770: Chapter 768: The Girl Who Rents with Gu Han
In other words, Gu Han could have relied on her looks to get by, but she chose to depend on her talent instead.
Unfortunately, she only had an associate degree, hadn’t even attended university, and didn’t have much talent to speak of, so she lived a rather impoverished life, unwilling even to pay for cable TV.
Of course, Wang Dadong didn’t point that out.
Before long, Gu Han had finished cooking the als, a dish of braised pork, one of shredded pork with hot peppers, one of stir-fried pork, so stir-fried hollow vegetables, and a small pot of tomato and egg drop soup.
Though they were all common household dishes, they looked quite appealing in terms of color, fragrance, and taste.
“Why hasn’t Gu Ming co back yet?
I’ll give him a call,” said Gu Han as she wiped her hands on her apron.
“Big sis, I just rembered I have an important class this afternoon, so I went back to school.
You entertain Brother Da Dong well, and next ti, I will join you both for dinner,” Gu Ming’s voice ca through the phone.
Gu Han didn’t think much of it and hung up the phone.
“Big sis, I’ve created the opportunity for you, you have to seize it!” At the other end, Gu Ming clenched his fist lightly.
He was very confident in his older sister’s looks.
No worse than those stars on TV; it’s just that his sister didn’t want to beco one.
Otherwise, at the very least, Gu Han would be a model by now.
“Gu Ming told
he has classes this afternoon and has already gone back to school, so we don’t need to wait for him,” Gu Han said to Wang Dadong.
Wang Dadong naturally understood that Gu Ming was intentionally creating a situation for him and Gu Han.
“All right then.”
The two started eating.
Gu Ming wasn’t bluffing, Gu Han’s cooking was indeed very good, perhaps because the children of the poor learned to take charge early,
Wang Dadong ate deliciously, scarfing down large mouthfuls, while Gu Han ate daintily, her ten bites hardly equating to one of Wang Dadong’s.
While they were eating, the door suddenly opened, and one of Gu Han’s roommates ca back.
It was the single girl Gu Han had ntioned.
At that mont, the girl was embracing a middle-aged man.
Seeing Gu Han, she didn’t greet her but walked straight to her room, opened the door, and pulled the middle-aged man inside.
“Didn’t you say she didn’t have a boyfriend?” Wang Dadong asked curiously, looking toward the door.
Gu Han looked sowhat embarrassed, “Let’s continue eating.”
After a few minutes, the girl and the middle-aged man ca out of the room and left the rental together.
Wang Dadong felt sowhat disdainful; that was too pitiful, he hadn’t even finished a bowl of rice yet.
A few minutes later, the girl ca back, still embracing soone, but it was not the middle-aged man from before.
Without paying any attention to Gu Han, she took the man into her room.
“Now you understand why she doesn’t have a boyfriend, right?” Gu Han said with a flushed face.
Wang Dadong’s face twitched; he hadn’t expected that the girl, who looked no older than eighteen, was engaged in that kind of profession.
The two continued eating.
This ti, after the girl sent the man away, she didn’t go out again, seemingly wanting to rest for a bit.
“Xiao Wei, I’ve made so food, co have a bit,” Gu Han said to the girl who was about to go back to her room.
The girl looked back at Gu Han, then walked straight to the table, didn’t bother with formalities, served herself a bowl of rice, and started eating.
During the al, she didn’t say a word, seemingly completely oblivious to the presence of Wang Dadong in the room.
After finishing, she put down her bowl and returned to her room.
Wang Dadong slightly furrowed his brow.
It wasn’t his place to judge the girl’s occupation, but wasn’t this a bit rude?
Gu Han had invited her to dinner, shouldn’t she at least have said thank you?
Gu Han whispered to Wang Dadong, “That’s just how she is, don’t mind her.”
Since Gu Han didn’t mind, Wang Dadong naturally didn’t make an issue of it either.
Then, Gu Han began to clear away the dishes.
While he was washing the dishes, the couple returned ho.
Hearing the clattering sound of water in the kitchen, the Freckled Woman’s brow imdiately furrowed.
She walked into the kitchen right away.
“Didn’t I tell you not to let the water run continuously and not to turn it on so high, does water not cost money?”
“Got it,” Gu Han quickly turned the faucet down a bit.
“And don’t turn on the lights during the day,” the Freckled Woman said, and turned off the kitchen light with a flick of her hand.
Only then did she and her man return to their own room.
Wang Dadong silently shook his head.
Was this the lifestyle of the petty-minded?
To haggle over every cent spent on water and electricity.
In life, many people constantly complain about how dissatisfied they are with their lives, questioning why fate is so unfair, why they are so unlucky.
But in reality, they have no idea that many people are worse off than they are.
“Ouch!”
Suddenly, while washing dishes, Gu Han let out a cry of pain.
Wang Dadong hurried over, only to see Gu Han holding a finger in his mouth, his delicate brows slightly furrowed.
“What happened?” Wang Dadong asked worriedly.
“I, I was washing the knife just now, and I accidentally cut my hand…” Gu Han said with a bit of grievance, his big eyes watery, invoking pity.
Wang Dadong looked around the kitchen and noticed the lighting wasn’t very good.
With the light on, it wasn’t so bad, but once it was off, it beca very dark.
Gu Han must have cut his finger because the Freckled Woman had turned off the kitchen light, and he could not see clearly, which made Wang Dadong feel even more heartbroken.
“Let
see?” Wang Dadong gestured for Gu Han to show him the finger.
Gu Han took his finger out of his mouth, revealing a centiter-long cut on the pale tip, from which fresh blood was freely flowing.
Wang Dadong extended his finger, gently passing it over Gu Han’s wound, and where his finger touched, the cut imdiately healed.
Gu Han widened his eyes, “What, what is this?”
Wang Dadong gave a faint smile, didn’t say much, looked at the dishes still not washed, and said, “I’ll wash.”
“How can that be, you’re a guest, how can I let you do the dishes?” Gu Han said hurriedly, not comfortable with letting Wang Dadong wash dishes.
“Obey, your hand is injured, and you shouldn’t get it wet,” Wang Dadong said sternly.
Seeing that Wang Dadong looked like he was getting angry, Gu Han could only respond with an ‘oh’, sounding like a little kitten, very pleasant to hear.
Then Wang Dadong began washing the dishes, and Gu Han stood behind him, watching him do the dishes.
Even though the kitchen light was very dim, it didn’t affect Wang Dadong’s vision at all.
