Chapter 41: Lian Huan II

  Guo Chen first took me to a store, and then each of us ordered a bowl of the local specialty noodles, which is said to be called "Hai Shi Shan Meng".

  The reason I was shocked by this name wasn't because of the name itself, but because I really couldn't imagine that Gu Chen would come to a small eatery like this and still be so casual and natural.

  In my opinion, Gu Chen should be like Gu Liu Yi, not eating the smoke and fire of human relations, although this sentence is often used to describe girls.

  "What are you spacing out for?" Gu Chen glanced at me, taking in my surprise, then explained: "I haven't had dinner yet, come and eat with me."

  The key is not here, okay?!

  I gazed at Gu Chen inquisitively and asked: "What did you usually eat for dinner before?"

  "Noodles, dumplings, cabbage..."

  If I had to describe my mood after listening to Gu Chen's long speech, it would be "thunderstruck"; if I had to use one word to describe the color of my face at this moment, I think "constipated" is the most suitable.

  Although I don't want to describe it like this.

  Seeing my colorful and ever-changing face, Gu Chen finally laughed out loud. The coldness and arrogance in his eyebrows and eyes all disappeared, and he was now wearing a smile like that of a child who had gotten away with something, his eyes shining brightly as he said: "Gotcha."

  Don't be so deceitful!

  I was about to get angry, but the noodles had already arrived. Gu Chen pushed a bowl towards me and said with a good mood: "This noodle is very delicious, try some."

  I naturally took a sip.

  I caught a glimpse of Gu Chen's self-satisfied gaze, and I swallowed the words that were about to come out of my mouth. With a pretentious air of profundity, I said: "It's just so-so, Gu Chen's taste is nothing special."

  Then, I seemed to have received a big white eye from the shop assistant.

  I remain silent, with tears flowing in my heart, I know I've been fooled again.

  Gu Chen ignored me and focused on eating noodles, his handsome profile looked exceptionally good under the dim light, I stared blankly at him until I was mesmerized, when I came to my senses, I couldn't help but curse myself as a jinx in my heart.

  That meal, I ate less than half a bowl, while Gu Chen ate an entire large bowl.

  The boss seemed to be very familiar with Gu Chen, his eyes swept over me and he smiled at Gu Chen saying: "Your girlfriend is really beautiful." His praise was sincere, but I couldn't help but wipe away a sweat.

  Uncle, what's with that gaze! I silently said to myself, although I'm indeed very pretty, but I'm not Gu Chen's girlfriend.

  I don't know when I also got infected with Xu Luokai's narcissistic personality disorder.

  "That's for sure." Gu Chen raised an eyebrow, his expression as arrogant as possible. I was taken aback and subconsciously looked at him, just in time to see the pride in his eyes. He said to the boss, "Whatever I, Gu Chen, set my sights on is definitely the best."

  The boss was also stunned, then burst out laughing and said to me: "Little girl, feel free to come here to eat in the future. Although my place isn't serving any delicacies, kids like Xiao Chen have been eating here since they were young."

  I was stunned for a moment, then smiled and perfunctorily agreed.

  Did Gu Chen grow up eating here since he was little?

  Walking out of the store with Gu Chen, I stood beside him and looked at the silent Gu Chen. Suddenly, I felt a lot closer to him.

  Before I entered the Gu's household, Gu Chen and I were people from two different worlds. He didn't know about my past, and I had never understood his former self either.

  Everyone has an unknown past, Gu Chen is probably the same.
