After Yan Lin came out, Zou Xiaozhou stepped forward and asked, "Brother Yan, why didn't you let me speak? What if someone in the Gu family knows the inside story?"
"Also, Jiang Pengyue has met your sister-in-law, she—"
"There's something wrong with her."
Zou Xiaozhou was stunned, and suddenly looked up at Yan Lin.
"The calmer she is, the more likely Manzhi's disappearance is related to her. Send two people to keep an eye on her secretly, but don't alert her," Yan Lin said coldly.
"yes."
Zou Xiaozhou's eyes lit up, and he quickly told the two scouts to take off their uniforms and lie in ambush.
"Woof woof woof" —
Big Yellow took off running like a madman.
Ling Junye's two wolfhounds also rushed over, acting as his left and right protectors without a care in the world.
"Hey, Big Yellow, where are you going?" Zou Xiaozhou tried to pull the rope.
But rhubarb moves as fast as lightning.
It wasn't a well-trained military dog. Except when it was under Xu Manzhi's care, it was as obedient as a cat. Otherwise, it had two faces. When it saw anyone other than its owner, it would bare its teeth and look ferocious.
"Keep up," Yan Lin said calmly.
Zou Xiaozhou had no choice but to run as fast as he could.
Thus, a bizarre scene appeared on the streets of Haicheng: a large yellow dog in front, two black wolfhounds in the middle, and a scout following behind...
The dog wandered through the streets and alleys, gradually moving away from the city center.
Yan Lin's car also drove away.
Family-oriented.
Jiang Pengyue reached out and touched the pigeon's little head.
She unfolded a piece of paper.
A string of numbers came into view, so she climbed onto the bookshelf, pulled out a thread-bound dictionary, carefully flipped through it, and finally summarized it into a sentence: Yan Lin left the city.
That would be wonderful.
Yan Lin stayed far away and spent the next three days peacefully. She took Xu Manzhi to marry Zhou Xiangqun. Once they entered the bridal chamber, Xu Manzhi would have to accept reality.
She struck a match and burned the note.
At this moment, Gu Jiajia, dressed in red, walked in from outside. Her long, wavy hair was very eye-catching, and her full, round face made her look very elegant.
"Is there something you need?" Jiang Pengyue asked.
Gu Jiajia's eyes flashed with disdain, but remembering her colleague's plea, she suppressed her disgust and stepped forward gracefully, saying, "Yueyue, after you marry Comrade Zhou, could you introduce me to his unmarried brothers and sisters?"
Zhou Xiangqun is out of reach.
But he's a good comrade, and his colleagues in the regiment remember him.
Jiang Pengyue knew that Gu Jiajia wouldn't come to the house without a reason, and she wouldn't even step into the room without some good toppings...
“Xiang Qun has a single older brother who came to my house to propose marriage last time. He’s good-looking and a full-time employee in a Beijing company. His future is limitless,” Jiang Pengyue said.
She did everything she could to win over the Gu family.
The deeper the entanglement, the stronger the bond of interests, the more likely the Gu family can become her second maternal home.
"Really?"
Gu Jiajia's eyes lit up, and she rushed into the house, acting as warmly as a real older sister.
“Yes, I have seen it.” Jiang Pengyue nodded.
"Then, what do you think of my looks? Am I good enough for Brother Zhou?" Gu Jiajia had acted in two movies and was considered a beauty in the performing arts troupe.
It's a pity he came from such a humble background.
Given the Zhou family's prominent status, choosing Jiang Pengyue is already an extremely rare event.
"You're a good match. As long as I give my approval, Xiang Qun is willing to act as a go-between for you." Jiang Pengyue sneered inwardly, but showed no sign of it on her face. She continued to shower Gu Jiajia with sweet words, leaving her dizzy and confused.
"That's great, Yueyue. Of course I hope you succeed. After all, we grew up together, and our relationship is different from others. Don't you think so?" Gu Jiajia said with a smile.
The three sons of the Jiang family regarded Jiang Pengyue as their very eyeball.
From childhood to adulthood, she was bullied a lot by Jiang's three older brothers. Whenever Jiang Pengyue cried, she would be the one to be beaten three times in a row, so she hated Jiang Pengyue to the core.
Upon learning that Jiang Pengyue was an adopted daughter of the Jiang family, she gloated for a long time.
Unexpectedly, my adopted daughter is really tough.
The once-powerful Jiang family collapsed overnight, and Jiang Pengyue unexpectedly rose to prominence, becoming a phoenix.
Why is she so lucky?
God is so unfair.
"Jiajia, can you do me a favor? On my wedding day, I'll arrange for you to sit next to Brother Xiangqun, okay?" Jiang Pengyue said.
"OK."
Gu Jiajia nodded hurriedly.
If she marries Zhou Xiangqun's older brother, they might become sisters-in-law.
"Could you go to the Guangshui production team outside the city? Xiang Qun is there to inspect the work with the leaders. This is a sachet I made for him; could you give it to him for me? I'm pregnant now and can't travel by train. Otherwise, I'll go by myself..."
As Jiang Pengyue spoke, she took out a pure cotton long dress from the cabinet.
"This dress is brand new. You'll look beautiful in it. It's just a small token of my appreciation." She handed the dress to Gu Jiajia.
Gu Jiajia was stunned.
She works in a performing arts troupe and has worn nice clothes before, but a long dress like this, with its subtle wave pattern, is just too beautiful.
"Oh, the leaders Zhou Xiangqun is entertaining include several unmarried, single officials from Beijing. They all have quite good backgrounds. You—"
"I'll deliver it for you."
Gu Jiajia took the dress and sachet, rushed out the door, hurriedly went back inside to change the dress, and also gathered one side of her curly hair and clipped it with a red hair clip.
She turned around in front of the full-length mirror.
Wow.
It's so beautiful.
She was overjoyed, yet shyly fantasizing about meeting a group of single, attractive young people, a feeling of indescribable longing welling up inside her.
She draped the sachet over her wrist and left the house.
