CHAPTER 408: CHAPTER 408: ZHOU TING

"Come on, Juanzi, I ordered all your favorites." In the state-owned restaurant, Zheng Peng said dotingly to Gu Juan, "As for Gu Lingling, don’t worry, I’ll definitely help you get revenge."

"Pengzi, you treat me so well," Gu Juan said coquettishly.

"Juanzi?"

Suddenly, a voice came from behind Gu Juan, making her body stiffen. She didn’t move.

This voice... could it be?

"What? Gu Juan, not even a year has passed, and you’ve forgotten about me?" The owner of the voice came over, placing a hand on Gu Juan’s chair as he leaned closer and said, "Juanzi?"

Gu Juan took a breath before turning her head, and sure enough, she saw Zhou Ting smiling at her.

Even though she didn’t work with Zhou Ting for long, Gu Juan knew him to some extent. When he was a captain in the Youth Brigade, people gave him the nickname ’Smiling Tiger’.

On the surface, he was all affable smiles, but privately, who knows what big trick he was planning to pull on you.

When Gu Juan first entered the Youth Brigade, she was quite apprehensive of this for a while.

"Captain Zhou, you’ve... you’ve come back?" Gu Juan smiled timidly, leaning back to maintain as much distance from Zhou Ting as possible.

"Yeah, just came back to take a look." Zhou Ting smiled, dragging a stool to sit between Gu Juan and Zheng Peng, "And who might this be? Juanzi, aren’t you going to introduce us?"

The humiliation from last winter, how could he possibly forget it?

It was only because something happened to their family in the Capital City, and his father wanted him to dodge the limelight for a while, so the whole family moved back there.

But he never forgot this grudge, waiting for a day to come back for revenge.

"This is Zheng Peng from the transformer factory, my boyfriend." Gu Juan tried to calm herself with a smile, "Pengzi, this is Captain Zhou Ting, who I mentioned used to take care of me when I was in the Youth Brigade."

"Captain Zhou, I’ve heard so much about you," Zheng Peng said with a smile, "Why not join us for a meal since we’ve bumped into each other?"

"No, you two enjoy your meal." Zhou Ting stood up lazily and said, "Juanzi, let’s catch up another day."

This was a clear sign he didn’t want to dine with Zheng Peng.

Zheng Peng’s smile froze momentarily.

Being the son of Secretary Zheng of the transformer factory, it’s rare for people to not give him face.

"Captain Zhou, you must be busy." Gu Juan naturally caught the hint in his words and said with a forced smile.

"Juanzi, I find that upon my return, you’re acting distant with me," Zhou Ting glanced at Zheng Peng with a smile but said nothing more before standing up to leave.

Back then, if those people hadn’t come in suddenly, Gu Juan would probably have been... with him.

Who would have thought that in less than a year, so many things had changed?

But... everything that belongs to him will remain his.

Wherever Zhou Ting lost face, he’ll reclaim it there.

Boyfriend?

Ha... Zhou Ting didn’t even know what a boyfriend meant. All he knew was that any woman he set his eyes on, no one else should dare to take away, unless he got tired and didn’t want her anymore.

"Let’s eat," Zheng Peng said indifferently.

"Pengzi, I... I really have nothing to do with him," Gu Juan said aggrievedly.

She never imagined Zhou Ting would come back, and to meet him in such a situation made Gu Juan recall those months at the Youth Brigade.

No... her good days had just begun; she absolutely couldn’t let Zhou Ting ruin them.

Even if Zhou Ting’s family background seemed more imposing than Zheng Peng’s.

But his character was just too terrifying.
