The sensation was akin to her interactions with Su Shen. The man appeared deep and aloof, yet Gu Zi didnt feel suppressed when she was with him.
Initially, she was drawn to Su Shens appearance and the benefits of painless childbirth. Now, she found herself attracted to the man himself. She truly wished to marry him.
The motorcycle came to a stop in front of the courtyard gates. Su Shen and Gu Zi disembarked and entered together.
Initially, Gu Zi thought that without registration or familiarity, it was impossible to enter the urban military compound. But when the guard peeked and didnt intervene, she and Su Shen entered smoothly.
Gu Zi was puzzled. Did the rules for entering and exiting the compound change?
Su Shen chuckled softly. Seems like it.
As they walked through the corridor, Su Shens tall figure struggled a bit in the somewhat old hallway. He had to lower his head when he reached the corner.
Gu Zi now realized that in terms of economic conditions, the households in this compound were nowhere near Su Shens family. At least, the Su familys space allowed him to move more freely.
Arriving at the entrance of the Gu familys residence, Gu Zi knocked.
Zhang Mei opened the door but immediately shut it upon seeing her, saying to those inside, Nothing, just a mail delivery to the wrong door.
Gu Zi looked at Su Shen behind him and continued to knock on the door. Only then did Zhang Mei open the door and step outside.
She quickly closed the wooden door behind her. It was obvious that there was someone inside who did not want to see Gu Zi.
Why did you come back? she asked with displeasure. Dont even think of going after Gong Zhan. Cant you just behave yourself?
Before Gu Zi could speak, she received a scolding from her adoptive mother. That made her feel a little uncomfortable.
When did she show any intention of getting involved with Gong Zhan? She wasnt Lin Miao; she wasnt that idle.
Her face still carried a faint smile. After all, she needed the Gu familys household register, and she was eager for the transfer to succeed.
Mom, Im not here to find Gong Zhan. I just want to borrow the household register to transfer my registration.
Unexpectedly, Zhang Mei sneered upon hearing this. They couldnt even handle the transfer. What could someone from the countryside do?
A thirty-year-old rural man with no land, unable to eat or find a proper job, came here to pose as someone wealthy. Zhang Mei glanced at Su Shen, thinking he was dressed decently to pose as a rich person today.
She sneered, People need to take the right path, stop wandering around aimlessly all day. The household register wont help you; you cant do it.
Gu Zi found Zhang Mei unreasonable and restrained her smile. Mom, I just want to use the household register. Can we try? As for Gong Zhan, please rest assured, I have no intention of contacting him, not now, nor in the future.
She remained composed and polite, without a hint of complaint, making Zhang Mei find it difficult to keep scolding her.
However, Zhang Mei still didnt want Gu Zi to see Gong Zhan inside. In a cold voice, she said, If you dont have any intentions with him, then stop parading around the city with your fianc using unreasonable excuses. Hurry up and leave!
After saying that, she averted her gaze, looking disdainful as if even glancing at Su Shen would dirty her eyes.
Gu Zi felt a sting from that look. Did Zhang Mei disdain Su Shen?
She had a principle: if someone criticized her, she might not care, but if someone criticized her man, she wouldnt tolerate it.
But before she could speak, Su Shen spoke first. Auntie, I can see that you have an important guest. We just need to use the household register and wont trouble you in the future.
He remained composed, his tone polite but distant. He was straightforward; if these people had no affection for Gu Zi, he didnt need to treat them as elders.
Zhang Mei hadnt expected this countryside man to be so composed. But she thought it might be better to hand them the household register to get rid of them, to avoid trouble with Gong Zhan.
Recently, the relationship between Gong Zhan and Lin Miao had just made a little progress. She couldnt tolerate any mishaps.
Wait here; dont come in without permission, she said before turning and going inside to get the household register.
Inside, Gong Zhan and Gu Shan had just finished their conversation and overheard the exchange.
Zhang Mei didnt explain anything and directly retrieved the household register.
Gong Zhan sat on a chair in the living room, looking rather grim. He recalled
Gu Zis words from earlier and felt that the woman was extremely hypocritical.
On one hand, she had asked Lin Miao to arrange a meeting with him, and on the other, she was also eager to be with a rural man..
