hanqing was right next to her, and Tu Manman didn't want to argue with someone like Wen Tang, so she could only quickly glare at her.

Wen Tang replied without changing her tone, "What's the point of glaring at me?"

"Go ahead and bite me if you dare!"

Even Luo Hanqing couldn't help but glance at Wen Tang now.

Gu Yanli even said, "Aren't you afraid if a dog bites you?"

"Pfft," Wen Tang couldn't help but laugh out loud.

Luo Hanqing felt that Wen Tang was somewhat familiar, and Gu Yanli was also somewhat familiar.

Before he could say anything, Wen Tang grabbed Gu Yanli's sleeve and went into the coffee shop first. She was afraid that Tu Manman would really bite someone.

Who told Gu Yanli to be even more scathing in his tongue than she was?

“They…” Luo Hanqing felt like he knew them.

But Tu Manman was afraid that Luo Hanqing would find out about her entanglements with Wen Tang, so she hurriedly explained, "I don't know them."

Luo Hanqing didn't think much of it and just said, "Oh, it just looks familiar to me."

Tu Manman was surprised.

Luo Hanqing's father is the deputy director of a cotton mill and a genuine Shanghai native. How could he know Wen Tang and Gu Yanli?

But Luo Hanqing had already remembered that he had met Gu Yanli in the Xiangxing Brigade.

The time they sent Luo Qiao to the countryside.

Gu Yanli's appearance and temperament are unforgettable once you've seen him, so he quickly remembered him.

That person, Luo Tian said, saved her.

Then, thinking about how Luo Qiao and Luo Tian were reported for speculation, Luo Qiao said it was this man's wife who reported them...

Luo Hanqing wanted to go in and find out the truth.

What did his two younger sisters do to offend her so much that she would be so malicious and do things that harm others without benefiting herself?

As soon as Luo Hanqing lifted his foot, Tu Manman, fearing that Luo Hanqing would find out something, said, "I... let's not drink coffee!"

Luo Hanqing frowned. "What's wrong?"

He still wanted to question Wen Tang!

Tu Manman's eyes darted around, and she raised her hand to cover her stomach. "I...I have a stomachache."

"Then I'll take you to the hospital to get checked out."

Tu Manman nodded.

Then the two left from the coffee shop entrance.

After ordering, Wen Tang was overjoyed to see the two leave. "It's so nice, the air feels so fresh now."

Then she looked out the window, wondering, "How did those two end up together?"

"Birds of a feather flock together, it's not surprising."

Wen Tang gave a thumbs up. "You're right."

"Let these two stay together, whatever you do, don't separate them."

"To prevent it from entering the market and harming two good people."

Soon, the cake was served, and Wen Tang's appetite was immediately whetted.

I rubbed my hands together. "Let's not talk about unlucky things anymore. Let's eat some sweet little cake to soothe my wounded little heart."

"Mmm, so sweet," Wen Tang exclaimed dramatically after taking a bite of the cake.

Gu Yanli smiled and said, "If you like it, order two more pieces."

"Okay, I'll order more when I leave, to take home and eat."

“喏,张嘴!”

"Ok?"

The spoon was brought directly to his lips, and Gu Yanli instinctively opened his mouth.

"Is it sweet?"

Whether it was sweet or not, Gu Yanli felt completely melted watching Wen Tang continue eating with the spoon he had used.

Tu Manman was helped by Luo Hanqing to walk to the hospital. When they arrived at the hospital, Tu Manman hesitated and said, "I...I feel much better."

Luo Hanqing glanced at her and said, "Let's have the doctor take a look!"

Tu Manman shook her head, her face full of shyness. "It's...it's really good."

“…How about I treat you to a movie?” Tu Manman said.

She lowered her head after she finished speaking, looking nervous and awkward.

Fortunately, Luo Hanqing said, "I'll ask Comrade Tu!"

"There's no reason for a woman to treat us to a meal."

Tu Manman felt her heart beating faster.

Luo Hanqing is the best guy she's been able to meet so far, and she's determined to seize the opportunity.

She was suspended for six months. The performing arts troupe is a place where new people come and go very quickly. Even if she went back after six months, she could forget about being a pillar of the troupe again.

Once she is marginalized, her opportunities will become fewer and fewer.

She can no longer be as picky as before.

Moreover, Luo Hanqing is the best candidate she has ever met.

Although she preferred to find a son of a high-ranking official, she had never met one.

She performed for the military many times, but no one ever pursued her.

Now that she has been suspended from her post, she has lost the opportunity to appear in public.

After that delay, she knew she probably wouldn't have another chance.

Therefore, she absolutely had to hold onto Luo Hanqing.

Watching movies is a great way to cultivate relationships.

Luo Hanqing agreed to go to the movies with her, and Tu Manman felt that there was something going on between them.

After finishing their cake, Wen Tang and Gu Yanli packed two more cakes to go. They strolled around the city with the cakes until it got late before taking a bus back to their residential compound.

After watching the movie, Luo Hanqing and Tu Manman came out late, and Luo Hanqing said he would treat Tu Manman to dinner.

Tu Manman politely declined, "No, it's getting late... maybe next time!"

Luo Hanqing nodded and said, "Then I'll take you back."

After taking Tu Manman back to her residence, Luo Hanqing returned home to find dinner already on the table.

After washing his hands, Luo Hanqing sat down at the table, picked up his soup bowl, and then, remembering something, looked up and asked, "Guess who I saw in the city center today?"

"Who?" his elder brother Luo Hanchen asked.

Hu Changxiu no longer has the mind to ask this question.

Both of her daughters were sent to labor camps, which was a huge blow to her.

"It's... that battalion commander who saved her when Sweetie was in the countryside."

“I…I went to a coffee shop and saw him with what I think was his wife, so I went too.”
