"Wait, I'll go with you." Gu Yanci, who was just about to step inside, saw the curtain open and the person inside, holding a scarf, walked towards her.

Gu Yanci couldn't describe her feelings at that moment. She only knew that she couldn't see anything else, and all she could hear was Chu Xingyue's voice. Her heart was pounding.

He only turned around and stood next to Cheng Guobang as if nothing had happened when Cheng Guobang's voice interrupted his thoughts.

"Why are you out here? It's freezing outside. I can go by myself. Go back inside." Cheng Guobang saw Chu Xingyue walking this way and told her to go back quickly. Girls should stay indoors. Why should she go out and freeze with a grown man like him?

At this moment, Chu Xingyue was just a girl in Cheng Guobang's eyes; he forgot that Chu Xingyue was a tough soldier.

When Chu Xingyue saw Gu Yanci, she remembered that her family had eaten here before and had run into this man once. She had thought he was good-looking before, but now that she saw him in person, he was just too good-looking. In Chu Xingyue's eyes, this kind of man could only be admired.

Chu Xingyue didn't speak, but nodded slightly to Gu Yanci, then turned to Cheng Guobang and said:

"Let's go wait together. I don't want him nagging me later." "That's true. Let's go together. Ah Ci, we'll head to the entrance first. See you later!"

"Hmm," Gu Yanci looked at Chu Xingyue's back. If meeting once or twice could be considered a coincidence, then meeting so many times must be fate. Gu Yanci was certain that he had the same feeling every time he saw Chu Xingyue. He reached out and touched his chest, feeling his heart pounding. The only time he had ever experienced this in his life was when he met Chu Xingyue a few times, which was very novel.

"Brother, what are you doing standing at the door?" Li Si came out and saw Gu Yanci standing at the door, staring blankly at the gate.

From his direction, he could only see the figures of a man and a woman passing by.

"What are you looking at?" He peeked around and looked left and right.

"I didn't see anything, let's go inside."

After saying that, he simply lifted the curtain and walked inside.

"Aci's here, come in and sit down." There are pretty many people inside today.

Xia Yijun, Gu Yanci, Chu Qingzhi, Lu Zhou, Li Si, Cheng Jun, Jiang Wang, Fu Jingxing

Gu Yanci and Xia Yijun were a little older and joined the army together, fighting side by side for many years. Later, because his mother was in poor health and he was often worried about her, Gu Yanci simply transferred back to civilian life and started his own business. Li Si helped manage it when they were in college.

Chu Qingzhi, Jiang Wang, and Lu Zhou were two or three years younger than him. They had fought side by side for several years before Jiang Wang retired from the army due to some family reasons.

The two younger ones at the back were just begging and clinging on, but none of them minded, since they were the younger brothers who had grown up with them since they were little.

Because of their status, the few who were still in the military could not directly participate in the shareholding, so Gu Yanci directly distributed dividends to them.

After all, some of the industries Gu Yanci was involved in were military supplies.

"Xiao Jun, you're next door, let's go say hello together later."

Gu Yanci made no mention of Cheng Guobang's suggestion that Cheng Jun go there alone.

"My fifth uncle is here? Who else is there?" Cheng Jun asked, puzzled.

"They said the department head invited me to dinner, and I saw there was a girl with me too," he said casually.

"What? What is my fifth uncle trying to do? Is he trying to ruin his reputation in his later years?" Cheng Jun exclaimed.
