Zhou Anguo had no other choice. What could he do? No matter how powerful he was, he couldn’t control Zhou Jingyun. No matter how much he quarreled with Zhou Jingyun, they were still father and son. There couldn’t be any enmity between them. However, if he directly attacked Jiang Tong now, Zhou Jingyun would probably turn hostile and leave with her! He wanted to expose Zhou Jingyun’s fake girlfriend trick now, so he had to let the two of them sit down first and have a good talk!
“Not bad. To be able to catch Zhou Jingyun’s eye, it seems that you are indeed extraordinary, Miss Jiang,” Zhou Anguo said with a smile. He admitted that Jiang Tong was very good-looking. She was even better looking than most of the socialites in City Z. However, Zhou Jingyun was not a person who only looked at appearances.
“I’m alright. I am quite capable but I definitely can’t compare to you, Uncle,” Jiang Tong answered with a smile. As she spoke, Jiang Tong habitually crossed her legs. Her posture while meeting her boyfriend’s parents could be said to be very unruly. It was too relaxed and too casual. Zhou Anguo was not angry when he saw it. He even found it a little funny inwardly because the more relaxed Jiang Tong was, the more it proved that her relationship with Zhou Jingyun was fake! He hoped that she would reveal even more flaws!
Zhou Jingyun also felt that something was wrong when he saw Jiang Tong’s crossed legs. He touched Jiang Tong slightly with his hand and turned his head to give Jiang Tong a look, signaling for Jiang Tong to uncross her legs. However, Jiang Tong only glanced at Zhou Jingyun, then, she retracted her gaze and ignored him.
Zhou Anguo saw this scene. At first, he felt that Jiang Tong didn’t listen to Zhou Jingyun. Could it be… However, on second thought, that wasn’t right. Zhou Jingyun’s character meant that he wouldn’t find a woman who wouldn’t listen to him, that would prove that their relationship was fake! Jiang Tong didn’t meet Zhou Jingyun’s requirements in every way!
Zhou Mingfei stood to the side. He didn’t sit down. He couldn’t sit still. He was too nervous. He wasn’t afraid of anything else, he was only afraid that Zhou Jingyun would quarrel with their father again and smash his newly renovated place into pieces.
“Miss Jiang, how long have you been with my son, Zhou Jingyun?” Zhou Anguo asked first.
“A few months. I met him at the campus job fair. At that time, Zhou Jingyun went to our school to recruit…” Jiang Tong casually said a few things and answered Zhou Anguo’s questions one after another. It was as though he was checking her household registration. However, none of this was important. After all, this was a necessary procedure when she was meeting her boyfriend’s parents for the first time.
Hearing that Jiang Tong studied computer science at university, Zhou Anguo smiled. “Computer science is pretty good. Now that technology is developing fast and everything is regulated by the Internet, Miss Jiang, do you have any plans for the future?”
“My current plan is to help Zhou Jingyun’s company go public,” Jiang Tong said with a smile.
“Go public? Miss Jiang, you talk big,” Zhou Anguo sighed with a smile because he couldn’t say it without any expression. If he said it without any expression, it would sound like a mockery. Zhou Jingyun would definitely quarrel with him.
“By the way, Miss Jiang, I haven’t asked you yet. What does your family do?” Zhou Anguo changed the topic. Jiang Tong maintained a smile without changing her expression. She answered, “They run a noodle shop in a small county town. It’s just a small business to make a living.”
Zhou Anguo’s expression changed. In fact, he knew everything. Zhou Mingfei had investigated everything about Jiang Tong’s family background, and Zhou Anguo had seen the documents on it. The reason why he asked these things that he already knew was that he was waiting for Jiang Tong to lie. As long as Jiang Tong lied, he could turn hostile and expose Jiang Tong! However, except for the time when Jiang Tong started going out with Zhou Jingyun, which no one could find out, Jiang Tong answered all the other questions truthfully. She didn’t seem to mind telling a big shot like Zhou Anguo that her family ran a noodle shop, and she didn’t mind letting others know about her family background!
Zhou Anguo adjusted his state of mind and continued to ask, “Then how are your parents?”
Jiang Tong nodded and answered truthfully. Her parents were both in good health. Jiang Tong was very calm, but Zhou Jingyun’s expression didn’t look right. He knew his father well. He knew that the more Zhou Anguo acted like this, the more it meant that he had ulterior motives! Under such circumstances, as long as Jiang Tong said one wrong word, it would be over if Zhou Anguo caught the flaw!
This conversation continued for more than ten minutes, and Zhou Anguo was still asking Jiang Tong in a casual tone, “Then, do you have any hobbies, Miss Jiang?”
“Yes, I have many,” Jiang Tong smiled and listed, “Calligraphy, painting, music, fighting, guns, racing…”
“Wait a minute.” Zhou Anguo suddenly interrupted Jiang Tong and fixed his eyes on Jiang Tong’s face like a wolf. “You know about guns?” He finally found a loophole! With Jiang Tong’s family background, it was impossible for her to come into contact with guns!
