Rebirth: War on the Honest

There are three things a new official should do when he takes office.

Early on the weekend, someone came to visit the newly arrived Director Gu.

"Director Gu, I have heard of you as early as when I was at the tax bureau. Your reputation is well-known..."

After being woken up in his room, Gu Yun was filled with emotions as he listened to the chatter in the living room.

Only if you are strong enough can you gain respect from the world.

This is the truth of the universe, this is the law of the jungle, this is an objective law that is not subject to anyone's will.

Rather than what the guests say, it’s because you are a good person.

Just like Gu Youwei's change in position was due to his wealth, it had nothing to do with his reputation as a good person.

Whether you can live well in this world, whether you can be happy, and whether you can bring a good life to your family depends largely on whether you are strong enough.

The earth revolves around the sun because the sun is strong enough and the earth cannot escape the sun's gravitational pull.

The three palaces and six courtyards revolve around the emperor because the emperor is strong enough and the concubines cannot escape the emperor's gravity.

Gu Yun in the previous life was not strong enough, so at the wine table where everyone was drinking wine, he would lower the rim of his glass by three points.

Gu Yun in this life is strong enough. Gao Zhipeng owes him a favor, and even his cousin has to stand on the opposite side.

Everything is very simple.

.......

In the afternoon, Gu Yun put on new clothes and ran downstairs to the cigarette shop to pick up a pair of Wuliangye and Huazi. Good things come in pairs.

When he arrived at Zhong Leyi's house downstairs, the girl had already run down to pick him up in advance.

"When you came to my house, what else did you bring?"

"You don't understand this. Ordinary classmates don't need to come to your house to play with them. As a boyfriend, you must be considerate when you come to your house."

Gu Yun's tone was too natural, not at all nervous about the son-in-law's visit, as if the two were getting engaged today.

Zhong Leyi's cheeks were slightly red, she lowered her head to take the cigarette and wine from Gu Yun's hand, and pushed open the door.

"Uncle Zhong, Aunt Ning."

This wasn't the first time we met, Gu Yun smiled and said hello.

"Xiao Gu is here, sit down first, the crayfish will be ready soon."

Ning Jiahong is a high school teacher. She has seen too many incidents of puppy love. In addition, women are inherently emotional. After hearing the story of a hero saving a beauty from Zhong Leyi, she immediately fell in love with Gu Yun.

As the saying goes, the more a mother-in-law looks at her son-in-law, the more she likes him.

Zhong Xingbang nodded to Gu Yun, and the two ran to the sofa to chat.

Today's main course is crayfish, which is a favorite among young people. Ning Jiahong got up early and went to the seafood market to buy ten kilograms of it.

Gu Yun and Zhong Xingbang chatted for a while, and the dinner was immediately served. Ning Jiahong brought a whole plate of red shrimps. She was wearing an apron, and a small amount of hair on her forehead was soaked with sweat.

Ten pounds of shrimp can be eaten by four people, which is not a lot.

The most important thing is that no one is playing with mobile phones while eating crayfish, and you can still see the details of a boy.

"Xiao Gu, you're welcome. Just treat it as your own home. Try it first. How does it taste?"

"Okay, Aunt Ning, you're welcome."

Gu Yun put on gloves, pulled out two shrimp pliers, bit off one end of the pliers, held the other movable end and pulled gently, exposing the entire piece of meat in the pliers.

Then twist off the shrimp head, slowly peel it from one side of the shrimp tail, and peel it clean one by one along its branches until the white and tender shrimp meat is peeled out, and the first result is handed to Zhong Leyi's plate.

Ning Jiahong and Zhong Xingbang looked at Gu Yun's skillful and smooth skills, and a thought came to their minds at the same time.

This child is so good at taking care of others, and he will definitely not wrong her if he is with Le Yi.

The parents of both parties have known each other since childhood. As elders, since they are willing to invite Gu Yun to the house for dinner, it is a kind of affirmation in itself. Naturally, there will be no bloody dramas about making things difficult for the daughter's boyfriend.

Gu Yun and Zhong Leyi's family had a very happy chat. Ning Jiahong and Zhong Xingbang also knew for the first time that while they were in love, Gu Yun started his own business outside school.

"Xiao Gu, starting a business is a business, and you can't delay your studies."

Zhong Xingbang dipped a little of the spicy base on the plate and put it into his mouth. This season is the best season for crayfish. The shrimp meat is already tender and sweet.

"Dad, he is the propaganda director of the student union of the school, and he also participated in a volunteer teaching trip to Yingshan County. It shouldn't be a problem to get a postgraduate placement in his junior year."

Normally unable to find an entry point to introduce, Zhong Leyi was afraid that others would not know how good her boyfriend was, so she answered while eating the crayfish fed by Gu Yun.

Zhong Xingbang and Ning Jiahong looked at Gu Yun with gentler eyes.

He knows his roots well, is meticulous and gentle, works hard to make progress, and can stand up to protect Zhong Leyi at the moment of life and death. Such a boy can indeed be at ease with his daughter.

Gu Yun just repeated the above process, taking good care of each shrimp, dismantling and refreshing the meat on them, and not a single bit was wasted.

When you're done eating, take another sip of perfectly chilled Coke from the refrigerator.

The shrimp changed from a complete one to a fragmented plate.

Gu Yun blended into Zhong Leyi's family, and everyone chatted while eating. By the end of the meal, only a plate full of red crumbs was left, like the embers of firecrackers, as if a family of four were celebrating the New Year together.

"Uncle and aunt, it's a bit late, so I won't bother you and will go back first."

After eating, Gu Yun wiped his mouth, took off his gloves, wiped his fingers one by one with the wet wipes at the table, and said goodbye to Zhong Leyi and his family.

As he rode his bicycle, the night wind blew gently on Gu Yun's face. There were only a few pedestrians, and the stars in the summer night sky twinkled. He had seen this scene countless times in his dreams in his previous life.

In Liaocheng, a small city where he grew up, he and Zhong Leyi returned to the local area after graduation to get married and have children. In the evening, they went to their parents' place for dinner, and after eating and drinking, they went for a walk on the road.

There doesn't seem to be a big difference between dreams and reality. At least, they have the same night breeze.

...

"Mom, Gu Yun wants to invite me to travel in a few days, is that okay?"

Gu Yun once asked her if she wanted to go to Seattle with the team to play a game and treat it as a holiday trip.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Zhong Leyi is very excited, but it is summer vacation after all, so she has to go back and ask her parents for their opinions.

Her boyfriend came to the door smoothly, and her parents' impression of him was at its peak. Zhong Leyi found an opportunity to test it out.

"Travel? Where to go?"

Ning Jiahong had just finished wiping the table and quickly grasped the core of the problem.

For most female parents, the most they can accept is intra-provincial travel, same-day travel, or even surrounding travel.

"Well... to Seattle."

Zhong Leyi was a little uneasy, her tone was light, and she didn't have any confidence in her heart.

"Where? Seattle?"

Zhong Xingbang laughed angrily, opened a new bottle of ice-cold Coke, and took a big gulp.

"Is the Seattle you are talking about the same city as Seattle, Washington, USA? Are you sure you are not kidding your parents?"

Zhong Leyi remained silent.

Just because her conservative parents accepted Gu Yun as her boyfriend, it didn't mean they could accept her traveling abroad with him to spend two nights together. These were two completely different things.

"Dad knows that you and Xiao Gu have a good relationship, but recently all the cash at home is in the stock market, and it's not convenient to take it out."

Zhong Xingbang pretended to be mellow. He didn't directly say that he was afraid that Gu Yun would covet his daughter's body, but he made a lame excuse.

Cut off Zhong Leyi's source of funds.

It costs at least tens of thousands of yuan to travel to the United States. If I don’t give it to you, how will you go?

"Dad, do you agree?"

Is there any drama?

Zhong Leyi smiled broadly and had no intention of asking her family for money.

"It's not that dad is against you traveling. The main reason is that going to Seattle is too far and too expensive. It costs a lot of cash to hire a private boxing instructor for you. The family can't afford this money at the moment."

Zhong Xingbang emphasized again that he always felt that something was wrong.

What does this reaction mean? Although she usually gives her a lot of living expenses, judging from her daughter's consumption level, it is impossible to save tens of thousands of dollars, right?

He pressed the remote control distractedly, and it happened to switch to Jiangsu and Zhejiang Satellite TV, where "The Voice of China" was replayed.

"Authentic good learning, authentic good voice, welcome to watch the Chinese good voice named by Paradise Technology, the top online education brand..."

When Mr. Hua's voice came, Zhong Xingbang frowned.

"Sponsored by Shangyuan Technology? Why does it sound so familiar?"

Where did you hear it?

Ning Jiahong took over her husband's words: "Paradise Technology is an education and training company. Many parents in our school are using their apps. You must have heard this from your colleagues at work."

"Dad, you are so kind!"

Zhong Leyi was so happy that she decided to have a showdown with her parents.

"Let me tell you, Paradise Technology is a company founded by Xiao Gu outside school."
