Kapitel 170: Checking Out the "Old Man"

Gu Zi said to Gong Xin, "I'm going to drop off something for the kids' dad. You stay home; you can watch TV or read. I'll take you to the station later."

Gong Xin hastily finished most of the mushroom soup in her bowl and stood up. "I'm not as diligent as you; I don't love to read books. I'll come with you, see your 'old man,'" she remarked.

She felt compelled to see who this man was, prompting Gu Zi, the studious overachiever, to stay home, cook soup, and look after the children.

At the same time, she felt that the two boys of the Su family were too terrifying. She could not imagine how suffocating it would be to stay alone with them.

Without objection, Gu Zi took her along to the pig farm.

Arriving at the farm's lobby, they found Jin Long on the truck, cleaning it with a hose.

When Jin Long spotted the cheerful Gu Zi, his eyes brightened. But as his gaze shifted to the woman beside her, he felt a sudden awkwardness.
