Chapter 287
When Gu Xiyan rushed to pick up Gu Mengmeng again, the teacher told her that she had been picked up by her grandparents, and she was overjoyed that her parents were finally back!
As soon as I entered the small courtyard, I heard Gu Mengmeng's "giggle" laughter, and as soon as I entered the house, I saw my father chasing after Gu Mengmeng......
"Dad, you can rest for a while," Gu Xiyan grabbed Gu's father, who was a little out of breath, "How can you run away with her like this?"
"I haven't seen it for a while, and my head is full of this little thing. Gu's mother came out of the kitchen, wearing an apron.
"Did you bring back something delicious?" Gu Xiyan said as she looked into the kitchen, she hadn't tasted anything from her hometown for several years.
"I know you're hungry, clean up the table, and start eating right away. ”
Gu Xiyan buried her head in the meal, she hadn't eaten so comfortably for a long time, so comfortable that she temporarily forgot the trouble of not being evaluated for her title, although since Director Liu told her about the anonymous letter, she no longer had hope of promotion, but the announcement of this result made her still a little uncomfortable.
She also knew that it wasn't entirely because of an anonymous letter that she wasn't rated, it was a place to speak on strength, and she really had to put some effort into doing her homework.
During this time, she has once again deeply experienced the complexity of the details of life, and her parents are really a relief when they come back, at least when she is preparing for class and writing papers, she doesn't have to worry about Gu Mengmeng.
Father Gu put down the dishes and chopsticks, and since the operation, his appetite didn't seem to have been better. took out one from his pocket and put it in front of Gu Xiyan.
Gu Xiyan, who was indulging in the meal, looked at the passbook and raised her head suspiciously, "What is this?"
When I opened it, there was a full 300,000 on it, and my eyes widened suddenly.
"Go back this time, we have disposed of your grandfather's old house, which should be enough for you to make a down payment. Father Gu said extremely calmly, Gu Xiyan can't live in this courtyard all the time, this is the Ouyang family's house, it is inconvenient to fall second, and it is not justifiable.
"Why don't you discuss it with me?" Gu Xiyan was inexplicably moved in her heart, her parents always supported her decision unconditionally, she didn't discuss with them when she went abroad before, but now when it comes to the house, they spare no effort.
"That house is too old, in fact, it is not worth a few dollars, the house price here is getting higher and higher year by year, and if you don't buy it, I am afraid that you will really not be able to afford it in the future." Gu's father stuffed the passbook into Gu Xiyan's hand, "Put it away, you have money in your hand, and you have confidence in your heart." ”
Gu Mengmeng on the side couldn't wait, and kept shouting: "Grandpa took me out to play, I want to go out to play......"
Gu's father agreed with a smile, this little guy was more lively and active than Gu Xiyan when he was a child, and he didn't want to stay in the house for a moment.
Gu Xiyan watched the old man walk out of the door holding hands, his eyes were hot, and he almost cried.
"Look at you stupid boy," Gu's mother said with a smile while putting away the dishes and chopsticks, "We are just such a girl as you, who will we use if we don't give it to you?"
Gu Xiyan hugged Gu's mother's waist and leaned her head on her chest, unprecedented steadfastness and warmth.
"Your dad said, if you have time, you will look at the house, and if you find the right one, we will quickly decorate, live in a new house and be festive, and live in your own house. Gu's mother touched Gu Xiyan's hair, in the past few years in Australia, Gu Xiyan must have had an unstable life, but she has never said bitterness, this is back, with her father and mother, she can't be so aggrieved anymore.
Ling Zhanchi saw Gu's father holding Gu Mengmeng's hand from a distance, and a row of fitness equipment on the campus stopped, and Gu Mengmeng jumped and jumped like joy. Every time he saw this little man, he couldn't help but want to get closer, wanting to kiss a few bites on that pink little face.
Taking advantage of the fact that it was almost dusk, seeing Gu's father sitting on the stone bench with his back to him, he had the courage to get closer again.
"Grandpa, don't you go back to your hometown in the future, okay? I don't want to think about you all day like this time, I don't want to do anything," Gu Mengmeng discussed with Gu's father while playing, you must know that this time is either kindergarten or home, she wants to play on the road for a while, Gu Xiyan will pull her away, as if there is something to do, but it really suffocates her, "Or, if you go back next time, take me with you." ”
"Wow...... Gu's father laughed heartily, this kid has a sweet mouth and is likable.
Gu Mengmeng's tender voice and mischievous tone seemed to have been teased with feathers, Ling Zhanchi felt physically and mentally happy, it had been more than a month since he last saw Gu Mengmeng, and they all said that children grow up in the wind, and Gu Mengmeng seems to be taller.
Father Gu turned around, looked at Ling Zhanchi who was obsessed next to him, stood up, and said in a calm and powerful voice, "Please don't disturb them again in the future!"
Ling Zhanchi was taken aback, his eyes moved away from Gu Mengmeng's body, and he looked at the extremely serious Gu Dad, "You ......"
"I haven't met you in person, but I know it's you. Father Gu looked at Ling Zhanchi, the person in front of him looked more majestic than in the newspaper, and even looked at Gu Mengmeng's eyes full of love, if it wasn't for the fact that it had happened, he didn't want to believe that Ling Zhanchi was a person who had abandoned from the beginning, "We are now in this family, and we are living very well." ”
"Uncle......" Ling Zhanchi shouted cautiously, to be honest, Gu's father's attitude was already "friendly".
"Don't be so affectionate, I can't afford it!" Father Gu unceremoniously interrupted Ling Zhanchi, "Now that the child is still young, we don't want her to know this, so please respect yourself, since you can't let their mother and daughter have a peaceful birthday, you'd better not appear in front of them again!"
"Your body has just recovered, don't be too excited," Ling Zhanchi didn't even dare to raise his voice, for fear of stimulating Father Gu, "I know I'm not qualified to appear in front of them, but please believe me, I'm willing to be responsible, and I won't leave them alone." ”
"Are you responsible?" Father Gu looked at Ling Zhanchi's sincere face, and the prayers and longings in his eyes seemed to be extremely inconsistent with his status, "I really can't think of how you can be responsible? You are a family person, how can you still be unclear with Xi Xi? Yes, now many men don't know what single-mindedness is, you are rich and powerful, so naturally you don't care about gossip, but there are many people in this school, and Xi Xi is already very difficult, so please don't make trouble for her anymore, okay?"
Ling Zhanchi was speechless, he didn't dare to argue that he was a dedicated person, he couldn't even promise her a tomorrow, a month, Liu Su promised him no more to write to school, and he wouldn't talk nonsense in the media, naturally he also had to play the role of a father.
"I don't think you're an unreasonable person," Father Gu sighed, "Whether it's an accident or an old relationship, it's all in the past." We feel sorry for you hurting her, so please stay away from them for the sake of our age......"
He is fully able to experience the mind of a father, just like he looks at Meng Meng now, everything comes from love!
Ling Zhanchi nodded, took out his business card from his pocket, wrote his personal number on it, and handed it to Gu's father, "I don't have any luxury, if there is anything, please remember to tell me." ”
Dad Gu looked at the business card, hesitated for a moment, but still took it, "Let's all live our own lives." ”
Ling Zhanchi had been dealing with it all night in the office, and as soon as he was shaving in the lounge, he heard Jiang Xinran's voice coming from outside.
"Xiaohu, have you inquired about the things you asked?"
"How can I be lazy about what you said, this is the quotation, it is already the internal price, the lowest, you can compare the whole city, there is no lower price than this, such a good location, traffic and traffic, schools and schools, medical care, supermarkets and supermarkets...... If I had money, I'd do it!"
Ling Zhanchi put on his tie and opened the door, and the people in the entire office area were stunned, no one expected that Ling Zhanchi was already in the office early in the morning......
"What about lurking?" Jiang Xinran hurriedly stuffed a piece of fritter into his mouth and wiped the oil on his hands, "Your investigation work seems to be getting more and more mysterious!"
Ling Zhanchi hooked his finger at Jiang Xinran, and Jiang Xinran trotted into Ling Zhanchi's office, "What do you command?"
"What are you doing early in the morning?" Ling Zhanchi made himself a cup of coffee, sat in the corner of his desk, and looked at Jiang Xinran, "What lot, what price?"
"Oh, I'll ask Xiaohu to help...... Looking for a suitable house. Jiang Xinran took a breath, this ear really heard clearly enough.
"Don't you have a house to live in?" Ling Zhanchi flipped through the various reports on the table.
"Yes...... A friend found it. Jiang Xinran wanted to bite off her tongue a little, she herself was not used to separating Ling Zhanchi and Gu Xiyan, this house was getting more and more expensive, and Gu Xiyan's burden would only get heavier and heavier.
"Friend?" Ling Zhanchi tilted his head to look at Jiang Xinran, and his question was about to come out.
Jiang Xinran was most afraid of Ling Zhanchi's expression, because he couldn't hide it every time, "Yes, you guessed right, Gu Xiyan wants to buy a house." ”
"What kind of house was the little nonsense talking about just now?" Ling Zhanchi raised his eyebrows.
"The northern foot of Tianjiao. Jiang Xinran replied truthfully.
"She likes the house there?" Ling Zhanchi asked next.
"Uncle and aunt have seen it before, and said they like it, Gu Xiyan must want to satisfy the second elder's heart. Jiang Xinran said happily, and suddenly his eyes lit up, "You have a door?"
Ling Zhanchi let out an "um", then stared at Jiang Xinran, "But you can't tell her that I made the house." ”
"Sending such a big favor without leaving a name, you are really a living Lei Feng!" Jiang Xinran hurt Ling Zhanchi with his mouth like this, but in fact, he still admired Ling Zhanchi's affection and righteousness in his heart.
"I warn you, keep your mouth shut, for if she knew, she wouldn't have lived. Ling Zhanchi said and took out the phone, "Remember this number, make an appointment to see the house, and say I'll let you go." ”
"Okay!" Jiang Xinran quickly copied the number, and refused to leave.
"What else?"
"With your big face now, I'm afraid you won't have to do one set, right?"
