Li Zichen clapped his little hands: "That's right! It's because Gu Zichen is willing to get close to her, so we have to be on guard!"
Li Jinze turned his head and looked at Gu Zichen and Gu Manman, who were getting along very well with each other.
They get along so well, it's like they are a mother and son.
"Why should you be on guard? If Zichen is happy, why should you be on guard?"
Li Zichen looked at Li Jinze in disbelief: "Father, what are you talking about!? Gu Zichen is not her child! Why do you want to be so close to an outsider?"
Li Jinze frowned slightly: "Zichen, your behavior has become more and more strange recently. Who taught you to do this? You are becoming more and more rude. Where are the etiquette I taught you before?"
Li Zichen lowered his head and maintained due silence, but his eyes were still locked on Gu Zichen and Gu Manman in front of him.
"I feel relieved to see that you are fine. You and Zichen should not quarrel because of me anymore. If there are clues, I will try my best to find them. I will definitely prove that I am your mother!"
Gu Manman's hands were firmly on Gu Zichen's arms, with a serious look on her face.
Seeing her like this, he nodded his head cautiously: "Yes."
She leaned into Gu Zichen's arms, and then sighed softly: "Zichen, I really want to eat the egg noodles you made..."
Before he finished speaking, Li Zichen stepped forward and pulled him back: "Okay, stop talking, we should go back! Otherwise, mother should be worried!"
After saying that, Li Zichen pulled Gu Zichen into the extended Lincoln.
Gu Zichen kept looking back at Gu Manman behind him, his eyes full of incomprehensible expressions.
After watching the extended-length Lincoln drive away, she got up and chased for a few steps, and finally sighed softly.
She slowly tore open the candy in her hand and stuffed the candy into her mouth.
Gu Manman turned around and left, but her hand was grabbed by Li Jinze.
"Gu Manman, were you ignoring me just now?"
She turned around, her face showing indifference.
She pulled her hand back: "Should I pay attention to you? Do you have anything else? If nothing happens, I'll leave first."
He held her tightly, retracted his arms, and took her into his arms.
"Why are you so cold to me today?"
Gu Manman put her hands on his chest: "Indifference? What should I do to you? Show me your courtesy?"
She became angry when she thought that she couldn't get through Li Jinze's phone yesterday and today.
At first, she was still worried about whether something happened to him. Even when she encountered danger yesterday, she was still worried about whether something happened to him!
In the end, he was the one who blacklisted her phone number!
How can this kind of behavior not make people feel chilled?
Li Jinze frowned in confusion: "You are so angry today."
Gu Manman pushed him away, turned and left without hesitation: "Sorry, I have something else to do, so I'll leave first."
Looking at her leaving figure, he couldn't help but feel a little moved.
Her unique and familiar body fragrance lingered around him, lingering for a long time, affecting his thoughts.
He took a few steps to catch up, but what Gu Qingqing had said before came to mind again.
In the end, he could only watch Gu Manman leave.
Gu Manman got into the taxi and looked through the glass at Li Jinze, who was standing there just watching her, never moving, and lowered his head.
There was a hint of disappointment in her beautiful eyes.
He really doesn't believe her anymore, right?
The taxi gradually drove away, and the two of them went in opposite directions.
When Gu Manman got out of the taxi, she saw Ye Lan standing at the door to greet guests not far away.
She wiped her eyes. Ye Lan was a beauty from country M! In China, she was considered a foreigner. Such an exotic beauty stood out at the door, attracting many customers to the restaurant.
After confirming that the woman in front of her was Ye Lan, she quickly stepped forward: "Sister Lan, why are you here?"
Ye Lan paused: "Gu Manman? Why are you here? Just wait for me for a while. I will get off work soon. I will talk to you then."
In order not to affect her, Gu Manman had no choice but to stand aside and wait.
In about twenty minutes, Ye Lan got off work. The consular manager gave Ye Lan 500 yuan before nodding with satisfaction.
"You are really suitable to be our receptionist. If you plan to stay for a long time, the benefits we will provide will be richer."
Ye Lan shook her head politely: "I haven't made any long-term plans yet."
The consular manager seemed to want to keep this "cash cow", "Then will you come tomorrow? Your salary will be paid on a daily basis, just like today."
Ye Lan hesitated: "I will consider this."
Gu Manman held Ye Lan's hand tightly, "What are you considering?!"
She said to the consular manager: "Manager, aren't you being kind? This restaurant is considered a high-end restaurant. I stood here for twenty minutes and saw about ten guests entering. The minimum consumption for one table was
Five hundred, the profit there is five thousand."
"She must have been standing here for a whole day, right? How about five hundred? If it's a daily payment, I believe the salary is related to the number of customers and consumption today, right? It seems that you have embezzled a lot!"
The consular manager paused. He originally thought that a foreigner would be easier to fool! But he didn't expect to meet such a troublesome woman!
"What nonsense are you talking about! Just five hundred! Five hundred a day is already a lot!"
Gu Manman nodded slightly and walked straight into the restaurant: "Really? Then I'll just go in and ask the boss."
Seeing that Gu Manman was serious, the consular manager panicked: "Wait! Give me another five hundred! No more! You guys should leave quickly!"
He stuffed five hundred into Ye Lan's hand again.
Ye Lan was filled with joy. Her money suddenly increased by half. How could she be unhappy?
"Gu Manman, let's go back!"
Gu Manman had no intention of leaving, she continued to reach out to the consular manager.
"Just give her as much as you need to give her. Otherwise, I'll go to the boss and make a fuss. Not to mention that you'll have to spit out all the money you embezzled. Even your position as manager may not be stable."
She narrowed her eyes and smiled: "It must have taken a lot of time for you to get to where you are now, right?"
Under Gu Manman's threat, the consular manager shook his head, then took out another four thousand yuan and handed it to Ye Lan.
"Five thousand! It's really gone!"
Gu Manman nodded slightly, but still did not retract her hand.
He said angrily: "It's really five thousand! If I lie to you again, I'll be struck by lightning!"
She suddenly smiled: "I know it's five thousand. You delayed our time for five minutes. Shouldn't you make some compensation?"
He paused and said angrily: "Don't go too far!"
Gu Manman continued to raise her feet and walked inside: "Boss..."
The consular manager panicked and quickly stuffed a hundred dollars into Gu Manman's hand: "Compensation! Leave quickly! Stop making trouble!"
Gu Manman spread her fingers: "Bring out another five hundred."
