Stepped Over Her Vicious Stepsister To Become The True Bigshot! Chapter 170

170 Second Master Has A Something Going On
In the kitchen, Huang Jun said to grandmother while stir-frying the vegetables, “Why do I feel that that Little Xiang is more than Manman’s ordinary friend?”
“Not an ordinary friend? Then what is he?” The old lady blew at the fire with a lighter before looking up and asking.
“The way he looks at Manman doesn’t feel like an ordinary friend. I think he likes our Manman.”
Huang Jun’s words made the old lady frown. “This… Manman is in a relationship? There’s the college entrance examination. It will affect her studies.”
“Aunt, don’t worry. I’m just guessing. Besides, Manman doesn’t look like she’s in a relationship,” Huang Jun comforted her.
People in love would always reveal their emotions, but Gu Man was very polite to Little Xiang. It did not seem like she was in a relationship.
“In other words, Little Xiang is targeting our Manman?”
“Looks like it to me.”
Huang Jun nodded.
“No wonder he sent our Manman here from so far away. It seems like he’s trying to please her,” the old lady said in realization.
“Aunt, don’t complain about Little Xiang first. I think he knows his limits and didn’t make it obvious. It’s just that as an elder, I observed carefully and made such a guess.”
Seeing that the old lady took it seriously, Huang Jun reminded her, “When they come back later, don’t show any emotions. If I’m wrong, it’ll be really awkward.”
The old lady scolded jokingly, “I’m just telling you in private. It’s not like I don’t like Little Xiang. One look and I can tell that he’s a very reliable person. In the future, even if they fall in love, I won’t object. It’s just that Manman can’t be disturbed at this time. If Little Xiang can’t even wait this long, then I was wrong about him.”
“Don’t worry, I believe they will know their limits,” Huang Jun advised happily.
“I hope so. Manman is the one I’m most worried about. Previously, when I was alone in the Gu family, I was afraid that the Gu family would treat her badly. Now, for the sake of my illness, I don’t know what Manman told the Gu family. It’s all my fault. Not only can I not protect her, I even have to make her worry.”
Seeing that the old lady was sad, Huang Jun said helplessly, “Auntie, how many times have I told you? Manman has her own arrangements. Don’t think too much. Just think about how you can watch Manman go to university, work, get married, and have children in the future.”
The old lady smiled through her tears. “You only know how to persuade me. You were just worried about Manman in the beginning.”
“I think I heard them talking. I’ll go out and take a look.” The old lady put down the fire tongs and quickly left. As soon as she came out, she saw Gu Man and the others walking into the courtyard. It was unknown what Xiang Yin was saying to Gu Man, but he was looking down at her with a smile.
The old lady muttered in her heart, There’s really a situation.
Seeing that Gu Man was not shy and her eyes were lowered as she listened quietly, the old lady was relieved. At least her Manman did not fall for it.
“You’re back. Hurry up and sit down to rest. The dishes will be served soon.” The old lady greeted them warmly.
“Then should I help you set the table?” Xiang Yin walked forward and was about to enter the kitchen.
“No need, no need. Just go and sit down. There’s nothing to eat. Manman, bring Little Xiang to sit down,” the old lady instructed hurriedly.
“Okay.” Gu Man stopped being polite and sat down at the table in the courtyard with Xiang Yin.
Huang Jue looked at them and felt that he should not go over first, so he ran into the kitchen.
After a while, he came out with a large bowl of soup.
“Grandma, come and sit too. Let Huang Jue serve the dishes.” Gu Man stood up and pulled Grandma over to sit beside her.
The old lady said happily, “Okay, I’ll enjoy myself.” Then, she turned around and asked Xiang Yin, “Little Xiang, I’m just afraid that you won’t be used to such rough food.”
“Grandma Huang, don’t say that. It’s not easy to eat a farm meal. There’s no fertilizer or pesticide. It’s so rare. You can’t eat it in Han City,” Xiang Yin said with a smile.
The old lady chuckled when he heard that. “Speaking of which, it’s true. These are completely harmless fruits and vegetables. You can rest assured eating them.”
Xiang Yin scooped the soup and the dishes on the table were all served. Huang Jue pointed at the dishes and introduced, “Dad went to the river in the morning to get this fish. This smoked meat was smoked with the cypress tree log behind the house. These dried bamboo shoots were picked from the mountains and dried by us. This melon in this melon seedling soup was also planted by my family. It’s the sweetest.”
