Chapter 330 You are really a clear soup master
Her tastes and Gu Bei's are just like their names, completely different and have nothing in common.
As a devoted fan of Hunan cuisine, Gu Nan first tried the reddish-brown sandfish. The fish was tender, but the salty and sour taste was not to his liking.
Gu Nan slowly put down his chopsticks and asked casually, "Do you like these dishes, Mom?"
Gu Jin was serving soup to Gu Nan. He paused when he heard this. There was obvious surprise on his face, and there was even a hint of solemnity in his surprise.
She carefully observed Gu Nan's expression for two seconds, but couldn't see any clues before asking, "Did something happen?"
A casual question that could not be called concern actually made Gu Jin worried. It was hard to imagine how strained the relationship between mother and daughter was in the past.
Gu Nan lowered his eyes and said, "Mom knows all the dishes I like, but I don't know what Mom likes. I hope that next time we eat together, Mom can order the dishes she likes."
Gu Jin placed the soup next to Gu Nan and said softly, "Thank you, Xiaobei."
Gu Nan raised her eyes and saw Gu Jin smiling at her. There were a few fine lines at the corners of his eyes, and his expression was so gentle that it made people's heart tremble.
Being stared at by such loving eyes, Gu Nan felt as if he was shot by an arrow in the heart, and he almost couldn't hold the chopsticks in his hand.
Gu Jin's love for Gu Bei is infinitely tolerant. She will become anxious if she gets a little bit of return, and then double her investment in return.
Faced with such unconditional love, Gu Nan was very afraid that his image would collapse.
The atmosphere was somewhat silent for the next half hour. The two of them lowered their heads to eat, occasionally glancing at each other. It was not awkward, but rather particularly harmonious.
Neither of them ate much at this meal. Gu Nan didn’t like it, and Gu Jin... Gu Nan guessed that she didn’t like it either. She never picked up the braised shark fin once.
After returning home, Gu Nan asked the system to help her search the Internet for entries related to her.
Very good, not a single one.
Gu Nan felt relieved and happily typed code for two hours.
All the classes for review week were finished, so she could stay at home all week, with minimal risk of exposure. Gu Nan was very satisfied and enjoyed herself typing away at her computer every day.
Gu Jin goes out early and comes back late every day. If she gets off work early, she will buy groceries and cook at home. If she gets off work late, Gu Nan will order takeout at home. In any case, she will stay at home if she can avoid going out.
She no longer reads entertainment news. People like Nansheng and Wangding, all of them, get away.
The final exam for the senior year was very simple. Gu Nan reviewed for two days and successfully got through the exam week.
After leaving the examination room, Gu Nan put on a scarf and a mask and went to the Medical University next door to find Gu Jin.
Last night, Gu Jin said that a colleague gave her two tickets for a hot spring experience. It was a newly opened hot spring resort on the outskirts of the city. It had just opened and was in need of customers, so it gave out a lot of tickets.
Gu Nan didn't want to go at first, but when he heard that it was a new museum with a real living spring and a private courtyard, he couldn't help but be tempted.
So today’s plan is to go to the resort to soak in the hot springs, stay overnight, and go home tomorrow.
Gu Jin had a lot of things to do and hadn't finished yet, so Gu Nan went to her office to wait for her for a while.
At seven o'clock in the evening, the two arrived at the resort.
Logically speaking, there should be a lot of people who like to take a hot spring bath in winter, and the resort has given out a lot of tickets, so it should be very lively at this time, but the situation is completely the opposite. It is quiet here. If it were not for the bright lights and staff everywhere, one would wonder if there is something fishy going on.
The service staff took the two people to a yard, briefly introduced the facilities in the yard to them, handed them a guide for use, closed the door and left.
Gu Nan discovered that all the staff here were wearing thin soft-soled shoes. They must have been trained, so their footsteps were very light and they made almost no sound when they walked.
No wonder the resort is so quiet.
After putting down their luggage and checking the safety of the facilities in the room, the two changed into their swimsuits and bathrobes and went to the private hot spring to soak.
As they entered the water, a safety officer stood silently at the door.
After a while, someone came over and asked if I wanted water and food.
Gu Nan ordered two bottles of water and a fruit plate. The waiter brought the items in quickly and without looking away.
Gu Nan sighed, "The service here is so attentive, it doesn't look like they're short of customers at all."
Gu Jin was soaking in the water very comfortably, leaning against the wall of the pool and then lying down. Hearing this, he said lazily, "Who knows?"
After a pause, she continued, "The ticket was given to me by Professor Yang. She posted it on her WeChat Moments here a few days ago, and everyone in the office has one. Otherwise, I wouldn't have brought you here."
Her word order was a little reversed, but the general meaning was that the ticket came from a reliable source and she could enjoy the hot spring trip without worry.
Gu Nan relaxed and lay down by the pool, feeling the comfort of the water caressing his body.
Soaking in hot springs is really comfortable and the environment is quiet. If you are not careful, you will feel hungry.
Gu Jin heard her stomach rumbling and smiled, "Don't stay in the bath if you're hungry. Let's go upstairs and eat something."
The two put on bathrobes, went into the room and ordered two dinners. When they finished, it was exactly nine o'clock.
It was too early to go to bed at this time, and it was not convenient to do anything, so the two of them decided to watch a movie.
At eleven o'clock, the two turned off the lights and went to bed.
There are three bedrooms in the yard, but the two of them chose to sleep in one room with one bed.
The small wall lamp was not turned on, the curtains were drawn tightly, and the room was pitch black. The body's senses were magnified by the darkness, and even the slightest movement of the people around me could be clearly perceived.
Gu Jin lay flat on his back, his voice gentle, sighing, "It's been a long time since I slept with you like this."
Gu Nan leaned towards her and whispered, "Me too."
Gu Jin smiled, turned over and patted Gu Nan on the head, "Good night."
Gu Nan: "Good night."
Feeling refreshed and relaxed, Gu Nan fell asleep quickly.
I was sleeping in the middle of the night when I was suddenly awakened by a muffled sound.
Gu Nan thought that Gu Jin fell when he got up to go to the bathroom, and subconsciously looked to his side, but Gu Jin was lying flat on his back, breathing peacefully, and was obviously sleeping soundly.
She breathed a sigh of relief and opened her bracelet. It was three o'clock in the morning.
"System, what was that noise just now?"
System: [Someone fell into the water in the yard next door. Uh, face down, seems dead.]
Gu Nan: “…”
It's unbelievable that I encountered such a bad thing when I came out to take a hot spring bath.
Gu Nan sent a distress message to the resort staff and asked, "Was it an accident or homicide?"
[Ah, he doesn't seem to be dead!] The system was startled: [He moved a little, but couldn't get up. He started thrashing around. He must have choked on the water.]
The system concluded: [If no one tried to rescue him, he would have died. This should be considered an accident.]
Gu Nan: “…”
System, you are such a simpleton!
Gu Nan sat up, threw back the quilt and was about to go to the next room to rescue someone. He hesitated halfway through putting on his shoes and said, "Scan to see if there are any suspicious people nearby."
System: [No, not a single person.]
Gu Nan no longer hesitated. He picked up the bathrobe thrown on the sofa, put it on, and rushed out of the room.
