Chapter 300 Can You Eat Well?
Gu Ning originally planned to go to the airport to meet him after dinner. That way, the time would be just right and he wouldn't have to make an extra trip. But that would seem like he was trying to stop someone from coming to Beijing, which was not a good idea, so Gu Ning didn't want to do that.
Besides, people came to see her specially because they were worried about her, so she couldn't just refuse to entertain them!
* Xu Qinying is a girl, and she can't drive as fast and steady as Xu Jingchen, so it took her almost an hour to get there. As for the dishes, Xu Jingchen had already decided on the order, and didn't ask for their opinions.
Xu Qinying and Qiu Yuxin were quite reserved when eating at the same table with Leng Shaoting, so they didn't say anything. Xu Jingchen and Gu Ning also had no feelings.
Women have always been very gossipy, so Xu Qinying and Qiu Yuxin were quite curious about Gu Ning's family background and how she met Leng Shaoting and how they got together, but they didn't dare to ask, so they kept it to themselves.
During the meal, Leng Shaoting picked up food for Gu Ning from time to time. Their display of affection was unconscious, but it tortured the single guys.
"Can you please eat properly and stop torturing me, a single guy?" Xu Jingchen finally couldn't help it and complained with a resentful face.
"If you have the ability, show us," Leng Shaoting retorted, hitting the nail on the head.
Xu Jingchen choked and was suddenly speechless. He could only lower his head to eat.
If he could show off, would he not show off? In fact, Xu Jingchen was not unfamiliar with outstanding girls. There were still several good girls among his cousins and their girlfriends who were relatively good in terms of conditions and personality.
For example, Qiu Yuxin, whether it is family background, appearance, education, cultivation, or occupation, is good, and she is a perfect match for Xu Jingchen in every aspect. Xu Qinying also introduced them to each other. However, no matter how good and perfect the two are, if they don't have a heartbeat for each other, there is nothing that can be done.
After dinner, Leng Shaoting asked Xu Jingchen to leave the car to him and let him go back. Xu Jingchen was so angry that he couldn't breathe and secretly cursed Leng Shaoting for putting women before friendship.
It’s not that Xu Jingchen was ignorant and had to disturb the couple’s date, but Leng Shaoting’s impolite and ungrateful attitude made him very unhappy.
But so what? You have to do it obediently.
Before leaving, Xu Jingchen asked, "Boss, do you want to go out and play tonight? Call the fourth and seventh brothers, they are still in Beijing."
"We'll talk about it then," Leng Shaoting responded. He couldn't be sure now.
"Okay!" Xu Jingchen responded helplessly, and left with Xu Qinying.
Xu Jingchen went back in Xu Qinying's car, but it was Xu Jingchen who was driving because Xu Jingchen looked down upon Xu Qinying's driving skills.
As soon as they left, Xu Qinying couldn't wait to ask, "Brother, that Gu Ning looks so young, he should still be a student!"
"Yes! Senior year." Xu Jingchen replied.
"ah!"
A third year of high school, isn't that around 17 or 18 years old? So is it 17 or 18? If it's 17, then it's not an adult! Although they all know that Gu Ning is not very old, why do they all think that he is a college student, so he must be around 20 years old!
"Where is Gu Ning from? What does her family do? And how did she get together with Brother Shao Ting?" Xu Qinying continued to ask like a curious baby.
"Why are you asking so many questions?" Although Xu Jingchen was also a gossipy person, he didn't like to reveal other people's private affairs, otherwise the unclear things between his boss and Gu Ning would have spread throughout the Wolf Clan long ago.
"Isn't it just curiosity? You know very well that Brother Shao Ting has never been close to that girl, and he regards women as unapproachable creatures. Now he suddenly appears with his girlfriend. How can I not be curious?" Xu Qinying said.
"Actually, I don't know either. If you want to know, just ask him yourself!" Xu Jingchen shrugged. He really didn't know. He only had a vague idea, but he didn't want to talk about this vague idea.
"Then forget it!" Xu Qinying shrank back in fear when she heard that. She didn't dare to ask! If she dared to ask, she would have asked just now. Why did she have to wait until now to ask Xu Jingchen? "I remind you that no matter what Gu Ning is like, it's best not to have any bad thoughts about her, otherwise..." Xu Jingchen reminded, or warned.
Although Xu Qinying was not a bad-hearted person, she still had the temper of a spoiled young lady. She would always show her dislike directly, so he was afraid that Xu Qinying and Gu Ning would not get along and have conflicts, causing unnecessary trouble, so he still felt it necessary to warn her.
"I wouldn't!" Xu Qinying retorted unconvinced. Even if she and Gu Ning really didn't get along, she wouldn't conflict with Gu Ning because of Leng Shaoting.
Of course, the premise is that Gu Ning doesn't provoke her first.
Although she had a good impression of Gu Ning so far, she didn't know her well, so she couldn't be sure that she would get along with her.
Here, because Situ Ye had not arrived yet, Gu Ning and Leng Shaoting changed to a tea room and drank tea while waiting for him.
During this period, Leng Shaoting received a call from the old man of the Leng family. Leng Shaoting did not avoid Gu Ning and answered the call directly.
"Grandpa," Leng Shaoting shouted. Although his voice was still as cold and hard as usual, it contained emotion.
Yes, he is the only person who makes Leng Shaoting feel the love of family, and he is also the only person that the Leng family cares about. It’s just because of his temperament that he can’t be as gentle as ordinary people.
As soon as Leng Shaoting finished speaking, a full-throated roar came from the other side: "You still know that I am your grandfather! You little bastard, you didn't tell me about such a big thing. If no one told me, would you not tell me?"
Because the sound over there was too loud, even though Gu Ning had average hearing, he could still hear it.
Although Mr. Leng roared angrily, he was full of worry.
Although Leng Shaoting's job is inherently dangerous and most of the tasks he performs are highly dangerous missions, with his life in danger at any time, Old Man Leng should be used to it.
However, getting used to it doesn't mean that he can stop worrying and caring. Normally, he was very worried about Leng Shaoting, fearing that something might happen to him.
It would be fine if he didn't know, but now that he knew, he naturally had to ask.
"It's okay," Leng Shaoting said.
"If you are fine, why don't you go home?" Mr. Leng questioned. He knew that no one on the plane was in danger of death, but there were many injured. Leng Shaoting had been in Beijing for two or three hours, but he didn't go home. This made Mr. Leng think too much.
"I have something to do outside and will be back in the evening." Leng Shaoting said.
Old Master Leng also knew that Leng Shaoting was a man of measure, so although he was worried, he didn't want to force him too much, lest it backfire. He just reminded him to go home at night and then hung up.
