Chapter 245: Chapter 245: An Unexpected Encounter at the Restaurant (1)
And as soon as she walked away, Qin Sijue immediately took out his cell phone and turned on the location tracking!
Because they had agreed to meet at 11 A.M., Gu Qiangwei drove slower than usual, and with the heavier weekend traffic, it took her nearly fifty minutes to reach the designated restaurant.
‘Musy Western Restaurant’ was a place she had never been to before, and upon arrival, she realized it was a high-end restaurant.
Standing at the doorway, she looked up at the prominently displayed sign, and thinking about the person she was about to meet, Gu Qiangwei felt a small surge of anticipation.
She wondered what the ‘Xianggu’ she was about to meet in real life would be like.
She walked into the restaurant at an unhurried pace, entering through the large doors.
Just as she pushed open the glass door, her cell phone in her bag suddenly started ringing.
She frowned slightly and bent her head to reach into her bag for the ringing phone while she walked.
She had just taken it into her hand and had not seen the caller ID when suddenly, she was bumped into heavily and nearly lost her balance. Fortunately, a strong hand swiftly caught hold of her!
But her phone was not so lucky and fell to the ground with a ‘thud’!
A deep and husky voice sounded from above, a man’s voice.
Gu Qiangwei glanced at her fallen phone, then at the middle-aged man who had steadied her, and realized that it must have been her who accidentally bumped into him while looking down at her phone.
She gave a slight smile, obviously apologetic, “I’m fine, thank you.”
She politely expressed her gratitude and then bent down to pick up her phone from the ground.
As she stood up, she heard a somewhat familiar voice.
When she looked up, the familiar face of a middle-aged woman came into view.
Nangong Mingchuan turned his head and gave Tang Yuyan a gentle and shallow smile, his affection clearly visible in his eyes, “Nothing.”
Tang Yuyan turned her head to see the familiar Gu Qiangwei, and couldn’t help but be surprised.
She spoke softly with a smile, although they had met only once, her impression of this girl was strong.
Her initiative in greeting Gu Qiangwei took her by surprise, and after pausing for two seconds, Gu Qiangwei responded with a polite smile.
“Do you two know each other?”
Nangong Mingchuan turned his head to look at his wife.
Tang Yuyan smiled warmly, her noble appearance felt very approachable.
“Last time at the library, it was this girl who willingly gave up the book I liked to me.”
At that time, ‘Conspiracy and Love’ was the only copy remaining, and it surprised her that this girl voluntarily gave the book to her.
Nangong Mingchuan responded and turned his head to glance at the girl in front of him.
He wasn’t sure if it was his imagination, but he thought there was a slight resemblance between the features of the girl and his wife, Tang Yuyan.
However, Tang Yuyan herself did not seem to notice.
But in this world, there are many similar-looking people, so perhaps it wasn’t strange.
“Are you here for a meal too?” Seeing her for the second time, Tang Yuyan felt less of a stranger towards her.
Gu Qiangwei nodded, just about to say she was meeting a friend there, but before she could speak, her phone rang again.
She nodded to the two of them and then picked up the call.
It was Xianggu calling.
“My dear, I’m really sorry, are you already at the restaurant?”
Gu Qiangwei paused, “Yes, what’s wrong?”
“I, I can’t make it,” Xianggu said with an apologetic face.
On her way to the restaurant, she had been involved in a traffic accident and was currently at the police station.
But to keep Gu Qiangwei from worrying, she did not disclose the reason.
“It’s no problem, we can meet another time.”
