Chapter 128.2: 友人
[Friends]
As the treasurer saw this situation, naturally needed to go up and meditate, but he seemed to be concerned about something, turned his head first, and looked at Chen Xing beside him. He seemed to be asking for his opinion.
Chen Xing received the treasurer’s gaze, not very concerned about it, waved his hand and whispered: “Since it is a restaurant, naturally everything related to serving the guests is an essential prerequisite, you go to ask what’s going on, I’ll wait for you here.”
“Yes.” The shopkeeper answered with a low voice, then raised a smiling face and walked over in the direction of Gong Zi.
After the shopkeeper walked towards Gong Zi and exchanged a few words, it was not known what was said between the two, only to see the two walking towards Chen Xing one after the other.
Upon seeing this situation, Chen Xing will guess in his heart that this Gong Zi is not here to talk about cooperation, or have something to ask for.
Who knows that Gong Zi came to Chen Xing, saluted toward Chen Xing, followed by a courteous saying: “This is my husband, my name is Zhao Huan, Gu Lang’s old friend. This time I came here just to meet him, to talk to him about old times, I hope you will show me the way.”
Hearing Zhao Huan’s self introduction, Chen Xing looked at his figure and saw that his face was like a crown of jade (live in luxury). He looked like a gentleman in fine clothes, so there must be no need for him to lie. Since they were Gu Lang’s old friends, Chen Xing thought that there was no harm in letting them meet.
Therefore, Chen Xing instructed the waiter beside him, let him bring people up and Gu Lang to talk about old times, he went to the kitchen as usual to see. After all, relative to their old friends, he is just a stranger, so when they go up, they could not talk well.
Hearing Chen Xing’s arrangement, Zhao Huan did not know for what purpose, looked deeply at Chen Xing, and then saluted again and followed the waiter up stairs.
Chen Xing only felt that he looked at his somewhat inexplicable glance, with a lot of indescribable things, like a sigh and like a sigh of relief, but also with some kind of indescribable confusion. The only thing that can make Chen Xing sure is that the man looked at him, in the eyes without malice.
After it was clear that he had no malice towards himself, Chen Xing also put this matter to the back of his mind, towards the shopkeeper beside him, he commanded a word, the two of them went together towards the direction of the back kitchen.
Chen Xing also thought to send someone later to ask Gu Lang, his friends and not to eat with them. If his friends stayed to eat, he had to prepare a little more food, not to slow down the guests who came from afar.
Chen Xing went to the back kitchen, in the eyes of the people in fear, first checked the hygiene of the kitchen, to make sure that it qualified, and then went to the head chef to exchange the new hot pot base.
Zhao Huan has already arrived at the room on the third floor under the guidance of the waiter, and after the waiter knocks on the door and gets permission, he enters the room together with the waiter.
When he sees Zhao Huan appear here, Gu Lang’s face flashes with surprise, which quickly dissipates and he tells the waiter to leave.
Zhao Huan, watching Gu Lang’s action, also told his guards to go out and wait for him, and he himself stayed behind.
When only the two of them were left in the room, Zhao Huan said, “Are you going to stay here for the rest of your life and not be allowed to go back anymore?”
Gu Lang lifted his eyelids, raised his eyes to look at him, closed the account book in his hand, and said in a low voice: “What’s wrong with staying here? You can also take care of your health, now that I don’t lack anything, it’s just right for me to stay here and take care of my old age.”
“It’s not too suitable for you to retire at your age, isn’t it?” Zhao Huan looked at him and said in a teasing voice. Zhao Huan looked at him and laughed, but in the meantime he still took a close look at his complexion, and found that this person was really better than the previous sickly complexion, he immediately thought of Ger who had just gone down, and said in a half-joking, half-mocking tone, “It looks like you’ve married a good Fu Lang!”
Gu Lang gave him a sidelong glance and didn’t say anything to deny it.
Zhao Huan, looking at his appearance, could not help but be astonished and sighed: “You even got married one day, in the past, when those virtue ladies came to the door, I did not see you look good, I thought you would be alone for the rest of your life.”
Gu Lang listened to his friend’s mocks, and did not continue to answer, but changed the topic and said lightly: “You came here this time, just to talk about this nonsense?”
Upon hearing this, Zhao Huan immediately made an expression that said, “How can you do this? You’re actually hurting my feelings like this, and then under Gu Lang’s stern gaze, he put away this expression and embarrassedly said, “Of course not.”
Looking at his face, Gu Lang knew there was something in his words and said directly, “Then why?”
Zhao Huan knew that his old friend was a smart person, even if he didn’t say anything now, he would know his intention if he said a few more words later, so he didn’t beat around the bush anymore and directly said, “Naturally, I made a mistake again and wanted to come out to get away from the storm (lie low until something blows over) and then I came here to take a look at you when I learnt news about you.”
Gu Lang stared straight at him, obviously waiting for his next words.
Zhao Huan raised both of his hands and said helplessly, “Of course, I thought that if I could persuade you to go back, my mistake might be canceled out.”
Hearing him say this, Gu Lang lowered his eyebrows, looked at the fox skin gloves Chen Xing had just made for himself, and softly said, “I’m not going back, I’m having a good life now.”
Zhao Huan shrugged his shoulders and did not show any disappointment on his face, still with that cynical look, he said carelessly, “Originally, before I came here, I thought I could possibly persuade you to go back, but after I came here, I think it should be impossible for me to do so, and you’re really living a good life here.”
Gu Lang raised his eyes to look at him, both are smart people, they looked at each other instantly, they understood each other’s mind.
“Don’t worry ba, if you don’t want to do something, no one can force you to do it. However, if my Gege is uncertain about something, he may need you to come up with an idea.” Zhao Huan added up.
Gu Lang nodded, he understood that this was already the biggest step back from that person, if he could live a peaceful life, there is no harm in agreeing to this little thing.
