”Come! Let's raise our cups together and toast to Xiao Qiu! ” Gui Herong raised his wine cup and said to everyone.

”Thank you, Uncle Gui, Aunt Lin and Senior Lan Ya.” Ye Qiu picked up his wine cup and said politely.

Lin Mu Xue and Gui Lanya were drinking red wine, but drinking one cup of wine didn't really matter. On the other hand, Ye Qiu and Gui Herong were drinking Maotai, which had a very high degree of tolerance. When the wine entered their stomachs, they immediately felt a burning sensation in their stomachs, and felt a little uncomfortable.

”Although this old Maotai has a sweet taste, the quantity is very high. A person with a poor capacity for alcohol can be knocked out in three cups. Xiao Qiu, it's your first time drinking this kind of wine, so you might not get used to it. A bite of food would be more comfortable. ” Gui Herong said to Ye Qiu.

”Come, Xiao Qiu, try Auntie Lin's cooking. If the wine doesn't taste good, then so be it. It's the same for the food. ” Lin Mu Xue used her chopsticks to pick up a piece of spicy rabbit meat and placed it in Ye Qiu's bowl as she asked with concern.

”Thank you, Auntie Lin!” Ye Qiu ate a mouthful of food and immediately felt much better, ”Aunt Lin, luckily you didn't open a restaurant, if you did, I'm afraid that Peace Hotel would have closed. The chef in the restaurant could only clean up and go home.”

Ye Qiu's words directly reached Lin Mu Xue's heart. Lin Mu Xue was elated to the point that she even held food for Ye Qiu, and couldn't stop urging Ye Qiu to eat more, to taste this, to taste that, to see that. Gui Lanya was feeling extremely jealous and jealous.

”Come, Xiao Qiu, let's toast.” Gui Herong raised his wine cup and said to Ye Qiu.

Ye Qiu and Gui Herong looked at each other and laughed, then drank all of the wine in the cup without leaving a single drop behind.

Just then, Gui Herong recalled: ”More than twenty years ago, Xiao Qiu's parents and I were both good friends for life. Although we haven't met for more than ten years, our relationship hasn't diminished. Even if he wants me to die now, I will die without hesitation. ” Ouyang Zheng drank a mouthful of wine, his eyes gleaming with passion. He said excitedly, ”I think he'll do the same as me. He'll do a lot of things for me.”

”A lot of things”, while not equal to ”anything,” are sometimes more believable than ”anything.”

”Xiao Qiu, do you still remember when I was young, I hugged you together with your Aunt Lin?” Gui Herong smiled and asked Ye Qiu.

Ye Qiu laughed and shook his head, indicating that he really did not remember.

”It's normal for you to not remember, because you were only one month old at that time. How can a baby who has just reached the full moon remember? ” Gui Herong laughed, and the scene of the past couldn't help but appear in his mind.

After a while, Gui Herong returned from his memories, and continued: ”That was the last time I saw your parents, in a blink of an eye it had almost been twenty years. You look like this now. If I meet you on the street, even if you knock my head off, I won't be able to recognize you. You and Xiao Ya are alumni of the school, so you're naturally also a student of North Anhui University. You definitely know my identity, right? ”

Ye Qiu nodded. Although he knew the situation at the school like the back of his hand, Ye Qiu was still well-informed. If someone within the North Anhui University wasn't considered ill-informed, then they ought to know that Gui Herong was the Principal of the North Anhui University.

”If you go to my school, I will do my best to make things convenient for you.” Gui Herong said to Ye Qiu.

”Thank you, Uncle Gui!” Ye Qiu's thanks was interrupted by him, ”Don't thank him yet. When I said I would give you convenience, I meant that I would only give you convenience, not privilege. Do you understand? ”

Ye Qiu nodded and replied respectfully: ”Ye Qiu understands! I will pay attention to my words and deeds. ”

”Very good! I also believe that the sons of Ye Tianming and Murong Qiu are definitely not someone who can cause trouble and not learn anything. ” Gui Herong paused, and continued, ”After saying so much, it is just an opening statement. Now, I just started talking about it. ”

Hearing Gui Herong's words, Ye Qiu could not help but sit up, and his breathing became hurried.

”More than twenty years ago, Ye Tianming, Zhang Xiaozhou and I were sensible and had been classmates for four years. The three of us became more and more close to each other, and the three of us were like brothers by blood. Although we weren't related by blood, we were brothers by blood, so Xiao Ya and Xiao Qiu can call each other younger brother.” The moment Gui Herong said this, Gui Lanya's face changed, and his face was filled with shock.

”Ye Qiu? ”Younger brother?” Hearing Gui Herong's words, Gui Lanya felt as if his head was about to explode after going through a few rounds. However, no one could understand her thoughts except herself.

Ye Qiu looked at Gui Herong in shock and said excitedly: ”Uncle Gui, what did you say just now? Which one of you are my father's sworn brother? ” As if he hadn't heard Gui Herong's words just now, Ye Qiu couldn't help but ask.
