Seeing the astonished look on his old mother's face, Gu Jinyu thought the name was familiar, so he reacted and immediately said, "Isn't this the woman who stole Manman's fiance?"
Mrs. Qin stared at the registration form for a long time and nodded, "That's her."
Gu Jinyu's eyes flashed fiercely and he said, "Mom, didn't you specifically ban her? How come this person can still find a teacher and still participate in the competition? And what's going on with this guy named Che Chengfeng?"
Mrs. Qin said in a serious tone, "Shut up, Che Chengfeng's status is very valuable, and many people want to give him some bad treatment. I didn't expect that she could invite Mr. Che to come out."
After being scolded, Gu Jinyu was not in a good mood, but he still said patiently: "What should we do? We can't let people bully Manman like this!"
Gu Jinyu becomes angry whenever he thinks of his niece being robbed of a good marriage.
Anger is mixed with unknown unwillingness.
After all, becoming an in-law with the Huo family has only advantages and no disadvantages. He can definitely develop his career without having to settle for the eldest brother.
It's a pity...the engagement was cancelled.
"I'm aware of this matter, so you don't have to worry about it."
"But mom..."
"No need, please go back first."
"good."
After Gu Jinyu left, Mrs. Qin sat alone in the study for a long time, and finally took out her mobile phone and dialed a familiar mobile number.
The old man Che who was playing with the birds saw his cell phone ringing and picked it up.
"Hello? Who is it?"
"it's me."
"Hey, old woman? It's so rare that you actually came to me."
"You took on an apprentice?"
The old man Che who was playing with the birds stopped and his expression became much calmer.
"Do you know all this?"
"Give up that child, I owe you a favor."
Old Man Che laughed.
"What do I want from you, an old woman with half a foot in the mud? Keep it and pay it back after you die?"
"...That kid had a problem with me."
"How old are you? How old is that child? How dare you fight with a junior?"
After being humiliated several times, Mrs. Qin's face did not look good.
"My granddaughter and the boy from the Huo family were originally an unmarried couple, and she was the one who got involved."
"You're mistaken, my mistress is holding An Ning in her hands, it's very good."
Mrs. Qin almost hung up the phone in anger.
"Che Chengfeng! You won't agree, right?"
Old Man Che's eyes became sharper and his words became aggressive.
"What did I promise? You are really stubborn about not letting the water flow out even if you pull out the plug! How long do you think you can control it? As for your granddaughter, I don't think it's noisy to be a street performer at this level!"
"Snapped."
The call was immediately hung up.
It can be seen that Mrs. Qin over there is very angry.
Old Man Che was not afraid at all, and even muttered: "Humph, now you are putting it in front of me. If my hand hadn't been injured, you wouldn't have had the right to speak!"
"Before, I dared to issue a ban order in the circle, refused to accept An Ning's apprenticeship, even rigged the competition, and pushed a straw bag onto the podium. I was able to do such dirty things. I'm really not afraid of not being safe in the evening!"
"I want to see how you regret it! That child is as good as I have ever seen. Some people are born to have this kind of food."
After muttering, Old Man Che continued to feed the birds.
Cheng Anning had no idea what was going on, and she didn't know that Master Che, who had always spoken coldly to her and wished he could call her a piece of trash three hundred times a day, would defend her like this behind her back.
She practiced and competed without any distractions.
Then, things seemed to get out of control.
Game after game, round after round.
Preliminary round, semi-finals, finals, and finally the prize.
The whole process was like flowing water, very smooth and without any twists and turns.
When Cheng Anning won her first first place, she cooked a large table of meals and invited all her friends to participate.
There was Yi Ze, Uncle Zhou, and Master Che. Even Huo Yan and the old man were no exception. Xiao Chao and Suisui also participated excitedly.
During the meal, Cheng Anning was very drunk, holding the bottle of wine and laughing all the time, her smiling face was extremely charming.
Ize was also drunk, holding up a cup and shouting: "An Ning! You are so awesome! First place! You are first place! You don't know that the judges are all scared by you! Hahaha, you are a genius!"
With that said, Yi Ze rushed over and hugged Cheng Anning.
But he was stopped midway.
When I looked up, I was almost sober from the wine.
"I'm drunk, I'm drunk! I'm wrong boss!"
Huo Yan directly asked someone to send Yize back.
The old man was also low on energy and was sent to his room to rest early by the housekeeper.
Xiao Chao and Sui Sui Sui were still young, and after a short while of trouble, they were sent to the reception room to sleep by the servants after they were full and sleepy.
Zhou Lansheng also knew that it was not good to stay, so he proposed to leave.
Before leaving, Zhou Lansheng smiled with wrinkles on his face and said to Cheng Anning: "An Ning, Uncle Zhou is proud of you. You are even better than your mother. Our goal will definitely be achieved."
Cheng Anning hugged the wine bottle and nodded cutely and obediently.
After everyone left, only Huo Yan and Cheng Anning were left.
Huo Yan thought she was very drunk, so he picked her up and hugged her sideways. His movements were incredibly gentle, and he coaxed her in a low voice: "You are drunk, go wash up and rest."
Cheng Anning remained motionless, neither saying yes nor saying no.
But she is so well-behaved that it makes people's hearts beat.
Huo Yan's eyes instantly became darker, and a certain emotion was amplified and suppressed.
He carried her back to the room.
"Can you take a shower by yourself? Or do you need my help?"
The last half of the sentence is full of ambiguity.
Fortunately, she was not that drunk, so she pushed him away and staggered into the bathroom.
Worried about her falling, Huo Yan didn't leave and kept waiting outside.
Not long after, the sound of water stopped, and Cheng Anning came out with a cry of water, her face becoming extraordinarily rosy.
After cleaning, she seemed to be much more awake.
"Thank you. It's very late. You should go and rest."
Huo Yan's eyes darkened, and he pressed her directly against the glass door of the bathroom. His voice was hoarse: "You can't wait to drive me away?"
Cheng Anning's consciousness was still anesthetized by alcohol, so he paused for a moment and said, "Huh?"
"I haven't congratulated you yet, what reward do you want? Just tell me, I will satisfy you."
Her eyes seemed to be covered with a layer of mist, moist, and her beautiful face appeared a bit ignorant and a bit charming.
She is very white, like fine warm jade, which makes people fall in love with her.
The hands on her waist moved up little by little until they touched her exposed skin.
Huo Yan's eyes became darker. Seeing that she remained silent, the remaining rationality in his mind disappeared.
He picked up Cheng Anning and placed her on the nearest table, facing each other. When he was about to step forward and pull off her bath towel——
She spoke.
"Can you return Yinglan to me?"
Suddenly, a basin of cold water was poured over the head, extinguishing the ambiguous atmosphere between the two of them. This chapter has been completed!
