Jiang Zhilian frowned, squinted, and asked in a negotiating tone, "Go to the lounge on the second floor to talk?" ”

"Okay." Lao Gao nodded, took off his apron, and walked out of the back kitchen.

Jiang Zhilian heard Lao Gao's footsteps ascending the stairs, a little heavy.

She thought about it, leaned in front of Hua Gou, and asked in a low voice, "Do you know what's going on with Lao Gao?" ”

Hua Gou stopped what he was doing and shook his head, "I don't know." ”

"It's been like this lately?" Jiang Zhilian asked again.

"It doesn't seem to be...... Hua Gou thought about it seriously, "but his mood has really been unstable these days, he is suddenly happy, and suddenly he doesn't care much about people." ”

Jiang Zhilian muttered, "That's ......"

"Little Quail and Full Moon, they guess that Lao Gao is in love." Hua Gou said in a joking tone: "It is said that he has gained and lost, especially like falling in love, hahahahahaha......"

Jiang Zhilian laughed dryly, and had a bad premonition in her heart.

Lao Gao wants to talk to her alone-

She had a hunch that what she would hear later would not be good news.

What's the bad news that would be?

Gao Le carried a sack of potatoes into the back kitchen, Jiang Zhilian saw him put the sack on the ground, so she immediately stepped forward, grabbed his arm, and asked, "Have you been with Lao Gao for the past few days?" ”

Gao Le was stunned, then shook his head slightly.

"Does he go home and sleep at night?" In fact, Jiang Zhilian didn't know why she asked this question, but she subconsciously asked it.

Gao Le was stunned for two seconds, then slowly shook his head again.

Jiang Zhilian didn't embarrass him anymore, "Okay, you're busy with yours!" ”

Gao Le took a large basin, sat down on a small bench, and skillfully peeled the potatoes.

Jiang Zhilian sorted out her thoughts and walked towards the door.

When she walked to the door, she heard Gao Le whisper, "Boss, don't be embarrassed. ”

Although this sentence was vague and her voice was low, Jiang Zhilian heard it very clearly.

"Why should I embarrass him?" She smiled softly.

"......" Gao Le didn't know what to say, and his mouth was still the same sentence just now, "Don't embarrass Lao Gao. ”

"Got it." After the words fell, Jiang Zhilian walked out of the back kitchen and went up to the second floor.

Gao Fengshou had already brewed two cups of black tea and sat on a stool in the lounge.

Jiang Zhilian walked across from him and sat down, drinking tea silently.

The two drank in silence for five minutes, neither of them taking the lead to speak.

It wasn't until all the hot water in the thermos was drunk that Gao Fengshou said with difficulty: "I'm leaving." ”

"Hmm." Jiang Zhilian was not too surprised, she tried to think of many possibilities, and this one was what she expected.

"Do you want to take Kodaka with you?" She asked.

"He ......," Gao Fengshou paused, "depending on what he means!" ”

Jiang Zhilian grinned lightly, "He will definitely follow you." ”

Gao Fengshou smiled wryly and said in a low voice: "Not necessarily, he likes vegetarian restaurants." ”

"He wants to go, I won't stop him; I welcome him to stay. Jiang Zhilian raised her eyes to look at Gao Fengshou, "Old Gao, do you want to take him away?" ”

Gao Fengshou lowered his eyes and pondered.

"I want to hear the truth." Jiang Zhilian added.

"I've always treated him like a son." Gao Fengshou stared at the teacup in front of him, "Xiao Gao doesn't understand human feelings, I don't worry about him." ”

Jiang Zhilian nodded, "Well, I understand." ”

"But—" Gao Fengshou's tone was serious and solemn, "I still hope he can stay with you and continue to work." ”

Jiang Zhilian said in a relaxed tone: "Thank you for trusting me!" If he stays, I won't bully him. To tell you the truth, if Xiao Gao leaves, I really won't be able to find an assistant who can peel and prepare vegetables more than him for a while. ”

Gao Fengshou hesitated for a moment, but still took the initiative to mention the key point of this matter, "Don't you ask me why I want to go?" ”

"It's going to rain, and my mother is going to get married. Those who want to leave can't be kept. ”

Jiang Zhilian sighed lightly, "You naturally have your reasons. As for why you want to go, if you want to say it, you will naturally say it; But if you don't take the initiative, I won't ask. ”

Gao Fengshou raised his head.

Jiang Zhilian looked at him, "Lao Gao, you have always been mature and steady, since you opened your mouth to tell me that you were leaving, it must have been a decision made after careful consideration." ”

She paused for a moment, her voice sinking down, "Old Gao, I respect your choice. ”

Gao Fengshou's fingers trembled twice involuntarily, "I-I'm going to Wanwanxiang." ”

Jiang Zhilian's head buzzed.

That's the worst of all!

Bowl of wine?

It turned out to be a bowl of fragrance?

It's grandma's legs!

Jiang Zhilian took a deep breath to calm herself down and think.

She pays Lao Gao a lot of money, and Lao Gao is a person who values affection, so he won't be poached easily.

If Wanwanxiang takes the initiative to pry the corner, in addition to the temptation of money, what means will he use?

Jiang Zhilian couldn't have imagined it.

However, combined with what Hua Gou said just now.

Is Lao Gao really in love?

Got a woman?

A person who values affection and righteousness, not for money, is likely to be - love?

Yes, Lao Gao must have fallen in love, so he decided to leave the vegetarian restaurant.

And this woman doesn't have to bother to guess.

"When did you and Sister Xiang get along?" Jiang Zhilian didn't beat around the bush and asked bluntly.

It was not surprising that Jiang Zhilian could quickly guess his relationship with Sister Xiang.

He replied vaguely, "It's been a while." ”

"For a while, for how long?" Jiang Zhilian asked.

Gao Fengshou was silent.

Jiang Zhilian narrowed her eyes, "A month? ”

Gao Fengshou pursed his lips.

Jiang Zhilian smiled, "That's two months?" ”

Gao Fengshou furrowed his brows.

"I need to know, what's going on, right?" Jiang Zhilian inevitably had fire in her heart, and her tone was not as good as before, "When I came up just now, Xiao Gao asked me not to embarrass you, and I deliberately said it twice, as if I was afraid that I would do something to you." ”

Gao Fengshou sighed heavily, "Not long after I came to the vegetarian restaurant, I liked Xiao Chen." But I didn't think much of it, and I didn't have much contact with her. ”

Jiang Zhilian: "Xiao Chen? Sister Xiang's surname is Chen? ”

"Yes." Gao Fengshou nodded, "Her name is Chen Xiang." ”

Jiang Zhilian: "Go on, what about after that?" ”

"After that, I ran into it a few times by chance." Gao Fengshou didn't say too many details, only said: "After coming and going, they became friends." She invited me to dinner, and the atmosphere was very good, so I asked her if she wanted to spend time with her in the future. ”

Jiang Zhilian: "And then she agreed?" ”

Gao Fengshou smiled lightly, "Yes, she didn't think about it for too long before she agreed." ”

Jiang Zhilian: "Isn't Sister Xiang already married?" What about her husband? ”

Gao Fengshou replied: "She died of illness a few years ago, and she has been living alone since then. ”

Jiang Zhilian: "Well......"

Two single people are together, you love me, there is no problem.

"I-" Gao Fengshou stopped talking.

Jiang Zhilian squinted at Gao Fengshou, "Say it!" I'm listening! ”

Next, it's the most important thing!

She had already guessed, but she still wanted to hear Gao Fengshou say it himself.

"The day I moved to Xiao Chen's house, we had a little drink......," Gao Fengshou paused, trying to find the right wording, "a little too much." I was in such a good mood at the time that I talked a lot. I didn't pay attention to it, and I accidentally mentioned it...... The hot pot thing. ”

Jiang Zhilian moved her gaze to the small window in the room, revealing a helpless wry smile.

Gao Fengshou glanced at Jiang Zhilian's expression and said with annoyance: "My life is very monotonous, and I revolve around the stove every day. For the rest of the day, except for sleeping, I was basically in the vegetarian restaurant. There are so few topics I can talk about. ”

"Alright, I understand." Jiang Zhilian said in a deep voice: "You want to say that you are unintentional, right?" ”

Gao Fengshou was silent.

"I'm not feeling well, that's for sure. But, calm down and think about it, I can't blame you. Since I mentioned it to you, and I didn't let you sign a confidentiality agreement, and I didn't even tell you not to tell others, I am also responsible. ”

Jiang Zhilian pinched her eyebrows and said, "This matter, let's stop here!" If you really said it accidentally, then don't feel guilty. ”

Gao Fengshou didn't know what to say, he had always been silent, and what he said just now was almost more than in the previous month.

"Boss Gao, I'll just remind you." Jiang Zhilian's eyes were sharp and her tone was sincere, "Love itself is quite beautiful, but it is too deceptive. I don't know Sister Xiang, but everyone on Chunfang Street knows that she is not a simple woman. You'd better take it easy and don't jump headlong into it. ”
