"What are you afraid of?"
Gu Jinyuan raised his eyebrows with a puzzled look on his face. Ye Wanqing picked up the cup and took a sip to calm down her shock. She organized her words and said softly: "You don't look like yourself now. It makes me feel unreal. It's like you are talking to someone I don't know." People eat.”
"What do you think is true about me?"
"Don't talk, wait for the food to be served, and then take me home after eating!"
Ye Wanqing answered without hesitation, a person like Gu Jinyuan should maintain his aloof persona, right? Why are you trying to cause trouble by suddenly being so gentle and considerate but still talkative?
"You like this?"
“……”
Who would like this?
Ye Wanqing rolled her eyes in her heart, for fear of giving this person a bad hint, she hesitated and said cautiously: "It's not that I like it, it's just that... we can start as ordinary friends, and we can get along with each other comfortably. There is no need to be too Deliberately.”
"I wouldn't spend so much time and energy treating an ordinary friend to dinner."
“……”
Ye Wanqing was speechless and didn't know how to talk to him.
After a while, Gu Jinyuan finally realized that he seemed to have made the atmosphere too tense, but he didn't know how to liven up the atmosphere. The guide he found didn't have a way to deal with this situation.
Fortunately, the waiter quickly brought the food and broke the deadlock.
This Chinese restaurant is very unique nearby, and the food tastes very good. Ye Wanqing drank some soup first. The soup was very fresh, appetizing and warming. Ye Wanqing's eyes lit up, knowing that she couldn't rely on Gu Jinyuan to adjust the atmosphere. , took the initiative and said: "This soup is quite delicious. How did you find this store?"
Gu Jinyuan always seemed to have no desires and no demands, and he didn't look like someone who would go out in search of delicious food.
"Voted by the company."
"vote?"
Ye Wanqing was confused. Seeing her interest, Gu Jinyuan said seriously: "At the meeting at the beginning of the year, I asked each department to recommend a restaurant that they most want to eat at during team building. This restaurant has the highest voice."
“……”
So Mr. Gu, are you blatantly pretending to be self-serving?
"How many restaurants are there in the back?"
"Thirty families."
"Do you want to take me to eat again?" Ye Wanqing's voice was light. She didn't expect that Gu Jinyuan would really pursue her so hard.
"Won't."
Gu Jinyuan shook his head. He had many other plans. Most of those restaurants were not nearby when these plans were implemented. It would be too troublesome to take her there to eat. He had better choices.
He never fights unprepared battles. Since he has agreed to chase someone, he must make strategies and plans carefully and not just do it half-heartedly. He doesn't believe that he can't impress her even after doing all these things.
"Would dating me delay your work and make you unhappy?"
"My work and life have always been very separate." Gu Jinyuan frowned, a little dissatisfied with Ye Wanqing's statement and felt that his ability to work was questioned.
"That's not what I meant. What I meant was, will you feel upset if you do these things?"
Gu Jinyuan thought for a moment. He had never done anything like this before. Although it took him a lot of personal time to make the plan, it did not make him feel irritated. On the contrary, many times he couldn't help but look forward to it when he followed the plan. Plan what kind of reaction this woman will give after doing those things.
But Gu Jinyuan didn't want to tell Ye Wanqing this kind of thing. He raised his chin and regained his composure: "What do you want to say?"
"It's nothing else. Just what I just said, let's follow the most casual and true version of ourselves. You don't have to deliberately change yourself because of any factors. I don't want you to suppress your dissatisfaction to deal with me against your will."
"Coping?" Gu Jinyuan frowned even more tightly, "Do you think everything I did today was to cope with you?"
His tone was quite arrogant, as if he was asking, 'Do you think I will spend time dealing with someone I don't want to deal with? ’
This tone finally allowed Ye Wanqing to find a sense of reality. This was Gu Jinyuan, the Gu Jinyuan who would not let herself be wronged because of anyone or anything.
"No, everything went fine tonight, thank you."
Ye Wanqing said sincerely. As soon as she finished her words, a salute sounded, she tilted her head, and a huge firework exploded outside the restaurant.
People in the restaurant were attracted by the scene outside. Some even put down what they were eating and walked to the window to record it on their mobile phones.
Only then did Ye Wanqing understand why the waiter had just said that their seat was the best, because there was a huge floor-to-ceiling window in front of them, which faced the place where the fireworks were set off. They could watch the entire fireworks show just by sitting here.
Gu Jinyuan was able to do this. From Ye Wanqing's point of view, there was nothing to criticize about.
Ye Wanqing was stunned. Gu Jinyuan suddenly grabbed her hand and asked, "Do you like it?"
"like."
Ye Wanqing nodded candidly.
For any woman, it would be touching if the opposite sex could do this for her.
Fortunately, Ye Wanqing is not a woman who is completely moved by a small favor.
She had been married once, had three children, and experienced many incredible things, so after being moved by this, she could still rationally examine her relationship with Gu Jinyuan.
The rest of the meal was finished under the brilliant fireworks. After the meal, Ye Wanqing did not go home immediately. Instead, she asked Gu Jinyuan to go to a nearby maternal and child store.
Neither Zhou Xiaoxiao nor Nie Zheng had any experience in taking care of children. They had been disturbed by their two children recently. Zhou Xiaoxiao made countless calls to Ye Wanqing for advice. Ye Wanqing was going to buy some practical gifts and go over to see them after the work in the studio was over tomorrow.
When she took care of the child, Lu Qiuhe helped her. Zhou Xiaoxiao was still a child at heart, so she was afraid that she would be tortured to death.
Ye Wanqing originally wanted Gu Jinyuan to go back first, but Gu Jinyuan didn't want to leave, so she had no choice but to let him follow.
The two of them went to choose maternal and infant products together. Gu Jinyuan actually knew something about diapers. Seeing Ye Wanqing's surprised expression, he explained: "When Mumu was little, I bought diapers for him once."
Of course, it is impossible for Gu Jinyuan to take care of the child. The Gu family should have a very experienced nanny, but it must be very rare for Gu Jinyuan to be able to buy diapers for Gu Zhenmu in person.
Ye Wanqing found that when she looked at Gu Jinyuan from the perspective of an ordinary friend, Gu Jinyuan was very good and could hardly find anything wrong with him.
As long as she has no demands or expectations from him, and doesn't expect any response from him, this person is very good.
It was so good that she didn't have to work hard to climb high, she just had to stand where she was and look up at the light radiating from him.
This way she won't be sad or disappointed, and both of them can't be better.
Ye Wanqing smiled, took a few bags of diapers recommended by Gu Jinyuan, and bought some other things.
Gu Jinyuan sent her home and helped carry her things upstairs. When Ye Wanqing was about to take the key and open the door, she heard him ask: "Miss Ye, what do you think of today's date?"
"If the full score is ten, Mr. Gu can get 9.9 points."
"What about the difference of 0.1?"
"I'm afraid you'll be proud, so I'll deduct it!"
Ye Wanqing playfully winked at Gu Jinyuan. She seemed to be really satisfied with this date. Gu Jinyuan could not see any flaws and raised the corners of her lips slightly: "Then, good night, Miss Ye."
"Good night, Mr. Gu."
