Chapter 172: Eat a Full Meal
Mr. Kong came out of the restaurant at some point. Gu Chenxi, who was on the other side of the phone, stared blankly at the old man with extraordinary temperament behind Kong Liu.
Gong Yoo also looked like he hadn't recovered from the shock yet.
"Master, why did you come out?"
"Why can't I come out?" The old man said with a smile, "My grandson has a girlfriend, can't a grandfather take a look?"
After the old man finished speaking, he turned and looked at Gu Chenxi on the phone.
"Uh..." Kong Liu smiled awkwardly at Gu Chenxi, and said, "Let me introduce you, this is my grandpa. I came to my grandpa's house for dinner today."
When Gu Chenxi on the other end of the phone heard Gong Liu's words, the picture seemed to freeze in an instant.
The next second, the camera on her side went black.
After a chaotic sound, the picture appeared on Gu Chenxi's side again.
This time, Gu Chenxi was no longer sitting on the bed, but standing in front of a white wall. She changed her pajamas into a Chanel-style jacket with a dark gray sweater underneath - she had not had time to change her pajamas on the lower body.
The white wall was actually the toilet in her bedroom. In less than a minute, Gu Chenxi only had time to change her clothes. Her hair was still a little messy, so she threw it all behind her.
Gu Chenxi, who was standing in front of the screen, shouted in a pleasant voice, "Hello, Grandpa!"
Gu Chenxi thought to herself, "I hope Gong Liu's grandfather didn't see my embarrassing appearance just now... He must not see it! You left a bad impression when meeting an elder for the first time. Gu Chenxi, you are doomed!"
The old man said with a smile: "Hello, little girl, you are Xiao Kong's girlfriend, right?"
Gu Chenxi blushed and said in a shy voice: "Yes...yes, grandpa...grandpa, I...I am your grandson's...girlfriend. I didn't expect...to meet you...in this way. It's really...insolent...after some time, I...I will come to say hello to you in person..."
At this moment, Gu Chenxi looked like a young girl who had just started out, acting shy and stammering.
"Okay, okay." The old man smiled and nodded, "Grandpa is waiting for you at home. The little girl looks like a gentle and sensible child."
"?!?"
Hearing his grandfather praising Gu Chenxi like this, Kong Liu was a little dumbfounded. He thought to himself: "Grandpa, don't believe her. This little girl has two faces. She was very fierce to me just now. You must have heard it too!"
Gu Chenxi lowered her head a little embarrassed by the old man's praise: "Grandpa, you are too kind."
"You young people, just chat. I won't interrupt you." The old man said, and whispered in Kong Liu's ear, "The food is on the table."
Gong Liu nodded: "Okay sir, I'll go in after a few more words."
After Kong Liu's grandfather walked in, Gu Chenxi's originally tense body softened instantly, and he sat down on the toilet lid and let out a long sigh of relief.
Gu Chenxi covered his chest and said with a look of having survived a disaster: "I was scared to death, why didn't you tell me earlier that your grandfather was next to me!"
"I didn't know my grandpa would suddenly show up." Gong Liu shrugged helplessly, "By the way, how did you manage to change your clothes in seconds?"
"There's no such thing as changing clothes in seconds. Just grab whatever clothes are on the bed and put them on."
As Gu Chenxi spoke, she pointed the camera at her lower body. She was still wearing thick pajamas. Her upper body was in Paris and her lower body was in the village. This weird outfit would only look appropriate at Fashion Week.
Gu Chenxi looked at herself in the mirror and covered her mouth and laughed. She said to Gong Liu, "Hahaha, I can't stand it anymore. I'm disgusted by my own outfit, haha..."
Gong Liu also smiled and said to her: "I won't chat with you for now. I'm going to have dinner with my grandfather. I'll call you later when I get home."
"Okay...wait a minute!" Gu Chenxi stopped him before Kong Liu hung up the phone, and asked, "When your grandfather saw me so sloppy just now, would...would he have a bad first impression of me?"
"No, my grandfather is a good person." Kong Liu comforted Gu Chenxi, "Let's not talk about it for now."
After hanging up the phone, Kong Liu returned to the restaurant again. The dishes were already served and his grandfather was sitting in his original seat, waiting for him.
There are only two of them eating tonight, so grandpa asked the kitchen to prepare small portions of dishes. Basically, the portion of each dish is one or two bites, never more. If there is too much and cannot be finished, it will be wasted. To grandpa, wasting food is an unforgivable thing.
There were only two people sitting in the empty restaurant. On the large dining table were a dozen exquisite, small dishes.
According to the rules of the Kong family, people are not allowed to chat while eating, but the old man took the initiative to break this rule today.
"How long have you been talking to this little girl?"
"About... one year and four months?"
Gong Yoo also included the time he spent in an online relationship with Gu Chenxi.
"Stinky boy!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Kong Liu was hit on the head by his grandfather again.
"You actually hid it from me, your grandfather, and dated for a year?" The old man was a little angry. "If I hadn't found out today, would you have continued to lie to me and said you weren't in a relationship?"
"Ahem." Gong Liu covered his forehead and tried to awaken his grandfather's last bit of love for him with an aggrieved expression, "I'm just afraid that you will be unhappy if you know."
"Can I be happy if you hide it from me?"
Upon hearing this, the old man hit Gong Yoo on the other side of his forehead again.
Okay, now both sides of my head are starting to hurt.
Gong Liu held his head in his hands and said sincerely: "I'm wrong, I'm wrong. Don't be angry, I will tell you the first time I have anything to say next time."
"Hmph, you still have some conscience." The old man snorted and continued, "You can't be like your father. Just because you have a wife, you forget about me, an old man. There are also things to manage the company. When you fall in love, you can't forget about the family..."
"Okay, okay." Gong Liu didn't care what his grandfather said, he just kept nodding and agreeing.
In fact, Gong Yoo didn't expect that his grandfather, who had never supported his relationship, would be so easy to talk to today. He thought his grandfather would be furious after knowing about his relationship.
After dinner, Kong Liu did not leave. He planned to stay in the manor with his grandfather for a few days.
The Kong family’s manor is called a manor, but in fact the entire hilltop is the Kong family’s territory. It takes half a day to drive around the manor.
Usually, grandpa likes to walk around the mansion alone after dinner. Today, Gong Yoo was there and he didn't go out, so the grandfather and grandson sat in the empty yard in the middle of the mansion and chatted.
Each of them had a recliner, covered with a thick mink blanket, so they wouldn't feel cold even if the temperature outside was very low.
Gong Yoo looked up at the stars in the sky, and he remembered when he was a child, on a hot summer night, his grandfather was in this yard, holding him in his arms, rocking in a recliner, and telling him stories.
Childhood is always so beautiful.
The old man saw that Gong Liu's eyes were full of thoughts, so he asked, "What are you thinking about?"
Gong Yoo closed his eyes and said, "I want to go back to my childhood..."
"Hahaha." Hearing his grandson's words, the grandfather laughed, "Who doesn't want to be young again?"
Gong Liu suddenly asked: "Grandpa, why did you make so much money when you were young?"
"For..." A trace of sadness flashed across Mr. Kong's eyes: "For a full meal..."
