Chapter 2257: Chapter 61: If You Really Met a Good Man, Would You Be Willing to Introduce Him to Me?
Gu Zhitong joked, “Do you think you’re the most handsome man in the world?”
“That’s a fact.”
Mo Ziye’s serious demeanor made Wen Ziyang and Zhang Minghui, the two men on the other sofa, twitch at the corners of their mouths.
Gu Zhitong teased, “Ziyang, Brother Little Hui, don’t you have anything to say?”
“I’m still a baby.”
Wen Ziyang spoke first.
Zhang Minghui said slowly, “I’m not that narcissistic.”
“…”
Gu Zhitong glared at them, one by one, and turned back, not intending to let Mo Ziye off, “Tang Jinchen and Ye Zhan rely on talent, not looks.”
She turned her smiling eyes towards Qingqing, “I heard that man named Ye Zhan is after you, Qingqing. With the status of the Ye Family coupled with Ye Zhan’s capability, you ought to be worrying about yourself.”
Mo Ziye snorted disdainfully.
“If you think he’s good, you should marry him.”
Qingqing belongs to him.
No relation to the Ye Family, and the Ye Family can stop coveting what’s his.
“Flustered from shame.”
“You’re overthinking it, I’m just saying the guys you’ve attracted over the years are worse one by one. Ye Zhan might not be the best, but he’s better than those others.”
“Get lost!”
Gu Zhitong directly kicked at Mo Ziye.
However, he blocked it effortlessly with his lifted foot.
The smile at the corner of his mouth deepened with Gu Zhitong’s irritation, becoming more reckless.
“You’re the one who attracts flies like dung, with flies all over you when Qingqing wasn’t around. Speaking of which, why didn’t Shi Xi end up with you, didn’t you bring her home before?”
Among their group, who can really rival Mo Ziye.
It’d be Gu Zhitong.
The others are younger than Mo Ziye and simply can’t match him.
Gu Zhitong is also a sharp-tongued girl, and having the confidence of being two years older than Ziye growing up, she gains more and more proficiency in their verbal battles.
Not fearing that bringing up Shi Xi might stir conflict between Qingqing and Mo Ziye.
“She only met Qingqing, didn’t meet my parents, and didn’t step into the living room.”
What he meant was he didn’t plan to bring Shi Xi home, only for Qingqing’s view.
“Qingqing, did you hear that? Ziye admits he’s bullying you. Don’t pay him any heed; I’ll introduce you to a better man next time.”
“Sister Tongtong, if you really encounter a good man, would you be willing to introduce him to me?”
Qin Qingqing chuckled, and Gu Zhitong screeched, “Qingqing, now you’re helping Ziye bully me.”
“Don’t attack her, Qingqing is just telling the truth.”
Qin Qingqing is most afraid of tickling.
Gu Zhitong pretended to reach out to tickle her, but Mo Ziye blocked it.
Qin Qingqing was also sheltered in Mo Ziye’s arms.
Gu Zhitong pouted, stood up saying, “Not playing with you guys anymore, Ziye, I’ll remember what you did.”
“What?”
Mo Ziye’s arm encircled Qin Qingqing’s waist, pulling her into his embrace with the air filled with her orchid-like fragrance.
Causing his thoughts to slow momentarily.
Gu Zhitong snorted coldly, “I know, my business trip was your doing.”
Mo Ziye chuckled, “How is it my fault? It was Uncle who sent you on the business trip.”
——
On the way back, Qin Qingqing asked Mo Ziye, “Brother Ziye, what did Sister Tongtong mean by saying her business trip was your doing?”
Keeping his focus on driving, Mo Ziye glanced over at her casually, “I just mentioned Tang Jinchen went to the hospital to see Tongtong, who knew Uncle would send her on a business trip.”
“Cousin?”
Qin Qingqing blinked, showing surprise on her delicate face, “Could it be my cousin likes Sister Tongtong?”
“Maybe.”
A cold smile crossed Mo Ziye’s deep eyes.
Tang Jinchen later went to the hospital to see Gu Zhitong again, Mo Ziye was aware of that.
Whether or not he likes Gu Zhitong, Mo Ziye wasn’t certain.
But during the time Tang Jinchen spent in G City as a child, he loved playing with Tongtong, whatever treats he had, Tongtong was always the first to get.
Mo Ziye’s most vivid memory was Tang Jinchen climbing trees each day to pick magnolia flowers, always reserving the largest one for Tongtong, even if she wasn’t around, he’d save it for her.
Though at that time, they were a bunch of kids, not understanding romantic relationships.
But still it indicated that Tang Jinchen’s favorite person was Tongtong.
Qin Qingqing remarked knowingly, “No wonder my cousin said he has someone he likes, it looks like he really likes Sister Tongtong, oh, why aren’t you giving them a chance to be together?”
“It was Uncle, not me.”
Mo Ziye firmly distanced himself from the responsibility.
Who told Tang Jinchen to bring Ye Zhan to live at the Qin Family, with a look suggesting he wanted to marry Qingqing to Ye Zhan.
“My cousin is pretty good, maybe… Uncle doesn’t like him because of his background?”
Though Tang Jinchen’s biological father was a bad person, he’s been with Tang Yang all these years, being raised as his own son.
He’s now a soldier full of righteousness.
Seeing Qin Qingqing frowning, Mo Ziye freed a hand to pat her head, soothingly, “It’s nothing to do with his background. Uncle’s skepticism might be due to him being a soldier and not a G City resident.”
His Uncle Gu Kai is indeed a super protective father.
Although soldiers are great and heroic, privately, Gu Kai really doesn’t want Tongtong to become a military wife, facing hardship.
Moreover, Tang Jinchen is a native of the Imperial City, which is another reason.
If there are other reasons, it might be because Tang Jinchen shares the same surname as the man who broke Tongtong’s heart before.
——
At this time, in the Gu Family.
The message notification rang just as Gu Zhitong reached the top floor.
Taking out her phone, it was a WeChat message from Tang Jinchen. She had given Tang Jinchen her phone number at Qin’s front door, and he added her on WeChat afterward.
After she left for her business trip, Tang Jinchen sent her a message once, and they chatted briefly.
[Tongtong, when are you returning to G City from your business trip?]
Only after she entered her room, Gu Zhitong replied: [I’m already home.]
A few seconds later, Tang Jinchen called. Seeing his flashing name, Gu Zhitong hesitated before pressing the answer button, “Hello!”
“Tongtong, you’re back already?”
“Yeah, got home at noon.”
“I thought you were still in Y City…”
Y City isn’t too far off, and Tang Jinchen frequents there… He had planned on going to Y City to find Gu Zhitong.
Yet, she’d returned.
This is really…
“The presentation ended, so I came back.”
Gu Zhitong leaned back into the fabric sofa, listening to Tang Jinchen’s voice over the phone, “I’ll come to G City to see you next holiday.”
“What for?”
“To make babies!”
“…”
