Chapter 26: Touched by him
Xinxin Mansion.
Xu Yan quickly got out of the car, looked at the two people in the lowered window, thanked him softly, and turned around to leave regardless of the sincere plea in Liang Jingwan's eyes.
The air seemed to be even quieter. Liang Jingwan secretly glanced sideways and caught a glimpse of Gu Zhengchen closing his eyes, feeling relaxed for a moment.
Suddenly, the person next to him said, "Why did you think of calling Xu Ying?"
The reason was simple. Liang Jingwan repeated what she was thinking.
Gu Zhengchen slowly opened his eyes, his deep gaze fell on Liang Jingwan, "You can call me next time."
Liang Jingwan held her breath, then gently turned her lips, "Dr. Gu is busy and I don't dare to trouble you."
"If you are not an employee of Zhongrong, there is no need to call me Director Gu." The magnetic voice sounded in the dark night, adding a touch of sultryness.
"Then...Mr. Gu?" Liang Jingwan asked tentatively while looking at Gu Zhengchen's face. Seeing that he didn't answer, she knew that he was not satisfied with her answer. She thought...
"Gu...Uncle Gu."
I saw Gu Zhengchen closing his eyes again, "You and Jing Cheng have a good relationship?"
Liang Jingwan's eyebrows jumped. Gu Zhengchen's words were somewhat thoughtful, but she didn't understand. Didn't this matter spread? Why did Gu Zhengchen still ask her about it?
But Liang Jingwan also recalled that when she met Gu Zhengchen for the second time, Xi Jingcheng introduced him as a friend. She could only think that the boss didn't care about gossip, so she didn't know about the marriage between the Xi family and the Liang family.
Liang Jingwan used her words appropriately, "He and my brother are friends."
Gu Zhengchen nodded, and then said, "Go up."
After Gu Zhengchen's reminder, Liang Jingwan realized that the car had been parked at No. 11 Bodhi Bay.
Liang Jingwan thanked her in a low voice and watched the Mercedes-Benz leave before she slowly walked into the building.
The next day.
She should have had a good rest during the weekend, and it was almost eleven o'clock after returning home last night. Liang Jingwan was lying on the bed, sleeping soundly, but was woken up by a phone call.
Liang Jingwan frowned, opened one eye, and answered the phone.
"Hello."
"Hey, you haven't gotten up yet?" It was Lao Liang's voice.
"Is there anything wrong with calling so early?" Liang Jingwan's voice was hoarse.
"First look at what time it is now, and then say this."
Liang Jingwan tried her best to open her remaining eye and looked at the time displayed on the phone screen. It was already past one o'clock in the afternoon, which was indeed not early.
"Why are you calling?" Liang Jingwan did not continue to worry about the time issue.
"Accompany me to participate in a ball game. I'll give you half an hour. I just set off from home."
Before Liang Jingwan could reply, Lao Liang had already cut off the phone call.
Liang Jingwan squeezed the phone tightly and squirmed on the bed for a while before getting up and washing up.
When she came downstairs, Lao Liang was already waiting for her downstairs. Regardless of Lao Liang blowing his beard and staring, she caught up on her sleep as soon as she got in the car.
The car drove for forty minutes before stopping.
Liang Jingwan opened her eyes spontaneously, yawned and stretched, "Are we here?"
Lao Liang nodded, and the father and daughter got out of the car.
It wasn't until the driver drove the car to the parking lot that Liang Jingwan realized, "Uncle Ming didn't come with you?" The Uncle Ming in Liang Jingwan's mouth was Lao Liang's assistant.
"Now that you are with me, what can I do for him?"
The sun was dazzling, Liang Jingwan wore a sun hat, and the father and daughter walked on the lawn.
"There are still a few people today. Let them get to know you so that the situation like last time doesn't happen again." Lao Liang put his hands behind his back.
Liang Jingwan pretended to be dumbfounded and asked innocently, "What happened last time?"
Lao Liang snorted, "Xiao Zhou told me that I respect your wishes and let you work for him. Firstly, you like it. Secondly, I want you to make your own career. You join Lindu Law Firm." After more than four months, it’s time to experience life. When will you come home?”
Liang Jingwan raised her voice and retorted, "It's only three months and twenty-seven days, how can it be more than four months."
"Your grandfather and I asked you to study business, but you were in Cambridge, so you chose law instead, and then went to Chicago to study psychology for your master's degree..." Old Liang rambled on, and Liang Jingwan pursed her lips and lowered her head to listen silently. With.
After a few minutes, Lao Liang gradually stopped, and Liang Jingwan appropriately changed the topic, "Didn't I say there are a few more people? Who is there?"
"You don't have to worry about anyone."
Liang Jingwan pouted, "Then I have to remember who it is."
"It's them who remember you, not you who get to know them. You just have to remember not to recognize the wrong person." Lao Liang said.
Liang Jingwan raised her hand to block the light and asked curiously, "Who is it?"
"Gu Zhengchen."
Liang Jingwan didn't answer, her eyes wandering.
"He is more courageous and ruthless than his father in doing things. When he took office seven years ago, he proposed to enter the energy industry and automobile industry on the board of directors, and then carried out drastic reorganization. Several subsidiaries were listed one after another, and the government called for The mainland and the port area have strengthened their cooperation. A few months ago, they cooperated with a listed company in the port area to build a port in Lincheng. Three years ago, it was his turn to take the position of the richest man in Lincheng.”
"Even though he is young, whoever sees him doesn't call him "Director Gu". In recent years, Zhongrong has been at the top of the list for several disaster relief material donations, and who doesn't praise him for his kindness."
Lao Liang reached out and patted Liang Jingwan on the shoulder, "If you want to be respected by others, you have to rely on yourself."
Liang Jingwan was silent for a long time. She turned her eyes and saw a few men standing on the outdoor tennis court. She pointed and said, "Is it over there?"
Lao Liang nodded.
As soon as Lao Liang led Liang Jingwan into the tennis court, the man who was originally sitting on the chair stood up. Liang Jingwan glanced at them one by one. They were all middle-aged entrepreneurs from Lincheng.
After exchanging a few words, Lao Liang pointed to Liang Jingwan beside him, "My daughter Liang Jingwan just came back from abroad not long ago."
Everyone suddenly realized.
Liang Jingwan gently curled her lips, smiled, and followed Lao Liang's introduction, calling them names one by one.
Someone commented, "You have grown into a big girl. I remember being so tall when I was a child." He stretched out his hand and gestured, "Following Director Liang, it has been so many years in a blink of an eye."
While several people were reminiscing about the past, Gu Zhengchen also walked over.
Liang Jingwan glanced back, wearing a black sportswear with a relaxed and casual look, strolling leisurely, followed by Lin Yuan.
Following Lao Liang's introduction, Liang Jingwan stretched out her hand and said with a business smile, "Director Gu."
She pretended not to know him, and Gu Zhengchen acted as if they had never met before. He stretched out his hand in cooperation and said softly, "Miss Liang."
The warm palms overlapped each other. Liang Jingwan lowered her head and lowered her eyes. The big, sharp-jointed hands wrapped around the white and delicate little hands. Just as she was about to let go, she felt an itching sensation on her wrist unprepared.
After a few seconds, Liang Jingwan realized belatedly that she seemed to have been touched by someone. Liang Jingwan moved her eyes to Gu Zhengchen.
Gu Zhengchen was chatting and laughing with the people next to him, as if the person who just rubbed the girl's wrist with his thumb was not him.
