Chapter 78 The Taste of Gesha
Two days later, Ling Yue received a call from Gu Chenxin, and they agreed to meet at a cafe downstairs in Gu's headquarters building.
His figure was straight and upright under the light grey shirt. Perhaps since it was not a formal occasion, Gu Chenxin did not wear a formal British shirt.
His shirt was slightly loose, and he was not wearing a tie, with the top button undone.
He sat by the window in the cafe, ordered a glass of Geisha for Ling Yue, and slowly sipped a cup of hand-brewed coffee himself.
"How is it? Does it suit your taste? This is my mom's favorite coffee. You're as strong as she is, so I thought maybe you'd like the taste of this Gesha too!"
He chatted with Ling Yue over coffee, trying to ease his tension...
"It tastes delicious, thank you! I've known you for so long, but today is the only time I truly understand you. All the information I knew about you before was from the special forces files."
Ling Yue seemed to be reminding him all the time that their relationship was not good enough for marriage.
Listening to what Ling Yue said, Gu Chenxin felt disappointed but also somewhat relieved.
He was glad that Ling Yue no longer rejected him like before, and she began to be willing to understand him.
"So, Yue'er, we..." Gu Chen thought about it, but still didn't ask the question he wanted to know most.
"I called you here today to tell you that this badge of yours is of great value. Its owner can freely mobilize any forces within our group and the border to serve his own purposes."
Although Gu Chenxin didn't want Ling Yue to get involved again, he understood Ling Yue.
If I continue to hide anything from her, the day Ling Yue finds out the truth will be the day I lose her completely.
"That means the last action was a setup by him?" Ling Yue made her own judgment after hearing Gu Chenxin's information.
"You can say that..." Gu Chenxin replied.
Ling Yue's brows knitted together slightly, and she fell into deep thought...
She gently stirred the coffee spoon with her hand, her eyes revealing a hint of solemnity.
"Do you think this person is the one we've been looking for? He's been playing us in the palm of his hand for so many years."
Gu Chenxin shook his head slightly. "I can't be sure, but it's very likely. This person is hiding too deeply."
Ling Yue put down the coffee cup and looked straight into Gu Chenxin's eyes.
"Then why are you telling me all this? Aren't you afraid that if I continue investigating, it will bring you trouble?"
Gu Chenxin looked at Ling Yue with a slight smile on his face.
"I'm afraid, but I'm more afraid of losing you. I know you won't give up easily. Rather than letting you fall into danger without knowing it, I might as well tell you everything I know."
Ling Yue was startled.
Ever since that night, she could feel Gu Chenxin's sincerity.
"Thank you, Gu Chenxin. But I must get to the bottom of this matter no matter what. It's not just for myself, do you understand?"
Gu Chen looked at Ling Yue with understanding and nodded.
"I understand. I can't stop you. But I have a way. Maybe it's worth a try."
Ling Yue asked in surprise, "What method?"
Gu Chenxin stretched out his hand to Ling Yue, motioning her to hand over the badge to him.
"Next, let me reveal this secret. Leave it to me. Trust me."
Then, the two discussed for a while in the cafe.
After listening to what Gu Chenxin said, Ling Yue thought to herself that although she couldn't find a better way at the moment, she still felt a little worried about Gu Chenxin.
Looking at Ling Yue's excited expression, Gu Chenxin patted the back of her hand comfortingly.
"What are you thinking about? Don't forget, I'm not a vegetarian!"
"Okay, I'll leave it to you." Ling Yue nodded.
"Yuer, I want to take you somewhere to meet someone."
Seeing that it was still early for dinner, Gu Chenxin invited Ling Yue.
"Where?"
"Come with me..." Gu Chenxin stood up and walked out of the cafe with Ling Yue.
Gu Chenxin drove Ling Yue to his private car.
As Gu Chenxin stepped on the accelerator, he shook off the "tail" that had been following them.
"So you've also noticed that someone has been watching us?"
Ling Yue couldn't help but tease Gu Chenxin as she watched him show off his driving skills in front of her.
Gu Chenxin's mouth corners slightly raised, revealing a confident smile.
"Of course. I've noticed it since we met. These people are really haunting."
Ling Yue frowned slightly, "Who sent them? Why are they monitoring us?"
Gu Chenxin replied while concentrating on driving, "It's not clear yet, but it's definitely related to the owner of the badge. Do you think that person knows that the badge is in our hands?"
While Gu Chenxin was asking Ling Yue, he became more certain of the feasibility of his method.
Maybe if we just try, the fox's tail will be revealed.
After getting rid of those people, Gu Chenxin's car drove on the road to the outskirts of South City.
Ling Yue was silent for a moment, then said, "Where are we going now? Who are we meeting?"
Gu Chenxin smiled mysteriously, "You'll know when you get there."
The car sped along the road and the scenery outside the window quickly receded.
Ling Yue was full of curiosity and anticipation, wondering who Gu Chenxin was going to take her to meet.
Could it be him?
After a while, the car arrived at the gate of a quiet courtyard on the outskirts of South City.
Gu Chenxin stopped the car, turned to look at Ling Yue, and raised the corners of his mouth slightly, "Goddess, we're here!"
Ling Yue looked at the small courtyard in front of him, his heart full of doubts.
"Where is this? Is the person we want to meet here?"
Gu Chenxin nodded, "Yes, that's right, come with me."
