Chapter 433: 433 He found his priceless treasure

Lin Tang collided with the man’s earnest and determined gaze, feeling an electric tingling sensation as if brushed by a feather.

"... At the very least, I have to inform my family about the relationship first," she said with a smile.

Gu Yingzhou thought it was only right, "Mhm."

No sooner had he spoken than he seemingly casually inquired, "When will that be?"

"Are you in a hurry?" Lin Tang couldn’t help but laugh.

The response she got was someone’s decisive nod, "... Yes, quite."

If not now, when would one hurry to take a wife?

Seeing him earnestly discuss the hurry to marry, Lin Tang nearly died laughing.

"Alright then, I will talk to my family once I go back."

Hearing this, Gu Yingzhou’s eyes dropped, and he said lowly, "I hear reluctance in that ’alright.’ If it troubles you, let’s forget it for now. We can talk when you’re ready."

Lin Tang fell silent, "..."

His words...

"Where is any reluctance? I said of course, of course, of course, no trouble at all. I’m more than willing," she resigned herself to say.

Her partner was supposed to be a tough, iron-blooded man, so why did it seem like he’d unlocked some weird skill, making it almost unbearable to watch?

A deep smile flickered in the depths of Gu Yingzhou’s eyes, and when he lifted them again, they were as deep as converging stars.

"As long as it’s not bothering you, then let’s settle on that."

Finally about to graduate from an intern to a regular employee!

Lin Tang replied with a hum, "Mhm mhm."

As evening fell, summer stars twinkled and the warm yellow streetlights cast tender silhouettes.

People these days rose with the sun and retired early, leaving the streets sparsely populated.

Lin Tang looked at the tall figure beside her, pretending to be too lazy to walk.

Her voice was soft and coquettish, "... Zhouzhou, my feet hurt."

Without a word, Gu Yingzhou squatted down, "Get on."

Lin Tang climbed onto his back with glee in her eyes, admirably illustrating the truest form of a pampered woman!

"Thank you, Zhouzhou."

Gu Yingzhou easily carried her on his back, smiled, and said, "Take a nap if you’re sleepy."

It was his first time carrying someone and he was wholeheartedly willing.

Lin Tang lay on Gu Yingzhou’s back, her face resting on his shoulder, and, eyeing the man’s handsome face, she asked, "Am I heavy?"

Gu Yingzhou laughed inwardly, thinking that even three more of her wouldn’t be heavy.

Out loud, however, he said, "Yes, heavy."

Lin Tang, "..."

Lin Tang was stunned.

Her mind fixated on that word ’heavy.’

Before she could speak, Gu Yingzhou opened his mouth again, "You weigh a lot in my heart."

His tone was light but very solemn.

That one sentence set off brilliant fireworks in Lin Tang’s mind.

Lin Tang wrapped her arms around Gu Yingzhou’s neck and gave him a peck on the cheek.

"Such a smooth talker, this is your reward."

She was as sweet as she was cute.

Gu Yingzhou was bemused.

On the quiet, empty street, the night lights stretched their shadows long.

Soon, they saw the grand entrance to the Guest House from a distance.

Bright lights were shining at the gate.

Gu Yingzhou set Lin Tang down in advance, and they walked shoulder to shoulder toward it.

As they reached the entrance of the Guest House, a car happened to stop.

The one getting out was Jing Yin, with whom they were acquainted from before, accompanied by another middle-aged man.

Seeing the latter, Gu Yingzhou frowned.

Kong Fangren also looked over.

He was slightly stunned, somewhat disbelieving, "Are you Comrade Gu Yingzhou?"

Gu Yingzhou nodded, "Mhm, Professor Kong, long time no see."

Kong Fangren’s face showed a wistful smile, "It really is you. I didn’t expect to run into you here. Where are you working now, Comrade Gu?"

He felt a pang of regret for the young man who turned down his invitation to join his research team two years earlier.

He had seen a few of Comrade Gu Yingzhou’s college papers and some research findings, which matched well with his own work.

If Gu Yingzhou had joined them, their research team would have been augmented significantly.

Gu Yingzhou smiled lightly, "I’m a director at a small factory."

His Gu family had risen through the ranks from horseback.

The old man placed great emphasis on the physical development of the men in the Gu family, with training beginning once they were old enough to understand it.

Annual army drills were a mandatory course.

The daily exercise habits had developed because it had been an ingrained routine since childhood.

Unlike his brothers, Gu Yingzhou truly had battlefield experience.

As his university graduation approached, with the border situation critical, he gave up his slated research job, donned a military uniform, and headed to the frontier.

Shot twice in the chest on the battlefield, his injuries were severe and he was sent back to Jing City, where he reluctantly stepped down from service.

Later on, he received a secret mission from the military and became the director of the Machinery Factory.

Kong Fangren was a senior he respected before he went off to battle.

Without getting a precise answer, Kong Fangren didn’t press further.

Seeing that Gu Yingzhou seemed quite satisfied with his current situation, he didn’t pursue the matter.

"It’s all about contributing to the country’s development, no matter where you are."

It was just such a pity!

Gu Yingzhou, unaware of his thoughts, would have said there was no pity at all, if he knew.

Because... he had found his priceless treasure.

Recalling the incident that occurred at the Guest House earlier, Gu Yingzhou said, "Some thugs entered the Guest House, it’s best to stay somewhere else to avoid any more incidents."

Kong Fangren seemed used to it.

Looked at the Guest House with a wry smile, "I suppose everyone inside must have gotten a shock, I’m very sorry."

Believing the Guest House to be safer before, he never expected...

Gu Yingzhou, without turning his head, accurately and softly stroked Lin Tang’s head to calm her silently.

His eyes set on Kong Fangren, "The wrong are those who can’t see the light of day, not the innocent."

Although his little lady had been grievously wronged, he didn’t go so far as to blame the innocent.

A few steps away, Jing Yin learned from the public security officials about the spy incident at the Guest House.

A cold glint passed briefly through his eyes.

"Thank you to all comrades for your hard work."

Chen Feng, his uncle, chuckled, "Thanks to Comrades Gu Yingzhou and Lin Tang, we wouldn’t have caught on without them."

Thinking about catching four spies adding a new entry to his resume, he was naturally thrilled.

A good official aspiring to climb higher wasn’t a good official at all; but as he was one, naturally, he hoped to advance further.

Lucky to have his nephew’s friend!

Hearing this, Jing Yin glanced at Lin Tang and Gu Yingzhou.

When he saw Zhang Rang’s familiar little face, his expression involuntarily softened.

He took a few steps forward.

"I’ve heard about the situation. You two comrades have worked hard. The rest is up to us, and we’ll make sure you get a proper resolution."

Gu Yingzhou nodded earnestly.

Lin Tang smiled without speaking.

Wondering about the relationship between Lin Tang and Gu Yingzhou, Jing Yin didn’t forget the matter at hand. He turned to Kong Fangren and said, "Professor Kong, do you still plan to stay at the Guest House tonight? Perhaps you should consider our pre-arranged place."

His visit to Sea City was not just to convey the importance he placed on the carding machine to Mr. Yang but also to escort Professor Kong Fangren.

Kong Fangren shook his head, "No need, I’ll stay at the Guest House."

After dealing with a crowd of people and under scrutiny, he didn’t believe those miscreants would dare to act rashly.

Respecting his decision, Jing Yin added, "Alright, I’ll make sure security is tightened."

Kong Fangren nodded politely, "Thank you for the trouble, Deputy Director Jing."

After exchanging pleasantries, he nodded to everyone present and entered the Guest House with his assistant.
