Since it was he who had asked her what she wanted to eat earlier, it seemed pointless to decide against going now. He might as well not have asked in the first place.
Staring at her slightly disappointed profile, Qin Sijue made a decision two seconds later.
“Address.”
She looked up in surprise and asked blankly, “What address?”
“The one you mentioned earlier.”
He was willing to go?
“Liberation Road!”
With a light tap of the accelerator, the cool Bugatti raced through the bustling streets of Jingcheng and soon arrived at a place called ‘Grandma’s Casserole Porridge’ on Liberation Road.
The entire street looked a bit old, with buildings that seemed in need of repair. They were probably due for demolition in a few years, but the business at this restaurant was booming.
Qin Sijue’s presence seemed somewhat incongruous with his prestigious status, especially next to the parked luxury Bugatti that quickly drew the attention of numerous passersby.
Seeing Grandma’s business thriving as usual, Gu Qiangwei couldn’t help but feel happy for her.
With her sharp eyes, she quickly spotted a seat.
Because the restaurant was small and business was booming, many porridge-eating customers had to ‘share tables.’
“There’s a spot over there.”
Seeing two vacant seats, Gu Qiangwei instinctively took his hand and headed towards the nearby seats.
The old chairs made Qin Sijue frown subconsciously.
It wasn’t that he found the place filthy, but he had been germophobic since childhood and couldn’t stand anything dirty.
Besides, the place didn’t even have air conditioning, and it was scorching hot.
“Hurry up and sit down, or someone else will take the seat.”
Gu Qiangwei had already sat down and, seeing that he remained unmoved, she couldn’t help but look up and urge him to take a seat.
Focusing on the peeling paint of the chair, Qin Sijue continued to frown.
Noticing where he was looking, Gu Qiangwei also tilted her head slightly and glanced at the chipped chair.
A man of his status did seem somewhat aggrieved by coming here.
“It’s just a bit old,” she reassured him. “Grandma is a very clean person, it’s not dirty at all.”
Qin Sijue glanced up at her and still made no move to sit.
“Hey, isn’t that Qiangwei?”
An aged voice cut in, breaking the stand-off between the two.
Gu Qiangwei turned her head to see an elderly woman with white hair approaching.
“Grandma.” Gu Qiangwei smiled and greeted her.
“Qiangwei, you haven’t been here in such a long time.”
Gu Qiangwei smiled, “I’ve been too busy lately.”
“Is that so, work keeps one busy after graduation,” Grandma said kindly, smiling as her gaze shifted to Qin Sijue who was standing aside, “Boyfriend?”
Gu Qiangwei, somewhat embarrassed by Grandma’s blunt words, blushed and was about to explain.
It was then that Qin Sijue, who had been indifferent until now, suddenly took a seat opposite her, surprising her.
He had been reluctant to sit down just a moment ago, and now he had suddenly decided to sit.
“The usual for you?” Grandma asked the pair with a smile. Every time Gu Qiangwei came, she would order a serving of century egg and lean pork porridge, with a side of pickled vegetables.
To Gu Qiangwei, this was a heavenly delight!
And Grandma was so kind, always rounding down the bill for her.
Glancing at Grandma, Gu Qiangwei turned to Qin Sijue, “What would you like to eat?”
Qin Sijue glanced at her.
In twenty-six years, he had never set foot in this kind of establishment to eat; if he wanted porridge, there was always a chef at home to make it.
“The same as you,” he uttered softly.
