Chapter 221 Confession·Compromise·Glory

Updated: 2013-06-24

Lin Tao had a bitter face, as soon as he heard Guo Zhan's tone, he knew what he was going to say.

"Uncle Guo, I really didn't hide it on purpose..."

Guo Zhan interrupted his explanation and said, "I didn't say anything about you, you don't need to be like this, go home!"

Getting out of the car, Guo Zhan walked in front, Lin Tao followed, thinking about his phrase "go home", which is a bit intriguing. Before, he would say "enter the house", but now he uses the word "home". Does it mean that there is no longer objection?

But even if this is the case, Lin Tao will not think that Guo Zhan's forces will acquiesce in his relationship with Guo Yiyi when he sees that he has a good relationship with the Zhang family.In fact, when it comes to the pressure Guo Zhan has to bear, Lin Tao doesn’t need to be less. Lin Tao only bears the pressure from him alone, and now Guo Zhan not only has to bear the pressure from his wife and daughter, maybe he also has to bear the pressure from the Zhang family and the Guo family. Who made Lin Tao have a good relationship with both of them.

Thinking of this, Guo Zhan smiled wryly. If this kid got straight to the point and told him about the relationship at the beginning, so that he could have a clear idea in his heart, I'm afraid he wouldn't be so embarrassing for him.After all, as long as the banner of the Zhang family is pulled, in the capital, except for the Sun family, everyone else will pay a little bit of favor?

"Young people have a great future..." Guo Zhan sighed in his heart.

Yan Junxiu opened the door herself. She thought it was Lin Tao or her husband who came back, but she didn't expect them to come back together.

She smiled and asked, "How did you two meet together?"

Guo Zhan was somewhat dissatisfied with Lin Tao's concealment of the truth, so he snorted and said, "Ask him!"

Lin Tao sighed secretly, and said in his heart that he was still angry, and it seemed that he would have to drink more later to express his sincerity in apologizing.

Yan Junxiu was at a loss. Who is her husband playing with during the Mid-Autumn Festival?

"Lin Tao, what's going on?"

Lin Tao said: "Auntie, this matter is more complicated, and I will explain it slowly when I eat."

Yan Junxiu nodded and said: "The one that comes in, I'll wait for you two, and dinner will be served right away."

The table in the living room is full of sumptuous dishes, chicken, duck and fish, which are necessary for Chinese New Year in the north, and seafood brought by the two children from Junbei, four hot dishes and a few side dishes to accompany the wine, Five people really can't eat it.

Aunt Li's status is quite special, and she has no relatives in the capital. In fact, in the hearts of the three members of the Guo family, she is no one at all. She has long been regarded as a relative, and meals must be served at the table.

However, Aunt Li has always paid attention to this point, and she dared not behave in the slightest. She usually puts up some food and eats it in the kitchen, but today she didn't push it back for a long time, so she could only sit down and eat together.

With Lin Tao here, Yan Junxiu never stopped her husband from drinking, neither she nor her daughter drank. Finally, someone who could drink came to accompany her, and she refused to let her husband drink, that would be too unreasonable.

Taking out the good wine in her collection, Yan Junxiu opened it without asking her husband's opinion, and the aroma of the wine immediately filled the living room.

Lin Tao smelled it and praised: "Good wine!"

Guo Zhan snorted, "Of course it's good wine, but it was originally planned to be reserved for Lingling's wedding!"

"Dad...why do you still have such old thoughts, Daughter Hong!" Guo Yiling laughed.

According to legend, Nv'erhong is the wine that ancient fathers prepared for their daughter's marriage. When the daughter was very young, she bought it and buried it underground in the yard, and drank it at the wedding banquet when the daughter was married.

Guo Zhan ignored her. In his heart, he thought that his daughter already knew Lin Tao's identity, maybe even his wife, and he was the only one kept in the dark.In fact, he really wanted a wife and daughter. Even Guo Yiling only knew that Lin Tao had been to the Zhang family, but did not know the real relationship.

The wine glass in front of him was full, and Lin Tao poured it for himself again, and then quietly waited for Guo Zhan to speak.As a parent, it is customary to say auspicious and encouraging words during festivals.

Guo Zhan cleared his throat and said, "A few years ago during the Mid-Autumn Festival, there were only me, Junxiu, and Xiao Li at home. This year, not only did Lingling come back, but she also brought an extra family back..."

Guo Yiling couldn't help but interrupted: "Dad, look at what you said, it seems that what I brought back is not Lin Tao, but a child born before marriage!"

Lin Tao also smiled wryly, this old Guo also held grudges.

Yan Junxiu also said: "What you said is not level..."

Guo Zhan didn't expect that his wife and daughter would immediately object to one sentence, and he was immediately laughed out of anger. It seems that Lin Tao's status in the family will soon be higher than his own.

"Why are you so excited? I haven't finished my sentence yet. Can you just listen patiently?"

After he said that, Yan Junxiu and Guo Yiling stopped talking.

"As for the matter between Lingling and Lin Tao, I originally disagreed, but after the previous two conversations, I think Xiaolin is a self-motivated, responsible child. Although he has nothing now, he is the only one who has this There are several valuable qualities, and it is not difficult to succeed, not to mention that there are some relationships that everyone does not know on the surface, and success is only a matter of time."

Yan Junxiu said puzzledly: "I don't understand this, what do you mean?"

Guo Zhan said: "I will let Xiaolin tell you the specifics..." Then he said some words of encouragement to the young people, and then he picked up the wine glass, "Come on, today is the holiday, and the meaning of Mid-Autumn Festival is family reunion. Here we go, cheers!"

Lin Tao was excited for a while. Guo Zhan's ability to say such a thing proved that he would 100% not stop him from dating Guo Yiling.If I knew that the banner of the Zhang family was so useful, I should have pulled it out long ago!

Of course, this is just Lin Tao himself in YY. Being discovered and actively promoting a relationship are two completely different things. The former is easier for Guo Zhan to accept, but the latter will make him feel that he is pretending to be a tiger, using the situation to oppress him. Not conducive to the development of things.

Aunt Li kept her head depressed while eating, and soon she was full and left the table.

Now there are only "a family of four" left, Yan Junxiu said: "It's been a long time, can we talk now?"

Guo Zhan took a sip of his wine, tapped Lin Tao with his chopsticks, and said, "You're still not telling the truth, how long do you want to hide it?"

Lin Tao said quickly: "I really didn't dare to hide anything, but I was afraid of being misunderstood and I used the situation to pressure you, so I didn't dare to tell the truth!"

Yan Junxiu is very bad, what's going on today, everyone is doing dumb meditation.

Guo Yiling was also very curious about what was weird between her father and Lin Tao, and urged: "What's going on, tell me quickly!"

Lin Tao sighed, and first explained how he met Guo Zhan. Guo Yiling could accept this. He had thought that he was going to visit Zhang's house. Naturally, this kind of power would make friends as soon as possible.But when he heard the back, his little mouth opened into an "O" shape, and he couldn't even close it. Lin Tao actually had a relationship with the Zhang family, which is simply unbelievable!

After Lin Tao finished speaking, the three members of Guo's family fell silent. Guo Zhan knew the truth a long time ago, so there was nothing to be surprised about. He was waiting for his wife and daughter's reaction.

Guo Yiling was the first to react, and pinched the flesh on Lin Tao's arm fiercely, twisting and twisting hard, and said: "Okay, there is such a relationship, why didn't you tell me earlier?"

"I can't say it!" Lin Tao smiled wryly.

"Lingling, Lin Tao is right, if he doesn't say it's the best choice!" Yan Junxiu said, "You still don't know your father's temper? If Lin Tao used the power of the Zhang family to suppress him from the beginning, I'm afraid you will soon We were forced to break up, how could we have a chance to have the Mid-Autumn Festival reunion dinner together?"

Guo Yiling thought so too, her father has always been like this, he just couldn't stand strong oppression from others, otherwise his career would not have stagnated in the past two years.

"So, you still think about us?" Guo Yiling looked at Lin Tao.

"Yeah!" Lin Tao could only nod at this time, and he couldn't say a word wrong.

"Forget your intentions!" Guo Yiling happily picked up the cup and drank the drink.

"Are you okay?" Yan Junxiu asked.

"No more!" Lin Tao shook his head.

"It's just such a small matter, as for being so serious?" Yan Junxiu looked at her husband, "You are really making a fuss! Okay, let's eat quickly, the food is cold!" Now it seems that she is more like the head of the family.

Guo Zhan shook his head helplessly. It seemed that his position in the family was destined to be ranked fourth. If his daughter had another child, he would have to retreat further.

"Uncle, let me bring you a glass of wine!"

Lin Tao picked up the wine glass and drew everyone's attention to himself.

"August [-]th, people with a full moon should be reunited. I want to say, thanks to my uncles and aunts, who let me regain the warmth of home. I won't say more polite words. I promise to take good care of Yiling. I won't let her get hurt, and I promise to complete the agreement with my uncle, see the outcome in a year, and never let my uncle and aunt down!"

"You have said so, then drink!" Guo Zhan picked up the glass, the two collided, and drank the wine at the same time.

Yan Junxiu and her daughter looked at each other, laughed at the same time, and took a drink to accompany them.

This family dinner was the most relaxing time for Lin Tao to eat. Guo Zhan's resentment towards him became less and less as he pushed and changed cups. After drinking too much, the relationship became closer.

Guo Zhanzhen drank too much, and was still talking nonsense when he was helped into the bedroom.

Lin Tao helped to send him back to the bedroom, and when he returned to the living room, the dishes and chopsticks had already been cleaned up, so he wanted to help.

……

Today's weather is fine, the moon in the sky is big and bright, and the shadow potholes on the surface can be seen with the naked eye.

In Zhang's yard, the whole family gathered together to drink tea and admire the moon, enjoying themselves happily.

Zhang Yang is a strange person, he ran back to the room after sitting for a while, saying that he was sleepy and wanted to sleep, but in fact everyone knew that he was just an excuse, he didn't know what to do when he went back to the room.

After he left, Zhang Chaosheng said suddenly: "Dad, look at Guo Zhan..."

Zhang Tieyuan waved his hand and said, "Wait and see!"

"This year is a very important year. If you still can't move, it's probably useless in the future!" Zhang Chaosheng said.

"See what he means!" Zhang Tieyuan said calmly, "Old Guo is my senior, and Xiao Guo has a good relationship with our family in private, but they are not in the same way politically. Otherwise, do you think I will not help him?"

Zhang Chaosheng nodded and said: "Understood! Now there is an extra relationship like Lin Tao, it depends on how he chooses!"

"If it were me, I would rather wrong myself than let the banner of the Guo family fall!" Zhang Tieyuan said loudly, "Compared with personal political ideas and family honor, it is like the relationship between dust and the universe. If you can't let go of your obsession, then you are not qualified to sit on one of the seven thrones at the top of the pyramid of power, understand?"

Zhang Chaosheng nodded to be taught, knowing that the old man was not only talking about Guo Zhan, but also reminding himself.

……

People with a full moon were reunited, Guo Zhan looked at the full moon outside the window, his wife was already asleep beside him, but he couldn't fall asleep, and it would not be an exaggeration to describe his mood as tossing and turning.

"This year and next year are the most critical. If I can't move now, I'm afraid I won't be able to leave the position of Beijing official for the rest of my life!"

Guo Zhan sighed in his heart, the appearance of Lin Tao was a turning point for him, and it was also a compromise. If he wants to be in the top position, he must rely on the strength of the Zhang family!

Compromising with the Zhang family, insisting on his own political ideals, and maintaining the glory of the Guo family, Guo Zhan is deeply entangled!
