Chapter 84: Chapter 084 Too Grand
By the fire, Qi Yue was dazed when Gu Huai’s phone suddenly rang.
Gu Huai glanced at the caller ID and then answered the call, “Hello, uncle… Yes, we are at the experintal field, ti? I don’t know, let ask her…”
While holding the connected phone, Gu Huai turned to Qi Yue and asked, “Uncle is asking when we will go over?”
“Uncle…?” Qi Yue blanked for a mont before realizing Gu Huai was referring to Professor Shen, and quickly replied, “Anyti is fine! I can do anyti! Don’t let Professor Shen wait in suspense!”
Gu Huai nodded, spoke into the phone again, “Uncle, we’ll co over now. Yes, okay, got it.”
After Gu Huai hung up, he asked, “Shall we go now?”
...
Qi Yue nodded vigorously, “Yes, yes, yes! Which restaurant are we going to? Does Professor Shen have any dietary restrictions?”
Gu Huai smiled, “We are not going to a restaurant; we are going to Professor Shen’s house.”
Qi Yue was stunned, “Ah… Professor Shen’s house…”
She had always thought they would just eat out, not that they would actually go to Professor Shen’s house.
Gu Huai: “Yes.”
Qi Yue was sowhat nervous, “Can we really go to Professor Shen’s house? Weren’t we supposed to let treat…”
“How could we possibly let you, the junior, treat,” Gu Huai said, “Besides, my uncle’s place is not far from here, and it’s quite convenient to go there.”
Although Qi Yue was a bit nervous, naturally she respected Professor Shen’s wishes, and responded imdiately, “Then that’s fine. Is there a supermarket or so place nearby where I can buy things? I’d like to buy so fruit; it’s not good to go there empty-handed.”
Gu Huai: “There’s a supermarket; they have quite a complete selection.”
Qi Yue: “That’s perfect, let’s hurry over! What fruit does Professor Shen like?”
Gu Huai: “Anything is fine; he’s not picky.”
Qi Yue: “Then I’ll buy so other stuff too. Oh, is Madam Shen at ho? Should I buy a bouquet for Madam Shen?”
Gu Huai: “She’s at ho, and flowers are fine.”
Qi Yue: “What flowers does Madam Shen like?”
Gu Huai: “Tulips would be nice…”
Qi Yue: “Does Professor Shen have any other favorites?”
Gu Huai: “…”
Clearly, at this mont, Gu Huai realized that Qi Yue’s mind was completely filled with everything about his uncle…
…
Soon, Qi Yue and Gu Huai arrived at the supermarket near Professor Shen’s house.
The supermarket indeed had a very comprehensive selection, and there was even a small stall selling fresh flowers.
Qi Yue bought a bunch of tulips which Madam Shen liked, then selected so fruit, and then wandered into the health supplents section.
Gu Huai followed behind Qi Yue, pushing the cart, watching as she finished buying the flowers and fruit but preparing to continue shopping, he couldn’t help raising his eyebrows and reminded her, “President Qi, this is enough; you don’t need to buy too much.”
Qi Yue frowned, “How can that be? After all, it’s my first ti eting Professor Shen, and we’re visiting his house…”
Gu Huai chuckled softly, “I understand how you feel, but, if you make it so grand, my uncle and aunt might think… I am bringing a girlfriend ho.”
“Cough cough cough…” Qi Yue choked, her hand holding the health products froze, “Er… really?”
Gu Huai: “What do you think?”
Qi Yue quickly put back the health products, “Then… I should just stop here; basic courtesy should be enough. I was a bit too nervous and didn’t think it through.”
Gu Huai nodded, “Yes, just put them back for now. Just buying fruits and flowers this ti is enough, we can talk about other things next ti.”
Qi Yue: “Okay, okay! Then I’ll listen to you!”
