Chapter 80
After getting close to Xiaocheng, Zhong Yan went there several times later, and each time brought her some clothes and snacks.

Xiaocheng was very happy, every time Zhong Yan went, she would pester her to play together.

Zhong Yan was naturally also happy. When she went there a few times later, she took Xiaocheng to take photos and record videos together. In the video, Xiaocheng had a bright smile, and she looked like a lively and cute little girl.

Later, Zhong Yan edited the videos recorded several times together, and after hesitating for a while, he still packaged them and sent them to Gu Huaizhou.

Gu Huaizhou didn't understand what that meant, so he sent a question mark, and Zhong Yan explained a few words: "I don't know if it will be useful to let Xiaocheng's father see this, Xiaocheng is so innocent and lively, I miss her father That should be taken into consideration as well.”

Gu Huaizhou said hello, probably accepting her opinion.

As for Xiaocheng's house, Zhong Yan still went to visit from time to time. Although Xiaocheng's mother often went out to work, Xiaocheng's grandma stayed with Xiaocheng most of the time, and the little girl grew up with a smile on her face.

Not long after, Gu Huaizhou mentioned this matter at the dinner table, with a smile in the corner of his eyes, apparently in a good mood: "A while ago your method worked, Xiaocheng's father spoke up."

As soon as Zhong Yan regained his energy, he straightened up and asked, "How about now?"

Gu Huaizhou pursed his lips and smiled: "The money has been recovered, and the follow-up matters will be handed over to the judicial authorities. I have nothing to do here."

Hearing this bell, he couldn't help but sighed, Xiaocheng's father made a mistake, and the whole family was affected by him.

Gu Huaizhou seemed to see through Zhong Yan's sorrow, he smiled and said out loud, "For the sake of previous affection, I will ensure that his children have no worries about food and clothing, don't worry."

Zhong Yan felt a little better when he heard this, and sure enough, Gu Huaizhou was really not a bad person.

But this time, he ate intermittently. Gu Huaizhou seemed to be very busy, and he had to go out to answer the phone after a while.

Zhong Yan didn't mind, but Gu Huaizhou looked at her apologetically: "It's a little troublesome..."

Zhong Yan immediately waved his hand to urge him: "If you are busy, go first, I will leave by myself after I finish eating."

Gu Huaizhou turned off the phone with peace of mind, sat down again and said, "It's a troublesome matter that I don't want to deal with and doesn't need to deal with."

Zhong Yan didn't want to know about Gu Huaizhou's work, so she didn't ask.

But from that day on, Gu Huaizhou's cell phone rang frequently, and he usually hung up after glancing at it, which made Zhong Yan curious.

In the end, it was Gu Huaizhou who spoke first. He looked at Zhong Yan and said, "Zhong Yan, how about doing me a favor?"

Zhong Yan looked at him in surprise, and said, "If you ask me to help, I will definitely help, but what's the matter with you recently?"

Gu Huaizhou reached out and knocked on the table, frowning slightly: "There is indeed one thing that gives me a headache, but I want you to go to the banquet with me, how about it?"

Zhong Yan smiled in disbelief: "Really? Let me attend the banquet with you, is this helping you?"

Gu Huaizhou nodded without doubt: "Yes, that's it."

Zhong Yan scratched his head and hesitated for a moment, then agreed after a while: "Okay, just send me the time and place when the time comes."

On the day when the banquet really came, Gu Huaizhou went downstairs to pick her up at her house, Zhong Yan walked out with the hem of her skirt in her hand, got into the car and asked, "I won't embarrass you by doing this, right?"

Gu Huaizhou snorted softly: "How is it possible, it's very beautiful and just right."

Zhong Yan straightened his collar a little after hearing the words: "That's it, I don't know what kind of banquet it is, I don't know the place where I live, so you can't leave me alone when the time comes."

Gu Huaizhou responded with a smile: "Don't worry, I will watch you when the time comes."

Zhong Yan breathed a sigh of relief, she took a short rest in the car, and woke up sensitively when the car was parked.

After Gu Huaizhou parked the car, he took the initiative to reach out his hand to Zhong Yan, Zhong Yan hesitated for a moment, and reached out to hold him.

Under the guidance of the staff, the two took the elevator all the way upstairs, and when they walked into the resplendent hall, Zhong Yan was still a little surprised.

At this time, Gu Huaizhou patted her hand lightly, and comforted her with a little affection: "Don't worry, we'll leave after dinner."

Zhong Yan hummed softly, followed Gu Huaizhou into the hall slowly.

Thinking about it, Gu Huaizhou should be an important guest. When he entered, people kept looking at him, and Zhong Yan could hear whispers from the people around him: "He actually brought a female companion this time, I really can't believe it."

As Gu Huaizhou's female companion, Zhong Yan can only try his best to look calm.

But in fact, except when someone came to greet them, someone would talk to Zhong Yan, and the rest of the time Zhong Yan and Gu Huaizhou were standing at the table eating and drinking leisurely.

While Zhong Yan was still looking around, Gu Huaizhou had already raised his hand to look at his watch, and after looking at it for a while, he said, "It's almost there, let's go later..."

Before he finished speaking, someone suddenly came over and grabbed his shoulders, and said with a smile, "Long time no see, you're still so high-spirited!"

Gu Huaizhou just responded, and the other party pulled him affectionately: "Let's go, Lao Chen is over there, go over and talk to him..."

Gu Huaizhou looked back at Zhong Yan, and gestured to her to stay where he was, and he would be back soon.

Zhong Yan nodded to him, watching the man leave, she continued to taste the dessert in front of her.

At this time, two girls suddenly stood beside her, raised their eyebrows and began to mock: "Hey, who is this, what is your relationship with Gu Huaizhou?"

Zhong Yan raised his head and looked at the two glamorous ladies in front of him. She didn't know each other, so he asked, "Excuse me, who are you?"

One of the girls with stern eyebrows laughed, and snorted softly: "It doesn't matter who we are, the important thing is that you don't try to climb higher branches. Although I don't know where I met you, Gu Huaizhou is not something you can cling to. Soon to have a fiancée."

Zhong Yan looked at her in surprise, and seeing the girl's indignant expression, she suddenly understood something.

But Zhong Yan didn't make it clear, she smiled and said: "Let's talk about this kind of thing at a later time."

"You!" The girl didn't expect Zhong Yan to say that. In her eyes, Zhong Yan became a shameless and eloquent person, but Zhong Yan didn't care. As Gu Huaizhou's friend, of course she stood by Gu Huaizhou's side. side.

At this time, before the girl could make trouble, Gu Huaizhou's voice sounded from the side, he frowned slightly, and asked slowly: "What are you doing?"

Seeing him coming, the girl immediately raised her finger and asked domineeringly: "Gu Huaizhou, who is she and why is she still acting so arrogant in front of me!"

Gu Huaizhou chuckled, came over to hold Zhong Yan's hand, and said with a smile: "No matter who she is, it seems that she has nothing to do with Miss Li. Although you are very angry, it looks like you are making things difficult for her. I don't want my people to be treated like this by you, understand?"

Zhong Yan listened calmly and didn't say anything. At this time, Miss Li was already very angry. She gritted her teeth and glared at Zhong Yan, then angrily pulled the female companion around her and turned away.

Only then did Gu Huaizhou let go of Zhong Yan's hand, raised his hand and rubbed her head and said, "Did I scare you? I'm sorry, I said I wouldn't leave, but I didn't expect..."

Zhong Yan smiled and shook his head: "I'm fine, as long as I can help you, I'm helping you, right?"

Gu Huaizhou hummed: "It's almost there, let's go, we're going back."

Zhong Yan thoughtfully followed behind Gu Huaizhou, and after getting into the car, she poked her chin and asked, "I heard that you have a fiancée, is it related to this matter?"

Gu Huaizhou raised his head and glanced at her, Zhong Yan's eyes were playful, he was really laughing at him.

Gu Huaizhou sighed slightly, and admitted: "That's all nonsense, and I didn't agree."

Zhong Yan hummed for a long time, and asked again after a while: "So have you been troubled by this matter during this time?"

Gu Huaizhou nodded calmly: "Well, it's about the same, but it's not troublesome, I just find it troublesome."

It was only then that Zhong Yan realized that Gu Huaizhou had really never talked about love and romance. After more than 20 years, he still lived so without desire and desire.

Zhong Yan then made a joke: "Did you secretly have someone you like at some point, and now you are single just to marry her, isn't it?"

Gu Huaizhou looked at her helplessly, and sighed softly: "What are you thinking, I find that you are quite good at imagining."

Zhong Yan became interested, and asked with a smile: "Really?" Gu Huaizhou sighed and nodded: "Really, there is no such thing, I am not interested in marriage."

This is quite true. Zhong Yan looked at Gu Huaizhou like this kind of person. She believed it in her heart, but she still joked: "You don't want to get married at the end of the year. I will definitely laugh at you when the time comes. of."

Gu Huaizhou snorted lightly, and said disdainfully, "Don't even think about the impossible."

Zhong Yan just said that casually, she didn't think Gu Huaizhou would do such an outrageous thing.

However, Gu Huaizhou's troubles still exist, and he doesn't know why the other party has taken a fancy to him, so he keeps calling him.

Gu Huaizhou was suffering from a headache, but Zhong Yan watched it amusedly, and told him, "Why don't you go get married, I think the other party is quite satisfied with you."

Gu Huaizhou curled his lips into a smile: "Do you know who called?"

Zhong Yan was puzzled, she shook her head honestly, and asked again: "Isn't it the woman?" Gu Huaizhou stuck his chin and laughed softly: "Wrong, it's not her, it's her parents."

Zhong Yan frowned in surprise: "Have you always been the woman's parent?" Gu Huaizhou nodded casually: "Basically, I have business dealings with her family, and I probably think that I am the best choice, so I always So persistent."

Zhong Yan sighed, and shook his head seriously: "There is such a thing, what does the woman think?"

Gu Huaizhou shook his head slowly: "I don't know, but she has a docile personality, probably because of her family's arrangement. I've only met her a few times, and I haven't spoken much to her."

Zhong Yan sighed thoughtfully, and asked again: "Then wouldn't this be an arranged marriage? It's this kind of age, how can this kind of thing still happen?"

Gu Huaizhou laughed casually: "Money can make ghosts grind, these are common."

Zhong Yan lowered his head and took a sip of his drink, then raised his head curiously and asked, "Then what are you going to do?"

Gu Huaizhou's eyes drifted not far away, and then he said, "I don't mean that, so I'll refuse it first, and let it count as a day."

Zhong Yan didn't expect Gu Huaizhou to be so helpless, she curled up her mouth and smiled, but Gu Huaizhou saw her.

Gu Huaizhou also understood her intentions, he smiled and said: "I have no research on this aspect, so you don't have to laugh at me."

Zhong Yan burst into a smile, and said cheerfully, "It's quite interesting."

Gu Huaizhou didn't care about her teasing, he just reached out and rubbed her head helplessly, and said softly, "Don't think about it."

Ever since he knew that Gu Huaizhou was trying his best to refuse the marriage, Zhong Yan paid attention to his scandals from time to time.

However, Gu Huaizhou's attitude seemed to be very tough. He stubbornly pulled at the other party, and even under the pressure of his family, he did not agree to get married.

But soon, Zhong Yan had no time to pay attention to Gu Huaizhou, and her long-lost friend Zhong Ke appeared in front of her again.

Zhong Ke's expression improved a lot, but Zhong Yan still couldn't smile at him.Zhong Ke seemed to understand it himself. He glanced at Zhong Yan and didn't make a fuss. He just handed a small box in front of her.

Zhong Yan glanced at the box indifferently, and asked, "What is this?"

Zhong Ke smiled lightly, and said to her, "You can open it and have a look."

Zhong Yan was not interested. When she looked away, Zhong Ke opened the box by himself. Inside was a delicate necklace.

Zhong Yan glanced at it, but couldn't help looking at it again and again, not for anything else, just because this necklace was made by her boss, and it was her style at first glance.

But for this thing, Zhong Yan only admired it. After reading it, she raised her head again and said indifferently: "Take it back, I don't want it."

Zhong Ke looked at her with a smile: "This is for you, since you don't want it, no one can accept it."

Zhong Yan sneered: "What does that have to do with me? You take your own things away."

But Zhong Ke sighed softly, and said softly: "Zhong Yan, how long have we known each other? It's almost 30 years. We have many bad memories in the 30 years, but in the next 60 years, I want you to know each other. My memory becomes happy. Can you give me this chance?"

Zhong Yan refused firmly: "No! In my eyes, you are like an enemy. I really have nothing to say to you. And every time you show up, my memory is getting worse. I beg you, if you If you really think about me, can you let me go?"

She had already mentioned this point, but Zhong Ke still refused with a light smile: "No, then I beg you too, give me a chance, no matter it is to make up for it or what, I will do it for you."

"Don't even think about it, it's impossible! Please leave, or I will call the police!"

Zhong Ke also knew that Zhong Yan was not happy, and it would be useless to continue, so he stood up, glanced at Zhong Yan before leaving, and said like an oath: "I will come again in the future, Zhong Yan."

Zhong Yan was overwhelmed by the disturbance, and kicked her out without saying a word, but not long after, her doorbell rang again.

Zhong Yan was in a fit of anger, and when he heard the sound, he opened the door angrily and scolded the person in front of him: "You won't be obedient, are you? I'll let you go, why are you so cheap..."

Gu Huaizhou, who was standing outside the door, tilted his head in confusion, and said softly "Huh?"
