Sun Lanlan glanced at Liu Dahui, who was eating in the distance, unsure of what to say.
These past few days, Liu Dahui had been showing up at the Bun Shop almost daily, always right after lunchtime when there were fewer customers.
If Sun Lanlan was in the lobby, he would even greet her.
If she wasn’t around, he would leave shortly after finishing his meal without lingering.
It seemed like he really just came to eat buns, but Sun Lanlan felt a bit irritated whenever she saw him.
As a business, they couldn’t shoo away a customer who had come to eat.
Su Wensong watched her slightly irritated expression and pursed his lips, seeing Cai Jun cleaning tables nearby, he walked over.
"Is Factory Director Su here for a meal?" Cai Jun asked.
Su Wensong pointed directly at the distant man and said, "Do you know what’s the deal with him?"
Cai Jun glanced at Liu Dahui and nodded, "He’s pretty much a regular at our Bun Shop, coming in every day recently."
Hearing his matter-of-fact tone, Su Wensong furrowed his brow.
He heard that Cai Jun visited the Sun Family over the Spring Festival; does that mean their relationship is out in the open now?
Seeing the man every day, hasn’t he noticed Liu Dahui’s covetous looks towards Sun Lanlan?
It’s not that he was being nosy, but the situation that day seemed quite dangerous, leading him to check up on this Liu Dahui.
It turned out that there was some history between Liu Dahui and Sun Lanlan, and now he’s visiting the Bun Shop every day, seemingly harboring old feelings, planning to pursue Sun Lanlan?
He wondered if Cai Jun was genuinely naive or pretending to be, with a rival in love practically at his doorstep, yet acting as if it was none of his business.
"Don’t you think his purpose for coming here is not purely innocent? I heard he’s from Mazhuang Town below, nearly twenty kilometers from the county. He travels this far just for buns?"
Worried about Sun Lanlan’s safety, Su Wensong still decided to give a warning.
Cai Jun looked baffled, "If he’s not here for buns, what else would he come to the Bun Shop for?"
Su Wensong’s sharp gaze lingered on Cai Jun for a moment before turning back to Liu Dahui.
Liu Dahui was staring at Sun Lanlan, his gaze almost clinging to her, which darkened Su Wensong’s face even more.
Following his line of sight, Cai Jun finally realized, "He... he couldn’t be interested in..."
Su Wensong gave him a cold glare, and Cai Jun quickly lowered his voice, "Could he be interested in Sun Lanlan? As if that toad could eat swan meat?"
Hearing his tone, Su Wensong frowned even more.
What kind of attitude was that?
Su Wensong had given his reminder and said no more.
He figured Cai Jun, knowing Liu Dahui’s intentions, would be more cautious.
If needed, he would make time to come back a few more times over the next few days.
