When this topic was discussed, the atmosphere in the car seemed to be not so awkward as before.
Su Rui also felt that what Gu Yu Cheng had said was right.
If it wasn’t for the wrong atmosphere, she has to maintain her image. Cough, the basic image as a blind date, Su Rui wanted to say to Gu Yu Cheng: Thank you, big shot, for your guidance.
“Su Rui.”
“Hm?”
“Do you have a question?” She saw that Gu Yu Cheng’s expression seemed to be a little troubled? Su Rui was puzzled.
“Where is your house located?”
Su Rui: WTF?
Gu Yu Cheng doesn’t know where her house is?
Then, why did this big shot say, “it is convenient” with a straight face?
If it wasn’t because she wasn’t very familiar with Gu Yu Cheng, Su Rui would have asked this question.
As for the present, the image that needs to be kept has to be saved.
“In district A, Jin Hua Centre.” Su Rui put a lot of effort to maintain a natural look on her face as she said.
“En.”
Su Rui wanted to ask whether Gu Yu Cheng could find Jin Hua Centre, if not she could turn on the navigation or something.
Even though Gu Yu Cheng appeared to be confident, Su Rui doubted that this person could find the place because of what happened just now.
As Su Rui was hesitating, she saw that Gu Yu Cheng had already driven his car into Jinhua centre.
“Which compound is it?”
“17.” Su Rui replied subconsciously that she could not withdraw what she said.
“Gu Yu Cheng.”
“Yes?”
“Just stop at the front would be fine. We will reach soon.” Su Rui said.
Hearing that, Gu Yu Cheng looked at the direction where Su Rui had pointed to and roughly guessed what Su Rui’s thoughts were. Without asking, he parked his car a few steps away from her home.
“Thank you.” Su Rui thanked and smiled at Gu Yu Cheng as she got out of the car.
“There is no need.”
“Later, you can leave from the left side.” Su Rui said as she looked at Gu Yu Cheng. She added, “Take care.”
As Gu Yu Cheng heard what Su Rui had said, Gu Yu Cheng stared blankly when he saw the other person had run back home.
Just like that?
Gu Yu Cheng vaguely feels that something was missing…in the steps?
At least, Su Rui’s reaction was different from the women he had met in the past.
However, on what exactly is missing, Gu Yu Cheng can’t identify it currently.
It seems that there is nothing wrong with Su Rui’s response.
Gu Yu Cheng’s lips were slightly pursed. He started the car again and prepared to leave.
But, at this time, the phone rang.
It was a text message, “Thank you. I’m home. ~ Su Rui.”
Gu Yu Cheng’s phone number was given to Su Rui by Mrs Gu today. She didn’t expect that it would be of use so soon.
As Gu Yu Cheng saw the string of numbers and the contents of the message, his expression looked away expressionlessly.
After the car was driven for a short distance, Gu Yu Cheng stopped the car again.
He clicked on the text message that was sent just now and saved that string of numbers.
Gu Yu Cheng hesitated for a moment and replied to the other party’s message: Received.
On the other end, Su Rui, who has already returned home, is currently facing Madam Liu’s interrogation. When she saw the message Gu Yu Cheng had sent, the corner of her lips twitched.
Received?
What’s this peculiar reply?
“I’m talking to you, and you looked at your phone again.” Looking at her daughter staring at her phone and not listening to her teachings at all, Liu Yue said as she patted on Su Rui’s head displeasingly.
“Cough, I am listening. Please continue, Mother*.[1]”
“You don’t even have any conformity.” Liu Yue glanced at Su Rui and asked, “Both of you didn’t talk about other topics on the way home?”
Just discussed the question of professional knowledge for the entire way home?
“Nope.” Su Rui replied truthfully.
Nowadays, it is already good to have a common topic to talk about. It is better than having awkward conversations on weather, places, gossip on celebrities, or holding the phone to conceal the awkwardness, right?
Hearing this, Liu Yue’s expression of her eyes changed slightly and Su Rui didn’t know what she was thinking of.
“Then, Mum asks you a question. Today, it would be considered as getting to know the other party. So, what do you think of him?”
Although Lao Su didn’t quite agree with this idea, Liu Yue felt that Gu Yu Cheng was not bad. If her family’s Rui Rui likes him, they can be together.
“Well,” Su Rui thought and said objectively, “Not bad.”
Besides the fact that…he seems to think like a straight man[2].
However, Su Rui thinks that this isn’t a flaw.
Although there are always a lot of strange stories and incidents that appear on the search page when the two words of straight man were inputted on the Internet, it can be said that straight man can provide a dependable life.
[1] 母上大人(mǔ shàng dà rén) – A respectful way of calling mother. It is okaa-sama in japanese.
[2] 直男 (zhí nán) – Straight man. In this case, it is describing that Gu Yu Cheng has traits that most heterosexual man do such as they like women that wears black stockings, unable to differentiate between women who has make up or no make up on, liking women who has big breasts, long legs and long straight hair, etc.
