The Group Food Festival and Baihua Valley Maker Fair were a huge success, attracting tourists that led to a boom in the 45th Street to the south.

From morning to night, the crowds surged.

The closing of Joy City was silent and did not cause any splash, as if the mall itself had no meaning of existence.

At the same time, during the period of closure, a large number of tenants began to withdraw from Joy City, which caused the rents of shops near Baihua Valley to rise wildly. In a blink of an eye, the prices rose to sky-high prices, but it was still difficult to find a tenant.

When Gu Ming did this, he did not ask Zhou Xiaoyao for his opinion.

She found out about it after seeing the hot discussions in the news and Zhong Wenjing's chatter, so she was a little dazed the whole morning.

She probably didn't think about revenge or anything.

Just like every time she was left behind, she would subconsciously feel that she was unlovable.

"Why do I feel so tired when I wake up this morning?"

"Brother, I don't hate them."

"But I hate them. Every time I see you being so well behaved, I get so mad at you."

Gu Ming pinched her cheek and said something softly.

He still remembered Zhou Xiaoyao saying that he really wanted to go to the amusement park, but was thrown into the huge crowd and was warned not to run around, so he stood and waited for a whole day. He looked like he had done something wrong.

Those who are hurt are generous enough to tolerate them, but those who love them are not so generous.

Zhou Xiaoyao couldn't help but narrow her eyes when she heard him say that she was a good kid: "I'm actually the most naughty one."

"Then if I throw you in front of your stepmother now, do you dare to be naughty?"

"dare."

"I mean it's just you and your stepmother, I'm not here."

Zhou Xiaoyao stared at Gu Ming blankly, and finally couldn't help curling up, wondering why the big bear was like a living devil.

Gu Ming stood up and stretched: "Your stepmother is the shadow of your childhood. Even though you are Mrs. Gu now, you still feel scared when you think of her. This is a normal reaction. Therefore, I must become the shadow of your stepmother."

"Ow."

"xxxx you are Mrs. Gu now xxxxx"

Zhou Xiaoyao heard this and nodded seriously.

However, her expression was still a little wilted, and she was probably still worried about her biological father in her heart.

Gu Ming coaxed her for a long time and felt that her emotions seemed to have become a little sensitive recently. He didn't know what was going on.

So Boss Jiang called a car from the branch station and planned to take her to a newly opened resort town for a tour.

October is the eve of autumn. The temperature is still a little high, but the wind is cool. The car drove towards Fangshan on Route 1, crossed a long national highway, passed the lush winding mountain road, and gradually approached the destination.

Thousands of meters ahead, antique buildings stretch endlessly, with the pedestrian street in the middle as the center, entrenched at the foot of the mountain. When the wind blows, the old green of the mountain rustles.

In the distance is a section of the Great Wall.

The marketing of this town has always been good. It is said that you can see the starry sky under the Great Wall at night. The road show of "Let the Bullets Fly" seems to have been held here.

Zhou Xiaoyao wore a skirt similar to a JK uniform, a black shirt and a black and purple plaid skirt, with a tie on her chest in the same color as the skirt.

Her slender and long legs were wrapped in semi-transparent black stockings and shiny black leather shoes, making her look like a rebellious high school girl. She lay on the window all the way, her eyes lively, her long hair flying in the wind, and her mood was obviously high again.

Gu Ming may not have much experience in coaxing girls, but he is very professional in coaxing rich women.

There is nothing else to say, just one word: slip away.

Gu Ming looked at Zhou Xiaoyao's shining eyes with a slight smile on his face. Then he suddenly felt his cell phone vibrate. He opened it and saw that it was a call from his aunt.

"Zhou Shirong claimed to be ill and did not return to Shanghai. No one knows where he went."

"When did this happen?"

"On the day Joy City closed down for rectification, the board of directors and company executives are now looking for him. Feng is about to be in chaos. Many investors want him to give an explanation. Your uncle called him and said he wanted to calm down. Jing doesn’t say where he is.”

Gu Ming pursed his lips, feeling speechless about his father-in-law.

After Qin Jingqiu finished speaking, she began to care about her niece again: "Where's Xiaoyao?"

"I feel a little down, so I took her out to play. Where is auntie, how is the Wanshanghui project?"

"I have landed in Shenzhen now and am on my way to Wanshanghui. The opening ceremony will be held next Friday. Come over if you are free."

Gu Ming agreed, and in his heart he couldn't help but mourn for his villain father-in-law.

Wanshanghui in Shenzhen took two years to build, and it has gathered almost all the hottest first-tier brands and luxury stores from home and abroad. Shops are hard to find, and the surrounding supporting office buildings and residential buildings are sold out as soon as they are launched.

In this comparison, the closure of Joy City for rectification seems even more ridiculous.

"Mr. Gu, Madam, we are here."

"..."

It was just past 1 o'clock in the afternoon when we arrived at the town. The branch station was going to notify the company that runs the town to come and receive us, but Gu Ming refused.

He came here to play with the little rich woman, so it would be meaningless if he was hugged from behind.

Walking up the asphalt road, Gu Ming, wearing sunglasses and a mask, held the hand of his rich wife and entered the best hotel in the town.

There are also disadvantages to not notifying the reception. For example, right now, because it is the Golden Week, there are too many tourists, and the check-out time at noon has not yet come, so there are no rooms available.

Fortunately, the lobby of this hotel is large enough and equipped with countless sofas. Coffee, milk tea and lunch boxes are sold around it. The huge corridor also has various check-in points of the town, which makes the wait not so unbearable.

Zhou Xiaoyao took the town's tourist brochure and looked at it carefully. He had already decided where to go.

Gu Ming "accidentally" took off her leather shoes and started playing with her soft and fragrant black silk feet. In the end, he got so excited that he wanted to penetrate someone.

Investors all know that this can only happen 0 times and countless times.

"Brother, let's go play here at noon."

"What is this place?"

"There are performances on the small town stage, and then we go to the noodle shop next to it to eat."

Zhou Xiaoyao pointed at the tour brochure, then raised her little face and asked Gu Ming for his opinion.

Gu Ming picked up the manual, took a look at it, and analyzed it carefully: "I don't think you have a chance to escape from the room at noon."

"?"

The rich young woman narrowed her eyes and kicked around.

But Boss Gu always keeps his word. After checking in, he went in reluctantly and didn't come out until the afternoon.

Zhou Xiaoyao was crying so hard that she was dumbfounded. She thought Gu Ming brought her here to play, but she didn't expect that he was here to play with her.

The jk skirt and some torn stockings were scattered all over the floor, and the whole bed was a mess, as if someone had a fight in the room.

In the era of Friendship 3.0, Zhou Xiaoyao dared to call his husband only secretly, and she didn't dare to call him too often, for fear that her unfriendliness would be exposed and she would not be able to deceive the fool, but this afternoon seemed like she had called him husband for the rest of her life.

"Brother, I'm hungry..."

"Bad guy, I'm hungry..."

"Husband, I'm hungry..."

In the afternoon, the weather became much cooler. Feng Nanshu gently rocked Gu Ming, and he whimpered a little.

So Gu Ming took Zhou Xiaoyao out to eat and took a stroll along the way.

The rich girl who was crying just now is now full of energy, while I, who was unreasonable, feel as if I have been hollowed out.

Gu Ming chased Dai who was running around the town with his family, passing through the corridors and alleys, river banks and piers, and saw the big white geese in the lake and the waterwheel that couldn't turn.

Finally, the two stopped in front of a huge tree, looked up at the tree covered with red ribbons and signs with people's names written on them, and both fell silent.

Gu Ming had said before that there are always such trees in every scenic spot.

"Gu Ming, good friend tree."

"?"

Gu Ming looked at the little rich woman and asked, "Have you been lying to me for a long time?"

Zhou Xiaoyao's eyes started to look around and he remained silent despite the questions.

There is a farm house in Jinan, where the 208 team went for their first team building. At that time, the rich lady asked him what this was, and Zhou Xiaoyao said it was a good friend tree, so she insisted on hanging one.

At that time, friendship could only be about playing with one's feet, but now it's better, and all the body has been deceived.

"Tell a good friend about this and go eat."

"Ow."

Zhou Xiaoyao was like a cute tiger. He roared once and then ran to buy the marriage card. Then he hung the card up neatly. He was completely different from the one who fell down from the tree last time.

Gu Ming was stunned for a long time, thinking to himself, is this how you acted towards me last time?

Zhou Xiaoyao walked back from the marriage tree: "Let's go and have dinner."

"..."

The commercial street and the hotel street are separated by a pedestrian path, forming an O-shape as a whole. In fact, the whole street is on the bridge, and there are all kinds of delicious food.

Zhou Xiaoyao stuck to Gu Ming and walked forward. When asked what she wanted to eat, she always shook her head.

When the two of them were fighting at noon, she started to say she was hungry, but when she really saw the things sold on the street, she didn't want to eat them at all.

In the middle of Qiaotou, there is a store that sells stir-fries, and its signature dish is braised pork. Because it was so crowded with tourists, the stalls were set up on the roadside.

Zhou Xiaoyao walked past them and suddenly frowned, as if she was very uncomfortable. She felt a little nauseous for a moment, so she quickly let go of Gu Ming's hand and ran to the flowers in front.

"..."

Seeing this scene, Gu Ming was stunned for a long time, and then his heart suddenly trembled with a "bang".

The town has a complete range of businesses. Across the street from the hotel is a pharmacy. Zhou Xiaoyao was led in by Jiang Qin and saw him take an early pregnancy test stick from the shelf.

Half an hour later, in the hotel room, Gu Ming was standing at the bathroom door, looking extremely solemn.

Finally, the door was pushed open a little, and a testing stick was quietly handed out. There were two red lines, one light and one dark, on it, revealing Zhou Xiaoyao's somewhat cute little face.

I got my best friend of my life pregnant...

Gu Ming held his breath. Although he had been expecting this for a long time, he still felt a little panicked at this moment.
