Movies and TV: The heroine of the blind date

What followed was all conversation between teacher and student. Guan Peng acted as a yes-talker and only responded when Zhong Xiaoai asked him questions.

"Tongwei, how many people have confirmed that they will come tomorrow?"

"Most of the people I invited have agreed to come, except..."

"Except who?"

"Except for Liang Ping, he hasn't given me any definite news yet."

After going around in circles, Hou Liangping was mentioned again.

"What are you looking at me for?"

Zhong Xiaoai is still a little sensitive, especially when Guan Peng is present.

"Nothing, nothing, I just feel a little sorry for him. My Fangfang even asked me about him when she called me yesterday."

Wu Huifen is a very good person and a good talker. In the end, Gao Yuliang lost the watermelon but gained sesame seeds.

"Really? Is Fangfang doing well in the United States? Did she say when she will be back?"

Zhong Xiaoai went down this step, and by the way, asked about the situation of her defeated generals.

"She said she would be back on New Year's Day. Her studies there are almost finished. She is now struggling with whether to continue staying in the United States or return to China for development."

A good horse never turns back, and Gao Fangfang is obviously not a good horse; after knowing Hou Liangping's situation, she plans to return to China to renew their old relationship.

“The United States is good, but its development has reached a bottleneck, and it is very xenophobic. Especially for high-end scientific research, if you don’t become a naturalized citizen, you won’t have a chance to get started. And even if you become a naturalized citizen, they will give priority to white people under the same conditions.”

Regarding the two choices of staying in the United States or returning to China, Guan Peng did not express any opinion, but instead stated a fact to express his own views.

"Mr. Guan is a big businessman after all, so he has a more thorough understanding of foreign issues than we do."

Unlike Gao Yuliang and Wu Huifen who only knew that Zhong Xiaoai married a young man of equal social status, Qi Tongwei knew too well the power behind this mediocre young man in the house. Even Mr. Zhao wanted to curry favor with him.

"Brother Qi, you are too kind. I am just a simple businessman, and what I said are the unspoken rules that everyone knows."

After all, he was Director Qi, who was proficient in weeding in the fields, raising fish and birds, and crying at the graves of friends. Guan Peng felt very comfortable being licked by him.

"Xiao Guan is a businessman. I thought you worked in the procuratorate like Xiao Ai?"

Gao Yuliang didn't know much about Guan Peng's situation, but he knew Qi Tongwei. Anyone who could be praised by his disciple must be no ordinary person.

"My family has suggested it, but life in the procuratorate is too hard, and I am a person who is not bound by rules, so I really can't live that kind of life."

"Bitter?"

It was the first time that Gao Yuliang heard someone associate hardship with the Procuratorate. Was he out of date, or was the guy in front of him not good at Chinese?

"Teacher, did you notice the headline of the financial section of Luzhou Daily a few days ago? Wujiang Fund acquired 5% of Tianyin Group's shares. Wujiang Fund is Mr. Guan's industry."

Qi Tongwei didn't know about this at first, but he couldn't help but hang around Zhao Ruilong every few days.

"Tianyin Group, the Tianyin Group in Hong Kong?"

Gao Yuliang, who remained calm in the face of adversity, was also moved.

"It's just a small deal. I met Mr. Fang in Hong Kong a few days ago. He wanted to cash out part of his shares. I had some spare funds, so I took it."

Guan Peng's pretense was just average, at least that's how it looked in the eyes of Zhong Xiaoai, who was used to seeing him pretending. But everyone else in the room, except Qi Tongwei, was also impressed by his pretense.

Gao Yuliang finally understood why Guan Peng said that life in the procuratorate was hard;

At the same time, he also thought of Zhao Ruilong, who had used all sorts of means to get him to approve the Food City. They were both second-generation leaders, and compared to Guan Peng, Zhao Ruilong was like a beggar.

"Xiao Guan, Hong Kong's economy is developed, but the mainland is not bad either. For example, our Luzhou's economy has been developing rapidly in the past two years. If you have extra money, you can come to Luzhou to invest."

Li Dakang has made great progress in the economic development of Lincheng. Gao Yuliang has been under great pressure during this period. When he suddenly saw a big customer, he set his sights on him.

"Teacher Gao, I invested in Hong Kong to avoid suspicion. As Xiao Ai's family member, I am under a lot of pressure."

You put the money right under Zhao Lichun's nose, do you think the contact with Zhao Ruilong is not deep enough?

"You've really thought so much about Xiao Ai. However, Xiao Ai works in Yanjing, and you come to Handong to invest. There's nothing to avoid."

Although Gao Yuliang is not as focused on GDP as Li Dakang, he also wants to make achievements during his tenure.

"Teacher, you'd better not have any ideas about him. I'm worried about him being alone in Handong."

Just at this moment, Zhong Xiaoai interrupted.

"Worried? What are you worried about?"

"I'm worried about his gang of bad friends, especially Zhao Ruilong, who tried to sow discord between me and Guan Peng last time."

When Zhong Xiaoai said this, she kept staring at Gao Yuliang and Wu Huifen, trying to see some clues from their eyes, but unfortunately there was none.

"How did he try to sow discord between you and Guan Peng?"

I know Zhao Ruilong is a mean person, but he shouldn't be to the extent of destroying the relationship between other couples for no reason.

"It was just a coincidence. He just said something extra. I guess he didn't mean anything like that."

Now is not the time to fall out with the Zhao family, Guan Peng explained on behalf of Zhao Ruilong.

"I didn't mean that. He took the photo of me and Hou Liangping meeting by chance and gave it to you. If he did, he should have set us up and charged us with some crime."

Xiao Ai, you guessed it right; Qi Tongwei and Guan Peng, who knew the inside story, wanted to give her a thumbs up and praise her.

Chapter 64 Chen Yanshi

Since Zhong Xiaoai had said so, Gao Yuliang naturally couldn't bring up the idea of ​​asking Guan Peng to invest in Handong. Next, everyone consciously brought the topic back to tomorrow's class reunion.

"Crescent Lake is a business card of our Luzhou. The scenery there will definitely not disappoint Mr. Guan."

The venue of the class reunion was the newly built Lakeside Food City, which was only in trial operation; and Qi Tongwei told Guan Peng about the beautiful scenery of Crescent Lake.

"Brother Qi, you said Crescent Lake is the business card of Luzhou. The person who can build a food city on the lake must have an extraordinary background."

Zhong Xiaoai didn't say that just because she knew that the Food City was Zhao Ruilong's business. It was purely out of the occupational disease of a prosecutor. But as soon as she said that, the originally lively scene instantly cooled down.

"Xiao Ai, this is an occupational disease of yours. Not every profitable business can have shady secrets. According to you, shouldn't I have a big boss backing me up?"

Knowing that criticizing the Food City was a knot in Gao Yuliang's heart, Guan Peng tried to smooth things over.

"You didn't?"

"Yes, that person is you."

Zhong Xiaoai also felt something was wrong and started to joke with Guan Peng. As the two of them played around, the awkwardness soon disappeared, but the atmosphere never returned to what it was before, and they chose to leave not long after.

"I always feel that everyone has changed after coming back this time."

Leaving Gao Yuliang's residence and walking on the busy street, Zhong Xiaoai sighed uncontrollably.

"How has it changed? Is it for the better or for the worse?"

Surprised at Zhong Xiaoai's sensitivity, Guan Peng pretended to be ignorant and asked.

"It's like everyone is wearing a mask and they don't want people to see what's hidden under the mask. It's very awkward. I don't like this change."

Before the class reunion even started, Zhong Xiaoai already felt a little regretful about attending.

When the wife is unhappy, the husband naturally has to take the trouble to comfort her. In this regard, Guan Peng is very competent.

"Why think so much? We are in Yanjing and they are in Handong. We don't see each other many times a year. If we don't get along, we can just have less contact.

By the way, you studied in Handong for four years, and apart from Gao Yuliang, there were no other elders you needed to visit."

Guan Peng's words were not without purpose.

"If you hadn't mentioned it, I would have forgotten. It's a rare trip back to Handong, and there are two elders I really need to visit. But they both speak quite directly, and they both think highly of Hou Liangping. Do you want to go with me?"

Now that Zhong Xiaoai said so, Guan Peng had no idea who she wanted to see.

"I have come with you to Handong, so there is no reason for me to let you go alone. Even if you are going to visit Hou Liangping's parents, I will go with you."

The moral bottom line has been getting lower and lower recently. Guan Peng brought up this topic because he wanted to receive ideological education from the old revolutionary. How could he not accompany Zhong Xiaoai?

"Now that you put it that way, it does seem like it. They are Hou Liangping's sons. You kidnapped their daughter-in-law, so you better be careful when you get there."

When you can talk about someone calmly, it proves that you have really let him go. Zhong Xiaoai is a bit like this now.

Chen Yanshi just retired in June this year. He feels a little uncomfortable to be so free all of a sudden after being so busy.

"Mr. Chen, are you busy?"

When Zhong Xiaoai brought Guan Peng into Chen's yard, he was weeding in the yard.

"Xiao Ai, why are you here, old lady? Xiao Ai is here to see us."

It can be seen that Chen Yanshi's love for Zhong Xiaoai comes from the heart.

"Xiao Ai is here, it's true; this is the first time you've come here since graduation. You finally haven't forgotten about us two old guys. This is..."

After hearing Chen Yanshi's call, Wang Fuzhen ran out with a smile, and did not forget to joke with Zhong Xiaoai when she saw her.

"Guan Peng, my love."

Like an introduction or also like a swearing in, Zhong Xiaoai expressed her attitude to the two elders as soon as they met.

"Hello Uncle Chen, Hello Aunt Wang"

Guan Peng also took the opportunity to step forward and greet him.

"Hello, hello, please come in and sit down. Old man, please put away your old things. They are so messy and look terrible."

Wang Fuzhen has an impetuous personality, but she is also a very thoughtful person; she understood Zhong Xiaoai's subtext, and was afraid that Chen Yanshi didn't understand, so she specifically reminded him.

"Why haven't I seen Chen Hai? I heard that he got married last year, and I didn't have time to come over to congratulate him."

"Haizi went to the hospital. His wife had just given birth and she hasn't recovered well yet."

Wang Fuzhen's words reminded Guan Peng that in the drama, Chen Hai's wife died young; it turned out that there was already a lead-in.

"Chen Hai has a child, so you are a grandmother now. Congratulations!"

Zhong Xiaoai is now eager to have a child, and she is sincerely happy for the Chen family.

"Xiao Ai, you are the most talkative person. What about you and Guan Peng? When do you plan to have a baby?"

Wang Fuzhen didn't consider herself an outsider and asked very personal questions. Seeing this, Guan Peng walked away tactfully and returned to the yard to help Chen Yanshi pack up his things.

"Your name is Guan Peng, right? How did you get to know Xiao Ai?"

Chen Yanshi did not stop Guan Peng from helping, but started chatting with him.

"My family introduced me to you, and we met through a blind date."

In front of the rock-solid magic mirror, Guan Peng didn't dare to act like a demon and pretended to be a good boy.

"It's a blind date. It's good to be well-matched and know each other well."

Mr. Chen, who dares to draw the sword when it comes to major principles, is reluctant to say much when it comes to love affairs.

"I know everything about her and her college classmates. It's all in the past and won't affect our future lives."

Knowing that Chen Yanshi didn't like to hide things, Guan Peng laid the matter out in the open.

Sure enough, as soon as Guan Peng said this, the old man looked at him with a much friendlier look.

"That's good if you think so."

After all, Chen Yanshi had just retired, and he was an old horse in the stable with great ambitions. He talked to Guan Peng about current affairs, mainly to test his teacher.

As for Guan Peng, he said he knew what he knew and said he didn’t know what he didn’t know, perfectly demonstrating what it means to know what you know and to admit what you don’t know.

"Xiao Guan, you're pretty good. Xiao Ai made the right choice by following you."

The first impression is very important. Guan Peng's frankness earned him a lot of points. Chen Yanshi patted him on the shoulder and praised him.

It was time for lunch, and Wang Fuzhen invited the two of them to have lunch, and Zhong Xiaoai did not refuse. The four of them ate five dishes and a soup at an 8-person table.

"Xiao Ai, are you going back to Handong for something this time?"

"Nothing much. I'm having a class reunion, and Teacher Gao called me personally. It's a bit hard to refuse."

Zhong Xiaoai did not hide anything and explained the purpose of her visit.

"I am becoming more and more confused about Gao Yuliang."

Chen Yanshi frowned and said.

"What happened to Mr. Gao that made you, Mr. Chen, have an opinion of him?"

Zhong Xiaoai took the opportunity to ask about Gao Yuliang.
