Gu Shaojun had the restaurant manager pack up a few extra pastries for her to take to Lu Jianling and Weiwei. As she requested, he first dropped her off at her company before bidding farewell, rushing off to pick up Xiao Man from work for lunch at home.
After listening to Yang Liu'er's account, Gu Shaojun's expression remained as composed as ever, his gaze calm and detached, as if he had just listened to a story. Yang Liu'er had the mistaken impression that he had only been momentarily curious and wasn't actually very concerned about the matter.
