After the divorce, the boss doted on me
Chapter 280: Trying to eat
The restaurant of my friend's house is a bit far away, and it took about four or ten minutes to drive there.
In summer, the days become longer, and after five o'clock, the sunset glow in the sky is still colorful, like knocking over a girl's orange eyeshadow palette.
The restaurant had just opened and it was meal time. Looking from a distance, the lobby on the first floor was full of people and the traffic was astonishingly large.
Ji Lingchuan parked the car in the open-air parking space opposite Ma Gu, frowned when he saw this, took out his mobile phone and sent a WeChat message to his friend.
He greeted his friend the day before yesterday, saying that he would bring someone over to join in the show, and asked him to make arrangements in advance, why are there so many people in the lobby.
Less than three seconds after the message was sent, a friend called.
Ji Lingchuan picked it up, and there was a noisy background sound over there, accompanied by a man's loud voice: "Old classmate, didn't you say to bring a friend over to join us at night? Why haven't you come yet?"
Ji Lingchuan lowered his voice and said, "What's going on? I saw a lot of people in the lobby on the first floor."
"You've arrived." The man stood at the door and looked around, "Where are you, why didn't I see you?"
Gu Mian quietly listened to Ji Lingchuan's phone call, then turned to look out the car window.A tall man came out from the entrance of the restaurant, holding his mobile phone to his ear, stretching his neck to look left and right, as if he was looking for someone, he should be Ji Lingchuan's friend.
Ji Lingchuan pressed his eyebrows, and said in a helpless tone, "Didn't I tell you to take care of it?"
The man on the phone said cheerfully, "I've made an order. In order to welcome the arrival of the big stars, I specially held a promotional activity today. The number of customers has doubled. How about it, there is a card."
Ji Lingchuan: "..."
The man completely misunderstood what he meant.
He didn't expect things to develop like this, and he didn't even know what to do next.
Over there, my friend recalled his tone just now, and reacted belatedly, he seemed to have misunderstood something: "You said flattery, didn't you come here to promote my restaurant and help make it famous?"
Ji Lingchuan laughed angrily.
The two spoke a few more words, and the friend finally realized his mistake.
The people from Ji Lingchuan had already arrived, and they brought someone with them. It was impossible for him to return Gu Yuan. They discussed it and decided to follow Ji Lingchuan's original plan. striking.
After hanging up the phone, Ji Lingchuan unbuckled his seat belt and turned to look at the back seat.
Gu Mian listened to the conversation between him and his friend just now, and before he could speak, she said, "I'll go in first, and you'll come back later?"
Ji Lingchuan didn't expect that she heard it, so he hummed, and explained worriedly: "Did you see the restaurant opposite Ma Gu? The person in the black T-shirt at the door is my friend, the owner of the restaurant. You go first, He'll take you to the box, and I'll be right there."
He pursed his lips, feeling a little depressed, and said, "Sorry..."
Gu Mian shook her head, she understood what he meant, he invited her to dinner, he was the host, and she was the guest, he felt that such hiding was neglecting the guests.
He thought too much, and she didn't feel neglected, but rather excited.
They seem to be fighting guerrilla warfare. Those Gu people outside are their enemies. If they want to reach their destination, they must disguise themselves under the eyes of the enemy and pass through many obstacles.
Just imagining it makes Gu Mian's blood boil.
Ji Lingchuan didn't know what the little girl was thinking. In fact, he really felt that going out to eat with him had wronged her, and he had to wait for him to finish work and hide around.
Gu Mian waved at him, opened the car door and got out of the car quickly, looking at him firmly, with an air of death, as if she was not going to the restaurant, but the enemy's bunker: "Be careful, don't be found Already!"
To prevent being seen, she closed the car door immediately after speaking.
Ji Lingchuan was stunned for a moment, and then he let out a sigh of relief as he watched the slender figure pass through Ma Gu and walk to the door of the restaurant.
Gu Mian stood in front of the man in the black T-shirt, and took the initiative to say hello: "Hi, I'm Ji Lingchuan's friend, Gu Mian." She spoke in a very low voice, for fear of being overheard by those who had been Gu.
Wang Shaolin waited at the door after calling Ji Lingchuan. Ji Lingchuan told him many times to bring his friend in first.
He looked at the white and tender girl in front of him who was only as tall as his chin, opened his mouth in surprise, and after a while, he came back to his senses: "Hello, hello."
what's the situation?
He thought that the friend Ji Lingchuan brought over was also a big star, but it turned out to be a little girl.
After all, Wang Shaolin was used to seeing big scenes, he calmed down after a moment of daze, and made a gesture of invitation with a smile: "Gu Mian, please come in quickly, I will take you to the box upstairs."
Gu Mian bowed her body and said softly, "It's troublesome."
Wang Shaolin raised his eyebrows.
The little girl is quite polite.
The hall is spacious and bright, with radiant marble floors, brilliant crystal chandeliers, and an unmanned grand piano in the center.The overall decoration style is western style, very low-key and luxurious.
At this moment, more than a dozen round tables in the hall were full of people. Everyone was chatting while eating, and the atmosphere was lively.
Gu Mian followed the boss up to the second floor, separated from the noise, and the surroundings became quiet.
Wang Shaolin led her to a small box at the end, opened the door to let her in, and stood outside himself: "There is freshly brewed tea in the teapot on the table, you drink it first, I'll go down to see Ji Lingchuan."
Gu Mian: "Go get busy, I can do it myself."
Wang Shaolin helped her close the door, heaved a long sigh of relief, turned around and went downstairs to pick up another one.
After 10 minutes, he successfully sent Ji Lingchuan to the second floor, and then he found a chance to ask: "Big star, what's the situation with you? Little girlfriend? Is the girl too young, is she an adult?"
He scanned Ji Lingchuan's body back and forth, wondering if the big dye vat in the entertainment industry had dyed him?
Ji Lingchuan choked, why did he have the same virtue as Zhao Cheng.
"Don't talk nonsense, she is my friend."
"Okay, you go in." Wang Shaolin said, "Don't keep people waiting."
He originally wanted to catch up with an old classmate he hadn't seen for many years, but today's timing is obviously not suitable, so let's find another opportunity to get together again.
Ji Lingchuan pushed open the door, and what greeted his eyes was the girl's demure profile.She was holding a small dark brown teacup in her hand, and she held the teacup with her thumb and index finger, held the teacup with her thumb and forefinger, supported the bottom with her middle finger, and raised her little finger slightly.
It is a pleasing picture.
Gu Mian took a sip of tea, heard the sound of the door opening, and turned to look sideways.
Ji Lingchuan closed the door casually, took off the peaked cap on top of his head, the brim of the hat made his black hair a little messy, he raised his hand to grab it, and stroked it back, revealing his smooth forehead.
Gu Mian immediately put down the teacup, and asked nervously, "You haven't been discovered, have you?"
Ji Lingchuan thought for a while and said, "Probably not."
"Congratulations on our successful reunion!" Gu Mian heaved a sigh of relief, and raised a hand with the palm facing him.
Ji Lingchuan raised the corners of his lips, and raised his hand to hit her palm.
The decoration of the restaurant adopts European style, but the dishes are authentic Beijing dishes.
Wang Shaolin put in a lot of effort to open the restaurant, and specially recruited a few chefs who are good at cooking Beijing cuisine, one of whom was an imperial chef in the palace.
On the solid wood round table, there are seven or eight dishes with meat and vegetables such as crystal elbow, shredded pork with Beijing sauce, Sixi meatballs, stir-fried tenderloin, imperial concubine chicken, and three fresh stuffed tofu.
There is a big star here, and the dishes are served by the boss himself.
Before leaving the box, Wang Shaolin said with a smile: "These are the signature dishes that customers have ordered a lot these days. Let me know what else you want to eat, and I will ask the chef to make it again."
Gu Mian looked at the man opposite, a little surprised: "Is it just the two of us?"
Ji Lingchuan took the bowls and chopsticks in front of her, washed them with boiling water, and said softly, "Who else do you want?"
That's not what she meant. What she meant was that two people couldn't finish eating so many dishes.
He was so kind.
The last time she invited him to breakfast, it was just a few steamed buns and a bowl of tofu nao, the total didn't exceed ten yuan.
Ji Lingchuan looked at her, as if he knew what she was thinking: "We came today with a mission."
Gu Mian didn't understand: "What task?"
Ji Lingchuan showed a gentle smile: "Didn't you hear what the boss said? These are the signature dishes of the restaurant. Of course, our task is to try them and see where there is room for improvement. Therefore, we must try every dish. "
Convinced by his reason, Gu Mian picked up a piece of tenderloin with her chopsticks and put it into her mouth.
The tenderloin is deep-fried first, and then fried in a pan. The outside is covered with a layer of viscous gravy, which has a burnt aroma of deep-frying, but the meat inside is very tender and has a rich taste.
Ji Lingchuan didn't move his chopsticks. Seeing her chewing slowly, he asked, "How does it taste?"
It has been less than half a month since the restaurant opened, and his friends have been inviting him over, but he can't spare the time. Today is also his first time here, and he has never eaten the food here, so I don't know if it suits her taste.
"Hmm." Gu Mian had a piece of chicken stuffed in his mouth, and he couldn't speak until he swallowed the food in his mouth before making a pertinent comment, "The meat dishes are delicious but not greasy, and the vegetarian dishes are delicious but not monotonous. Eight points."
Ji Lingchuan was dumbfounded, and lamented that Xueba is worthy of being a Xueba.
He just didn't want to make her feel burdened, so he found a reason and said that he came to try the food, and she really listened to it, tried every dish seriously, and summed up her impressions after eating it.
Gu Mian saw that he looked at her in a strange way: "Am I not right?"
"No." Ji Lingchuan smiled, "You are quite right."
There was still one soup left that she hadn't tasted yet, so Gu Mian picked up the bowl and filled it with half a bowl for herself, took a sip from the spoon, and saw that he was still looking at her: "Aren't you going to eat?"
Ji Lingchuan looked around the several dishes on the table, as if thinking about where to start.
As a person who has tasted all the delicacies, Gu Mian naturally picked up the serving chopsticks and picked up a piece of imperial concubine chicken for him: "I think this is the best, try it."
Ji Lingchuan was kind, picked up the chicken nuggets and put them in his mouth. The meat was very tender, with rich soup overflowing in his mouth, not greasy at all, which verified her evaluation just now.
He raised his eyebrows: "I will suggest to my friend later that I should give the chef a little more salary."
Gu Mian nodded in agreement, then suddenly changed the topic and said, "I'm a little curious, why do you want to be a star?"
This question was not asked out of the blue, but related to something that bothered her recently.
Not long after, the results of the college entrance examination will come out, and she still hasn't decided which university to apply to, and she doesn't know what major to choose.She has no plans for her future, she just feels that her future is shrouded in smoke and she is at a loss.
In summer, the days become longer, and after five o'clock, the sunset glow in the sky is still colorful, like knocking over a girl's orange eyeshadow palette.
The restaurant had just opened and it was meal time. Looking from a distance, the lobby on the first floor was full of people and the traffic was astonishingly large.
