Chapter 389 People from the Zhao Family Arrive
Gu Qinglang had learned a lot about computers, and now that he was middle-aged, his ambition suddenly grew. He wanted to start a computer company. Xiao Shiyi was also about to graduate, and Li Li had also made great progress in this area. In addition, there was the game company that A Yin was running in Beijing. He felt that his computer Internet of Things company should be able to succeed!
After the party, he would discuss it with his father and brother Chu. If it worked out, he would get started!
After speaking with Mayor Liu, Zhou Wansheng led Gu Yin and the others to the Chief Executive of Hong Kong and Old Master Ai.
The Chief Executive smiled and raised his glass: "Congratulations Mr. Zhou on finding his son!"
Zhou Wansheng clinked glasses with the other party: "Thank you, Chief Executive, for taking time out of your busy schedule to come!"
The Chief Executive is indeed very busy, but he had no choice but to attend the Zhou family's banquet.
"Our port city has a pretty good environment. Mr. Gu can take a look around when he gets back. I have a meeting to attend to later, so please excuse me!" He managed to squeeze in this little bit of time only after postponing his meeting by an hour!
Gu Qinglang exchanged a few polite words with him and then told him to go ahead and get busy.
After saying goodbye to Zhou Wansheng, the Chief Executive hurriedly left with a few people.
Old Mr. Ai looked at Gu Qinglang and the others, then at Zhou Wansheng, and asked in confusion, "Now that they're back, why not change their names?" Hong Kong places great importance on these things, so when Zhou Wansheng introduced Gu Qinglang and the others on stage, the people below were puzzled, but no one dared to ask. They just muttered to themselves, wondering if the Zhou family didn't value their found son and his family? Or did they think they were not presentable and had no intention of training them?
Zhou Wansheng raised his eyebrows: "We are already very grateful to have the children found. We don't ask for anything else, we just hope they are safe and sound!"
They could never repay the kindness of the Gu family in their lifetime, so how could they have the face to ask their son's family to change their surname? What he said was indeed what they felt in their hearts. They had already lived more than half their lives, so what else was there to be upset about? Peace was the most important thing!
Gu Yin asked in confusion, "Dad, didn't you tell Grandpa and Grandma about me and A-Le changing our surnames?"
Gu Qinglang blinked: "I forgot!" He's been busy with all sorts of things since arriving in Hong Kong, and he was so tired at night that he fell asleep immediately. He couldn't remember about changing his surname at all!
Zhou Wansheng was stunned when he heard Gu Yin's words: "Change your surname? What surname?" As he spoke, he became nervous. Could it be what he was thinking?
Mr. Ai also looked at Gu Yin in surprise.
Gu Qinglang touched his nose, feeling guilty, and said, "The night before we came to Hong Kong, the old lady and the old man decided to have A-Le and A-Yin change their surnames back to Zhou. They knew that people in Hong Kong value this and care a lot about having offspring. So, after A-Yin and A-Le agreed, they added 'Zhou' to their original names. On the morning we arrived in Hong Kong, they went to the police station to change it. I was going to tell you and Mother about this when we arrived in Hong Kong, but I got busy and forgot."
Seeing Zhou Wansheng's eyes welling up with tears, he said apologetically again, "I won't change my name. After all, I've used it for half my life, and many things are tied to this name, so I'm sorry. My parents said that A-Le and A-Le are studying here and will develop their careers here in the future. When he grows up, he can become the head of his own household, and then you and my mother can be on the same household registration as him. As for A-Yin, all her information will be transferred to Beijing later, and she also has a company under her name, so it can't be transferred here."
Zhou Wansheng patted Gu Qinglang's shoulder hard, choking back tears, and said, "This is already very good! Really! This is really very good! Brother Gu and Sister-in-law are of such noble character! I don't know how to thank them enough!"
He truly never dared to hope that his son or two children would change their surname to Zhou! But he never expected that Gu Jianguo and his wife would be so generous! They directly allowed Gu Le and Gu Yin to change their surnames!
Gu Le hugged her grandfather's arm and said with a smile, "We are family, Grandpa, you don't need to be so polite! No matter what our surnames are, my sister and I will always be children of the Gu and Zhou families!"
Grandpa Ai smiled and said, "Ah Le is right, you're all family, no need to be so polite!"
Zhou Wansheng rubbed the corner of his eye and nodded vigorously: "That's right, we're all family! We'll always be family!"
On the other side of the party, Wang Yanzhi was chatting with the Gu family when Uncle Zhou walked up to her and whispered, "Madam, the Zhao family's matriarch has brought those two children. Should we send them away?"
Wang Yanzhi's expression remained unchanged: "You've entered the hall?"
Uncle Zhou nodded: "The Zhao family had an invitation. The people at the door only recognize invitation cards, not people, so they've already come in."
Although the venue belonged to the Zhou family, the setup and catering for the reception were handled by a specialized company. Even the doormen were from that company, recognizing only the cards, not the people. The other party hadn't done anything wrong. It was just that the Zhao family was incredibly inconsiderate. What was the point of bringing those two fakes to such an important occasion? Were they trying to make their son's family look bad?! What bad luck!
Wang Yanzhi said in a low voice, "Have someone follow them. If they cause trouble, take them away. If they don't cause trouble, just let them be, treat them like strangers."
Uncle Zhou nodded: "Okay." After saying that, he left and walked away.
As Zhao Tengfei and Zhao Feifei watched Gu Yin being led around by the old man to meet people, and seeing how those people fawned over them, the two of them felt a pang of jealousy!
