Seeing Yi Yi like this, Gu Ziyi was helpless.
Gu Cheng neither helped nor blocked, he just let things take their own course.
Yiyi is just promoting her daughter. As for whether she can succeed or not, that is not her business. She just promoted it in various ways. The closer Gu Ziyi was to turning thirty, the more anxious she became. She couldn't control this anxiety, especially when she saw that most girls of Gu Ziyi's age were getting married.
Gu Ziyi sat aside, quietly. I don’t feel embarrassed or bored. It doesn't matter, just break the jar.
As for Zuo Yang, it's like a glow on his back. In front of them were the smiling faces of Yi Yi and Gu Cheng, and behind them were Luo Lian's eyes. He felt like his back was getting cold at this moment.
Zuo Yang's inner OS: Uncle and aunt, please let me go. Introduce your daughter to me, and Luo Lian will definitely blow my head off.
Luo Lian glanced at Zuo Yang a few times, then stopped looking at him. Instead, he lowered his head, picked up his phone, and sent a WeChat message.
He remained calm and the message was sent to Zuo Yang.
No, as we were chatting, I lowered my head and looked at my phone. Zuo Yang then tried his best to restrain his facial expression.
"Uncle and aunt, where are you going?"
Yi Yi told the truth: "We are going to Suzhou to celebrate the New Year there. What about you?"
"We are going to Changsha on a business trip." Zuo Yang told the truth.
Luo Lian didn't look at them, but he did listen with his ears.
"Are you in love?" Yi Yi asked Zuo Yang.
Zuo Yang: "..." Did we talk about it
"Not yet." As soon as Zuo Yang finished speaking, he felt a cold gaze, and he immediately added: "But I have someone I like." He stared and told lies.
Gu Ziyi held her chin with one hand and glanced at Zuo Yang's face.
"Oh..." Yi Yi's tone was a little pity.
At this time, Zuo Yang started to sell: "My brother is also single." Zuo Yang laughed and looked at Luo Lian beside him.
Gu Cheng and Yi Yi had only heard of Luo Lian but had never seen him, so they didn't know that this person was Luo Lian.
Gu Ziyi's expression became a little subtle for a moment.
Luo Lian raised his head and kept smiling politely.
Yi Yi looked Luo Lian up and down and said, "Young man, how old are you this year?" He hadn't asked his name yet.
"I'm... thirty this year." Luo Lian is thirty years old this year, and he can be considered middle-aged. It's just that because he just entered the age of 30, he doesn't look old yet.
Yi Yi laughed and asked his name, "What is your name?"
"My surname is Luo, Luo Lian." Luo Lian told the truth.
A smile appeared on Gu Ziyi's face.
The expressions of Yi Yi and Gu Cheng... instantly became subtle.
Luo Lian saw something was wrong with them and didn't know what was going on.
Yi Yi looked at it again, then looked back at Gu Ziyi beside him.
Gu Ziyi sat there lazily, crossing her legs. The smile on his face deepened, "Well, yes, he is my ex-boyfriend."
Gu Cheng: "..."
Yi Yi: “…”
Zuo Yang: "..."
Luo Lian: "..."
This situation is quite unexpected.
Luo Lian never thought that Gu Ziyi would talk about him to his family. Yi Yi and Gu Cheng's reactions clearly indicated that they had heard of him.
Gu Ziyi looked at her watch and said, "You guys keep talking." She was very calm.
He was so calm that others didn't dare to talk anymore.
Luo Lian looked at Gu Ziyi and watched her expression. It was very calm and didn't take it to heart. When Gu Ziyi saw him today, she acted very calmly. It made him realize that he might really mean nothing to Gu Ziyi.
Luo Lian lowered his eyelashes, feeling more or less disappointed.
Instead, Gu Cheng chatted with Luo Lian, "You are Mingsheng's Mr. Luo, I have admired you for a long time."
Luo Lian raised his eyes and replied politely: "I have also admired Dong Daming for a long time."
What was originally a small talk changed its nature, like a business meeting.
Yi Yi couldn't get in the conversation anymore. She changed her position and sat next to Gu Ziyi, chatting with her about her "ex-boyfriend". "He's quite handsome."
Gu Ziyi chuckled, "Will my boyfriend be ugly?"
Yi Yi asked her: "Why did you two break up?" She heard Gu Cheng mention Luo Lian, and heard that he was very capable and talented, and that he was a rare talent.
Gu Ziyi glanced at Luo Lian who was talking to Gu Cheng, "Because... we broke up."
Yi Yi: "...Oh, it's still hidden."
Gu Ziyi took Yi Yi's arm and said, "It's in the past, so there's no need to mention it."
Yi Yi stopped asking further questions.
Before long, it was time for them to register.
Luo Lian and Zuo Yang's plane was later than them.
The two men politely gave them a few steps away.
Luo Lian kept watching Gu Ziyi's figure disappear, and then she was willing to look away.
Zuo Yang patted his shoulder and said, "It seems that you will have to wait until the new year before you can see Gu Ziyi in Beijing."
Luo Lian twitched the corners of her lips, "Yes."
"You're in a good mood." Zuo Yang raised his eyebrows.
Luo Lian sat back down and said, "It's okay." Seeing Gu Ziyi, he felt an indescribable feeling of joy in his heart.
Zuo Yang shook his head, helpless. Luo Lian is completely screwed up in this life. Except for Gu Ziyi, I have never seen anyone of the opposite sex have an influence on Luo Lian.
That’s all, I don’t want to think about it anymore.
Zuo Yang also sat back and waited quietly to board the plane.
—
Gu Ziyi and the others do not have a direct flight to Suzhou and need to transfer on the way, so it will take a little longer.
When they arrived in Suzhou, Gu Yifan's family had been waiting for them.
Gu Yifan's father is Gu Yan, a middle-aged man with a somewhat bloated figure. He is also getting older, and his temples are turning white.
Gu Yan and Gu Cheng started chatting enthusiastically and cordially as soon as they met.
Yi Yi also has a good relationship with Gu Yifan's mother Yao Ruzhen.
They took the same car, so naturally Gu Ziyi got into the latter car, and she and Gu Yifan sat together.
"How was it? Did you get scolded after you got home?" Gu Ziyi and Gu Yifan were both sitting in the back seat, chatting.
Gu Yifan shrugged, "No, but I didn't look good in the first two days."
"That's good." Gu Ziyi smiled.
"I guess there will be a lot of excitement at home these two days. Relatives and friends will come over." Gu Yifan's family has many relatives in Suzhou, and they will come to pay early New Year greetings before the end of the year.
Originally, Gu Ziyi and the others would come only after the new year every year, so it wouldn't be particularly noisy. But if you come early this year, you will bump into this group of people.
Gu Ziyi looked at the winter scene passing by outside the window, "It's nothing, we are here to disturb you."
Gu Yifan laughed: "I don't want to disturb my family. But... can you play mahjong?"
One of the New Year activities is playing mahjong.
Gu Ziyi shook her head, "I really don't understand."
"Maybe I'll have to be pulled into the game this year too." Gu Yifan raised his eyebrows.
