Chapter 840 Uncle Asks for Help
"Master, I took the initiative to come to you today. I really have something to tell you!"
Although King Gu has a respected position and is quite old, when he spoke to Su Ming, his tone was full of respect. King Gu continued to say: "Something happened in Miao territory, I have to go back and deal with it. , I may not be able to stay in Ningcheng for a while, so please protect your own safety, Master."
It turns out that the Gu King is planning to return to Miao territory to deal with some matters, so he came here to inform Su Ming today. Speaking of it, what the Gu King is most worried about is Su Ming's life. If something happens to Su Ming or his life is in danger. , maybe he will die.
While talking to Su Ming, King Gu lifted off the black cloak on his head. Su Ming could notice that King Gu's face seemed a little haggard, giving people a feeling of being exhausted.
Su Ming had seen such an expression before, that is, when his grandson Wu Chou was seriously injured and dying by Su Ming, he didn't know what happened to King Gu this time.
So Su Ming asked: "What happened in Miao territory?"
"Some family matters, I have to go back as soon as possible." King Gu obviously looked unhappy when he spoke, but he did not tell Su Ming in detail.
As soon as Su Ming heard that it was Gu King's family matter, he stopped asking further. After all, that was not good, so Su Ming said: "Don't worry about me. Go back quickly and remember to pay attention to safety."
Su Ming gave King Gu a few words. Since King Gu signed the master-servant blood contract with Su Ming, he has helped Su Ming several times, and even saved Su Ming's life in critical moments, so Su Ming King Gu was quite grateful in his heart.
If possible, Su Ming doesn't want to use this master-servant blood contract to restrict King Gu anymore, but this thing was created by King Gu, and once it is done, it can never be lifted, so Su Ming has nothing to do.
But now Su Ming's strength has far surpassed that of Gu King. If he really encounters any danger, Gu King won't be able to help Su Ming much.
"Yes, Master, we will meet again later!"
King Gu bowed to Su Ming again, and then he disappeared into the darkness, disappearing without a trace in an instant like a ghost.
Su Ming knew that this was the Gu King's style, so he was not surprised at all. What made Su Ming sigh slightly was that it was because of Zeng Tianqi that he got involved with this Gu King.
As a result, Su Ming learned the news that they were both leaving Ningcheng overnight today, and Su Ming was still a little sad when talking about it.
But the day had to go on, and Su Ming didn't think too much about it. There was no such thing as a banquet in the world, and there would always be a day of reunion anyway.
——————————
A few days passed peacefully. On this day, Su Ming received a call from his uncle Su Qihai. After the call was connected, Su Qihai said: "Su Ming, this is my uncle."
Speaking of which, Su Ming really didn't save this guy's number. After he heard who it was, Su Ming was a little surprised, but he still said: "It turns out to be the uncle. I wonder why the uncle called me?"
"Su Ming, uncle called you today. He really has something to do. I want to treat you to dinner tonight. I wonder if you are free after school?" The uncle's voice came over, but this time he was talking to Su Ming. Su Qihai His attitude has improved a lot, you can tell it just from his voice.
When Su Ming heard that Su Qihai wanted to invite his family to dinner again, his head suddenly hurt. He thought that his uncle's old habit had returned. As we all know, Su Qihai liked to invite his family to dinner and then show off. Su Ming hated this very much. The matter was just forced by his father, and Su Ming had to go through it every time.
Then Su Ming said angrily: "I don't know if I'm free after school. Let's talk about it later. By the way, why don't you call my dad? You can just tell him about this kind of thing."
What made Su Ming feel a little strange was that usually when encountering such a thing, Su Qihai would directly notify his father.
Why did you call yourself directly this time?
Unexpectedly, Su Qihai on the other end of the phone said, "Su Ming, you misunderstood this time. I'm just treating you to dinner alone. I hope you can take some time to come. Uncle really wants to treat you to dinner."
"Just me?"
After hearing this, Su Ming was stunned for a moment, which really surprised Su Ming. In this way, the uncle's deliberate pretense this time was different from the previous one.
So Su Ming asked with some uncertainty: "Is it just the two of us?"
"That's right, it's just the two of us. If you're not free today, you can do it tomorrow." Su Qihai continued, his voice sounding very eager.
Su Ming didn't know what his uncle wanted to do, but since he wasn't pretending on purpose, and he had a good attitude when he called him in person, it wouldn't make sense if Su Ming didn't agree, so he said softly: "That's okay, you can go back and take the food with you." The place told me that if I go there after school, it’s best not to eat too early.”
The reason why he said this was that Su Ming wanted to go to Qin Shiyin's place to prepare dinner for her after school, and then go to eat. The uncle naturally agreed immediately and was quite excited when he hung up the phone.
At around seven o'clock in the evening, Su Ming and his uncle were sitting together. It was really just the two of them, and it was a coincidence that the place the uncle had chosen was Su Ming's restaurant "Farmhouse."
This makes it even more intriguing. Not only did the uncle take the initiative to invite Su Ming to dinner, but he also did so in such a high-end place. The meal would definitely not be that simple.
"Su Ming is here."
After the uncle saw Su Ming, his attitude was particularly affectionate and he spoke directly. He quickly handed over the menu on the table and said, "Hurry up and order whatever you want to eat."
Su Ming was like a mirror in his heart, there must be a monster when things go wrong. It was unusual for his uncle to be so polite, but Su Ming didn't say anything, took the menu and ordered a few things he wanted to eat.
After the waiter took away the menu, the two of them sat like this, feeling a little embarrassed for a while. Although they were relatives, the two of them had relatively little communication.
This kind of awkward atmosphere made Su Ming a little uncomfortable, so Su Ming stopped arguing with his uncle and said directly: "Uncle, please stop being reserved and tell me, why are you inviting me to such a nice place for dinner today?" What's up?"
"If you don't tell me, I won't be able to eat safely." Su Ming said deliberately.
Sure enough, Su Ming guessed the uncle's thoughts, and then he stopped hiding it and said directly: "Su Ming, to be honest, I really have something to ask you."
