The little mishap on the way out that morning had no effect on Gu Xi.
Nothing else went wrong along the way, and Gu Xi arrived smoothly at the agreed meeting place.
Seeing that it was not time yet, Gu Xi did not feel like wandering around and went straight into the restaurant called Fenggu Hall.
The moment he entered, before Gu Xi could say anything, the waiter coming toward him stepped forward and asked, "Are you Mr. Gu Xi?"
"Yes."
Gu Xi was rather surprised. Was the service here really this impressive now?
They already knew who had arrived.
"This way, Mr. Gu."
The waiter had no intention of explaining anything to Gu Xi. He simply led the way, guiding Gu Xi toward the top floor at the back of the restaurant.
Gu Xi tried to speak several times, only to be interrupted by the waiter with one verbal maneuver after another. The waiter's whole approach was clearly: you will not get any information out of me.
Faced with that, Gu Xi did not know what to say.
Fortunately, Gu Xi was soon brought to the eleventh floor of Fenggu Hall. The waiter pushed open a door and said to him, "Mr. Gu, this is the place."
"This floor?"
"Yes, the entire floor."
After saying that, the waiter withdrew.
As Gu Xi entered the eleventh floor, he saw a man sitting there reading a book, with a jelly-like drink placed at his side.
When the man saw Gu Xi enter, he was briefly stunned. Then he stood and smiled.
"You must be Teacher Gong's newly accepted student. Hello, my name is Su Zhou. I am also Teacher Gong's student. I have studied under Teacher Gong for five years, and I will be able to graduate in another three."
