“Mmm! This is delicious!”
The dazed and adorable Su Wan’er clearly hadn’t realized just how intimate her previous action was.
Even some of the lone singles around them couldn’t help but cast death glares at the pair.
Gu Bai snapped out of his daze from the earlier scene and said.
“I’m glad you like it.”
With that, Gu Bai grabbed a handful of grilled skewers and stuffed them into Su Wan’er’s hands.
After taking the large handful of skewers, she finally noticed something was off.
Her little face flushed bright red in an instant, and she stammered.
“I… I-I’m not that kind of casual person!”
Su Wan’er explained frantically.
“It’s because… because Lai Weiyi usually feeds me like that, so I just instinctively… I just… mmm!”
In her rush to explain, Su Wan’er bit her own tongue halfway through.
Her whimpering appearance was somewhat cute and couldn’t help but stir feelings of pity.
If Su Wan’er were his little sister, she’d definitely be much better than a certain female animal at home.
Of course, that was just a joke. Gu Bai didn’t actually find Gu Mixue annoying.
He just didn’t think she acted much like a sister.
“Take it slow, open your mouth and let me see?”
Gu Bai wanted to check if she’d bitten her tongue hard enough to bleed, so he asked Su Wan’er to open her cherry-like little mouth for him to see inside.
But Su Wan’er’s face was flushed crimson, and she shook her head like a rattle-drum, saying.
“It’s fine, it’s fine! It just hurts a bit, it’s fine!”
She really didn’t dare open her mouth for Gu Bai to see.
After all, that kind of behavior was far too intimate, just like young lovers on the street.
With Su Wan’er’s timid personality, she absolutely couldn’t bring herself to do such a thing.
What happened earlier was just an unintentional slip.
If she could go back in time now, Su Wan’er would definitely strle the shameless version of herself from that moment.
“That’s good then.”
Gu Bai couldn’t be bothered to care so much.
He shrugged and said.
“Let’s go, the buffet restaurant is just ahead.”
“Mhm.”
The two walked side by side into the interior of the buffet restaurant.
Unlike other restaurants, the buffet restaurant on Moore Street wasn’t expensive, had plenty of dishes, and because the taste was pretty good, many dishes were completely devoured by the ravenous college students before they even had a chance to cool down.
Faced with so many people, Gu Bai looked at the nearly depleted food at the serving area and felt a bit disheartened for a moment.
Su Wan’er also saw the pitiful state of things and said somewhat awkwardly.
“Should we wait a bit?”
It wasn’t just the two of them; there were quite a few others waiting for new dishes to arrive.
“It shouldn’t be too long.”
Gu Bai had worked part-time here before, and not just as a bouncer or dishwasher.
He could handle kitchen work too, so he had a rough idea of the serving schedule here.
“I’m really sorry…”
Su Wan’er said timidly.
“If we’d gone somewhere else, maybe we wouldn’t have to wait.”
“It’s fine, I’m used to waiting.”
Gu Bai had great patience.
He skillfully filled two cups with orange juice and handed one to Su Wan’er, saying.
“Luckily we have so many grilled skewers here. Have some to tide you over.”
Even though it felt like a waste to eat other things before a buffet, Su Wan’er obediently ate a few skewers.
However, while waiting, Gu Bai noticed a small group of people gathered not far from them, chatting animatedly.
“Brother Wang, are you really planning to go after Su Shuhao?”
Judging by their appearance, they seemed to be freshmen.
The one called “Brother Wang” wore gold and silver jewelry, looking like a nouveau riche.
The guy flicked the ash from his cigarette, thinking he looked cool, and said.
“Otherwise? When have I ever joked around? That Su Shuhao does look good, but with my family’s conditions, getting her won’t be a problem at all.”
“But I heard that Su Shuhao is some campus bully’s girl…”
One of Brother Wang’s lackeys clearly knew how to flatter, but another lackey worriedly chimed in.
“Yeah, yeah, I heard that campus bully named Gu Bai is pretty tough. They say he chased his enemy with a knife from the north gate all the way to the south gate of the campus. Even the school and police couldn’t do anything about him.”
“Bullshit! Keep blowing it out of proportion!”
Brother Wang curled his lip disdainfully.
“I think it’s fake. My family has people in the underworld. I’ve never heard of this guy.”
As he spoke, he blew out another puff of white smoke.
His sloppy attitude made the other college students around them quite unhappy.
Besides, this was a buffet restaurant where smoking was prohibited.
Watching this scene, Gu Bai felt like he’d vaguely heard of this “Brother Wang” character somewhere before.
This guy’s family only had a little money from dirty online loansharking and the like.
They weren’t involved in the underworld at all.
Seeing someone smoking in the restaurant, a waiter soon came over to劝阻.
“Hello, sir. This is a no-smoking area. Could you please not smoke?”
This waiter was Wang Fu, one of Gu Bai’s former roommates and a good brother who often did part-time work with him.
Though his stamina was a bit lacking, so the work he could handle compared to Gu Bai wasn’t much.
“Do you have a no-smoking sign here?”
Facing Wang Fu’s polite劝说, Brother Wang clearly didn’t take it seriously.
He took a deep drag of his cigarette and blew the smoke directly into Wang Fu’s face, taunting.
“You don’t even have a sign up, and you call it a no-smoking area?”
While it was true there wasn’t a sign inside the restaurant, there were clearly the words “No Smoking” written in large characters at the entrance.
“Cough, cough, cough!”
Wang Fu choked from the smoke blown in his face.
Seeing this, Gu Bai couldn’t help but frown and interject.
“There’s a sign right at the entrance. Don’t blame others for your own blindness.”
But the guy didn’t pay any attention to the unremarkable-looking Gu Bai.
He just laughed and cursed.
“What good is a sign at the entrance? You don’t even have any food in this place. What kind of restaurant is this?”
With that, Brother Wang stepped over the threshold and walked out of the buffet restaurant. As he left, he said arrogantly.
“I’m not eating this meal. Consider the meal ticket money charity for you guys.”
Only after this group had gone far away did the frown on Gu Bai’s face ease somewhat.
He stepped forward and said to Wang Fu.
“Don’t take that kind of outrageous talk to heart. Just focus on doing your own thing properly.”
The worried Su Wan’er also came over, staying close to Gu Bai.
She wanted to say something, but the words stuck in her throat.
Especially with other people around.
“Wang Fu, you go handle things in the back kitchen first.”
“Thanks, Bai.”
Wang Fu nodded to Gu Bai, then went to busy himself in the back kitchen.
Only when they were alone did Su Wan’er gather the courage to ask Gu Bai.
“Senior Gu Bai, it seems like he’s going to cause trouble for… Su Shuhao, right? Are you… going to help her?”
