Chapter 447 Guan Juer 18 (The End)
Guan Juer thought for a moment. At this time, being abroad and knowing someone, it was probably Andy.
Before she could guess, Cheng Lu said directly, "It's the neighbor downstairs in the Joyful Song residential complex where you live. The one who took me upstairs last time, what's her name, An, An something?"
"Andy!"
“Yes, Andy, guess who I saw her with?” Cheng Lu’s tone was somewhat subtle.
Guan Juer knew that Bao Yifan had gone after Andy, but she couldn't say she knew right now: "I don't know, who is it? And why does your tone sound strange?"
Cheng Lu continued, "It's Bao Yifan, do you remember him? You met him at the restaurant last time."
"That ex-girlfriend of yours, the one you don't even know about?"
"Yeah, I never expected that the two of them would actually spark a romance, and that I would run into them while we were out having fun."
"Haha, that's really unexpected."
Guan Juer resumed eating sunflower seeds; after all, this was nothing new to her, and she already knew about it.
However, thinking about it from Cheng Lu's perspective, it is indeed more interesting.
The two chatted for a while longer, sharing some everyday moments, before hanging up.
During dinner that evening, Guan's mother looked at Guan Juer and suddenly asked, "Guan Guan, have you met anyone you like in Shanghai?"
Before Guan Juer could speak, she continued, "Your father and I are at home, and many people want to introduce you to potential partners, or to find spouses for their own sons."
"Guan Guan is still young, there's no rush," Guan's father said.
"We're not in a rush, but we can take a look first. It would be best to find someone with similar conditions to Guan Guan, someone with good character, a stable job, and whose parents are easy to talk to."
"That's true, but it also depends on whether Guan Guan likes it or not."
Guan's mother looked at Guan Ju'er: "What are your thoughts?"
"Mom and Dad, I have a boyfriend."
Upon hearing this, Guan's parents were taken aback for a moment before saying, "When did this happen? Why didn't you tell us, child?"
"I'm thinking of telling you once things have settled down."
Mrs. Guan immediately smiled and asked, "Where are you from? How old are you? What do you do for a living? What school did you graduate from?"
Guan Juer felt somewhat helpless under the barrage of questions, but since they didn't usually pry into her affairs, she didn't mind being asked about this.
After thinking for a moment, he answered, "His name is Zhou Ling. He's from Beijing, 27 years old this year. His family is in business, and he graduated from Peking University."
"That sounds nice, and you seem like a good match, but Beijing is a bit far from us."
Mr. Guan also asked, "How is the person?"
“He’s a really nice guy. I’ll have him come to our house to pay a New Year’s visit after the holiday. You can see for yourselves then.”
Guan's mother said with a hint of reproach, "You have to see for yourself. There are only a few days left and we still need to make preparations. You didn't ask and you didn't tell us earlier."
"Hehe, I was thinking of telling you after the New Year."
"Tell Mom again if she has any photos, and if she's tall or short, so we can know more about her."
Guan Juer had no choice but to open her phone and show them photos of herself and Zhou Ling from their outing.
"He looks quite tall, almost half a head taller than you, and handsome too." Mrs. Guan couldn't stop smiling.
Guan Juer is a little over 1.7 meters tall, while Zhou Ling is over 1.85 meters tall, a difference of more than ten centimeters between them.
She didn't say anything and continued eating, watching her parents looking at Zhou Ling's photo and discussing it.
When Guan Juer was chatting with Zhou Ling before going to bed, she mentioned this to him.
"It sounds like your parents are fairly satisfied with me?" Zhou Ling said with a smile on his face on the other end of the video call.
He was wearing navy blue pajamas, his collarbone slightly exposed, his handsome face smiling, and his Adam's apple bobbing slightly as he spoke, making him look somewhat tempting.
Guan Juer wasn't paying much attention to his words; she was currently staring at his neck. "Hmm."
Zhou Ling noticed her gaze and laughed, "What are you looking at?"
"You're quite a sight to behold," Guan Juer said, meeting his teasing gaze.
Upon hearing this, Zhou Ling's smile widened even more.
He looked at the person opposite him, dressed in cute, fluffy pajamas, a style somewhat different from his usual one, and felt a little itchy: "You make me want to come find you tonight."
Guan Juer shook her head: "The New Year is coming soon, so it's not possible now. We'll see each other in a few days."
"Okay." Zhou Ling said with a hint of regret.
"I'm going to sleep now, you should go to sleep early too."
"OK, good night."
After a lively Spring Festival, Zhou Ling visited our home with gifts.
He was good-looking, had good qualities, and was polite, so he naturally won the favor of his family.
When he said he would be living in Shanghai in the future, his parents also liked Guan Juer very much, and Guan's parents had no more worries.
A few months later, the two families arranged to meet for a meal and discuss the couple's marriage.
Zhou Ling's parents are the kind of open-minded people who travel all year round, so they don't care where Zhou Ling lives.
Six months after their marriage, Guan Juer's mission was finally accomplished.
She decisively treated herself to a trip first, and Zhou Ling also handed over all his work to his agent, accompanying her everywhere.
Sometimes, they would invite Xiao Qi and Yun Shang to go out together, and Cheng Lu would also go out with them when she had free time.
For example, when you go out to sea on a yacht, it's more lively with more people.
Since her marriage, Guan Juer has not returned to Ode to Joy, nor has she paid much attention to the situation of the main characters.
All we know is that Qiu Yingying got married and moved out of Ode to Joy, and a few years later Fan Shengmei also moved out.
Guan Juer stopped renting out the 2202 apartment and instead sold it directly.
She kept 2303 instead of selling it; it was a house she had lived in for a while, and she always felt it held some special meaning.
After the marriage, she and Zhou Ling either lived in Tinghua or in a villa in another community, which Zhou Ling had prepared as their marital home.
However, most of the time, they travel all over the country.
When she was old and on her deathbed, Guan Juer first saw Zhou Ling off.
They had already disposed of their assets. Apart from the portion of the family property inherited by their children and grandchildren, she converted the rest into collectible items and stored them in her spatial storage.
Xiao Qi's restaurant has become a national chain with a huge amount of capital. Guan Juer and Yunshang both have shares in it.
The two of them finally decided to donate the money directly, as a way to accumulate merit.
Back in the system space, Zhong Ning said, "Xiao Qi, let's settle the account!"
Xiao Qi returned first, having already put away her playful nature: "Okay, host."
