Chapter 319
I met Zhou Hanzhi's eyes that showed no surprise or astonishment, and my heart was a little flustered.
Shen Hualan was so surprised to see me appear in Zhang's house, so why was Zhou Hanzhi so calm and natural when he saw me?
It was as if he had predicted that I would appear in the Zhang family.
In other words, he had already known about my visit to the Zhang family.
I instantly thought of the time when Zhang Tingyuan and I saw Zhou Hanzhi's car at the gate of the community in the morning, and I was shocked again. Could it be that Zhou Hanzhi saw Zhang Tingyuan and me at that time, so he followed the path and found the Zhang family?
However, as soon as this guess came up, I cut it off.
how can that be possible?
At that time, Zhang Tingyuan and I were both wearing masks and scarves, so it was not easy to be recognized. Moreover, when Zhang Tingyuan recognized Zhou Hanzhi's car, Zhou Hanzhi's car did not stop, but went directly into the underground garage. It was obvious that he did not recognize us.
Moreover, Zhou Hanzhi went to our community today to look for his beloved Lin Xixi. He probably didn't find her, so he accompanied Shen Hualan to Zhang's house.
There is absolutely no way he would abandon his beloved one and follow us to the Zhang family just because of me.
The reason why he was not surprised to see me was mainly because he had long known that Madam Zhang Si and I got along well. At the same time, I also had a good relationship with Yuan Tianye and Zhang Tingyuan, so it was normal for me to appear in the Zhang family.
It seems to be a coincidence.
As long as it's just a coincidence, I won't worry about it.
"It's just to help arrange a beautician. It's not a difficult task. Madam Zhou and Young Master Zhou are too polite. It's a bit polite." Compared with the cold and distant Madam Zhang Si, Mr. Zhang was very enthusiastic towards Zhou Hanzhi and Shen Hualan. "Our two families are old friends. When Wen Jian was alive, we often drank together. When you come, just treat this place as your own home. Don't be shy."
Zhou Wenjian is Zhou Hanzhi's father. When Zhou Wenjian was alive, Shen Hualan had never entered the Zhou family. Zhou Hanzhi was not the eldest son of the Zhou family at that time. What does the friendship between the Zhou and Zhang families have to do with these two people?
But I can understand Mr. Zhang's enthusiasm. Although Zhou Hanzhi is a young master who joined the family late, he has amazing abilities and unique investment vision. He founded Rongyu in just two years and brought the Zhou family to new heights. Now that the Zhang family is in decline, Mr. Zhang naturally wants to please and win over Zhou Hanzhi, this rising star, and arrange more cooperation between the two families to keep the Zhang family from falling behind.
Therefore, your own strength determines others' attitude towards you.
Everyone had already come in, and they were brought in by Mr. Zhang himself. Although Mrs. Zhang Si had a look of dismay on her face, she still arranged seats for a few people.
Suddenly, there were a few more people, and the originally spacious tea table became crowded. The servants brought two chairs. Shen Hualan sat next to Madam Zhang Si, but Zhou Hanzhi squeezed in next to me, and Master Zhang sat down on the seat on the other side of Zhou Hanzhi.
The moment Zhou Hanzhi squeezed in beside me, I frowned, feeling that it was inappropriate, but this was at the Zhang family, so I couldn't say much.
Yuan Tianye was also very dissatisfied. In fact, he was in a bad mood from the moment Zhou Hanzhi arrived: "What a spoiler! It was supposed to be a happy day, but why is this plague god here again? It's really annoying."
Ever since the last time I was pushed down the stairs because of Lin Xixi's misunderstanding because of Zhou Hanzhi, Zhou Hanzhi has been given a new title in Yuan Tianye's mouth, "Plague God".
Yuan Tianye looked at Zhou Hanzhi who was sitting next to me and immediately stood up: "Sister, can I change seats with you? This side is farther from the door and warmer."
In fact, it was not cold at all in this warm room, but a little hot. We all took off our coats and sat there. We didn’t care whether we were far or close to the door because it was equally warm.
I knew in my heart that Yuan Tianye saw that I was reluctant to sit with Zhou Hanzhi, so he deliberately found an excuse to separate us.
But I was happy with it and readily changed places with him.
In this way, I sat between Yuan Tianye and Zhang Tingyuan.
Zhang Tingyuan was the happiest about this change. He looked at me and Yuan Tianye happily as they exchanged seats, and quickly piled a plate of snacks in front of me: "Sister Meng, drinking tea alone can easily make you drunk. Eat some snacks. These are my favorites. Come and try them. Do you like them?"
Just as I was about to speak, I felt a burning gaze falling on me. When I raised my head, I met Zhou Hanzhi's dark eyes.
It's really strange. He was fine just now, but the way he stared at me now was like a flame, burning me.
I didn’t want to get burned, so I immediately looked away and continued to appreciate the performance of the two chefs on the stage, and picked up a piece of snack and ate it slowly.
At this time, the Suzhou Pingtan was still going on on the stage, but Mr. Zhang had already taken the initiative to talk to Zhou Hanzhi about business matters, and the lyrics of the two masters on the stage were a little unclear.
At this time, another person spoke.
Shen Hualan, who was sitting next to Madam Zhang Si, looked at me with a smile: "I just heard from the servant that Madam Si was meeting a guest. I didn't expect that Madam Si's guest was Xuxu. But Xuxu is indeed very capable. Han Zhi's previous investment in her project has become a big hit. Does Madam Si also intend to invest in their project?"
She didn't misunderstand anything else. She thought that Mrs. Zhang Si was interested in my company's project and wanted to invest, so she invited me to her house.
But in fact, there is no interest relationship between Madam Zhang Si and me.
Mrs. Zhang Si really spoke in a calm tone: "Xuxu is indeed beautiful and talented, but I invited Xuxu to my house not for the project, but simply because I like her and want to meet her."
After that, she handed a peeled orange to Zhang Tingyuan and said, "This is for you, Sister Meng."
"Mom, you love Sister Meng more than you love me. In the past, you only helped me peel oranges." Zhang Tingyuan took the orange and made a sour expression, "Sure enough, my son is not favored now."
Not only was the orange peeled, but even the white fluff on the flesh was peeled off cleanly. However, Mrs. Zhang Si was still worried that her fingers would dirty the orange, so she used the orange peel to support the orange.
That's very thoughtful.
Mrs. Zhang Si really loves me and even peeled an orange for me.
I was touched, but I pushed the orange back to Zhang Tingyuan: "You eat it."
"Sister Meng, are you embarrassed?" Zhang Tingyuan saw through my thoughts and smiled as he pushed the orange towards my mouth. "Don't be embarrassed, I was just joking just now. But sister, if you really feel embarrassed, why don't you fulfill my mother's wish and enter our Zhang family?"
"What!"
