Zhao Zhengyuan was helping with the cooking and serving the dishes, so he didn't get to eat until a little later.
He saw it too, and got up anxiously, asking in a low voice, "Dad, why are you crying?"
Zhao Dajiang had sobered up considerably and, not wanting to become a laughingstock, quickly denied it with a smile, "No, I just got something in my eye. I was thinking of having your brother Gu and the others take a look."
Since Zhao Dajiang had said so, Gu Wei naturally had to cooperate, "It's probably dust or small flying insects that got in."
Gu Jianguo chimed in, "Yes, just blow on it and it'll be fine."
Zhao Zhengyuan didn't believe him. He subconsciously clenched the half-eaten steamed bun in his hand and said in a low voice, "Dad, I know you're upset. But there's nothing we can do now. Shulan has gone back to work after her maternity leave, so Nannan can only be looked after by my mother-in-law. You can come to visit the baby whenever you miss her, just don't bring my mom with you, otherwise it'll be..."
Zhao Dajiang glanced at his wife standing next to his mother-in-law, whose face was very unpleasant, and quickly interrupted him, "I know, I understand, you go and eat your meal!"
Zhao Zhengyuan ignored him and pulled the man aside to talk.
Gu Jianguo looked away and drank the last drop of wine in his glass: "I'll go with you two."
The two exchanged a glance, both understanding that if they stayed any longer, things could escalate into a conflict, and neither side would be willing to take the other's side.
"Okay, otherwise you'll have to walk back."
Gu Wei had just finished speaking.
Jin Hongfei walked over carrying four aluminum lunch boxes and a bag of steamed buns in a net bag.
"Brother Gu, Xiao Nai and Lin Yu didn't come to the banquet. Could you take some of it back with you? These were served separately by my mom, and they're still warm."
Gu Wei didn't stand on ceremony and took it, saying, "Okay, I'll take it."
When Gu Wei and his family saw that they were leaving, their relatives and friends also went to the gate to see them off.
Gu Wei rode his motorcycle home, carrying Gu Hongjie and Gu Jianguo.
The seats are limited in size, so it can feel a bit cramped.
Gu Hongjie, who was in the middle, laughed all the way.
This made Gu Wei and Gu Jianguo feel much better, as they had been somewhat affected by the Zhao family's affairs.
Upon arriving at the store, Gu Jianguo and Gu Hongjie got out of the car one after the other.
The former went into the store to deliver lunchboxes, while the latter went to open the door.
Gu Wei rode his motorcycle directly into the courtyard.
Today is Sunday, and Gu Hongjie has a day off.
Next, Gu Wei played with him and watched TV with him until very late.
The next day, he took Gu Hongjie to school again before finding an opportunity to return to the modern world.
A few days ago in the provincial capital, Gu Wei had more free time to date and be affectionate with Zhou Wenyi.
Since returning to the Forestry Bureau recently, I've had many people to meet and many things to do, so I've neglected my girlfriend a bit.
Qingcheng is now in the sweltering heat of summer.
After taking a quick shower, Gu Wei went to the dressing room to choose a comfortable and refreshing summer outfit before heading to the private restaurant.
In the large office, Zhou Wenyi was replying to messages on her phone.
She looked up as if sensing something and saw her handsome boyfriend standing at the door with one hand in his pocket. She immediately smiled happily and went to greet him.
"You've arrived."
Gu Wei deliberately teased her in a serious tone, "You're so happy that I'm here?"
Zhou Wenyi couldn't help but glare at him, a look that was both reproachful and delighted.
Those expressive eyes seemed to be telling a thousand words.
Gu Wei instantly lost his composure, not caring that there were other people around, and put his arm around Zhou Wenyi's shoulder, leading her into the office next door.
As soon as the door closed, Zhou Wenyi abandoned her shyness and boldly expressed her abundant emotions, starting with Gu Wei's chin.
His girlfriend's enthusiasm surprised Gu Wei, who was pinned against the door, but he knew it would be foolish not to take advantage of the opportunity, so he immediately took the initiative.
After the two took their relationship a step further, apart from their first time in a hotel, they spent most of their time at Gu Wei and Zhou Wenyi's home.
The office... just thinking about it is exciting.
Unfortunately, Zhou Wenyi wasn't quite that open-minded. She grabbed Gu Wei's long, slender hand at the right moment, saying, "Don't... it would be so embarrassing if someone heard that."
"Okay." Although Gu Wei was a little regretful, he respected his girlfriend's wishes. Besides, the office wasn't very soundproof, so it wasn't really suitable for doing bad things.
The two calmed their disordered breathing.
Zhou Wenyi's face was still slightly flushed, her hair was messy, and the lipstick on her rosy lips had been smudged. In Gu Wei's eyes, she had a kind of lazy and sexy beauty.
Gu Wei had recently become a bit fairer, with reddened ear tips and neck. His broad shoulders and strong arms exuded a vibrant sense of power, making Zhou Wenyi, who had already tasted certain pleasures, feel her heart race and unable to look away.
At that moment, two WeChat message notification sounds rang out in succession.
It broke the ambiguous and tense atmosphere in the office.
Zhou Wenyi quickly took out her phone.
Upon seeing the content, he frowned slightly.
Gu Wei asked with concern, "What's wrong?"
Zhou Wenyi said with a hint of helplessness, "A close friend of mine has been pestering me these past few days, wanting me to take you to meet her."
Gu Wei didn't really want to meet strange girls, but if that person was a very good friend of Zhou Wenyi, it wouldn't be a bad idea.
"So what do you mean?"
"I don't want to," Zhou Wenyi said, then quickly explained, "Don't misunderstand, it's not that I don't approve of you. You've even met my parents and brother a few times. It's mainly because of that little video. This friend saw it and kept praising me, saying how handsome and stylish you are. Besides, she's not my best friend. Xiao Ran has never mentioned her..."
