Chapter 41: You Can't Drink
Following.
Gu Chengye's sports car made its way through the hustle and bustle of the neighborhood, up the hill, and finally stopped in front of an old, even somewhat shabby, antique restaurant.
Lu Xingkong, who got out of the car, looked around and couldn't help asking, "Excuse me, this is here?" ”
"A friend's shop."
"Ah, oh, I see."
Lu Xingkong nodded, and then followed behind Gu Chengye and walked to the door of the restaurant together.
Yesterday, the black-clothed people of the black group found fault in Gu Chengye's law firm, Gu Chengye was stabbed for Lu Xingkong, in order to express his gratitude to Gu Chengye, Lu Xingkong decided to solemnly invite him to dinner.
However, when it was lunchtime, when Lu Xingkong invited Gu Chengye, Gu Chengye said that he would take her to a restaurant he frequented, which was said to have been opened by a friend.
But now that they arrived at their destination, Lu Xingkong was stunned.
The old-fashioned, even dilapidated restaurant in front of her was completely beyond her imagination.
This made Deer Starry Sky feel very confused......
She originally thought that the restaurant opened by a famous aristocratic barrister friend like Gu Chengye would be a luxurious, fashionable, and high-end Western restaurant, but she never expected that it would be this ancient, ancient, and even somewhat dilapidated small restaurant in front of her.
What's the matter, why did you bring her to such an old small restaurant instead of a luxurious western restaurant?
Lu Xingkong thought to himself, could it be that Gu Chengye was worried that she wouldn't be able to pay?
Although, she really doesn't have much money, and she's a little poor.
If she really goes to the kind of luxury Western restaurant where she can eat a meal, as a rookie lawyer, I am afraid that she will really not be able to make ends meet this month, and she can only use instant noodles to survive......
Lu Xingkong felt a little reluctant in his heart, but shook his head and didn't think about it.
She followed behind Gu Chengye and pushed open the door of the restaurant.
As soon as the door opened, I heard the owner of the restaurant enthusiastically calling Gu Chengye's name.
"Teacher Chengye!"
Teacher Cheng Ye?
This kind of title made Lu Xingkong a little surprised.
Gu Chengye waved his hand to the restaurant owner with a smile and sat down at the empty table in the restaurant.
"Uncle, I'm sorry, come over at this time, is lunchtime over?"
"What's the matter, as long as you come on the night, it's meal time at any time."
"Grab something, I haven't had lunch with this girl yet."
Gu Chengye smiled and talked to the restaurant owner, then looked at Lu Xingkong and asked, "By the way, can you eat spicy?" ”
"Uh...... Yes. ”
Gu Chengye's sudden question made Lu Xingkong, who was in a daze, nod in a panic.
It didn't take long for the restaurant owner to come over.
The boss was wearing a crescent white antique robe with a silver crown on his head, and he was a middle-aged man with a slender figure and a delicate appearance.
He can chat intimately with Gu Chengye, and it seems that he is a very good friend of Gu Chengye.
Gu Chengye had a conversation with the restaurant owner for a while before moving his gaze to Lu Xingkong.
Lu Xingkong didn't know what to say to Gu Chengye for a while, so he avoided Gu Chengye's sight.
Lu Xingkong thought about it, he and Gu Chengye had never chatted calmly.
Before, because of the case of X harassment, every time I met Gu Cheng at night, I would always argue, and there was always a lot of gunpowder between the two......
Moreover, it was a bit strange that she, as the lawyer entrusted by X to harass the victim, sat down to eat with Gu Chengye, the suspect of X harassment......
Lu Xingkong thought to himself, it would be nice if Gu Chengye could say something.
After all, the atmosphere was so awkward, and Lu Xingkong was extremely embarrassed.
However, Gu Chengye didn't know what he was thinking, he was silent, and he didn't mean to speak at all.
Lu Xingkong was so nervous that even his throat became thirsty.
Lu Xingkong thought about it again and again, and finally decided to break the awkward atmosphere and decided to speak first.
But what to say?
