Chapter 122: Regular Customer
Since it was the only five-star hotel in Dayi City, the interior was utterly grand and magnificent.
Upon entering the hall, a chandelier hung proudly on the vast ceiling, illuminating the space with an extravagant radiance.
She felt like she slowly entered another world as she walked into the hotel.
The people who walked past her were clad in smart suits. Besides looking obviously elegant, they emanated the rare aura of a true elite.
Nevertheless, when He Niancheng, dressed in his military uniform, entered the hall with Gu Qingjiu, they still invited the stares of the people inside.
It was probably because a soldier in the hotel wasn’t a common sight.
Gu Qingjiu initially wasn’t bothered, but when she later thought of the possible rumors that could surface, she felt uneasy.
“Chief Instructor, we can go to a lower end hotel to eat.”
This five-star hotel was too luxurious, and it would be an enormous deal for a commoner to visit this place. However, it might cause some issues if people were to find out that a soldier had come here. If someone uploaded photos of them online, it would be difficult for them to clarify appropriately.
However…
The Chief Instructor was handsome!
Gu Qingjiu knew that even if the photos of the Chief Instructor were to circulate online, his dashing looks would become the netizen’s focus instead.
The waiter brought them to the private room which had been reserved beforehand. After sitting down, Gu Qingjiu felt uncomfortable being the commoner she was.
She didn’t even dare to move as she sat awkwardly on the chair.
He Niancheng sat opposite her and gently tossed the menu towards her. “Just order what you feel like eating.”
“I’m not craving anything. Chief Instructor, you can order instead.”
Gu Qingjiu waved her hand, refusing to comply.
She couldn’t just order everything based on her own preferences. What if the Chief Instructor didn’t like the food she ordered?
After all, the Chief Instructor looked like someone who was picky about food.
Right after Gu Qingjiu had spoken, He Niancheng placed his orders smoothly to the waiter near him.
It was clear that he frequently dined there.
Gu Qingjiu was speechless.
She sighed. The Chief Instructor was only just being polite to her.
Seeing that he had ordered several dishes, Gu Qingjiu ordered no more.
When the food was served, the two of them started eating without a word.
In fact, both of them weren’t talkative people. If there wasn’t a need, they wouldn’t be speaking unnecessarily.
This included even when they’re dining.
Gu Qingjiu felt rather guilty.
She ate normally like anyone else, but in the military, she had to wolf down her food in a short period of time.
Compared to the Chief Instructor, she felt that her dining habits were just too boorish.
They were both holding a pair of chopsticks. But how could the Chief Instructor appear so elegant, as though he was in a painting?
She grew even more guilty, and as she ate, she became even more cautious of her actions. After eating, she still felt that she wasn’t full.
However, she would never admit that.
Naturally, the Chief Instructor footed the bill. The waiter didn’t mention the total price and merely passed the bill to He Niancheng for his signature.
Gu Qingjiu wouldn’t be so untactful to ask him either.
After the meal, Gu Qingjiu held the list that Huo Yingcheng passed to her and roamed Dayi City to purchase all the items that the Chief Instructor needed.
Although they drove a jeep, there wouldn’t be sufficient space to put everything that they have bought. However, as they bought in bulk, the seller offered to deliver the items over. When she left her address, the seller smiled brightly and said, “Oh, this is for Commander Huo, right? He is one of my regular customers!”
Wow, Commander Huo—no, it ought to be Chief Instructor—was simply too impressive.
He had only been around for merely two months but had already made a strong impression.
