2621, Every family has a sutra that is difficult to recite.
Hexianju is an antique hotel. Just the various decorations at the entrance of the hotel give people an extremely shocking visual sense.
The exterior walls are decorated in various ways, with many antique architectural styles extending three-dimensionally outward through the exterior walls.
For those who didn’t know, I thought this was the Grand View Garden.
The gate is also made extremely grand, with a door head that resembles the shape of a palace, and the gate looks like the same style as the Forbidden City.
Not to mention anything else, just by entering Hexianju, you will be attracted by the various decorative details here.
Because the address is near Jiangnan No. 7 Middle School, it is often attended by school teachers for various dinner gatherings.
"Are they all together?" Seeing Gu Chen and others following the school leaders of No. 7 Middle School, the waiter at the door also asked.
"Yes, we are together, but we sit separately. They eat theirs and we eat ours." Bai Xiaolan said.
"Okay, I understand." It seemed that the school leader had greeted him, so the waiter at the door immediately picked up the walkie-talkie hanging on his waist and started communicating with his colleagues.
Putting down the walkie-talkie, the waitress also smiled and said: "The school leaders over at No. 7 Middle School, they have reserved a few private rooms over there."
While speaking, the waitress pointed to a certain location and then said:
"But we have to reserve private rooms in advance, so if you add a temporary one, you may not have a private room, it can only be in the lobby outside."
"But I can arrange a seat by the window for you, right next to the box. Do you think that's okay?"
"Okay, we don't have to be particular about it, as long as the food here is delicious." Photographer Wu Jun on the side also said with a smile.
"Okay, please come with me." Upon hearing this, the waitress was also ready to take everyone to the second floor, and then said to another colleague next to her:
"You go greet the guests over there at No. 7 Middle School, and leave this place to me."
"Okay." The female colleague nodded in agreement, and then quickly trotted forward, walking in front of these school leaders, leading everyone up the stairs.
Gu Chen and others were arranged at a window with antique decoration.
Looking out the window from here, you can see the buildings of Jiangnan No. 7 Middle School.
"This location is not bad." Zhang Li poked her head out and said to Gu Jun beside her: "Gu Jun, you can see our alma mater from this place."
"This restaurant has been open for many years. I remember when I was a freshman in high school, this restaurant just opened."
"At that time, there were a lot of gifts and food delivered to the door." Gu Jun also looked at the scenery outside and began to have a wave of memories.
Zhang Li nodded like a chicken pecking at rice: "Yes, I remember you gave me the snacks you received, which seemed to include beef cubes and various candies."
"Haha, do you still remember?" Seeing that Zhang Li still remembered this, Gu Jun couldn't help but said jokingly.
Seeing the rather boring interaction between the two, Bai Xiaolan seemed a little embarrassed. Seeing Gu Chen staring in the direction of the box, Bai Xiaolan also glanced at him casually.
Xu Tianxia, a master of motivation for the college entrance examination, was holding his mobile phone and answering calls at the door.
Bai Xiaolan couldn't help complaining and said: "It seems that Master Xu's business is quite busy. He keeps answering the phone. I just saw him answering the phone at the gate of No. 7 Middle School."
"Now that we're in Hexianju, he's still on the phone."
"Business is busy now, so that's for sure." Photographer Wu Jun couldn't help but say while drinking tea and eating peanut appetizers on the dining table:
"The college entrance examination is coming soon, and many schools are holding swearing-in meetings. To create a sufficient atmosphere at the scene, it is not enough for the principals to shout slogans."
"It is also necessary to invite foreign aid, especially professional motivational lecturers like Xu Tianxia to give students a boost."
"Furthermore, people can only make money for a while, taking one order a day, or two orders a day, one morning and one afternoon, which is a lot of income."
"Alas." After hearing what photographer Wu Jun said, Bai Xiaolan also sighed and said helplessly:
"They can work for a month and earn a living for a year. Sometimes I really envy their brains. How could they come up with such a niche career track? Their earnings are comparable to those of us in the TV Tower.
Those who work are much more expensive.”
"We are the ones who just need enough flowers and can guarantee harvests despite droughts and floods. They have to bear the responsibility for their own profits and losses and take risks. But today I saw that Xu Tianxia jumping up and down on the stage. He is really relaxed."
"If it were me, I would be extremely embarrassed. Anyway, this kind of money that requires a thick skin will definitely not be available to me."
"Haha." Seeing photographer Wu Jun making fun of herself like this, Bai Xiaolan also laughed from ear to ear.
Everyone was talking and laughing at the dinner table, waiting for others to arrive.
From the several private rooms at No. 7 Middle School, various laughter and laughter could be heard from time to time, and the conversation seemed to be good.
Just when Principal Liu walked out of the box and was about to find the toilet, he happened to pass by Gu Chen's table. He immediately stopped a woman who looked like a manager, pointed at Gu Chen's table and reminded him:
"They came here with us. When the time comes, we will pay them according to our discount for each table, and we will give discounts wherever there is a discount."
"Don't worry, Principal Liu, you have already explained it before." The female manager also smiled and felt that her voice was pretty good today.
"Okay." After receiving a satisfactory answer, Principal Liu stopped worrying about it and hurried to find the toilet. As he walked, he greeted Gu Chen's table:
"The people you are waiting for haven't arrived yet?"
"Almost." Bai Xiaolan also said with a smile.
…
…
6:35 p.m.
Gu Chen heard a familiar voice here.
Turning around, I saw Lu Weiwei, Officer Wang and Yuan Shasha walking towards the second floor talking and laughing.
Several people were chatting and laughing, and also took the initiative to walk towards Gu Chen's seat.
Gu Chen pointed to a few empty seats and said, "Sit wherever you want. Gu Jun is paying for today's dinner."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "Gu Jun?" Before, she was only looking at Gu Chen, but Lu Weiwei didn't pay attention to the other people around Gu Chen.
But now when I took a closer look, I realized that the people sitting here were Gu Jun and Zhang Li whom I rescued not long ago in Haidong City.
Seeing that they were all old acquaintances, Lu Weiwei pointed at the two of them and smiled and said: "Hey, so you are here too?"
"Yes, I will go back to my alma mater to participate in an event, and then I will be interviewed by Reporter Bai." Gu Jun also smiled.
Zhang Li on the side also quickly greeted everyone: "My benefactors, we meet again."
"Haha, it seems that we are all destined to be together." Officer Wang quickly found an empty seat to sit down, then picked up a piece of beef, tore off the wrapping paper and stuffed it into his mouth, and asked:
"Have you ordered? I'm so hungry."
"The food will be served soon, it will take a few more minutes," Gu Jun said.
Yuan Shasha was also curious and asked: "You said it was Hexianju near No. 7 Middle School, so wasn't the event you participated in the college entrance examination swearing-in ceremony of No. 7 Middle School?"
"Yes." Zhang Li nodded in agreement.
"I heard that a divine guard dog from your No. 7 Middle School passed away, so the College Entrance Examination Oath-taking Ceremony is also a meeting to commemorate the divine guard dog. Is that right?" Yuan Shasha, who was a bit gossipy, asked again.
Zhang Li also continued to nod and said with a smile: "Yes, we also need to add the totem of the guardian dog to the school emblem. Our alma mater is awesome now."
"So it all happened in your alma mater?" Hearing this explanation, Officer Wang was also quite curious:
"I have also read this news. I seem to have seen it from the news link in Bai Xiaolan's circle of friends. I have basically never missed the news link sent by Bai Xiaolan." Officer Wang said after drinking a cup of tea.
This made Bai Xiaolan extremely happy, and she quickly echoed, "Officer Wang is really generous to me."
"That's necessary." Seeing Bai Xiaolan say this, Officer Wang also smiled and said:
"The news reported by you, Reporter Bai, is more meaningful. I don't have any hobbies at ordinary times. I just like to read the news during my breaks, especially the news from Reporter Bai."
"Ha ha."
Here, Officer Wang was still busy flattering everyone, while on the other side, the cart serving food had already arrived beside everyone.
The two waiters immediately started bringing the dishes from the cart to the table.
After the dishes were placed, the two waiters picked up the drinks.
But photographer Wu Jun waved his hand and refused: "No need for drinks, we don't drink."
Glancing at Gu Jun, Wu Jun asked again: "Are you drinking?"
"I don't drink either." Gu Jun said.
"Then no one will drink. Let's change drinks." Wu Jun said.
"Okay." Seeing this, the waitress could only take down the drinks and replace them with two bottles of juice.
At this moment, Gu Chen discovered that Xu Tianxia, a master of motivation for the college entrance examination, had appeared in his field of vision again.
At this time, Xu Tianxia's expression was a little solemn, as if he had encountered some difficulties.
He kept walking back and forth at the door of the box, dancing and chattering on the phone.
"What's going on with Xu Tianxia? It feels like he's never left his phone." Bai Xiaolan couldn't help complaining after seeing all this.
Lu Weiwei, who also has a strong gossip mentality, heard this and quickly touched Bai Xiaolan's shoulder and asked:
"Xiaolan, who is that person? Why is he wearing a green formal suit? It feels weird."
"Inspiring lecturer for the college entrance examination." Before Bai Xiaolan could speak, photographer Wu Jun picked up a piece of beef with chopsticks and put it into his mouth. He chewed it slowly and said:
"Didn't you meet each other when you graduated from high school?"
"No." Lu Weiwei shook her head and said with a smile: "Maybe it's our principal who is very eloquent, right?"
"With the principal here, maybe there are no motivational lecturers for the college entrance examination, right?"
After the words fell, Lu Weiwei turned to look at Gu Chen and asked hurriedly:
"Junior Brother Gu, did you ever meet such a person when you were in your senior year of high school?"
"No." Gu Chen shook his head, picked up the dishes and chewed slowly:
"Our principal is also very eloquent. He can make everyone's blood boil every time, just like a chicken's blood."
"Haha." Hearing what Gu Chen said, Lu Weiwei couldn't help but laugh and said: "It seems that schools that hire such motivational lecturers for college entrance examinations as foreign aid have a principal who is not good at speaking."
"How many times have I told you that this is the last time, why are you still like this?"
While everyone here was still making fun of the inspirational lecturer for the college entrance examination, they were suddenly startled by a burst of noise.
Everyone immediately looked in the direction of Xu Tianxia.
It seemed that because he was too excited just now, Xu Tianxia didn't pay attention to the tone of his words.
But now that he had reacted, Xu Tianxia immediately turned around and looked around.
Seeing someone staring at him, Xu Tianxia quickly turned around, deliberately lowered his tone, and continued to communicate with the person on the phone.
But judging from his various body movements, it seems that he has encountered some difficult person or thing.
"Okay, I have something to do now, so I won't tell you anymore. Let's just leave it at that. I'll hang up."
After a few simple words, Xu Tianxia took a deep breath, hung up the phone, and stuffed it into his pocket.
The whole person also seemed a little exhausted, and he could only lie on the wall outside the box to relax himself.
After taking a few deep breaths, Xu Tianxia walked directly towards the toilet.
And because they had to pass Gu Chen's table, everyone realized that Xu Tianxia's face was very ugly at the moment, as if something bad had really happened.
Not long after, when Xu Tianxia passed by Gu Chen's table again and was about to return to the box, Gu Chen found that Xu Tianxia's face and forehead were covered with water stains.
It seems that he went to the bathroom and washed his face to calm down.
However, when Gu Chen felt a little surprised, Xu Tianxia, who had been hesitant just now, seemed to have changed his face while pushing open the door to the private room, and he also smiled brightly at the people in the private room.
Soon, there was another commotion in the box.
"This Xu Tianxia is really strange. Watching him give a speech on the podium of No. 7 Middle School really feels powerful."
"He gives people a feeling of full positive energy, but when it's time to eat, he feels like a different person."
At this moment, Gu Jun couldn't help but joke.
"Maybe something happened at home? After all, every family has its own problems." Zhang Li complained quickly.
"But what does this have to do with us? We are here to have a dinner, so we don't have to worry about this kind of thing, eh? Not to mention, their fish is really good." Officer Wang seemed to be thinking about eating.
Open your mouth and eat all kinds of food.
Because the plate of fish was placed in front of Officer Wang, and because it was so delicious, Officer Wang "annihilated" most of it by himself.
Seeing this, Lu Weiwei quickly turned the dining table towards Gu Chen, transferred the plate of fish to Gu Chen, and said:
"Junior Brother Gu, I know from the look of Lao Wang eating that this fish must be delicious. You should try it quickly, but don't let Lao Wang eat it alone."
"Okay." Seeing that Lu Weiwei was about to feed the fish into his mouth, Gu Chen quickly picked up a piece and put it in a bowl.
Seeing this funny scene, Gu Jun and Zhang Li looked at each other, and both of them also suppressed laughter.
