"Your name is Gu Nianzhi? We have the same surname..." Gu Yanran nodded to Gu Nianzhi with a very kind look, "Can I take the liberty of asking you, what are the characters of your name?"
Gu Nianzhi said hello to her obediently, and then said, "I miss you as much as I miss you."
Gu Yanran smiled and nodded, "Nianzhi? Nianzhi? What a good name..."
"Thank you, Miss Gu." Gu Nianzhi smiled, not knowing how to respond.
Xue Jingjiang laughed loudly at this time and said: "Yanran, why do you say someone's name like this? You see, we don't even know how to answer! Hahahaha..."
Gu Yanran smiled slightly, "I think this name is quite special."
Gu Nianzhi didn't pay attention and said nonchalantly: "Well, it's just one word anyway. My name is these two words."
Huo Shaoheng coughed next to him and said to Xue Jingjiang: "Boots, please don't be rude when you invite Miss Gu to dinner."
This was a hint to him to take Gu Yanran away and not waste time chattering here.
Xue Jingjiang understood what he meant, and also understood Huo Shaoheng's unusual thoughts towards Gu Nianzhi. He smiled and nodded to Gu Nianzhi with a much more polite tone, "Nianzhi, let's go over for dinner first. You can go to Jiu Nianzhi when you are free. Lou Fengyue, I have prepared your favorite dishes for you and can deliver them at any time."
"Thank you, Brother Xue." Gu Nianzhi thanked him obediently and watched Xue Jingjiang and Gu Yanran leave.
Huo Shaoheng asked her to sit down, "Have you ordered anything?"
"Not yet, I'll order it when you come over." Gu Nianzhi sat on the side of the double seat against the glass wall. Huo Shaoheng sat opposite her. His tall body just blocked the prying eyes of outsiders, giving Gu Nianzhi a very complete space.
Huo Shaoheng turned around and waved, asking the waitress to come over and take orders.
"What good dishes do you recommend today?" Huo Shaoheng asked the waitress directly without looking at the menu.
The waitress was very attentive and said with a smile: "The Valentine's Day set menu launched by our restaurant today is very popular. Would you like to order a set, sir?"
"What kind of dishes are there?" Huo Shaoheng glanced at the Valentine's Day set menu handed over by the waitress, and directly chose the most expensive one, a 6,666 yuan set menu for two people. For good luck, he said: "Don't put onions in this black pepper steak."
Gu Nianzhi came here not to eat, but to enjoy the atmosphere and feeling here.
This is what you want to have a Valentine's Day dinner with the person you like on Valentine's Day.
After a while, the set meal was served, starting with appetizers, a small plate of vegetable salad and a small bowl of fruit salad, and then a long loaf of freshly baked French baguette.
To go with the bread, the set meal also comes with a small plate of freshly thawed caviar, which is crushed with a knife and spread on the bread. It is extremely delicious.
Gu Nianzhi took the knife and fork, skillfully cut a few slices, spread them with caviar, and put them on Huo Shaoheng's plate.
Then came the corn seafood soup. The sweet and crispy corn kernels perfectly balanced the taste in the fragrant and fiery seafood soup.
The main meal was black pepper steak and grilled cod with red wine and herbs, paired with a cold plate, and the small two-seater table was densely packed.
Gu Nianzhi knew that after finishing these dishes, there was still dessert waiting for them, so he couldn't help but hold his head and said: "So many things have to be eaten? I will definitely gain a few pounds after eating them."
Huo Shaoheng took the knife and fork, cut a piece of steak and put it in his mouth. After swallowing it, he said to her: "Don't worry, go back and exercise after eating."
Gu Nianzhi: "..."
What kind of exercise are you doing in the middle of the night? !
But she soon understood that this "movement" was not the other "movement"...
He lowered his head with a slightly red face, picked up the knife and fork, silently cut the steak into small cubes, and started eating.
The steak here is actually averagely done, but it looks good in presentation, but it's a bit overcooked, burnt on the outside and tough on the inside, and it's not a small burden on your teeth when you eat it.
She stopped eating after two bites and ate grilled cod instead.
The fish meat was more tender and luscious. She finished the whole grilled cod with red wine and herbs in one go and said with praise: "This dish is really good. The fishy smell of the fish was suppressed by the red wine and herbs, but the sweetness of the fish was not at all." It’s really rare to be robbed.”
Huo Shaoheng looked at the black pepper steak that Gu Nianzhi had only eaten in two small bites, reached for it, and at the same time pushed his plate of grilled cod towards her.
Gu Nianzhi said hurriedly: "That steak is too hard and not delicious. Mr. Huo, you don't need to eat so much."
"It's okay." Huo Shaoheng lowered his eyes and picked up a piece of steak cut into four squares, "Don't waste it."
Gu Nianzhi stopped talking, dragged Huo Shaoheng's plate of grilled cod over, divided it with a knife, and ate it all in one bite.
On the other side of the restaurant, Gu Yanran and Xue Jingjiang's dinner was almost over, but they were delayed for a while because they discovered Huo Shaoheng.
After returning to their seats, the two of them had a few bites, then asked the waitress to put away the dishes and serve dessert.
Gu Yanran wanted tiramisu, while Xue Jingjiang only wanted a small piece of New York cheesecake.
"Jingjiang, you really should try the tiramisu here." Gu Yanran forked a small piece of tiramisu and put it in her mouth, squinting her eyes and groaning, "The tiramisu here is really good. Not bad, very authentic, with the flavor of Italian origin.”
Xue Jingjiang smiled and said: "The chef here was specially invited by the boss from Italy. Do you think he is authentic?"
"There are many chefs in Italy, but few of them make such good tiramisu. Come on, do you want to try it?" Gu Yanran took an unused fork and gave Xue Jingjiang a small piece. Feed it directly into his mouth.
Xue Jingjiang ate a few times, forced himself to swallow it, frowned and said, "Is it too sweet? It's so sweet, is it really delicious?"
"... Deliciousness comes second. I like it because it is the most difficult dessert to make and is known as the king of desserts." Gu Yanran said pointedly, "My own tiramisu is better than this. "
"Then if you have the chance, I want to taste the tiramisu made by Miss Gu herself." Xue Jingjiang hurriedly complimented.
"I'll definitely give it a chance." Gu Yanran raised her face and smiled brightly at him. Her graceful and delicate face made people unable to look away after just one glance.
Although Xue Jingjiang is an experienced driver, he still has no resistance to a natural beauty like Gu Yanran.
He actually blushed at the sight of Gu Yanran, his heart was pounding, his mind went blank, and he couldn't even hear the sound in his ears. He only saw Gu Yanran's red lips opening and closing in front of his eyes, and her beautiful voice. lingering in his ears, but he had no idea what she was talking about.
There was only one wish in his heart: if only this voice could keep speaking and never stop...
"Jingjiang? Jingjiang?" Gu Yanran reached out and knocked on the dining table in front of Xue Jingjiang, "What's wrong with you? I'm talking to you."
"Oh, I'm listening. What did you say?" Xue Jingjiang came back to his senses and secretly expressed his gratitude to himself that a veteran driver could have such an innocent day...
Gu Yanran was angry and funny, so she lightly kicked Xue Jingjiang under the table. The toes of the pointed Manolo-Blahnik high heels flicked past Xue Jingjiang's legs, causing him a slight sting. It was not special. It hurts, but it's a very impressive feeling.
"I wonder if you and Major General Huo are really friends? I haven't heard you say that before?" Gu Yanran asked lightly, taking a sip of coffee.
Xue Jingjiang only mentioned that he knew Huo Shaoheng, but there were many people who knew Huo Shaoheng, and Huo Shaoheng may not be a fan of everyone.
But it's different when I'm young.
"Of course it was my fault. I didn't need to tell you before." Xue Jingjiang returned to his normal state and joked with a smile, "Besides, when we do business, what does Mr. Huo have to do with it? Right?"
"If I had known that you were familiar with Major General Huo, I would have asked my subordinates to sign a contract with you quickly and not issue so many letters of credit." Gu Yanran said seriously, "Although there are some problems with the bank's assessment of your financial resources, you have With Major General Huo as my back-up, why should I worry?"
"Hey, don't say that. Business is business, and favors are favors. Mr. Huo and I are growing up, so it doesn't mean that he has to shoulder everything on my behalf." Xue Jingjiang was an understanding person and hurriedly opened up a relationship with Huo Shaoheng. , "If the bank thinks there is a problem, we can solve it through negotiation, but I don't dare to ask Mr. Huo to give me a guarantee."
"Huh? I didn't expect you to avoid suspicion." Gu Yanran gave him a strange look, "It's not the first time I've done business with people from your country. This is the first time I've seen someone like you. Is it relevant? If you don't climb up, you won't take advantage of it. - Okay, just because of your character, I will accept your friend as Gu Yanran!"
Xue Jingjiang grinned, raised his glass and said, "Then let's make it a deal!"
Gu Yanran clinked glasses with him and asked him curiously after finishing the drink: "Major General Huo and you are childhood friends, so who is the girl he brought with him today? You said it was his child, but how could he bring his own child with him?" The kids came out to eat the Valentine's Day set meal? Let's talk about one with the surname Gu and the other with the surname Huo..."
Xue Jingjiang didn't know much about the relationship between Huo Shaoheng and Gu Nianzhi. He only knew that Huo Shaoheng cared about her very much, and he should be a little thoughtful about her.
He said vaguely: "That's how we say it. It's the person he protects, so we all say it's his child."
"Oh..." Gu Yanran didn't understand what she heard, but she politely expressed her understanding and didn't ask any more questions.
The two finished their desserts quickly. Pay the bill and leave.
Before leaving, Xue Jingjiang waved to Huo Shaoheng without walking over to say hello.
Gu Yanran also took a look and said with emotion: "Miss Gu Nianzhi is really beautiful. I don't know what kind of handsome men and beautiful women her parents are to give birth to such a little beauty."
"Nianzhi? It's okay..." Xue Jingjiang laughed, "Master Huo's mother is the real beauty. You haven't seen her, have you?"
