The change in Gu Qingying's tone made Chen Dong ecstatic.

Maybe...the relationship between the two will take a turn for the better tonight!

Chen Dong agreed without hesitation.

Suffered all afternoon.

Chen Dong left work early and rushed to Yunding Sky.

This is the place Gu Qingying agreed with him on the phone.

Soon, Gu Qingying's figure appeared at the door of Yunding Sky.

Chen Dong's eyes lit up, he stood up and waved: "Xiao Ying."

Gu Qingying smiled and walked quickly towards Chen Dong: "Didn't you agree to seven o'clock in the evening?"

"I want to come over and wait for you."

Chen Dong smiled and said, "You came early too."

"I also want to come over and wait for you first." Gu Qingying's face was full of smiles, no longer as cold as the previous meetings.

This made Chen Dong feel at ease.

After ordering the dishes, the two started chatting.

The harmonious atmosphere made Chen Dong feel like he had gone back to the time when Gu Qingying had just returned to China, and he automatically ignored the previous meetings.

After the dishes were served, the two of them chatted while eating.

Chen Dong was very happy because Gu Qingying was also very happy.

However, Gu Qingying's words instantly calmed Chen Dong down.

"Chen Dong, I'm going abroad in the next few days." Gu Qingying said, "Go and visit my parents."

Chen Dong's heart skipped a beat, and he pretended to be calm and said, "Why are you suddenly going abroad?"

Gu Qingying was a little helpless, shrugged and smiled bitterly: "Aren't you too high-profile?"

Chen Dong was stunned for a moment.

Then he reacted: "Is it Longting Garden's confession?"

"Um."

Gu Qingying rubbed her hair irritably: "It's not all because of you, it's also the reason why I fired Zhang Heming. Zhang Heming was the one my dad arranged to work at Yingli Building Materials, but as soon as I arrived in Yingli, he quit Zhang Heming's job.

My dad asked about it, and then he found out about your confession to me."

"This afternoon, a sudden call came from overseas and asked me to go back."

Chen Dong suddenly felt a headache.

He really didn't expect that Longting Garden's confession would attract the attention of Gu Qingying's parents who were far abroad.

After thinking for a while, Chen Dong said: "How about I go with you?"

"What are you thinking about?" Gu Qingying said.

Chen Dong shrugged: "An ugly daughter-in-law has to meet her parents-in-law, right?"

Gu Qingying's eyes flashed and her eyebrows lowered slightly: "Forget it, I'll go over and explain to them first, and let's take the rest step by step."

Chen Dong was stunned and smiled bitterly: "Well, when will you leave?"

"The flight is tomorrow morning." Gu Qingying said.

"Then I'll take you to the airport tomorrow." Chen Dong forced a smile.

Gu Qingying's expression changed and she nodded: "Okay."

Finished one meal.

Gu Qingying drove directly home.

Chen Dong walked on the street, feeling the night wind blowing, but feeling a little bitter in his heart.

He thought Gu Qingying had forgiven him.

But when Gu Qingying just said "take one step at a time and see one step at a time", it was clear that she had not yet seen through what happened at Yunding Sky last time.

However, he didn't get to the bottom of it.

In the adult world, sometimes we are too inquisitive, and we end up not even having friends.

He raised his hand and hailed a taxi.

After getting on the bus, Chen Dong leaned on the seat and looked at the night scene outside the window in a daze.

Gu Qingying came back when he was in the most difficult time.

In his heart, Gu Qingying was already on par with his mother.

Now that Gu Qingying has left, it seems that a part of his heart has been suddenly taken away, leaving his heart empty.

Return to Tianmen Mountain Villa Area.

In the living room, the lights are brightly lit.

Li Lan, Long Lao, Kunlun and Fan Lu are all here.

Watching TV and chatting.

Chen Dong smiled, his expression no longer as depressed as before.

The scene before my eyes felt like home.

"Mom, Mr. Long, what are you talking about?"

Chen Dong smiled and walked over.

"Dong'er, you came back so late again, have you eaten?" Li Lan complained, but her eyes were filled with distress.

Chen Dong also saw that his mother's eyes were a little red, apparently because she had just cried.

"Have eaten. We ate outside with Xiaoying." Chen Dong didn't ask any more questions.

It was the first time the two of them had met since Mr. Long arrived.

It is reasonable to make my mother's eyes red when she talks about things from that year.

"Where's Xiaoying?"

Li Lan looked behind Chen Dong and pretended to be disappointed: "Why don't you take such a good girl home at night?"

Chen Dong was stunned for a moment, then realized what he was doing and rolled his eyes: "Mom, why didn't I realize you were so crooked before?"

One sentence made the four of them laugh.

Chen Dong also laughed.

We sat together and chatted for a while.

Chen Dong took the lead in returning to the room.

Lying on the bed, he was not sleepy, looking at the ceiling, thinking about what Mr. Long said at noon.

Before, he thought the Chen family was too simple after all.

Although the father he had never met before was the head of the Chen family, he still did not have the power to dominate the Chen family.

And his birth will definitely become the crux of the old lady's attempt to stop her father.

However, he didn't care too much about this.

As long as Dingtai pre-sales all the properties in the urban housing reform project in the west of the city, he is fully confident that he can take advantage of this east wind and skyrocket.

Even without the secret help of the Chen family, he has nothing to fear.

The gap between bastards and elites is really not insurmountable!

What Chen Dong cares about is what happened that year!

According to Mr. Long, his father had already become the number one member of the Chen family at the age of 20. It would not be an exaggeration to say that he was the proud son of heaven.

Why did you get together with your mother?

Why did the legacy left behind disappear after leaving?

He didn't believe that his mother would rather work several jobs every day, survive the illness, and abandon the inheritance left by his father.

But Elder Long's words were directed at his mother.

He could not solve such doubts for the time being, so he could only wait for a suitable opportunity to ask his mother.

The answer lies in mother's heart.

In a daze, Chen Dong thought of Gu Qingying again, and felt melancholy again.

The days that were originally peaceful became ups and downs again because of the return of Mr. Long and the departure of Gu Qingying.

Just at this moment, the phone rang.
