Chapter 242: Chapter 242 Eating Hot Pot

"There’s no way around it," Guihua said, "Gu Junming hasn’t sent any news yet, seemed like the child is gone. Could it be he’s sold?"

Sun Chan tightened her grip on the chopsticks, really hoping nothing happened to that child.

Just then, someone came in from outside, "Are you guys busy?"

It was Yang Zhen, smiling as she came in carrying a bag.

They all stood up together, "Why did you come?"

"The unit gave out some shrimps, I don’t know how to cook them, so I brought them over."

Guihua was delighted, "Oh dear, these are good stuff! Clean them up and put in the hotpot! Just what I’m craving. I remember there’s still some dried tofu outside, slice it in too!"

"Got it," Yang Liu also stood up, "I’ll go across the street to buy some leafy greens. Anything else needed?"

Yang Zhen hesitated for a moment but didn’t hold back, requested a few more vegetables, and Yang Liu went out to buy them.

Everyone chatted and laughed as they cleaned things up, cooked the shrimps, and the aroma was enticing.

Just about to eat, someone else arrived. It was Yan Kai and a comrade, unfamiliar to Sun Chan, around twenty-five or six, and not bad-looking. He had a good relationship with Gu Junming and had heard of Sun Chan, so he greeted her promptly.

"This is my friend, Liu Jun. He’s going somewhere for business tomorrow, wants to stay overnight in X City. I thought since you run a hotel here, I’d bring him over. Don’t hold back, charge him more, it’s on public funds anyway!" Yan Kai laughed.

The more familiar they got with Yan Kai, the more it’s known that he liked to joke. Everyone laughed along.

"Welcome, welcome," Guihua smiled, "Perfect timing with the hotpot, join us for a meal, don’t be shy! Sun Chan, get a bottle of liquor!"

Sun Chan sighed and stood up. Went upstairs and returned with two bottles of beer and one bottle of baijiu.

Originally, only a few girls were eating, naturally not drinking, but now with the two men, drinks were necessary.

The two men were not pretentious, sat down together, eating hotpot was lively with more people. Guihua was generous, plenty of ingredients, all kinds of delicious food for everyone, so everyone was quite happy eating.

Sun Chan asked Yan Kai, "Any news from Gu Junming?"

Yan Kai slightly frowned, "Well, he didn’t see Su Miao, waited with the railway police but ultimately didn’t see her. Now we’re thinking, maybe she didn’t get off the train, went somewhere else? I told him, search for a couple more days, if it doesn’t work out, come back. It’s not something he can handle alone, the higher-ups can’t keep giving him leave."

Sun Chan bit her lip and said, "Zhao Yingjun hasn’t got any news either."

Zhao Yingjun insisted on going to the unit, didn’t care what Su Jinxiu was up to, but the child was important. If he knew the child was gone, he wouldn’t be silent like this. Likely he’s avoiding Su Jinxiu causing a fuss, hiding away. Still doesn’t know the son is gone.

Liu Jun said, "Su Jinxiu needs to report to the police, we’re just soldiers, can’t handle this matter indefinitely."

"Indeed. Gu Junming only stepped in due to hometown connections. Now it’s not viable. Better have him come back, can’t delay work forever, and besides, Su Miao is quite bad, if Gu Junming doesn’t come back..." Sun Chan was a bit worried, afraid Su Miao might want to harm people.

Yan Kai said, "Don’t worry, Gu Junming is a soldier, an ordinary person cannot easily be his match. No matter how bad Su Miao is, can’t commit murder, everyone knows she left with the child, can’t escape successfully."

Sun Chan could only nod her head.

Yan Kai chuckled, "This guy’s twenty-five already, still no girlfriend. Hey, talking to you Liu Jun, anything to say!" 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝙚𝔀𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝒐𝒎
