The guard Lao Zhang suddenly raised his head, with a bit of surprise on his face, "Mr. An, is this not good?"
After all, the things originally given to Miss Gu Yao were also the things originally prepared for the An family's second room.
Gave it to Master Pingle.
If Gu Yao and the An family's second room knew about it.
There will definitely be a fuss.
In the end, it is An Lao who is in trouble!
An Lao rubbed the crutch in his hand. The cold wooden crutch had become a little warm because he had held it for a long time. After hearing the guard's words,
Mr. An turned back and glanced at his bodyguard.
In a calm tone, he said, "Xiao Zhang, your hand is stretched too long."
Originally, his guards would never do such a thing.
These words made the guard Xiao Zhang suddenly look stern, "Mr. An, I was wrong."
It was because An Mingpeng and An Xiaohui cried in front of him that their mother was gone and their father was homeless. After all, it was because they were watching their children grow up that he felt distressed.
It was only after he learned that Mr. An wanted to give the property belonging to Anjia's second wife to Pingle and the others that he lost his sense of proportion.
but--
The reason why people are human is precisely because they have biases and emotions.
After the guard Xiao Zhang finished his apology, he endured it again and again, but he still couldn't hold it back and said, "Mr. An, Mingpeng and Xiaohui have lost their mother, their maternal family, and their father doesn't love them. How pitiful they are."
After a pause, he tentatively said, "If you give all the things in the second bedroom to Master Pingle, Mingpeng and Xiaohui will probably have a difficult life in the future."
Xiaohui is such a well-behaved child.
I would smile at him when I was a child. When I grew up, I would bring him back a bunch of candied haws alone when I went out.
The human heart is made of flesh.
Guard Xiao Zhang, how can I not feel heartbroken!
That's why this plea came about.
His words made Mr. An suddenly turn around. He was wearing a military coat over a Chinese tunic suit, which made the old scholar a little more decisive.
Mr. An's turbid eyes stared at the guard Xiao Zhang with some scrutiny, "They are pitiful? Who caused it?"
"Is it Pingle? Or Ningning?"
"No, it's their own fault."
Mr. An said in a deep voice, "Mingpeng and Xiaohui lost their mother because their mother did something unscrupulous and illegal. Since they are Chen Qiongfang's children and have enjoyed the vested interests, they must pay what they deserve."
cost."
After a pause, he didn't seem to want to mention the Chen family, but he had to mention that guard Xiao Zhang had been with him for more than 20 years.
Mr. An didn't want to lose this capable assistant like this.
"As for the Chen family, Mingpeng and Xiaohui, have they enjoyed the glory and material things brought by the descendants of the Chen family before?"
Before, they were still An family.
They are not only proud of the An family, they are also proud of being the descendants of the Chen family.
The Chen family is a scholarly family, a family that has survived ten years of turmoil.
A family that makes them feel extremely proud.
Guard Xiao Zhang couldn't answer this. He could only say bitterly, "Yes - but," they are all children too!
How can the mistakes made by the elders of the family affect the children?
"No but-"
Mr. An walked step by step in front of the security guard Xiao Zhang, leaning on a cane. The cane hit the ground as if it was hitting the apex of a person's heart.
He shouted by name, "Zhang Hongwei, you have been with me for almost thirty years. You don't know that family honor and personal honor and disgrace are tied together."
"Since Mingpeng and Xiaohui have enjoyed the glory, it is normal for them to be implicated when the family collapses."
After a pause, his tone was a bit cold, "Not to mention, the kind of things their mother did. If you feel pity for Mingpeng and Xiaohui, don't you feel pity for Ning Ning?"
"She was tied to the pier of a bridge. Isn't she afraid? Does she deserve it? Does she owe Chen Qiongfang? Why does she have to suffer this?"
He asked several questions in a row until the security guard Lao Zhang could not utter a single word. His words were astringent and hesitant, "Mr. An——"
"That's the grudge of the previous generation."
"No! You are wrong!" Mr. An seemed not to want to reason with him, "As long as Chen Qiongfang is An Mingpeng and An Xiaohui's mother for a day, then they owe Gu Ning!"
His tone was decisive, "Since they can't afford it, then I'll pay them back with what they deserve. Is there any problem?"
No problem.
Guard Lao Zhang fell silent, and his tone was a little softer, "What about Gu Yao?"
That child is also pitiful.
The icy and snowy weather drove me out.
Don’t the old man know?
Apart from Anjia, the little girl has no place to go.
At that time, Gu Yao was suffering from the praise of An Lao in the An family, and at the same time, she was privately being attacked by the younger generation of the An family.
It's not that An Lao didn't know.
However, he turned a blind eye like a poison.
This is what Lao Zhang can’t figure out the most.
Even he, an outsider, felt a little softer when he saw Gu Yao being bullied by An Jiao and the others. She slept in a warehouse with wet sheets and was bullied.
He didn't understand why Mr. An could be so cruel.
Old An sighed, "Old Zhang, your mind is biased!"
After all, he is his old buddy.
A little more patient than others.
"Do you think Gu Yao really has no place to go?"
"Do you think the An family is really Gu Yao's secret?"
"Isn't it?"
Guard Lao Zhang asked rhetorically.
Mr. An didn't say much, he waved his hand, "Forget it, Mr. Zhang, it's good to be the wooden person you were before.
Just follow orders."
After a pause, he looked at him and said in a serious tone, "Now, I want you to prepare the things and send them to Pingle's house. Can you do it?"
This is an order from superiors to subordinates.
The security guard Lao Zhang, who was still doubtful at first, tried to defend himself.
He immediately stood up straight and saluted, "Copy that!"
Wait for the guard Lao Zhang to leave.
Mr. An shouted to the person behind the bookcase, "Come out!"
From behind the bookcase, a young gay man wearing a navy blue coat, slender, gentle and elegant, with a jade-like face suddenly appeared.
That person is not someone else.
It is Zhao Jianan.
He strolled out from behind the bookcase, strode like lightning, then walked to Mr. An and paused.
He cupped his hands towards An Lao and shouted respectfully, "Teacher——"
Zhao Jian'an is An Lao's student.
Back then, he was able to get into Tsinghua University from Anzhou City, and while on campus, he made an exception and went to the institute to do projects.
It was entirely up to Mr. An to strategize and build relationships.
Get Zhao Jianan's qualifications in advance.
Only then did Zhao Jianan, a legend at Tsinghua University, skip a grade, graduate early, and become a rising star in the institute.
All of this is closely related to the elderly.
Of course, Zhao Jianan himself is good enough. If he is not good, he will not meet the requirements for an elderly person.
Mr. An said calmly, "Jian'an, what do you think?"
He takes himself as a student very seriously.
Although this was a private matter of the An family, Mr. An never thought of hiding it from his students.
Zhao Jianan pondered for a moment, and then said in a calm tone, "Teacher, everyone has selfish motives, and Uncle Zhang is no exception."
This is speaking for the guard Lao Zhang.
This is really not Zhao Jianan's style.
Mr. An stared at him suspiciously for a moment, but he was a veteran and had interacted with this student countless times.
I have to admit that he is such a young man in his prime.
"to be honest."
Zhao Jianan touched his nose uncomfortably and lowered his eyes.
All I saw was that his face was fair, his eyelashes were slender, straight and curled, and the tail of his eyes was pointed upward, as if there were thousands of stars hidden inside.
There was warmth on his face, and his tone did not change.
The words he spoke were filled with an indescribable determination.
"Teacher, the truth is, Uncle Zhang can be replaced."
Criticizing the host's affairs and trying to interfere.
This kind of person cannot be kept.
"Oh? Why?"
Mr. An rubbed his crutches, turned around, and sat on the mahogany chair behind the desk. He nodded with interest.
Meet the teacher and test yourself.
Zhao Jian'an cleared his voice, as gentle as jade, "People who criticize the master and are dissatisfied with your decision-making will be a disaster sooner or later."
It's not that Old An didn't know this truth. He sighed, with a look of vicissitudes on his face, and his eyes were far-reaching, "In Jian'an, there is only one old man in the An family, Lao Zhang."
Accompany him.
His voice was somewhat aged and nostalgic.
Almost all the Anjia people got separated along the way!
Zhao Jianan's eyes flashed, and he took a coat and put it on the old man's shoulders. He said in a gentle tone, "Teacher, you are still related by blood."
"True blood relationship."
He emphasized that there are three words of truth.
He didn't mention anyone by name, but the meaning behind his words was obvious.
Who are the real blood relatives?
it goes without saying.
An Lao was silent. Even the thick coat on his body could not warm him up. After a long time, he suddenly said something meaningless.
"I have done wrong things, irreparable wrongs."
Then, his words seemed to come to an abrupt end, and he did not intend to discuss this topic any more.
So, he naturally changed the subject, "Jian'an, what do you think of Ningning?"
This sudden change of topic made Zhao Jianan stunned for a moment, but he quickly came back to his senses.
What does Ningning think?
In his mind, Gu Ning's bright and charming face with almond eyes and peach cheeks unexpectedly appeared.
Just like the budding peach blossoms on the branches in March, fresh and delicate.
It's so beautiful.
Just thinking about that face.
The tips of Zhao Jianan's ears turned red unconsciously.
He coughed lightly, made a fist to cover the clouds on his cheeks, and whispered, "She's fine."
Just three words.
Expressed his opinion on Gu Ning.
Master An was stunned by his student's appearance.
He has known Jian'an for many years, but he has always been quiet, calm and self-possessed.
When I was in school, many bold female students tried to pursue him, but they were all rejected by him.
On the contrary, now he just mentioned his granddaughter's name.
That's it.
Mr. An's heavy mood relaxed a little, "How about you accompany Mr. Zhang to visit An's house?"
"Then it's better for students to be respectful than to obey."
Zhao Jianan agreed without any hesitation.
Mr. An touched his beard and felt that the coat covered by the students was a little warmer.
He smiled, then suddenly remembered something and put away his smile again.
Suddenly asked, "Has the loan sharking matter been resolved?"
The previous incident had caused quite a stir, and he even complained a little more about Zhou Zhiyuan, a young man.
He is not suitable for girl Ning Ning.
When the matter of loan sharking was brought up, Zhao Jianan looked a little serious and said, "It's still being resolved."
That means it's not completely over.
After thinking for a while, Zhao Jianan explained.
"This loan sharking is very involved, including the Zhu family, the Yao family, the Chen family, the Xu family, and those who have not yet been found out -" the Zhao family.
What has been exposed so far is enough to shock the upper circles.
As for the Zhao family, according to current news, they were implicated by Zhu Biao.
However, Zhao Jianan was not sure whether his uncles were really involved.
If involved.
What awaits them is an immeasurable consequence.
Mr. An looked a little more solemn, "Jian'an, the teacher wants to ask you a favor."
"Teacher, please tell me." Zhao Jianan bowed and listened attentively.
The sunlight in the study shines through the white snow and reflects on his face, making his skin appear whiter, more transparent and moist.
This is an extremely clean and clear man.
Mr. An was also extremely satisfied. He tapped his fingers on the table and said in a deep voice, "During this time, you should go find Ning Ning more often."
Spend some time with her.
Divert your attention from the dark side.
Although Zhou Zhiyuan used Yao Huiru instead, it diverted everyone's attention.
But someone like him who knows the inside story can tell it at a glance.
Replacing him with Yao Huiru is not a long-term solution.
It's not that fast to catch the person behind it.
It's not that he didn't understand what Jian'an was about to say but hesitated.
I'm afraid, this matter also involves the Zhao family.
However, An Lao is not very clear on how much is involved.
But as a student, he knew it well, and it was impossible for him to do such a thing.
That's enough.
There is a saying that it is dark under the lamp.
In An Lao's opinion, his student is more suitable for Gu Ning than Zhou Zhiyuan.
They are similar in age and have family connections, so he can make it simple if he wants.
The most important thing is that he is an extremely outstanding student.
Even if he gets married in the future, he will still have time to accompany Ning Ning.
Instead of being like Zhou Zhiyuan, who might disappear quietly for half a year.
This is really hard work for a wife.
Zhao Jian'an hesitated for a moment when he heard Mr. An's words, "But Gu Ning doesn't seem to welcome me very much."
Last time, he went to pick up Gu Ning from the hospital in the name of Mr. An.
It has aroused Gu Ning's vigilance.
He could feel that Gu Ning obviously wanted to distance himself from him.
Moreover, after being discharged from the hospital, Gu Ning did not contact her at all. Obviously, this was not in line with Gu Ning's usual behavior.
She is very grateful and very polite.
Mr. An raised his eyes and looked at this extremely proud and outstanding student. He joked, "Thirty-six strategies, beautiful man strategy."
Zhao Jianan, "..."
When did his teacher become such a scoundrel?
…
Gu family.
After Gu Ning reviewed the homework brought by Yuan Yuan, he found something to do and took out the trash.
However, as soon as she went out, Gu Yao, who was next door, also came out of the Liao family's door.
She was also carrying garbage in her hands.
This is strange.
Gu Ning was even a little confused, as if she had gone back to the time when she was in the Gu family. Gu Yao lived in the Gu family's big room, and she was in the Gu family's third room.
The two met.
Gu Ning originally planned to ignore her, but suddenly thought of something, stopped and smiled inexplicably.
"Congratulations, your bereaved dog has found a new owner as expected."
Only when a dog is in a hurry will he jump over the wall.
She wanted to know how Gu Yao managed to get into the next door.
Gu Yao's face suddenly froze, "Gu Ning, don't be proud of yourself. I was kicked out of the An family, but you can't go back. Let me tell you, you can't even think of going back to the An family!"
"I am a lost dog. How do you think you are doing better? At least I have been to the An family. As for you, the An family doesn't recognize you at all."
She hasn't finished speaking yet.
The black, snow-covered car rumbled to the entrance of the alley and stopped in front of Gu Ning.
