He blinked, giggled and said:
"Not even anything that looks like peanuts."
Ning Li was stunned.
Why does the Gu family have such strange rules
She subconsciously looked at Gu Tinglan.
I heard him mention it before, saying that a friend is also allergic to peanuts, but now it seems that... that friend of his is actually related to the Gu family
Even if you don't like to eat peanuts, you won't be able to do this.
Gu Tinglan didn't seem to intend to say much, took the menu and handed it to Ning Li, and said with a smile:
"See what you want to eat."
Seeing his attitude, Ning Li didn't ask any more questions, and was about to pick it up when a slender and graceful hand stretched out beside him.
Lu Huaihe took the menu from Gu Tinglan and opened it with a calm expression.
He ordered a few dishes, all according to Ning Li's taste.
After living together for so long, he knows best what Ning Li likes to eat and what he doesn't like to eat.
After ordering, I ordered two more glasses of iced strawberry juice.
Gu Siyang quickly said:
"Me! And me! Order me a drink too—"
Lu Huaiyu handed over the menu and said softly:
"Order yourself."
Gu Siyang: "."
Gu Tinglan watched from the side and couldn't help laughing.
Lu Huai and this person really are.
Gu Siyang was ruthlessly rejected, so he could only honestly reorder:
"Uncle, what do you want to drink? Is it peach juice?"
Gu Tinglan nodded.
Gu Siyang said to the waiter:
"Two more glasses of peach juice!"
The waiter obliged and left quickly.
Ning Li was a little surprised, she thought Gu Siyang and Gu Tinglan would order lemon juice or something.
Peach juice. It really doesn't go well with these two young masters of the Gu family.
As if aware of her gaze, Gu Siyang raised his eyes and looked over:
"What's wrong, Ning Li?"
Ning Li paused, the corners of her lips curved slightly.
"It's nothing, I just didn't expect you to drink peach juice."
Gu Siyang said carelessly:
"Damn, what are you talking about? Of course it's because my uncle likes peach juice! I'm fine, I'm used to it!"
Lu Huaiyu looked at Gu Tinglan, raising his eyebrows slightly.
Ning Li was also taken aback, inexplicably feeling that Gu Siyang's words were subtle.
It’s okay for Gu Tinglan to like peach juice, but Gu Siyang said he’s used to it
"I heard you applied for Xijing University?"
Gu Tinglan interrupted Gu Siyang and changed the subject.
Ning Li nodded.
Juice comes quickly.
Gu Siyang bit the straw and asked:
"Hey, by the way, Ning Li, what major did you apply for?"
"Department of Astronomy."
Gu Siyang was startled, choked immediately, tilted his head and coughed violently.
"Heaven-cough-astronomy-cough cough-cough-astronomy department!?"
Almost at the same time, the gentle smile on Gu Tinglan's face faded, and his expression became much lighter.
Sensing the abnormal reaction of the two, Ning Li frowned slightly.
"What's wrong? Is there a problem?"
Gu Siyang managed to calm down, his face flushed.
"You, what's wrong with you, why do you want to report this?"
Ning Li was even more puzzled, and asked:
"Is this major not good?"
Gu Siyang was choked by her question, and didn't know how to answer for a while.
After holding back for a long time, he said in a loud voice:
"No, but, but I think this is normal anyway."
He faltered, and didn't say anything wrong for a long time.
But his expression really said: He has a lot of opinions on this profession.
"Xijing University has many better majors, such as finance, economics and management, and law. If you really want to do physics, there are many other choices."
Gu Tinglan leaned back on the chair, her expression had returned to her usual gentleness, but the elegant smile on the corners of her eyes and brows had completely dissipated.
"Whether it is in terms of employment prospects or other things, the Department of Astronomy has no advantages. Your score is so high—why choose the Department of Astronomy."
What he said was the truth.
The threshold for the astronomy department is high, the research content is boring, and the future career options are also very narrow.
Ning Li can definitely choose a better one.
Anyway, based on her grades, Xijing University's majors are chosen randomly.
Who knew she would choose this one in the end.
"she likes."
Lu Huai raised his eyelids slightly, and said softly,
"This is enough."
There is no need to consider other things, her likes and wishes will always come first.
Only this one reason is enough.
There was a moment of silence at the dining table, as if caught in a subtle confrontation.
But it was only for a moment, Gu Tinglan soon laughed.
"Well, yes. Since it was Ning Li's choice, it's fine."
His tone and expression returned to that of a gentle and gentle nobleman, as if nothing had happened just now.
Gu Siyang shrank his neck, wishing he could escape on the spot.
What is there on earth that he can't think of, he wants to ask this question!
Department of Astronomy!
Why did Ning Li apply to the Department of Astronomy!
Fortunately, the waiter quickly started to serve the dishes, and the little episode just now was quietly uncovered.
After a meal, Ning Li asked:
"Where does Doctor Gu want to go this afternoon?"
Chunfeng Road is basically finished shopping, just looking at Gu Tinglan's meaning.
Gu Tinglan thought for a moment, then said with a smile:
"Just go around, or go to places you are more familiar with. After all, you are from Lincheng. Sometimes it is better to go to the streets than to go to scenic spots."
If you want to experience the breath of life here, such a place seems to be more suitable.
Ning Li probably guessed what he meant, although she didn't quite understand why he was so obsessed with Lincheng, she still agreed.
She thought about it.
"Liba Lane, which is two streets away from here, is an old street in Lincheng. If Dr. Gu wants to go, he can go there."
Gu Tinglan laughed and said:
"You are a tour guide, of course I will listen to you."
Lu Huaiyu glanced outside, bowed his head and said to Ning Li:
"I'm going out."
Ning Li was puzzled, but still nodded.
Lu Huai stood up.
After about ten minutes, he came back with an extra—
A parasol.
"Let's go."
he said.
The weather in Lincheng is hot and dry in July, especially in the afternoon when the sun is still too bright and warm.
A group of people walked out of Chunfeng Road and went to Liba Lane.
The streets here have not been covered by plane trees for decades. Walking on the road, even the ground is hot.
Lu Huaiyu stood beside Ning Li, holding an umbrella for her, casting a shade of shade on her.
Gu Siyang looked sad:
"Why is there no place to enjoy the shade on this road? It's too hot!"
Ning Li explained:
"This place was renovated a few years ago, and so is the greenery."
So those small saplings are simply not enough to see.
Gu Siyang couldn't help muttering:
"Why does Second Young Master Lu seem to be familiar with this place?"
Before coming out, Lu Huaiyu went to buy a sunshade, apparently already aware of the situation here.
Hearing this, Gu Tinglan glanced at Lu Huaiyu.
Lu Huai's expression remained the same:
"Been here before."
Ning Li tilted her head and raised her face slightly:
"Second brother, have you been to Fence Lane?"
Generally, foreigners don't pass this place.
The corners of Lu Huai and his lips curved slightly, and he said "um".
Not just Hedge Lane.
He walked through every street in Lincheng.
