GBT Chapter 14

On the way to Good Place building, Jiao Bai stared at the car window the entire time, where the assistant posted the mission information.

[Mission Location: Good Place building.]

[Mission Target: Qi Shuang.]

[Mission content is being extracted, please wait patiently.]

“…” Although he didn’t know what the hell this had to do with Qi Shuang, it didn’t affect Jiao Bai’s happy mood. Damn it, the mandatory mission finally came! Let the progress bar fly!

Although Jiao Bai was excited, he didn’t forget to pray in his heart that the mission wouldn’t be too bizarre. He was, after all, a real newbie, and his skills weren’t proficient.

Arriving at Good Place building, Jiao Bai was taken to change into a waiter’s uniform. He could basically guess what Liang Dong’s prank was. This was perfect for him to take advantage of the situation.

Liang Dong circled around Jiao Bai, laughing like a village idiot from the east side of the village: “Okay, okay, okay.”

“Take him to 302,” Liang Dong instructed the foreman.

The foreman was embarrassed: “Young Master Liang, the guest in 302 is someone Good Place building can’t afford to offend. What you’re doing will make us…”

“What’s the big deal? It’s just going in to serve dishes and pour wine,” Liang Dong said nonchalantly.

Seeing that the situation was set, the foreman had no choice but to prepare more to avoid accidents: “Young Master Liang, can you reveal whether he’s your man or…”

Liang Dong mouthed a name and gave a meaningful look.

The foreman immediately understood, thoroughly understood. He secretly sized up the thin youth standing in the corner who hadn’t said a word. It was obvious that he had fallen out of favor and hadn’t been taken care of for a long time. It seemed that the youth was disguising himself as a waiter to sneak in and see his former sugar daddy, trying to regain favor.

However, this youth was able to get Young Master Liang’s help, which meant he had a lot of luck, and his future was hard to say.

Jiao Bai clearly noticed the change in the foreman’s attitude towards him. He suddenly stepped out of the corner and stood under the light.

The foreman was stunned. This appearance was really simple and honest, not like someone who would sell his body to please his master. He suppressed the doubts in his heart and said, “This young gentleman, please come with me.”

Jiao Bai raised his foot but put it back down. He looked towards the other end of the corridor.

The person who came was wearing a dark blue suit, with a tight waist and long legs, and a tough and upright masculine hormone aura.

Jiao Bai quickly put on his mask.

The foreman respectfully greeted the person, “Qi Total.”

Liang Dong put away his frivolous attitude and said seriously, “Big Brother Qi!”

Qi Zi Zhi nodded.

Liang Dong greeted Qi Zi Zhi. His mother’s words echoed in his ears, making him ashamed and speechless.

Although the Qi family couldn’t compare to the Shen family, it was still one of the top families in South City. Now that the youngest of the Qi family was the Shen family’s future daughter-in-law, it meant that the Qi family’s two bachelors were even more sought after.

The second son was abroad dedicating himself to art, and the eldest son was running his company prosperously. Both were outstanding talents.

Not to boost others’ morale and diminish his own, but his sister’s knowledge and appearance couldn’t even make it into the top ten of South City’s talented women list. How could Qi Shuang’s two older brothers possibly look at her?

He really didn’t know where his mother got her confidence. She even wanted to arrange a marriage with the Qi family, and his sister was already making plans, saying that she must win over Qi Zi Zhi. Before long, the Liang family would become the laughingstock of South City.

Jiao Bai didn’t notice Liang Dong grinding his teeth. He was a little nervous at the moment because Qi Zi Zhi had already looked at him for the third time. Could he have recognized him? It shouldn’t be. They had only met twice so far. He wasn’t the protagonist in a Mary Sue novel, and there was no reason for men and women to remember him, love him, and be crazy about him. Even a mask couldn’t stop his earth-shattering beauty.

Qi Zi Zhi didn’t recognize him. His senses were always more sensitive, and he felt that the waiter beside the foreman gave him a slightly familiar feeling, prompting him not to leave immediately. He looked at the other person again.

Jiao Bai’s forehead was slightly damp. This wouldn’t work. He had to break this situation. He pinched Liang Dong’s butt.

Liang Dong’s whole body shook violently, with a dazed expression of “Who am I, what happened, who am I, what happened.”

So Jiao Bai pinched him again.

Liang Dong was struck by lightning, smoke rising from his head, and he was about to burn. He jumped away disgustedly, and said word by word with a livid face: “Jiao, Bai, you, are, looking, for, death!”

Qi Zi Zhi raised his eyebrows. Jiao Bai? The name of a food? He didn’t recognize him. He lifted his foot and left.

Jiao Bai secretly breathed a sigh of relief, but damn it, he left.

Ah, that’s not right. Qi Zi Zhi was going to 302. Crap, he would have to see him later. He couldn’t not go. The mission target was in that room. Who knew when the mission content would be extracted.

“Go ahead,” Liang Dong said, covering the place where his butt had been pinched, sticking to Jiao Bai’s ear with a sinister smile. “When Shen Total gets married, I’ll take you to see the world. Am I loyal enough? Don’t be too touched.”

Jiao Bai: “…” When will Li Jue, the protagonist shou of this comic, appear and take in this idiot? Seriously.

302

Old Lady Shen sat in the seat of honor. From her left side down was Shen Ji and Shen Er An. On the right were Qi Old Madam and Qi Old Master, Qi Zi Zhi, and the soon-to-be bride Qi Shuang.

A super large round table only had seven people, very empty.

Empty enough to make people panic.

Jiao Bai didn’t know about others, but when he came in, he felt a little tightness in his chest and shortness of breath. He stood with a few waiters, inconspicuous.

However, Shen Er An, who had been keeping his head down, suddenly turned his head slightly, then a little more, and raised his face towards one spot.

The grandson’s abnormality attracted the old lady’s attention, and she also looked in that direction.

Shen Ji glanced at the direction his mother was looking at.

On the other side, the Qi family of four turned their heads in unison.

Jiao Bai: “…”

Did all these people twist their necks? He inconspicuously moved his body and hid behind a fat waiter, cursing Shen Er An, who had taken the lead, from head to toe in his heart. If you recognized me, you recognized me. Why are you looking at me? Can’t you look at me later? Are you trying to piss me off?

Shen Er An pursed his lips slightly. He turned his head back, and his gaze returned to under the table. That appearance gave people the illusion of being wronged.

The old lady asked kindly, “An An, what’s wrong? What were you looking at? Tell Grandma.”

Shen Er An shook his head lightly.

The old lady fiddled with the prayer beads, feeling powerless at her grandson’s estrangement and rejection. The Shen and Qi families would soon become one family. The main purpose of tonight was not to discuss matters related to the wedding, but because she had been nagged by Qi Old Madam and agreed to pick up her grandson nearby, so he could meet his future stepmother.

The old lady’s explanation to the Qi family was that the two children were originally classmates, and she didn’t know if the new relationship could be harmonious.

In reality, the old lady didn’t care about that at all. Her real purpose was to find an excuse to bring the father and son to the same table.

She chose Good Place building because it was close to Three Middle School, which wouldn’t take up too much of her grandson’s time and affect his studies.

But the grandson hadn’t said a word since entering the room, and was as quiet as a child who wasn’t in adolescence. He finally had a bit of the fluctuation that a young man should have, but he kept silent. The old lady wanted to try to chat with her grandson, but Shen Ji said indifferently, “Serve the dishes.”

“You eat first, you don’t have to wait for me.” In the end, Shen Ji pulled out his chair, got up, and went out to smoke.

A mature and dim scent of perfume drilled into Jiao Bai’s nose. He physiologically hated it and couldn’t help but hold his breath.

Shen Ji, who was passing by him, turned his head and glanced at him. As if he was giving alms to a little thing that was using clumsy means to attract his attention.

Jiao Bai didn’t panic, and was calm and composed. The old guy liked intense and gorgeous types, which he had nothing to do with. He was very safe.

Shen Ji was about to leave, but he stopped. His voice was low and strong, not allowing for resistance: “Take off your mask.”

Jiao Bai:? I don’t care about you.

The atmosphere in the room was slightly strange.

No one heard Shen Ji speak. They only felt that the scene of him standing next to a waiter was really out of place.

“A Ji, we’re eating,” the old lady said. She had no requirements for her son’s private life. He could relieve his stress however he wanted, as long as he didn’t do it in front of her grandson.

Shen Ji took a step. The lighter clicked between his rough fingers. He had just felt the waiter’s leisure, relaxation, and fearlessness, which was very rare.

The last time someone dared to show such a posture in front of him was that little dog with a pair of tiger teeth.

The dog chain had been taken off, and the image of the dog wagging its tail, acting cute, and flying freely flickered in front of his eyes, which was really in need of training.

The expressions on the faces of the people at the dinner table varied.

Shen Er An pinched his knuckles and was immersed in his own world, as if he didn’t see his father’s words and actions. The old lady touched his head, seemingly praising him for being sensible.

The Qi family elders were used to it, and Qi Zi Zhi didn’t have much reaction.

Only Qi Shuang seriously sized up the waiter who had gotten Shen Ji’s attention. He couldn’t see his face, but there was a lot of meat on his butt. Qi Shuang curled his lips and snorted. He wasn’t as good as Wang Chuqiu. At least Wang Chuqiu was uniformly skinny.

Shen Ji leaving the room was a good thing for Jiao Bai. His target wasn’t the other person, but Qi Shuang. As long as Qi Shuang was there, that was enough.

Jiao Bai wasn’t worried that other waiters would sabotage him at this juncture. The foreman must have said something. They knew that nothing was more important than their jobs.

When serving dishes, Jiao Bai basically didn’t make any mistakes. Just as he was leaving with everyone else, Qi Shuang’s unique voice, like he was holding a piece of candy, came from the table.

“Wait a minute.”

All the waiters stopped, not knowing why.

Jiao Bai’s hand on the dining cart moved. He turned his head with the others, his eyes looking at the light and shadows on the ground, and frantically asked in his heart: “The target is right in front of me. Has the mission content been extracted yet?”

[Please wait patiently.]

Jiao Bai secretly rolled his eyes. Can it be done? Can it be done?!

Qi Shuang stopped the waiters not for anything else, but to have a bowl of rice brought over. Then he showed the old lady a sweet and obedient smile: “Mom, do you like the soft and delicate taste?”

That “Mom” made the old lady’s old face twitch. She pinched the prayer beads, and her wrinkled eyelids lifted: “Okay, that was good heart.”

Jiao Bai didn’t doubt at all that Qi Shuang was likely told that he couldn’t change his address even after marriage, so he deliberately called her that on this occasion, in front of outsiders.

And the old lady was stimulated and wanted to smash the prayer beads on his face. She looked down on this daughter-in-law’s family background and appearance, but she was concerned about his luck and destiny. In the original book, she was pissed to death by this daughter-in-law. She deserved it.

Jiao Bai found the Qi family elders quite interesting. They weren’t embarrassed by their youngest son’s behavior at all. They didn’t seem to notice the change in the atmosphere or see the old lady’s disgust. Tsk, tsk, they were worthy of being the previous generation of a wealthy family.

Qi Zi Zhi, who was diagonally across from him, paused. The corner of his eye swept towards one of the waiters, thoughtful. That kind of cleverness, with a bit of a God’s perspective and malicious eyes, he had seen a few months ago.

It was at Old Lady Shen’s birthday banquet.

The reason why he still had an impression was because he hadn’t met him before.

Qi Zi Zhi put down his chopsticks, his distinctly thick hands resting on his abdomen. The waiters’ clothes were all uniform. With a mask and hat on, only a pair of eyes were revealed, and he could only tell them apart by their figure and gender.

However, Qi Zi Zhi smelled a scent.

The scent of medicine.

It emanated from inside the work clothes, as if it was often applied to the skin, and over time, it mixed with the body odor.

Qi Zi Zhi had also smelled this scent in the corridor, and he determined that the waiter was the one who had made him feel familiar at the time. At this moment, the sense of familiarity surged up again, and it was a little stronger.

Qi Zi Zhi’s exploration was interrupted by a crisp sound.

Shen Er An dropped a soup spoon.
