As he stumbled into the restaurant, a question played over and over in Su Huai's mind—
Was Gu Jiuyue truly naive or was she a great villain masquerading as honest?
Everything seemed fine when he was tricking her, so why did the outcome go in completely the opposite direction?
In reality, Su Huai hadn't lost anything, but he just felt out of sorts.
He suspiciously observed Gu Jiuyue from the side and detected nothing abnormal.
Gu looked up at the sign with expectation twinkling in her eyes and then made a great effort to compose herself, her cheeks calm and indifferent.
Su Huai decided to probe her again, "By the way, have you ever eaten out before?"
"No!"
Gu Jiuyue's voice was clearly a bit excited, "Before I started university, all the food I ate was made at home, I wasn't allowed to touch any of the street food or restaurant dishes by my dad."
Her attention shifted quickly, and there was no sign of guilt in her demeanor, first hurdle cleared.
