Tian Dan glanced at Gu Qiaoqiao and said with a smile, "I once had the pleasure of eting the Old Patriarch. I didn’t expect that despite your young age, you possess the deanor of a great leader. Lifeng Security has relieved so of the worries for our retired military personnel. On behalf of their families, I thank you."
"No, no, it’s our duty." Gu Qiaoqiao hurriedly replied humbly.
At this mont, soone called Boss Xu. He apologized to Tian Dan, who smiled and said, "Go ahead, don’t worry about . Let Qiaoqiao show around."
Boss Xu nodded, left with a cheerful smile on his face.
Gu Qiaoqiao had just learned that the security company had beco a key enterprise to be supported in the district.
Gu Qiaoqiao felt the weight on her shoulders had beco a bit heavier.
However, she also felt honored to be able to do sothing for so needy retired soldiers. She was quite happy.
Gu Qiaoqiao accompanied Tian Dan as they walked into the company.
At this mont, not all the invited guests had arrived yet, and it was not ti; there were still half an hour before the ceremony started.
Tian Dan proposed to take a tour of the company, and Gu Qiaoqiao readily agreed.
As they passed a pile of flower baskets, Tian Dan suddenly stopped in her tracks, and Gu Qiaoqiao followed her gaze.
It was sent by Fang Liang.
The congratulatory ssage was obviously handwritten, with flamboyantly flying strokes, clearly the work of a good writer. Upon closer look, it carried the style of masters from the Wei and Jin dynasties.
Gu Qiaoqiao glanced at Tian Dan and also stopped.
Tian Dan smiled at the handwriting, but her smile carried a hint of bitterness.
However, it vanished in the blink of an eye. Subsequently, she smiled lightly at Gu Qiaoqiao and said generously, "Qiaoqiao, my family lives not far from the Fang family, and we grew up together, naturally knowing a bit about the Gu and Fang families’ affairs. I am also aware of Laosi’s relationship with you..."
Gu Qiaoqiao was taken aback, then imdiately understood the situation.
Tian Dan was making it clear that she opposed things, not people.
It was a smart approach. Since it was a key enterprise to be promoted in Jinshui District, there would naturally be many chances for them to interact in the future, and sooner or later, Gu Qiaoqiao would find out so relationships involved here.
It was better to clarify in advance, so if sothing really happened in the future, the Gu family wouldn’t feel that Tian Dan was seeking personal revenge.
After all, it was a business, especially now that many businesses were not perfect, so problems would naturally arise frequently.
If there were any illegal aspects, as industrial and comrcial, they would have to step in to handle it.
Gu Qiaoqiao laughed, wanting to tell her about Fang Liang’s possible long journey from which he might never return, but she held back.
Nothing had been decided yet, and it was mainly Fang Liang’s decision; even if Tian Dan were to know, it shouldn’t be through her mouth.
"Director Tian, I understand your intent. Rest assured, I’m not soone who can’t distinguish right from wrong. I also understand the approach of addressing issues, not people. Let’s go and have a look at the office in front..." Gu Qiaoqiao’s voice was crisp, with a hint of understanding and insight.
Tian Dan felt relieved, it was indeed necessary to separate public from private matters. Fortunately, Gu Qiaoqiao was very intelligent, worthy of being the successor of the Old Patriarch. She smiled softly and walked inside with Gu Qiaoqiao.
When they completed a circle back to the main gate, it was almost ti for the ceremony to start.
Afterward, the security personnel split into two lines, standing tall in their uniform security attire, like soldiers, stationed on both sides of the main gate.
Each and every one was full of spirit and majesty,
earning unanimous praise from the guests attending the ceremony.
Right at this mont, a green jeep parked at the entrance parking area.
Green jeeps all looked the sa, but Gu Qiaoqiao recognized it as Qin Yize’s car at a glance.
Oh my, why is he here?
There wasn’t the slightest hint beforehand.
As Gu Qiaoqiao was startled, the car door opened, and a tall figure stepped out from the vehicle. It was indeed Qin Yize.
However, he wasn’t wearing a military uniform.
But a suit that Gu Qiaoqiao had never seen him wear before.
The suit was dark blue, with a white cotton shirt inside. The trousers encased his straight long legs, making his tall figure appear even more elongated.
His eyebrows were like distant mountains, his nose high and straight, resembling exquisite snow under the spring sun yet like dawn clouds over the horizon.
His expression was serene, but it carried a hint of coldness that made people hesitant to approach.
He seed like a general who had just taken off his battle attire after coming down from the battlefield.
Imposing and dazzling at the sa ti.
Even Gu Qiaoqiao’s heart unexpectedly skipped several beats, while her lips curved into a proud smile. Her own man looked excellent from every angle.
When Qin Yize saw Gu Qiaoqiao, his eyes lit up, and imdiately his entire face broke into a smile.
The next mont, another car door opened, and another young man, also in a suit, stepped down, leaving everyone stunned once more.
Unlike Qin Yize, this man had charming peach blossom eyes, with a look that seed to carry a smile even when he wasn’t smiling; his handso face made people feel refreshed like a spring breeze.
Everyone secretly wondered whose son he was, as they had never seen him before.
Such a figure couldn’t have been raised in an ordinary family.
Though so did not want to admit it, this was indeed the truth.
That kind of innate confidence and noble deanor couldn’t be cultivated overnight or in just a few days.
Before Gu Qiaoqiao could speak, Qin Xiaoyu happily shouted, "Big brother, Brother Luo Fan..."
Gu Qianqian, standing nearby, also greeted courteously, "Brother-in-law, Brother Luo Fan."
They were close to Qin Yize and Luo Fan,
so they naturally saw them at once.
In front of Qin Xiaoyu and Gu Qianqian, Qin Yize and Luo Fan stopped, smiling as they greeted the boys and girls surrounding them.
The crowd realized that these were people from the Imperial Capital Qin Family, the division-level staff officer of the military district, Qin Yize.
And Luo Fan?
Several general managers frequently traveling between the Imperial Capital and Jinling City exchanged puzzled glances. Could he be Luo Fan, the grandson of Luo Zhenyu of the Imperial Capital?
He must be!
Coming with the Qin family, he surely had to be Luo family.
Those in the know quietly felt grateful, realizing that coming personally this ti was the wisest decision.
By this ti, Boss Xu had already co forward in greeting.
His current honor was sothing he was genuinely grateful to Qin Yize for.
Of course, it was the sa with Laosi too, but the friendship with Laosi didn’t need to be ntioned, whereas Qin Yize must be thanked.
Even though he ca for Gu Qiaoqiao, there was still so connection with him too.
eting again, pleasantries were unavoidable.
Xiao Wen stood beside Gu Qiaoqiao, teasing with a smile, "Last night you complained about how nice it would be if Ah Ze ca, it seems so people are easily summoned by wishes..."
"Sister Xiao Wen..." Gu Qiaoqiao pouted playfully, "I wasn’t complaining, just casually saying..."
Xiao Wen chuckled.
At this mont, Qin Yize and Luo Fan had already walked up to Gu Qiaoqiao.
