He Zhichu snorted again before returning to his seat and sitting down, but his face was covered with frost and he didn't seem to have any appetite at all.
Gu Nianzhi didn't dare to look up at He Zhichu. She sat next to Huo Shaoheng, silently took the bowls and chopsticks and looked at the dishes on the table.
The dishes He Zhichu ordered were all Gu Nianzhi's favorite home-cooked dishes, lotus root and pork ribs soup, pearl dumplings, fried eggs with peppers, fried shredded pork with peppers and wild rice, and vinegar-coated potato shreds. They were both bright green and bright yellow. Refreshing whiteness, and lotus-colored pork ribs soup.
Gu Nianzhi's eyes fell on the lotus root and pork ribs soup.
Drinking soup before eating was still a habit taught to her by Huo Shaoheng.
He Zhichu also had this habit.
But now he had no appetite at all and just looked at Gu Nianzhi quietly.
Huo Shaoheng picked up the spoon, scooped a spoonful of lotus root and pork ribs soup and put it in front of Gu Nianzhi.
Gu Nianzhi sipped the soup while looking at He Zhichu, then at Huo Shaoheng, and said hesitantly: "Professor He, don't you want to eat?"
After hearing what Gu Nianzhi said, Huo Shaoheng took his own bowl, filled a large bowl of rice, and ate it with chili-fried eggs and shredded pork with hot chili peppers.
He Zhichu ordered a bottle of red wine and poured himself a glass.
Huo Shaoheng put down the bowl, poured a glass of red wine, raised his glass to He Zhichu and said, "I didn't thank Professor He properly for what happened last time in Barbados. Unfortunately, I'm going abroad soon and don't have time to treat guests. When I come back, I'll be with you." Let’s invite Professor He to dinner together, and we must treat Professor He with honor.”
Hearing this, Gu Nianzhi put down the spoon, looked at He Zhichu, and nodded, "Professor He, you must come when the time comes."
He Zhichu lowered his eyes at the red wine glass in his hand, raised it up, shook it, put it to his mouth and took a sip. He said without raising his head, "Let's see." After thinking for a moment, he looked at Gu Nianzhi and said: "Nianzhi, you are my assistant teacher. Have you prepared my calendar for the next month? You know better than me whether I have time or not."
As a teaching assistant, Gu Nianzhi really had to help He Zhichu assign his daily work calendar.
You need to be clear about what you will do on that day, whom you will meet, what lectures you will give, and what classes you will take. Plan your itinerary for at least two months.
Gu Nianzhi had a good memory and immediately thought about it and said, "Professor He, you are more free this month. Next month there will be a little more work. I will look at Professor He's calendar to determine the time for the treat."
"Yeah." He Zhichu responded and stopped talking. He drank red wine quietly alone. Soon the bottle of red wine was empty.
Gu Nianzhi usually felt full after drinking the soup, but today was a special situation. She was physically exhausted, so after drinking the soup, she ate two more bowls of rice.
He Zhichu: “…”
Huo Shaoheng: "..."
Gu Nianzhi quietly raised his head and met the eyes of He Zhichu and Huo Shaoheng with different shapes but the same sharp eyes.
"Uh, why are you looking at me like this?" Gu Nianzhi put down the bowl and chopsticks, "Are you going to stop people from having a good meal?"
It was like two cheetahs staring at each other with eager eyes. Their eyes were so aggressive that Gu Nianzhi felt that he couldn't hold it any longer...
After finally finishing the meal, there were not many dishes left on the table, so there was no need to pack them.
In the end, He Zhichu didn't eat anything. Huo Shaoheng got up and went to the front desk to pay the bill, but was told that He Zhichu had already paid.
He didn't say anything, turned around and returned to the private room, where he saw Gu Nianzhi talking to He Zhichu.
He Zhichu drank on an empty stomach and was already drunk, but he did not speak indiscriminately or do some weird things like other drunk people.
When he was drunk, only his eyes were particularly bright, and the sparkling peach blossom eyes doubled their lethality.
If he goes out to flirt with girls at this time, he can flirt with whomever he wants, except Gu Nianzhi...
Seeing his appearance, Gu Nianzhi worriedly said to Huo Shaoheng, "Mr. Huo, shall we send Professor He back? He can't drive like this."
"Yes." Huo Shaoheng agreed without saying a word, and walked out of the restaurant with Gu Nianzhi standing beside He Zhichu.
He Zhichu could still control himself at the beginning, but as soon as he walked out of the door of E Restaurant, he let himself go.
A man stood on the steps, refusing to go down. He looked at Gu Nianzhi and only smiled but said nothing.
Gu Nianzhi was so anxious that he was sweating profusely. He finally put him into Huo Shaoheng's car and drove him back to the Professor Building of University B.
He Zhichu's suite is on the 28th floor.
The three of them took the elevator straight to the 28th floor and finally arrived at the door of He Zhichu's suite dormitory.
"Professor He, please open the door." Gu Nianzhi pointed to the keyhole.
The suites here have two ways to open the door, using a code key or a fingerprint.
Gu Nianzhi thought that He Zhichu must have the key with him. He didn't want to ask several times, but He Zhichu at least looked at her and smiled without saying a word, but he didn't say how to open the door.
In the end, Gu Nianzhi couldn't stand it anymore and took He Zhichu's hand to scan the fingerprint lock one by one.
The door clicked and the two of them opened it.
Huo Shaoheng and Gu Nianzhi helped He Zhichu into the house and laid him down on the sofa in the living room.
Gu Nianzhi even brought a basin of warm water to He Zhichu and asked him to wipe himself.
"Okay, Nianzhi, it's okay, let's go." Seeing that it was almost done, Huo Shaoheng made a voice to take Gu Nianzhi away.
Gu Nianzhi put the towel on the edge of the basin and told her: "Professor He, you need to eat something real when you are hungry. A glass of red wine is useless."
Huo Shaoheng had already gone out, and Gu Nianzhi followed him.
As soon as she got to Huo Shaoheng's car, she pulled him and talked non-stop.
"Master Huo, will Professor He be okay?"
"Master Huo, do you think Professor He has a part-time job?"
"Master Huo, Professor He, is drinking alcohol on an empty stomach bad for your liver?"
Huo Shaoheng glanced at her and said calmly: "You are so worried, why should I send you back to take care of Professor He?"
Gu Nianzhi smiled and let go of Huo Shaoheng's hand, saying, "Just because I said this, will Mr. Huo be angry too?"
She had said it before and done a lot of stupid things, but Mr. Huo had never paid attention to it. Of course, he never said anything about her in public.
Now I actually speak with sarcasm...
Gu Nianzhi expressed that he was not used to this kind of Huo Shao.
The car turned onto the tree-lined path of the south gate and drove towards the south gate.
Gu Nianzhi blinked, "Where are you going?"
"Go to the apartment." Huo Shaoheng stepped on the accelerator and gradually increased the speed. As soon as he drove out of the south gate of B, the fine sports car roared and rushed forward.
It's a pity that this is on the Fourth Ring Road of the Imperial Capital. Even if it is a weekend, there will still be traffic jams when there should be traffic jams.
Gu Nianzhi tilted his head and leaned against the car window, looking at the long and dense motorcade outside the car, and muttered: "How long will it take?"
Huo Shaoheng looked at the map and found that there was a car accident ahead, which was why there was such a long queue.
If this road is blocked, find another way.
Thanks to the most timely mobile phone base map, they found a small road and drove over.
This path is also very close to Gu Nianzhi's duplex high-rise suite.
The two of them got out of the car, feeling better.
The two walked into the elevator hand in hand and watched the numbers on the elevator climb to the floor where Gu Nianzhi lived.
The elevator dinged and the elevator door opened. Standing at the door was Gu Nianzhi's sister Gu Yanran.
