After they finished eating, it was more or less time for afternoon tea.
In such a restaurant, even if the food wasn't too bad, people tend to savor and sample the pastries while soaking up the ambiance.
But Gu Qingjiu finished four to five servings at one go.
The steak wasn't even enough to fill her up...
She had no qualms about her image in front of He Niancheng.
In any case, it wasn't as if he had never seen her in this manner.
Now that she had a filled stomach, Gu Qingjiu made a call to her mother.
Shortly after, the person on the other end picked up the call. Qi Yuefeng's bubbly voice rang over the phone."Hello, Qingjiu?"
"Mom, where are you right now?"
Gu Qingjiu could hear wind chime-like laughter on the other end of the line.
"Me?" Qi Yuefeng sounded like she was in quite a pleasant mood."I'm shopping with your sister-in-law right now."
Sister-in-law?
Gu Qingjiu got it right away."Sister Wange?"
Speaking of which, Gu Qingjiu hadn't contacted Qin Wange much since the last time they met.
But that was because she had been busy...
Thinking of this, Gu Qingjiu immediately asked, "Where are you and Sister Wange? I'll come over to find you two. I happen to have some free time today. Mom, I'll go over and visit you."
Speaking of which, Gu Qingmo told her the last time not to tell their mom about Qin Wange's existence.
Surprisingly, Qi Yuefeng was hanging out with Qin Wange.
From the sounds of it, she seemed pleased with this girl.
Or else she wouldn't sound so happy.
It seems like she had accidentally chanced upon them. Either that or her older brother came clean himself.
"I'm not too familiar with this place. I'll let you talk to your Sister Wange."
Gu Qingjiu then heard a different voice on Qi Yuefeng's phone."Hello, is this Sister Qingjiu?"
Qin Wange affectionately addressed Gu Qingjiu.
Gu Qingjiu felt very happy to hear Qin Wange's voice."Sister Wange."
She had a pretty good impression of Qin Wange.
"Sister, we're in the Longyue Mall right now. We'll wait for you in the cafe beside the plaza door. Take a cab over. Just tell the cab driver this location."
After Qin Wange had told her her address, Gu Qingjiu glanced at He Niancheng. She said, "Okay, coming over right away."
After ending the call, Gu Qingjiu looked towards He Niancheng with a broad smile."Chief Instructor, I'm going over to look for my mother. My sister-in-law is there as well. Why don't you go back first?"
He Niancheng cast a glance at her."I'll send you there."
Though, he didn't mention meeting Gu Qingjiu's mother again.
Gu Qingjiu heaved a sigh of relief. Then, she suddenly heard He Niancheng say, "I'm not dressed too presentably today, and I didn't prepare a present. Let's find a suitable time another day for me to meet with Auntie."
Gu Qingjiu was speechless.
You call this not presentably dressed?
He Niancheng had deliberately changed before coming out today and was wearing a beige shirt that gave off a casual vibe.
However, He Niancheng, the walking clothes hanger, simply looked like a supermodel in it.
How could such a good looking man claim to be not presentably dressed?
If that was the case, 99% of the people on the streets would be considered unpresentable.
But since Gu Qingjiu didn't wish for him to meet with her mother now anyway, she naturally wouldn't say anything. She quickly nodded and said, "Okay, okay, let's go visit her another day."
Hearing this, He Niancheng's eyes narrowed."Sounds like you don't wish for me to meet with your mother?"
"No, no, no."
Gu Qingjiu shook her head vigorously. But she wasn't a fool either, so she didn't say anything too certain.
"I was merely agreeing with you when you said to meet another day!"
