King Jack Sue

At 8 o'clock in the evening, Yan Ci came to Catherine's Western Restaurant as scheduled.

The bright lights illuminate the marble floor, the sound of the gorgeous violin flows out, the waiters pass by in neat and clean clothes, the whispers of the guests are accompanied by light laughter, and the whole restaurant is enveloped in a gentle and extravagant atmosphere.

Yan Ci was led to a place by the window by the waiter.

The red coral tree vaguely cuts off the hall, and the lights above the head are also dimmed a bit, not as bright as before, but a bit more secretive and soft.

Gu Xuan propped her hands on the table, rested her chin on her hands, and tilted her head to look out of the glass.

Outside the window is an exquisitely decorated garden with excellent greenery, flowers, plants and trees blooming with fragrance, the central fountain changes shapes and splashes, and the lights shine on it, shining a little bit of beauty.

"Senior Gu." Yan Ci said softly.

Gu Xuan withdrew his gaze from staring at the fountain, and said to Yan Ci, "You're here, sit down."

Yan Ci sat across from him.

"Have you been here before?"

"No."

"The western food here is very good. Among all the restaurants I've been to, it's considered top-notch, but my favorite is the fountain here. It's very beautiful." Gu Xuan touched the glass with her hand.

Yan Ci followed his hand to see the fountain and nodded: "It's really beautiful, but compared to the fountain, I want to know why Senior Gu called me here, what's the matter?"

"Have a meal."

"Eat..." Yan Ci was taken aback.

“What else can you do in a restaurant if you don’t eat”

Yan Ci: "..."

Seeing that Yan Ci was speechless, Gu Xuan couldn't help but smile: "You have done me a favor by eating this meal with me."

Yan Ci is unclear, so: "how to say"

"If you have trouble finding me, I don't want to be found, so I excuse myself."

"So I'm the reason you borrowed"

"Yes."

Yan Ci's face was complicated.

Gu Xuan smiled: "What's your expression?"

"The expression that wants to complain, but there are too many complaints, and I don't know where to start."

Gu Xuan laughed out loud, lifted the water on the table to take a sip, "Let me guess, is the point I want to complain most about why I want to find you and why I brought you here?"

Yan Ci continued to be complicated: "Since Senior Gu understands so well, then please enlighten Senior Gu."

"I came here because I told a troublesome person that I had an appointment with a friend to eat at a restaurant, and I came to you because I wanted to return the favor you lent me for books."

Excuseme, the first explanation is fine, what the hell is the second one

Yan Ci was in a mess: "Senior Gu, do you know that I am poor?"

"I didn't ask you to give me any money."

"but I……"

"Excuse me, your pre-dinner meals." The waiter brought up a few small plates, and the plates contained exquisite food.

"Thank you." Gu Xuan nodded to thank the waiter.

Yan Ci rested his forehead with his hands, and ten thousand muddy horses galloped past his heart.

It is true that it is not false to say it with an excuse, but it is definitely not true to say it back. The reason why Gu Xuan knows so many people and insists on looking for Yan Ci is simply because he wants to.

Gu Xuan put down the glass: "Since I've already paid the money and you're here, it's useless to struggle, it's better to have a good meal."

Yan Ci was helpless: "Senior, it's hard for me to do what you do."

"Why is it so difficult?"

"Being inexplicably owed favors to others would make normal people uncomfortable."

"Didn't I tell you to return your favor?"

"The values ​​are not equal."

Gu Xuan said: "Then how are you doing?"

Yan Ci pondered for a moment: "Give me Alipay or WeChat, and I'll send you the money."

Gu Xuan leaned back on the chair: "You don't need to pay back the money, you can ask me to come back later, take your time, I'm not in a hurry."

Take your time, this is the plan to meet and get along for a long time

Yan Ci didn't understand, so he raised his eyes to look at him, and Gu Xuan also looked at him, and the eyes of the two converged together, quietly forming a river.

I don't know if it's an illusion, but Yan Ci always feels that Gu Xuan treats him a little differently.This is the second time they met. It stands to reason that Gu Xuan should still be as polite and distant as the first time, but for some reason, this person didn't. He showed himself notes, borrowed his books, and invited himself to dinner. , his speech and demeanor are not only not indifferent and alienated, but even reveal an indescribable intimacy.

Yan Ci boasted that he had read countless people, but this time, he couldn't understand it.

The vibrating sound of the phone suddenly rang, interrupting Yan Ci's train of thought. He went to fumble for his phone, but found that the phone didn't ring, and it was Gu Xuan's phone that rang.

Gu Xuan stared at the caller ID, and hung up the phone expressionlessly.

But then the phone rang again, Gu Xuan frowned slightly, and hung up the phone again.

The third time the phone rang, Gu Xuan stared at the screen for a long time, then said to Yan Ci: "I'll go out and answer the phone."

Yan Ci nodded: "Okay."

When Gu Xuan walked out, Yan Ci looked down at the exquisite dishes on the plate, then turned his head to look at the hot spring outside the glass, and sighed helplessly.

"Yan Cici" came the familiar clear female voice, Yan Ci was startled, looking for the sound.

"Hey, it's really you!" He Shuqian was wearing a white off-the-shoulder dress, with delicate light-colored patterns winding along the skirt, chestnut curly hair shawl, and beautiful silver-white gleams on the earrings.Standing by the red coral tree, she raised her eyebrows and smiled at Yan Ci, her eyes flashed with boundless beauty.

Maybe brighter red is more suitable for her, but white is also very charming on her, Yan Ci thought.

Seeing Yan Ci looking at her without blinking, He Shuqian immediately made a coquettish pose: "Are you overwhelmed by my sister's unique beauty?"

Yan Ci sneered: "Conquered by your unique stupidity."

"Cut," He Shuqian put down her hands, rolled her eyes and walked towards Yan Ci: "I said, why are you here, dead ghost?"

After finishing speaking, he glanced at the table and smiled maliciously: "Hey, there are still two people, why, invite the girl to dinner?"

Yan Ci joked, "No, it's my sister who invited me to dinner."

"You are so good"

"That's not."

He Shuqian pouted: "I don't believe it."

Yan Ci laughed out loud: "Believe it or not, but why are you here?"

He Shuqian took advantage of the opportunity and sat on the chair opposite Yan Ci: "Someone invites me to dinner."

"Oh~" Yan Ci had a gossip look on his face: "Male?"

He Shuqian smiled mysteriously, leaned on the table and approached him: "No, it's a woman."

Yan Ci raised his eyebrows: "You are so powerful"

He Shuqian let go and sat back on the chair: "I learned from you, that's okay"

Yan Ci smiled and said nothing.

Looking around, He Shuqian wondered: "Didn't you have dinner with my sister, why isn't she here?"

"Go out to answer the phone."

"Tsk tsk," He Shuqian said with an expression of "sorrow for her misfortune and hatred for her indisputability": "The girl is right in front of you, you didn't let her take a good look at you, but let her run out to answer the phone!"

Yan Ci spread his hands: "I have something to do, I can stop it, but you, why did you suddenly come here to eat with someone?"

"After eating, that bastard packs up his things, and I'll see you as soon as I walk around." He Shuqian lay on the table and smiled: "Is the girl pretty, huh?"

Yan Ci thought carefully about Gu Xuan's appearance: "Well...it's pretty good-looking."

"What an excellent opinion?"

Yan Ci stroked his chin and made things up: "The skin is like creamy fat, the eyes are like autumn water, the muscles are icy and the bones are fine, the beauty is natural and..."

"and what"

Yan Ci blinked: "The beauty is delicious."

"Who are you talking about is beautiful and delicious?" A deep and melodious male voice came from behind.

Yan Ci froze.

"Senior Gu..." Before Yan Ci could speak, someone took up the conversation before him.

He Shuqian stared blankly at the person standing behind Yan Ci, her eyes were a little dazed.

Gu Xuan put one hand into his pocket and smiled faintly: "Long time no see, Shuqian."

Shuqian feels that these two people know each other, and they seem to have a good friendship?But... why does Qianqian have such an expression?

He Shuqian opened her mouth to reply, but she didn't say anything. She looked at Gu Xuan for a long time, bit her lips, and her eyes slowly gathered water.

Yan Ci let out a "fuck" in his heart, thinking what kind of twist is this?

"Qianqian, why did you come here? We should go." A girl in a light gray short skirt suddenly came into view and pulled He Shuqian. When she saw Yan Ci and Gu Xuan, she couldn't help being surprised: "Are they ..."

"Acquaintance," He Shuqian slowly regained consciousness, stood up from the chair, pursed her lips to calm down, and said to Gu Xuan, "Excuse me, Senior Gu, I'll take a step first."

"Well, go slowly." Gu Xuan nodded lightly without changing his expression.

Yan Ci looked at the gray figure with complicated emotions, she really is a woman...

After the two left, Gu Xuan sat back in his original seat, just as the waiter served the second course.

"Let's start." Gu Xuan said.

It was nearly nine o'clock after a meal, and the two left the restaurant and walked slowly along the street to the school.The early summer wind blows and sweeps across the green trees on both sides of the road, making a "squeaky" sound, which relieves a bit of the city's heat.

The two of them said nothing, just walked slowly.

Gu Xuan stopped suddenly: "Is there anything you want to ask me?"

Yan Ci also stopped: "Senior refers to you and Shuqian"

"Aren't you curious?"

"A little bit, but this is the senior's own business. It's not good for me to ask. Besides, I know Shuqian, so you didn't ask."

Gu Xuan smiled, stepped forward and continued walking, Yan Ci followed beside him.

K University is not very far from Catherine, but it still takes about 10 minutes to walk.The lights on both sides of the road and in the city buildings gradually turned on, intentionally or unintentionally shining on people, Yan Ci glanced at a group of lively men and women walking by not far away.

Gu Xuan said, "Do you like crowds?"

"I can get used to it, but I don't like it. Where's Senior Gu?"

Gu Xuan turned to look at the crowd: "I'm used to it, but I also like it."

Sure enough, a school-level man like Gu Xuan is different from himself, Yan Ci shrugged.

During the conversation, the two had arrived at the school gate.

"I won't see you off for the rest of the way."

Yan Ci was puzzled: "Is Senior Gu not going back to school?"

"I live outside."

"So that's the case, see you later, senior."

"See you."
