Chapter 812: Courting A Wife Incredibly Fast (2)
Amusement glinted in Gu Jinhang’s eyes.
“So you’re not entirely heartless. At least I haven’t brought you to eat such sumptuous meals in vain.”
Ji Mingyue: …
Why did he make her sound like a glutton?
This…
Gu Jinhang said, “Later, I’ll bring you for tea and snacks, then we can go shopping. When we’re tired of shopping, we’ll go to Jin Jiang Restaurant tonight to eat. All right? What would you like to eat?”
Ji Mingyue was rather embarrassed. She turned to look at him. “Today… I’ll treat you! It’s not very nice that you have to treat me every time. This time, it’s my turn to treat you. I…”
Gu Jinhang suddenly pressed close to her. She could feel his warm breath on her face, sending her heart into turmoil.
“Aren’t you still studying? Where did you get the money to give me a treat?”
Ji Mingyue: …
“Aren’t you studying as well? Why are you so rich then?”
“Because I worked for a long time previously! I’m older than you.”
Ji Mingyue: …
She felt that she had wasted her time. She had come to the capital a few years ago to find a job, but had been harassed by the Bai family. Many things happened later on to depress her. Sometimes, she did not dare to leave the house, so she was in no state to go to work.
Later, she went to the provincial capital and worked for a while. She usually spent almost all her salary and did not save much.
In the previous circumstances, it was already considered very good that she had managed to save some of her salary besides what she spent on her daily needs.
She was embarrassed to be spending her family’s money at her age, so she tried to be as independent as possible.
In this respect, she really could not compare to Gu Jinhang. At least, her salary was much lower than his.
Ji Mingyue said, “I know you had a high salary, but surely you can’t afford to bring me out to eat and play like that? You always choose the expensive dishes at Jin Jiang Restaurant. A single meal costs a lot. Do you earn enough every month?
“Also, you’re not working right now!”
Gu Jinhang said nonchalantly, “My family is rich! I’m the Gu family’s successor and I run all the family’s businesses. Of course I have money.
“Besides, the boss of Jin Jiang Restaurant is my friend. I basically eat there for free.”
Gu Jinhang felt very smug. It was great that his younger cousin was running a restaurant! He could eat like a tycoon for free.
Besides, he and the other cousins had been giving this younger cousin pocket money ever since she was a little girl. But when his younger cousin returned to China, she had given them a large sum of money. So he was very rich now.
Ji Mingyue was taken aback when she heard that. She looked at him worshipfully. “Really? You even know the boss of Jin Jiang Restaurant? You’re amazing! How do you know each other?”
Gu Jinhang smiled smugly. He especially liked Ji Mingyue looking at him adoringly. “The boss and I are old acquaintances. We’re especially close.”
She’s my own cousin. Of course we’re close.
The car drove along for a while before Gu Jinhang asked the driver to stop.
“The scenery up ahead is very nice. Shall we go for a walk?”
Ji Mingyue obediently got out.
There were many old streets in this part of the capital. This area was not very special, but it had a few gardens of considerable antiquity.
They used to be gardens in the past. Now they were just lonely places that no one visited.
When it snowed in winter, this area became even more lonely. There was no one around, and it was very quiet.
Although there was snow on the ground, the sun was shining brightly and it was quite warm.
As she and Gu Jinhang walked, theirs were the only footprints that could be seen on the road. Gu Jinhang asked, “Have you thought of an answer to my previous question?”
