Chapter 185 Encounter



After the two got in the car, he asked, "Let's go eat now?"

"First, send my cousin to the nearby subway station. He has something to do and needs to leave first."

Hu Jun said, "Thank you for your help."

Zhou Huaijing glanced at Hu Jun through the endoscope, started the car, and drove to the nearby subway station.

After dropping the person off, Zhou Huaijing drove slowly on the nearby road.

"First time in the capital?"

"Um."

Zhou Huaijing looked at Hu Lin through the endoscope and didn't believe it.

How could anyone be so indifferent when going to a completely unfamiliar place for the first time?

But I have to believe it.

After returning, he settled down and asked someone to investigate the situation of the Hu family. He was very sure that the Hu family had never traveled far for three generations.

"Then I choose the place?"

"Okay." Hu Lin responded and turned his head to look at the street outside.

This strange yet familiar city made her sigh, "Time goes back," what a nice word.

Zhou Huaijing stopped at the entrance of Beijing Hotel. Hu Lin looked at the sign, feeling a little confused.

At this time, there are still hotels that exist.

It is worthy of being the capital city, where hidden dragons and crouching tigers are hidden.

"This restaurant only sells Beijing cuisine, and also entertains foreign guests."

Zhou Huaijing locked the car and explained.

The two got off the car one after the other.

Zhou Huaijing only said a few words, but there was a lot of information in them!

I didn't expect Zhou Huaijing to bring her to such a place. It seems that although he is on guard against her, he really treats her as a benefactor.

The two of them asked for a small private room, and Zhou Huaijing handed the menu to Hu Lin.

"See if there's anything you want to eat."

Zhou Huaijing said as he poured a cup of hot tea for each of them.

There are not many dishes on the menu, and the names are extremely simple. Most of the famous dishes are preceded by the word "Beijing".

"Let's have shabu-shabu mutton and roast duck." Hu Lin said, handing the menu to Zhou Huaijing.

Zhou Huaijing took the menu, put it on the table, and added to the waiter: "Add one serving of black fungus and one serving of shredded potatoes."

Hu Lin looked at Zhou Huaijing's familiar appearance, holding a small porcelain cup of tea in his hand, rolling it back and forth between his thumb and index finger.

When I came in just now, the people I met along the way were all people wearing uniforms and Zhongshan suits, with sentries, and some foreigners.

This place is not accessible to ordinary people.

When Zhou Huaijing looked over, Hu Lin raised the porcelain cup and took a sip of the warm green tea.

For a while, the two of them didn't speak again, and they drank their tea in silence.

When the shabu-shabu mutton was served, Zhou Huaijing asked, "How long will you stay in the capital?"

"A few months." Hu Lin was preparing the seasoning.

When Zhou Huaijing heard Hu Lin's answer, he paused, looked up at Hu Lin, and continued to prepare the seasoning for himself.

"Are you planning to stay in the hotel all the time?" He thought Hu Lin would only stay here for a few days.

You can't tell, but she's quite rich.

"I don't know anyone here, and my cousin is already living with someone else, so what's the point of me moving in there?

We can only take it one step at a time.”

Hu Lin prepared the seasoning and when he looked up, a calculating look flashed in his eyes.

Hearing this, Zhou Huaijing frowned, making him look even sharper.

"Do you need help?"

This is what I've been waiting for.

Hu Lin's lips curled slightly, and he pretended to be reserved, "This is not good."

After hearing this, Zhou Huaijing frowned.

A pair of eyes like knives stared at Hu Lin, "When did you become so polite?"

He had spent a very short time with Hu Lin, but he still had some understanding of her character.

What's more, she often appears in letters home.

From those fragments he knew what Hurin had done.

The person inferred from those things is completely different from the person pretending to be with him.

The look in front of Hu Lin made him feel disgusted.

Zhou Huaijing's impolite words made Hu Lin stunned for a moment, and he narrowed his eyes subconsciously.

He really doesn't like gossip.

The current Zhou Huaijing is completely different from the one he was in Xiaohe Village.

With the Zhou family around, he is like an unsheathed sword, with its edge restrained.

After leaving the Zhou family, he took off the sheath, and it was so sharp that people dared not look directly at it.

"So do you have any good plans?" Hu Lin said in a serious tone, his voice cold.

"Tell me the purpose of your visit to the capital first, then I will consider whether to help you."

Zhou Huaijing put the mutton next to it into the pot.

"Don't tell me that you didn't stay home for the New Year just to come and see your cousin and stay here to watch over him for a few months."

The mutton was cut thinly and was cooked after being boiled for dozens of seconds. Zhou Huaijing scooped a few slices of mutton into Hu Lin's bowl.

"Try it."

Hu Lin glanced at Zhou Huaijing who was bending over, then looked at the steaming mutton in the bowl.

She smiled, picked up the mutton with chopsticks, dipped it in water, and tasted it.

β€œIt tastes good.”

After eating, Hu Lin commented.

She made an exception and did not talk while eating.
