Chapter 148 The Confusing Love Story

Zhang Haochen recognized Gu Tingzhou, but that didn't stop her from asking even though she knew the answer. After all, Gu Tingzhou had made her nervous before. She asked with a little doubt, "Who is this?"

"Dean of the branch, Gu Tingzhou."

"Beyblade player Gu Tingzhou."

Before Gu Tingzhou could speak, the other two answered for him. For some reason, he suddenly felt relieved. It seemed like a good experience to have someone help answer questions.

"Gu Tingzhou, director of the Tuyou City Research Institute branch." Someone else answered. That was what someone else said. Zhang Haochen asked him, and it would be rude if he didn't answer.

"Oh, you are all deans, but I am not one."

Zhang Haochen's voice, tone, and the content of the sentence itself were all inconsistent with her actual age, but very consistent with her appearance and age.

Zhao Yuxi didn't think Zhang Haochen would act like a spoiled brat in front of her husband's colleagues. This was too stupid, and not something a person who could help her husband get a promotion and a raise would do. But it was difficult to find out her mistakes.

What went wrong? Was it because this person's appearance was very deceptive? Even if I used synesthesia, I couldn't see any valuable information? That's impossible. Isn't my asymptote equal to everyone? Think about it from another angle. Even with my synesthesia, I couldn't find any mistakes in her. Would the two boys next to her think that what she said was appropriate?

There is no need to say whether it is appropriate or not. A person's expression, emotions, movements, and eyes can betray a lot of information. Zhao Yuxi mobilized the eyes of the cells and carefully looked at the external performance of Gu Tingzhou and Ye Lianshi. The facts were just as she thought. It was indeed difficult for others to notice the abnormality in Zhang Haochen. Even she herself could not accurately respond to this abnormality. This was a person that even she could not see clearly.

Zhao Yuxi suddenly felt upset. She wanted to return to the institute right away and talk to the dean about Zhang Haochen's crimes, even though there was no evidence to prove that Zhang Haochen had stolen the seal and files.

"Dean Zhao Yuxi, I heard Ye Lianshi mention you. He said you are a person with high emotional intelligence."

High EQ? Gu Tingzhou disagrees with using these four words to describe Zhao Yuxi: Is her EQ high? Why can't I see it?
"No, no, I don't have a high EQ. Madam Ye, I saw your flower tree from a long distance away. Can you take us to see it up close?"

When you look at the wisteria tree from a distance, you can only see the tree itself. If you walk under the tree, you can see the flower pots and the plants in the pots.

It’s not that Zhang Haochen can’t cover the flowerpot completely, but most of the covering methods are not effective against the ancients. This is not because their observation ability is stronger, but because their destructive ability is stronger.

The tree just grew there. Although it was spectacular and miraculous, it was barely acceptable. But if it was cut down, all kinds of problems would surface and could not be explained at all. If a third-level ancient insisted on seeing the flowers, he could come at any time, but she couldn't be at home all the time and be on guard at all times. Instead of waiting for the other party to sneak in and destroy it while she was away, it would be better for her to bring him there in person. At least, when she was there, she could play a certain supervisory role.

Considering these reasons, Zhang Haochen agreed to Zhao Yuxi's request with great pride: "The wisteria tree in my home is the largest in the world. Let's go and see it together."

The four of them walked under the wisteria tree.

Zhao Yuxi is not sure whether it is the largest wisteria tree in the world, but standing under the tree is indeed more shocking than looking at the photo.

Thousands of wisteria branches hang down like a curtain of rain, magnificent and dazzling.

The sunlight flowed like water, gathering at the top of the tree and flowing along the branches, giving some bright glow to the hanging flower pots.

Each flower pot is like a separate room, and the temperature, humidity, light intensity... in each "room" are different.

There are many plants in the flowerpots that are not supposed to bloom in this season, but all the flowers here seem to have just bloomed the last moment, and they are in their prime every moment.

Zhao Yuxi had read many profiles and abilities of ancient people, but none of them could achieve this level. It didn't make sense to say that everyone has their own specialties. Making the wisteria tree grow to more than 20 meters high and dividing space were two completely different abilities. Add in the ability to control the opposite sex, and that's three abilities.

In addition to the spokesperson, there are a very small number of people who have mastered the strengthening method of realizing their wishes. However, the spokesperson has more power, more resources, and is more likely to find the required asymptote from the crowd. But how can Zhang Haochen do this? Is it because her husband is the spokesperson? But this doesn't make sense.

Because the relationship between the two of them was not established from the beginning, but after Ye Lianshi became the dean of the branch. Why did Ye Lianshi want to marry her? Was it because of her work ability, or because he wanted to find a good wife? Or because he liked her appearance?
In terms of appearance, Zhang Haochen's appearance is not very stunning. Moreover, Ye Lianshi's asymptote can control the opposite sex. In principle, he cannot be defeated by the beauty trap. Secondly, as the dean and spokesperson of the branch, he definitely has no shortage of the company of the opposite sex in his daily life. As long as he wants, there are countless people willing to do these things.

Zhao Yuxi thought about it, but still couldn't come up with a reliable conclusion. She stared at Zhang Haochen for a while, feeling more and more confused.

This person looks innocent, young, weak, and harmless, which makes people want to protect her. But it's just an appearance. The heart hidden under the appearance is definitely another look.

Ye Lianshi is not a fool. He must know that Zhang Haochen has a purpose in approaching him. Why is he willing to keep such a dangerous person by his side? It would be fine if he just kept her by his side, but why must they be married? If they really want each other, then they can just hide it, the deeper the better. As long as Ye Lianshi does not announce to the public that she is his wife, who would think of such a relationship?
Could it be that Ye Lianshi's first love looked like this, so he particularly liked Zhang Haochen? This is not reasonable. Inappropriately speaking, the current Ye Lianshi has the ability to marry anyone he has ever loved, and no one can refuse his invitation. In this case, he should not look for a substitute, but the person in the past. Is it true that there is no need for a reason to like someone?
Zhao Yuxi had many questions in her mind, and she couldn't see through Zhang Haochen.

Zhang Haochen looked at Zhao Yuxi for a few times, but he didn't see her too clearly: her face was between adult and child, mature and immature, with a bit of refinement mixed in the haggardness. Gentleness on her body had slightly changed, part of it turned into charm, and the other part was indifference. Can an indifferent person also have high emotional intelligence?
