Chapter 989: Chapter 419: Is this really my son’s house?
Last New Year, Yang Lijuan was puzzled. Her own boy, whom she’d watched grow for eighteen years, wasn’t all that exceptional. So why was he worth Su Qing’s and that little girl from the capital city’s interest? Now, seeing the average level of their dorm, Yang Lijuan understood.
Turns out the little girls from the big city are each prettier than the last.
Especially that one with the slightly larger fra.
Thinking of this, Yang Lijuan couldn’t help but take another look at Tao Tian standing over there. Anyone would first notice Tao Tian.
From an elder’s perspective, Tao Tian’s looks would really bring prosperity to a family. Thinking of this, Yang Lijuan couldn’t resist glancing at her husband who had just stepped out of the car.
Luckily, Zhou Guobin was preoccupied with work and had not had ti to look, otherwise, he’d surely endure a teasing from his wife.
Hearing Yang Lijuan’s preconceived notion that she was one of Su Qing’s dorm mates, Tao Tian couldn’t hold back a snicker, gently covering her mouth and saying to Yang Lijuan, “Auntie, you misunderstood. The three of them are in the sa dorm; I’m two years ahead of them. My na is Tao Tian, and I’m considered Zhou Yuwen’s senior.”
“Huh? Then you?” Yang Lijuan was taken aback upon hearing this and hadn’t had the chance to ask before Tao Tian broke into a smile and said, “I’m currently working at Zhou Yuwen’s company; Zhou Yuwen is considered my boss, so he asked to entertain you.”
“Oh, oh.” Yang Lijuan’s expression turned a bit odd after hearing Tao Tian explain, and she couldn’t help but steal another look at her, while her thoughts shifted.
My son’s subordinate?
With so many capable people in the world, my son finds soone like this…
Yang Lijuan’s expression grew complex as she glanced at her husband beside her.
Zhou Guobin, oblivious to his wife’s true thoughts, was a sowhat rigid man, but after years of working, he had seen plenty of beautiful won.
When won approached him, Zhou Guobin could maintain his integrity, let alone girls twenty years younger. Zhou Guobin’s trip to Jinling was primarily to see his son, who often surprised him.
Therefore, facing these young, lively girls, Zhou Guobin simply asked Su Qing, whom he believed had the closest ties with Zhou Yuwen, “Is Yuwen still at work?”
“Oh, uncle, Zhou Yuwen has one more public lecture on entrepreneurship to give. He wanted us to settle you in at ho first,” Su Qing said respectfully.
Zhou Guobin said that would not be necessary.
“Your aunt and I have already booked a hotel. If he’s not done yet, we’ll just wait for him at the hotel. There’s no need for you to go back and forth.”
Hearing this, Su Qing quickly tried to say sothing, but before she could speak, Tao Tian laughed and said, “Why not stay at ho? Uncle, Zhou Yuwen’s new house is just ready; you’ve co all this way, how can we let you stay at a hotel? Surely, you should visit and maybe give Yuwen so suggestions.”
Su Qing, left with nothing to say, finally ca out with, “Right!”
And at this mont, both of Zhou Yuwen’s parents found themselves captivated by this girl, who was not only tall and graceful but also incredibly articulate.
Even Zhou Guobin couldn’t help but take a few extra glances. To be honest, there are many girls like Tao Tian who are both strikingly beautiful and highly intelligent, but one as exceptionally good-looking is rare. Tao Tian seed like the kind of girl who, if she joined a governntal role, would easily find a significant position even without an official title.
Looking at Tao Tian in front of him, Zhou Guobin squinted slightly, thinking, this rascal, really underestimated him.
“Uncle, what do you think?” Facing Zhou Guobin’s scrutiny, Tao Tian didn’t show any timidity; instead, she gave him a smile.
But Zhou Guobin had just started to consider it when Yang Lijuan nodded and said, “I think what little Tao says makes a lot of sense. We have a house, so why insist on staying at a hotel? What? Just because our son has money now? Should we waste it like this?”
“What are you saying?” Zhou Guobin frowned imdiately, displeased, thinking after all these years, her mouth is still so unrestrained.
Hearing Yang Lijuan’s words, the girls giggled, as Yang Lijuan gradually persuaded Zhou Guobin not to stay at a hotel, insisting they should at least visit their son’s new place, right?
Unable to resist his wife, Zhou Guobin nodded in agreent.
Thus, Tao Tian drove ahead to lead the way, while Zhou Guobin drove behind.
At this mont, Zheng Yanyan beca proactive, although she had lost the initiative during the New Year, she got along quite well with Yang Lijuan. She said, “Auntie, may I ride with you?”
Saying this, she affectionately held onto Yang Lijuan’s arm.
Yang Lijuan also liked this girl from the capital city quite a bit, smiling and saying, “Sure, you can chat with Auntie.”
Su Qing did not contest this temporary standing, sitting properly in the passenger seat beside Tao Tian.
On the road to the villa, Tao Tian, curious, asked Su Qing why she hadn’t joined the uncle and aunt’s car.
“That’s not really like you.”
Su Qing disdainfully said, “At this point, so what if I win against her? In the end, I still can’t beat that woman Jiang Xinyi.”
At the ntion of Jiang Xinyi, the three won in the car all seed to dim slightly.
Indeed, before Jiang Xinyi arrived, they all might have thought they stood so chance; but with Jiang Xinyi confird as Zhou Yuwen’s girlfriend, it felt like, however hard they tried, they could at most earn the position of a concubine.
