Chapter 1038: Getting Married on the Spring Equinox
Gu Wanqiu looked at the smile on Gong Qing's face and immediately knew that she was being teased. She pretended to be angry: "Okay, you actually dared to lie to me."
Gong Qing quickly changed the subject and took Gu Wanqiu's hand again: "Let's go, I'll take you around the neighborhood so you can get familiar with the environment and learn a few more roads."
They went to the nearby shopping mall and walked along the pedestrian street. Gong Qing chose very circuitous routes, turning left and right, and then went to an alley, crossed the alley and came to a street, then crossed a bridge and arrived near Gu Wanqiu's apartment building.
Gong Qing deliberately took Gu Wanqiu to walk these complicated routes, but unexpectedly, Gu Wanqiu remembered them after just one visit. What was more surprising was that when he took her to the mall and the private customization store, she was very calm, not panicked, nor standing there stupidly. She could even understand some of the communication between him and the waiter.
Presumably, some of the knowledge was also deeply engraved in her memory, and now when she came into contact with it, her memory was mobilized.
When they went out to eat in the evening, it was Gu Wanqiu who led the way and took Gong Qing to a restaurant. She talked with the owner and looked at the dishes that were served. She looked at him proudly, and the corner of her mouth was raised with a smile that never went down.
Seeing that she was in such a good mood, Gong Qing couldn't help but smile.
Gu Wanqiu didn't know that while she was talking to the shop owner, Gong Qing had been watching her from behind with a gentle gaze. She also didn't know that the owner of this shop knew Gong Qing. When he wanted to say hello to Gong Qing, Gong Qing secretly raised an index finger to his lips, then pointed at Gu Wanqiu who was running happily in front, and signaled him with his eyes not to bother with him.
That's why the boss took the initiative to talk to Gu Wanqiu and cater to her.
Gu Wanqiu was a little nervous at first, but she didn't expect the boss here to be so warm and hospitable. All her worries were instantly dispelled. After communicating with strangers and gaining recognition, she became more and more confident.
The signature dish was successfully served. Gu Wanqiu picked up a piece of fish and placed it in Gong Qing's bowl. "Hurry up and eat. The boss said this fish dish is their signature dish. Everyone who comes here must order it. It's delicious. He even told me how to make it."
"Can you understand everything he says?"
Gu Wanqiu shook her head. "I didn't understand everything, but I was familiar with some of the words. I pieced them together and figured it out. I think it's related to my past self."
"How is it?" Looking at Gong Qing eating the fish, Gu Wanqiu leaned over slightly, staring at him without blinking, waiting for his answer.
"tasty."
"No, I was asking how I behaved today. Can I go out alone? When I return, I can go to work."
"Hmm..." Gong Qing drew out his voice. Gu Wanqiu opposite him looked at him nervously, waiting for a satisfactory answer.
"Okay, I'll arrange it for you when we get back." He couldn't keep Gu Wanqiu by his side forever. Everyone is independent and free. Restricting a person too much will only make them rebellious.
"I plan to stay abroad for half a month. I have some work to do. I'll accompany you for more outings while I'm here. If I'm not here, you can go out on your own..."
Before Gong Qing could finish his words, he was interrupted by Gu Wanqiu's exclamation: "Really? Can I really go out here alone? Are you kidding me?"
"Of course not. I keep my word." Gong Qing changed the subject, "But the premise is that you must be home by eight o'clock. You can't stay outside for too long, and you can't go to places you haven't been to. The places I'm taking you to today are all safe areas. You can go alone. Remember?"
Gu Wanqiu nodded: "I remember, I promise not to wander around and be home before 8 o'clock on time."
…
Gong Qing accompanied Gu Wanqiu for another two days, strolling around. On the third day, Gu Wanqiu went out alone. Gong Qing gave her a bank card. She didn't buy anything with the card. She mainly ate and occasionally bought jewelry worth a dozen yuan in the pedestrian street.
She listened to Gong Qing very much and said she would be home before 8 o'clock in the evening, so she usually arrived at 7 o'clock. When Gong Qing came back and saw her cooking at home, he thought she had not gone out all day.
After seeing the dishes, I realized that she had gone out to buy vegetables today.
Gu Wanqiu has no talent for cooking. The only dish she knows how to make is scrambled eggs with tomatoes. On weekdays, when she and Gong Qing are at home together, it is Gong Qing who cooks. She just helps out at most. Gong Qing won't let her do anything, not even wash the dishes.
She bought tomatoes and eggs today, planning to make scrambled eggs with tomatoes and a tomato and egg soup.
When Gong Qing comes back from work, I can also cook a vegetarian dish, of course, it will be left to Gong Qing to cook.
The range hood was turned on quite loudly, and Gu Wanqiu, who was lost in thought, didn't notice Gong Qing coming back until a pair of hands touched her back silently. She suddenly froze, almost scared to death. She turned her head and saw that it was Gong Qing. She couldn't calm down anymore and was still in a state of confusion, with her face slightly pale.
"Did it scare you?"
"I was so scared. How come you came back without making a sound?"
"It's my fault. I shouldn't have suddenly appeared and scared you. I just wanted to... give you a surprise."
"Surprise?" Gu Wanqiu then noticed that Gong Qing was holding a box in his hand.
Seeing that Gu Wanqiu finally looked over, Gong Qing opened the box. Inside was a blue diamond necklace with a blue gem pendant. It was very beautiful, and it was obvious that it was very expensive from its exquisiteness.
"Are you giving it to me?" No woman doesn't like beautiful jewelry. Gu Wanqiu naturally likes jewelry like diamonds and gemstones.
"Do you like it?"
Gu Wanqiu's eyes fell on it and nodded: "I like it."
"I'll bring it to you."
Gu Wanqiu turned around obediently, and Gong Qing put the necklace around her neck. The slightly cool touch made her shiver as she touched the blue gem on it.
"Qiuqiu, will you be my fiancée?"
Gu Wanqiu turned her head in surprise: "Haven't I always been your fiancée?"
"No, the fiancée I'm talking about is someone you can marry, someone you'll never fall in love with..." In other words, will you marry me? Gong Qing stared at Gu Wanqiu cautiously, anxiously waiting for her answer. Suddenly, he felt a chill on his forehead, and Gu Wanqiu touched his forehead with worried eyes.
From her expression, one can understand what she meant.
This person has a fever and his brain is damaged, right?
"My brain doesn't have a fever, so there's no need to touch it." Gong Qing held her hand with a smile.
"You can definitely marry your fiancée. What are you thinking? Besides, who else can I like and be with besides you?"
"Shall we get married next year on the Spring Equinox?"
"Why did you choose this day? Does it have any special meaning?"
It is August now, and the vernal equinox is in March, so there are still seven months left. Seven months is enough for preparation. Gu Wanqiu doesn't want Gong Qing to wait too long, as she is afraid of disappointing this man's deep affection.
