act immediately," Old Li said in a serious tone."Yes, Grandfather." Li Mingguang nodded and then took out his phone to make a call.Jianghai City.A slender and graceful woman stands quietly on the top...Chapter 773 - This Is Called Having Personality
Hearing Yun Qing's voice, Zhong Haoyun finally came to his senses. Although it was somewhat beyond imagination, he had already understood that this mature and stunning woman was indeed the impressionable young junior sister he remembered. She had grown into a mature woman.
"Junior Sister, you've really changed a lot. I'm almost unrecognizable." Zhong Haoyun said with a smile. While talking, he couldn't help but glance at Xia Tian, wondering if this was the lucky guy who turned his junior sister into what she is now
"Big Brother, you haven't really changed much," Yun Qing softly replied. Zhong Haoyun's changes were indeed minor; there was just a slight maturity in his demeanor and appearance-wise he didn’t differ too much from before, which is why she recognized him immediately.
"That’s right." Zhong Haoyun chuckled, "In the past, everyone said I looked old, but now they all say I look young."
After a slight hesitation, Zhong Haoyun extended his right hand towards Xia Tian proactively, "Hello, I'm Zhong Haoyun. Yun Qing's college classmate."
"I am Xia Tian." Xia Tian did shake hands with Zhong Haoyun, and from his observation, this guy was not yet a love rival to him. Thus, he immediately declared his ownership over Yun Qing: "I’m the husband of Sister Yun Qing."
“Xia Tian” Zhong Haoyun blinked for a second before chuckling. “Mr. Xia has an interesting name.”
"That's right. Your name is not as unique." Xia Tian answered solemnly.
Zhong Haoyun was stunned and felt somewhat awkward at the moment.
“Senior Brother, sorry about that. He’s just like this; he doesn’t know how to express himself.” Yun Qing said apologetically—this guy wasn't only unique in name but also different from others as a whole person. Take now for an example: No normal person would talk the way he was talking.
However, Xia Tian retorted unhappily, “Sis Yun Qing, this is being unique.”
Yun Qing felt somewhat awkward too; bringing this guy along was clearly a mistake.
"Mr. Xia certainly has quite the personality." Zhong Haoyun smiled slightly, then changed the subject: "Little Senior Sister, I have a few friends inside. Shall we go in"
"Alright." Yun Qing nodded.
The trio entered the restaurant together. With Zhong Haoyun's introductions, Yun Qing met his group of friends; there were four people in total—two men and two women. One man was around forty years old, not tall but rather lean, looking quite scholarly with a pair of gold-rimmed glasses. The other man was about the same age as Zhong Haoyun, in his thirties, also not particularly tall, fair-skinned, though he had deep-set eyes that made him seem somewhat eerie.
The forty-year-old man was named Yao Wei, while the one in his thirties was called Zhuang Zhengxi. Zhong Haoyun didn't specify their occupations; he only said they were all friends and partners of his. As for the two women, both appeared quite young—one around twenty years old with a good figure and looks named Ji Yan, who served as Yao Wei's assistant—and another slightly older at about twenty-five or six, not conventionally pretty but exuding an air of intellectual beauty; she was called Ouyang Jin, although she wasn't his secretary. Furthermore, her relationship with Zhong Haoyun seemed particularly close.
Upon Yun Qing’s arrival, everyone's attention immediately shifted to her. The stunning and mature Yun Qing easily outshone the other two women, drawing more attention from the men at the table while making those ladies naturally feel a hint of jealousy.
Even though it was Xia Tian, he seemed to be overlooked. Obviously, the few people at the table had never heard of him before, and considering that Xia Tian didn't seem particularly special either, the only thing about him that stood out was his relationship with Yun Qing, a big beauty. However, this wouldn’t make the other people at the table pay much attention to him.
"Lawyer Yun, you're classmates with Zhong Haoyun in university; shouldn't you be quite familiar with things he did back then" Ou Yang Jin was seated next to Yun Qing and seemed very interested in Zhong Haoyun.
"It's not that clear, I can only say that I know a little bit," Yun Qing replied.
"Really " Ou Yang Jin smiled lightly. "Haoyun has always told us how pure he was during university and never dated any girls; is this true"
"Yes! Lawyer Yun, I also want to know!" Ji Yan also chimed in from the side.
"Regardless of whether you believe it or not, I don't believe it," Yao Wei pushed up his glasses and said calmly without any hurry.
"I think Hao Yun is quite pure, probably similar to how I was."
Ou Yang Jin looked at Zhuang Zhengxi with disdain and said, "Save your breath! Who doesn’t know about you You had eight girlfriends in university. How dare you talk about purity"
"Come on, Little Jin, you don't understand this," Yao Wei chuckled. "That’s exactly why Zhuang is pure—he went through eight girlfriends in four years of college."
“Mr. Yao, why is that” Ji Yan asked with genuine curiosity.
Yao Wei looked at her and smiled broadly, saying, “Guess!” Even Yun Qing could tell there was something going on between these two beyond a simple boss and assistant relationship.
"I’m not as smart, so I can’t guess," Ji Yan pouted cutely.
"You guys don't need to guess; I'll tell you myself." Zhuang Zhengxi gave a light cough and said, "The reason is very simple: when I graduated from university, I was still a virgin."
"Ah" Ji Yan was initially stunned before she burst into laughter. "Hahaha, Mr. Zhuang, could it be that you have some kind of abnormality"
"Uh, Miss Ji, don't say things like that randomly; I'm a perfectly normal man," Zhuang Zhengxi said without changing his expression.
"Hey hey, the two of you stop causing trouble. Lawyer Yun hasn't answered my question yet." Ou Yang Jin was slightly displeased. Once everyone quieted down, she looked at Yun Qing again and asked, "Lawyer Yun, is what I just asked you true"
"I'm not quite sure about this; all I can say is that I've never seen Senior Brother Zhong with a girlfriend," Yun Qing replied after a slight hesitation. She could tell that the few people around Cheng Haoyun were very familiar with each other, but she felt somewhat out of place in this atmosphere.
"How about it Little Jin, didn't I tell you the truth" Cheng Haoyun shrugged his shoulders and gave an innocent expression.rom Xia Tian.表麵上，魅兒是讓她去管理地組，實際上，恐怕卻是讓夏天來接管地組。不過，魅兒也應該知道夏天做事總是不按常理出牌，所以才讓她當組長，而隻是讓夏天在一旁協助。這樣一來，兩人合作的話，不僅應該能夠鎮住地組的人，魅兒也不用擔心夏天會胡作非為。想到這裡，沐晗不禁猶豫起來，她到底要不要答應魅兒的提議呢？毫無疑問，對她來說，從以前的龍組特工變成地組特工，工作內容類似，也不需要去適應新的環...
