Hearing her speak, Wulanyu turned her head to look at her seriously. She was stunned by her face and didn't answer for a long time. Her face, which was a little blue from the cold, suddenly turned bright red.

"How...how did you know?"

Gu Zuozuo couldn't help but feel sorry for him for three seconds; she felt that even one more second would be a waste.

"Do they think you might be an idiot? Aren't you cold?"

She was wearing a thermostat and had put on a sweater and windbreaker over it. Everyone else was still wearing their cotton-padded coats, but this guy went out in just a shirt and trousers. If he's not stupid, then who is?

The scene suddenly fell silent, and after a long while, Qi Meng's loud laughter could almost lift the roof off.

Even Wulan Xun was stunned for a moment. When he came to his senses, he looked at his son, who was frozen beside him, and couldn't help but curl the corners of his lips into a smile.

"Aren't you going to your room to change your clothes? Aren't you cold?"

Wulanyu snorted coldly and ran away.

He's never been so humiliated in his life!

After the laughter subsided, the atmosphere finally relaxed, and Gu Zuozuo revealed her plans.

"Uncle, do you want to work at a research institute?"

"I couldn't get in, they rejected me...a research institute?!"

Ulan Xun sat up abruptly, his tone incredulous.

Gu Zuozuo nodded and handed him a contact number.

"This is the phone number of the director of the Beijing Municipal Research Institute. You can contact him and tell him that Gu Zuozuo gave it to you. He will know what to do."

The hand behind her silently released a paper crane into the air, while Gu Zuozuo remained serious.

"Really? You have those big shots' phone numbers? You're not just here to scam a free meal, are you?"

Wulanyu, who had changed into a cotton-padded jacket and trousers, looked suspicious.

Could this beautiful woman be here specifically to deceive her father, whose IQ is off the charts but whose emotional intelligence is zero?

If it were someone else, they might not think that way, but if the person being deceived is his father, then it's possible, because his mother said that his father was tricked into going to the marriage registration office by her.

Before Gu Zuozuo could even speak, Qi Meng, her die-hard fan, exploded.

"You're the one who freeloads! Your whole family freeloads! My sister is a real woman! Do you really think everyone is like you? You're a hopeless case!"

The whole family = Uncle = Ulanxun:……→_→

If you're going to curse someone, just curse them, don't drag him into it.

Wulanyu was stunned and somewhat bewildered by the scolding.

What's gotten into his little cousin today? Why is she always so impulsive?

Li Mo was both amused and exasperated, and managed to calm his girlfriend down.

He'd come to understand just how cheeky his future little cousin was during this time; the two cousins ​​bickering whenever they met was practically a daily occurrence.

The dinner turned into a chaotic mess, and Gu Zuozuo witnessed firsthand what a pair of sworn enemies siblings looked like. If the two hadn't been sitting apart, they probably would have started fighting.

After dinner, the group sat by the stove, roasting peanuts, chestnuts, and sweet potatoes. The whole house was filled with the irresistible sweet aroma of sweet potatoes.

"Mengmeng, when are you going back to Malutun?"

Qi Meng took the whole plate of peanuts that Li Mo had peeled and ate them with a satisfied expression.

"I was planning to go back in three days. What about you?"

"I can be there anytime..."

Knock knock~

There was a knock on the door, and the people chatting inside turned around. Cai Wenyue stood there smiling and waving at them.

"Good evening. I'm here to pick up Sister Gu and to deliver some documents to you."

Gu Zuozuo raised an eyebrow. So fast?

Cai Wenyue handed a sealed document bag to Gu Zuozuo and breathed on it.

It's already March, why is it still so cold?
