Chapter 569: A deeper understanding of each other

Shen Ci also looked straight at Gao Zhan. His eyes were deep and profound, and combined with his face, the attraction was doubled.

And at this moment, Shen Ci felt an extra gentle emotion in his eyes.

She pulled the corners of her mouth and smiled suddenly: "You're quite into the role. This look just now made me feel like you've fallen in love with me!"

Gao Zhan blinked and said truthfully: "I just suddenly discovered that you are a very special person, giving me the urge to understand you better."

He just said it straight out.

Shen Ci's expression was slightly stunned: "Very special?"

Gao Zhan nodded without avoiding it: "Yeah, I never thought you would be such a person. You have a lot of personality and charm, and this is not limited to your beauty, but it makes you look even more beautiful."

This sounded a bit convoluted at first, but if you listen carefully to the meaning, you know how accurate Gao Zhan's expression was.

"I didn't expect you to be so good at complimenting people. I thought you were very bad at dealing with girls."

"It's because the feelings you give me are very clear and strong, so I can provide accurate feedback."

His tone was very serious from beginning to end. You wouldn't feel he was being glib; instead, because of his whole temperament, you would feel he was indeed observing you and discovering deeper things about you.

Shen Ci's eyes filled with smiles: "Looking at it this way, we both have a deeper understanding of each other."

"Yes." Gao Zhan also nodded with a smile in his eyes, then tilted his chin toward the front of the alley: "My dad's car is here."

Shen Ci turned to look. The people in the car seemed to have seen them too, and the car speed, which was originally swaying in the alley, clearly increased a bit.

Until the car stopped, the two walked forward a few steps to meet them.

An old man in the back seat opened the door and got out. At a glance, Shen Ci could confirm that this person was Gao Zhan's grandfather, because he looked very much like the great-grandfather.

Gao Zhan's grandfather was an oncology expert who was rehired by the Medical University as a professor after retiring two years ago.

"Grandpa."

Grandfather's eyes were shining when he looked at Shen Ci: "Gao Zhan, girlfriend?"

"Hello Grandpa, my name is Shen Ci." Shen Ci took the initiative to speak.

The two had been holding hands the whole time, and their status was very obvious.

At this time, several more people got out of the car. It was not hard to distinguish a man and a woman as Gao Zhan's father and his father's current wife. Behind them was a boy in his early twenties, who should be Gao Zhan's younger half-brother.

Gao Zhan didn't say much about the "stepmother and younger brother" to her, and Gao Zhan's father was the vice president of a high-end private hospital.

The father-son relationship was still okay, mainly due to Gao Zhan's personality, who never cared about gains and losses in other aspects, which kept this somewhat complex family combination relatively peaceful and balanced.

"Dad, Aunt Bai."

"Hello Uncle, Aunt."

Gao Zhan's father was in a suit with an elegant temperament. In the past two years, he had been the most anxious to arrange a partner for his son, and his son always said he already had a girlfriend. Now that he finally saw her, he was naturally happy in his heart.

"Hello." Gao Zhan's father opened his mouth with a smile, then asked Gao Zhan: "Have you taken your girlfriend to see Great-grandfather?"

"Seen him."

Gao Zhan's grandfather said happily: "The old man must be very happy, right? Among the great-grandchildren, he hopes most to see you bring a girl back for him to see."

"Yes, Great-grandfather likes A'Ci very much and even packed a meeting red envelope for her."

Gao Zhan's father reacted upon hearing this and quickly looked at his wife on the side.

Seeing this, Aunt Bai took a red envelope out of her bag and said with a smile: "Your dad knew you were bringing a girlfriend back today, so he prepared a red envelope early."

After speaking, she handed the red envelope to Shen Ci: "Come child, a meeting gift from Uncle and Aunt, don't be shy."

Shen Ci was quite embarrassed, although she wasn't short of money.

But she had already received the great-grandfather's red envelope, so she couldn't refuse Gao Zhan's father's red envelope at the moment, so she had to accept it.

"Thank you, Uncle and Aunt."

Aunt Bai said softly: "So beautiful, where are you from?"

"Shengang, I got into Longcheng University of Science and Technology, and later my family moved over too." Shen Ci answered truthfully.

Aunt Bai understood: "The coastal capital of the south? No wonder you were born so beautiful and watery."

"Aunt, you flatter me."

"Don't ask these for now, it's almost time, hurry in and celebrate the old man's birthday." Gao Zhan's grandfather said, taking a step up the stairs and walking inside.

Gao Zhan's father instructed Gao Zhan while walking forward: "Since you brought her back, treat her well. The little girl looks young, she should still be in college, right?"

"Your temper is hard, be patient with others, you have to coax girls, you know?"

"Bring her home for a meal another day, let your Aunt cook personally."

Aunt Bai also nodded with a smile: "Right, bring her back and we will entertain her personally."

Gao Zhan kept nodding, while Shen Ci followed along, but always felt a cold light shooting from behind them.

She turned her head slightly and met the boy's eyes.

Cold, with no emotion.

Gao Qi didn't seem to expect Shen Ci to look over suddenly and lowered his eyes subconsciously.

Shen Ci didn't take it to heart and followed Gao Zhan back to their seats at the banquet.

Returning, this table was already full of people, all of whom were younger generation of the same generation as Gao Zhan. Gao Zhan was the eldest great-grandson, the oldest brother of this generation. The brother brought a girlfriend back, so the younger brothers and sisters were naturally curious. The expression in their eyes when they saw Shen Ci for the first time was exactly the same as Gao Min's.

That is, amazement mixed with surprise.

But the younger brothers and sisters seemed a bit afraid to be too gossipy in front of Gao Zhan. Only Gao Min, this younger sister, was the most active.

"Beautiful, right?"

"I didn't lie to you, did I?"

"Is she more beautiful than a star?"

Gao Min was more excited than anyone else, like Shen Ci's spokesperson, wishing she could press everyone's heads to promote her brother's fairy girlfriend on the spot.

At this table, only Liang Sister Shishi's expression was not very good.

But this was clearly not the time when her face looked the ugliest. When Gao Qi came over to this table after wishing the great-grandfather a happy birthday and sat in the empty seat next to Liang Sister Shishi, the expression on her face was visibly uglier.

And the first sentence Gao Qi said after sitting down was exactly the same as the first sentence Liang Sister Shishi said after sitting down and talking to Gao Zhan.

"Sister Sister Shishi, long time no see."

Liang Sister Shishi's expression was strange, but due to the occasion, she responded, but only gave a light "hmm" with her nose.

The atmosphere instantly became weird, even more turbulent than when Shen Ci and Liang Sister Shishi were secretly competing just now.

And at this moment, Shen Ci realized belatedly that Gao Zhan's younger half-brother hadn't called Gao Zhan "Brother" once since he appeared.
