I Refuse to Be a Supporting Character
Chapter 48: Like a Mother Nagging



The chief looked ridiculous as he laughed at himself. 'Could he be in love?' Wang Tuo wondered.


Tong Lin stood up and patted him on the shoulder, saying, “You have worked hard today. You can go back to your dorm. I'll invite you to dinner tomorrow.”


Before leaving, Wang Tuo looked back and saw the Club Chairman looking down while fiddling with his phone.


[There's no need for me to reward writers for web novels. I can invite him to dinner]


[You two know each other?]


Gu Jin was a little surprised.


He sighed as he thought about how blessed Tong Lin was. Not only was he the club chairman of the literary society, he also had a lot of talent and everyone he knew was amazing.


[Well, would you like to join us for dinner?] She asked.


[Sure, but I don't know when I have time] Gu Jin quickly responded.


Even though she invited him to dinner with the writer, she could not help but hesitate a little. Gu Jin sighed once more. Why did the topic turn to dinner?


However, the 'Old Man of the Mountain River' was someone who was talented in writing, so it wasn't a bad idea to get to know him better. Moreover, after creating their magazine, he would need the help of someone to check out his draft. Then isn't it a good idea to stick it on his thigh first?


[When okay]


Oh?


It seemed that Tong Lin and the 'Old Man of the Mountain River' were very familiar with each other, seeing that they could schedule a meal at any time.


Gu Jin made some calculations before asking, though,


[I've been pretty busy lately. How about we meet in five days?]


The other side paused for a moment before replying:


......................


The takeout order took a while to arrive and Gu Jin's stomach was rumbling from hunger. To pass the time, he decided to call his sister back.


In the past, Gu Teng had never taken the initiative to summon the real Gu Jin. However, ever since Gu Jin was currently visiting the house, his sister seemed to have flipped the switch; from then on, Gu Teng frequently sent out his messages on WeChat and occasionally made video calls.


Seeing the brothers get along well lately, Gu Jin's mother felt bitterly sweet.


Meanwhile, Gu Changsheng was eating his son's vinegar. As an erudite man who was frank, he was ashamed to show that he wanted to love and pamper his own daughter.


(T/N: eating vinegar means sour out of jealousy)


A father's love is like a mountain, though he is not always good at expressing himself.


“Well, remember to call me back,” said Gu Teng annoyed. Gu Jin could imagine the boy's knitted forehead as he frowned.


After finishing the college entrance exam, Gu Teng was like a bird coming out of his cage; he was ready to break free and do whatever he wanted. These days, he had never slept earlier than twelve o'clock at night.


It was past 9pm when he had the most energy.


Gu Jin smiled amusedly. He didn't seem to care about her upset tone. “I forgot to take my phone out of silent mode so I couldn't see your call until I decided to order takeout.”


“Takeout? Why haven't you eaten?” Gu Teng scolded her with a frown, “You are still young and you haven't eaten enough. Why so? Are you trying to lose weight?”


Without waiting for Gu Jin's reply, he continued, “With your skinny appearance, you can't get married if you lose more weight. You have to eat more to stay healthy. I will make sure to take care of you in the future!”


Gu Jin pulled his phone and rubbed his ears. She never imagined that her sister could be such a chatty mother.


However, he looks five points similar to their handsome father and beautiful mother. Which part of Gu Jin was lacking?


And besides, which person will try to lose weight when he eats late at night?
