Let's walk together for the rest of our lives. If the host says to leave, she will leave.

Gu Ling was unhappy and drank milk faster.

Seeing Gu Ling drinking so fast, Jiang Mingcheng inexplicably started to speed up as well. Then the two looked at each other, and the desire to win suddenly arose.

Gu Ling finished drinking first and was about to show off when he suddenly realized something.

No, why is she so happy? What's so good about this?

Damn! Jiang Mingcheng is poisonous.

Seeing that Gu Ling's face was getting uglier and uglier, Jiang Mingcheng asked, "Thirteen dollars and fifty cents, what's wrong with you?"

Gu Ling frowned: "I don't call it thirteen dollars and fifty cents."

"But when you called and introduced yourself it was thirteen dollars and a half."

Gu Ling didn't intend to argue with him: "My name is Gu Ling, Gu as in looking back, and Ling as in starting from zero, remember that."

There were too many people, and Jiang Mingcheng, who could not remember their names and only their characteristics, nodded guiltily and recited in his heart.

Gu Ling, Gu Ling, Gu Ling.

At this time, Jiang Mingcheng's mobile phone received a notification sound, indicating that there was finally a seat available at the barbecue restaurant.

Jiang Mingcheng stood up excitedly: "It's time, it's time, I'll take you to eat barbecue."

Gu Ling also wanted to see off this ordinary classmate whom he was not very familiar with as soon as possible, so the two of them walked towards the barbecue restaurant side by side.

After sitting down, Gu Ling went to serve the skewers to Jiang Mingcheng.

Jiang Mingcheng finally got to eat the barbecue. Gu Ling breathed a sigh of relief and carried the tray to serve dishes to other guests. Halfway through, the tray was taken away by Liu Qi.

Liu Qi raised his chin in a certain direction, motioned Gu Ling to look over there, and said, "The boss asked you to accompany your classmates to eat barbecue, so you don't need to come to help."

Father Gu was in the distance, with his index and middle fingers bent at the same time, pointing to his eyes, and then pointed in the direction of Gu Ling, the meaning was very clear:

I'll keep an eye on you.

Gu Ling went back swallowing his anger, and Gu's father smiled helplessly and shook his head.

Children nowadays just like to act like adults. They, as adults, will take care of the trivialities in life. Lingling, you are still a child. You should play with your peers more so as not to have a sad face all day long.

"Boss, two bottles of beer!"

"Hey! Here they come!"

Gu Ling sat down opposite Jiang Mingcheng, who had just started eating. Seeing her come back, he handed her a skewer: "Want one?"

Gu Ling folded his arms and turned his head away: "No."

If you don’t want it, then don’t want it.

Jiang Mingcheng was eating happily. Seeing that his mouth was full but he was still stuffing food into it, Gu Ling's cool guy filter for Jiang Mingcheng in his mind had already shattered into pieces and could not be put back together.

Alas, why doesn’t such a great face appear on her face?

Jiang Mingcheng swallowed the food in his mouth, took a sip of sour plum juice, and said, "What's wrong with you? You don't seem very happy."

Gu Ling has always been unhappy, but if she wants to be unhappy, then she is unhappy. Why does she sigh in front of his face?

It's really disgusting.

"I should have been helping the store take care of business at this time, but I'm not here today."

"Oh, go ahead then. I didn't ask you to sit here."

Gu Ling looked at him with resentful eyes: "My dad said that I brought you back, and I want to stay with you."

Jiang Mingcheng understood now. It turned out that he was the one who was interfering with other people's work.

He asked, "What do you usually do? Is it difficult?"

"It's not difficult, just keeping accounts and serving dishes. Just like that." Gu Ling looked in the direction of Gu's father.

After all, this is barbecue, the customers can do it themselves, and the waiters only need to serve the dishes to the customers.

Jiang Mingcheng patted his chest and said proudly: "I'll help you after I finish eating!"

Gu Ling questioned: "You?"

Jiang Mingcheng handed a handful of skewers to Gu Ling, a little impatient: "Don't worry, I'm very skillful, and even if I can't, just finish eating quickly, and you can help quickly."

Makes sense.

Gu Ling and Jiang Mingcheng immediately buried their heads in eating, and the speed of roasting could not keep up with the speed of eating.

The customers around the two of them saw how deliciously they were eating and their appetites unknowingly increased, so they ordered quite a few more dishes.

Soon, the delicious food was finished by the two of them. After drinking the last bit of sour plum juice in the pot, they wiped their mouths with tissues in unison and stood up together.

Before taking action, Gu Ling asked one last time: "Are you sure you want to help?"

"no sooner said than done!"

Gu Ling handed the apron to Jiang Mingcheng, asked him to wait for a moment, and went upstairs.

Passing by the kitchen, she looked at the pink apron hanging inside and hesitated slightly, but still picked up the green work apron at home.

She looked at herself in the mirror and thought: Actually, this apron is not that ugly.

Gu Ling told Jiang Mingcheng some precautions and guided Jiang Mingcheng through it for a while. He quickly got the hang of it, and although it was a bit slow, he didn't make any mistakes.

Moreover, Jiang Mingcheng is handsome and capable, so even if he is a little slow, no one will complain and will even make some harmless teasing at him.

Just when Jiang Mingcheng was getting into the groove, busy father Gu discovered this free worker.

He grabbed Gu Ling, who was walking briskly, and asked her with glaring eyes, "What's wrong with that kid? Do you have the nerve to let him work?"

Gu Ling said innocently: "Dad, I am also a child, I am also working."

Hearing Gu Ling calling himself a kid, Dad Gu felt a strange sense of disobedience.

Wait, now is not the time to think about this.

"you……"

Gu Ling shouted, "Jiang Mingcheng! Table number three wants ten skewers of lamb and two skewers of grilled sausages. Don't forget to give two bottles of beer to table number four next to you when you pass by!"

Jiang Mingcheng responded enthusiastically: "Okay!"

After saying that, Gu Ling looked at his father Gu and said, "Dad, please let me go. If I do less, the kid you mentioned will have to do more. You will be distressed then."

Father Gu: What the hell? He is not my child, why should I feel sorry for him? This is not a matter of family ties, he is embarrassed...

Besides, if Gu Ling plays with Jiang Mingcheng, she doesn't have to work. It's obvious that he is worried about his own daughter.

Gu Ling ran out in a flash, and his father Gu was at a loss whether to laugh or cry. What a kid.

At nine o'clock in the evening, Gu Ling pulled Jiang Mingcheng, who was getting more and more excited, and said, "Don't be busy. Take a rest and I'll take you home."

"Ah?" Jiang Mingcheng looked around. "Now is a time when there are many people. I can still..."

"You can't." Gu Ling rolled his eyes and said, "My dad doesn't like you working for free. If you continue to help, my dad will beat me."

Mr. Gu, who was blamed for something he had done wrong: It’s not me. I didn’t do it.

Jiang Mingcheng was shocked that Mr. Gu, who looked cheerful, would beat his own daughter at every turn.

He responded with great sympathy: "Okay, then I'll go back."

Jiang Mingcheng returned the apron, said hello to Gu's father, and then walked out with Gu Ling.

When they were far away from the barbecue restaurant, Jiang Mingcheng urged her to go back. Gu Ling shook her head: "I will go back after you get in the car."

So Jiang Mingcheng stopped talking.

Away from the bustling barbecue restaurant, the surroundings began to become quiet.

Under the orange-yellow street lights, the boy and the girl walked side by side. As they passed each street lamp, their shadows became longer and lighter, then shorter and darker.

Away from the hustle and bustle, they also quieted down, and the sound of vehicle horns could be faintly heard in the distance.

Today's experience was something Jiang Mingcheng had never had before. Although he came from a wealthy family, he had been to places like food stalls, but he had never stayed there.

When he approached those small shops with plain decoration and briefly became a member of the shops, the things he had been searching for for a long time finally filled his lonely heart for a short time.

Those lively, casual, and warm people and things are what he has always been pursuing, and are something that the empty villa does not have.

"that……"

"that……"

"You speak first."

"You speak first."

The two of them fell silent at the same time, then reached out to cover each other's mouths at the same time, trying to manually mute each other's microphones, but they didn't expect that the other party thought the same way.

They saw the same emotion in each other's eyes——

This damn tacit understanding!

They let go of each other and started walking towards the road again, waiting for the bus there.

The weather in September was still hot, and the evening breeze blew by, soothing Gu Ling's emotions little by little.

She turned her head slightly to look at Jiang Mingcheng. The young man had a faint smile on his face and seemed to be in a good mood. He didn't look at all unhappy about working in vain.

Gu Ling thought back to everything that happened after he met Jiang Mingcheng, and felt that this somewhat immature boy was actually... not bad.

Jiang Mingcheng suddenly looked at Gu Ling and asked, "What's wrong?"

"The car is here."

A taxi stopped by the roadside. After the two said goodbye, Jiang Mingcheng opened the door and suddenly heard Gu Ling say, "Jiang Mingcheng, thank you for today! See you tomorrow."

Gu Ling still had that expressionless look on her face. She turned around, waved casually, her hair swaying slightly, and walked home with a brisk pace.

Jiang Mingcheng got into the car at the driver's reminder. Thinking of the expressionless baby face just now, he suddenly laughed out loud.

Today, King Jiang Mingcheng is very happy——

Because of an interesting people.
