Chapter 1024: Just consider it my gift to you

In fact, what makes Mr. Xu most depressed is why it is not Xu Jingchen and Gu Ning who are together, but Leng Shaoting!

He thought that Xu Jingchen was not much worse than Leng Shaoting! Of course, it wasn't that he couldn't bear to see Gu Ning and Leng Shaoting together, it was just that everyone wanted a girl as good as Gu Ning.

Gu Ning is so outstanding. If he had such a granddaughter-in-law, he would be so proud.

Grandpa Xu thought so, not because he looked down on a granddaughter-in-law who was not as outstanding as Gu Ning. Whether she was outstanding or not, as long as his grandson liked her, it was fine. But if he could choose, who wouldn't want an outstanding granddaughter-in-law!

"Grandpa Jiang, Grandpa Xu, if you like any of them, just take one each! Consider it my gift to you." Since Gu Ning took out the "Hibiscus by the Water" and gave it to Grandpa Leng in front of them, he naturally planned to give one item to Jiang Zhongyu and Grandpa Xu respectively. Otherwise, wouldn't it seem that he was being too rude?

"How can that be possible? These items are so valuable. If we like them, we can just buy them ourselves. We'll be very happy if you have this intention." Jiang Zhongyu immediately refused.

Gu Ning wanted to give them gifts, and they were indeed very happy, but they did not want to take advantage of Gu Ning.

"Yes, yes!" Mr. Xu also echoed.

"Also, when I fell ill before, Old Man Leng gave me the medicine you gave him and I got better. So, I should thank you!" Jiang Zhongyu said.

"Grandpa Jiang, thanking me for this is really going too far. The gift I gave to Grandpa Leng is good, but it was Grandpa Leng who gave it to you. So, it doesn't make sense for you to thank me!" Gu Ning didn't know whether to laugh or cry. This was really going too far.

"If Old Man Leng wants to thank you, then naturally you should thank him too." Jiang Zhongyu disagreed. Without Gu Ning's medicine, he didn't know what he would become!

"Okay! Thank you if you want! However, you still have to choose the things. You are Grandpa Leng's brothers and friends, which means you are my grandfather as well. Therefore, the gifts my granddaughter gives to me are out of my heart. There is no such thing as expensive or not. If you don't accept them, it means you look down on me, Gu Ning." Gu Ning no longer argued with Jiang Zhongyu about the medicine, but she still had to talk about the antiques.

Gu Ning gave it to them sincerely, so naturally he hoped that they would accept it, and so he deliberately provoked them.

"You kid..." Jiang Zhongyu and Mr. Xu were so amused by Gu Ning that they knew Gu Ning was doing it on purpose! But there were some words that they couldn't refute even if they knew it was intentional.

"You two should stop being so pretentious. Don't you think highly of the gift my granddaughter-in-law gave you?" Old Master Leng also spoke up for Gu Ning. Although he didn't want Gu Ning to spend so much money, this was Gu Ning's intention.

Moreover, he could see Gu Ning's persistence, so he didn't want to embarrass her.

Since Mr. Leng had spoken, and they didn't want to upset Gu Ning, Jiang Zhongyu and Mr. Xu had to compromise. However, they were still very happy to receive the gifts.

Then, they each chose an item they liked and thanked Gu Ning.

Not long after, a few more antique collectors came. They were all acquaintances of Mr. Jiang Zhongyu Xu, so they were not surprised to see them.

But when they saw Leng Weihua, they were surprised and excited, because Leng Weihua's identity was not simple! And it was rarely seen.

However, because of Leng Weihua's presence, they felt restrained.

Not long after, it was already half past four. Everyone had looked at the items and rested for a while. Then Gu Ning invited everyone to have dinner.

Gu Ning asked a few old men where they wanted to eat.

Several old men don't like to eat in hotel meals because most of the food in hotels is fancy. It's not that the food is not delicious, but they prefer home-cooked food. Therefore, the places they often eat are private restaurants. So the group went to the private restaurants that the old men often go to.

This private restaurant is located in the suburbs of Beijing, quite a distance away from the Antique Street, but it is quite close to the homes of several old men, which Gu Ning thinks is a good thing.

It takes about half an hour to forty minutes to get from the antique street to the private restaurant, if there is no traffic jam. However, this is the off-peak period, so there is almost no traffic jam.

When we arrived at the private restaurant, it should be around five o'clock. Then we ordered the dishes and had to wait about half an hour for them to come. By the time we finished our wait, it was almost six o'clock. So it was just the right time to go there.

However, before you go, you have to call and ask if there are any private rooms available. Because this private restaurant is very popular, most reservations must be made in advance.

Fortunately, there were rooms available, so Gu Ning and others set off.

Old Master Leng asked Gu Ning to sit in his car and asked another bodyguard to drive the car for Gu Ning. Then Gu Ning got in Old Master Leng's car.

Along the way, Mr. Leng chatted with Gu Ning. After what they had just done together, Gu Ning didn't feel nervous anymore, but he was still a little uncomfortable.

I believe that no matter how strong a person's mentality is, he or she will feel uncomfortable facing the parents of his or her partner!

Of course, the premise is that you care.

More than thirty minutes later, the group arrived at the private restaurant, and it was already past five o'clock.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

This private restaurant is large, but it doesn't have many private rooms, only about 20. It's large, just to avoid making the space too crowded or too noisy.

As soon as they arrived, they saw the owner of the private restaurant standing outside the door.

The owner of the private restaurant was a middle-aged man in his forties. When he saw them get off the car, he immediately stepped forward to greet them warmly: "Mr. Leng, Mr. Xu, Mr. Jiang, you are here, please come in."

Although Mr. Leng and his companions were old customers and never put on airs towards him, their status was there, so every time, the owner of the private restaurant would come out to greet them personally, unless he was not in the store.

"Boss Cai, how is business today?" Mr. Xu asked with a smile, in a casual tone, as if he were an old friend.

"Thanks to you all, business is good." Boss Cai said with a smile, and then led everyone in.

However, as soon as he entered, he met an acquaintance of Mr. Leng, Shen Yanfeng.

Shen Yanfeng and his friends had just come here to eat. They had just received a call, so they came out to answer it. When they were about to go back, they saw Grandpa Leng and his friends.

When he saw Shen Yanfeng, Mr. Leng's originally kind face immediately turned serious. He didn't want to pay attention to him, but he took the initiative to greet him: "Uncle, Mr. Xu, Mr. Jiang, you are here to eat too!"

"Yeah, you too!" Mr. Leng responded with a neutral attitude.
