109 Sister Man Is Dating Young Master Bai?
“Mrs. Bai, you’re too humble. Not to mention others, my sister, Gu Man, admires Young Master Bai.”
Gu Rou’s words made Mrs. Zhang and Mrs. Bai stop laughing.
“Your sister, Gu Man, likes my son?” Mrs. Bai asked curiously.
However, she was not surprised. She knew that there were indeed many girls who liked Bai Yun, so it was normal for Gu Man to like him.
“To be precise, they’re dating,” Gu Rou added calmly.
“Dating?” Xiang Li’s voice subconsciously raised.
At this moment, Zhong Yao came out of the bathroom. Xiang Li immediately stopped asking.
Seeing Xiang Li’s expression, Mrs. Zhang knew that she must have many questions to ask, so she said to Gu Rou, “Send your cousin back to the private room and meet us again. We’ll have a cup of coffee before we leave.”
“Okay, then I’ll send my cousin back first.”
After returning to the Gu family’s private room, Gu Rou said, “I met Mrs. Zhang and Mrs. Bai just now and chatted for a while. They asked me to go for a cup of coffee before leaving. Then I…”
“Go, go. We’ll disperse ourselves later.”
Qu Bei heard that Mrs. Zhang was looking for Gu Rou for coffee. It seemed that Mrs. Zhang liked Gu Rou very much, so she quickly waved her hand to ask her to leave.
“Then I’ll go over first. You don’t have to wait for me later,” Gu Rou said to Zhang Yue, pretending to be apologetic.
“Go ahead.” Zhang Yue nodded with a smile.
“Look, our Rou’er is so sensible. We’re family, yet you still have to be so polite and considerate. I’m not bragging. It’s really hard to find a second person like you in this circle,” Qu Bei praised.
“Mom, don’t say that. I’m embarra.s.sed.” Gu Rou squirmed.
“Auntie is telling the truth. What’s there to be embarra.s.sed about? Go ahead,” Zhang Yue said with a smile.
Gu Rou was smug, but she pretended to cover her face in embarra.s.sment before walking out of the private room.
At the end of the corridor was an open-air café.
Just as Gu Rou sat down, Xiang Li asked, “You said that your sister, Gu Man, is dating my Bai Yun? I’ve never seen him say that.”
“Mrs. Bai, to put it bluntly, I don’t think Young Master Bai is really dating my sister.” Gu Rou wanted to say something but hesitated, as if it was hard to explain.
“What do you mean?” Xiang Li picked up the coffee steadily and took a sip. She did not argue for Bai Yun because of Gu Rou’s words.
“I know my sister. She just came out of the countryside and is still unable to adapt to life in the city. Now, she can’t help but feel tempted…”
“Don’t worry, our Bai family has never had any concept of family status. As long as their character is good, it’s fine as long as they like each other,” Xiang Li said solemnly before Gu Rou could finish speaking.
When Xiang Li heard Gu Rou say that Gu Man came from the countryside, she thought that Gu Rou was certain that Bai Yun was not sincere because of this. That would be too arbitrary.
“Mrs. Bai, let me finish. If my sister was still as pure as when she first came back from the countryside, I wouldn’t have said those words.” At this moment, Gu Rou looked sad.
“Then…” Xiang Li put down her coffee cup and waited for her to continue.
“Recently, for some reason, Gu Man’s personality has suddenly changed. She seems to have become distant from our family. She doesn’t tell our family anything and doesn’t report where she goes. I heard from the servants at home that Gu Man often comes home in the middle of the night. There’s even a luxury car at the door to send her back. She won’t say anything even if we ask her, and she doesn’t listen to anyone’s persuasion. My grandmother was almost angered to the point of having a heart attack. Just now, she didn’t attend the family gathering specially set up for my aunt. Now, she says she’s at home, but no one knows where she went.”
Hearing Gu Rou’s words, Xiang Li’s expression became more and more serious. She almost snorted and said, “Although the Bai family doesn’t value family background, if your character is bad, don’t even think about getting past me.”
Gu Rou was secretly delighted when she heard this, but she put on a righteous expression. “So, when I said that Young Master Bai and my sister aren’t really dating, it’s because I know that with my sister’s current personality, she definitely won’t be liked by Young Master Bai. They’re just playing around now.”
“Nonsense.” Xiang Li snorted angrily.
