Chapter 354 I'll Take You Home



After careful consideration, Su An pushed the menu away.

The queen said cautiously, "It's better to order Mr. Gu. I don't have any dietary restrictions."

She smiled at Gu Jingchen, with obvious confusion and a hint of nervousness on her face.

Gu Jingchen paused slightly, sensing her uneasiness, and didn't say anything more. He just took the menu again, glanced at it, called the waiter over again, and quickly reported two more dishes.

When Su An heard the familiar name of the dish, his heart suddenly tightened slightly.

Longjing shrimp and crystal fish balls...

What Gu Jingchen ordered...why were all the things she used to like to eat?

Is it... a match?

Just as Su An was thinking, she heard Gu Jingchen casually order two other dishes. They also sounded very delicious, but they were not what she usually ate.

Su An finally breathed a sigh of relief and felt more at ease.

None of her little movements escaped Gu Jingchen's eyes.

In the past, he didn't want to pay too much attention to Xia Xiaomo, and sometimes he would even deliberately look away, not wanting to pay too much attention to her.

But now...

Being at peace means having an expression that shows one can't hide what's on one's mind!

When she announced the names of the two dishes just now, she seemed a little nervous!

He hadn't noticed before!

Gu Jingchen stared at the menu, and kept an eye on Su An's direction from the corner of his eye. After adding another dish of soup, he put the menu down.

The waiter turned and left.

The surroundings became quiet again.

This was not the first time Su An was alone with Gu Jingchen.

But for some reason, I felt inexplicably nervous this time.

Just as she was thinking about it, she saw Gu Jingchen pick up the cup in front of him, as if he wanted to pour a cup of tea.

Su An came to his senses instantly, and subconsciously reached out to take it, apologizing: "Sorry, Mr. Gu, I should have poured you tea..."

"It doesn't matter."

Gu Jingchen seemed not to care about this at all. He avoided Su An's attempt to take the teacup and poured a cup of tea himself.

After that...

Put it in front of Su An.

Su An blinked, feeling a little overwhelmed by him again.

This tea...

Did Gu Jingchen pour it for her?

"cough……"

Gu Jingchen coughed lightly, distracting Su An from his thoughts.

Su An raised her eyes suddenly and met his deep and mysterious gaze.

Then I heard——

"Xia Xiaomo, you still seem afraid of me?"

Both of them are already very familiar with this name.

But for some reason, Su An suddenly felt that the three words "Xia Xiaomo" spoken by Gu Jingchen this time unexpectedly carried a hint of tenderness.

What on earth is this...

Su An suppressed the doubts in his eyes and answered honestly: "A little bit."

A little bit?

Gu Jingchen raised his eyebrows.

Although I have never been sure about An An's identity before, but when I think about it carefully, he should have been pretty nice to her during this period, right?

I haven't lost my temper...

Gu Jingchen suddenly felt somewhat relieved that he had managed to maintain his current appearance without knowing anything about it. He then continued, "Actually... I'm only serious when I'm working. You can relax a little in private. You don't have to be so nervous every time you see me."

"Okay, Mr. Gu."

Su An agreed immediately.

His expression did not relax at all, but became even more tense.

Why is Gu Jingchen saying all this for no reason?

Who dares to relax too much in front of him?

Even Assistant Tang, who has been with him for so many years, shouldn't be able to do it, right?

Su An secretly complained in his heart, and the suspicion in his eyes became more and more obvious.

Gu Jingchen also realized that his "comfort" seemed to have no effect.

On the contrary, it made the atmosphere a little awkward.

Okay, at this time, the four dishes and one soup ordered by the two were served.

The waiter's appearance broke the silence in time, and made both of them breathe a sigh of relief.

"Mr. Gu, your stomach is uncomfortable. Drink some soup first."

Su An was very discerning this time. He picked up the small bowl, filled it with half a bowl of soup, and placed it in front of Gu Jingchen.

Gu Jingchen couldn't help but feel warm in his heart when he saw this.

In the past, An An also took care of him in this way.

But later on, he could only experience this feeling in his dreams. He never thought that he could still experience it now...

Gu Jingchen's mind moved slightly, and his eyes swept over Su Anying's fingertips picking up another small bowl. It felt like a kitten's claws gently scratched his heart.

He wanted to take care of her if he could.

Sit side by side with her and have a sweet dinner together.

only……

If you do too much now, it will scare her.

He has to take it slow and let An An get to know a brand new Gu Jingchen!

Later, I fell in love with him again.

An hour later—

The two chatted casually about work and had dinner in a relatively peaceful manner.

After leaving the restaurant, Su An remembered that Gu Jingchen had just asked the driver to leave.

She hurriedly said dutifully, "Boss Gu, let me take you there."

Unexpectedly, Gu Jingchen waved his hand, then opened the passenger door and said in a deep voice, "Get in the car."

"I...sit here?"

Su An was a little surprised.

"Um."

Gu Jingchen threw out another word, but his tone left no room for doubt.

Su An had no choice but to stop asking questions, opened the car door and got in.

Then he saw Gu Jingchen opened the door and got in the car, sitting next to him. Then he asked, "I remember your home is in the city center?"

"yes."

Su An answered subconsciously.

After saying that, he suddenly realized something and lost control of his expression again, his eyes widening slightly.

Gu Jingchen asked her where her family was and what they did.

Could it be that he wanted to send her home?

"Boss Gu, are you...going to send me off?"

Su An asked hurriedly.

Gu Jingchen raised his eyebrows, and when he saw that she finally reacted, he immediately felt in a good mood and nodded.

"Yeah, it's just on my way."

He said it casually, and with the last word, the car started.

Su An's brain went blank for a moment.

Just on the way?

Gu's villa and her home are divided into two different areas!

"Mr. Gu, if you need anything, I can just take a taxi home myself. How can I ask you to take me home..."

Su An had a hunch that something was not right and wanted to refuse immediately.

But the car had already driven out, and there was no way to stop it now.

Gu Jingchen said casually, "I just happened to be going over there to take care of some personal matters. You drank so much yesterday, so you'd better not drive today."

The reason sounds absolutely perfect and impeccable.

Su An wanted to refute, but didn't know what to say for a moment.

She simply felt that nothing had changed between her and Gu Jingchen since she got drunk last night.

It seems that nothing is different again.

She was very happy that she could continue to contact Gu Jingchen as originally planned.

However, I am not at ease.

What went wrong?
