Chapter: 3087
While the couple was chatting, a figure walked up and sat down next to Xiao Churan. She turned around and exclaimed, “Oh! Miss Su!”
Charlie Wade looked up and realized that the person sitting next to Xiao Churan was Su Zhiyu. He wondered why she was there too. Su Zhiyu seemed surprised to see them and smiled, saying, “Oh, Mr. Xiao and Mr. Ye, I didn’t expect to see you here!”
Xiao Churan smiled back and explained, “I’ve always liked Gu Qiuyi, so I asked my husband to come and watch the show with me.”
Curious, she asked, “Miss Su, why didn’t Aunt Du come with you?”
Su Zhiyu playfully replied, “Honestly, my mother doesn’t really enjoy lively events like this. I almost didn’t come either, but my brother had a ticket. He’s a big fan of Gu Qiuyi but couldn’t make it. I didn’t want the ticket to go to waste, so I decided to come.”
Xiao Churan laughed and added, “My husband doesn’t seem to like these events either. He’s never chased a star, and I kind of dragged him here.”
Su Zhiyu looked at Charlie Wade and teased, “So, Mr. Ye, you don’t like Gu Qiuyi?”
Charlie Wade felt overwhelmed by the conversation and thought to himself, “What’s with these women today? Everything they say has more meaning than it seems.”
To change the subject, he asked Su Zhiyu, “Hey, Miss Su, since your brother is a fan of Gu Qiuyi, what happened that he couldn’t come? It seems like he missed out.”
Su Zhiyu shot him a playful look, thinking, “You know exactly what you’re doing! Why…”
“Did my brother come? Is there anyone who knows better than you?” Su Zhiyu asked, looking worried. “He was happy earlier today. I rushed away, and I can only walk a few kilometers in a day. I must still be near Jinling City!”
She sighed and continued, “Don’t mention it. My brother met a bad guy, and that bad guy took care of him. I’m afraid he won’t be back for a few years.”
Xiao Churan gasped in shock. “Miss Su, your brother was kidnapped?! Did you call the police?”
Su Zhiyu chuckled lightly. “It’s not kidnapping. It’s just that my brother can’t return soon. I’m willing to accept the bet, so I can’t blame anyone else for this.”
Xiao Churan felt confused but realized it was a personal matter. She nodded and said, “I’m sorry. I didn’t mean to pry.”
“It’s okay,” Su Zhiyu replied quickly. “This might not be a bad thing for him.”
At that moment, Gu Yanzhong and his wife, Lin Wanqiu, walked hand in hand past Su Zhiyu. When Gu Yanzhong spotted Charlie Wade, they exchanged a subtle nod, unnoticed by others.
Lin Wanqiu waved at Charlie Wade and then sat down next to Su Zhiyu. Gu Yanzhong took a seat beside her.
