When Li Bin arrived, both Gu Wei and Xu Kailin wanted to extend their hospitality.
Everyone here is well-off, so it doesn't matter who invites first or last.
The three of them later went to a famous restaurant in the provincial capital for dinner.
Gu Wei ordered six dishes, a soup, and two bottles of baijiu (Chinese liquor).
While waiting for their food to be served, they chatted, and the topic inevitably turned to Li Bin's relationship.
Xu Kailin is now the only single person present, which makes him feel a little melancholy.
"Binzi, you found a partner pretty quickly. I thought you'd stay single like me."
Gu Wei and Li Bin exchanged a glance, communicating with each other through their eyes.
They all knew what happened with Xu Kailin's previous relationship and how it ended.
"Old Xu, I didn't expect to find a suitable partner so quickly. Maybe you'll meet someone you like someday."
Xu Kailin shook his head with a complicated expression. "It's tough. You all know I've been hurt by women before. So I'll do anything for you, but the thought of blind dates and dating gives me a headache."
They were naturally aware of this.
While rinsing the teacups and cutlery, Gu Wei said, "It's just that our fate hasn't arrived yet. If it has, we'll naturally fall in love and be together. There are so many good girls out there; surely not every one of them will be bad?"
This can be considered as advice based on his experience.
When Zhou Wenyi confessed her feelings to him on the day the private restaurant opened, he was surprised and at a loss, but he was also considering some very practical issues.
For example, he and Zhou Wenbo are colleagues and friends. What if he agrees to date her and then breaks up with her?
However, as time went on, Gu Wei's ideas also changed.
Moreover, when people are destined to be together, once the red thread of fate is tied, many things will naturally fall into place.
Li Bin wholeheartedly agreed, saying, "Brother Gu is right. I went on a blind date once, and then I got snatched away, right? After that, my mom kept urging me to go on blind dates, and I kept turning down other people. But then, I don't know what happened, I started to want to find a partner myself, and that's how this happened."
After the two of them comforted him, Xu Kailin felt much better, and his closed heart began to crack slightly.
After all the dishes were served, the three of them toasted each other and drank merrily.
Gu Wei's alcohol tolerance wasn't as high as theirs, so he stopped drinking when he had drunk enough.
Afterwards, Gu Wei drove them to Xu Kailin's shop.
However, to their surprise, before they even reached their destination, just as they turned onto that street, they saw a large group of people standing outside the shop, seemingly engaged in a dispute.
Gu Wei and Xu Kailin, who was sitting in the passenger seat, looked at each other in bewilderment.
Li Bin, sitting in the back seat, also looked anxious and serious.
All three of them had a bad feeling...
