Chapter 87: Chapter 087 The Treatment a Girlfriend Should Get
Qi Yue’s expression was somewhat indescribable, “…”
Ordering takeout…
Cooking personally…
Wasn’t Professor Shen’s double standards a bit too much?
No! How could anything related to an idol be criticizes as double stndards!
Actually, listening to Gu Huai’s description just now, there was nothing wrong with what Gu Huai said to Professor Shen. However, she had ample reason to suspect that Professor Shen and Madam Shen might have misunderstood something…
...
“Old Shen! Ah Huai’s friend has arrived!” After arranging the flowers, Madam Shen shouted in the direction of the kitchen.
After a while, the kitchen door slid open.
Adorned with an apron, Professor Shen emerged, holding a pot lid in one hand and a ladle in the other. Upon seeing Qi Yue, he immediately greeted her with a smile, “Miss Qi is here, please take a seat, have some fruit, rest for a bit. I’ve got just two more dishes to finish up!”
Just as warmly welcoming as Madam Shen.
Qi Yue, “…!!!”
She had met her idol!
When she saw him on TV, Professor Shen always looked so professional, stringent, and serious. This was the first time she saw him looking so amiable and approachable!
Upon seeing Professor Shen, Qi Yue immediately stood up straight and then bowed deeply at a ninety-degree angle, “Professor… Professor Shen, hello! Sorry for the intrusion… and for making you cook yourself! I… I can help you… Is there anything I can do?”
Professor Shen cheerfully responded, “There’s no need for you to do anything, you just wait to eat. Let Ah Huai keep you company for a chat or watch some TV. Dinner will be ready soon.”
After saying that, Professor Shen happily continued back to the kitchen to busy himself.
Qi Yue, “…”
Qi Yue stood there stunned for a moment, then turned to seek help from the nearby Gu Huai with a troubled expression,”Ah… this… isn’t right…”
Having Professor Shen cook and just waiting to eat?
Gu Huai brought over a platter of fruit and treats, placing them on the coffee table in front of Qi Yue, “It’s okay, please take a seat.”
Although Qi Yue sat down, she was on pins and needles, murmuring, “How could I possibly sit still…”
Gu Huai picked up an orange, peeled it, and handed it to her, “Why are you uneasy?”
Qi Yue accepted the orange, racking her brain for the right words to describe her feelings at that moment.
“Because… because I’m out of my league? No, that’s not right… A false representation? That’s not right either…”
Qi Yue looked at the slippers on her feet, then at Professor Shen in the kitchen, and finally at the orange in her hand, clearing her throat before speaking, “Anyway, it just feels… like this is the kind of treatment your girlfriend should be getting, right?”
Upon hearing this, Gu Huai spoke indifferently, “President Qi is overthinking it. Our family is just quite hospitable.”
The tone was one of it being the most natural thing in the world.
Qi Yue, “…”
Just quite hospitable???
Do you prepare slippers for a guest who only visits once?
For a not so close and especially a never-before-met guest, shouldn’t it be normal to meet at a restaurant for a meal?
Especially for someone like Professor Shen, to host someone at home and cook personally, and to cook for a junior like her…
That must be on the highest level of hospitality!
She… by what merits?
With her head full of question marks, Qi Yue asked, “Cough, master… are you serious… I feel like… you’re tricking me…”
Upon hearing Qi Yue’s last comment, Gu Huai let out a low chuckle from his chest and raised an eyebrow, “Otherwise? This counts as the treatment a girlfriend should get? Then President Qi is seriously underestimating my girlfriend’s treatment.”
Qi Yue looked astonished, “With this kind of treatment, it’s an understatement? Then your girlfriend’s… treatment is a bit too high…”
