Sure enough, after Gu Mingjing returned to the office and just poured a cup of hot water to make tea, the phone on the desk rang.
Ding-a-ling, ding-a-ling.
Gu Mingjing knew who the caller was without having to guess.
"This old man, I've never seen him so anxious before. He is too impatient." Gu Mingjing muttered to himself.
Knowing the purpose of Gu Zhan's call, Gu Mingjing took out the tea leaves calmly and put them into the cup slowly. Only after he had done everything did he answer the phone.
As soon as the call was connected, Gu Zhan's loud voice came to my ears, "You kid, why are you answering the phone now?"
Gu Mingjing rubbed his ears and moved the microphone slightly away from himself before speaking: "My dear father, I just got back. As soon as I heard the phone ring, I answered it without stopping. Do you still think I'm slow? Ah, I'm sad."
After saying that, Gu Mingjing still pretended to cover his chest, not thinking that Gu Zhan was not here and there was no one else around. Who was he pretending for?
Gu Zhan remained calm while listening to his son's antics. After all, his son had not been serious for more than 20 years. He would be surprised if he became serious one day.
"Really? Is it such a coincidence? Why wouldn't I believe it?" Gu Zhan was very clear about his son's character.
Gu Mingjing continued to lie with his eyes open, "Yes, it's such a coincidence. Look, I just came back when you called me. Doesn't this show that there is a tacit understanding between us father and son?"
Hearing his son's words, Gu Zhan shuddered unconsciously. This kid's ability to disgust people has improved significantly in recent times.
Since he had never gained the upper hand in a verbal fight, Gu Zhan was too lazy to continue the verbal battle and started to ask about the business. "Okay, stop playing tricks, kid. Did you get your leave?"
What Gu Zhan is most concerned about now is the blind date between Jianshu and Gu Mingjing. After all, this is related to whether his long-cherished wish can come true.
"Is there anything I can't accomplish?" Gu Mingjing said proudly.
Gu Zhan knew that the matter was settled, and he felt relieved. Although it was definitely okay for Gu Mingjing to take leave for his lifelong event, he was also worried about some emergencies. Now that he had taken leave, it was good.
If anything unexpected happens at this last moment, he will be so angry that he will vomit blood.
So Gu Zhan didn't pay attention to Gu Mingjing's tone and asked directly, "How long have you been asking for it?"
"Half a month." Gu Mingjing replied.
Half a month? Not bad. A week's travel back and forth, so there's still a week left, so I can spend more time with Shushu.
In fact, a month would be best, as it would help deepen their relationship, but Gu Zhan knew in his heart that half a month was the limit for such a sudden leave.
"You must behave well when you go there, okay? Clean up your face before the meeting, don't go there looking sloppy, because your face is the only thing that looks good." Gu Zhan complained.
Of course, Gu Zhan didn’t really think that his son only had a face. He was also very proud of his excellence. It was just that such mutual insults were the norm in their conversations.
It's just that, with Gu Mingjing's personality and that big mouth, he would be extremely confident even if no one praised him. But if he was praised, his tail would really be raised to the sky.
Gu Mingjing wasn't the least bit upset, instead asking, "I'm such an outstanding son, how can I only have a pretty face? You must be jealous of my good looks when you say that. Oh, I smell a hint of jealousy."
"I'm jealous of you?" Gu Zhan was provoked by Gu Mingjing.
"That's right. After all, there are people with abilities as good as mine, but there are no people with looks as outstanding as mine. It's normal to be envied for being good-looking. I've long been used to it.
But old man, you should be broad-minded. You can't envy someone for their looks. You can only blame my grandma for not giving birth to you so pretty." Gu Mingjing continued to show off his powerful mouth cannon skills.
He is 100% confident about his appearance.
"You are my son. If I were not good-looking, how could you be so good-looking?" Gu Zhan was so stimulated by Gu Mingjing that he forgot the reason for the call and just wanted to have something clear with him.
"I was clearly born by my mother, and I clearly look like my mother. Besides, if you hadn't held me back, maybe I would have grown up even better." Gu Mingjing said regretfully.
Of course, this is not the case. Although Gu Zhan and his wife are not as good-looking as Gu Mingjing, they are also outstanding. It can be said that Gu Mingjing inherited the advantages of both parties, and after genetic optimization, he has his current appearance.
"I'm really sorry that my appearance lets you down." Gu Zhan said sarcastically.
If anyone else heard this, they would probably be stunned. Who would have thought that Chief Gu had this side to him?
Gu Mingjing said reluctantly: "If it's not perfect, then it's not perfect. Who told you to be my father?"
After saying this, he sighed.
Hearing his reluctant tone, Gu Zhan couldn't hold back his anger any longer and couldn't help but roar, "You little bastard, you still know I'm your dad? Someone who doesn't know would think you're my dad. Is there anyone who despises your father like you? Huh?
It’s better to have a piece of barbecued pork than a son. At least barbecued pork is edible, but you only make me angry. It’s better to have a daughter. Other people’s daughters are like warm little cotton-padded jackets in winter, but you? You are like that leather jacket, too cold in winter and too hot in summer. You are useless.”
Listening to the roar coming from the microphone, I was once again glad that he held the microphone far away, otherwise his ears would have been deafened.
But his old man's tolerance has decreased. In the past, he could last more than ten rounds when chatting with him before starting to scold him. This time, it's only been a few rounds. How come he is so vulnerable?
Gu Mingjing thought about it and felt that it was because he had been on a mission during this period and had not communicated with the old man. It seemed that he had to keep in touch with the old man in the future, otherwise, one day he might open his mouth and the old man would be angry to death.
For the sake of the old man's health, he should take some time to exercise him. Gu Mingjing made a decision silently.
At this time, Gu Zhan didn't know that he was about to face a period of great difficulties and chaos, and he was still talking incessantly.
Gu Mingjing put the microphone on the table, picked up the cup beside him, and sipped tea leisurely.
Because of the air leakage in the phone now, Gu Mingjing could hear his father's words clearly even from a distance.
After drinking tea and reading the newspaper, Gu Mingjing calculated that the time was almost up before he picked up the microphone again.
At this time, Gu Zhan on the other side also remembered the reason why he called today. After venting for a while, he brought the topic back.
