1107 MEET THE PARENTS (II)SECRETARY Gao felt very uncomfortable. He was in the private room of a high-end restaurant that served authentic Sichuan cuisines. He was sitting at a round table full of delicious food. Like kung pao chicken, spicy fish stew, twice-cooked pork, and many others. But somehow, he couldn't appreciate any of these dishes. Because he felt like he shouldn't be here.
He sitting across a national-level artist. To his left sat the said artist's wife. And to Secretary Gao's right sat the third young master. To the other side of the young master sat the national-level artist's daughter. Somehow, he just ended having lunch with these four.
About 45 minutes ago, after he finished talking with the director of the museum, he went back the where he left the third young master. But surprisingly, or maybe unsurprisingly, the other wasn't there.
He tried to call the other, but the call never connected. It continued to ring, but it was never picked up. He could only think of two reasons for that. Either the phone was on silent mode or the third young master just refused to answer his call. He hoped it was the former.
Secretary Gao knew that he couldn't just wait there, so he walked around the museum to look for the third young master. But his foolish self got immersed in the paintings instead.
While he was caught up in admiring the paintings like the other museum visitors, he suddenly realized that he had forgotten to look for the third young master. It was at this moment that he received a call from the young master.
The other only told him to go to the entrance used for VIPs and wait for him there. Secretary Gao didn't have time to ask what he meant because he immediately hung up the phone. At the end, he could only go to where the other told him to go.
He didn't have to wait long, and the third young master appeared. It's just that, he wasn't alone. He was with the family of Master Su Cheng Han. He didn't know who the other was. But after he found out, he was completely confused. Before he knew it, they were already heading to a restaurant to eat lunch.
And this was the situation now.
"Is the food not to your liking, Mr. Secretary?"
The sudden question of Master Su's wife startled Secretary Gao. As a professional secretary, he quickly managed his expression and the usual business smile appeared on his face.
"How could that be, Madam? I was just too overwhelmed to share a meal with such an amazing artist as Master Su."
When Secretary Gao saw Master Su laughing as if he appreciated that response, he secretly let out a sigh of relief. For the rest of this lunch, he decided to remain quietly seated unless someone addressed him first. He would no longer dwell on the connection between the third young master and this family. After all, his role here was solely to ensure the third young master's safety and to prevent him from causing any trouble.
With that, he started eating as if the dishes in front of him were the most delicious food in the world.
Seeing the secretary finally eating, Chen Jiahui turned her attention to the young man sitting beside her daughter. Or should she say, teenager? When she heard that the other was only 17 years old, it really came off as a big surprise to her.
When she saw Luo Jin entering the private lounge earlier, she thought he was a friend of her daughter's from school. But it turned out that he was much younger. Another welcome surprise was that the other was the one who protected Yuqi during that commotion that ended up in a police station.
How frightened she was at that time. Even though her daughter was a bit of a rebel, she had never been involved in a fight. Imagine how surprised and scared she was when she received that phone call. Thankfully, everything ended well.
Chen Jiahui already knew that Luo Jin was a friend that Yuqi met in that game her daughter would always play. And it also just happened that he was the cousin of Bai Ze, one of Yuqi's longest friend. So, the information that the other was from S City also reached her.
The question that had been circling in her mind since earlier was: Why would a teenager travel this far just to visit a museum? The only logical reason she could think of right now was because of Yuqi's birthday.
She looked at her daughter and then at the teenager. As she was thinking, her gaze looking at the two also slowly turned meaningful.
Luo Jin, on the other hand, was just mechanically eating the food in front of him. Even if he appeared calm, his inside was still a nervous mess. It was mostly because he was afraid he might do something that could leave a bad impression on Su Yuqi's parents.
He already knew that it would be tough to get Uncle Su's permission if ever Su Yuqi agreed to be with him. So, while that still hadn't happened, it's best to leave a good impression on the other. Of course, not just him, but also Su Yuqi's mother.
But how could he do that when he was such a nervous wreck right now?
Then he suddenly felt something tapping his left foot. He subconsciously glanced at Su Yuqi, who was sitting on his left. The other raised her head to look at him. And then, an encouraging smile appeared on her pretty face. As if telling him that there's nothing to be nervous about.
Suddenly, all the nervousness he's feeling just melted. And all he could think of right now was how beautiful Su Yuqi was.
That lasted for about five seconds. Because Uncle Su suddenly asked;
"But how come you're in the museum today?" Then, as if he had thought of a possible answer, he looked at Luo Jin with suspicion. "Is it for Qiqi?"
And just like that, Luo Jin's nervousness came back a hundredth-fold.
