Chapter 1116: Chapter 482: A Chance Encounter with an Old Friend

To be honest, Brother Dong’s relatives are somewhat awkward in this setting.

After all, Brother Dong is considered a bright child from a poor family, having come out of a small mountain village.

Except for him alone, though others followed to enjoy the prosperity, they definitely couldn’t catch the style.

While Zhang Tianze’s family might not be as wealthy as Brother Dong, they are at least a middle-class family. Her father graduated with a doctorate and is a university teacher, then started his own company. The relatives and friends around them can be considered intellectuals.

So when both parties sit together, the difference in status is clear.

Upon seeing them, Zhou Yuwen finally understood why Brother Dong chose Zhang Tianze over the Commandery Princess.

It’s really not as simple as preferring the young; marriage involves two families. Brother Dong and the Commandery Princess might get along reasonably well, but when these two families come together.

Brother Dong’s current dimension is several levels higher than Zhang Tianze’s, so although the family doesn’t hold much face, Zhang Tianze’s relatives won’t say anything.

If Brother Dong’s family were to sit with the Commandery Princess’s family, it’d be difficult to hold their heads high, because no matter how much Brother Dong earns, in their eyes, it’s due to the Commandery Princess’s credit, and Brother Dong would never be able to lift his head.

This is not the case here.

From the sight of Brother Dong strutting around in his suit, happily toasting, it’s clear.

As for Zhang Tianze’s father, Zhang Lihou, he indeed felt somewhat embarrassed. After all, he’s an intellectual, yet ended up sitting with Brother Dong’s family, simply staring blankly without saying a word.

The guests come and go, saying congratulations, but what they’re really thinking, Zhang Lihou doesn’t even need to guess.

His daughter found herself a boyfriend two years younger than her.

Who’s going to be happy about that?

But still, there’s no choice because from a young age, Zhang Tianze has been a girl with her own beliefs.

Indeed Zhang Lihou can’t manage his daughter.

He’s brooding over there when.

Liu Dongqiang’s men lead Zhou Yuwen and Li Shiqi over, and at once, there’s a table of people with distinctly different poise, and a young man suddenly arrives, what’s more, the young man is quite handsome.

When Zhang Lihou saw Zhou Yuwen for the first time, he thought, this is the type of boyfriend his daughter should have!

Truly, after all the hard work raising such a beautiful daughter.

The outcome was that she was wedged by this old dish.

If she ends up with this boy in front of him, it’d be considered normal!

Just as he was thinking this, Zhou Yuwen brought Li Shiqi to sit next to him and asked with a smile, “Uncle, is this seat taken?”

“No.”

Zhang Lihou shook his head, noting Zhou Yuwen’s dignified appearance, unlike someone from a village, which piqued Zhang Lihou’s curiosity and he ponderingly asked, “Are you related to Dongqiang?”

“Oh. Uncle, I’m not Brother Qiang’s immediate family, just his friend, he insisted I sit over here.” Zhou Yuwen said with a smile.

“Oh!” Zhang Lihou nodded, showing understanding.

Zhou Yuwen asked curiously, “Oh, uncle, you are?”

Zhou Yuwen’s question seemed to poke at Zhang Lihou’s sore spot, despite his reluctance to admit, he had no choice but to.

“I’m the girl’s father.”

“Oh, you’re Little Tian’s father!” Zhou Yuwen immediately showed respect.

Zhang Lihou asked in surprise, “You know Little Tian?”

“Ah, I went to Barnard before, actually I met Little Tian first, then Brother Dong.” Zhou Yuwen quickly said.

Upon hearing this, Zhang Lihou couldn’t help but take more interest in Zhou Yuwen.

Thinking, since you met Tiantian first, why weren’t you more proactive?

By the way, what’s your name, are you Tiantian’s classmate?

Zhou Yuwen came over originally to network, and he remembered that Zhang Tianze’s father was into real estate, so he intended to promote his property company.

He proactively said his name, Zhou Yuwen.

Zhang Lihou felt the name sounded familiar, suddenly realizing, “Oh, you’re that one?”

“Yes, Uncle.”

Zhang Lihou’s eyes couldn’t help but light up, truly didn’t expect to meet Zhou Yuwen here, he had long heard of Zhou Yuwen, not to mention the previous incident with Jiang family that created quite a stir.

Later, he made quite a name in the U.S. stock market, known far and wide.

Brother Dong arranged Zhou Yuwen at the family seat for a reason, truthfully because among those here, probably only Zhou Yuwen would manage to somewhat hold his own, and also establish a topic with the female relatives’ side.

After knowing Zhou Yuwen’s identity, Zhang Tianze’s several relatives became keenly interested in him, mentioning their own follow-up on the U.S. stock market, not nearly as accomplished as Zhou Yuwen.

Someone mentioned hearing about Zhou Yuwen supposedly having leveraged 30-fold?

Zhou Yuwen gestured to indicate he hadn’t.

Not to mention believing it’d rise, how could there be a 30-fold leverage.

“That’s just some nonsense spread by outsiders.”

Zhou Yuwen told Zhang Lihou: “I’ve heard of uncle a long time ago, never had a chance to pay a visit, heard uncle is not only a professor but also started his own company?”

Zhang Lihou waved his hand, indicating it’s nothing big, not worth mentioning.

Saying that, he actively gave Zhou Yuwen his card, saying that since Tiantian was soon to be married, the house would be empty.

“Xiao Zhou, if you’re free, come visit our house more often.”

Zhou Yuwen glanced at the card, wow, it wasn’t a real estate company, turns out to be an audiovisual company.

Zhou Yuwen nodded in agreement.

Although Zhang Lihou wasn’t in real estate, Zhang Tianze’s relatives surely had a few involved in it, Zhou Yuwen’s trip wasn’t for nothing, yet being distantly connected like this, a lot goes unspoken.
