Garden of Time and Space

Chapter 44

For a few days, Xie Jiao didn't see Zeng Li again, and she didn't go to Wu Nuan either, because many subject teachers had prepared mid-term quizzes recently, and because she missed a lot of classes a while ago, she usually got less, so The test score must be higher to pass, so recently she went straight to the library to study after class.

Until noon on Friday, Xie Jiao received a text message from Wu Nuan.

Wu Nuan: [Jiaojiao, do you have time tonight? Li Jiu will go to practice next Monday, and he, Zhang Luo, will have a gathering with everyone. Tonight at 5 o'clock, the old chef's private room 206.You must come when you are free. 】

Li Jiu is finally going to practice.

Xie Jiao turned off her phone, of course she will go, she has to go even if she is not free.

After class in the afternoon, Xie Jiao greeted her roommates and told them that she had an appointment with Wu Nuan tonight, so she didn't want to eat with them, and then went directly to the restaurant.

In the evening when classes are over, the streets in front of the school are filled with all kinds of delicious roadside stalls, and there are students who come out to buy dinner everywhere. Xie Jiao smells the fragrance and shuttles among the crowd, although the crowds are not as crowded as usual It was easy to walk, but also because of the excitement, Xie Jiao felt that the road seemed to be shortened invisible.

At the door of the old chef, Xie Jiao was about to go in, but just as she reached the first step in front of the door, Xie Jiao retreated.

She stood in front of the door, staring at the plaque above her head that said "Old Chef".

She came into this world from here.

Li Jiu, the number one suspect in the Wu Nuan incident, was an intern, and Zhang Luo was eating here. Would there be any special significance?Or is there a hint in it?

Xie Jiao was thinking, looking at the students who were entering the restaurant one after another, she felt that she should be worrying too much.

It's not just Li Jiu, college students from nearby universities will almost always choose this place to order meals. The food prices here are reasonable and the environment is good. The most important thing is that the private rooms are not cheap. All come here.

Xie Jiao smiled at her sensitivity speechlessly, then walked in.

She didn't come too late, but when she walked to private room 206 and opened the door, there were already a dozen people sitting at a large table that could seat 20 people.

She also saw Zeng Li in the crowd.

Except for Zeng Li, she didn't know the rest of the people, most of them were boys, and some people brought girlfriends, but they should all be people from business schools or other schools who have a good relationship with Li Jiu.

Seeing Xie Jiao push the door in, Wu Nuan hurriedly greeted Xie Jiao, introduced her briefly to everyone, and then arranged for Xie Jiao to sit next to Zeng Li.

There is no difference in what you eat for a meal, it is just for Li Jiu to go to an internship, everyone toasts to celebrate, and talk about feelings and reminiscing about the old days.

During the dinner, everyone ate, drank and chatted, but Xie Jiao kept paying attention to Wu Nuan and Li Jiu who were opposite her.

Wu Nuan helped Li Jiu pick up dishes several times, and told him not to just drink, but to eat something first. After that, she picked up a large piece of fish and began to concentrate on picking.

Normal people pick fish while eating, but Wu Nuan has been picking the thorns carefully, without eating a bite, until all the fish are picked, she pokes the fish meat with chopsticks and then turns over to check. After confirming that it was completely peeled off, she put the fish into Li Jiu's bowl.

But Li Jiu picked it up and ate it naturally.There was no surprise, no touch, not even a word of thanks.

Xie Jiao was dumbfounded.

Afterwards, Wu Nuan asked the waiter for a bowl of water. When Xie Jiao was curious about what she was going to do, Wu Nuan took the boiled pork slices and rinsed them in the water, then put them into Li Jiu's bowl.
