Gu Qingzhou calmed down.

Huo Yujing just went to the small dressing room next to her to try on a fur coat. When she came out, it was calm outside. She still asked, "What happened just now?"

"Nothing, just met Mrs. Dong."

"Which Mrs. Dong?" Huo Yuanjing asked, "Dong Jinxuan's wife?"

"Yes."

Mrs. Dong lost her two sons, one was shot to death by Simu for kidnapping Gu Qingzhou, and the other was ordered to be shot by Zhang Longtou of Longmen for killing Zhang Xinmei.

As a result, Mrs. Dong did not go to the bottom of it, but she vented her resentment on Gu Qingzhou.

Gu Qingzhou faced her frankly.

"Dong Jinxuan, I'm afraid I won't be able to keep him." Huo Zunjing said, "You should tell the Overseer."

"The Overseer is clear, and Si Xingpei's people have successfully entered the high-level navy. After the new year, the Overseer will probably replace Dong Jinxuan with his tenure and hard work." Gu Qingzhou said.

This is her guess.

Dong Jinxuan's tenure, even after a new year, is only two years.

The normal term of office is every three years.

If you want to replace him in the first month, it depends on the meaning of the commander-in-chief.

It's just that Gu Qingzhou and Si Xingpei plan to disclose their own affairs in the first month. At that time, the commander-in-chief, who is extremely angry, probably won't be able to think of anything else.

"...It will be sooner or later to replace him." Gu Qingzhou said.

Then, they went shopping again.

After buying the clothes, shoes and socks, the manager will send the boys to the new houses of Huo Mansion and Company Mansion in person.

Gu Qingzhou and Huo Zhujing were light-hearted and played everywhere again.

In the middle of the afternoon, Gu Qingzhou felt a little tired, just passing by an abandoned garden, Gu Qingzhou suggested to go down for a walk.

There is a bench outside the garden.

After wiping it clean, Huo Yujing sat down first, and then took out the cigarette.

"Do you want it?" she asked Gu Qingzhou.

Gu Qingzhou took it.

She just lit and didn't smoke much.

She asked Huo Yuanjing, "Why did you smoke?"

"Where do I smoke?" Huo Yuanjing said, "This box has been in my handbag for almost three months."

I only smoke when I'm in a bad mood.

She gave Gu Qingzhou a cigarette because she felt that Gu Qingzhou was in a bad mood.

"What are you worrying about?" Huo Yuanjing asked, the slender snow-white cigarette passed between her tender lips, and there was a faint smoke.

Gu Qingzhou also took a breath.

This smoke is very light, not as heavy as a cigar, she doesn't like it very much, it doesn't hurt or itch.

Gu Qingzhou stopped smoking and smelled the cigarette in his hand.

Huo Yuanjing could see that she was in a bad mood, and Gu Qingzhou really needed to talk.

The matter with Si Xingpei, the matter with Si Mu, and the Mrs. Dong she met today made her unhappy.

"...I'm very worried." Gu Qingzhou said.

She told Huo Yuanjing all the time.

Luo Shui is about to give birth, and it is not suitable for Gu Qingzhou to bother her with her own troubles. Huo Yuanjing has become the only person Gu Qingzhou can express his thoughts.

"I'm engaged to Si Xingpei." Gu Qingzhou said.

Huo Yuanjing was stunned for a moment, then leaned over to hug her, and said happily, "It's great!"

Gu Qingzhou patted her shoulder.

Huo Yuanjing asked her, "Where's the ring?"

Gu Qingzhou told Huo Yuanjing all of her embarrassment; at the same time, she also told her about Simu; finally, she talked about Mrs. Dong, who was unwilling.

Huo Yuanjing said with a smile: "Qingzhou, you are unfounded and worried, you were not like this before!"

She happily stepped on the cigarettes in their hands, pulled up Gu Qingzhou and said, "Let's go for a drink, call Luoshui and Xie Shunmin, and let Yiyuan come back from Nanjing. And my brother."

Gu Qingzhou laughed.

I have never seen Ah Jing so happy!

She was a little surprised and said with a smile, "Why are you more active than me?"

"I've always been worried about you!" Huo Yuanjing said truthfully.

Huo Yujing was worried about Gu Qingzhou and Si Xingpei, but she never said it. If it can't be solved, there is no need to talk about it and make people irritable.

Now, this matter has been resolved, Si Xingpei proposed, and everything else is trivial.

Huo Yuanjing, who was cold-hearted and warm-hearted, was very happy.

She also invited her brother Huo Yue.

At eight o'clock in the evening, everyone came, including Yan Luoshui and his wife, and Yan Yiyuan, who came back from Nanjing.

"Let's go back after playing for a while, lest Luo Shui can't hold it anymore." Gu Qingzhou said.

Yan Luoshui clapped her hand with a smile: "Don't be so careful, I'm not a piece of paper! I slept all morning and afternoon, and now I'm in good spirits!"

Gu Qingzhou and Si Xingpei are engaged, and Yan Luoshui is as happy as Huo Zuijing.

In private, they are always worried that Gu Qingzhou and Si Xingpei will not get good results.

Especially Yan Luoshui, she always didn't trust Si Xingpei very much, she always felt that Si Xingpei was playing with girls' feelings.

As everyone knows, they are really going to get married, and Si Xingpei is willing to take such a big risk and listen to so many rumors for Gu Qingzhou.

Yan Luoshui was very moved.

"Yes, everyone let go and play." Xie Shunmin also said, "Luoshui has me."

The crowd really went wild.

Gu Qingzhou accepted their congratulations.

After a few glasses of wine, her body gradually warmed up, and she said a lot.

Also laughed many times.

Nothing funny though.

"My grandmother is still in the period of filial piety, so I shouldn't drink alcohol." Gu Qingzhou said suddenly.

Yan Luoshui said: "How can there be any talk of filial piety now? Be happy, don't you always spoil things?"

Gu Qingzhou laughed.

When she came out to breathe, Huo Yue just came back from the bathroom.

Huo Yue saw her standing under the lights.

Outside the electric lamp of the restaurant, the lantern cover covering the picture of the beauty in spring shone with light red light, which dyed Gu Qingzhou's red cheeks more and more, like blooming peach cores.

She smiled at Huo Yue, revealing a mouthful of small glutinous teeth, inexplicably adding cuteness to her coquettishness.

Huo Yue walked up to her: "drinking?"

Gu Qingzhou nodded: "A little bit up."

She drinks in moderation, never allows herself to overdo it, and only drinks on happy occasions. When something sad happens, unless someone pulls her on purpose, she won't drink.

Therefore, Gu Qingzhou is very clear about his alcohol intake.

When she was about to get drunk, she stopped and stood in the corridor to blow air.

It's winter, and the horned branches of the courtyard are rustling in the night wind.

The winter in Yuecheng is wet and cold, and the wind also carries a damp chill.

"Drink less." Huo Yue said.

After all, he stood beside Gu Qingzhou.

He congratulated Gu Qingzhou and Si Xingpei on their engagement: "It's not easy for you both."

Gu Qingzhou smiled.

She remembered something and asked Huo Yue, "Master Huo, I have something to ask you."

Huo Yue nodded and asked her what she wanted to know: "You tell me, I know everything."

Gu Qingzhou bit his lower lip.

She slowly organized her words, because it was not so easy to say.

"...It's Sim." Gu Qingzhou said, "Some of his behaviors make me very confused."

"What behavior?" Huo Yue cheered up and tried to solve problems for Gu Qingzhou as much as possible.
