Republic of China Designer [Transmigration Book]

"Definitely!" Xia Jinting nodded solemnly.

Aside from that broken book, Gu Que is perfect in every aspect, completely worthy of full marks.

"Is there any reward for getting full marks?" Gu Que asked with a smile.

"Reward? What do you want?" Xia Jinting knew that he had misunderstood Gu Queduo before, and he also felt a little guilty for blaspheming male gods, so he wanted to make up for it.

"I heard that there is an elegant restaurant on the Qinhe River, and the food and drinks are very good. I want to invite you to go with me." Gu Que said.

The Qinhe River is the mother river of Haicheng. In ancient times, it was mainly used for navigation and grain transportation. The merchants and pedestrians who came and went promoted the development of entertainment on both sides of the Qinhe River.

Most of the time-honored restaurants, opera troupes, and brothels in Haicheng were built here, and the business has continued to this day.Every night, people come and go on both sides of the Qinhe River, which is very lively.

The place where Gu Que invited Xia Jinting to go was the Wupeng restaurant on the Qin River. As the name suggests, the restaurant was ingeniously opened on the Wupeng boat.

In the evening, the sky gradually darkened, and red lanterns were hung on both sides of the Qinhe River, adding a bit of softness to the twilight.

On the clear water, the Upon boat is rowing slowly. Inside the cabin, the store has already prepared delicious food and wine, waiting for the diners to visit.

If placed in the old times, this black boat is a favorite place for dignitaries and dignitaries who seek fragrance and novelty. Thinking back to those days, under the ambiguous and dim light, the beauties played the piano and played music, serving drunkards who didn't mean to drink.

But today, this Wu Peng restaurant has become a dating place for young men and women. Compared with ordinary restaurants and restaurants, Wu Peng Boat is extremely private, which is convenient for couples to talk about themselves, and the environment is quiet and easy to live. Feelings are very popular for a while.

The first time Xia Jinting came back here, he looked around and saw that all the boats were full of dating men and women, he was a little surprised for a while.

Gu Que has already reserved a seat in advance, and the table can start only when people arrive.

Green tea is served before the meal, and the red clay teapot is simmering on the stove. The slightly hot tea soup is clear and sweet, which makes people warm physically and mentally in winter.

After drinking a cup of tea, Xia Jinting squinted his eyes comfortably. Unlike Gu Que who concentrated on making tea, he could be said to be "seeing all directions and listening to all directions" on the boat, curious about everything.

It happened that there was a boat passing by, Xia Jinting glanced over, and saw a man and a woman cuddling behind the bead curtain from a distance.

He hurriedly looked back, his face was a little hot.

When the food was on the table, Xia Jinting took a closer look, it was all his favorite food, it would be far-fetched to say it was a coincidence.

Xia Jinting pointed at the sweet and sour chicken ball, and glanced at Gu Que: "I remember...you don't like sweet dishes, maybe I remembered wrongly?"

"That's right, but you like to eat." Gu Que said, reaching out to hold Xia Jinting's chopsticks.

The sweet taste penetrated from the tip of his tongue to his heart, Xia Jinting raised his eyebrows and said: "Mr. Gu, between us...is the boss and the subordinate?"

Gu Que glanced at him and nodded.

"I've never seen a boss treat his subordinates so well." Xia Jinting fixed his eyes on Gu Que's expression.

"At work, you and I are in an employment relationship." The sweet and sour chicken balls were too sweet, Gu Que frowned and took a sip of clear tea.

"Then... how about life? What is our relationship?" Xia Jinting made up his mind to ask the bottom line.

Without waiting for Gu Que to answer, the voice of the man came from outside the cabin: "You two guests, this is the lady who sings in our restaurant, her name is Lianniang, and she made a special trip to sing for you two."

This is another reason why Wu Peng restaurant is popular: the guys have good eyesight.

If you see a date on the boat, the guy will take the initiative to avoid suspicion and leave the private space for you and me.

If there are two men sitting on the boat, the man will lead the singing lady on board to add to the fun.

That Lianniang is a sensible person, after entering the door, she took the initiative to sit next to Gu Que with her pipa in her arms, and prepared to sing delicately.

Gu Que subconsciously glanced at Xia Jinting, who was eating on his own, talking and laughing calmly, with nothing unusual on his face.

Since it's a fun song, it's naturally colored, and the lyrics are faintly provocative. As Lianniang sang, she stared at Gu Que with amused eyes.

"Here's the money for you, go on down, you don't have to sing." Gu Que frowned slightly, and gave the reward.

Lianniang's singing stopped suddenly, and she looked at the bounty with some hesitation, seeing that Gu Que didn't mean to be joking, she took it carefully, but her face was a bit lonely.

When he got up, he heard Xia Jinting sigh: "Oh, my heart illuminates the moon, but the bright moon shines on the ditch."

Gu Que: ...

Xia Jinting: "Don't worry, sing another song, I will pay for it."

Gu Que: ...

After Lianniang finished singing, Xia Jinting happily applauded, but turned around to see Gu Que staring at him expressionlessly.

"What? She doesn't sing well?"

"Not as good as you." Gu Que's words stunned Xia Jinting.

These words brought back memories, Xia Jinting sang in Lido in the past, and Gu Que sat in the audience to listen.

The first time the two really talked was on the Lido stage.

"Speaking of which, you often go to Lido?" Xia Jinting asked with a half-smile.

Gu Que was originally holding a dish with chopsticks, but when he heard this, he paused, and the food between the chopsticks fell into the bowl.

He felt that Xia Jinting under the candlelight was very different tonight.In the past, he has seen Xia Jinting in many ways, reserved, intelligent, mysterious, and fragile, but he has never been like tonight, so clever and cunning that it is difficult to resist.

"Occasionally." Gu Que wiped his hands and answered truthfully.

Seeing Xia Jinting's comprehension eyes, he hastily added: "Let's talk about business."

Xia Jinting smiled indifferently, and looked up to the window.

At this moment, there are many lotus lanterns floating on the dark river.

This is also one of the methods used by Uppong restaurants to attract young men and women. Men and women who come to eat write their wishes on lotus lanterns and put them in the river, praying for their wishes to come true.

Countless men and women confided their hearts to each other in front of the Qinhe water lotus lantern.

Xia Jinting became interested, and asked the shopkeeper for a lotus lantern, wrote down his wish, and put it in the river himself.

Seeing the lotus lantern drifting farther and farther, and finally shrinking into a small spot of light in sight, Xia Jinting breathed out contentedly.

At the same time, Gu Que beside him had also thrown the lotus lantern into the river.

"You also believe in these things?" Xia Jinting said with a smile.

Among the people Xia Jinting met in his previous life, there are often two types of people who are in high positions and rich in wealth. One is superstitious in Fengshui and metaphysics.Another kind of seeing gods and killing gods, seeing ghosts and killing ghosts, is an out-and-out atheist.

Xia Jinting subconsciously felt that Gu Que should be the latter.

"I believe in fate." Gu Que said, "Otherwise, we would never meet."

Gu Que's straight shots became more and more frequent. At this moment, Xia Jinting was sure that Gu Que was definitely interested in him.

However, Gu Sanye, who has always been decisive in killing and attacking, has never pierced the window paper, allowing the ambiguity to accumulate day by day, scratching people's itch.

"Guess what I wrote on the lotus lantern?" Xia Jinting asked with a smile.

"Related to career?" Gu Que guessed.

"Wrong." Xia Jinting shook his head, "I make a wish, I hope that I can find a soul mate as soon as possible."

Gu Que was taken aback when he heard the words, he thought that Xia Jinting was focused on his career and had no thoughts on relationship matters.

Xia Jinting's wish was far beyond his expectation.

"Is there a standard?" Gu Que asked.

"Of course, she is beautiful, gentle, with long hair reaching to her waist, just like the so-called fair lady, a gentleman is so good..." Every time Xia Jinting said a word, Gu Que's face became stiff.

According to this statement, Xia Jinting actually likes women?

Gu Que felt that he had made a mistake. At that time, Xia Jinting and Jiang Kuan got engaged because he was forced to do so. Since he hated Jiang Kuan, he should like women.

Xia Jinting observed Gu Que's expression secretly, and became more and more sure of his guess.

"I'm just kidding you, I like men." Xia Jinting said frankly.

After Gu Que heard this, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief, his heart finally came to fruition.

Little did they know that in Xia Jinting's eyes, this bland reaction was simply a declaration of coming out in disguise, which made Xia Jinting couldn't help but tease: "You don't seem to be surprised at all?"

Gu Que didn't answer immediately, he approached Xia Jinting step by step, leaned over and pressed him against the carved porthole: "So...you were just kidding me?"

This time, Xia Jinting's eyes no longer dodged, he took the initiative to meet Gu Que's gaze, and said with a smile: "It's just a foreshadowing, after all...not everyone can accept liking the same sex."

Gu Que loosened the grip on Xia Jinting, and said calmly, "It's nothing, I like men too."

Speaking of this, both of them handed over their old background.

They maintained a tacit understanding and did not go further into each other's same-sex mate selection criteria.

The cold wind gradually calmed down the two restless hearts. When the boat docked, the two walked side by side by the river.

Suddenly, I heard the beating of gongs and drums ahead, and a circle of people not far away was very lively.

Xia Jinting was curious, so he stopped a bystander and asked, "What happened ahead, why is it so lively?"

"Today is the birthday of Boss Meng Jingtang of the Fengxiang Opera Troupe. Mr. Duan spent a lot of money on a banquet for him. The ostentation is magnificent. Now you can still get reward money!"

"Which Mr. Duan?" Xia Jinting had a vague guess in his mind.

"Who else is there, Duan Zhengnan, Meng Jingtang is now the person on the top of Mr. Duan's heart, so he's so precious."

"Hmph!" Xia Jinting snorted coldly, he could clearly see the entanglement between Duan Zhengnan and Liu Zhifang that day in Qiren Lane, and now Duan Zhengnan has a new love in the blink of an eye.

"Duan Zhengnan is really in a good mood. If he really obeyed that sentence, all men in the world are very lucky. When he loves him, he is like a jewel, like a treasure, and vows to each other. If he doesn't love him, he will speak ill and ignore him." Xia Jinting said.

Gu Que laughed and said, "You have overturned a boatload of people with this stick, and I want to complain for myself."

Xia Jinting walked around Gu Que, looked him up and down, shook his head and said: "There is a saying that like attracts like, and people are divided into groups. Since you and Duan Zhengnan are friends, you should also ask for the crime of sitting together." .”

Seeing a trace of helplessness on Gu Que's face, Xia Jinting's mood turned from cloudy to sunny, and he couldn't hold back, and laughed out loud.

The author has something to say: Gu Que: I am too difficult
