Chapter 105: Back to the Gu Family
The last snow of winter had already melted, as the saying goes, snow does not turn cold into snow, Gu Qi'an wore a yellow long down jacket after breakfast, and asked Zhou Jian to give her a place to make an appointment with Mo Jinyan.
"Sister An An, here." As soon as he walked into a somewhat chic beverage shop, Gu Qi'an heard Mo Jinyan's shout, and saw her arms waving in the air.
Gu Qi'an smiled slightly, and walked towards Mo Jinyan with the things in his hand, "Jinyan, I haven't seen you for so long, why are you still so babbling?" Hasn't General Manager Yan sharpened your temperament yet? ”
As soon as he sat down, Gu Qi'an couldn't help but ridicule Mo Jinyan. From that time in the hospital, she looked at the mistake between Iwacheng and Jin Yan, and Jin Yan's words petrified her and Zhuang Tianling. Probably Zhuang Tianling didn't expect that someone as arrogant as Iwacheng would like the cute and confused Mo Jinyan, but Jinyan seemed to be a little dull! Do you want her to do Iwajo a favor?
Gu Qi'an was thinking about it, and he saw Mo Jinyan's dissatisfied expression.
"Sister An An," Mo Jinyan was unhappy, his mouth pursed slightly, and he looked at Gu Qi'an dissatisfied, "When did you learn to tease me?" ”
However, a pair of bright eyes still caught a glimpse of the diamond ring on Gu Qi'an's right ring finger and bit his lip.
"Okay, I won't tease you, na! This is a gift for you. Gu Qi'an pursed his lips and smiled, took out the contents of the bag and pushed them to Mo Jinyan's hand, "See if you like it or not?" ”
Mo Jinyan opened a box the size of a vanity box, with many shells and conch lying inside, and a pair of big round eyes sparkled like gold at the moment.
"Wow! It's so beautiful," Mo Jinyan picked up a palm-sized conch and played with it in his hand, "Thank you, Sister An, you are the best to me." ”
Such shells and conches are also sold in W City, she just said it casually that day, but she didn't expect Sister An An to agree, although these things must not be valuable, but that heart, she was very moved. And she couldn't do anything, she could only watch her relatives go astray step by step.
"If you like it." As soon as the voice fell, the mobile phone in the bag rang, "Jin Yan, I'll answer the phone first." ”
Gu Qi'an saw the call above and put away his smile, "Hey, Dad, is there something wrong with me?" ”
Gu Qi'an hummed twice, and waited until the other party hung up the phone before closing the phone.
"Sister An'......" Seeing her hang up the phone, Mo Jinyan looked like she wanted to say something, and was thinking about whether to ask her for help.
"Jin Yan, my dad asked me to go home, let's talk about it here today, and I'll ask you out another day." Gu Pengcheng didn't say anything on the phone, but he made her feel a little uneasy.
"It's okay, I'm going to work too, let's go out together!" A hint of loss flashed in Mo Jinyan's eyes, and he finally didn't say anything.
The two walked out of the beverage store holding hands, Mo Jinyan went to work in Yi'an, just Zhou Jian sent her here and went to Yi'an, Zhuang Tianling didn't ask her to go to work these days, just let her stay in the villa and don't go anywhere, even if she goes anywhere, Zhou Jian has to follow.
After hesitating for a moment, he still took a taxi to Gu's house. I saw that Gu Qi'an had just gotten into the car, and a taxi followed not far behind him.
When Gu Qi'an arrived at Gu's house, he was called to the study by Gu Pengcheng, and he didn't meet Zhao Wanrong.
"Qi'an, sit here." There was a black leather sofa in the study, Gu Pengcheng did not sit at the desk today, but sat on the sofa, patted himself beside him, and motioned for Gu Qi'an to sit beside him.
"Dad, are you in such a hurry to come to me, what's the matter?" Gu Qi'an sat beside him and asked carelessly.
Although she admired and respected him very much, after all, there was little talk between father and daughter, and she rarely stayed in the Gu family, so it was difficult to bring out the topic between the two, so she asked him directly why she came to her.
Gu Pengcheng saw the diamond ring she put on her lap and nodded slightly with satisfaction, it seems that Zhuang Tianling is indeed someone she is worthy of entrusting for life.
"Qi An, do you know Tang Wenhao, the mayor of W City?"
Gu Pengcheng's words made Gu Qi'an stunned, remembering that Zhuang Tianling took her to Tang Wenhao's birthday banquet a few months ago, it can only be regarded as a meeting, and it can be regarded as an acquaintance.
Gu Qi'an nodded and said, "Last time Mayor Tang had a longevity banquet, Tianling took me there, so I can be regarded as having met once!" It's not an acquaintance either. Dad, why did you suddenly ask about this? ”
Gu Pengcheng's expression froze, Jun Xiang was ill that day, and he couldn't spare time to go, so he didn't know about it. The hand on one side trembled slightly, and he got up and picked up a red object from the desk and handed it to her.
Gu Qi'an took it suspiciously, and the two big words "invitation" were written on the shell, and it was also indicated that it was the Tang family below. Flipping through the inside, it said that it was hoped that Gu Qi'an would be able to attend the Tang family's banquet ten days later, and the date marked on it was a week ago, why did her father tell her now?
"The Tang family sent someone to send two invitations a week ago, one for the Gu family, and the other for you, I originally wanted to call you back that day, but later I heard that Tianling took you out for a walk, so I didn't have to rush to tell you."
I see, wouldn't it be nice to use just one invitation to take care of the family, why do you want to send her another one?
"Dad......" Gu Qi'an didn't know what to say.
"It's okay, it's just a family banquet for the Tang family, don't worry, you can take this back."
Gu Pengcheng's amber eyes flashed with a sharp light that did not match his appearance, he looked at his daughter who was still puzzled, covered up the wisdom, and said apologetically: "Qi An, you are engaged, as a father, you didn't hold a decent engagement banquet for you, will you blame your father?" ”
Gu Pengcheng looked at his daughter, his eyes full of guilt and doting.
"No, Dad. I know that this is beneficial and harmless to the Gu family, Zhuang Tianling, or even me, besides, marriage is a matter of two people, and it is only a matter of two families to say that it is bigger, so there is no need to let outsiders know. ”
If he didn't hold an engagement banquet, it must have been at Tianling's suggestion that he didn't do it with much fanfare. She doesn't like to be busy, if she makes it public, I'm afraid that it will really make a lot of trouble in the city, and she can't imagine living as comfortable as she is now. Tianling and her father's good intentions, how could she not know? It's too late to be grateful, how can you blame?
Hearing her answer, Gu Peng felt that her daughter had grown up, and a smile of relief appeared on her face.
"It's good that Qi An doesn't blame Dad, what happened between you and Ye Sheng in the past, Dad was sorry for you, and you shouldn't obstruct it more."
Gu Qi was relieved, took a deep breath and said, "Dad, I know that you were also for my good at the beginning, so I didn't blame you, but my daughter embarrassed her father everywhere, and I hope my father won't be angry with me." ”
There is no parent in the world whose starting point is not for the good of their children, and she has always understood this. In the past, she was just angry, she hadn't taken care of her father for ten years, and after she fell in love, she came out to obstruct her, at that time she thought that her father was for the sake of the Gu family's face and did not approve of her and Ye Sheng coming together.
But in the past few years, seeing the Gu family acting in a low-key manner in W City, Gu Pengcheng has gradually begun to close some companies, and she knows that her father does not agree because of his status and family background, but she doesn't want to ask more about the specific reasons. Because at this moment, it is pointless to ask about the past.
Gu Pengcheng looked at the face in front of him and reflected another face that was particularly similar, but that person was more mature than Qi An, "No, how could Dad blame you, if it wasn't for me, you wouldn't be ......"
"Knock knock!" Three knocks on the door came from outside the door in succession, causing Gu Pengcheng, who was caught in his memory, to wake up suddenly.
Gu Qi'an's eyes flashed slightly, if she was not mistaken, the way her father looked at her just now was a little empty, or as if he was recalling something.
"Come in." Gu Pengcheng smiled gently at Gu Qi'an and said in a deep voice.
"Master, Mr. Zhuang is here." Li Guoqiang pushed open the door and bowed slightly to Gu Pengcheng.
Gu Pengcheng showed a kind smile on his face, "It seems that Tianling really loves you, Qi An, cherish it." Let's go, let's go downstairs, we can't let Tianling wait for a long time. ”
As he spoke, he got up and pulled Gu Qi'an on the side and walked towards the door.
Gu Qi'an followed Gu Pengcheng downstairs, and at a glance saw a man sitting in the living room, dressed in a silver suit. No matter where he goes, his unique temperament cannot be ignored, and Jun Xiang, who is sitting opposite him, is sitting next to Gu Jie.
Seeing Gu Jie, who was wearing a white fluffy coat, sitting next to Zhuang Tianling, she knew what was going on by watching the movements of the two. Gu Jie held Zhuang Tianling's arm with one hand, looking extremely affectionate, and seemed to keep asking him some questions. Zhuang Tianling, on the other hand, was surrounded by a cold breath, and there was no embarrassment or blush on his resolute and handsome face, but he pursed his lips tightly and said nothing.
Hearing the sound of going downstairs, the three people in the living room all looked this way. Seeing Zhuang Tianling's cold face, Gu Qi'an instantly felt a little funny, she hadn't seen him like this for a long time.
Zhuang Tianling's cold eyes instantly brightened when he caught a glimpse of Gu Qi'an, who came downstairs with Gu Pengcheng, and got up and walked towards Gu Qi'an, who directly got rid of the sticky Gu Jie.
Seeing this, Gu Pengcheng let go of Gu Qi'an's hand and let Zhuang Tianling take her into his arms in front of many people.
"Tianling, Dad is here, what are you doing?" Gu Qi'an whispered softly, and his good-looking eyebrows were raised unnaturally.
"An An, what was so funny just now? You'll have to explain it to me when you get back. Zhuang Tianling didn't care about her annoyance, and whispered in her ear.
"I won't tell you!"
"Yo! Sister, brother-in-law, are you two this when we don't exist? In front of the public, I and I will take care of the feelings of my brother-in-law and sister, okay? ”
Gu Jie's beautiful eyes blinked, deliberately not seeing the murderous eyes shot by Zhuang Tianling.
"Uncle Gu, I'm smiling at you, I haven't seen An An for a day today, and I forgot my sense of proportion for a while, and I ask Uncle Gu not to blame Tianling." One sentence is extremely sincere, which not only expresses the importance of Gu Qi'an, but also expresses his respect for Gu Pengcheng.
"Tianling just treats the Gu family as his home, don't be so formal, just casual, why are you still standing? Sit down, it's hard to come here, and then go back after staying for a light meal together. ”
Gu Pengcheng looked at Zhuang Tianling with a smile, and then turned his gaze to Gu Jie on the side, "Jie'er, let Sister Wang cook a few more dishes tonight." ”
Now Gu Pengcheng seems to be in a good mood, and he doesn't blame Gu Jie for being rude just now, and it is rare to say to Gu Jie with a pleasant face.
During this period, Gu Junxiang didn't speak, but his delicate face was dyed with a trace of anger, looking at their intimate appearance, a pair of eyes that didn't have too many emotional ups and downs faintly flashed with jealousy.
