Chapter 348: A Thousand Miles of Complaints
Walking quickly downstairs, he saw that Zhou Muan was still with Huang Wanying with a smile on his face.
At this time, Zhou Mu'an's ears were almost calloused, because he was accompanying Huang Wanying to pull around, and even his voice was a little hoarse.
The sound of footsteps on the other side of the stairs made her happy, and someone could finally save her from fire and water!
"Auntie, what you just said is that I will think about it when I go home, after all, I don't have much experience in this area before, so I'd better think about it before giving you an answer."
Zhou Mu'an smiled, and his tactful and leisurely words did not offend people at all.
As for Huang Wanying, she just felt that Zhou Muan was a little shy as a girl, and she was willing to give her a few days to think about it.
At this time, Gu Yanze walked over with a cold face, stood next to the sofa and stretched out his hand directly towards Zhou Muan.
"Mu An, it's not too early, I'll send you back."
Huang Wanying knew that Gu Yanze would not give him a good face, so she just kept keeping Zhou Muan.
"Oh, it's not even nine o'clock, you can talk to your aunt for a while, if it's late, stay here for one night, you must not see outside."
Gu Yanze really didn't pay attention to Huang Wanying, just stared at the girl sitting opposite her coldly.
"Mu An, let's go!"
One kept holding on and the other couldn't wait to leave, Zhou Muan was caught in the middle, not to mention how uncomfortable it was.
A smile of embarrassment and helplessness crossed her face, and she finally chose to stand up.
"Auntie, I have made an appointment with a patient tomorrow morning, so I'll go back first, and come back to visit you and my uncle when I have time." Zhou Mu'an and Yan Yuese's explanation.
Originally, Huang Wanying was also out of politeness, and when she said this, she no longer kept her.
Sending the two out of the door, Huang Wanying thought that the marriage between the two families had come to fruition, so she ran upstairs excitedly.
But when he pushed open the door of the study, he saw Gu Tingsheng's face was ugly.
"Old Gu, what's wrong with you? Did Aze contradict you again? Huang Wanying asked inexplicably.
Gu Tingsheng sighed heavily, with an expression of hatred on his face.
"This kid is like falling into an evil spirit, and he actually told me that he would not marry Zhou Muan in his next life!"
Hearing her husband's indignant voice, Huang Wanying could only please Gu Tingsheng first in order to keep her position in the Gu family.
"Forget it, don't be angry, young people are just more rebellious, and everyone came from this time."
Huang Wanying persuaded Gu Tingsheng with a smile, and a touch of cunning suddenly flashed under her eyes.
"Since Aze still can't persuade him, then we have to think of some other methods, such as cooking raw rice or something."
She said confidently, and began to quietly brew a new plan in her heart.
Gu Yanze drove Zhou Muan home that night, and he was not in a good mood, so he didn't say much along the way.
Zhou Mu'an has a straightforward temperament, and after complaining about Huang Wanying, he suddenly remembered the conversation with Zhong Zong in the ward last night.
"By the way, there's something I think is very strange, so I wanted to discuss it with you."
"What do you want to discuss?"
Gu Yanze's cold eyes stared at the road ahead, as if no one could make his mood better except for love now.
Zhou Mu'an couldn't hide things in his heart, and told Gu Yanze what happened without reservation.
Hearing that Zhong Zong was secretive about his childhood past, Gu Yanze also felt that things were very strange.
"It seems that I have the opportunity to check the Zhong family's family background......" Gu Yanze muttered to himself while thinking.
Zhou Mu'an, who was in the co-pilot, hurriedly answered: "That's right, Zhong Zong is really suspicious, he lost his temper for some reason, and took the initiative to tell me about Xiaoqing's disappearance for fear that I would ask." β
"Well, leave that to me."
Hearing Zhou Mu'an's complaint, Gu Yanze already had other plans in his heart.
Sending the titular fiancΓ©e back first, he quickly drove back to his villa, and then took out his mobile phone and searched for Zhong Shengyun's number in the address book.
They had never been in touch since Zhong Shengyun left the country, so they weren't sure if the phone would get through.
Hesitantly pressed, Gu Yanze looked at the oil painting on the wall with deep eyebrows and waited.
"Hello? Aze? β
After about half a minute on the phone, Zhong Shengyun's surprised voice came from the other side.
Gu Yanze's handsome face had a hint of joy, he clenched his mobile phone and asked calmly: "Uncle, are you okay abroad?" I don't know how I'm in condition these days? β
Zhong Shengyun heard that his prospective son-in-law specially called to greet him, and he couldn't help but feel very relieved, and replied with a smile: "Thank you, the slow pace of life here, the impact of air pollution, my body has obviously improved, and I am ready to return to China in half a month." β
Knowing that Zhong Shengyun's current situation is stable, Gu Yanze is much more relieved, and is ready to use the Zhong family's father and son to track down Zhong's life experience.
But this is just the thought in his heart, and he can't reveal it in front of Zhong Shengyun for the time being.
"Uncle is in good health, usually Xiaoqing is very worried about you, two days ago her brother was hospitalized, Xiaoqing also said that fortunately you are not in the country......"
Before the words fell, Zhong Shengyun heard about his son's hospitalization, and immediately became concerned.
"What do you say? Why was Zhong Zong hospitalized? How is he doing now? Zhong Shengyun's voice was very nervous.
And Gu Yanze pretended to say something leaky, and quickly changed his words: "It's nothing, it's nothing, uncle, don't worry, Zhong Zong has been discharged from the hospital." β
However, to put it lightly, Zhong Shengyun only has this one son, and he still expects Zhong Zong to carry the Zhong family's company, not to mention the task of passing on the lineage.
"Aze, don't hide it from me, what disease is he suffering from? Why did you suddenly get hospitalized......" Zhong Shengyun's tone became more and more anxious.
Gu Yanze was still pretending to be garlic, and replied apologetically: "I'm sorry uncle, in fact, Xiaoqing doesn't want me not to tell you that her brother was in the hospital for three days because of stomach bleeding caused by drinking a few days ago." β
Knowing the truth, Zhong Shengyun couldn't control his worries, and said worriedly: "Hey, it's really embarrassing for him, if it weren't for my poor health, he wouldn't have drunk his stomach at a young age." β
Gu Yanze deliberately acted deeply in front of him, and sighed as he sighed: "Uncle, don't blame yourself too much, fortunately, Zhong Zong has no major incidents, but he didn't listen to the doctor's advice at all, and he secretly ran out to socialize and drink the day before he was discharged from the hospital, which is really worrying." β
As soon as he heard this, Zhong Shengyun couldn't sit still in an instant, and asked at a loss: "What?" He's still drinking? No, I have to hurry back to China, and it seems that only I can get him to quit drinking! β
This was exactly what Gu Yanze wanted to hear, and there was a hint of joy between his eyebrows.
"Uncle, don't be angry, I'll persuade him with Xiaoqing when I go back." Gu Yanze was still pretending.
But Zhong Shengyun had already made up his mind, and said in a low voice: "I'd better come back as soon as possible, then let's not talk about it for now, I'll go and see tomorrow's ticket!" β
After speaking, he hurriedly hung up the phone, and Gu Yanze also began to make arrangements in full swing.
The next day.
As soon as Gu Yanze returned to the office from the morning meeting, he heard that Zhong Shengyun's flight had arrived at the airport.
After arranging for his subordinates to pick up the airport at the airport, Gu Yanze also put down his work and left the company and went straight to a high-end restaurant.
Zhong Shengyun, who hurried back on the other side, saw several men in suits and leather shoes waiting for him at the entrance of the passage as soon as he got off the plane.
"Hello Mr. Zhong, we are Mr. Gu's bodyguards, and Gu always sends us to pick up the wind and wash the dust for you." The other party politely introduced himself to Zhong Shengyun.
"I see! That's a real bother! β
Zhong Shengyun's face was first surprised, and then he hurriedly shook hands with the other party in flattery.
Following the bodyguard out of the airport terminal, Zhong Shengyun took a special car back to the city and was directly taken to the high-end restaurant that Gu Yanze had booked in advance.
The antique decoration has a unique style, he walked into the box on the second floor under the guidance of the waiter, and as soon as he entered the door, he saw Gu Yanze sitting at the dining table.
"Aze, I'm causing you trouble, don't you run by yourself if you're so busy with work!"
Zhong Shengyun saw that his prospective son-in-law cared so much about him, although he was polite, he was already happy in his heart.
Gu Yanze smiled slightly, and his words were polite and respectful: "I'm afraid that my uncle will be in a hurry, so I want to have a meal with you." β
The two sat at the dining table, and as soon as Zhong Shengyun sat down, he couldn't help but express his worries to Gu Yanze.
"To tell you the truth, I didn't sleep all night when you called the night before, my brother was full of petty feelings, to be honest, I was really angry and distressed."
Hearing Zhong Shengyun's confession, Gu Yanze comforted him earnestly: "Uncle, you still put your body first, Zhong Zong is already an adult after all, if he wasn't for the company, he wouldn't have run out to socialize before he was discharged from the hospital." β
Zhong Shengyun felt even more self-reproachful, feeling that he should not hand over the company to his son too early, which would only increase his pressure and burden.
"I understand, but the body is the most important thing, he is only in his twenties now, what will he do when his body collapses?"
Zhong Shengyun said at a loss, and suddenly heard someone knocking on the door outside the box.
Gu Yanze was still pretending not to know, raising his eyebrows lightly and pretending to guess: "It should be the waiter serving the food." β
At this time, the door of the box opened, and the energetic Zhong Zong walked in from outside, dressed in a straight suit, and was bent on business negotiations with Gu Yanze.
Last night, Zhong Zong received a call from Gu Yanze as soon as he went home, and the two chatted for more than an hour.
But Zhong Shengyun in the door didn't expect that Zhong Zong, who had just come in, was also unexpected, and the eyes of the father and son just collided together.
"Dad? You...... Why are you here? When did you return to China? Zhong Zong looked stunned and looked at his father dumbfounded.
He hadn't reacted to the fact that he had been deceived by Gu Yanze, but he was surprised that his father returned to China without a word.
