After Xie Shang took a phone call outside, he reentered the house where the Gu Family’s housekeeper invited him to stay for dinner, which Xie Shang accepted.

The Xie Family and the Gu Family were old friends, and Xie Shang had often visited the Gu Family since his youth. The housekeeper knew his taste, but she wasn’t sure about Miss Wen’s dietary restrictions. The door to the mahjong room was closed, and she hesitated whether to go in and ask.

“She can’t eat spicy food and prefers sweets,” he said.

“Alright, Mr. Xie.”

The housekeeper always found Mr. Xie to be special, as he was the only guest who remembered the surnames of all the Gu Family’s housekeeping staff.

Neither of the two “young masters” from the Gu Family had ever brought a girl home, while the two “old masters” had secretly brought back quite a few for thrills. Not one of them stayed for a meal, but they did leave behind birth control pills. It never occurred to them to remember the tastes of their female companions.

Gu Yihuan threw in the towel, “As a great singer, I don’t bother with romance!”

Suppressive education didn’t work on Gu Yihuan; Young Master Gu excelled at inflating his own value.

“Young Master? You dare call yourself ‘young master’ to me?”
