Chapter 15 What on earth have you been doing for the past six years? Things have come to this point, and there is no way to keep the person, so Li Guiqin can only find a way out. "Then Qianqian, you should go quickly. Work is important, work is important..." "Sorry, Auntie, I'll treat you to a meal next time." Ding Jiaqian stood up impatiently and slung her backpack over her shoulder. At this time, Xiaoyun had also come to the table, "Hello, Mr. Ding, hello, Auntie..." Tuantuan made a half circle to greet everyone, and when his eyes fell on Zhou Hao... He was stunned for a moment, his eyes suddenly widened, and he was so surprised that he almost lost his voice: "Mr. Zhou...Mr. Zhou?!" Everyone at the table was shocked by her exaggerated reaction. Ding Jiaqian frowned in surprise, "Do you know each other?" "I know him, of course I know him!" Xiaoyun nodded desperately with a look of ecstasy, her eyes like car headlights, "The one who bought the villa in full today is Mr. Zhou!" After saying that, he no longer cared about Ding Jiaqian and looked at Zhou Hao with a flattering face.
"Mr. Zhou, so you and Engineer Ding know each other? Why didn't you tell me earlier? Otherwise, you might have been able to get a little more discount..." "Girl, wait a minute." Li Guiqin was so frightened that her face was distorted. "My ears are not working well. What did you say just now?" At this time, Ding Jiaqian also came back to her senses. She grabbed Xiaoyun's arm with a look of horror, "The person who bought the villa this afternoon... was it him?!" "Yes." Xiaoyun nodded perfunctorily, then quickly turned around and said, "Mr. Zhou, thanks to you, I can get a large performance commission this month. When can I treat you to a meal?" "Thank you, but that's okay." Zhou Hao wiped his mouth with a tissue and stood up. "Aunt Su, let's get together again when we have a chance. I'll take my mom to see the new house first." "Ah...ah, oh." Aunt Su's head was also buzzing at this moment, "You go, you go." Zhou Hao pulled Li Guiqin, whose eyes were wide open, and said, "Mom, let's go." Upon hearing this, Xiaoyun immediately said, "Yes, Auntie, it's just a little way from here, I'll take you there... Sorry, Mr. Ding, I'll take them there first." Watching the three people walk out of the cafe, Ding Jiaqian slowly sat back in her chair, her eyes empty and her expression confused as if she was doubting life. "Oh, you like to show off to others." Aunt Su suddenly sneered, "How many times have I told you to be humble, but you didn't listen to a word. Are you feeling better now?" Ding Jiaqian took a sip of the coffee foam in the cup, and her face turned red and blue, reflecting the red and green lights at the intersection outside the floor-to-ceiling window. ………… When Li Guiqin saw the luxurious townhouse with her own eyes, what she felt was not excitement and happiness, but... fear. The fear of limp hands and feet. "Girl, go in first. I have something to say to him." "Oh, okay." Xiaoyun nodded and went into the house first. Li Guiqin grabbed Zhou Hao's ear with her backhand and said, "Come here!" "Oh mom, be gentle, my ear is going to fall off." Zhou Hao gasped in pain. "You damn child, I really am..." Li Guiqin was so angry that her eyes turned red, "How many times have I told you that it doesn't matter if you are poor, but you must never go astray!"
"Even if you go out to beg for food, it's better than making those dirty money!" Zhou Hao was confused by what he said, "Mom, what are you talking about?" "You're still pretending!" Snapped! Li Guiqin slapped him on the forehead with her backhand, "I was wondering why you didn't come home for six years, and this time you came back you resigned and changed your name. So this is the root of the problem?" "There's no one else here, tell me the truth." Li Guiqin's lips turned purple, and she trembled as she said, "What on earth have you been doing for the past six years?!" "Mom, I really am going to teach..." Snapped! "Are you still lying to me?!" Li Guiqin's eyes turned red. "Who can make a fortune by teaching in rural areas? Do you think I have Alzheimer's disease?" "Mom, I didn't say that this money was earned from teaching... Stop hitting me, can you please listen to me first?" After he briefly explained the source of his wealth, Li Guiqin's face looked a little better, but she was still a little unbelievable, "You can make so much money by writing a novel? You are not lying to me, are you?" "Mom, think about it carefully. I have already changed my name at the police station." Zhou Hao said helplessly, "If I really did something illegal, I would have been arrested long ago, right?" Li Guiqin was stunned for a moment, "Yes." "If you're still worried, I'll show you the running list of my royalties later." Li Guiqin suddenly came to her senses and grabbed Zhou Hao's arm, "So... son, you are really rich?!" "It's not me, it's our family." Zhou Hao said with a smile: "Didn't I say a few days ago that you and dad don't have to work so hard, just enjoy your life at home." "Okay, okay..." Li Guiqin nodded repeatedly, her face full of tears, "You've grown up and become successful..." However, a few seconds later, another slap hit Zhou Hao on the head. "Mom, what are you doing again?" "You can't waste the money you earn like this!" Li Guiqin was angry and anxious: "Why not just buy a large three-bedroom apartment? Villas are so expensive, more than six million is enough..." "Hey mom, listen to me..." Zhou Hao forcibly pulled Li Guiqin into the house and explained things to her while showing her around. It took a long time to make Li Guiqin accept the rationality of this expenditure. Once she felt relieved, Li Guiqin began to like the house more and more. "Oh, this house is great. It's large and has many rooms. It has good lighting and ventilation... Tsk tsk, with this house, you won't have to worry about not being able to find a wife." "I didn't expect that Qianqian would become like this. Luckily, she was blind and didn't like you. Otherwise, if she had married a wife who looked down on her, she would have suffered in the future..." Zhou Hao: “…………” You change your tune really quickly. When she returned home in the evening, Li Guiqin, in a good mood, cooked a large table of delicious dishes, which were almost as sumptuous as the New Year's Eve dinner. Zhou Hao ate so much that his stomach nearly burst. He went downstairs and walked around for several laps before he felt a little better. Before going home, he bought some drinks and snacks from the store downstairs. When paying the bill, the proprietress stared at him for a long time before recognizing him, "Are you Xiao Yuan?"
"Hello, Auntie." Zhou Hao smiled. "Oh, it's really you. I haven't seen you for years." The lady boss' eyes sparkled and she said, "Wow, I haven't seen you for years. You've become so handsome. Do you have a boyfriend?" "No." Zhou Hao took out his mobile phone and started scanning the code to pay. "I heard that you went to teach in rural areas before?" "Correct." "Is it bitter?" "It's not that bad. I was a little uncomfortable at first, but I got used to it later." "Oh, it's really not easy..." The proprietress sighed, and suddenly seemed to have thought of something. She stared at Zhou Hao with a suspicious look on her face, muttering to herself. "My surname is Zhou... I'm a volunteer teacher... I just left a few days ago after my term ended... Teacher Zhou..." After mumbling for a long time, she suddenly grabbed Zhou Hao's arm and said, "Xiao Yuan, that Teacher Zhou in the so-and-so program, could it be you?!" Zhou Hao's heart skipped a beat. "Auntie, what are you thinking? If I were the person they were looking for, why would I be hiding here if I was on TV and had a great time this morning?" "There are many volunteer teachers with the last name Zhou in the world. I am not the only one." "That's right." The lady boss nodded. "Oh, Mr. Zhou is very famous now. The whole Internet is looking for him!" "Yes, it is quite popular." Zhou Hao nodded, but silently added in his heart: It's better not to be popular... (End of this chapter)
