Chapter 353 A Match Made in Heaven
Gu Zhen was about to get angry.
An Lianhe pushed him in time and hinted with her eyes that he should speak nicely.
Gu Zhen managed to control his emotions a little, but he still spoke sternly, refusing to allow any further discussion. "Yingying is a good child. She's a little shy, so you need to take the initiative. In short, the Liu family is a good match for ours, so a marriage between you and Yingying is the perfect match."
Gu Zhou's eyebrows were filled with laziness: "Just take care of it."
Gu Zhen sensed a lack of sincerity in his words.
Immediately, his eyes narrowed sternly: "You don't want to?"
Gu Zhou said nonchalantly: "No."
He responded, but didn't even bother to raise his eyes.
Obviously perfunctory.
Seeing this, Gu Zhen became furious.
Once again suppressed by the quick-witted An Lianhe, she smiled kindly, "Azhou, Mom knows you're not happy that we pulled you out today, but Mom and Dad are also anxious and have no other choice. Yingying is a good girl. Besides our family, there are many people who want to discuss marriage with the Liu family. Mom and Dad don't want to see such a good marriage fall into other families. If it weren't for the development of the Gu family, according to tradition, the eldest son should be married first. Now it's Xiaoyi first. And now we have finally found a family of equal status. If we really miss it, Mom will not be able to sleep at night."
Gu Zhou's eyes were cold and he didn't respond.
Before they continue to persuade.
He finally raised his dark eyes, a trace of disinterest flashed across his eyes, but it disappeared in an instant: "I understand, I will contact her."
An Lianhe immediately smiled and said, "Great, seeing that Yingying also likes you today, Mom is relieved. You should pay more attention to Yingying's art exhibition next time. This is a good opportunity to get closer to Yingying."
Gu Zhou said calmly: "Yeah."
He pressed the sofa cushion with his palm and propped himself up.
He lowered his eyes lazily and said, "I have a meeting tomorrow morning, so I'll go back first."
Gu Zhen wanted to say something.
But he was stopped by An Lianhe.
He could only give up with a dark face.
An Lianhe smiled: "Okay, go back and rest."
Gu Zhou nodded casually: "Yeah."
He said goodbye and left immediately.
There is no thought of staying any longer.
Step out of the gate.
The cold night wind hit his face, the sound of the pool was noisy, his eyes became duller, and his pace of leaving became faster.
Open the door, step on the gas, and drive away from the gate.
Speeding along the deserted road illuminated by street lights.
Until we parked on the side of the road opposite the apartment.
This location.
You can see their balcony.
There are dozens of households.
Only the light in her room was the brightest.
I am indeed afraid of the dark.
Gu Zhou looked at the empty balcony for a few seconds, grabbed the cigarette box on the center console, and took out a cigarette.
He threw it up and pursed his lips.
He lowered his eyes, a flash of scarlet appeared, and a thin smoke dissipated.
His dark eyes were slightly narrowed by the smoke, his cheeks tightened, and he took a deep breath.
The scent of agarwood gradually overwhelmed the faint smell of hawthorn candy.
His beating heart calmed down.
Just as he was about to exhale the smoke.
Out of the corner of my eye, I caught a glimpse of the slender figure walking out of the house.
The action of exhaling smoke is Lipton.
She held the steamed bun high, not knowing what she was playing with.
Even though there is distance and the light is behind us.
But he knew very well that she was smiling.
The corners of his lips curled up inadvertently.
She bent down and put the steamed bun down.
Turned his head.
This action is especially noticeable when backlit.
She was looking at his balcony.
Gu Zhou exhaled heavily from his cigarette, his heart beating again.
Uncontrolled.
His dark eyes stared at her without blinking.
She looked towards his balcony, was she trying to see if he had returned home, or...?
He has his own ideas.
But the next second.
She turned around and went back into the house.
It interrupted his wandering thoughts.
She turned off the headlights and left a small light on.
It looks like it's time to go to bed.
A gloomy look gradually welled up in Gu Zhou's eyes.
He sat in the car and waited until the smoke was completely burned out before restarting the car and turning into the parking lot entrance.
-
Luxury VIP reception room.
Upon hearing the news, An Lianhe frowned, "What did you say? The jewelry I had my eye on was bought by someone else?"
SALE kept bowing his head and apologizing: "Mrs. Gu, I'm really sorry. The new employee who came yesterday was not familiar with the rules, so... it was sold."
An Lianhe was slightly annoyed: "Xiao Xu, as the store manager, how could you allow such a low-level mistake to happen? I told you earlier that I wanted to order that set, and you even promised me that you would keep it. But now you tell me that it's gone?"
The salesperson was nervous: "This was indeed our mistake. To express our apology, we have temporarily held back several other sets of jewelry that arrived in the store yesterday. The fire and design are also first-class. You will be given priority to choose. We have also applied for a 9.4% discount for you. Can I show them to you?"
An Lianhe frowned and said, "You sent me those looks last night. Didn't I tell you I didn't like them?"
SALE had no choice but to apologize again and again.
An Lianhe waved her hand: "Forget it, it's already sold, there's no point in saying more."
She stood up from the sofa with a sullen face, picked up her bag and was about to leave.
The door of the VIP room suddenly opened.
An Lianhe looked up and saw the person coming, and her expression froze immediately.
Wang Yuanling, who had come in at the perfect time, smiled at her and said, "Hello, Auntie. What a coincidence! Are you here to choose jewelry too?"
An Lianhe quickly put away her surprised expression and put on a warm attitude: "Oh, Yuan Ling, what a coincidence! Yes, I came here to look at the jewelry, but unfortunately, the jewelry I liked has been bought."
As she spoke, she glanced at SALE unhappily.
How much performance she took care of.
As a result, such a mistake happened.
An Lianhe was very dissatisfied.
Wang Yuanling was surprised: "How could such a thing happen? What kind of thing are you looking for?"
SALE was immediately embarrassed: "Boss Ling, the set that Mrs. Gu liked is exactly the one you bought."
An Lianhe's expression suddenly changed: "Did you buy it?"
Wang Yuanling feigned confusion and looked at SALE for confirmation: "What? So I stole my aunt's favorite thing?"
Of course, SALE didn't dare to respond and just said, "This is all our problem."
Wang Yuanling's eyes were filled with apology. "I'm sorry, Auntie. I really didn't know about this beforehand. I just came here a few days ago and fell in love with this set just like you did, so I bought it."
An Lianhe didn't expect that the world would be so small.
The one who bought the jewelry she liked would be Wang Yuanling.
She was surprised in her heart, but she put on a kind smile and said, "Child, this is not your problem. You don't need to apologize to your aunt."
Wang Yuanling's eyes were filled with guilt. "No, this is my fault, Auntie. A gentleman doesn't take away what others like. You were the one who saw the jewelry first. You're still in my car. I'll get it for you."
An Lianhe's heart moved, but she still waved her hand and declined: "No need! You buy it first, then it belongs to you."
Wang Yuanling insisted: "No, you ordered it first, so it belongs to you. Aunt, please don't be polite with me, otherwise I will really feel bad. Please wait here for a moment, I will go get it."
Seeing that she was determined, An Lianhe felt hesitant.
She really liked that set of jewelry.
They were originally intended to be given to the Liu family as gifts to build closer ties.
Thinking of this, she glanced at Wang Yuanling and an idea popped up in her heart: "Son, why not do this? Auntie is leaving too, so I might as well go to the parking lot with you to save you the trouble of running up and down!"
