Half past one in the afternoon.
Gu Chen was sent out of the house by his mother herself.
He rejected his mother's white pony, saying it was too low-priced and not good.
When Chen Guilan heard it, it seemed to make sense.
So I asked him to take a taxi.
However, of course Gu Chen would not be obedient, so he drove the No. 11 bus slowly towards Jinyang Town.
The meeting time was two o'clock in the afternoon, but Gu Chen decided a few minutes in the evening.
By then, people might just leave if they get impatient.
This is best and saves a lot of time.
Shiguang Afternoon Tea, a dessert hut opened in a small town.
This place is packed with guests every day. Generally, you need to make a reservation before coming here, otherwise you have to wait in front for others to come out, or else you can only take away the food.
Gu Chen strolled into the hut. It was called a hut, but it was very spacious inside.
The staff were busy back and forth, dressed like a maid cafe.
Gu Chen glanced around and immediately fixed his gaze on a round wooden table.
He forced out a smile, but it was too vulgar without 99 bright red roses.
A good man should be straightforward.
Gu Chen came to the girl's side and asked, "Hello, your name is Li Wei, right?"
The girl heard the sound and looked back.
To be honest, the girl in front of me is much prettier than in the photo.
The powder on her face was evenly applied, and there was no sense of disharmony at all.
"Gu Chen?" Li Wei asked.
"Um."
Gu Chen smiled and sat across from her carelessly.
"What do you want to drink?" Li Wei asked with a smile.
"I'll do anything, just St. Helena coffee," he said casually.
Li Wei paused for a moment and smiled sweetly: "I didn't expect you to be quite tasteful."
This time it was Gu Chen's turn to be stunned.
"What's tasteful? We've never tasted this before. We just saw on TV that it's very expensive." Gu Chen thought to himself.
Afterwards, a cup of St. Helena coffee and a cup of hot milk were served by the lovely young lady.
Gu Chen felt that it was not enough and ordered a few more desserts.
Regardless of what Li Wei thought, she just started eating.
Li Wei also drank milk silently, and both of them remained silent.
Suddenly, Li Wei broke the dull atmosphere.
"Tell me about yourself, I..."
Seeing this, Gu Chen hurriedly interrupted her and said quickly: "Let me talk about my situation first. I don't have a car, I don't have a house, I have no savings and my life is short. Are you sure you want to date me?"
"By the way, here is my physical examination report, you can take a look."
After finishing speaking, Gu Chen handed her the physical examination report from a few months ago on his mobile phone.
"Hehehe!"
Li Wei glanced at the mobile phone he handed over and didn't say anything. Instead, she covered her mouth and kept laughing.
"Why are you laughing?" Gu Chen frowned slightly, fully demonstrating his displeasure.
"Haha, actually you don't have to be like this. I'm here to tell you one thing, we are not suitable."
Gu Chen was surprised and his expression returned to normal.
He did not ask questions, but Li Wei continued: "Actually, I was forced to come here by my family..."
After hearing his explanation, Gu Chen suddenly understood and felt happy.
It turns out that Li Wei is in a similar situation to him. The difference is that she has her own lover, but her family doesn't know about it.
"I see, then I won't pretend anymore."
The smile returned to Gu Chen's face, and his movements became more comfortable.
However, Li Wei suddenly said: "Actually, you are quite handsome. How about we give it a try."
Gu Chen paused again, and the cake he was poking at stopped in mid-air.
"Try?" Gu Chen asked her with a smile.
Li Wei's smile froze, and she immediately chuckled: "No, no, I was joking."
Gu Chen continued to eat the cake. How could he not know it was a joke.
"By the way, is your physical examination report just now true?" Li Wei suddenly asked again.
Although she didn't look carefully just now, she still saw a few words accidentally.
She didn't understand data arrows, but she still recognized the words "highly malignant".
"Fake." Gu Chen replied firmly.
If they had just met, they might have said it was true, but at this time, neither of them had any intention of each other.
Besides, it's true. How can I explain it if it hits my mother's ears?
The two of them didn't talk about anything else. They just asked and answered each other normally, and I asked and you answered again, just like ordinary friends.
In the end, they unified their rhetoric, but neither of them liked each other.
"I'll take this meal."
Gu Chen stood in front of the cashier with her, turned on his phone and scanned the money.
This simple afternoon tea cost him nearly 5,000 yuan.
If it had been done before, I would have probably vomited three liters of blood.
He pointed out the expensive items as soon as he arrived. He originally planned to urinate in the middle and run away, leaving Li Wei to pay, which would give her a very bad impression.
Who knew it would turn out like this in the future? You can't lose your manliness like this.
"Thank you for the afternoon tea!"
Li Wei responded with a smile, and then the two said goodbye to each other.
Gu Chen also took off his suit, held it in his hand, and trotted back to Gujiagou.
"Mom, I'm back."
Gu Chen shouted, took a large glass of cold water and drank it.
He had choked in the refreshment room just now. He was thinking how delicious the expensive coffee would be, but it turned out to be the same and even more painful.
Or maybe he just doesn't have enough taste and can't get used to the rich people's rare stuff.
"Son, how are you doing? Are you done yet?"
Chen Guilan walked out of the kitchen, and a scent of aroma floated into Gu Chen's nose.
"Old hen stewed tonic?" Gu Chen asked.
"Don't worry about this for now. Where is my daughter-in-law?"
Chen Guilan looked around and found no one except her eldest son.
Chen Guilan's smile gradually faded, and she asked with a knife in her eyes: "Where is Li Wei?"
"Mom, we are not suitable."
As soon as Gu Chen finished speaking, Chen Guilan immediately bent down and took out the old bamboo stick that had been treasured for more than ten years under the coffee table.
"Mom, Mom, listen to my explanation!" Gu Chen waved his hand in front of him.
"Tell me what's going on. If you can't tell me, I'll let you see why the flowers are so red."
Later, Gu Chen came up with the rhetoric.
Although it doesn't work very well, it saves me a meal of fried pork with bamboo shoots.
"It's not your share of the hens at night, so reflect on yourself." Chen Guilan returned to the kitchen angrily.
She originally thought that her son could bring people back to get to know him.
The result was good. They separated wherever they met. The two of them just didn't stay for half an hour.
Gu Chen licked his face with a smile and did not answer, otherwise his mother would scold him again.
My mother is a sharp-tongued woman, and Gu Chen managed to finish most of the big pot of old hens at night.
Chen Guilan also asked a few questions from time to time, nothing more than whether there was enough to eat and if it was not enough to cook some noodles for herself.
After dinner, the family of three sat on the sofa and watched TV, showing a movie about the Eight Years of Anti-Japanese War.
Of course, only my father watched it with gusto, while my mother and I were both watching the short videos.
"Mom, Dad, I have something to tell you." Gu Chen suddenly spoke.
Chen Guilan was still looking at the phone with a smile, and her father was also staring at the TV.
Gu Chen raised his head and took a look. His mother was watching a short play similar to that of a wealthy daughter. It was a wonderful moment.
Afterwards, Gu Chen ignored him and told him in detail about how he saved the daughter of the Yang family and gave him a house afterwards.
Of course, the 10 million is not mentioned. After all, I still have to buy medicine, and there is no telling whether it will be enough.
But if his parents needed it, he would give it all without hesitation.
After hearing this, my father and mother quickly accepted this fact. After all, this was what their son had sacrificed his life for, so it should be taken for granted.
"Xiaochen, how big is the house? Does it need decoration? Your dad and I still have some money." Gu Changjiang said.
"Dad, that house is okay. No decoration is needed. You can live in it as soon as you move in."
"Well, that's not bad."
Finally, Gu Chen wanted to take his mother and father to see the new house.
But my father said he had to go to work and would not go for the time being.
And my mother also has to take care of the livestock and cook dinner for my father who is off work, which also postpones the time to look at the new house.
Gu Chen is not in a hurry, there will come a time.
