Chapter 325: 325 Astonishingly reasonable and legal~ (Extra update)

If it really was a man-eating demon, what was he doing dragging her son away?

A chill flashed through Gu Ren’s eyes as her mind touched upon the dangers her son nearly faced.

Lin Tang shook her head, "Whether it’s true or not, I don’t know."

It’s all rumors, and who knows what the truth is by the end.

She brought it up just in case.

Lin Tang furrowed her brow slightly and continued:

"But I always feel that person isn’t as vicious as he appears."

Mu Sheng may have a gloomy aura, but there isn’t any real malice in his eyes.

Perhaps his interest in Su Zheng stemmed from other reasons?

Su Qi felt there must be some truth behind the rumors.

And whatever that person wanted to do with his son, it was definitely nothing good.

He looked at Gu Yingzhou and said, "Yingzhou, do you have someone who could check into that person? If it’s convenient, please investigate him."

They were going back to Provincial City in at most two days.

Whether that person was good or bad, it wouldn’t have much of an impact on them.

However, now that they knew about it, they couldn’t act as if nothing had happened.

Gu Yingzhou’s first concern was that Tangtang had dealt with such a dangerous person to bring Su Zheng back home, which left him frightened afterwards.

"I will have someone look into it."

After replying to his brother-in-law, he asked Lin Tang, "Tangtang, have you seen that person these past few days?"

He was worried that the person might hold a grudge and target his young niece.

As he asked, the man’s brows were slightly knitted.

A shadow of concern flickered quickly across his eyes.

Upon seeing Lin Tang shake her head, the chill that had gathered around him dispersed suddenly.

"I haven’t seen him. I feel like he’s not quite the same as the rumors suggest. Maybe we shouldn’t alert him yet. How about we have someone keep an eye on him for a while first?" Lin Tang suggested.

That would prevent the man from doing any harm while they were unprepared.

Gu Yingzhou had already made up his mind about it.

Keeping watch over that man was of top priority.

"I’ll handle this matter. From now on, I’ll pick you up and drop you off for work."

Gu Ren sat on the side, her face filled with relief.

Her brother was finally growing up!

"Tangtang, Yingzhou is your partner, so it’s only right that he takes you to and from work. Don’t refuse it," she said.

With that, she began reminiscing about her own past with her husband.

"Back when I started dating Su Qi, he always thought of me whenever there was anything delicious or fun.

Not to mention picking me up and driving me places, he practically wanted to be attached to me..."

Gu Ren showed off her affectionate relationship unwittingly.

Su Qi tenderly gazed at his wife, his eyes filled with her graceful image.

Their eyes met, and a string of pink bubbles emerged.

So clingy and nauseatingly sweet!

Lin Tang: "..."

What did I do to deserve this torment?

Being all loving and legal, great huh～

Ugh!!

Gu Yingzhou was used to his family’s occasional displays of affection, not even batting an eye.

His sister and brother-in-law were at least discreet.

His own parents, although advanced in years, were always hugging and kissing, and he had grown numb to it.

It was just unbearable to watch.

Lin Tang, maintaining composure, stood up, "...It’s getting late. I’ll go cook."

As she finished speaking, Su Zheng, who was still in the corner on time-out, spoke up in a voice that was meant to be quiet but was heard by everyone:

"Sister Tangtang, my butt really hurts, could I have some more sweet dishes?!"

His voice carried the unique tenderness of a child’s, brimming with grievance.

His watery eyes blinked furiously, obviously trying to evoke the cook’s sympathy.

After Su Zheng said this, Gu Yingzhou’s expression paused for a moment.

The look he gave Lin Tang also held a hint of anticipation.

Sweet dishes? He was in for that, too.

Lin Tang laughed and covered her forehead with her hand, her eyes full of amusement.

Should she say he’s a true nephew of his uncle?

She didn’t have a sweet tooth herself and rarely ate anything sweet.

Whenever Lin Tang dined with Gu Yingzhou, the man always indulged her.

When eating out, he constantly ordered the dishes she liked; at home, he never made any requests.

If she hadn’t been attentive, she wouldn’t have noticed Gu Yingzhou’s fondness for sweets.

"Okay, let’s add a Candied Sweet Potato as well," Lin Tang said with a smile.

Who could resist the crispy outside, tender inside, and sweet but not cloying Candied Sweet Potato, especially if they had a sweet tooth?

Su Zheng’s eyes narrowed into slits, and he said excitedly, "Yes, yes, thank you, Sister Tangtang."

He even forgot about the pain in his rear.

Gu Yingzhou’s aura clearly brightened.

Unacquainted people would surely miss it.

But anyone with even a bit of attentiveness could see it at a glance.

Gu Ren whispered into Su Qi’s ear, "Tangtang must know about Yingzhou liking sweets, right?"

Did her foolish son still think Tangtang did it for him?

He must be just an afterthought, right?

Su Qi nodded, "That should be it."

His impression of Lin Tang gained another tick for attentiveness.

Gu Ren’s eyes and eyebrows relaxed, and her smile was soft and tender.

"...How amusing."

Her little brother really fell for it!

Gu Ren knew her younger brother well; when Gu Yingzhou wanted to keep something secret, he could be incredibly tight-lipped.

The fact that he was willing to reveal his preferences in front of this young lady meant it must be true affection, right?

Su Qi felt the same way.

Watching his brother-in-law pursue a relationship was something he could enjoy for a year.

Truly amusing.

After responding to Su Zheng, Lin Tang headed towards the kitchen.

Seeing this, Gu Ren couldn’t sit still any longer and hurriedly stood up to follow.

"Tangtang, I’ll come with you."

Su Qi stiffened, his expression twisting in a flash.

...Please, let’s not?

He mentally cried out in rejection.

But he was always unable to refuse his wife.

He could only hope that Gu Yingzhou and Lin Tang would tactfully decline her offer.

Because, you see, Gu Ren’s cooking skills were quite ordinary.

Poor presentation, and the taste was barely passable.

It was one thing to cook at home for the family, who didn’t mind,

but in front of Yingzhou’s love interest, better not.

The first meeting wasn’t the time for this.

Gu Yingzhou knew his sister’s culinary skills.

She had practiced with diligence for quite some time.

But perhaps lacking innate talent, her skills really weren’t that great.

Actually, being a poor cook was one thing...

What was truly terrible was that she lacked self-awareness.

Aside from her love for books, she was incredibly persistent about cooking.

Once she entered the kitchen, she became like Erha gone mad, unstoppable even when leashed.

Thinking this, Gu Yingzhou emotionlessly stopped Gu Ren.

"You don’t need to, you’re not familiar with this stove. I’ll go help."

What he really wanted to say was, "Don’t you have any idea about your own cooking skills?"

But in front of a love interest, and on a first meeting, it’s better to save his sister some face, after all, they were family.

Gu Ren: (-᷅_-᷄) So grateful to you!

Fearing Gu Ren would persist, Gu Yingzhou immediately pulled Lin Tang with him to the kitchen.

Gu Ren shuffled her feet.

Before she could step forward, Su Qi quickly held her back.

"Let’s just wait outside, shall we? Give Yingzhou and Comrade Lin some private space. If you’re bored, maybe... sweep the floor?

Or you could ask Comrade Lin if she has a book you could read?"

He truly didn’t want his wife to enter the kitchen.

And he also wanted to give the young couple some private space.

Gu Ren looked at him with questioning eyes and said, "I’m going to the bathroom; why are you saying so much?"

Did she not realize that they were shunning her?
