At this moment, Gu Huaixi's cell phone suddenly rang. He took out his cell phone, took a look at it, and said to Xu Jing'an and Guan Ningning, "It's a call from the company. You go shopping first, and I'll answer the call."

After saying that, he turned around and walked in the other direction. After walking farther, he pressed the answer button.

The assistant on the other end of the phone said: "Mr. Gu, you asked me to call you at this time. Do you have any instructions?"

"It's nothing, just go about your business." Gu Huaixi had already walked away, making sure that he couldn't be seen from Guan Ningning's direction, and hung up the phone after saying that.

On the other end of the phone, the assistant was confused and took a few inexplicable seconds before putting away the phone.

Xu Jing'an knew that Gu Huaixi was creating opportunities for him to be alone with Guan Ningning, but he was actually a little afraid of being alone with her.

Although she was distant when others were around, at least she wasn't full of thorns.

When she is alone, she is guarded and thorny, and she doesn't know what hurtful words she will say or what hurtful things she will do.

Xu Jing'an also found out later that Guan Ningning had a temper.

Because of this, I am a little afraid of her.

Gu Huaixi left, Xu Jingan and Guan Ningning stood there, and the atmosphere suddenly became weird.

No one spoke first, and they didn't know what to say.

One was afraid that he was being sentimental and could not control himself from saying hurtful words, and the other was afraid that her heart would be pricked until it was bloody again.

Xu Jing'an knew that their road ahead was unknown, and he also knew not to act too hastily, because she was Guan Ningning. She was not as gentle/soft and easy to handle as she had shown before. She was independent and thorny.

Guan Ningning stood there and did not take the initiative to speak.

He was not her boss, nor was he her client, so she didn't want to bother with it.

Xu Jing'an didn't say anything. Even if they were standing together like this, looking at the same beach and sea, he felt it was wonderful.

He watched Guan Ningning gradually grow up from a novice run by the CEO. She was independent, tough, smart, and soft. Every time he thought about it, every trait amazed him and fascinated him.

We have never had such a quiet and peaceful relationship before, and now I feel regretful and self-blame every time I think about it.

So he suffered the consequences and lost her.

The sun is very good today and is setting in the west. The big and red sunset slowly approaches the sea level and casts thousands of golden rays on the sea. It is very spectacular and magnificent.

Gu Huaixi, who went to answer the call at work, has not come back yet. Neither of them mentioned him. They just stood together quietly, watching the sun set into the sea. They seemed to enjoy it and cherish the quiet time together.

This was the first time for them to enjoy the scenery together, which was a novel experience.

Guan Ningning thought to herself, it would be nice to be able to live together peacefully like this in the future. Today's novel experience can be regarded as a happy ending to the past.

The sun fell into the sea and everything became calm.

Xu Jing'an said, "You seem to be in good condition now."

"Well, I like my current job and life very much."

Xu Jing'an thought of the cup of milk tea on her table. He saw the engineer named Wei coming to deliver milk tea. Since each person had a cup, he didn't think much about it.

Looking back, he couldn't help but wonder why the male colleagues who worked with Guan Ningning, even the engineering men who were mostly dinosaurs, were somewhat good-looking, which made him a little dissatisfied.

"It's pretty good." Even though Xu Jing'an felt bitter in his heart, he could only say this, "What are you going to take us to eat tonight, Korean food?"

Guan Ningning said before that there are several good Korean restaurants in Hong Kong City that are worth trying.

"Okay, if you don't mind."

Guan Ningning knew that young men like them had never tasted anything high-end. The stores she mentioned were ordinary ones with a smoky atmosphere. In fact, they were not suitable for entertaining customers of their status. They were more suitable for gatherings among friends. She and Xu Jing'an and Gu Huaixi were not friends. At most, they could be said to be friends of friends.

"I don't mind, it's up to you." Xu Jing'an said.

He wanted to get to know her, and the restaurant she recommended must be one she had eaten at and found it delicious, rather than simply looking at online rankings and recommendations.

Guan Ningning chuckled lightly, "Mr. Gu is our customer. We should wait until he comes back to see what he thinks before deciding what to eat."

"Indeed." Xu Jing'an shrugged, not intending to overstep his authority, although the result would be the same even if Gu Huaixi came back.

Gu Huaixi wanted to run away and just keep them together, but based on her superficial understanding of Guan Ningning, if he, Party A's father, left, Guan Ningning might refuse to entertain Xu Jing'an because he was not a client of the company. .

Therefore, he can't run away yet.

These two resentful couples cannot leave him!

Gu Huaixi gave them enough time before Shi Shiran went back. From a distance, he saw that they were still standing where he left before, without moving.

Xu Jing'an dialed his number and asked him to come back and prepare to eat.

In addition to the ringtone in the handset of his mobile phone, there was also a colorful ringtone. He followed the sound and saw Gu Huaixi.

Xu Jing'an hung up the phone and put away his phone.

When Gu Huaixi approached, Guan Ningning said: "Mr. Gu, do you have any dietary preferences or taboos?"

"No, I'm not picky about food. Didn't you say there are some good Korean restaurants here, go and eat Korean food?"

"Okay, no problem. I'll call a taxi and we'll take a taxi there."

"Okay." Two grown men, Xu Jing'an and Gu Huaixi, stood aside, waiting for her to contact a taxi.

Guan Ningning called a taxi online and took a taxi to a barbecue restaurant.

The store is not big, with only four tables downstairs and additional seats upstairs.

It was getting late, the downstairs was already full, and the smell of barbecue filled the air.

There was still space upstairs, and Guan Ningning took them upstairs with familiarity, which showed that she came often.

After taking their seats, Xu Jing'an and Gu Huaixi both asked Guan Ningning to order dishes and let her recommend them.

Guan Ningning did not shirk, and based on word-of-mouth and recommendations, she ordered three grilled steaks, two grilled pork belly, grilled large intestine, grilled squid, miso soup, and one cold noodles.

After ordering, she said: "I'm afraid you won't be used to the miso soup and cold noodles, so I only ordered one portion. You can try it first. If you like it, you can add more. If you don't like it, I will take care of it and you can order something else." of."

"Okay." Gu Huaixi said with a smile, "Have a drink? How can you eat barbecue without drinking?"

"Okay." Guan Ningning asked for another bottle of wine.

The barbecue came quickly. Guan Ningning reached for the tongs and consciously took on the task of barbecue.

For example, the grilled large intestine has been grilled and can be eaten directly.

After the steak was cooked, Guan Ningning put a piece of garlic slices on top of the beef and ate it together.

"Does it taste better this way?"

Gu Huaixi looked at her several times and found that she was very serious about eating, not pretentious, and unlike some women who ate slowly and sparingly and were concerned about their figure.
