Gu Ning had never thought that Zhou Zhiyuan could be so shameless.
He didn't even expect that such words would come from Zhou Zhiyuan's mouth.
In her eyes, Zhou Zhiyuan has always been a serious and upright person.
Such joking words came out of his mouth.
It actually made Gu Ning a little bit incredulous.
She thought that if this person had been more flexible at the beginning, maybe they wouldn't have reached this point.
However, now that he is making changes, everything is a bit late.
On the contrary, Mr. An next to him was a little surprised. He didn't expect Zhou Zhiyuan to say such words, "A family."
These three words came out of his mouth.
Although the An family has a high reputation, decades have passed since the rescue of Anzhou City.
An Lao even thought that maybe in a few decades, no one would be able to remember An Jia.
But Zhou Zhiyuan is different. The Zhou family is at its peak.
Zhou Zhiyuan is a very important figure in Anzhou City.
Old An glanced at Zhou Zhiyuan and Gu Ning. He knew that the two had known each other before.
But why do people find Zhou Zhiyuan’s words strange?
An Lao's eyes were a bit suspicious.
Even the strength of the handshake increased a bit.
However, Zhou Zhiyuan's expression remained unchanged and he left at the first touch, saying, "The military and civilians are one family."
This explanation is quite reasonable.
Mr. An hummed and said to Gu Ning, "Ning Ning, invite Comrade Zhou in!"
After all, he is the elder. Although Zhou Zhiyuan has a high status, he is still a junior.
He came out to pick up Zhou Zhiyuan in person, which was enough to give him face.
If so, he was here as a guest, which would seem like An Jia was a bit too clingy.
After all, the An family is somewhat noble and noble.
Gu Ning didn't expect that Mr. An would ask her to arrange Zhou Zhiyuan's affairs.
She frowned subconsciously, a little reluctantly, but then thought of An Lao's situation and An Jia's situation.
She sighed and whispered, "Comrade Zhou, follow me."
It's just that I feel unhappy in my heart.
Zhou Zhiyuan pursed his lips, "I can go in by myself, don't worry about me."
All he had to do was come to An's house and show his face, and Gu Ning's life would be much easier when they returned to An's house.
In the circle, those who are good at calculation will also weigh it.
However, there is no need to mention these in front of Gu Ning.
Gu Ning was a little surprised. She nodded and quickly turned her attention elsewhere.
Leading Zhou Zhiyuan towards An's house.
However, all the way in, Zhou Zhiyuan was extremely imposing.
Even though she was two meters away from Zhou Zhiyuan, she could still feel his intimidating aura.
When he saw Gu Ning, he deliberately distanced himself and walked several steps in front of him.
Zhou Zhiyuan pursed his lips, and there was no emotion on his handsome face.
A pair of phoenix eyes stared at Gu Ning's back quietly, slender and thin, with thin and lonely feet.
The deliberately widened distance represents the deep estrangement between the two.
Zhou Zhiyuan just thought that when he went to Gu's house for the first time, she was the one who led him into the house.
However, at that time, Gu Ning was too enthusiastic and kept chattering.
And this time——
Sadness flashed across Zhou Zhiyuan's face. In the past, he felt that Gu Ning was not good like that.
Now, I feel that Gu Ning was excellent in the past.
At least, the distance between the two people is not that far.
And as Gu Ning led Zhou Zhiyuan in.
The originally lively recognition banquet suddenly became quiet.
Everyone turned their attention in unison. It would have been surprising if Zhao Jianan and his four brothers came before.
Zhou Zhiyuan's arrival was quite shocking.
Who is Zhou Zhiyuan?
That is the Prince of Hell of Anzhou City, since he was seconded to Anzhou City from the army.
Zhou Zhiyuan's series of achievements are enough to blind people.
Not to mention, the collapse of the previous special department and the replacement of old and new cadres.
Take the recent loan sharking case, he brought down hundreds of people in Anzhou City.
These people are not ordinary people!
Which one, there is no Prince Ma behind it.
However, even so, it did not benefit Zhou Zhiyuan at all.
In fact, the Chen family, a scholarly family, has completely collapsed.
A century-old reputation is completely gone.
And the initiator of all this was Zhou Zhiyuan.
The people who came to attend the recognition banquet were not ordinary people.
However, even before, they were still afraid of Zhou Zhiyuan for some time.
I'm afraid that the loan shark case won't involve them in the end.
But fortunately, Zhou Zhiyuan, although his methods are iron-blooded, he still distinguishes between public and private matters.
After clearing out some people, it came to an abrupt end.
This also made everyone breathe a sigh of relief.
When there is less fear, there is more flattery.
The loan shark case is really too involved, but such a difficult case and the big bosses can be brought down by Zhou Zhiyuan.
One can imagine how capable Zhou Zhiyuan is.
Many people want to curry favor with Zhou Zhiyuan, but Zhou Zhiyuan has almost no weaknesses.
He doesn't like anything, which makes it impossible for anyone to have a relationship with him.
What's more, someone was interested in the Zhou family, but as soon as they took action, they were warned by Zhou Zhiyuan.
This also made the people who were flattering before stop.
However, they never expected that such a prominent figure would appear at the An family recognition banquet today.
Is it because of An Lao’s reputation?
Everyone couldn't help but focus on An Lao, who was chatting with others, very vaguely.
It happened that Mr. An was talking to Qi Qingyuan.
He laughed and said, "My old man is not that proud. Comrade Zhou is here for Pingle's family!"
After a pause, his voice was neither high nor low, "They were old acquaintances in the past."
But it was enough for the guests sitting at the table outside to hear it.
Suddenly, everyone looked different.
Even his attitude towards Gu Jianshe was somewhat warm.
Yuan Yuan's table.
Yuan Yuan was eating melon seeds. She was very interested and whispered to Lang Jingshan, "Comrade Zhou, you are so awesome!"
She could clearly feel it when Zhou Zhiyuan came in.
The atmosphere at the scene was completely different.
Langjingshan said nothing.
However, Zhao Mingqing, who was getting up to pour himself tea, glanced at him and saw a pair of peach blossom eyes, flickering and looking very familiar.
"Sister Yuan Yuan, I, Uncle Zhou, have always been like this."
Let others look up to you.
Wherever Zhou Zhiyuan goes, there is focus.
It was the same in the army, in their compound, and now in Anjia.
Yuan Yuan was stunned for a moment, then she tilted her head and thought for a moment, "Sister Yuan Yuan? You seem to be older than me?"
She remembered that Gu Ning mentioned this guy named Zhao Mingqing.
It seems that I am studying in a foreign language college.
Zhao Mingqing paused in pouring water, then handed the water to Yuan Yuan with a smile, "But I'm only seventeen years old!"
At this time, Yuan Yuan hesitated, "Then, indeed, ask me to call you, sister."
She stuttered, but Zhao Mingqing and the others showed no abnormality.
This also made Yuan Yuan breathe a sigh of relief.
They chatted with Zhao Mingqing all the time. As for Zhao Jianan and Zhao Guodong, they were both silent.
It is difficult for Yuan Yuan to take care of her.
However, because of the chatty Zhao Mingqing, the atmosphere at their table quickly became lively.
However, their eyes were still on Gu Ning and Zhou Zhiyuan.
As he watched, Gu Ning was about to lead Zhou Zhiyuan into the table in the room.
Zhao Mingqing took a sip of barley tea and pushed Zhao Jianan's shoulder with his elbow.
"Hey, brother, aren't you going to go in with Gu Ning and the others?"
He and Zhao Guodong had long since given up pursuing Gu Ning.
Gu Ning is the lesbian they can only watch from a distance.
However, he noticed that his elder brother was obviously different and fell into it.
A wry smile flashed across Zhao Jianan's gentle and jade-like face, and even the fragrant barley tea was a little astringent, "I won't go in."
He didn't want to embarrass Gu Ning.
And he clearly felt that when he, Zhou Zhiyuan, and Gu Ning were together.
Gu Ning was very embarrassed.
Zhao Mingqing sighed, his peach blossom eyes twinkling more and more, "Brother, you can't get a wife like this."
His eldest brother is good at everything, but he is a little too tame.
Zhao Jian'an grasped the tea cup tightly, his knuckled hands showing a bit of emotion.
He said warmly, "Ming and Qing, don't ruin Comrade Gu Ning's reputation."
It's his business that he likes Gu Ning.
He didn't want to cause trouble to Gu Ning because of himself.
These words made Lang Jingshan, who had been feeding Yingying.
Suddenly he raised his head and looked over, "Brother Jian'an, you are a good person."
Although he doesn't like her, Zhao Jianan likes his sister.
However, Zhao Jianan was able to do this.
From Langjingshan's point of view, it is better than many others.
When Zhao Jianan heard this, he smiled bitterly, "What's the use of a good person?"
Gu Ning didn't like him.
The people next to him were just eating. When the eldest brother Sun Shanghe saw this scene, he clicked his tongue twice!
Young people, the breath of spring is everywhere.
On the contrary, Zhao Mingqing rolled his eyes, his curly hair trembled, and drew closer to Yuan Yuan.
"Sister Yuan Yuan, does Sister Gu Ning have someone you like at school?"
This question stunned Yuan Yuan.
She whispered, "I don't know."
Zhao Mingqing was not discouraged. He opened his mouth and kept talking.
On the other hand, Yuan Yuan was innocent, and after just a few words, she was basically tricked by Zhao Mingqing.
He smiled slyly, "Brother, you still have a chance."
Is there still a chance?
Thinking of Zhou Zhiyuan, Zhao Jianan felt extremely bitter. If it were someone else, he would really be confident in himself.
However, Zhou Zhiyuan.
The leader of the compound was someone he once admired.
In front of this person, he really has no confidence at all!
But, he couldn't say this to his younger brother.
After all, it is unbelievable that Zhou Zhiyuan would like a lesbian.
The parties involved, Gu Ning and Zhou Zhiyuan, were not as cordial as everyone imagined.
Instead, he felt a bit alienated and cold.
Gu Ning led Zhou Zhiyuan to the main table and she thought about it.
Asking Ma Wang to add a seat in advance, she whispered twice to the master next to her, Qi Qingyuan.
Qi Qingyuan greeted Zhou Zhiyuan, "Comrade Zhou, come and sit down."
After all, the young apprentice is a lesbian, so it is inconvenient to entertain male guests.
However, Qi Qingyuan looked at his young disciple's sullen face and sighed, "You go out and greet others first, I'm here."
He is a master and has been an old friend of Mr. An for many years.
He can be considered half an An family member.
Greeting guests for your apprentice is also a matter of course.
Gu Ning hummed, thanked her in a low voice, and left.
However, when passing by Zhou Zhiyuan, he was suddenly stopped by Zhou Zhiyuan in public, "I'm here to give you a gift."
His voice was cold and his temperament was amazing.
Just like that, blocking Gu Ning's way.
At this moment, everyone looked over.
Gu Ning never expected it.
Would Zhou Zhiyuan suddenly make such a move? Should we be thankful that Zhou Zhiyuan has always been self-restrained and polite, cool and self-possessed?
He didn't hold her hand and embarrassed her.
It's just that he blocked her way.
Gu Ning took a deep breath, she really didn't want to deal with Zhou Zhiyuan.
The next second.
Gu Xiangfang came over when he had free time. He looked at Zhou Zhiyuan with a somewhat complicated look, but after all, he acted like an elder brother.
He smiled and greeted, "Uncle Zhou, the gift-giver is over here. I will take you there."
It has to be said that Gu Xiangfang has also been trained and is extremely smart.
Calling Uncle Zhou not only relieved Gu Ning's mood, but also explained the relationship between Gu Ning and Zhou Zhiyuan.
It also revealed the relationship between them and Zhou Zhiyuan.
This also gave Zhou Zhiyuan's previous abrupt actions a reasonable explanation.
Zhou Zhiyuan paced, staring at Gu Xiangfang for a moment until Gu Xiangfang's scalp went numb.
Finally, Zhou Zhiyuan spoke, and he said calmly, "Take me there."
If so, with his usual temperament, let alone attending banquets, even giving gifts would be given by others.
However, he wanted to come to Gu Ning's recognition banquet in person and deliver it in person.
I can’t give any reason, I just thought about it.
Gu Xiangfang breathed a sigh of relief and led Zhou Zhiyuan to the hall.
Gu Ning stood there, stunned for a while, and then slowly moved out.
She could almost predict the rumors outside.
Indeed, as she thought, there were whispers outside, "I didn't expect that a person like Zhou Zhiyuan would come to the wedding recognition banquet."
"No, otherwise, the An family would be very proud!"
"You are wrong. Comrade Zhou Zhiyuan's coming has nothing to do with the An family. You didn't see that he came for Anpingle and the others, and even called Anpingle uncle."
"Ask An Ping Le to call him uncle? Then before, Gu Xiangfang called Zhou Zhiyuan uncle? Why is this relationship so messed up!"
"It doesn't matter if it's chaos or not, Anpingle and the others have not only Anjia behind them, but also the giant Buddha Zhou Zhiyuan, so they can take it easy in the future."
"Well, have you noticed that Comrade Zhou Zhiyuan seems to treat Anpingle's daughter a little differently?"
"I also discovered that, don't tell me, the man is talented and the woman is beautiful, but there seems to be a generation difference?"
Gu Ning didn't want to hear this. She quickly avoided everyone and prepared to go to Yuan Yuan's table, but she thought of Zhao Jian'an.
She had a headache, so she simply didn't go out. She took a break and went to the backyard.
It didn't take long.
Gu Xiangcong came over and whispered to Gu Ning, "He's gone."
Gu Ning was a little stunned. She looked at the old tree with thorn branches under the wall in the backyard and was a little speechless.
