Yu Minmin’s father quickly walked towards the car and tapped on it . However, when the car window finally winded down, he froze instantly .
Because the person before him was Mr . President in the flesh .
Of course, Yu Minmin’s father had not imagined that this would happen .
Immediately, he hastily removed his hand and moved a step backward .
It had never occurred to him that he would meet Mr . President like this .
For a moment, Yu Minmin’s father did not dare to speak . Thinking that this person before him was the almighty Mr . President, he immediately bowed and said, “Nice to meet you, Mr . President . ”
Yu Minmin glanced at her father . “If there’s nothing else, you should leave . ”
“Oh, right . Yes, yes . I’m leaving . Take your time driving around . ”
Yu Minmin looked at her father’s cautious manner at present . She shook her head and got into Gu Jingming’s car .
Yu Minmin’s father stayed behind the car with his body bowed and only stood upright after it had driven far away .
He was still thinking to himself, If only those **** inside knew that the President himself had come personally to pick him up, then they probably would not have dared to say anything .
In the car, Yu Minmin looked at Gu Jingming .
He was driving silently with his slender fingers gripping the steering wheel . His eyes were looking straight ahead and his handsome side profile looked as cold and cheerless as a chilly night .
The pleasant scent from his body drifted in the air . It seemed as if his clothes had been scented with some special fragrance . The scent was unique and lingered faintly in the air . It smelled like grass and was particularly sweet and fresh . It was very befitting of his aura .
Yu Minmin said, “Thank you for sending me here today . ”
“It’s alright . Where do you want to go now?”
“I don’t have a particular destination in mind . Since we’re outside, we might as well take a walk . ”
Gu Jingming cast a sideways glance at her .
Yu Minmin said, “If I go back now, I’ll definitely have to learn the classics…”
Just then, Yu Minmin’s stomach started growling .
With her hand on her stomach, Yu Minmin was stunned for a moment .
Gu Jingming looked at her . “Let’s eat something before going back . ”
“Really? Sure . ”
“What do you want to eat?”
“Anything is fine . Why don’t we eat hotpot? I’m not allowed to eat hotpot in the Glazed Tile Palace . I haven’t eaten it for a long time . ”
Gu Jingming looked at her and nodded .
Coincidentally, there was a steamboat restaurant by the roadside . Yu Minmin said, “Let’s go to this one . I think I ate here once before . It was very good . ”
In no time, Gu Jingming smoothly reversed the car and parked it by the road .
The moment the parking attendant saw such a good car, he very politely gestured for them to park in one of the better parking spots without hesitation . He was particularly respectful towards Yu Minmin and Gu Jingming .
“Welcome to our restaurant . ” After the two of them entered, Gu Jingming kept a low profile and did not speak . The people beside them could not help but sneak a few more glances at Gu Jingming when they saw him . At the same time, they dared not look at him directly and could only look him over in secret . They thought to themselves that this person looked exactly like Mr . President .
Yu Minmin said, “Do you have any more private rooms?”
“We do, Miss . This way, please . ”
In no time, the two of them were led inside . The waiter continued to stare at Gu Jingming . However, by the time they had disappeared inside, he still had not dared to confirm whether or not the person before him was Mr . President .
But when he left the room, he asked around with an expression of complete excitement, “That person I saw earlier looked extraordinarily like Mr . President . ”
“There’s no way . Why would Mr . President come to our small restaurant to eat?”
“Precisely . So I didn’t dare to confirm it either . It’s possible that he just looks like him . ”
“Then, why were you still staring at him?”
“He’s just too handsome . ”
Gu Jingming looked at his surroundings while Yu Minmin said, “The servings here are particularly large . I came here to eat once . But I couldn’t come again after I got too busy . This restaurant may look small, but the food is really good . ”
“Hm . ”
Yu Minmin saw that Gu Jingming was looking around nonstop . “What are you looking at? Is it because you haven’t come to such a small shop before?”
“I’ve come here before,” he said .
“Oh, really? You actually came here before?”
“I come to make presidential visits . ”
“…” Alright then . His answer was too posh and she could not really get used to it at the moment .
Soon after, the food was served .
Yu Minmin had ordered a Yin-Yang hotpot with both spicy and non-spicy broths . She dipped the ingredients into the pot, thinking to herself that after not eating hotpot for so long, it literally tasted better than any delicacy .
The people in the Glazed Tile Palace paid too much attention to nutrition . Healthy meals simply tasted too terrible . However, they had to do it for the sake of the President’s health .
Yu Minmin sighed in pleasure, “Wow, it’s so delicious…”
However, she only looked up just then and noticed Gu Jingming across her .
He was only eating the food in the clear broth . Using his chopsticks, he gently picked out the food from inside before slowly putting it into his mouth . He was eating a lot with slow and methodical movements . His movements were so elegant as if he was eating Western cuisine .
He looked truly handsome .
Instinctively, Yu Minmin adjusted her posture and no longer dared to make such huge movements .
“Um, why don’t you eat the food in the spicy broth? The clear broth doesn’t taste as good as the spicy broth . ”
Gu Jingming said coolly, “No need . ”
He looked up and saw that Yu Minmin’s mouth was bright red from the spiciness of the broth . She looked as if her mouth had just been bitten . It was so red and moist .
After taking a long glance, he finally shifted his gaze and said to her, “Quick, just eat your food . ”
Yu Minmin shrugged . “Fine then . Since you don’t know how to enjoy such good food, then I’ll be the one to eat it . ”
“Does your father gamble at that place?”
“Yes . If he goes there without money and loses all his gambling tokens, we have to pay the money to get him out . ”
Gu Jingming asked, “Does your family still live in the small neighborhood there?”
“Yes . It’s the one that you saw . In the past, my younger brother shared a room with my parents . Now that I’ve moved out, he’s using my room . ”
Hearing this, Gu Jingming nodded silently . From his gaze, it seemed that he was thinking deeply about something .
After some time, he suggested, “I have a piece of property near the Glazed Tile Palace . It’s located three streets away from the Glazed Tile Palace . I think this distance is just right . Why don’t you ask them to move over there?”
“Huh?” Yu Minmin looked up . “That wouldn’t be good, right?”
“There’s nothing bad about it . It will be convenient for my subordinates to watch over them and make sure that your father doesn’t cause any trouble . ”
“…” If this was the reason for it, then Yu Minmin had nothing more to say .
She just looked at Gu Jingming . “Then… I’ll thank you on behalf of my mother and younger brother . ”
“It’s fine . ”
Gu Jingming put his utensils down and looked at Yu Minmin . She was smiling faintly and her face was a little red due to the spicy broth .
Her eyes were also moist due to the spiciness and she looked as if tears could start falling at any moment .
He said, “That’s enough . Stop eating . You’ll feel unwell if you eat too much . ”
“It’s alright, it’s alright . We won’t get sick since we’re used to eating this . ”
“We have to go for a presidential visit tomorrow . I don’t want you to get diarrhea on the way there . ”
Alright then . She had actually forgotten about the visit .
Yu Minmin could only put down her utensils and say, “In that case, let’s go . ”
Gu Jingming looked up and called out to the waiter, “Bring some dessert here . ”
Then, he said to her, “Eat a bit of the dessert to relieve the pressure on your stomach . ”
