Chapter 118 - Don't waste the job; come back to work.
Pei Ge alighted from the cab and looked at the small restaurant that she had not been to for so long.
The restaurant was still in business despite the many years that had passed; even its door sign had not changed.
“How nostalgic.” Pei Ge looked at the shop with a sentimental smile and walked through its door.
Although its exterior did not change, its interior had quite a transformation.
Basically, except for the owner, everything else was different.
Pei Ge was slightly disappointed by its new look and began to feel uncertain about whether the food would taste the same as she remembered it or not.
“Waiter, please give me a bowl of beef noodles – big serving,” Pei Ge ordered after occupying a seat by the window.
Cousin?!
Pei Ge stopped moving the chopsticks in her hand.
“This restaurant’s beef noodles are really delicious even after all these years. I found out that this restaurant is still doing business when I happened to pass by the other day. I went in and ate a bowl of noodles. Surprisingly, it tasted the same as before; it’s still delicious,” he explained gently. “When I drove by, I decided to bring you here and try the delicious beef noodles.”
Pei Ge felt slightly awkward when she heard his explanation.
This restaurant was also introduced to her by Zhou Zhuoyang, and he gave her a similar explanation.
“Oh, I see.” Pei Shishi was clearly not persuaded by his words. From her tone of voice, one could tell that she did not want to eat in this restaurant at all.
“Don’t be like this. I promise that you won’t regret coming to this restaurant with me after having a taste of that soup.” He chuckled as he gently persuaded her cousin.
“Oh, alright.” Her cousin finally agreed with a smile.
Hearing the two people’s voices getting closer and closer, Pei Ge began to have an ominous feeling inside. Zhou Zhuoyang and Pei Shishi would not sit near her, right?
Ah!
Pei Ge, who had her head lowered as she ate the beef noodles, suddenly widened her eyes when she dejectedly thought of something.
How could she have forgotten such an important thing?!
Right now, she was sitting on her and Zhou Zhuoyang’s favorite seat. Damn it! Why did she choose this seat earlier?!
However, that was not right! How would she know that, after all these years, the man would actually go here to eat, and it would be on the same day as her?
“Eh.” The sight of someone else occupying his usual seat stunned him. When he walked a few more steps forward, he suddenly stopped and looked dazedly at the woman who was eating with her head lowered.
Why was she here? Why would she come to this restaurant that they used to frequent as a couple?
“What’s wrong, Zhuoyang?” Gripping Zhou Zhuoyang’s arm, Pei Shishi frowned when the man suddenly stopped his footsteps and lifted his head with eyes full of complicated emotions.
Following his gaze, her forehead creased deeply.
Pei Ge?
Feeling the burning gaze coming from behind her, Pei Ge did not feign ignorance and openly welcomed them.
“Cousin, what a coincidence to meet you again.”
