Not many people were dining out at this hour.
Upon arriving at the restaurant, the group found a good spot and began ordering and eating.
During the meal, the three elders couldn't help but offer Su Xiaotian numerous pieces of advice.
Yu Ruiyuan became increasingly worried as she spoke.
Xiaotian was a young girl, and still so young. Yu Ruiyuan was very concerned about her living at school.
"You're so small, you really make us worry. Xiaotian, why don't we buy a courtyard outside the school, and I can come take care of you? You can live at home."
After saying this, Yu Ruiyuan felt even more that she had a point.
Living at school was not as convenient as living at home.
Yu Ruiyuan felt she had nothing else to do anyway, so it would be better to come and take care of Su Xiaotian near the school.
The three young men were clearly surprised that Yu Ruiyuan had such an idea, and even more so that Grandpa Du agreed.
"Old woman, you're right. Xiaotian is young, and I'm also worried about her living at school. I think we should do as you say and buy a courtyard near the school. We'll both come to take care of Xiaotian!"
Chi Ge had not expected such a turn of events.
Du Tonghe and Yu Ruiyuan were truly treating Su Xiaotian like their own granddaughter!
Su Xiaotian quickly said, "Godfather, Godmother, I'm fine living at school. Besides, Brother Yiyuan is here, and he can take care of me!"
Seriously, they were all university students now. How could they be so unmotivated as to wait for their families to meticulously care for them?
However, Su Xiaotian dared not say this out loud.
If she did, her Godfather and Godmother would surely have a mountain of reasons waiting for her.
"Then how about we buy a house here, and we won't come, but you'll live at school? Let this brat Yiyuan accompany you?" Du Tonghe asked tentatively.
But as soon as he said this, Su Ciliang was the first to object.
"Grandpa Du, that won't do. Men and women should not touch. Xiaotian is already a young lady!"
This brat Chi Yiyuan had been eyeing his little sister for more than a day. Letting him live with Xiaotian? Was he kidding?
Su Xiaotian herself felt it was inappropriate.
"Godfather, Godmother, I'm fine living at school. I'm so cute, my dorm mates will surely take care of me. Please don't worry!"
Although she didn't want Du Tonghe and his wife to buy a house to take care of her, Su Xiaotian thought it would be quite good to buy a house near the school herself.
She had plenty of money now anyway. She would inquire later, and if there was a suitable courtyard or shop, she would buy it. It would appreciate in value just by holding it.
Su Xiaotian knew that in the next thirty years or so, buying a house would never be a loss, no matter when.
Therefore, as long as the price wasn't outrageously high, she could buy it.
The two drivers listened to the family's conversation and were truly astonished.
They were quite familiar with Su Xiaotian and knew she was very capable, even the factory directors showed her respect.
They never expected her family to dote on her so much.
It was truly an eye-opener!
However, as drivers, they kept to their duties, saying nothing, and just waited for the food to arrive before eating diligently and listening to their conversation.
Indeed, the food at this restaurant was quite good. Although it was a little less delicious than that at Yiming Pavilion, it was still very good overall.
At this time, quite a few people had already come in one after another.
Soon, all the tables in the not-so-small establishment were filled.
This showed that the business here was truly good.
In a flash, Su Xiaotian suddenly thought of a problem.
Didn't her sister-in-law want to open a branch?
Perhaps choosing a location near the university would be good.
Although it didn't seem like a good choice near the university at the moment, in reality, university areas would be prime locations for decades to come.
University students were a group with very strong purchasing power.
"I think sister-in-law could open a restaurant here, and I guarantee it would be a booming success!"
If this restaurant was approved by her brothers, it must be the best restaurant in the area, and her sister-in-law's cooking was definitely superior to the chefs here.
Hearing Su Xiaotian say this, Yu Ruiyuan's previously dejected mood instantly brightened.
"Xiaotian, that's a good idea."
Li Linlin was also a good child. If she could come, Xiaotian would have someone to look after her.
Su Xiaotian didn't expect that just a casual remark from her would lead to Li Linlin finding a small two-story building near the school to open a restaurant just a few days later.
After finishing lunch, Su Xiaotian and Chi Yiyuan saw the others off.
Su Ciliang specifically pulled Chi Yiyuan aside and said, "Chi Yiyuan, I'm telling you, my little sister is still young. No improper thoughts are allowed!"
Little sister was only thirteen this year, the age of first love. It would be bad if she were deceived by Chi Yiyuan, who had ulterior motives.
Chi Yiyuan looked at Su Ciliang, who seemed as if he wanted to devour him, and said calmly, "I'm not a beast, you can rest assured!"
How old was Xiaotian this year?
No matter how much he liked Xiaotian, he wouldn't make a move when she was this young.
Su Ciliang stared intently at Chi Yiyuan for a long time.
Convinced that Chi Yiyuan was not lying, he believed him.
After all, they had known each other for many years, and Su Ciliang had great faith in Chi Yiyuan's word.
However, it wasn't enough to guard against Chi Yiyuan alone. Their little sister was too beautiful. Even though she was young, there might be beasts out there!
"You're at school, you need to look after Xiaotian, and don't let anyone deceive her!" Su Ciliang added.
Fortunately, he would be returning next year to pursue his postgraduate studies, and then he could personally look after his little sister.
If Su Ciliang hadn't promised his teacher that he would travel around for this year, he probably would have moved near the school by now to personally look after his little sister.
Chi Yiyuan looked at Su Ciliang and nodded solemnly.
Of course, he wouldn't let anyone deceive his little girl!
The little girl was so wonderful, he wanted to cherish her himself and absolutely not let anyone else lay a finger on her.
"I promise to look after Xiaotian, second brother, so don't worry!"
Su Ciliang did not notice the anomaly when Chi Yiyuan called him second brother.
Su Xiaotian watched her second brother and Chi Yiyuan, wondering what they were whispering about!
Why did her second brother look so menacing?
On the other hand, Brother Yiyuan's demeanor was very calm. They shouldn't be fighting, right?
They shouldn't be, right? Second brother and Brother Yiyuan's relationship wasn't good, but they shouldn't be fighting.
Of course, if they could fight, that would be great. At least she could see who was more skilled between the two!
Su Xiaotian's lips curved into a smile as she thought about it.
When Chi Yiyuan and Su Ciliang turned back, they saw Su Xiaotian's smile...
