When Zhou Ya saw Gu Rui arriving, she hurriedly stood up and said, "Hello, Gu Rui, thank you for coming over. Let me introduce you to them. These are my classmates Li Hong and Su Qing. You may have seen them before."
Gu Rui and the three of them nodded slightly, "Hello, um! I've met them, but I haven't spoken to them."
"Haha, we are all from the same class, so I must be familiar with you. Sit down, you haven't had dinner yet. You can order whatever you want. We are treating you today."
Gu Rui was not polite. He sat down directly and took the menu from the table. He glanced at it and frowned. There was no meat. They were all nutritious fruit and vegetable salads, soups, pastries. Fortunately, there were also noodles, fried rice, and pottery. The teacher consumes a lot of energy and usually eats a lot.
Who would come to such an elegant place like a teahouse to eat and drink? They just drink tea, chat, and eat some refreshments.
Su Qing and the other three have already ordered, and are waiting for Gu Rui to choose what to eat and serve together.
The waiter first gave Gu Rui a cup of tea and started waiting for the guests to order.
Gu Rui ordered two portions of everything that could be eaten, otherwise it wouldn't be enough. Because he was born into a wealthy family, he didn't think the food was expensive. Su Qing and the other three didn't change their expressions. They just wanted to treat each other to dinner. The tea house has an elegant environment, not many choices, and mainly serves refreshments. It is suitable for talking about things, but not suitable for treating guests to dinner.
Su Qing and the others chose this place mainly because they wanted to be clean and didn't want to be disturbed, but eating was secondary.
Gu Rui doesn't ask for gifts, as long as he can eat enough. What he wants to know most is, what does Zhou Ya want to see him for?
"Zhou Ya, I was quite surprised when I saw the message you sent. I didn't expect you to come to me for something. The last time we sat together for dinner was more than four years ago. At that time, we were still young and ignorant. We were five years old in the college. In this year, everyone has matured a lot and is completely different from back then.”
Zhou Ya smiled and said: "Yes, of course you have matured. Five years of college career is not in vain. I heard that you are a famous figure in the weapon refining department. How about next year's college competition? Are you going to participate?"
Gu Rui nodded, "Yeah, so I'm very busy during this period. I often use various materials to refine different items. Practice more and try to improve your refining level."
Zhou Ya glanced at Su Qing, who nodded, and then she took out the dagger from the storage container, "Gu Rui, what do you think of the refining technique of this dagger?"
Gu Rui is a weapon refiner, and the items he refines are magical weapons after all. What's so good about an ordinary dagger?
But when Gu Rui picked up the dagger on the table, the original indifference in his eyes turned into surprise. This dagger looked inconspicuous, but its sharpness and texture were the best, especially when it was made from an ordinary metal. It is comparable to the alloy. Even if he has not tested it, he can tell from his more than ten years of experience in refining this dagger that the refining method of this dagger is unique.
The impurities in the metal have been completely removed, doubling the original density of the metal, which is very rare. You must know that only through the continuous hammering and forging of various weapon-making materials by the metal-making master can the density be changed and become closer and closer. Increase the hardness and make it strong. No matter what item is refined, it must be strong and unbreakable as the main criterion.
With this simple dagger, Gu Rui used his superpower to detect several places with different reactions. He held the dagger firmly and asked impatiently: "Did you refine this dagger?"
Zhou Ya shook her head, "How about the refining technique? Can you still take a fancy to it?"
Gu Rui nodded hurriedly, "Although this dagger looks simple at first glance and looks like the work of a beginner, the refining technique is very sophisticated. I think it must be a secret weapon refining technique passed down from ancient times."
Zhou Ya felt a little incredible when she heard that Gu Rui admired Su Qing's refining dagger so much. How could he see it? Why couldn't he?
"Gu Rui, don't you think about learning this secret refining technique?"
Gu Rui's expression turned pale, but he was extremely shocked. Each of these weapon refining techniques passed down from ancient times is the ancestral secret technique of each family. How could it be easily passed on to the outside world.
"Zhou Ya, are you kidding? You dare to reveal the ancestral secret technique without the family's consent. You are very courageous."
Zhou Ya smiled and said: "We don't have a secret book for refining weapons at home, otherwise I would take the spiritual plant science test? My friend made this dagger. She has been in some trouble recently. I hope you can help solve it. The refining method is as follows remuneration."
Gu Rui took a deep breath. It was such a big deal. It seemed that what the other party asked for was very difficult. Should he agree?
Gu Rui asked cautiously: "Can I know if the other party has any difficulties and needs my help?"
But Zhou Ya said: "Let's eat first and continue talking after eating. We are all hungry."
Zhou Ya was afraid that Gu Rui would get angry after hearing that he wanted him to help pretend to be Su Qing's boyfriend, so she asked him to eat first and chat with them to deepen their sense of familiarity, so that Gu Rui's mood could relax and he wouldn't say anything bluntly directly. Go out and let him go away in anger regardless of his feelings. He has taken the bait anyway. He didn't expect Qingqing's refining technique to really make Gu Rui's heart flutter.
Just then the waiter knocked on the door and came in to start serving the food. They started eating without saying anything. Gu Rui was anxious when he saw that Zhou Ya didn't tell him what he needed to do. , simply picked up the bowl and started eating Xilihulu.
The three girls eat very delicately. Gu Rui is used to eating quickly. It’s not that he doesn’t understand table manners, he just doesn’t want to abide by them. There are so many things to pay attention to when eating. Eat before eating. He will also abide by the table on certain occasions. It's polite, it's not necessary in front of classmates. After all, we have been training together in the military, and we have seen many embarrassing times. It is just a meal, there is no need to be particular.
Gu Rui ate very quickly. He had finished eating. Su Qing and the other two were still eating slowly. They were definitely not in a hurry. Anyway, they whetted Gu Rui's appetite. As long as he didn't get angry, their There is a door to things.
Gu Rui really wants to know what kind of help the other party wants him to do. If it is not difficult, he will agree. After all, it is rare to learn a new method of refining weapons. Anyone who has such a secret skill will never take it. If someone comes out to trade, they will definitely say that person is a prodigal.
Su Qing and Zhou Ya finally finished eating, asked the waiter to remove the cups and plates, and asked for another pot of tea, before the four of them officially started talking.
Zhou Ya knew that Su Qing's weapon refining techniques were valuable, so she knew it, and it was not that difficult to speak.
She organized her words before saying: "Gu Rui, although we don't have much contact, I know you are a very good person, so I asked you for help. I'm afraid that other people's lax remarks will spread and affect me. Reputation among classmates.”
Gu Rui: "Okay, you don't need to praise me so much, just say what you want. If I can help, I will never refuse. I am really interested in that kind of weapon refining method."
When Zhou Ya saw what was going on, she could only get out of it and pointed at Su Qing, "You know Qingqing, the youngest student in our class. He was admitted to the academy at the age of 12. He has been talked about by many people."
Gu Rui nodded and said: "I know, even if they don't know Su Qing, many people have heard of the Lingzhi girl."
Zhou Ya continued: "The dagger was made by Su Qing when she was in the intermediate class, and she needs your help."
Gu Rui was so shocked that he almost overturned the dining table and shouted, "What? Was that dagger made by Su Qing?"
Students at Qinglan College have generally heard of the girl from the Spiritual Plant Department, and all the classmates in Su Qing’s class know her. After all, when the Qinglian Sect’s secret realm was opened, Su Qing and Meng Hang were the first batch of people to enter. I was deeply impressed by what I saw with my own eyes. Later I learned about some of Su Qing's deeds, and was even more astounded when she took the exam for Tsinglan College at such a young age.
