Upon hearing Qi Shuo's words, everyone began to feel relieved. As long as there was still a chance for these two to connect, their matchmaking efforts would not be in vain.
Xu Yuan even started to fantasize, "When those two finally get together, our contributions will be significant. Gu Chen will surely owe us some favors."
Though the others didn't voice it aloud, they secretly harbored similar thoughts.
Gu Chen's typically icy demeanor prompted his brothers to yearn for opportunities to tease him. They reasoned that even if he became annoyed, at least it meant he was acting more like a living person.
If they could match him with Song Fan, they would no longer need to worry. Benefits would undoubtedly follow.
While those outside indulged in these daydreams, Song Fan and Gu Chen remained oblivious to their schemes. The notion had never crossed their minds.
