Chapter 357 Sun Lei's Invitation 1
It was a coincidence that just as Gu Qingyu had sent Gu Yousheng and the other two away, the phone in the house rang.
Gu Qingyu had just picked up the phone and hadn't had time to say anything when she heard Sun Lei on the other end of the phone say loudly: "Qingyu, I'm back from Shenzhen. Let's get together when you have time!"
"Lei Zi, when did you come back?" Gu Qingyu asked in surprise.
Sun Lei's business is booming now, and he basically lives in Shenzhen. Because of this, the two have not seen each other for almost half a year.
"I arrived in Beijing last night. As soon as I woke up from my nap, I called you right away."
"How about this, Miss Gu, could you please do me a favor and let me treat you to a meal?" Sun Lei said jokingly on the other end of the phone.
Gu Qingyu listened to Sun Lei's slick tone on the other end of the phone and said unhappily, "Speak nicely, or I won't go!"
"Alright! Miss Gu has spoken, how dare I disobey!"
Gu Qingyu listened to Sun Lei's nonchalant voice and said helplessly: "Talk nicely, you are still excited, right?"
"You are really becoming more and more like an old scholar. Okay, I'll stop saying it, okay?" Sun Lei said sarcastically.
Hey! This guy is getting excited!
Gu Qingyu didn't want to dwell on this topic any further, so she asked Sun Lei directly on the other end of the phone, "Tell me, what time and where are you going to have dinner?"
"There's a new private restaurant in Houhai. I heard they make authentic imperial cuisine. Wait at home. I'll drive over to pick you up at five in the evening!"
After finalizing the time and place, Gu Qingyu decisively hung up the phone.
The private restaurant that Sun Lei found was located in a house in an alley. The entrance to the alley was narrow, so Sun Lei parked his car on the road near the entrance to the alley.
"How did you find this remote place?" he asked curiously while giving way to a bicycle in the alley.
"I only knew about this place through an introduction from someone. It is said that the chef here is retired from the Beijing Hotel. His ancestors were imperial chefs in the palace for several generations. We must try it later!" Sun Lei introduced enthusiastically.
"Descendant of the imperial chef? Then I won't be polite to you later, so don't worry about your wallet!" Gu Qingyu said jokingly.
Sun Lei waved his hand and said, "Who are you looking down on? Don't save money for me later!"
While they were talking, the two of them had already arrived at the door of the private restaurant.
This is a two-story courtyard house. The walls appear mottled and worn from the outside, but once you push open the door, you'll discover a different world inside.
It can be seen that the interior of the entire courtyard has undergone a large-scale overall renovation. The front yard is full of flowers, a fish pond and rockery with gurgling water, and the overall environment is quiet and peaceful.
Gu Qingyu and the other person followed the waiter, walked through the corridor in the front yard and came to the private room that had been reserved in advance.
The two sat down and ordered their dishes. After the waiter left, Sun Lei picked up the teacup on the table and poured a cup of tea for Gu Qingyu. "It will take a while for the dishes to be served. Have some tea to moisten your throat first."
Gu Qingyu looked at Sun Lei, who seemed a little attentive in front of him, and felt alert in his heart. This guy was too attentive today.
Seeing Gu Qingyu staring at him motionlessly, Sun Lei paused while pouring tea and asked awkwardly, "What's wrong? Why are you looking at me like that?"
Gu Qingyu raised an eyebrow when he heard this, "What do you think?"
"I...what did I say?!"
