Chapter 13 Family Dinner
Fortunately, Nian Sui'an's surprise didn't last too long, and Gu Zhijing's WeChat message came right after.
Gu Zhijing: [My dad said he would treat me to a midnight snack, and asked me to wait for you at the school gate after class to pick me up.]
Nian Sui'an was relieved when she saw this message. She was scared to death, thinking that Gu Junxing was going to fall in love with her!
Nian Sui'an: [He also told me, I guess he just had a sudden impulse to have a family gathering.]
Gu Zhijing: [Then are you going?]
Nian Sui'an: [Why not? Let's go to a rich man. Let's eat him a lot!]
Gu Zhijing: [Okay! Then I'll eat less for dinner and save my stomach for a midnight snack. ]
Nian Sui An: [Nod.jpg]
"Mrs. Zhang, cook less for dinner today. Your boss said he wants to treat me and Gu Zhijing to a midnight snack. I will eat less for dinner." Nian Sui An told Mrs. Zhang. "
Okay, I got it!" Mrs. Zhang looked very happy. "You are a family of three now. You should go out to eat together often and cultivate your relationship." Mrs. Zhang thought that the boss was at work and the young master was at school. The family was quiet every day. The young master and his wife had a good relationship, but the wife and the boss didn't seem to get along well. If they could really get along, the family would be harmonious.
Nian Sui An didn't want to cultivate a relationship with Gu Junxing. The generation gap was too big to cultivate it. She would just be a family with Gu Zhijing.
At dinner, Nian Sui'an drank a bowl of soup. By nine o'clock, he was so hungry that his eyes turned green. Fortunately, Gu Junxing's car arrived home on time at nine o'clock.
Today, Gu Junxing drove the car himself. Nian Sui'an opened the back door and sat in the back seat.
"Come to the front, do you think I'm the driver by sitting in the back?" Gu Junxing frowned.
Nian Sui'an didn't want to be the co-pilot, so he said, "If you don't want to be the driver, you can sit in the back and I'll drive. I'm the driver, okay?"
Gu Junxing seemed to be too lazy to bother, so he stepped on the accelerator and drove away.
The two of them didn't talk along the way. Maybe Gu Junxing was in a bad mood. The car came quickly, and when they arrived at Gu Zhijing's school, they hadn't finished their classes yet.
Nian Suian took out her phone and sent a WeChat message to Gu Zhijing. After that, she didn't want to sit in the car anymore. It was too awkward to stay in a small space with Gu Junxing, so she simply got off the car and stood by the school gate waiting.
"Why are you getting off too?" Nian Suian didn't expect Gu Junxing to get off the car and stand next to her.
"I came down to get some fresh air." In fact, Gu Junxing felt that other parents who picked up their children did not have their mothers standing outside waiting, but their fathers sitting in the car. They now had to act as a harmonious and happy family of three, so they had to adapt in advance.
There were other parents who came to pick up their children, and they knew Gu Junxing. When they saw the two of them standing together, they also thought that the two seemed to have a good relationship and came together to pick up their children from school.
Gu Zhijing looked forward to the end of class when he saw Nian Sui'an's WeChat. He kept checking his phone in the last few minutes, and even his deskmate Qu Zizhou noticed it.
"What are you doing? Is there anything going on this evening?"
"Yes, my dad and my little sister are here to pick me up after school." Gu Zhijing said this in a short sentence with pride.
"It seems that your reconstituted family is quite harmonious!" Qu Zizhou whispered.
"That's right, we get along very well, better than biological children, my little sister is very nice."
"Yo, you are so beautiful."
"I won't talk to you anymore, the class is over."
The bell
rang, and Gu Zhijing grabbed his schoolbag and rushed out, not even paying attention to the teacher who was still sitting on the podium.
"Little sister! What are we going to eat tonight?" Before Gu Zhijing ran up to her, she greeted Nian Sui'an and completely ignored Gu Junxing next to her.
It was Nian Sui'an who said, "Ask your dad, he has booked the place." Gu Zhijing then looked at his dad and called out, "Dad." His tone still revealed his reluctance.
Gu Junxing gritted his teeth and silently said: You can't scold children in public. He
forced a smile and said: "Get in the car, let's have Cantonese food tonight, let's eat light at night."
When getting in the car, Nian Sui'an still sat in the back seat, and Gu Zhijing also sat in the back seat with Nian Sui'an, without any intention of taking care of his father.
Gu Junxing endured it once, and he endured it a second and third time. He was too lazy to say anything, so he turned the navigation to the Cantonese restaurant that the secretary had ordered, and drove off.
The crowd of onlookers who didn't know the truth: The woman that Mr. Gu married later has a good relationship with his son, and the family gets along well.
Nian Sui'an was hungry all night, and Gu Zhijing was almost the same. As soon as the dishes were served and the door of the private room was closed, the two began to devour them. Occasionally, when they ate something particularly delicious, they would share it with each other.
Gu Junxing wanted to say something, but now he had to hold it in. Gan Jian
also picked up his chopsticks and started eating, but his eating style was different from those two. He ate in a particularly elegant way.
After more than ten minutes, the two of them slowed down their chopsticks. Gu Junxing tried to hold back but still couldn't.
"Don't you have meals at home? You have to chew your meals slowly. Eating too fast can cause indigestion."
It must be said that the food in this restaurant is really good. Neither Nian Sui'an nor Gu Zhijing talked to Gu Junxing.
"This chicken feet is delicious, would you like another serving?"
"Yes, yes, yes, I also want a serving of this shrimp dumpling."
"Okay, then give me one serving of this barbecued pork as well."
The two completely ignored Gu Junxing, pressed the bell to call the waiter to come in and order more dishes.
"After we finish eating, we will go out and pack some and bring them back to housekeeper Su and Zhang Ma." Niansheng'an told Gu Zhijing that when eating delicious food, we have to think about everyone.
Gu Zhijing nodded: "Okay, you are still thoughtful."
After the two of them had eaten and drunk enough, Gu Zhijing spoke: "Dad, are you just treating us two to dinner today?"
"I have something to tell you." Gu Junxing said with a dark face.
Gu Zhijing and Nian Sui'an thought at the same time: Well, there is really no such thing as a free midnight snack.
"What's the matter?" Nian Sui'an asked.
"Next Friday, there will be an entrepreneur dinner. You two, come with me." Gu Junxing said, thinking that he had to feed them well before going, otherwise if they ate like today, he would never be able to hold his head up again in Jinjiang City.
"Didn't you always go alone before? I wanted to join in the fun, but you wouldn't let me go." Nian Sui'an didn't know the situation, but Gu Zhijing did. He had heard his classmates say that they went to some banquet with their parents. He thought it was fun and wanted his father to take him, but his father didn't want to.
"You were still young before, so they didn't let you go."
"Then what are we going to do?" Nian Sui'an didn't want to participate in occasions that required a lot of socializing.
"You don't need to do anything, just show up. After that, you two can move freely in the venue." After thinking about it, Gu Junxing added, "There are a lot of delicious food."
Nian Sui'an and Gu Zhijing looked at each other for a moment before agreeing together.
"Okay, I'll have a stylist come to your house in two days to pick clothes for you two."
Having achieved his goal, Gu Junxing stood up and prepared to go home. Nian Sui'an and Gu Zhijing also ordered some shop signs to take home. Of course, Gu Junxing still paid.
