Chapter 454: 454 Saved you and you bite me back? (3)_1
"Of course you’re treating," he said, "it’ll take some time for the surveillance results to come in. It should be ready by the time we finish eating."
Eleven had now recovered, having eaten a chocolate cake and was no longer feeling faint. She felt energized. However, she realized that she had nothing on her when it was time to pay.
Oh right...
Where was her bag?
Before she could even ask, Gu Tianyu paid the bill on his own.
The two of them moved to the Korean barbecue restaurant.
"By the way...what’s the date? What’s the day? What time is it?"
"25th, Monday, 12 noon."
"Still the 25th...oh no...I didn’t go to the office, I am going to get marked for absence."
Her week-long vacation had swiftly flown by, and today was her first day back at the office. She originally planned to stop by the business center on her way to work to buy some costumes, or perhaps go directly to work and then go home in the evening to surprise her two little darlings.
Little did she know, someone had given her a "surprise."
Gu Tianyu was speechless: "You were almost killed just now, and you’re worried about work."
"I survived, didn’t I? So of course now I have to worry about my salary."
The barbecue restaurant recommended by Gu Tianyu’s assistant had a very good reputation. It was already packed with people during mealtime with a long line stretching out onto the sidewalk. Some people had a seat while waiting, but most were standing.
Looking at the number she had torn off, they were still twenty numbers away.
Eleven asked, "Third Young Master, have you ever waited to eat?"
Probably not?
As far as she could remember, Gu Liancheng never brought her to a place like this. People like them would have a private room reserved at a high-end restaurant or rent out the whole restaurant. Why would they ever need to wait outside?
"Never," just as expected his answer was the same, "It’s my first time."
"Really. Should we eat somewhere else? I should at least treat you to something nice."
"No need, I want to experience this. Let’s stay here," He said, "I never thought ... I would share my first time waiting for food with you. Does it feel like we’re dating?"
His ambiguous statement made her uncomfortable... He was also speaking loudly, attracting the attention of everyone in front. Eleven quickly turned and covered her face with her hand.
"Oh— Honey, look, isn’t that the Third Young Master of the Gu Family who just returned from abroad?"
Once someone recognized him, others followed, bringing even more attention their way.
Eleven felt a sense of helplessness. The Gu Family just can’t stay out of the limelight.
She had been in a relationship before, with Jin Xiangbei. Dating does feel more intimate in places like this instead of in a big restaurant - just the two of them.
But she never thought about having this "dating" experience with Gu Tianyu!
"Is he here with his girlfriend? I wonder if she’s pretty..."
Someone was already taking out a camera to take a picture. Eleven turned away again, but suddenly Gu Tianyu pulled her into his arms.
"Sorry, my girlfriend is a little camera-shy."
Damn it...
But at this moment, she couldn’t push him away.
She didn’t want to make the headlines.
Public scrutiny can be terrifying. Once her identity is revealed, she’d be branded as a home-wrecker and won’t be able to hold her head high. But she can’t let them victimize the children.
At the same time, Gu Liancheng was already looking at a picture that had just been uploaded online.
