The favorite of the wealthy group: Gu Shao has a soft spot

Looking at Zhong Zong's confusion, Zhong Shengyun said nothing with a sullen face.

The father and son stared at each other for more than ten seconds with a distance of three to five meters.

Originally, Zhong Shengyun was still feeling sorry for his son, lamenting that he had more than enough heart but not enough energy.

The fact that Zhong Zong appeared at this time undoubtedly aggravated his worries.

Seeing the two of them looking at each other speechlessly, Gu Yanze took the initiative to break the silence in the box, and looked deeply at Zhong Zong, whose face was tense.

"Mr. Zhong, come in first. If you have anything to say, let's sit down and talk." Gu Yanze's lips curled up into a smile, his face was full of bad taste.

Zhong Zong woke up from the daze, and instantly realized that he had been fooled.

Even though Gu Yanze didn't say it outright, the reason for Zhong Shengyun's inexplicable appearance at the dinner that belonged to them seemed obvious.

Zhong Zong didn't listen to his wishes, he just turned around and closed the door, still standing at the door of the box.

At this time, Zhong Shengyun thought that his son was out of a guilty conscience, and suddenly an unknown fire surged in his heart.

He got up abruptly, moved his body away from the dining table, and faced Zhong Zong and scolded him sharply: "Are you dying, kid? You ran to the wine table as soon as you got out of the hospital, do you want to piss Dad off?"

Hearing his father's accusation, Zhong Zong became more aware now that it was Gu Yanze who was behind the scenes and let Zhong Shengyun catch him.

There is one thing that he can't figure out, what is Gu Yanze trying to do by doing this?
With doubts in his heart, Zhong Zong said calmly: "Dad, don't get excited, I don't need to drink when I'm out to socialize!"

The fact is also true, under Zhou Mu'an's persuasion both hard and soft, he has indeed not drunk a drop of alcohol since he was hospitalized.

Unfortunately, right now in front of his father, he doesn't seem to be able to prove his innocence.

Zhong Shengyun snorted coldly, as if he was both ridiculous and disappointed by his son's clumsy lie on the spot.

"Do you believe me if you don't drink it? Don't forget that I am your father!" Zhong Shengyun's tone was very annoyed.

Just at this moment, the waiter knocked on the door outside, Zhong Zong angrily turned sideways to make way.

But he didn't expect that besides appetizers, there was also a bottle of wine on the waiter's tray, the slender wine bottle was particularly conspicuous.

After putting down the appetizers and wine, the waiter asked with a smile, "Sir, do you need me to pour wine for you?"

Hearing the sound, Zhong Zong's face turned green on the spot, knowing that it would be even more difficult to explain clearly.

"No need, you go out." Gu Yanze instructed pretending to be serious.

Seeing that the father and son were about to meet in battle, he actually started laughing wildly in his heart.

Concentrating slightly, he broke the silence with a dry cough, and said in a tactful way: "Uncle, today I asked Zhong Zong to discuss business. As for this bottle of wine, I prepared it for you. I want to have a drink with you. Please do Do not misunderstand."

Hearing that Gu Yanze was still pretending to be a good person, Zhong Zong could only squeeze his heart to death.

Zhong Zong secretly blamed himself for not trusting this fox, and fell into his trick if he was not careful.

Seeing that Gu Yanze was trying to smooth things over, Zhong Shengyun couldn't keep admonishing his son in front of him, so he restrained his anger.

"Hehe, so that's what happened, so I'll just drink a little. I haven't drank domestic wine for some days, and I really miss it."

Zhong Shengyun was all smiles, on the surface he was perfunctory to Gu Yanze.

He ignored his son who was still standing, took the initiative to pour two glasses of wine, and gently pushed one of them in front of Gu Yanze.

"Uncle will offer you a toast before eating, thank you for cleaning me up!"

Zhong Shengyun greeted politely, put his mouth on the small wine cup and drank it down in one gulp.

Gu Yanze narrowed his eyes slightly, and said with a half-smile: "Uncle is too polite, this is what we juniors should do."

As he finished speaking, he put down his glass after finishing the wine, came to Zhong Zong's side and dragged him to the dining table.

The three of them finally took their seats. Zhong Shengyun glanced coldly at his son's gloomy face, and asked in a deep voice, "Why, aren't you happy when Dad said something to you?"

Zhong Zong had no expression on his face, and replied with a different meaning: "No, I know that my father is good for me, I just don't like being calculated by others."

After saying that, he let out a long breath, not to mention the uncomfortable feeling of being angry.

Zhong Shengyun seemed to understand, but looked at him suspiciously and asked, "Who plotted against you? Did something happen to the company?"

After all, Zhong Zong is still young, so as a father, he is inevitably worried.

Without waiting for Zhong Zong to speak, Gu Yanze snatched his words, which can be regarded as a lie about today's invitation.

"Don't worry, Uncle, Zhong Zong is so capable. The Zhong Corporation has developed very well recently. Last night we chatted and he said that he wanted to enter the retail industry. That's why I asked him out and gave him some useful materials."

Gu Yanze explained in a pleasant manner, without any suspiciousness at all.

Zhong Shengyun smiled knowingly, and turned polite to Gu Yanze again: "I'm really worrying about you, Zhong Zong's experience in the mall is still young, and you are so busy every day and still bother you."

The attitudes of the two were very gentle, and Zhong Shengyun's annoyance began to dissipate.

Just being offered a dish by Gu Yanze, Zhong Zong naturally wouldn't appreciate it at this moment. After the dishes were all served, he just ate alone and ignored them at all.

After a while, seeing Zhong Shengyun gradually getting drunk after drinking a few cups, Gu Yanze's true intentions were revealed, waiting for the opportunity to learn Zhong Qing's secrets from him.

He helped Zhong Shengyun fill up the wine again, and he asked in a tentative tone: "By the way, Uncle, recently Xiaoqing said that she often had nightmares and dreamed about many things in her childhood. I asked her what it was but she couldn't tell clearly. Can't you help me out?"

The question came out of nowhere, and Zhong Shengyun, who was slightly drunk, was stunned for a moment, rolled his eyes, and quickly responded with concern: "Ah Ze, does Xiaoqing have any other symptoms besides nightmares? What did she tell you?"

Aware of Zhong Shengyun's unreasonable nervousness, Gu Yanze told her seriously: "She said that she sometimes has a headache, and as for what she told me, it was all fragments, fragmented and incomplete."

Zhong Zong, who didn't speak the whole time, was attracted by the conversation between the two, put down his chopsticks and listened straight in the eye.

He was very smart, and after hearing a few sentences, he suddenly realized that Gu Yanze had tricked the father and son out of him.

After all, Zhou Muan did this in the ward two days ago, but fortunately he kept his mouth shut.

Zhong Zong's face was very gloomy, as if a dark cloud covered the top, and he stopped his father while he was drinking.

"Dad, don't drink too much alcohol. You are not in good health. I'd better send you home early to rest."

Zhong Zong said that he was going to help his father, but Zhong Shengyun was very sentimental under the catalysis of alcohol, and his mood suddenly became despondent.

"Well, it's a long story..." Zhong Shengyun dragged his voice, sighed and said vaguely: "It's not easy for Xiaoqing to survive. She is very loving, but unfortunately, as a father, I can't." Take care of her."

After finishing speaking, he shook off Zhong Zong's hand, and his voice was also stained with alcohol.

"Don't worry about Dad drinking, you will be sent to the hospital if you drink, what am I afraid of with my old bones!"

Zhong Shengyun spoke angrily, and took another sip from the wine.

"It doesn't matter, just drink it slowly."

Seeing that his father was still misunderstanding him, Zhong Zong frowned, turned around and returned to his seat.

Gu Yanze had no intention of making the two of them vindictive. Driven by curiosity, he continued to ask: "Uncle, why do you say that it is not easy for Xiaoqing to survive? Did she have any encounters when she was very young?"

After listening, the dazed Zhong Shengyun nodded affirmatively: "Yes, she was a poor child, if it wasn't for me..."

At this point, although Zhong Shengyun's mind was a little unclear, the vigilance deeply rooted in his subconscious reminded him not to slip up.

Suddenly he changed the subject, skipped the key event and expressed emotion: "People will have various experiences in this life, but fortunately Xiaoqing grew up healthy, and now I meet you again, I am already very satisfied."

Gu Yanze had already heard that Zhong Shengyun was concealing it on purpose, he first smiled slightly, and then turned his gaze to Zhong Zong.

"Zhong Zong, Uncle doesn't seem to want to tell about Xiaoqing's childhood. You are her brother, why don't you tell me?" He asked meaningfully.

Zhong Shengyun was afraid that the secrets of the Zhong family would be leaked, so when he heard that Gu Yanze had changed his target, he immediately winked at his son.

Zhong Zong despised Gu Yanze's bluff, and raised his middle finger to him in his heart.

He ignored it, and rebuffed coldly: "I don't know, don't ask me."

The lunch lasted for more than an hour. Gu Yanze saw that both father and son were tight-lipped, so he decided not to play around with pretense, and decisively let go of his disguise.

"Uncle, recently Xiaoqing suffered from amnesia and even passed out once. If you really love your daughter, please tell me the secret about her. Only in this way can she really get better and live her life safely."

Hearing this, Zhong Shengyun fell silent, his expression was very tangled, his brows were frowned, wondering if he should speak or not.

Gu Yanze was anxious in his heart, and couldn't help persuading him again: "Uncle, Xiaoqing urgently needs psychological treatment, please don't hide the truth anymore..."

Before he finished speaking, Zhong Shengyun loved his daughter eagerly, and finally chose to compromise.

"Okay, let me say!" Zhong Shengyun seemed to be fighting in his heart, and added sadly: "The reason why I concealed it is also for the sake of my little love."

Then Zhong Shengyun told the truth. It turned out that 20 years ago, when his career had just started to improve, his wife who was a tutor in a wealthy family came home suddenly and brought a little girl with her.

So far, Zhong Shengyun only knew that the child was an abandoned orphan, so he adopted her and named her Zhongqing.

Unfortunately, within a few years, his wife died in a car accident, so Zhong Qing's life experience has become a mystery.

Out of nostalgia for his wife, he cherishes and loves him very much, and completely regards this child as a continuation of his lover's life.

After telling this old story, Zhong Shengyun couldn't help crying, shook his head and sighed: "My wife was still young when she left, and Xiaoqing was lonely and helpless. At that time, she became my greatest comfort and sustenance..."

He covered his face and sobbed in a low voice, pouring out the grief that had been buried in his heart for 20 years. In addition to sadness, he also felt a sense of relief.
