Chapter 340 Accept the invitation
Being pointed at on the nose and scolded by a yellow-haired girl, Ning Changyuan felt that he had lost face today. No, it was a great humiliation.
But he was not blinded by anger.
The Shen family didn't seem to show up, but their attitude was clearly tacit approval, otherwise they wouldn't have even called until now.
This is one reason. Secondly, he had already heard about what happened in Gujia Village.
It was because of this that the Shen family was able to enter the core layer ahead of time and remain stable until now. Who wouldn't be jealous of their rapid rise to fame?
Ning Changyuan was no exception. It was only after his deliberate investigation that he learned some details.
Therefore, he was more aware that he should not act rashly.
After all, the Ning family had just been rehabilitated and could not afford any more trouble.
Moreover, even if he retaliated, it would not be a glorious thing, and he would be criticized for arguing with a girl. But it did not mean that he was willing to swallow this breath.
At their level, sometimes they don't even need to do anything themselves...
After thinking for a while, he made a casual phone call. It seemed like they were just chatting about daily life and what happened today. Although what they said was just a quarrel between young people, the meaning revealed in their words was more than that.
The person on the other side quickly understood and repeatedly promised to help him vent his anger.
Ning Changyuan generously said no, but pretended that someone came from his home and hung up the phone in a hurry.
He was not afraid that the other party would just talk but not do anything. There were many people who wanted to curry favor with the Ning family, and if this one was gone, there would be the next one.
In addition, even if someone found out, he was not worried. From the beginning to the end, he did not promise anything, but the other party understood it.
The person who originally answered the phone wanted to take this opportunity to show his face, but soon got the news that in addition to the Shen family, the girl also had contacts with the Gao family, the Zeng family and even the He commander's family in the compound, and the relationship was very close.
After a while, she found out that Qi Yuanchao actually saluted her.
Although we couldn't hear what they were saying, all their actions were seen by the people around them.
What followed was astonishment. Where did this girl come from? Her connections were too terrifying!
Especially the Qi family, a family of loyal heroes, all of whom died on the battlefield. Qi Yuanchao was the only descendant left in the family, and even the side branches died heroically for the country.
Let’s put it this way, even if the other party achieves nothing or is useless in the future, the country will never treat him unfairly.
What's more, he has outstanding abilities and is now a colonel. You should know that he is less than 30 years old this year. What an honor it is.
Such a person saluted an unknown person, which was surprising and made people more wary of Gu Mingyue.
The people who promised Ning Changyuan were now regretting their decision. If he took action, he might be treated differently by the Ning family. At the same time, he would offend the other families. He was really in a dilemma.
Gu Mingyue didn’t know that someone was troubled by her.
Facing Qi Yuanchao's formality, she returned the gift with a rare serious look on her face, and then said, "Thank you for accepting it, but I still hope you won't be so polite in the future. I just did what I should do. After all, it is the blessing of your wife and children. Without me, there will be others. There is really no need to be so grand."
Zhao Ying held the child close and said, "This is my son Qi Ping'an, nicknamed Kang Kang. To be honest, I have been married for many years before having this child. He is my life. Therefore, your little help is like a rebirth to me. No matter how much I thank you, it is not too much."
The child was fair and tender, with big grape-like eyes open and not making a fuss. When he saw Gu Mingyue, he even grinned. She looked at the child's father and couldn't help but joked, "Fortunately, the child looks like his mother."
The joking tone broke the solemn atmosphere, and Zhao Ying also laughed and said, "Yes, I think so too, but the child's father was not so dark before. Maybe he trained too much and got sunburned."
Being teased by his wife in front of everyone, Qi Yuanchao touched his nose in embarrassment and said awkwardly, "It's not good for a boy to be too white. Haven't you heard that pretty boys have no good intentions?"
In a word, he offended the other three male comrades present, and it can be seen that this guy is quite outspoken...
Gu Mingyue couldn't help but laugh and chimed in, "That's true. For men, looks are not important, ability comes first."
When Qi Yuanchao is serious, he looks mature beyond his years; when he has a rich expression, his face reveals the youthful vigor and vitality.
It can be seen that the couple has a good relationship. The first time he got approval, the other party looked at his wife, as if he was proud to show off that he was recognized.
Zhao Ying glared at him angrily. The atmosphere between the two was so warm that Gu Mingyue felt like she was eating dog food on the spot, and she was choking...
"My benefactor, since we have the chance to meet again, do you have time to have a meal?"
"Call me Mingyue. What a coincidence. I have an appointment today."
Zhao Ying asked regretfully, "What about tomorrow?"
The couple was full of sincerity. Gu Mingyue had a good impression of this family of three, so she said, "If you don't want to bother us, how about tomorrow night?"
Zhao Ying immediately said happily, "Okay, okay. It's a deal. I'll go back and prepare now."
Gu Mingyue stopped her and said, "Don't make it too sumptuous. Just a simple meal will do. Otherwise, I will feel ashamed of it."
Zhao Ying readily agreed and left satisfied.
Gu Mingyue turned around and saw Zeng Min and the others were also looking forward to it, and said helplessly, "Before leaving, didn't I just finish dinner with you guys? It's only been a short time, don't join in the fun."
Wu Meiqi pulled her arm and said, "Secretary, that was in the village, it was your home ground. Now we are in our home ground, you have to give us a chance to show off."
Wu Shengli echoed, "Yeah, I've already thought of what to take you to eat, you can't be partial, and besides, we got here first, and you agreed to someone else's, that's really not nice."
Gu Mingyue said speechlessly, "It's hard to refuse such a kind invitation. Okay, okay, the day after tomorrow, if you are free, I will call you. Let me make it clear in advance that if the food you bring me is not delicious, I will be angry."
Wu Shengli flattered, "Okay, just wait and see. Meiqi, let's go and get ready."
In the end, only He Linfeng stayed behind. While walking on the road, he took the opportunity to tell Qi Yuanchao about his life story.
When Gu Mingyue learned about the heroic deeds of this family, she was very impressed and at the same time was glad that she did not reject their kindness.
He Linfeng heard what happened in the car and said with some fear, "Thank goodness you had sharp eyes at the time, otherwise, the consequences would have been disastrous. Those people were really bold."
Gu Mingyue frowned. "Your compliments are really awkward. I am very perceptive. At the very least, you can praise me for my sharp eyes. Look at you. You are still a college student. Your education level is really poor."
He Linfeng, who had forgotten the pain after his wound healed, said sarcastically, "Secretary, you don't have to hide it from me. I guess you must have been bored and instigated Liang Yuanyuan. The two of you hit it off and became accomplices. You chatted around and that's why you happened to meet."
Gu Mingyue just happened to see a snow pile in front of him and pushed him directly, "Go to hell!"
