When Gu Mingjing finished cooking the noodles, he found that his father was still standing in the same place without moving.
There was a trace of worry in his eyes, but he pretended not to notice anything. "Dad, the noodles are ready. Come and eat."
Gu Zhan was awakened from his memories, came back to his senses, and nodded belatedly, "Okay, I'm coming."
After saying that, she gently patted the snowflakes that fell on her body, her fingers naturally brushed across her cheeks, waving away the snow on her hat, and some crystals stuck to her fingertips.
Then he strode towards the restaurant.
With a straight back and capable style, it seemed as if everything that just happened was just an illusion.
In fact, his iron-clad and tender nature was just a little bit of vulnerable time he gave himself.
"Dad, you eat first. If it's not enough, there's more in the pot." Gu Mingjing brought a big bowl of chicken noodle soup to Gu Zhan, with two eggs in it.
"Are you hungry? Sit down and eat together?" Gu Zhan invited.
"No, you eat it. I'm not hungry yet." Gu Mingjing shook his head and refused.
I looked at the time and it was already past one in the morning.
"Then go and rest. Don't worry about the rest. Get some rest. Go to Zhao's house tomorrow with a fresh mind. Don't yawn all the time and let Old Zhao find fault with you. Don't mess up something that's already been decided."
Gu Zhan first drank a mouthful of soup to warm his frozen body, and then began to eat noodles in big mouthfuls.
"Okay, I've warmed the noodles in the pot. You can tell Brother Li when he comes back. The room has been cleaned up in advance, and the quilts and other things have been made out. After you finish eating and clean up, you can go to bed early." Gu Mingjing did not refuse and nodded in agreement.
Tomorrow is a big day, so I really need to have a good rest. I also have to pick up Shushu in advance.
If his father had not just arrived in Beijing, he would have gone to bed long ago.
I can’t stay up late anymore. What if I get dark circles under my eyes like Shushu said?
"Go ahead, go ahead. We don't need you to worry about us. Just take care of your own business." Gu Zhan waved his hand and drove the man away.
This kid is becoming more and more nagging. He is not a child anymore, why should I worry so much?
Gu Mingjing hadn't noticed that since being with Jianshu, he had become more and more of a worrier. He wanted to take care of everything, no matter how big or small, and he was completely different from before.
He didn't say anything more at this moment. After saying take care, he left the restaurant and went back to his room to rest.
-
Have a good night's sleep.
Although he went to bed late last night, Gu Mingjing still opened his eyes on time at six in the morning with a clear mind.
The rest time was not long, but the high-quality sleep helped him eliminate his fatigue and made him feel refreshed.
After getting up, he did some boxing and then went into the kitchen.
An old man came back home, so I had to prepare breakfast before leaving.
There wasn't much to eat at home, so I cooked some corn grits porridge, cut a few salted duck eggs I brought with me, and made some scrambled eggs with pickled vegetables and pickled radish shreds.
While cooking, Gu Zhan and Li Gang also got up one after another.
"Brother Li, are you up? Where's my dad?" Gu Mingjing greeted Li Gang who walked into the kitchen.
"The leader has also gotten up and is exercising. I came over to see if there is anything I can help with." Li Gang, who had originally come over to prepare breakfast, found that there was no place for his skills, so he had to step back and help.
Gu Mingjing was not polite. "Okay, take the prepared dishes out and call my dad to come and eat. There's only one dish left, and dinner will be served soon."
"Okay."
Li Gang walked into the restaurant with a plate of food in one hand, and left after putting the food on the table.
Gu Mingjing also increased the speed of cooking.
When Gu Zhan and the other two walked into the restaurant, he just happened to come out with porridge.
"I'm here, just in time for dinner." He nodded.
"It's corn grits porridge. I haven't eaten it for a long time. I'm so craving it." Gu Zhan looked at the corn grits porridge in the bowl and was a little surprised.
"Yeah, that's the taste! You're really good at cooking. It's a pity that you didn't join the kitchen team." He picked up the bowl and took a big sip, praising him while eating.
But it is better not to say this praise.
Gu Mingjing was eating porridge without raising his head, too lazy to pay attention to him.
After yesterday, Li Gang had seen how the father and son got along with each other. At this time, he just treated himself as a transparent person, eating silently and not getting involved in anything.
Listen less, watch less and talk less about the leader’s family affairs.
"I have something else to do, so I'll leave first. You guys take your time eating." Gu Mingjing quickly finished his breakfast and filled his stomach.
After washing my own dishes, I prepared to leave.
"Wait." Gu Zhan called him.
"Something?" he asked inquiringly.
Gu Zhan put down his chopsticks and said, "Come with me." Then he walked out. Gu Mingjing followed him in confusion.
Li Gang also put down his chopsticks and followed. In his job scope, he was always close to her.
Gu Zhan took the two of them to the room, took out the luggage they brought back, and took out a bag from it.
"Here, take this with you." He stuffed the things into Gu Mingjing's arms.
"What is this? It feels like wine?" Gu Mingjing picked it up and weighed it.
"Yes, it's wine, and some other things. Take them all with you. You can't go to a visit empty-handed."
"No need, I've already prepared everything. Cigarettes, alcohol, cakes, and gifts for Uncle Zhao and the others." Gu Mingjing didn't expect that his father would even prepare gifts for him. Is he such an ignorant person?
Gu Mingjing still attaches great importance to the day of meeting his parents. He has been looking for various gifts and preparing them very carefully.
"Just take it if I tell you to. Can what you prepare be the same as what I prepare? Do I know your Uncle Zhao and the others better than you?" Seeing that he didn't understand, Gu Zhan said it very bluntly.
Gu Mingjing immediately understood.
For people like them, gifts don't need to be expensive; the most important thing is that people like them. And as for what the Zhao couple likes, her father must know better.
"Okay, I'll take all these things. Do I still need to take the things I bought before?" Gu Mingjing asked.
Indeed, for matters like this, we should consult the older generation, after all, they have more experience.
However, his father was very busy a few days ago, so he didn't disturb him, thinking that he still remembered this matter.
