Gu Lian didn't know why Lu Zechen's fever didn't go away, but she had an intuition that it had something to do with her.
He sent her that silly joke last night, but she didn't know how long it stayed under the bed.
Anyway, there was nothing to do when she returned to the imperial capital, so she was not in a hurry.
When breakfast came, they both ate separately. Lu Zechen ate some porridge, lay on his side on the bed, and looked in her direction with drooped eyelids.
In this way, it looks a bit like a stray dog.
"There are steamed buns, do you want to eat?"
"Ah -" he opened his mouth directly.
Gu Lian pinched a small one, walked to the bed, and stuffed the whole thing into his mouth.
Lu Zechen stared.
Gu Lian: "Chew slowly and talk less."
Lu Zechen was depressed and chewed hard.
Gu Lian is quite boring. She usually doesn't do anything during the day, and she has nothing to do.
I wanted to go for a walk, but suddenly I received a strange phone call.
She didn't think much and hung up directly.
Called in again.
Several times in a row, it doesn’t look like harassing calls anymore.
Gu Lian frowned and pressed answer.
"Hello--"
"Is it... Gu Lian?"
It was a female voice, cautious and a little hoarse.
"Who are you?" Gu Lian didn't recognize who it was.
The person on the other side was silent and suddenly said: "I am Dong Yan."
Gu Lian's eyes froze for a moment.
Lu Zechen had just finished eating the buns, and when he looked at her, he found that she was stiff.
"Gu Lian?" he called.
Gu Lian glanced at him, took her cell phone, walked to the bathroom, and locked the door.
Lu Zechen was suspicious and sat up.
After waiting for a while, Gu Lian walked out of the bathroom.
"Who's calling?"
"A former friend."
"Do you still have friends here?" Lu Zechen didn't believe it.
Gu Lian went to the room to get her coat. After a while, she walked out and looked at the person on the bed, "Lend me some money."
Lu Zechen didn't even think about it, "I'll transfer you."
Gu Lian shook his head, "I want cash."
"There's still some leftover from yesterday."
Lu Zechen lifted the quilt and got down to the ground, walked to the edge and picked up a box, and handed it to her directly, "Is it enough?"
Gu Lian was at a loss for words. She stepped forward, took the box, placed it next to the bed, opened it, and only took two stacks.
Lu Zechen: "What is this enough for?"
Gu Lian didn't explain. Anyway, he couldn't understand the concept of money in another world.
"You want to go out?" he asked again.
Gu Lian nodded.
"I'll accompany you."
"No need." Gu Lian shook his head and thought for a moment, "Just lend me Awen."
Lu Zechen was a little worried, "How is the character of your friend, male or female? Is he safe? Don't kidnap and blackmail you."
Gu Lian: "...you are thinking too much."
She turned around and went to the room to get her bag, put all the money in it, and packed it up before going out.
Lu Zechen was very curious as to what friend made her so anxious.
Gu Lian took Awen out, gave Awen the address, and asked him to navigate there.
"OK."
The car drove out of the hotel parking lot and headed towards its destination.
Gu Lian sat in the back seat, her memory going back to a long time ago.
——Lianlian, what should I do? I don’t want to go.
——Then don’t go.
——But not going will offend Wang Xu...
…
——Can you go for me?
The sound echoed in my ears like a magic sound.
"Miss Gu, we're here." Awen reminded.
Gu Lian opened the car window and took a look outside.
She thought Dong Yan chose an ordinary restaurant, but she didn't expect it to be a high-end restaurant like this. This "Jinzhou Yue" also has branches in the Imperial Capital, and the prices are not cheap.
