Chapter 313: Eating Together
“What do you mean by finding myself a rich man?”
Caught between laughter and tears, Gu Qingjiu reached out a hand to hit Gu Qingmo.
This pair of siblings talked without any inhibitions.
Gu Qingmo let out a peal of cheerful laughter, before putting one arm around Gu Qingjiu’s shoulder and leaving with her.
It would take them around half an hour to get to Sanders Garden from where they were, and by then the Chief Instructor would more or less have reached too.
When they got to Sanders Garden, Gu Qingmo told the waiter the suite number He Niancheng told Gu Qingjiu.
Upon hearing the suite number, the waiter instantly brought them inside in a respectful manner.
But Gu Qingmo looked like he knew his way around the place.
This piqued Gu Qingjiu’s curiosity. “Brother, is this not your first time here?’
Gu Qingmo froze, before saying awkwardly, “I came here by chance before.”
Gu Qingjiu got even more curious.
She knew her own brother well.
If Sanders Garden was a posh place, knowing her older brother’s spending patterns, even if he could afford to come to such a place once or twice, he absolutely wouldn’t do so.
And now, he was saying he had been to this place?
Gu Qingjiu felt it was strange. “Did you come here with your roommates?”
Gu Qingmo responded blandly. “Mm.”
This made Gu Qingjiu feel all the more that there was a problem.
But looking at Gu Qingmo’s expression, it was clear that he wasn’t willing to speak about this. Hence, she simply left it at that.
The two of them entered the suite. Shortly after, He Niancheng came together with Huo Yingcheng.
Sanders Garden was indeed a posh restaurant. At least from the exquisite interior decor, Gu Qingjiu felt that there was a low key luxurious vibe as compared to the five-star hotels in Dayi City and North City.
When He Niancheng and Huo Yingcheng came into the room, they gave off a charming glow under the warm-toned lighting from the chandelier.
He Niancheng’s style was casual that evening—he wore a light-colored long coat that made his body appear long and slim.
There was a similar vibe between his elegant face and the faint sandalwood scent in the room.
Next to him, Huo Yingcheng wore a simple denim shirt, which made him look way more casual than He Niancheng.
“Aye, Qingjiu’s older brother, how do you do?”
Huo Yingcheng, who came in first, instantly smiled and extended a hand to shake Gu Qingmo’s at the sight of him.
Gu Qingmo, too, hurriedly got up to shake his hand. “Hello, hello.”
Compared to Huo Yingcheng, Gu Qingmo still appeared a little too tender. After all, Huo Yingcheng was the sort of man who went through the rough military.
Although the three of them appeared similar in ages, Gu Qingmo gave off the vibe of someone inexperienced in the society.
Unlike He Niancheng and Huo Yingcheng, who both exuded a mature vibe.
Gu Qingjiu’s eyes were staring at He Niancheng.
He Niancheng naturally went to Gu Qingjiu’s side, before nodding slightly at Gu Qingmo. “Hello.”
Since they had met previously, they weren’t as formal with each other this time around.
Gu Qingmo looked towards He Niancheng and realized that although this man bore a cold countenance, he was unfathomable. It did not even allow one to detect the slightest emotion from his face.
One look and it was easy to see that he was a scheming man.
But he was still irresistibly handsome nonetheless.
Even as a man, Gu Qingmo couldn’t help but marvel at him.
This younger sister of his was truly god damn lucky.
“My brother is like that, don’t mind him.”
Huo Yingcheng sat down with a chuckle, helping to ease up the atmosphere.
When he was outside, he would sometimes address He Niancheng as ‘Brother.’
But ever since she heard him address He Niancheng as ‘Major-general,’ Gu Qingjiu felt that the relationship between the two of them wasn’t so simple.
