After hanging up the phone, Gu Benmo poured a cup of tea for Su Yi. She took it in her hand and said, "Thank you."
Gu Benmo smiled and handed over another menu, "See what you want to eat? You order the dishes."
After he said that, Su Yi did not refuse. He took the huge menu and flipped through it. "How much roasted pigeon can each of you eat?"
"I can eat two." Lu Zhan answered her. He has always had a good appetite.
"So many, then after you finish eating the roast pigeon, can you still have the roast duck?"
"It's okay, don't worry, I can eat it."
"Okay." Su Yi nodded and continued to browse the menu. Then he ordered a few dishes at random and handed the menu to Mu Nanxi who had been wanting to see the menu and order. He turned around and talked to Gu Benmo, "Benmo, I want to tell you something."
"What?" Gu Benmo tilted his head slightly, his expression calm.
"After I finish my meal, I want to take Juesen with me and bring him back to where I live."
"Are you taking it back to your home?"
Su Yi thought about it and felt it was not easy to tell the truth, so he said vaguely: "Yeah."
"Okay, then I'll take you back after dinner."
"No, no, you can just take me to your house. I drove here by myself. I can just bring Juesen with me when I go back to your house to pick up the car."
Gu Benmo had no doubts at all, "Okay, but where do you live now? What are you busy with? Why didn't you come to pick us up last night?"
"I'm just busy with some things at home." Su Yi made up an excuse.
"How is your grandfather?" Gu Benmo knew that her grandfather was in the hospital. She had come back early to visit her grandfather.
"It's OK, but I'm a lot thinner than before."
"Well, when you have time one day, take me to see him. When I was a child, I met your grandfather, but he may not remember me."
Su Yi was confused, and smiled awkwardly, "Ben Mo, you are wrong. The grandpa I am talking about now is my maternal grandfather, not my grandfather."
Gu Benmo was slightly stunned for a moment, then he pursed his lips and smiled, "Sorry."
"It's okay. We are still talking to each other. Why are you still being polite? By the way, let me ask you something. How is the wedding planning company we agreed to open going?"
"It's already open." Gu Benmo's sparkling eyes swept across her face, with an indeterminate smile, "Didn't I say before that I would give you a surprise? I've already done it. Are you surprised?"
Su Yi was really surprised, but not that happy. "When did this happen? Why didn't you tell me?"
"If I told you in advance, it wouldn't be a surprise."
"But it's not right to keep me in the dark."
"This is a birthday present for you." Gu Benmo's cynical eyes fell on her and became calm, "Yi, do you like it?"
"What? My birthday isn't here yet. Besides, this company was planned by a few of us together. How did it become my birthday gift? Ben Mo, are you kidding me? Tell me, who did you make a bet with to trick me?"
"This is true." Gu Benmo stared at her, his voice quiet and solemn, "Because we know you have this sentiment, so a few of us have planned this gift and want to give it to you before your birthday. Now it is August 27th, and your birthday is in two days. We all came back before your birthday on purpose, with the purpose of giving you this gift and celebrating your birthday."
Su Yi didn't say anything, her eyes were hot, and she said awkwardly: "What are you doing? You make the atmosphere so sour."
In fact, she was very touched, but she didn't know how to express it, so she could only change the subject with a joking attitude.
"We are all family." Gu Benmo held her hand and said softly.
Su Yi nodded and looked at the other people at the table. Everyone was looking at her and smiling brightly.
Yes, during the few years abroad, they depended on each other and now have developed a relationship that goes beyond friendship and is almost like a family.
"So... you own this company?"
"Well, I invest and you develop." Gu Benmo paused and pointed to the other people at the table, "And the three of them are your subordinates, you can command them at will."
Mu Nanxi was the first to object and threw the napkin in his hand, "Damn it, are you afraid that others won't see that you are biased? Do you have to go to such extremes? Besides, the three of us are an old team. We would follow her for free without you telling us."
Gu Benmo caught the napkin he threw over and smiled, "Don't forget who helped you out when you spoke in a non-standard English accent when you ordered food in the cafeteria of a British school for the first time."
Su Yi said: "Then don't forget who helped you out when you ordered food for the first time."
This was said to Gu Benmo.
Gu Benmo touched his beautiful nose and nodded, "Of course, I will never forget you. You are my benefactor..."
All hilarious.
At this moment, the door of the private room was opened, and the dignified Song Yanan and the heroic Mu Ziyin walked in. When Mu Ziyin saw Su Yizai, he squeezed to her side, blocked Gu Benmo, and at the same time, secretly opened the call connection with his third brother.
As soon as the call was connected, Mu Ziyin immediately smiled and said to Su Yi: "Sister Su Yi, you are here too."
"Yes, you are here too." Su Yi smiled and pushed away his head, "Don't put your head too close to me, I'm not used to it."
Mu Ziyin frowned, "How can you be like this? You forget your old love when you have a new one."
The whole table said at the same time: "Puff!"
Mu Nanxi couldn't help but ask: "My friend, who is he?"
Gu Benmo also looked at Mu Ziyin with extremely cold eyes.
Mu Ziyin was a man who spoke in a very shocking way. When he heard Mu Nanxi's question, he said to him arrogantly, "I have slept with Sister Su Yi. Who do you think I am?"
"Puff!" Lu Zhan and Yan Tong spat out the tea in their mouths.
Hearing this, Gu Benmo's face darkened.
Song Yanan, on the other hand, was much calmer, and looked like he was about to laugh but didn't.
Finally, it was Su Yi who spoke up, "Hey, don't listen to his nonsense. He is a man who speaks without restraint and likes to make jokes."
"Tsk! That's not what you said in bed last night." Mu Ziyin continued.
Su Yi: “…”
His temple ached slightly. Su Yi looked at him and said, "You're itching again, aren't you? Are you trying to tease me on purpose?"
"What they say is true."
"You go..." Su Yi stopped the last word of death in time. She didn't want to curse anyone anymore, so she changed it to, "Eat a banana."
"..." Mu Ziyin pouted, "No, I don't want to eat bananas, I want to eat you."
"Fuck you." Su Yi slapped him on the back of his head. "Stop joking around. These are all my friends. If they misunderstand me, I'll be mad at you."
"Okay." After hearing what she said, Mu Ziyin straightened his shirt and drank a cup of tea. "By the way, Sister Su Yi, who are these people?"
"These are Gu Benmo, Mu Nanxi, Yan Tong, and Lu Zhan. They are all members of our research team."
"Oh? Are they all members of the team that researched AI with you?"
"Yes."
Mu Ziyin nodded with interest, stood up, and shook hands with them one by one, "Hello everyone, I am Mu Ziyin."
"Mu Ziyin?" Gu Benmo chewed on these three words and raised his eyes, "The creator of Jinwei Software?"
"Yes." Mu Ziyin smiled and looked at him, "You are Gu Benmo, the prince of Hongsen Yamamoto Group, right?"
"It's me." Gu Benmo shook hands with him with a smile and started bragging about business.
From their conversation, Su Yi learned that Gu Benmo's grandfather was the Chief Chinese Detective in the 1950s and 1960s, and worked in XG International City. Although nowadays, the position of a detective is just that of a police chief, but at that time, the position of the Chief Chinese Detective was indeed supreme, because the Chinese people generally had a low status at that time, especially in government departments, and there were almost no Chinese people in slightly higher positions. Therefore, the entire police system at that time could be said to be the largest underworld organization. They were called police, but they were more underworld than the underworld.
The Chief Chinese Detective, while making money continuously, also took advantage of the stock market era of shark fin rice soup to plunder investors' money. During the subsequent anti-corruption investigation, he successfully immigrated to Country M and became a citizen of Country M. With the wealth of half of XG city, he was no longer subject to the control of the country.
Later, Gu Benmo's father grew up and returned to the capital of China to develop a whitewashing business. The group looked clean and formal on the surface, but his family was actually involved in the underworld, so many things were both black and white.
The meal was just a bit of chatting and laughing.
When they returned, it was already 3:30 in the afternoon. Song Yanan asked Su Yi, "Do you want me to take you back?"
"No, I'm going back with Ben Mo. The car is at his house. I'll go get it."
"Well, be careful on the road."
"You too." Su Yi waved to Song Yan'an, got into Gu Benmo's car, and sat in the passenger seat.
Gu Benmo's beautiful hands were on the steering wheel, reminding her, "Don't buckle your seat belt yet."
"Oh." Su Yi responded. Just as she was about to fasten her seat belt, Gu Benmo leaned over and helped her fasten the seat belt.
Su Yi blinked and said nothing.
The car started slowly.
"Who was that man just now?" Gu Benmo was driving the car, his profile looking clean and handsome.
