However, Gu Qingshi's reaction still aroused Zhong Jiaguo's suspicion.
Although he had not met Gu Qingshi several times, he also knew that she was a gentle and polite girl who rarely showed her true inner emotions.
How can this girl be so anxious...
Could it be that this matter has something to do with Gu Nantian?
Drooping his eyelids, Zhong Jiaguo pondered for a moment, then suddenly laughed loudly.
"Hahahaha, Qingshi, what you said is too serious!"
Patting Gu Qingshi's hand with his withered palm, he shook his head and continued: "There is no need for rent or anything like that. The Zhong family is not short of that money."
"But... Qingshi, if you are willing to promise me something, I can't lend you the jade box!"
"What's up?"
Gu Qingshi asked eagerly.
But Zhong Jiaguo smiled and shook his head, and said calmly: "I haven't thought about it yet. Let me think about it later, old man!"
"That jade box..."
"Since I have already said that I will borrow it, I will naturally not break my promise!"
Turning to look at Zhong Tiancheng, he raised his head slightly.
"Tian Cheng, you know where the jade box is. Go take it out and give it to Qing Shi."
"Grandpa, do you really want to borrow it?"
Zhong Tiancheng showed a little embarrassment on his face.
With a sharp look on his face, Zhong Jiaguo snorted displeasedly: "What? You think I'm old and you don't even listen to my words?"
Zhong Tiancheng shook his head in panic when he heard this.
"No, no, no, I'll get it right now!"
After he finished speaking, he quickly left, and Zhong Jiaguo looked at Lu Qingshi with a smile again.
"I only have one request, the jade box must not be damaged!"
"Please rest assured, Mr. Zhong!"
Gu Qingshi stood up as he spoke and wanted to bow to Zhong Jiaguo, but was stopped by Zhong Jiaguo.
"Hey~ What are you doing, kid?"
After giving Lu Qingshi a reproachful look, Zhong Jiaguo pulled her to sit down again and chatted with her with a smile.
An Xiaoyun narrowed her eyes and looked at Zhong Jiaguo, then quietly moved her buttocks next to Su Chen, and whispered in a low voice: "I always feel that this old man from the Zhong family has a lot of bad intentions!"
"Well, you feel that right." Su Chen chuckled and whispered in the same low voice: "He and Zhong Tiancheng were acting just now, deliberately showing reluctance, hoping to make Qing Shi appreciate them more."
"Damn! I'm telling you, the more I look at them, the more something is wrong with them!" An Xiaoyun pouted angrily.
Su Chen glanced at her, stretched out his hand and pinched her slightly pouted mouth.
"You are Miss An's family. You lean on each other with your mouth open and shut. Who do you want to lean on?"
"You, can you?"
An Xiaoyun chuckled, her eyes sly.
Seeing that this little girl dared to tease him, Su Chen chuckled and put his arms around her waist.
"Okay, where do you want the room to be?"
An Xiaoyun became a little panicked when she saw that Su Chen didn't seem to be joking.
She quickly pulled Su Chen's hand away, quickly moved her butt to the side, and playfully stuck out her tongue at Su Chen.
"Hmph! You think so beautifully!"
Noticing the faint blush on her cheeks, Su Chen chuckled, but did not continue to tease her.
The interaction between the two did not escape Zhong Jiaguo's sight.
After discovering that An Xiaoyun was so close to a driver, Zhong Jiaguo looked at Su Chen a little deeper.
At this moment, Zhong Tiancheng brought over a rosewood box and carefully handed it to Lu Qingshi.
The wooden box was opened, and the jade box that was properly placed inside was revealed to everyone.
The milky white jade is really like mutton fat, with a delicate and moist texture. The whole body is milky white without any trace of color.
Gu Qingshi looked back at Su Chen, wanting to confirm with Su Chen whether the jade box was suitable.
Su Chen just glanced at it and nodded lightly.
After confirming that there was nothing wrong with the jade box, Gu Qingshi carefully closed the wooden box again, and then thanked Zhong Jiaguo again.
Because time was urgent, they did not stay long and quickly left Zhong's house with the wooden box.
After they were sent away, Zhong Jiaguo said to Zhong Tiancheng in a calm tone: "Go and check Gu Nantian's situation, confirm whether he is still in the North, and then check the boy named Su Chen to see where he comes from. !”
"Grandpa, is it necessary to check the driver?"
Zhong Tiancheng was a little puzzled.
Investigating Gu Nantian, he knew why Gu Qingshi was so eager. The matter must be related to Gu Nantian.
But what is the need for a driver to check?
"Hmph, if he was just an ordinary driver, would he become friends with Lu Qingshi and An Xiaoyun?"
"Do you really think that Gu Qingshi and An Xiaoyun are fools who are easily fooled?"
"I see……"
Zhong Tiancheng's expression darkened, and he quickly turned around and left.
Zhong Jiaguo stared at the lake for a few more seconds, and a chill that was enough to make people feel chilly appeared on his kind face.
After leaving Zhong's house, Su Chen and the other three returned to the hospital as quickly as possible.
Before leaving, Su Chen prepared to give Gu Nantian another injection.
At this moment, Lu Zhaoan also walked into the ward with the elite team transferred from the northern border.
"Miss, I have brought you the people, and they will accompany you to the Western Regions later!"
"Um."
Gu Qingshi nodded and glanced briefly at these people.
The leader of the team is a lone wolf, and she knows his strength.
As for the others, since it was Lu Zhaoan who found them, their strength will definitely be good.
An Xiaoyun yawned disapprovingly at this time, held her cheek and muttered: "Why are you bringing so many people? More people will make you more conspicuous."
"I think it's enough to have Su Chen by my side. Su Chen is much stronger than them!"
The members of the elite team, who had lowered their eyebrows and lowered their heads obediently, raised their heads after hearing this and looked at An Xiaoyun with frowns.
The lone wolf standing aside couldn't help but have a headache, and secretly thought to himself that this little princess of the An family is really good at making fire!
Those who hang out in military camps, especially those in northern military camps, are those with a stubborn temper who refuse to admit defeat.
What An Xiaoyun said was the greatest insult to them.
Lu Zhaoan also frowned and turned to look at Su Chen who was giving Gu Nantian acupuncture.
"Is Mr. Su very skilled?"
An Xiaoyun nodded happily when she heard this: "That's pretty good! If you don't believe me, just ask the guy over there!"
She raised her chin to signal the lone wolf, snickering in her heart.
In fact, she sneaked Lone Wolf out at this time with the intention of helping Su Chen vent his anger.
Who asked this guy to provoke Su Chen in the first place!
That is to say, she hadn't arrived at Jianghai at that time, otherwise she would have helped Su Chen scold Lone Wolf!
Lone Wolf's scalp twitched, and he felt as if his whole body was instantly placed on a grill, making a sizzling sound.
"Lone Wolf, what's going on?"
Lu Zhaoan looked at Lone Wolf curiously.
Opening his mouth, Lone Wolf was really embarrassed to tell him that he had provoked Su Chen and was beaten badly by Su Chen.
In the end, An Xiaoyun kindly explained to him: "He was beaten badly by Su Chen and had to recuperate for a long time. During that time, Su Chen was always protecting Qing Shi!"
"Is there such a thing? Is this how you protect the young lady?"
Lu Zhaoan raised his eyebrows dangerously upon hearing this.
Lone Wolf lowered his head with tears in his eyes and began to secretly dislike An Xiaoyun for speaking too quickly.
Why don't you tell me how badly your brother was beaten at this time?
