Not far away, Gu Hua, who almost fell, covered his forehead with one hand.

She looked at He Huaichuan who was nearby with a dull look in her eyes.

He Huaichuan hugged her loosely but didn't touch her.

"I noticed that you were not in a good condition and thought you were going to fall." In just three seconds, He Huaichuan withdrew his hand, but did not stand too far away from Gu Hua.

Gu Hua tried hard to stay calm and stand firm.

The dullness in her eyes faded away, leaving only clarity.

"I know you're a gentleman and you didn't offend me." He didn't touch her waist, but just looked at her from a distance. He held her in his arms, "My legs are weak, just take it slow."

There was a wall beside Gu Hua, and she supported herself with her hands, hoping to use it to take a break.

In Gu Hua's impression, He Huaichuan is a handsome and well-educated gentleman.

He kept himself clean and stayed away from all women.

She had never seen him behave in an out-of-character way toward any woman.

So she didn't think much about it.

She just thought he approached her out of politeness.

So, once she stood firm, he automatically kept a safe distance from her.

"I'll stand here with you." The implication was that if she couldn't hold on, he could help her.

He Huaichuan looked straight ahead and spoke in a meticulous tone.

But the corner of his eyes never left Gu Hua.

When Gu Hua felt better and no longer felt dizzy, she and He Huaichuan stepped into the elevator and went upstairs.

Disappeared in Song Zhili's angry gaze.

Upstairs, He Huaichuan ordered.

After all the dishes were served, Gu Hua found that they were all his favorites.

"I didn't expect that we have the same taste. We can both eat spicy food." Gu Hua didn't even start eating, but just took a sip of water.

"I always like spicy food." He Huaichuan said calmly.

If anyone who knew him was present, they would be shocked.

I can't believe this is what He Huaichuan said.

Obviously, He Huaichuan doesn't like spicy food at all.

Whenever there was spicy food on the table, he would never touch it.

Not to mention liking it.

But Gu Hua didn't know He Huaichuan's preferences and thought that He Huaichuan really liked spicy food.

She smiled and said, "Since you like spicy food, you can enjoy it to your heart's content."

"The portion isn't that big, we should be able to finish it."

After sitting down, Gu Hua relaxed and her face wasn't so pale anymore.

Instead of a table full of spicy dishes, there was also a serving of bone soup.

They are all home-cooked dishes, mostly spicy.

"Eat more." He Huaichuan picked up the chopsticks and said to Gu Hua who was sitting opposite him.

Since it was her favorite food and she was hungry, she had to eat her fill.

He Huaichuan's tone was normal, steady, without any ups and downs, and without the slightest emotion. He seemed to treat Gu Hua as an ordinary friend.

What he said was somewhat casual.

"Okay, let's all eat more." Gu Hua was on the second floor and could hear the noise downstairs, but she pretended not to hear it.

Don't let your mood be affected.

He Huaichuan didn't say anything else, but the corners of his mouth slightly turned up, revealing his unknown thoughts.

After finishing the meal, He Huaichuan didn't even frown.

However, the beads of sweat that kept oozing out of his forehead sent him a signal.

It shows that he is not feeling well at the moment.

Gu Hua noticed this, but didn't think about it in other directions.

After all, she wasn't much better.

I was sweating all over, my cheeks were red, and my stomach was bloated.

After resting for a while, she felt less uncomfortable.

"I'm used to it. Although it's not very comfortable, I enjoy the meal very much." She felt very happy as she hadn't enjoyed a meal so much in a long time.

In the past, she had always been quite restrained in order to accommodate Song Zhili.

I won't eat so much as I want.

Moreover, Song Zhili can't eat spicy food very well, so there are rarely spicy dishes on the table.

During their relationship, she and he would often make plans to have dinner together whenever they were free.

It was really hard for her.

She loves spicy food, but she forced herself to have a lighter taste.

"It's important to be happy when you are alive." After resting enough, He Huaichuan and Gu Hua went downstairs.

Gu Hua listened to He Huaichuan's serious words and looked at his solemn face. She teased, "You look like an antique."

He does things in the same way, very straight and honest.

Almost like an antique.

He Huaichuan had sharp eyebrows and starry eyes, and his expression was cold.

Faced with Gu Hua's teasing, he was mature in thinking, but he didn't quite understand what she meant. But when he saw her talking and laughing, his heartstrings loosened.

There was a long silence, and he didn't reply to her.

Just when Gu Hua thought he would remain silent, He Huaichuan's expression tensed. He opened his thin lips slightly and spoke to Gu Hua word by word: "I am the same age as you, but not that old."

When Gu Hua heard this, she laughed even more happily.

I knew he didn't get the joking in her words.

Although he is not very old, he is the same age as her, but he always acts in an old-fashioned way and is calm and reliable, which makes it easy for people to subconsciously ignore his age.

It's not wrong to say that he is an antique.

However, Gu Hua did not explain to He Huaichuan any further.

After reaching the first floor, Gu Hua came out of the hall and had to cross the courtyard.

The Song family dinner had not yet ended, but many people had left.

There aren't many people left.

As soon as Gu Hua and He Huaichuan appeared in the courtyard, they saw Song Zhili waiting downstairs.

Su Yining was determined to stick with Song Zhili, so she didn't leave.

"I'll drive over here. Wait for me and I'll take you home." Although he was still angry, with He Huaichuan around, Song Zhili didn't want to make things out of control.

I didn't want He Huaichuan to laugh at me.

They are all men, so he must know what He Huaichuan is thinking about Gu Hua.

He planned to wait until Gu Hua got in the car and then give Gu Hua a good beating so that Gu Hua would be on guard against He Huaichuan.

He Huaichuan looked at Song Zhili's defensive expression and found it funny.

When Song Zhili asked Gu Hua to come to He's to discuss cooperation, he should have understood that he would have more contact with Gu Hua.

Besides, he and Gu Hua were only involved at work.

So, what is Song Zhili worried about?

It's simply because he feels guilty that he loses his composure.

"If you take me home, what about Su Yining?" Gu Hua did not agree immediately, but asked Song Zhili instead.

According to Song Zhili's previous style of doing things, he would have just left Su Yining in the restaurant. "Her affairs are none of my business! Besides, she's not broken, can't she drive herself back?"

However, Su Yining's method worked. Even though Song Zhili had not answered her yet, Gu Hua had a feeling that this time it would be different.

Song Zhili may not be so determined.

As expected, Gu Hua saw Song Zhili frowning slightly. His tone was hesitant, but he didn't sound like he was discussing something, nor did he sound like he was asking for her opinion.

Instead, he made his own decision: "I'll see her off first, and then we'll go back together."
