The words that Gu Guoan said to Gu Mian at night were not just casual words. The next day, he turned off the dinner party and made time for his daughter's boyfriend.
In order not to be disturbed by outsiders, Gu Guoan specially asked them to eat at his house.
Gu Guoan attached great importance to this meeting. The maid's task was also very heavy and she went out to purchase ingredients early in the morning.
After the ingredients were prepared, the chef was busy in the kitchen all afternoon. The maid didn't take time off and cleaned up the house again, even the floor was shining.
The flowers in the vase were fresh, but for the guests of the evening, the maid took the trouble to replace them with bright flowers.
When the maid and the chef were busy, Gu Mian held the little fox in her arms, laid on the sofa and watched TV.
Looking at their busy figures, she thought that if one day she broke up with Lou Che, she would be a little bit sorry for the maid and chef at home. They tried hard to complete the task assigned by the master and wanted to make a good impression on Lou Che. But it was a pity that she and Lou Che would separate sooner or later.
She still couldn't get rid of the manipulation of the plot. Presumably the final breakup with Lou Che was inevitable.
Gu Mian had a faint intuition in her heart, that was, after she and Lou Che finished the last TV series and walked through all the plots in the book, maybe she would be able to get rid of the manipulation of the plot.
If this was the case, then when Lou Che was about to return to the Cheng family, it would be time for her to break up with Lou Che.
In the book, the original owner and the male lead broke up before Lou Che's true identity was discovered. The original owner regretted it.
Once, she looked down on the male lead's family background, but when the male lead returned to the Cheng family, the original owner could feel the gap between them.
That time the break up was a real breakup.
Since then, they were strangers.
Thinking that she and Lou Che might never have anything to do with each other again, Gu Mian didn't feel relaxed in her heart as she expected but was rather a little confused.
After being his girlfriend for so long, she got used to his company.
She was a little bit reluctant to break up with him.
But no matter how reluctant, the breakup still had to be mentioned.
Anyway, she wanted to finish all the plot first.
As for the future, she would think about it later, it was useless now.
Gu Mian figured this out and felt fine again.
She sometimes felt that she had a good mentality and she lived easily every day. It was great to live easily.
At five o'clock in the evening, Lou Che arrived on time.
Gu Guoan left work an hour earlier for this dinner. So when Lou Che arrived, he was already at home.
Lou Che walked in with gifts, large and small. When he saw Gu Guoan, he politely bent over and called to his uncle.
Gu Guoan looked at Lou Che critically from head to toe and gave a humble hum.
After the maid took the gifts from Lou Che, Gu Guoan gestured toward Lou Che, "Sit down for a while. We will eat dinner later."
"Okay, uncle."
After seeing Lou Che, the maid whispered in Gu Mian's ear, "Oh, this young man often shows up at the door of the house."
"Often?" Gu Mian thought for a while and said, "No, he just came to pick me up a few times, so he showed up."
The maid shook her head and said, "Miss, I also know the few times you went out with him. Sometimes at 11 or 12, or at one or two in the night, I take a look outside and see his car." Such a luxury car was always easy to remember, so even the maid knew it was Lou Che's car.
The maid once got up to go to the washroom at one o'clock in the morning and took a look outside at random and saw Lou Che's car. Later, when she finished using the washroom, the car was gone. She thought it was her own illusion at first. But since she saw it more often, the maid didn't think it was a mistake.
Gu Mian: "…"
Why didn't he tell her when he came? She really didn't even know that he came to her house.
"Does he stay long?"
The maid said, "No. Whenever I turned around, his car was gone."
What was that? She did not quite understand.
The maid whispered, "Miss, every time I saw him, he didn't come in and you didn't go out. I thought you were having a conflict, so I didn't tell you. I was afraid that you would be unhappy."
But since he came to the door, she thought they were a normal young couple who were having emotional conflicts. Otherwise Lou Che would not visit his father-in-law.
Gu Mian nodded.
A dinner could be regarded as a delight for the host and the guest.
Gu Guoan had always wanted to be an enlightened father. He would not do things like other fathers to fix mandarin ducks and did not go looking for a son-in-law everywhere.
He thought that his daughter liked him, so his opinion was not important.
