Mu Lanshu felt her teeth sore as she watched from the side.
Gu Nian puffed up her cheeks and twisted them hard again. Her fingers were sore from the effort.
But he acted like nothing was wrong, and it seemed that the more she pinched him, the happier he became.
"Chu Zhaoyang, let me go first." Gu Nian whispered.
Because she just cried, her tears couldn't stop even for a while.
Hung on the eyelashes, plump and pitiful.
The eye sockets were red, the tip of the nose was red, and even the lips were becoming fuller and brighter.
This look was both innocent and aggrieved.
Chu Zhaoyang couldn't help but sigh with satisfaction, it's not that he didn't feel distressed.
But, he really wanted to see her like this.
He haven't seen her in the past few days.
Even if he think about it every day and every night.
He couldn't help but have her appearance in his mind, but after all, she's not a real person.
Now that he saw her and held her, he feel satisfied.
Only then did he realize that no matter how deep her image was in his mind in the past, it could not be as vivid and satisfying to him as she was in front of him and in his arms.
If Mu Lanshu wasn't here, Chu Zhaoyang really wanted to hold her in his arms and kiss her.
Mu Lanshu...
Chu Zhaoyang looked at her.
According to his investigation, Mu Lanshu did not know when Gu Licheng committed the crime.
At that time, Mu Lanshu only knew that Gu Licheng was working outside, but she didn't know what he was doing.
Later, except for Gu Licheng and one other person, all the kidnappers were arrested.
When Gu Licheng was on the run, he probably went back to see Mu Lanshu.
It was not directly shown in the investigation, but based on Mu Lanshu's abnormality at the time and some clues revealed, it was shown that Gu Licheng went to see her at that time.
At that time, Mu Lanshu learned about Gu Licheng.
He didn't know, it's because Gu Licheng was on the run and will not go back.
It was because Mu Lanshu hated Gu Licheng's actions and did not want to have anything to do with him anymore.
The day after Gu Licheng left, Mu Lanshu packed her things, said goodbye to her family, and took Gu Nian to City B.
A woman has no skills or high education and could only do hard work.
However, she gritted her teeth and raised Gu Nian up and took root in City B.
How many hardships and suffering they have gone through could not be described in words.
At this point, Chu Zhaoyang admired Mu Lanshu very much.
"Auntie." Chu Zhaoyang nodded lightly to Mu Lanshu.
Mu Lanshu's pupils swayed a few times, and she took a half step back uncomfortably, her eyes half-covered.
"Why are you here?" Mu Lanshu asked uncomfortably.
Look at him, and then look at Gu Nian who was unable to move in his arms.
Looking at Gu Nian, it seemed that she had cried, but now her face was filled with brilliance. Not at all as listless and worried as before.
Mu Lanshu couldn't help but sigh. Chu Zhaoyang only showed his face, but Gu Nian had such a big change.
What could they do in the future?
"I came to see Nian Nian." Chu Zhaoyang explained, "I was stuck by something before and couldn't see her. Now that the matter is resolved, I'm coming over."
Mu Lanshu nodded, looked around, and said, "Stop standing outside and come in. Just in time, her cousin asked about her boyfriend."
Chu Zhaoyang remained calm, but he had also seen the link posted by Nan Jingheng in the 88x64 group.
It was the question that the seven aunts and eight aunts like to ask most during the Chinese New Year.
Emotional problems bear the brunt.
Looking down at Gu Nian, a warm and soothing smile appeared on his lips, and his voice was rich: "How did you answer?"
Gu Nian's face sank and he said lukewarmly: "I thought my boyfriend was going to break up with me, what else could I say?"
Chu Zhaoyang: "..."
She hasn't calmed down yet.
Mu Lanshu looked at Gu Nian. Sure enough, the two had a conflict before.
Chu Zhaoyang nodded awkwardly to Mu Lanshu, then lowered his head and flicked Gu Nian's forehead: "Don't talk nonsense, what's the deal?"
Finally, the warm hand slid from her waist to her hand.
Then, hold it firmly.
Her hand was so soft and small. It was said that she was holding it, but in fact it was almost wrapped in his palm.
The warmth from his palm was continuously transferred to her hand, and the heat rushed along the wrist and into the heart.
Gu Nian bit her lower lip gently, raised her eyes, and glanced at him with a hint of anger or resentment.
This glance, a faint, watery little look, quiet, light and slow.
Chu Zhaoyang felt hot in his heart and tightened her hand.
He vowed silently in his heart that hewould never let her be wronged like this again.
"Take me in and introduce them to me." Chu Zhaoyang said softly.
Gu Nian was slightly surprised. This man never liked meeting outsiders.
It's just a few that he's close to and could talk to.
Other people, even at banquets, Han Zhuoli said, were indifferent to others.
When talking about business, he was also so serious, unsmiling, and not friendly with others.
However, because they knew his character and because of Chutian's strength, no one dared to have any dissatisfaction with him. On the contrary, they all still accepted his behavior.
Every cooperation could be said to be done in a hurry.
And those relatives inside, to be honest, were not very close to her.
Gu Nian could barely name him, and she was not too familiar with him.
With Chu Zhaoyang's usual personality, he would be completely too lazy to socialize with these things.
She thought, maybe he wanted to compensate her?
However, she felt it was not necessary.
She didn't need any compensation.
As long as they were all fine, that's fine.
Gu Nian shook her hand and said, "You don't have to force yourself. It's okay not to see them."
"I'm not." Chu Zhaoyang said and stepped in.
Mu Lanshu sighed inwardly and said: "Since everyone is here, they should meet. If I don't see your cousins and aunts, don't you still have your grandparents? Let the old man see Chu Zhaoyang, and he will feel happy ."
Gu Nian thought of Old Mr. Mu and Old Mrs. Mu and nodded.
She said to Chu Zhaoyang: "The important thing is to meet grandpa and grandma. Don't take anything else to heart."
Suddenly, she thought of Cui Xinmei again.
To her, Cui Xinmei could tell her to introduce a job to Mu Qishan in City B.
If she knew Chu Zhaoyang's identity, she still didn't know how to make further progress.
Even if she didn't know Chu Zhaoyang's identity, she could tell by his temperament that he was no ordinary person.
It didn't take much good eyesight to do this. In fact, Chu Zhaoyang's temperament was too eye-catching and his aura was too strong. Most people don't have it at all, and they couldn't learn it even if they wanted to.
Gu Nian reminded in a low voice: "There is also my aunt in there. She... Anyway, just listen to what she says. Don't take it for granted."
Chu Zhaoyang raised his eyebrows, and Mu Lanshu said: "Yes, I forgot about this. Gu Nian's aunt loves to take advantage, and she feels that anyone should help her. So, if she tells you, just pretend you didn't hear it."
Seeing that mother and daughter were both so serious, Chu Zhaoyang nodded to reassure them: "I know."
"Go in, you've been outside for too long, and the people inside felt strange enough that you haven;t come back for a long time." Mu Lanshu urged.
Gu Nian then brought Chu Zhaoyang into the house.
Unexpectedly, during the first Spring Festival after she got my boyfriend, she would take Chu Zhaoyang to meet the elders of the family, and to meet so many people at once. Gu Nian was quite embarrassed.
She led Chu Zhaoyang into the room with a look of embarrassment. Everyone in the room fell silent and stared at the two people in stunned silence.
Her cousin's eyes moved from Gu Nian's face to Chu Zhaoyang's face, and then looked down to see the hands of the two holding hands.
Then, her eyes returned from their hands to their faces.
Cui Xinmei raised her eyes weakly, looking at Chu Zhaoyang with both negative and positive eyes, curling her lips, and the expression on her face became even more bitter.
Mu Qishan was still playing with her phone boredly. She was really too lazy to listen to the chatter of these old people and the showoff of her cousin's family.
But when she saw Chu Zhaoyang, she froze for a moment. She opened her mouth and forgot to close it. She kept holding the phone and raising her head. Her eyes widened when she looked at Chu Zhaoyang.
This...was this Gu Nian's boyfriend?
So outstanding, where did she find it?
Old Mr. Mu and Old Mrs. Mu both stood up and came over to greet them. Old Mrs. Mu came directly and held Chu Zhaoyang's hand, patting it lovingly: "Nian Nian, this is——"
Chu Zhaoyang bowed slightly and said in a clear and restrained voice, "Grandfather, grandmother, I am Gu Nian's boyfriend, Chu Zhaoyang."
"Okay, okay, okay." Old Mrs. Mu nodded hurriedly, smiling extremely happily.
Hurriedly pulling Chu Zhaoyang to the sofa: "Come and sit down, we were talking about you just now."
Chu Zhaoyang twitched the corners of his lips, smiled slightly, and then immediately suppressed it again.
This fleeting smile was like a flash in the pan, but it still left everyone stunned.
Everyone had the same thought at this time: Where did Gu Nian find such an outstanding man.
They dudn't have to mention his other conditions, just his looks were enough to kill everything in an instant!
Her cousin moved aside to make some room.
Chu Zhaoyang looked at it and saw that the sofa was not big enough to seat so many people, so he said, "Grandfather, grandmother, you sit down, I'll sit with Gu Nian."
Gu Nian quickly brought a chair and placed it next to his seat.
Chu Zhaoyang came back calmly and sat next to Gu Nian.
He lowered his eyes and visually measured the distance between the two. He was not very satisfied, so he moved a little further and sat closer to her.
He cherishes it very much when they meet again, and just wanted to be closer to her, even closer.
A place within reach of each other, a place where one could feel each other's warmth.
Chu Zhaoyang sat upright, with his back straight and his hands naturally placed on his knees.
He didn't dodge the glances everyone was looking at him at all.
It was so upright and steady that people will feel at ease at a glance.
"I heard from Gu Nian, is your home in City B?" Before the two elders of the Mu family could say anything, her cousin couldn't wait to ask.
"Yes." Chu Zhaoyang nodded and said nothing else.
For some reason, her cousin's usual gossipy attitude towards young people could not be used on Chu Zhaoyang, and she felt a lot of pressure for no reason.
The aura of this young man was too evil!
But, she couldn't bear the curiosity in her heart.
Her cousin took a few deep breaths and asked again: "Hey, you are so far away from home, and you came here today, and you didn't have a good Chinese New Year at home?"
"I came here after eating New Year's Eve dinner and dumplings." Chu Zhaoyang replied.
"I asked Gu Nian just now. She said you weren't coming. Why are you here again?" My cousin asked again.
"I want to give her a surprise." Chu Zhaoyang said, turning his head and smiling softly at Gu Nian.
The dark eyes were focused and full of tenderness.
There were obviously people in the room, but Chu Zhaoyang only had Gu Nian in his eyes.
Mu Qishan, who was sitting nearby, felt for the first time that her sense of existence was so low.
She was two years younger than Gu Nian, and was also very popular within her social circle.
Going to bars and nightclubs with friends, she will always encounter a lot of pick-ups.
