Mr. An immediately stared, "I think the old man of the Zhou family is a fool."
Give up hope of survival for a bastard?
Is his biological son no longer his child?
What an old fool.
After hearing this, Gu Ning felt that Mr. An was right to scold him, and that Mr. Zhou was indeed quite confused.
However, the deceased is gone, and it is useless to say more.
Gu Ning supported Mr. An and said, "Get ready to attend the funeral next week."
Mr. An hummed and looked at Gu Ning's face, "Ning Ning, what do you think of Zhou Zhiyuan?"
Gu Ning was surprised. She thought about it and said calmly, "I like it."
If we say that the previous deliberate seduction was just to take revenge on Zhou Wenyan and Gu Yao.
Later, during repeated contacts with Zhou Zhiyuan, Gu Ning discovered that this man was very attractive.
He doesn't talk much, but he does practical things.
He has a cold personality and never speaks sweet words, but he will do everything he promises.
He is handsome, but he has never had any gossip outside. It should be said that he has no relationship with any lesbians.
Wherever she is, she will always be Gu Ning in Zhou Zhiyuan's eyes.
He has status, and he also has a lesbian who throws himself into his arms, but she has always been European-style and self-sufficient.
Gu Ning discovered that all the advantages of a man can be found in Zhou Zhiyuan, and similarly, all the shortcomings of a man can also be found in Zhou Wenyan.
Perhaps, Zhou Wenyan is not a bloodline of the Zhou family, which can explain why the men of the Zhou family have always been together, but Zhou Wenyan is a playboy and a scumbag.
Faced with Gu Ning so frankly admitting that he likes Zhou Zhiyuan.
Mr. An sighed, "I admit that Zhou Zhiyuan is very good, but the Zhou family is too complicated, and he is also old."
For such a deep man, Mr. An felt that he was not suitable for Gu Ning.
What is suitable for Gu Ning is a man like Jian'an, who is as gentle as jade, and everything will be centered on Ning Ning.
Gu Ning shook his head, "Grandpa, the Zhou family is no longer complicated."
Now Zhou Zhiyuan is the only one left in the entire Zhou family.
Yao Huiru and Zhou Wenyan were kicked out of the Zhou family, and the death of Mr. Zhou meant that the Zhou family, which had been in a quagmire in the past, suddenly fell silent.
It won't take long for the muddy water in this pond to become clear.
Gu Ning is sure that for such a new Zhou family, there will never be a cleaner family than his in the compound.
because--
There is only Zhou Zhiyuan in the Zhou family, and he will build the Zhou family into an iron barrel, an iron barrel without any defects.
this--
Mr. An snorted, "Even if the Zhou family is complicated, you will still dive in, right?"
Gu Ning thought about it and realized it was true.
"You really don't want to consider Jian'an's child?"
He was asked to say that Jian An's child has a good family background, good appearance, young age, high education, good character, and almost no shortcomings. In Mr. An's opinion, this is the most suitable marriage partner for Gu Ning.
Gu Ning shook her head and said in a calm tone, "Grandpa, I am not a purely good person. In fact, I am a bit vicious. I will use any means to deal with my enemies."
"But Jian'an is not, grandpa. Jian'an is like a clear lake. He is always clean and calm, while I am in a mire. It's better not to make the other party dirty."
Zhao Jianan is too clean.
He was so clean that Gu Ning felt out of place with him.
They have never been the same kind of people.
But - she and Zhou Zhiyuan are.
These words made Zhao Jianan, who was hiding behind the study, look a little sad. He should have known this.
If Gu Ning is interested in him, he has devoted himself to tutoring him in the past two years. It is obvious that the two of them have had countless opportunities to be alone together.
However, there were never any sparks.
Gu Ning's eyes were always calm when she looked at him. Even if she accidentally touched his hand, she was not shy or nervous at all.
This is always a sign that a woman has no interest in a man.
After listening to Gu Ning's words, Mr. An couldn't help but sigh, "It seems that you two are destined to be together."
Gu Ning hummed, "That's the case from the beginning."
For two lifetimes, there was no Zhao Jianan in her life, but Zhou Zhiyuan was.
The all-pervasive Zhou Zhiyuan.
After Mr. An took a rest, Zhao Jianan was still a little unwilling. He found Gu Ning and mustered up his courage, "If I met you earlier, would I have -" a chance?
This is a somewhat humble question.
Gu Ning shook his head, "No."
She will not fall in love with any man except Zhou Zhiyuan.
It was even an accident for Zhou Zhiyuan. When she first seduced him, she had no feelings between men and women and just wanted to take pure revenge on Zhou Wenyan.
However, in the process, she herself fell into the trap unknowingly.
This is how Zhou Zhiyuan came about.
Zhou Zhiyuan is her exception, the only exception to Gu Ning.
Before Zhao Jianan could finish his words, he was interrupted by Gu Ning.
He knew that he had no chance with Gu Ning.
He smiled bitterly, "It's just my imagination."
I thought that without Zhou Zhiyuan, maybe he would be with Gu Ning.
However, Gu Ning's words suddenly made him understand the reality.
impossible.
Even without Zhou Zhiyuan, Zhao Jian'an wouldn't have had his turn.
This made Zhao Jianan's heart suddenly break into pieces.
"Gu Ning, you are so cruel."
After all, they had been getting along for a while.
Gu Ning was a little apologetic, "Teacher Jian'an, if you don't want to hear the truth, then I can lie."
Lies sound good, but the truth sounds bad.
These words made Zhao Jianan sigh again, "You are really——"
"As a girl, it's not lovable for you to be so rigid."
Gu Ning was stunned for a moment. She had been like this all her life. She was straight-forward. Maybe that was what Zhao Jianan said. She was tough and unpleasant.
but--
It cannot be changed.
Gu Ning couldn't help but laugh, "That's it, it can't be changed anyway."
Zhao Jian'an looked up at her and wanted to say "I wish you happiness" several times, but he couldn't say it out loud.
After all, he really liked it once.
"you--"
"Um?"
"nothing."
"As long as you live a good life."
Zhao Jianan left.
Gu Ning looked at his back, feeling a little sad, but she had no regrets. From the beginning, her attitude was very clear that there was no possibility of a relationship between her and Zhao Jianan.
A straightforward refusal is better than being indecisive.
She comforted herself.

funeral parlor.
Zhou Zhiyuan personally watched Mr. Zhou receive a jar of ashes after his cremation.
Then hug it to your chest.
At this time, Ge Weiguo walked in. When he saw the urn, he was stunned for a moment and said, "My condolences."
He has said these two words countless times in the past few days.
Zhou Zhiyuan hummed and asked, "Have you checked everything?"
