Chapter 569: A deeper understanding of each other
Shen Ci also looked directly at Gao Zhan. His eyes were deep and profound, and when combined with his face, the attraction was doubled.
At this moment, Shen Ci felt an extra touch of gentle emotion in his eyes.
She pulled the corners of her mouth and smiled suddenly: "You are quite into the role. The look in your eyes just now made me think that you seem to like me!"
Gao Zhan blinked and said truthfully, "I just suddenly realized that you are a very special person, which made me want to get to know you better."
He just said it bluntly.
Shen Ci’s expression was slightly startled: “Is it very special?”
Gao Zhan nodded without hesitation. "Well, I never thought you would be this kind of person. You have a strong personality and are very charming. This is not just limited to your beauty, but it makes you look even more beautiful."
This may sound a bit confusing at first, but if you listen carefully to the meaning, you will know how accurate Gao Zhan's expression is.
"I didn't expect you to be so good at complimenting people. I thought you were terrible at dealing with girls."
"It's because the feelings you give me are so clear and strong that I can give you accurate feedback."
His tone was very serious from beginning to end. You wouldn't think he was being glib. Instead, because of his whole demeanor, you would feel that he was really observing you carefully and discovering deeper things about you.
A smile appeared in Chen Ci's eyes: "It seems that we have a deeper understanding of each other."
"Yes." Gao Zhan nodded with a smile, then raised his chin towards the front of the alley: "My dad's car is here."
Chen Ci turned around and looked over. The people in the car seemed to have seen them as well. The car, which was originally swaying slowly in the alley, obviously sped up a little.
Only when the car stopped did the two of them take a few steps forward.
An old man in the back seat opened the door and got out of the car first. With just one glance, Shen Ci could tell that this man was Gao Zhan's grandfather because he looked very similar to his great-grandfather.
Gao Zhan's grandfather was an oncologist. After retiring two years ago, he was rehired by the Medical University as a professor.
"grandfather."
Grandpa's eyes were shining when he looked at Shen Ci: "Gao Zhan, girlfriend?"
"Hello grandpa, my name is Shen Ci." Shen Ci took the initiative to speak.
The two of them kept holding hands, and their identities were very obvious.
At this time, several more people got out of the car. It was not difficult to tell that the man and woman were Gao Zhan's father and his current wife. There was also a boy in his early twenties behind them, who should be Gao Zhan's half-brother.
Gao Zhan didn't tell her much about his "stepmother and younger brother", and his father was the vice president of a high-end private hospital.
The relationship between father and son is pretty good, mainly due to Gao Zhan's personality. He never cares about gains and losses in other aspects, which allows this somewhat complicated family to maintain relative peace and balance.
"Dad, Aunt Bai."
"Hello, uncle and aunt."
Gao's father was dressed in a suit and had an elegant temperament. In the past two years, he was the one who was most anxious to introduce a girl to his son. His son always said that he already had a girlfriend, and now that he finally met her, he was naturally happy.
"Hello." Father Gao said with a smile, then turned to Gao Zhan and asked, "Have you taken your girlfriend to see Great Grandpa?"
"Yes."
Grandpa Gao Zhan said happily, "The old man must be very happy, right? This great-grandson of his family would most like to see you bring a girl back to meet him."
"Yes, Great Grandpa likes Ah Ci very much and even gave her a red envelope when they met."
Father Gao finally reacted after hearing this and quickly looked at his wife beside him.
Seeing this, Aunt Bai took out a red envelope from her bag and said with a smile, "Your dad knew you were going to bring your girlfriend back today, so he specially prepared a red envelope in advance."
After the words fell, he handed the red envelope to Shen Ci: “Come here, child, this is a gift from uncle and aunt, don’t be embarrassed.”
Chen Ci felt very embarrassed, even though she was not short of money.
But he had already accepted the red envelope from his great-grandfather, so it was not easy to refuse the red envelope from Gao Zhan's father, so he had to accept it.
"Thank you, uncle and aunt."
Aunt Bai said softly, "She's so beautiful. Where are you from?"
"I'm from Shenzhen and Hong Kong. I was admitted to Longcheng University of Science and Technology. Later, my family also came here." Shen Ci answered truthfully.
Aunt Bai understood what she said: "The southern coastal capital? No wonder she is so beautiful."
"Thank you for the compliment, Auntie."
"Don't ask these questions for now. It's almost time. Let's go in and celebrate the old man's birthday." Grandpa Gao Zhan said as he walked up the stairs step by step and went inside.
As Father Gao walked forward, he instructed Gao Zhan: "Since you've brought her back, treat her well. The girl looks young, so she should still be in college, right?"
"You have a tough personality, so be patient with others. Girls need to be coaxed, you know?"
"Bring you home for dinner alone some other day and have your aunt cook for you."
Aunt Bai smiled and nodded when she heard this: "Yes, bring it back and we will personally entertain you."
Gao Zhan kept nodding, while Shen Ci listened from the side, but he always felt that there was a cold light coming from behind them.
She glanced sideways slightly and met the boy's eyes.
Cold and emotionless.
Gao Qi seemed to have not expected Shen Ci to suddenly look over, and subconsciously lowered his eyes.
Shen Ci didn't take it too seriously and followed Gao Zhan back to his seat at the banquet.
When he came back, the table was already full of people, all of whom were younger people of the same generation as Gao Zhan.
Gao Zhan is the eldest grandson, that is, the oldest brother in this generation. When his brother brought his girlfriend back, his younger brothers and sisters were naturally curious. When they saw Shen Ci for the first time, their expressions were exactly the same as Gao Min's.
It's stunning with surprise.
But his younger brothers and sisters seemed a little afraid to be too gossipy in front of Gao Zhan, only his younger sister Gao Min was the most active.
"Beautiful, isn't it?"
"I didn't lie to you, did I?"
"Isn't she more beautiful than a star?"
Gao Min was more excited than anyone else, like Chen Ci's spokesperson, and she wanted to press her head to recommend her brother's beautiful girlfriend to everyone on the spot.
At this table, only Liang Shishi had a bad expression.
But this was obviously not the time when her face looked the ugliest. When Gao Qi came to the table after paying her respects to her great-grandfather and sat down in the empty seat next to Liang Shishi, the expression on her face became visibly uglier.
And Gao Qi's first words after he sat down were exactly the same as the first words Liang Shishi said to Gao Zhan after she sat down.
"Sister Shishi, long time no see."
Liang Shishi had a strange look on her face, but she still responded due to the occasion, but it was just a soft "hmm" through her nose.
The atmosphere suddenly became weird, even more turbulent than when Shen Ci and Liang Shishi were secretly competing with each other just now.
At this moment, Shen Ci recalled belatedly that Gao Zhan, his half-brother, seemed to have never called Gao Zhan "brother" since he appeared.
Good night, get up at 8 o'clock tomorrow and set off for Nalati.
