My Dear Classmate Chapter 16: Relationship at the same table [16]

After Qiao Zhishen passed Gu Zhiran again that day in London, he flew back to City A that night.

Ten hours of flying made him feel a little tired. He didn't go back to the company immediately, but went back to the apartment to catch the jet lag. But before going to bed, he called his assistant and told him to search for the companies Qiao's cooperated with. Among them, is there any middle-level management personnel recruited? At the same time, this company is not in city a.

The assistant acted very quickly, and the information was sent to his mailbox after a few hours.

After going to work the next day, Qiao Zhishen called Lin Tianlan to the office.

Haven't seen Qiao Zhishen for several days, Lin Tianlan was very happy when he asked her to go to his office now, but when he saw Qiao Zhishen's calm face, she couldn't help panicking.

"Mr. Qiao, what can I do for you?" Lin Tianlan asked calmly.

Qiao Zhishen did not answer her, but threw the information sent to him by his assistant directly in front of her, and said, "Choose a company from among them, and I will help you to say hello to the boss there. Then you can go to work. I will also arrange for the nursing home that my aunt needs to stay in. " Qiao Zhishen tried to keep calm, but couldn't hide his anger.

"...Why? Do you mean to fire me? What did I do wrong?" Regarding Qiao Zhishen's sudden change of attitude, Lin Tianlan was shocked at first, and then became pitiful.

When Qiao Zhishen looked at her pitiful look, he became angry: "What did you do wrong? Lin Tianlan, you are the only person that I, Qiao Zhishen, have misjudged so far. I thought you were a kind person people, but in fact, you are as poisonous as a snake."

Facing Qiao Zhishen's sharp accusation, Lin Tianlan looked at him incredulously. But Qiao Zhishen would never be fooled by her again: "Six years ago, what tricks did you play between me and Gu Zhiran, do you need me to remind you?"

Lin Tianlan lowered her head in frustration, she couldn't stop her tears, and said softly: "You still know... I thought that if you force Gu Zhiran away, you will belong to me after all, after all we have gone through together So much, but six years have passed, you still love her, I underestimated your feelings for her."

"I am very grateful to my uncles and aunts for helping me and my mother in the past. It is precisely because of this that I did not kill you today. I, Qiao Zhishen, have never been a kind person, especially for those who hurt my beloved. Women." Qiao Zhishen warned Lin Tianlan again.

"Why...why... I met you first, and I asked myself if I was no worse than her, why do you love her and not me?" Lin Tianlan asked unwillingly.

"There is never a reason for love. When you fall in love, you are in love." Qiao Zhishen said, "Let's go!"

The next day, Lin Tianlan took her mother on the bus back to City C. She did not accept Qiao Zhishen's last help, her remaining dignity did not allow her to do so.

Nine years ago, the scene when she and Qiao Zhishen went out to study in City A is still vivid in my memory. At that time, she was very happy, not because she was able to study in a middle school, but because she was able to be with Qiao Zhishen.

But fate changed on their first day of school, she was assigned to the first class, and Qiao Zhishen was assigned to Gu Zhiran's class, became Gu Zhiran's deskmate, and fell in love with Gu Zhiran ever since.

She was extremely jealous and even hated Gu Zhiran in her heart, because she stole Qiao Zhishen away. When she learned that the two of them had agreed to travel to Nepal after graduation, she felt even more uneasy. It is estimated that after this graduation trip, they will really be together, and then she will really have no chance.

She knew that Gu Zhiran knew that Qiao Zhishen's mother had left a platinum bracelet for her future daughter-in-law, and she had seen a photo of that bracelet. She didn't have much money at the time, so she took that photo and went to a silver jewelry custom-made handicraft shop to have an identical bracelet made, and then asked Gu Zhiran out with that bracelet.

She lied to Gu Zhiran that the bracelet was given to her by Qiao Zhishen, and that she and Qiao Zhishen were already together. She told Gu Zhiran that they had known each other since childhood and had a relationship for many years. Qiao Zhishen only kept helping her because of pity for her poor grades, and told her not to mistakenly think that Qiao Zhishen liked her, let alone destroy their relationship.

She also told Gu Zhiran that she had asked Qiao Zhishen to cancel their graduation trip. In order to achieve this goal, she told Qiao Zhishen that her mother had suddenly fallen ill and asked him to go back to city c with her. Qiao Zhishen has always been grateful to her mother, and agreed without thinking about it. When he left in a hurry, Qiao Zhishen sent Gu Zhiran a message, simply saying that the trip to Nepal was cancelled, and he had something to do at home.

At that time, she thought that her lie would be exposed, but she bet that Gu Zhiran's proud self-esteem would never let her become someone else's third party, and she should have cut off contact with Qiao Zhishen from then on.

In the end, she won the bet, and Gu Zhiran went to England, where she stayed for six years. But she still lost in the end, lost to the love between them.

………

Gu Zhiran was called by Mrs. Zhang to have dinner the next day, so of course she couldn't refuse. She was not used to using a driver in and out, so after walking for a while, she boarded the bus and headed to the old city.

Everything is good where the rich live, but public transportation is inconvenient, but in fact, how many people like her like to take the bus!

The mood of coming back this time is quite different from the last time. Gu Zhiran felt extremely relaxed even sitting on the bus. The bus drove slowly from the outskirts of the city, took many detours, and headed to the old city. There are many new buildings and roads along the way, Gu Zhiran is a little excited to compare the changes in City A with those six years ago.

Gu Zhiran had a long sleep today, so it was already noon when he arrived at Mrs. Zhang's house. Knowing in advance that she would come over for dinner today, Mrs. Zhang asked Aunt Qiong to go to the market to buy fresh ingredients early in the morning, and specially made a few dishes that she liked.

I didn't have breakfast this morning and I'm hungry now. Gu Zhiran wasn't too polite, she started eating as soon as the food was served. Seeing her appetite so good, the old lady Zhang felt happy: "Of course, you should eat like this, eat whatever you want, eat as much as you want, and stop thinking about losing weight in the future. Hurt your body!"

Hearing what Mrs. Zhang said, Gu Zhiran was embarrassed: "Grandma, can I eat that much?" She suddenly thought that since yesterday, she has started eating in an unprecedented state. It's all because their aunt is so good at cooking, and the family specially accommodates her, preparing all the meals she likes, and she is a foodie who has lost her confidence in front of gourmet food.

If this continues, she will become a big fat girl, probably much fatter than the slightly fat girl in high school. Just thinking about it like this is already scary, Gu Zhiran's appetite seemed to have calmed down just now.

"Of course, why don't you eat?" Mrs. Zhang slowed down significantly when she saw her.

"I ate too fast just now, and now I feel a little full." No matter what, Gu Zhiran couldn't tell the old lady what she really thought.

"If you are full, don't eat it, so as not to make your stomach feel uncomfortable later. I asked Aqiong to make chicken soup for you. Take your time and remember to drink it later. You need to nourish your body so that your complexion will look good." Mr. Zhang While instructing, the wife raised her hand to touch Gu Zhiran's small face, and then said with a look of reluctance: "Of course, when you grow up, grandma won't let go when you think of the day you are going to get married."

"Grandma, why did you drag it so far! I don't even have a boyfriend. Since grandma hates me so much, I won't marry and I will be with you every day." Gu Zhiran hugged the old lady Zhang's arm and acted like a baby.

"That can't be done, that's right, of course, I have found someone for you, you can go and have a look when you have time. He is the grandson of my old sister, with good character, family background, and appearance." Speaking of Mrs. Zhang looked happy about this matter.

Hearing what old lady Zhang said, Gu Zhiran's face froze. Sure enough, Ms. Zhang Siqing didn't joke with her, and grandma really looked for a blind date for her. Although she said she wanted to start over, she didn't want to find a boyfriend so soon, "Grandma... I just came back from London and haven't enjoyed enough life in City A yet, why are you so anxious to find a boyfriend for me?" ?" Gu Zhiran tried to stop old lady Zhang from thinking.

"These are two different things, you ghost, don't try to fool me this time." The old lady Zhang looked unmoved, and then winked at Aunt Qiong.

Aunt Qiong understood and knew that the old lady had something to say to Gu Zhiran, so she took the opportunity to leave: "Talk first, I'll go to the kitchen to look at the stew, and I'll serve it later." Then she got up and left.

When Aunt Qiong walked into the kitchen, the old lady Zhang grabbed Gu Zhiran's hand, patted the back of her hand, and then said earnestly: "Of course, grandma knows that you have been thinking about someone all these years. The person is the man who called you in the nursing home last time."

Gu Zhiran looked at the old lady Zhang with a face full of shock, and stammered for a while, "...Grandma...how did you know?"

Old lady Zhang smiled slightly, "Although grandma's eyes are blurred, she has a bright heart. When you were in high school, you liked to take a photo with a boy and look at it in the garden. What people say, your expression has already betrayed you. No need to ask, I also know that you like that boy."

Gu Zhiran remembered, it was a photo of her traveling with Qiao Zhishen's sophomore class. We used to see each other every day at school, and we would go home when we were on vacation. She missed him very much, so I often took their group photo to look at. Qiao Zhishen didn't like taking pictures, that was the only photo they had together, but when she left City A six years ago, she tore it up and threw it away.

Gu Zhiran scratched her hair in embarrassment, unexpectedly her grandmother had already discovered her carelessness.

"Stupid boy, there's nothing to be shy about. It's perfectly normal for young people to have admiration. Even if you fell in love early in high school, as long as you two like each other, grandma will definitely support you." Mrs. Zhang Shun Shun's hair was messed up by Gu Zhiran.

Gu Zhiran was surprised by the avant-garde remarks of the old lady Zhang, and looked at the old lady with wide eyes.

"You don't need to look at me, your grandma, with such surprised eyes. I'm not that old-fashioned, and I was young. As I said just now, if you like each other, grandma will support whatever you say, but, Since that person already has a fiancée, you should stop thinking about others." Mrs. Zhang said all she wanted to say in one breath.

"Don't think blind date is old-fashioned, you can't find someone you like. I just let you have a look, not that you must marry him. If both of you are suitable, then you can develop and try. If it's not suitable, then you should know more friends, grandma will never force you. Don't forget, your grandpa and I met on a blind date, so we will have a good life in this life." Mrs. Zhang said with affection Persuade with reason.

Old lady Zhang has already talked about this point, Gu Zhiran knew that he could not agree, so he could only compromise: "Okay! Grandma, just watch the arrangement."
