Shi Yu said, "Teacher Zhou and I are colleagues, so of course we are familiar with each other."

Now that he has not caught up with Zhou Ran, Shi Yu is looking forward to the day when he will tell others that Zhou Ran is his partner.

Hearing Shi Yu's words, Gu Zhou and Zhang Ying were relieved.

Fortunately, it's just a colleague and nothing else.

Zhou Ran saw the great changes in the emotions on the faces of Tuesday Gu and Zhang Ying, and was curious about what was going on.

This mother and daughter had a humble and flattering attitude towards Shi Yu.

Also, with Shi Yu's status, how can this snobbish mother and daughter not support him?

Zhou Ran said to Aunt Zhou and Zhang Ying, "Second Aunt, cousin, I'm going to settle the bill and then go back. I won't accompany you."

Zhou Ran said as he prepared to go to the counter to pay.

Only then did Shi Yu find out that Gu Zhou and Zhang Ying were relatives.

He had a blind date with Zhang Ying not long ago. Although he was forced by his family, Shi Yu was still worried that Zhou Ran would be unhappy if he found out about it, thinking that he was the kind of person who treats women casually.

Thinking of this, Shi Yu became nervous and just hoped that Zhang Ying would be fine and not mention this matter.

After Zhou Ran paid the bill, Shi Yu hurriedly walked up to Zhou Ran and said to her, "Teacher Zhou, we met like this today, why don't you come to my house for a meal? I'll ask my aunt to prepare delicious food for you.

I usually eat at your house, but you never have the chance to have a meal at my house."

When Zhou Ran heard Shi Yu's invitation, he waved his hand and refused.

Shen Zhian is a very jealous guy. If he knew that she went to Shi Yu's house for dinner, he would definitely be furious.

"No, Teacher Shi, thank you for your kindness, I won't go to your house to disturb you."

"Teacher Zhou, don't bother me. If you feel uncomfortable going to someone else's house, I can invite you to a state-owned restaurant for dinner."

Shi Yu was not willing to miss the opportunity to be alone with Zhou Ran. After all, it would not be easy to find such an opportunity while waiting for Shen Zhian to come back.

Zhou Ran still refused, "Teacher Shi, you really don't have to be so polite. I can just go home and eat."

There was obvious disappointment in Shi Yu's eyes.

How could Zhang Ying on the side not see something wrong?

Shi Yu and Zhou Ran are indeed just colleagues, but they are definitely not ordinary colleagues.

The way Shi Yu looked at Zhou Ran was obviously different, and his attitude towards Zhou Ran was not what an ordinary colleague should have.

Although he didn't want to admit it in his heart, he had to admit at this moment that Shi Yu definitely had that kind of interest in Zhou Ran.

As for Shi Yu being able to look at Zhou Ran, if you think about it with your toes, it must be because of Zhou Ran's face.

Men all like younger and more beautiful ones, so it's no wonder that when Shi Yu believed in her, he didn't fall in love with her, just because Zhou Ran, a more beautiful one, was blocking her way.

Zhang Ying clenched her fists tightly. No matter how resentful or jealous she felt, she couldn't get angry in front of Shi Yu.

Putting down the jealousy in her heart, Zhang Ying put a smile on her face and said to Zhou Ran, "Cousin, I haven't seen you for a long time. It's rare for you to come to the county, so why not come to my house for dinner?"

Gu Zhou thought Zhang Ying was crazy.

Invite Zhou Ran to dinner?

How is it possible?

It's a waste of money for this damn girl to treat her to dinner.

Gu Zhou was about to have a seizure when Zhang Ying gave her a suggestive look and she shut up.

Forget it, just listen to your daughter.

Since my daughter said that, there must be a reason, and she is right.

Zhou Ran narrowed his eyes.

Zhou Ran knew very well about her second aunt's family.

Even though they are city dwellers, their families are in good condition, and they are very picky about their poor relatives in the countryside.

Especially Aunt Zhou, she doesn't like relatives from the countryside visiting her home.

Of course, it must be her second uncle's intention behind this, and he doesn't like to associate with poor relatives in the countryside.

If he could take the initiative to call her to eat today, there must be something wrong with him. I don’t know what kind of lawsuit Zhang Ying is trying to sue for.

When Zhou Ran was speculating in his mind, he saw Zhang Ying continuing, "Comrade Shi Yu, we are destined to meet again today. Why don't you and my cousin go to my house for a meal?"

Aunt Zhou Zhou now understood Zhang Ying's purpose, and her mind was spinning very quickly, and she quickly said to Shi Yu, "That's right, don't go anywhere, just go to my house for a meal.

Ranran, you haven't been to my second aunt's house for several years. Come over for dinner today, and your second aunt will cook you some delicious food. Comrade Shi Yu stopped by my house as a guest, so it's not troublesome to buy an extra pair of bowls and chopsticks.

"

If Zhang Ying invited him alone, Shi Yu would definitely not be happy.

But since Zhou Ran was invited, Shi Yu was naturally happy to go with her.

Shi Yu did not agree immediately, but looked at Zhou Ran, "Teacher Zhou, are you going?"

Zhou Ran knew that Zhang Ying and Zhou Gu Gu were obviously not targeting her but Shi Yu, so how could they fulfill their wishes.

"No, second aunt, cousin, I made an agreement with my parents. If I go home for dinner, they won't be able to see me go back, so they have to be anxious.

I appreciate your kindness and will try it again next time I have a chance."

Seeing Zhou Ran's refusal, Shi Yu said, "Since Teacher Zhou won't go, then I won't go either. Auntie, Comrade Zhang Ying, thank you for your kindness."

After being rejected by Zhou Ran, Zhang Ying bit her lower lip angrily and tried hard to control her facial expression.

In front of Shi Yu, she had to endure it no matter how angry she was.

If Shi Yu hadn't been there, Zhang Ying would have scolded Zhou Ran a few times. It was so shameless. She could invite her to her home for dinner. She should be grateful to Dade. What kind of thing could a country guy do in front of her?

Aunt Tuesday tried to persuade her a few more times, but Zhou Ran still disagreed, so Zhang Ying and Aunt Tuesday had no choice but to give up.

Zhou Ran didn't linger here any longer. After saying goodbye to Shi Yu, he left on his bicycle.

Shi Yu looked at Zhou Ran's back, feeling a little sad and lost.

Hey, Teacher Zhou just doesn't want to get close to him, so it's hard to catch him.

It's all Shen Zhian's fault.

If that guy didn't get there first, Shi Yu felt that he had a lot of confidence in catching up with Zhou Ran.

Zhang Ying looked at Shi Yu, still a little unwilling.

"Comrade Shi Yu, last time you invited me to dinner at a state-owned hotel, I didn't even invite you back. How about you come to my house this time and I treat you to a meal?"

The two were on a blind date, and Shi Yu paid for the meal.

However, Shi Yu felt that since he was a grown man and his family was not short of money, it was appropriate for him to pay the bill for a blind date and dinner.

He didn't plan to have more contact with Zhang Ying, and naturally he didn't want to invite her back.

Shi Yu shook his head, "No, it's just a meal. I can still afford it. I have other things to do, so I won't talk to you."

With that said, Shi Yu ignored Zhang Ying and went to the counter to choose something.

Zhang Ying was not a fool, so she naturally felt that Shi Yu's attitude towards Zhou Ran was different from hers.

The man she liked turned out to be Zhou Ran, which Zhang Ying found both annoying and ridiculous.
