Chapter 2717: This child looks like Master Gu.
Pardon her ignorance, but this was the first time she had come across a person who had never had KFC in his life.
“We have burgers, wings, fries, egg tarts… and colas here; all of which are Western-style fast-food meals.”
As the cashier rattled these off with difficulty, her back was already dense in a cold sweat.
“What is a burger?” asked Baby Chu curiously.
“…A burger is a burger.”
“What’s an egg tart? Is it delicious?”
The boy imagined the dish to be a ‘tower’ made up of countless eggs.
This was of course his first time dining in such a ‘luxurious’ restaurant; the things on the menu looked delicious, but he had never seen any of them.
The cashier answered awkwardly once again, “…It’s quite tasty.”
“Wow wow!” The child pulled Gu Jinglian’s sleeve excitedly. “Uncle, uncle, this beautiful sister said the egg tart is delicious! Can I have an egg tart?”
The corners of the man’s lips twitched as he took the menu, pointed to a children’s set meal, and said, “Two of this.”
“A-A-Altogether, seventy-eight yuan. Paying by cash or PayPal?”
The moment she asked that, a man in black suddenly strode in, pulled out a pile of notes from his wallet, and fished one out for her.
The cashier almost wanted to kneel on the ground to collect the money. After she gave the change warily, Gu Jinglian walked to a cabin seat with the boy jumping alongside. The small, white puppy l followed suit with its tongue hanging out.
Not long after, the waiter presented the set meal to them. The freshly made burger was fluffy and tempting, and along with everything else, such as the freshly squeezed fries and the sparkling cola, it was a complete novelty to the boy!
He held the burger in his hand as if it was an offering and carefully removed the wrapper of the burger. When the aroma wafted into his nostrils, he could hardly care about being reserved and took a bite without hesitation.
“Wow!”
It’s so tasty!
Baby Chu felt that the whole world was glowing as the amazing deliciousness sent him to cloud nine!
This was probably the best thing he had ever eaten!
“Two sandwiches with meat; why is it called ‘burger’? How strange is that?”
As he ate, his eyes inspected the plate’s content greedily. He grabbed a French fry and brought it into his mouth, eating the piece with gusto.
Gu Jinglian rested his cheek lazily in his palm, gazing carelessly outside the window at the nightscape, his slender fingers tapping lightly on the tabletop.
At one side, one of his men suddenly noticed something amazing.
“Master Gu, this child has very similar eyes to yours.”
The man returned to his senses and glanced at the boy, only to see him gulping down the burger, with his mouth stuffed to a bulge. Under the bright light, however, the delicate, small face sprang into his sight.
The man did not have a good look at the kid earlier inside the car, for the light was dim.
With his man mentioning it, he took the time to examine the kid’s face carefully. Indeed, the boy’s eyebrows and eyes were somewhat similar to his.
“His nose and mouth are also similar, and he looks very much like you when you were a child!”
That henchman had served him since he was a child, so the former had a vivid recollection of Gu Jinglian’s appearance when he was young.
Noticing that his boss was unmoved, the henchman blurted out with emotions, “When you were small, you were really cute! Your cheeks were round and your big eyes were clear and sparkling…”
“Your opinion isn’t needed.” Gu Jinglian interrupted him.
The man immediately broke into a cold sweat and promptly shut his mouth after saying, “Understood.”
