However, the restaurant owner did not dare to ask his questions out loud.
But things were different with the reporters present. They all recognized Gu Shaoting. Even though this was the opening night of a new restaurant, they would never let go of such explosive news.
Moreover, they had also heard from the boss that Tong Fei had been invited to the event, which was why they flocked there.
They already found tomorrow’s headline.
They pointed their cameras at the three of them and took a few photos.
Then, they waited for Tong Fei to appear.
People were coming and going in the restaurant.
Shu Pan held Joy’s hand tightly, worried that she would get lost in the crowded restaurant.
Gu Shaoting saw that and picked Joy up without a word.
He had wanted to carry her just now, but the little girl said that her teacher told them to walk on their own, that they were too old to be carried around by adults.
The little girl was full of such amusing reasons.
Gu Shaoting held Joy with one arm and held Shu Pan’s hand with his other hand without hesitation. Shu Pan was stunned. She instinctively wanted to shake off his hand but Gu Shaoting held it even tighter.
“It’s crowded in here. Follow closely. Be careful not to be knocked into.” Gu Shaoting explained like he had sensed her intention.
Shu Pan had no choice but to let him hold her hand.
Shu Pan’s couldn’t help but feel strange with her hand wrapped in his warm palm.
His hand was really warm, or perhaps Shu Pan’s hands were really cold especially when she was having her period. Her hands and feet were even colder during those special days in the month.
Gu Shaoting couldn’t help but frown when he touched Shu Pan’s hand. He made a mental note to help her regulate her health.
As he held her hand, Shu Pan realized that she missed the feeling of holding hands.
She secretly looked at him and realized that he was trying to clear a path for them, so she stopped overthinking the situation.
‘Mr. and Mrs., this way please.” A waitress greeted them politely. She had obviously misunderstood their relationship.
However, no one could be blamed for this. Anyone who saw them would assume that they were a family.
Gu Shaoting actually cracked a satisfied smile when he heard the waitress.
The owner of the restaurant had reserved a great spot for them to enjoy the beautiful scenery.
Gu Shaoting led the mother and daughter to their seats.
Then, they started to order. Because it was the restaurant’s opening night, Gu Shaoting ordered all their signature dishes.
“That’s enough. It’s wasteful if we can’t finish the food.” Shu Pan restrained him. There were only three of them.
“That’ll be all.” Gu Shaoting finally stopped ordering and handed the menu back to the waiter.
Just as they were waiting for their food, a commotion broke out at the entrance of the restaurant. Someone from the next table shouted, “There’s a celebrity here.”
Only then did Shu Pan look curiously at the entrance.
Wasn’t that Tong Fei? Sigh, fate would always make the enemies meet.
Even though she was seated quite far away from the entrance, Shu Pan recognized Tong Fei immediately.
After all, Tong Fei was tall and elegant. She always stood out from the crowd and was difficult to miss.
“Ms. Tong, do you know that Mr. Gu Shaoting is also here?” One of the reporters asked. Because he was very loud, everyone in the room heard him and kept quiet. They wanted to hear her answer. After all, these two had been in the headlines lately.
Tong Fei was slightly stunned, but she quickly realized that it was expected that he was here. After all, they both knew the restaurant owner, so it wasn’t strange for Gu Shaoting to come and support him on his opening night.
“Everyone, please let me through. It’s the opening night of my friend’s restaurant and I will not be answering any questions unrelated to the restaurant. Your understanding is much appreciated.” Tong Fei gave a very formal answer..
