Chapter 384: Mousse Cake

This time… Gu Xiao sized up Ji Chen. Ji Chen had obviously arrived early this time.
During this period of time, Ji Chen basically did not have time to arrive early.
Hearing Gu Xiao’s question, Ji Chen smiled slightly. “Tomorrow is the Mid-Autumn Festival, so I took half a day off in advance.” This was what the higher-ups of Radiant had discussed before.
In fact, Radiant’s employees did not have much to do this morning. The only ones who were busier were the employees who had not completed their previous tasks.
As for Ji Chen… he had too many things to do. For the sake of the rest of the holiday and to meet Gu Xiao earlier today, he had arrived at Radiant early this morning and had handled most of the documents properly.
As for the rest, he was not in a hurry to deal with them in the next two days.
Ji Chen exchanged a few words with Gu Xiao before informing the waiter that they needed to order.
When Ji Chen got the menu and saw the mousse cake on the dessert menu, he was in a daze for a moment.
In his dark dream, Gu Xiao liked mousse cake the most because it was sweet and delicious. The moment she ate it, Gu Xiao showed how much she loved mousse cake.
As for the mousse cake, he was the one who brought it back when he found out that his sister had been swapped and that Gu Xiao had been found.
He did not know what young girls liked, so he could only casually choose a mousse cake according to someone else’s recommendation.
But… after that, Gu Xiao never ate mousse cake again.
Thinking of some scenes in the dream, Ji Chen subconsciously exerted more strength, and the menu also showed a few wrinkles because of his actions.
Gu Xiao, who was looking at the menu, sensed that something was wrong with Ji Chen. She turned around and looked at Ji Chen, her usually calm eyes carrying some worry.
“Brother?”
Gu Xiao’s voice rang in Ji Chen’s ears, pulling back his thoughts that seemed to have fallen into a swamp.
He came back to his senses and blinked. When he met Gu Xiao’s worried gaze, he subconsciously smiled.
“I’m fine.”
After he finished speaking, he turned his attention to the menu again without waiting for Gu Xiao’s reaction.
After Ji Chen ordered a long string of dishes that he knew Gu Xiao liked, his eyes fell on the mousse cake. After pondering for a long time, he said to the waiter, “I will have a serving of mousse cake later.”
Gu Xiao looked at the list of orders and compared the dishes on the menu. She found that all the dishes that Ji Chen ordered were her favorites, but he did not order anything that he liked.
Ji Chen handed the menu to the waiter and then looked at Gu Xiao. “Xiaoxiao, do you have anything else you want to eat?”
Gu Xiao looked up from the menu and glanced at Ji Chen helplessly.
“Brother, you’ve almost ordered all of them.” There was a hint of a smile and happiness in Gu Xiao’s tone.
Having said that, Gu Xiao lowered her head again and ordered a few dishes that she knew Ji Chen liked.
Ji Chen looked at Gu Xiao’s choice with a smile in his eyes. What followed was an indescribable heartache and regret.
If what happened in his dream was true, what state did Gu Xiao look at him in now? How did she endure those conflicts, and accept his concern now?
Ji Chen was letting his imagination run wild. Before Gu Xiao realized it, he kept these thoughts to himself.
After the food was served, Ji Chen did not ask about the dream, nor did Gu Xiao directly ask about Ji Chen’s condition these few days.contemporary romance
By the time the meal was over, most of the other things had been eaten, except for the piece of mousse cake that Ji Chen had specially ordered, which was not touched at all.
It was still the same as before.
Ji Chen looked at the mousse cake on the dining table and blinked his slightly sore eyes.
“Xiaoxiao…” Ji Chen’s voice was choked with emotion. “Do you hate mousse cake?”
‘Do you hate me and everything in that world?’
Hearing Ji Chen’s question, Gu Xiao could not react for a while. After all, the first life was too far away for her.
The mousse cake, which she liked very much in her first life and could not even ask for, now did not occupy much weight in her memory.
However, subconsciously, she was still a little resistant to what she could only wish for in her first life..
