Chapter 675 Shan City Old Hot Pot

Chapter 675 Shan City Old Hot Pot

Things don’t go well in Shan City.

Susu has only shown Gao Ge around Shan City these three days.

For a moment, Gao Ge doubts whether he is in Shan City for a tour.

As to Susu, she will feel guilty when she meets Gao Ge every morning.

Gao Ge can tell from her eyes that she still has no information about Zhang Ning.

Therefore, he doesn’t ask further, or that will make Susu even more perturbed.

He doesn’t want to impose too much pressure on others.

Moreover, Susu has been busy working for him, which he knows well.

However, to his confusion, given the information network of the Shadow School, they still can’t find Zhang Ning’s whereabouts. This man just vanishes into thin air, which is so weird.

By now they still can’t find out what’s going on with him.

“Mr. Gao, how about having hot pot later?” Susu says with a smile.

Susu shows quite some features of the girls in Shan City-vivacious, outgoing, capable and girly.

During his stay in Shan City, Susu spends almost all her time with Gao Ge. Of course, Gao Ge knows that it is Song Yuan’s arrangement rather than Susu’s kindness and he will surely keep this in mind.

If it were not for Song Yuan, Susu wouldn’t help him like this.

However, after spending a few days together, Gao Ge and Susu have become familiar with each other. For example, when Gao Ge knows that Susu is not only a local of Shan City but also a computer science graduate of Imperial Capital University, he asks her why a computer science graduate of Imperial Capital University would join the Shadow School and help collect information for the School.

“Because computer science is about information technology!” Susu replies with a grin.

Gao Ge is quite speechless and can’t refute at all!

Afterward, Gao Ge learns that Susu joined the Shadow School for a simple reason.

Susu comes from the countryside. Her school tuition fees were paid by the Shadow School since she went to junior middle school. This is a way of talent cultivation of the Shadow School. Besides, in summer vacations and winter vacations, Susu went to the Shadow School to learn various skills, including some assassinating skills. Actually, she has killed quite some people.

It is hard to imagine that Susu who always puts on a lady-like look before Gao Ge should have a brutal side.

Therefore, it also indicates that how others look at you depends on who you are, which Gao Ge learned somewhere.

While having hot pot at noon, Gao Ge orders nothing and lets Susu make the decision. Since she is a local girl in Shan City, it will be too insensible if he still orders the ingredients for the hot pot by himself.

Actually, Gao Ge likes eating hot pot. He goes to Haidilao Hot Pot mostly. After all, the service in that restaurant is very good and the price is not much higher than ordinary hot pot restaurants. For two people, a meal will cost three or four hundred yuan at most.

This time, Susu brings Gao Ge to Shan City Old Hot Pot. There is a sea of people outside the restaurant, queuing in line. However, when Gao Ge and Susu arrive, they just directly go into the restaurant instead of lining up. Gao Ge thought Susu had booked a seat for them. Afterward, he realizes that reservation is not accepted in this restaurant. The reason why they can have a seat directly is rather simple. Shan City Old Hot Pot is also owned by the Shadow School. It is difficult to imagine that such a mysterious school as the Shadow School should have a hot pot restaurant in the downtown area.

Fine.

They’ve actually put the famous saying into practice-”The real hermit lives downtown”.

“Mr. Gao, this hot pot restaurant is a century-old restaurant in Shan City,” Susu says with a smile. “Second Young Master also liked to have hot pot here when he was in Shan City.”

“Okay,” Gao Ge nods and asks, “Are you familiar with Song Yuan?”

“Just fine,” Susu says with a bitter smile. “Second Young Master is fucking busy. He can’t come to Shan City very often, can he?”

“Who is ‘busy’?”

Susu replies with embarrassment, “You are so humorous. Well, here comes the soup base of the hot pot! Their soup base is very authentic. It is said that the soup base is made after 18 procedures.”

Gao Ge boils a piece of beef tripe into the pot, puts it into his mouth and then slightly nods his head.

It is delicious indeed.

“The beef tripe here is airlifted here but it is not very expensive,” Susu says. “Therefore, lots of people like to have hot pot here.”

Gao Ge says with a smile, “Good for you. You like having hot pot but your skin still looks so good.”

Susu grins and says, “Mr. Gao, you’ve flattered me. I’m a born beauty.”

“Look. You like kidding too!” Gao Ge pours a glass of water for himself.

Susu is lost for words.

Somehow, she suddenly wants to beat this guy up…

While they are having the hot pot, Susu’s phone suddenly rings.

She picks up the phone and takes a look at it. With a slight frown, she stands up. “Mr. Gao, I’m sorry. I need to take this.”

“Sure!” Gao Ge is still chewing a slice of tender beef. He just nods his head. Although Susu looked stern when she picked up the phone, this is her own business. If Susu is willing to tell him or needs his help, of course he won’t reject. However, if she doesn’t mean to tell him, he won’t ask her proactively.

Her call lasts about five minutes.

When Susu comes back, her chest is still heaving.

Although she tries to control her mood, Gao Ge still notices the annoyance in Susu’s eyes.

“Mr. Gao, I will have someone else be your assistant tomorrow. I have other things to do tomorrow.”

Gao Ge laughs and says, “Just mind your own business. No need to send anyone else to me. If you finish your own business, you can tell me.”

“Okay,” Susu says that and then starts to eat too. Yet, she eats quite slowly and also falls into a trance once in a while.

“The tripe is getting overcooked,” Gao Ge coughs and says.

Susu suddenly comes to her senses and feels somewhat embarrassed.

Gao Ge is a bit surprised.

Having spent several days with Susu, he thinks Susu is a very prudent person and rarely sees her put on such a look.

After having the hot pot, Gao Ge thinks it over and still says what he wants to say.

“If you need my help, you can let me know. After all, you’ve been a tour guide for me these days,” Gao Ge says banteringly.

“Sure,” Susu smiles politely.

Gao Ge notices that she still doesn’t intend to ask for help so he doesn’t say anything further.

After all, that’s all he can say. Since Susu doesn’t want to tell him, he can’t do anything about it.

Having walked out of the hot pot restaurant and returned to the hotel, Gao Ge continues to read the materials about Zhang Ning, Li Lang and some other disciples of the Ghost Sect, hoping to find something in common. Unfortunately, the result is less than satisfactory.
