Chapter 196 Your Preferences
".I'm fine with anything. What would you like to eat, Teacher Guan?"
This meal is hers, so of course the other person should be the priority.
Guan Weizhi held the steering wheel and looked straight ahead, "Then let's go eat Japanese food." After saying that, he looked at her expression in the right rearview mirror.
Of course Qiao Susu agreed and nodded obediently, but she was actually a little nervous inside.
You have to know that the price range of Japanese food is not easy to grasp. You can have a full meal for a few hundred yuan, while thousands of yuan can only buy a bottle of wine.
The Tesla sped along the road and headed directly to the city center. It did not go to the crowded commercial district as imagined, but to a quiet private garden in the bustling city. There were even guards standing outside the door.
Qiao Suisui got out of the car and looked around. There were pavilions, waterside pavilions, and the sound of flutes. It was a very elegant Su-style garden architecture. In this land where every inch of land is valuable, this place didn't look like a restaurant open to the public, but more like the back garden of a wealthy or noble family.
Guan Weizhi took her to the door, where a lady in kimono, speaking unstandard Chinese, bowed deeply to them.
"Oh, Mr. Guan, you haven't been here for a long time. How have you been recently?"
Guan Weizhi had no expression on his face, and nodded as a greeting. He said, "I heard from Yamamoto that there are fresh bluefin breams today, so I'll bring my kids here to try some."
Qiao Susu was stunned for a moment when she heard this, and blinked twice before she realized that she was the "little friend" that Guan Weizi mentioned.
The woman in kimono suddenly smiled brightly, looked at Qiao Susu warmly, and made an elegant "please" gesture.
"Welcome, it's my honor, please come in."
When Qiao Sui Sui just walked over, she saw a lot of cars parked outside the garden. She asked uncertainly, "Do we need to wait for a seat?"
The woman in kimono was startled, looked at Guan Weizhi, covered her mouth and smiled. She said to Qiao Suisui gently, "We have always reserved the seat that Mr. Guan likes for him. There is always a seat for him to come anytime."
She followed the woman in kimono to a room at the deepest part. Two doors were opened from both sides, and what came into view was a cherry blossom garden view outside the floor-to-ceiling windows of the room.
In the center of the room, a low lacquered wooden coffee table stood quietly, on which was placed a set of exquisite ceramic tea sets. The surrounding furnishings were also quite artistic. Qiao Susu walked in and when she sat down, she recognized at a glance that the work hanging on the wall was an authentic work of Song Huizong. In the past, she had only seen works of this level in museums. She did not expect that they would appear in a restaurant today. It can be seen that the owner of this restaurant is not just rich.
However, this boss always keeps a place for Guan Weizhi.
Thinking of this, Qiao Susu glanced at the man opposite her.
The two sat opposite each other, Guan Weizi drank tea quietly, occasionally glancing over.
At this moment, their eyes met. In a microsecond, Qiao Susu was the first to look away and look out the window.
Guan Weizhi thought she was attracted by the cherry blossoms outside the window and said, "It's still early cherry blossoms. If we come later, it will be more beautiful."
In fact, Qiao Susu was not looking at the cherry blossoms. She was just looking at the cherry blossom petals blown down by the wind outside, and wondering if her savings were enough to pay for the meal.
Private gardens, city center, unique landscaping, calligraphy by famous artists, and parked luxury cars. After the meal, she became a gambler from Las Vegas. Being penniless is good, please don't get into debt.
Eating out with Guan Weizhi is too expensive, so I won’t eat there anymore, Qiao Sui Sui thought silently.
Guan Weizhi doesn't talk much, or rather, whenever he attends an event, he doesn't need to say too much, because there will be people to warm up the atmosphere, flatter him, and find topics to talk about, so that the scene won't fall into silence. He just needs to be himself.
But it was obvious that the girl in front of him was different from those people.
She was very quiet, and only answered briefly when he asked her questions, not saying much, nor asking questions on her own initiative. Therefore, Guan Weizhi was a little troubled.
Just like now, he saw that she didn't eat much, and couldn't help asking: "Don't you like Japanese food?"
Qiao Suisui was slightly startled, "How did Teacher Guan know?"
Guan Weizhi paused for a second, looked away, and said, "I guess, don't little girls like to eat these?"
In fact, the so-called Japanese food that Qiao Susu likes is the 299-yuan fast food Japanese food that you get when you win a lottery on Weibo. I guess in Guan Weizhi's eyes, it's not even Japanese food.
She only knew that he was a teacher who taught Introduction to Art before, and later she found out that his family was a leading figure in the financial world. Now, after having a meal with him, her understanding of Guan Weizi has become truly three-dimensional. It turns out that the ordinary things in his world are places that ordinary people may not be able to set foot in or see in their entire lives.
Thinking of this, Qiao Susu felt that her insignificant sincerity in wanting to thank others was really not enough.
So she simply responded and continued to lower her head and concentrate on eating the natto in front of her.
Guan Weizi, however, was becoming a little impatient.
Some time ago, he accidentally discovered Qiao Suisui's Weibo, so he registered an account to follow her. Her homepage is very clean, without any selfies, nor ten haha ...
"Actually, I don't come to this store often." Guan Weizhi suddenly said.
"Oh, is it so."
“I don’t like Japanese food either.”
"So let's go to another one now?"
Guan Weizhi sighed.
Suddenly he felt that there was nothing sad about asking him to take the initiative to show kindness to someone.
He said, "Let me put it this way. I brought you here because I thought you liked Japanese food. If you don't like it, tell me and I'll take you to eat what you like."
Qiao Suisui's hand holding the chopsticks paused in mid-air. She said puzzledly: "Teacher Guan, my preferences are not important. This meal is to thank you. It's most important if you like it..."
"Important." Guan Weizhi looked into her eyes and said, "Your preferences are very important to me."
Qiao Suisui's breath stagnated, her eyes a little flustered, she felt that it was strange for such words to come out of Guan Weizhi's mouth, who was a bit abstinent. She put down her chopsticks and asked, "Teacher Guan, are you..."
When the words came to her lips, Qiao Susu felt that no matter how she asked, it was wrong. Is it something? Putting aside the fact that they were a student and a teacher, could it be that Guan Weizhi, who was of such a high status and status, would like her?
She lowered her head, dispelled the messy thoughts in her mind, and said sincerely: "Teacher Guan, I really want to thank you for helping me get that spot, and I'm also very happy that you are willing to bring me to such a good place to eat. If you don't like Japanese food, how about I treat you to something else another day?"
This time it was Guan Weizhi's turn not to respond. He was silent for a while, looked at her and asked, "Do you really not remember?"
