Chapter 48 - 48 48 Shadow Pavilion

48: Chapter 48 Shadow Pavilion 48: Chapter 48 Shadow Pavilion Gu Zhiqi had just gotten off the bus when someone blocked her way.

Looking at the young man in a suit in front of her, Gu Zhiqi raised her eyebrows, a hint of roguishness creeping into her lethargic gaze, “What, looking for a fight?”

The young man’s mouth twitched as he spoke, “Miss Gu, my boss invites you to get in the car for a chat.”

With that, he pointed to a business car parked not too far away.

Gu Zhiqi: ?

Chat?

Catch up?

A friend of the original host?

Gu Zhiqi had been in this world for about ten days and didn’t really know anyone, so she subconsciously assumed that the person inviting her was a friend of the original host.

It was only after getting on the car that Gu Zhiqi realized that it wasn’t a friend of the original host, but someone she had met before.

The business car had seven seats, and aside from the front passenger seat and the one next to Su Yunling, there were no other spots, so Gu Zhiqi got in the car and went straight to the last row, sitting down next to Su Yunling.

“Little Fairy, Little Fairy, about the thing I mentioned last time, give it some more thought, will you?” As soon as Gu Zhiqi sat down, Su Luo turned around, rested his chin on the cushion, and looked at Gu Zhiqi eagerly.

Gu Zhiqi: ?

She lifted her eyes, glanced at Su Luo.

After a few seconds of silence, she finally spoke, “What thing?”

Su Luo “…”

“The…

entering the entertainment industry thing,” Su Luo said, feeling a bit deflated, with a mournful look on his face as he gazed at Gu Zhiqi.

“Oh, not interested,” Gu Zhiqi replied indifferently, then turned her head to look at Su Yunling, “You were looking for me?”

As soon as Gu Zhiqi got in the car, Su Yunling had set aside the script in her hand.

Hearing Gu Zhiqi’s question, she lifted her eyelids, glanced at Tang Yichen, “He was looking for you.”

Tang Yichen: ?

?

?

Su Luo “…”!!

But it was me who was looking for Little Fairy!

Gu Zhiqi turned her head, looking at Tang Yichen with an inquisitive look.

“Yes, it’s me looking for you,” Tang Yichen snapped back to reality after being dazed for a few seconds, “Gu Xiaoxi, you’re quite divine.

Just the night before last, I really was ambushed and nearly lost my life.

Thankfully, I had your grass.

I just saw you in the car and wanted to thank you.”

“No need, it was just a fair trade,” she replied casually.

Tang Yichen “…”

How am I supposed to respond to that?

Gu Zhiqi replied nonchalantly and then looked down at her phone, her fingers tapping away incessantly, typing at a rapid pace.

Seeing that Tang Yichen didn’t speak for a while, Gu Zhiqi looked up and asked, “Is there anything else?”

Suddenly meeting the girl’s puzzling eyes, Tang Yichen was stunned for a moment, then shook his head instinctively.

“If there’s nothing else, I’ll be going.” Saying this, she was about to get up.

“Shadow Pavilion?”

Gu Zhiqi paused mid-rise, turning her gaze toward Su Yunling.

“Sorry, I accidentally saw what you were searching for,” Su Yunling said lazily, lounging in her seat with her lazy, peach-blossom eyes half-closed, and a polite, faint smile on her lips as she looked at Gu Zhiqi, “But I can take you there.”

Gu Zhiqi wasn’t too concerned about Su Yunling seeing her search, but his words…

“To Shadow Pavilion?”

Shadow Pavilion was a famous restaurant with chains spread across cities nationwide.

The restaurant operated a membership system that barred non-members from entering.

Even after becoming a member, one had to book in advance; ordinary members had to book half a month ahead, and even then, it wasn’t guaranteed they’d get a reservation.

Despite such difficulty in booking, the Shadow Pavilion still had a constant influx of customers, which testified to the deliciousness of the dishes they offered.

When Gu Zhiqi read the novel initially, she thought that if there were a restaurant like the Shadow Pavilion on Aquamarine Star, she’d be willing to shell out a significant amount for a membership card.

Now, having entered the story herself, the chance to enjoy these culinary delights was within reach, and Gu Zhiqi naturally wasn’t going to miss it.
