Chapter 353 Dinner



"You can take a nap if you're tired. Those tasks are not urgent right now."

Gu Jingchen suddenly spoke, his tone slightly concerned.

Su An was stunned when he heard this.

Even the driver in front couldn't help but look back with a surprised expression.

"Thank you, Mr. Gu. I'm not tired."

Su An came to his senses and shook his head hurriedly, turning on the computer in his hand.

After drinking so much last night, she was of course a little tired.

But……

It would have been fine if Gu Jingchen didn't blame her, but now he actually asked her to rest?

Did the sun rise from the west?

Is this still the Gu Jingchen who has extremely high demands on his staff?

Or was he just feeling a little guilty about what happened last night?

This... doesn't seem normal...

After all, he was the boss and had the absolute power to decide on the employees' retention. Even if he felt guilty about something, he had already said in the morning that he would compensate him with a bonus...

Is he testing her?

Su An thought about it and couldn't help swallowing. After yesterday's inexplicable "shock," he worked even harder than usual.

Seeing this, Gu Jingchen sighed helplessly in his heart.

He could tell that the person in front of him was not very comfortable.

It made him feel very distressed.

But... now I can only express my concern appropriately and not go overboard.

No conversation along the way.

The journey to 䋤䮹 takes four hours.

Su An is not a workaholic. After being busy for a while, he will look at the scenery passing by quickly outside the window, just as a break.

The two of them set out at around 1:00 p.m.

As dusk approached, the car finally drove slowly into the area.

Su An looked at the familiar scenery around him and finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Finally here...

This business trip, she was injured and frightened by Gu Jingchen, which made her miss the familiar environment at home.

If Gu Jingchen has nothing else to do next, why not just separate here?

Ask the driver to drop her off at the next intersection so he can take a taxi home first...

Gu Jingchen shouldn't have any objection, right?

Su An was thinking and was about to speak——

"Turn left at the next intersection."

Gu Jingchen suddenly spoke and said the opposite direction of the navigation.

"Boss Gu, you...are not going home anymore?"

The driver was stunned. Although he expressed his doubts, he still changed direction as Gu Jingchen said.

Su An also frowned and asked, "Boss Gu, where should we go to handle the work?"

"No……"

Gu Jingchen almost blurted out the words of denial.

He only said one syllable, but suddenly changed his mind and said ambiguously: "I guess so."

Su An immediately did it, without asking any more questions, and made plans to continue working.

The car turned a corner.

Not long after, Gu Jingchen said again: "Turn right ahead."

"yes."

The driver drove in the direction Gu Jingchen said again.

Su An became more and more confused.

This area is almost entirely filled with commercial streets...

There are basically no finance-related places, but rather entertainment places.

What work can Gu Jingchen discuss here?

Just thinking about——

"Okay, stop."

Gu Jing spoke again.

Su Anmeng was shocked and saw that the car just stopped in front of a restaurant that looked very high-end.

He recognized this restaurant!

The entire interior is famous for its health and wellness and expensive!

But the dishes here are very delicious and light in flavor, so they are very popular.

Is Gu Jingchen here to eat?

"Xia Xiaomo, get out of the car."

Gu Jing's voice and Su An's thoughts overlapped.

He didn't seem to intend to explain why he came here. As he spoke, he pushed the door open and took a step forward.

Su An hurried to catch up.

As soon as I got out of the car, I heard Gu Jingchen say to the driver: "You go ahead and leave the car here. I'll drive home later."

"Okay, Mr. Gu."

The driver nodded in agreement, then got out of the car and handed the car keys to Gu Jingchen.

Gu Jingchen took it casually and turned directly into the restaurant without any explanation.

Su An had no choice but to catch up again, and finally realized what was going on.

Gu Jingchen must have made an appointment to meet someone here, right?

but……

If you want to meet someone, shouldn't you give her the relevant information in advance?

Gu Jingchen didn't say a word on the way!

She didn't even know the other party's identity or purpose. What if something went wrong...

Su An was a little uneasy, and just wanted to ask -

A waiter came over and asked Gu Jingchen if he had a reservation.

Gu Jingchen's answer was denial.

Then the two of them carried him on their backs and walked towards the seat.

The decoration here is very exquisite.

There are private rooms with completely isolated spaces.

There are also buildings like ancient pavilions between the small bridges and flowing water, separated by gauze and screens, which have a unique flavor.

Gu Jingchen was afraid that Su An would feel uncomfortable, so he deliberately did not choose a closed private room.

As soon as we sat down, the waiter handed us the menu and asked in a friendly manner, "Is this your first time here? Do you need any recommendations for special dishes?"

"No."

Gu Jingchen refused and signaled the other party to leave first.

Su An finally found the opportunity to speak and asked hurriedly: "Mr. Gu, didn't you say you were here to work? Why..."

She looked at Gu Jingchen hesitantly. She thought she understood what he wanted to do, but now she was confused.

Gu Jingchen looked at Su An, who was puzzled but didn't dare to ask too many questions. The corners of his lips couldn't help but curl up slightly.

Then he said seriously, "I didn't eat anything at noon, and now my stomach is a little uncomfortable, so I want you to have a meal with me. As an assistant, this should also be part of the job, right? So I said it's work, is there any problem?"

Su An: "..."

It seems there is no problem.

But why go through so much trouble?

Even if Gu Jingchen directly asked her to come for dinner, she wouldn't dare to refuse!

Anyway, her primary goal now is to get close to Gu Jingchen!

I wish there were more opportunities like this!

Su An secretly complained, and seeing that Gu Jingchen was still waiting for him to speak, he hurriedly said: "Of course it's work. If Mr. Gu feels unwell, there is a pharmacy nearby..."

"You don't need to take medicine, just eat something light."

Gu Jingchen interrupted Su An and casually opened the menu.

Then……

Suddenly he turned the menu on the table and pushed it towards Su An!

He said gently, "You order first. You can choose what you like. You're welcome."

"I……"

Su An looked at the menu in front of him, and his mind suddenly went blank for a moment.

Something is wrong.

Something is so wrong.

What happened to Gu Jingchen all of a sudden?

Although he was usually nice to her, he was still a little strict and spoke to her with a sense of distance between a boss and a subordinate.

But after last night...

Why did this sense of distance seem to disappear suddenly?

Is it her illusion?
