Chapter 2506 - 2507: Getting Better at Holding Hands
"Alright, eat up, or else the food’s going to get cold." Nangong Yue picked up his chopsticks, signaling Gu Mian to start eating.
"Okay." Gu Mian picked up her chopsticks. To be honest, she was already hungry, considering she’d been on a long flight and was really tired.
"By the way." Nangong paused as if suddenly remembering something and raised his eyebrow, asking, "Is Flavor of Jiangnan really yours?"
"Yeah." Nangong Yue nodded.
Gu Mian blinked. The style of Flavor of Jiangnan indeed seemed like Nangong Yue’s style—understated and reserved, giving off a very comfortable feeling.
"I’ve been dining here often and you’ve never mentioned it!" Gu Mian pouted. "You never even gave me the lowest discount price!"
"The price I gave you is already the lowest discounted price." Nangong Yue chuckled. "After all, it’s the government footing the bill."
Gu Mian thought about it and realized it was true. The people she brought here to dine got a 25% discount, which wasn’t too low. The dishes at Flavor of Jiangnan were fresh and exquisite, so probably not cheap to make.
"But from now on, if you bring work colleagues to dine here, it’s on the house." Nangong Yue quirked his lips into an elegant smile.
"Won’t that lead to significant losses?" Gu Mian also laughed. "There are lots of government dinners."
"What I mean is you can have a free meal here, and still claim the expenses. The reimbursement would be all yours then." Nangong Yue replied.
"What?" Gu Mian’s eyes widened, and she couldn’t help but feel excited. "Is there really such a good deal?"
It’s worth noting that Golden Palace spends nearly ten million annually here, which is quite a considerable income!
"Of course, you’re Mrs. Nangong now." Nangong Yue gracefully chewed a bite of greens, "From now on, the income here is yours as well. You can run it as you wish, no need to specifically check with me."
With Nangong Yue saying this, Gu Mian felt a little embarrassed and couldn’t help blushing. "I’d rather not."
"Why not?" Nangong Yue asked in return. "We’re officially married now, the income here is our joint property from today. Aren’t you going to manage your own assets?"
Gu Mian: "..."
Is this really an option?
Gu Mian was stunned, but what Nangong Yue said was also true. She agreed, but whether she decides to take it, manage it, or be in charge of it, that was up to her.
"Alright, got it." Gu Mian nodded.
"Okay." Nangong Yue nodded as well. "Then hurry up and eat, let’s head home and rest after."
After saying this, he continued to eat calmly and elegantly, while Gu Mian was lost in her thoughts.
Head home?
Which home?
His home?
This...
Oh my, is he scary or what?
With such thoughts in mind, the two continued their meal.
"Done eating?" Nangong Yue put down his bowl and chopsticks and asked gently.
"Yes." Gu Mian nodded.
"Then let’s go." Nangong Yue stood up.
Gu Mian also stood up, and when Nangong Yue walked out of the booth, he naturally took her hand, just like a couple in love.
Gu Mian followed behind, not able to help but glance at his back, secretly thinking how smoothly Professor Nangong had become at holding hands!
The two walked out, and Manager Liu and others naturally gathered around.
In fact, Nangong Yue is usually very low-key, he doesn’t allow the staff to reveal his identity when dining.
But Manager Liu had sharp eyes and of course noticed the unusual relationship between Nangong Yue and Gu Mian.
Because Nangong Yue had never brought a woman here before, and now they were holding hands!
