Chapter 240: Chapter 240 Knight
With her great skills, Jiang Baocu was naturally very happy.
After her initial surprise, Jiang Baocu was all smiles.
Gu Shiting felt a little unfamiliar with her, and instinctively cautious, he stiffly nodded at her.
Jiang Baocu, flattered, said: "Senior Brother Gu."
"Hello." Gu Shiting gave Sheng Tang due face.
Jiang Baocu, secretly delighted, thought that thanks to Sheng Tang, she managed to get a greeting from the cold-faced young master.
"Have a seat." Sheng Tang lightly pressed Jiang Baocu’s shoulder.
Members of the Sheng Family didn’t treat Gu Shiting formally, and everyone sat down.
They deliberately left two chairs next to Gu Shiting empty, fearing they’d scare him away.
Sheng Tang sat down beside him.
"Have you ordered the food?" she asked Gu Shiting.
Gu Shiting replied: "I’ve ordered a few specialties, but not all, since I wasn’t sure of your tastes."
Sheng Tang handed the menu to her parents.
Sheng Tang’s mother took over and ordered a few more dishes, passing it to Sheng Tang’s grandmother and younger brother.
Finally, the menu reached Jiang Baocu.
Jiang Baocu quickly waved her hand: "I’ll eat anything, I’m just here to mooch a meal."
Everyone laughed.
Gu Shiting then whispered to Sheng Tang.
"... The sea bass here is very fresh. Song Chen recommended we try it, so I ordered two. Make sure you eat more." Gu Shiting said.
Sheng Tang: "..."
This young master is really feeding pigs.
She chuckled quietly: "Okay, I’ll eat more, don’t worry."
Gu Shiting nodded.
The two of them whispered like a loving couple.
Jiang Baocu giggled secretly, thinking that Gu Shiting must be chasing Sheng Tang; his gaze seemed to melt on her.
Compared to Gu Shiting, Gu Jiahui really was nothing.
Although Gu Jiahui was her male idol, Jiang Baocu still had to admit, Gu Shiting had better charisma and appearance.
The dishes gradually arrived, and everyone started engaging in lively conversation.
Sheng Tang’s younger brother asked Jiang Baocu: "Sister Bao Chu, will there be an evaluation of excellent programs at your New Year’s performance?"
Jiang Baocu replied: "Yes."
"Then will my sister get the first prize?"
Before anyone could respond, Gu Shiting spoke up: "Definitely."
Sheng Tang laughed first.
At this moment, she wanted to reach out and ruffle both Sheng Zong and Gu Shiting’s heads. These two kids were too adorable, worshiping her like she was on a pedestal.
When she laughed, everyone else followed suit.
Jiang Baocu once again looked at Gu Shiting in surprise.
She really didn’t expect it; Gu Shiting usually had a high and mighty attitude, yet in front of Sheng Tang, he displayed this kind of sweet demeanor.
This is not right, young master, this isn’t your usual persona!
"You really can’t judge by appearances; men are all pig trotters, inconsistent inside and out." Jiang Baocu thought to herself, summarizing silently and nodding with conviction.
She seemed to suddenly understand men.
Sheng Tang laughed again.
When the sea bass arrived, Gu Shiting kept serving Sheng Tang. He barely ate, either serving her dishes or chiming in with her conversation.
All in all, he seemed like a loyal knight silently guarding his princess.
Jiang Baocu thought Young Master Gu was very cold and needed to be taken care of by others.
But it wasn’t like that.
Not only could he take care of himself, but he also managed to take great care of Sheng Tang.
The Sheng Family members saw this and were pleased as well.
After the meal, the Sheng Family members returned home, and Jiang Baocu deliberately lagged behind a few steps.
She wanted to talk to Gu Shiting.
This was Mr. Gu, and he never interacted with anyone at school. Jiang Baocu, who loved collecting gossip, was full of curiosity about him.
"You’re not leaving?" Sheng Tang asked her.
Jiang Baocu: "..."
This friend who favors romance over friendship.
