☆, Chapter 99: Cooperation and Mutual Benefit
"Mom and Dad, I have to go back to the company and won't be with you." Gu Yan came over and said to his father and mother.
Hearing this, Gu Lan quickly said, "Mom and Dad, I'm going back to the hotel and won't be riding in the same car with you. The driver will come pick me up soon. You can just go first and don't have to wait for me."
They are all workaholics!
Father Gu complained in his heart, waved his hand, and told the two to get out.
Fortunately, their caring little friend Gu Ran went back with them. Just as Gu's father was about to turn around and call Gu Ran, Gu Ximing walked towards him.
"Dad, I have something to do too. I have to meet a client soon, so I won't be going back with you."
"You..." Father Gu was very helpless, "Why do you schedule so many tasks?"
Always make some time to spend with your family.
"It's enough to have Gu Ran accompany you. Besides, we will all go home at night."
Gu Ximing smiled and waved to stop a taxi on the side of the road.
"Then I'll be leaving first. Ask the driver to drive slower on the way back."
"Get out of here, you little bastard!" Gu's father scolded.
The group went their separate ways.
After everyone had left, only Gu's father, Gu's mother and Gu Ran were left, and they got into the business car they came in.
The business car can only seat three people, which is very spacious, but also a bit deserted.
Gu Ran took out his cell phone and idly watched two short videos. He couldn't help but think of Bai Yifan.
[My second sister and third brother are all so busy, so Mr. Bai must be very busy too, right? After all, he has to manage such a large company.]
[I guess Mr. Bai will go straight back to the company.]
[When I get busy, I have even less time, and I guess I won’t contact me.]
[I can’t just sit there and wait for someone to contact me.]
[Something should be done.]
Gu Ran thought about it and felt that in her current state, she was certain that she liked Bai Yifan.
She felt that she had to express her feelings, but she had to find a serious opportunity.
Gu Ran began to search for some romantic restaurants in City A.
She decided to find time to invite Bai Yifan to dinner together. At that time, in the romantic scene of candlelight and piano, she would express her feelings.
As for whether Bai Yifan would agree or whether he would hold a grudge against her for the stupid things she had done before, that was all Bai Yifan's choice.
She just needs to do her best, do her best, and leave the rest to fate.
[Restaurant restaurant.]
[This one seems good, but it requires reservations and membership, which seems a bit cumbersome.]
[Forget this place. Just to be clear, I'd rather not eat Japanese food. It feels weird.]
[Western food, Western food, Western food is best.]
[Hey, this cruise ship just started its trial operation not long ago, it looks pretty good.]
Gu Ran found a cruise ship restaurant that he really liked among many promotions.
This cruise ship specializes in French cuisine. It will depart from the west port of City A and sail around the sea, passing several beautiful places and also having a fireworks show.
Finally, the cruise ship circled back to the port. The whole journey took about three hours, which was also the time for lunch.
Because it is a newly opened restaurant and is still in the trial operation period, the number of reservations is still moderate.
There are not many pictures related to the restaurant. Gu Ran found a few experiences posted by guests who had been there and felt that the quality of the photos was good.
Because the price is relatively high, there are not many people, the space is large, and the privacy is good.
The dishes are also very good, and in Gu Ran's opinion, they are worth the price.
There was also a fireworks show in the middle, which was enough romance for her.
[This is it, let’s see if there are many reservations.]
[There are still two vacancies for tomorrow night. Reserve one first and we'll see. If it doesn't work out, we can cancel it later.]
Gu Ran acted decisively and immediately booked a seat for tomorrow night at 8 o'clock.
After exiting the interface, she carefully sent a message to Bai Yifan.
Gu Ran: Mr. Bai, have you returned to the company? Are you busy now?
Bai Yifan replied quickly: Still on the way, is there anything wrong?
Gu Ran: It’s nothing important. I just saw a newly opened cruise ship restaurant. It looks pretty good. I wanted to ask if you have time tomorrow.
Gu Ran: 8 o'clock in the evening, it won't interfere with the daytime work. The whole process is three hours, so it won't be too late.
Bai Yifan: Okay, I’ll pick you up tomorrow night.
Gu Ran didn't expect the other party to agree so readily, and was even a little flattered.
But it was soon filled with joy.
[Great! Bai Yifan agreed. This restaurant reservation wasn't in vain!]
I have to perform well tomorrow!
[I have to dress up nicely. I'll go home and pick out the most beautiful dress.]
In the back seat, Father Gu and Mother Gu, who were dozing off, looked at each other and saw the same helplessness in each other's eyes.
Female students are not allowed to stay in college.
…
At five o'clock in the evening, Bai Yutang saw off the last wave of guests, and the engagement party between the Bai and Liu families finally ended.
This engagement party was not perfect, after all, there were many small incidents in the middle, and the guests also had some fun.
But overall it cannot be said to be a failure. After all, it was indeed a grand and lively event, and both the guests and the hosts had a great time.
The Bai family settled the hotel bill and separated from the Liu family at the hotel entrance.
In order to avoid Nan Xianxian, Bai Yutang left in the same car with his father and mother.
However, Tang Yi did not go with her parents. Instead, she drove her sports car alone to a coffee shop on the corner.
The front of this coffee shop is not big and the decoration is very simple. It seems inconspicuous, but when you walk in, you will find a different world inside.
The privacy is very good and the area is large. The Mediterranean decoration style is unique and fresh, and the aroma of the coffee is also very rich.
"This place is nice. I've never been here before."
Tang Yi found Gu Ximing in the corner by the window and sat down opposite the man.
Gu Ximing pushed the menu that had been prepared on the table to her.
“The coffee tastes very good and is of good quality. Order a cup and try it.”
"Which one do you recommend?" Tang Yi picked up the menu and flipped through it. There were dozens of kinds of coffee alone, so she casually asked Gu Ximing.
Gu Ximing mentioned a few of his favorites. "They're all very good and rich. If you don't like sweet, try the first two."
"Okay, let's drink the first one." Tang Yi picked up the ordering device next to her and pressed the selection button on it.
This cafe is semi-self-service. After the customers make their selections on the ordering machine, the barista will start making the food, and the waiter will serve it when it is ready.
The waiter will not be always at the front desk. If you need anything, you can call him using the order machine.
Tang Yi likes this model very much. Even when she goes to a store to buy things, she doesn't like the salesperson to be too close to her. She enjoys the pleasure of exploring alone more.
"Next time I'll bring Yuanyuan here to try it out. I think she'll like it too."
The fragrant hot coffee came up, Tang Yi picked it up, took a sip, and said with a smile.
The Yuanyuan she mentioned was her good friend Liu Yuan, who had helped the two of them a lot today and had personally sent the confused and drunk Uncle Bai to Gu Ximing's room.
