I saddle up for my rival [Rebirth]

"Is there a framing shop on this street?" Liang Ze asked Guan Ling when he left the shop.

Guan Ling glanced at the painting in his hand, and stared exaggeratedly, "You don't mean to frame it, do you?"

Liang Ze shook the painting in his hand, "I thought the meaning of my words was obvious."

Guan Ling twitched the corner of his mouth in embarrassment, "... yes," he searched his memory hard, "there seems to be a calligraphy and painting shop at the crossroad ahead, and it should be able to mount it."

Liang Ze threw the car keys into his hand, "Lead the way."

Ever since he found out that Liang Ze was interested in his paintings, Guan Ling had mixed feelings. His love rival turned into his fan, no matter how he looked at it, he felt awkward.

This calligraphy and painting shop is very big, when Guan Ling parked the car and entered behind Liang Ze, he happened to see a fat middle-aged man holding a bowl with a big head, sipping powder one mouthful at a time, he seemed to be the boss.

"Just look at it." The boss sucked the powder intently, and said to them without looking up.

"Can this be framed?" Liang Ze knocked on the table, opened the painting and said to the boss.

The boss glanced up at the painting in his hand, "Yes." After speaking, he lowered his head and sucked the powder.

"Then let's do it." Liang Ze took out his wallet, and impatiently put a stack of banknotes to his bowl, "Now."

The boss's eyes lit up, he wiped his mouth with one hand and reached out with the other hand to pick up the money on the table, counted roughly with his fingertips, his small eyes were closed with a smile, "When do you want it?"

"Now." Liang Ze said concisely.

"Hand-framing can take three or four days at the fastest," the boss said with a wider smile on his face. "If you are in a hurry, you can only mount it by machine, but the quality is definitely not as good as pure handwork."

Liang Ze waved his hand, "Whatever, hurry up," he raised his wrist to look at the time, "How fast is the frame?"

The fat boss glanced at the size of the drawing in his hand, "Half an hour."

"Okay," Liang Ze said, "Let's do it."

Guan Ling stood beside Liang Ze like a sugarcane and watched the boss busy. He was quite curious about Liang Ze's behavior, and tentatively said, "It's easier to restore after manual mounting, so we shouldn't be in such a hurry, right?"

"It will be useful in a while." Liang Ze said while staring at the machine with folded arms.

Guan Ling wanted to ask what was the use, but after thinking about it, Liang Ze probably wouldn't be able to answer, so he simply changed the subject, "Are there any plans for a while? Did you invite Ms. Zhao to dinner again?"

"Almost." Liang Ze turned his attention to him this time, "Just follow me for a while, and you can follow up on what I say. Remember, talk less and do less."

Liang Ze made the atmosphere so serious that Guan Ling became a little nervous, and asked while nodding, "Will there be any parents at dinner today?"

Meeting the parents was not included in his plan!

Liang Ze didn't seem to want to say more, so he raised his eyebrows and said, "You'll know in a while."

After the painting was mounted, Liang Ze put it in the back seat of the car, "Go to Yuyuan."

Guan Ling paused as he pulled the car door. Yuyuan is the most luxurious villa area in the city. An ecological garden was set up to provide fresh fruits and vegetables to the head of households in Yuyuan. Some people once said that Yuyuan is an affordable pension base for the rich, while others said that Yuyuan is a paradise out of reach for the poor.

Guan Ling knew how strong his background was when he knew Liang Ze, and he was not surprised to learn that he had real estate in Yuyuan, but this knowledge seemed to instantly close the original gap between them. He was jealous that Liang Zeneng had Zhou Jinhang's admiration, but he was also jealous that his fate was completely different from his own.

"Why are you in a daze?" Liang Ze knocked on the steering wheel, "I don't know the way?"

"Ah..." Guan listened back to his senses, with an awkward smile on his face at the right time, "I've only heard of it but never been there."

"Then turn on the navigation." Liang Ze said.

Guan Ling honestly turned on the car navigation, started the car after planning the route, and asked the people beside him curiously, "Are you going to Mr. Liang's house?"

Leaning on the seat, Liang Ze closed his eyes and fell asleep, humming from his nasal cavity as an answer. Seeing that he didn't seem to want to chat, the officer had no choice but to swallow back the doubts in his heart.

When the A8 drove into Yuyuan, it was already the beginning of the lights. The retro European street lamps on both sides of the road were glowing with a pale halo. Three or two moths flapped their wings and lay on top of them, as if they wanted to absorb all the light into their bodies. They looked stupid and sad. .

"Keep going," Liang Ze opened his eyes at some point, commanding the officer to listen, "just drive to the one with the most lights."

Guan Ling was quite surprised by this description, but he followed the instructions. The car continued to drive for seven or eight minutes, and the house with the most lights that Liang Ze said came into Guan Ling's eyes.

It's not just that the lights are much brighter, it's like a small castle.

It is not appropriate to say castle, but Guan Ling couldn't find a more appropriate word for a while.

The structure of this house is different from the few European-style villas seen on the road. It is a completely Chinese-style building with red tiles and cornices. Even the street lamps at the entrance of the courtyard are lampshades made of short stones. Take a closer look. It's a bit like other courtyards where ancient people lived.

"Hey!" Guan Ling couldn't help but sigh, "Is the imperial palace?"

Liang Ze glanced at him, "Just drive in."

Guan Ling glanced at the light brown wooden sign next to him when he drove the A8 into the big open iron gate. The word Liang Zhai was quietly engraved on it. It seemed so small that it was almost ignored by others, but it carried an enviable brilliant.

"So many cars?" Guan Ling sighed while looking for a vacant seat, "Is your relatives too many?"

"It's just an old house, and our family members are thin and have no relatives." Liang Ze answered his questions one by one with a deadpan expression, and then urged, "Don't ask anything after you go in, and," he paused for two seconds Then he raised his hand and tapped on Guan Ling's heart, "Put your curiosity back, and keep your mouth shut when you shouldn't be talking, understand?"

Guan Ling nodded dully, looking at Liang Ze's expression, he always felt that this trip was not easy.

"Pick up your things." Liang Ze pointed to the painting on the back seat and got out of the car without hesitation.

Guan Ling couldn't help but frowned, this man really treats me like a horse boy!

Although Guan Ling was a little upset, she still took the painting and locked the car. Seeing that Liang Ze was standing not far away, she didn't intend to go in first, so she stepped forward to block him, "Then what? It's the door, why do you have to tell me what you want to do today? If I don't perform well in a while, you can't blame me."

The door facing them was ajar, and from the door you could see the blurry scene of the bright lights inside, and occasionally you could hear the laughter of some men and women.

"Today is my grandfather's birthday," Liang Ze said, staring at the door, "70 years old."

"Damn it!" Guan Ling's eyes widened in astonishment, "So... I'm going to act out the scene of meeting the parents today?"

Before Liang Ze could answer, Guan Ling was a little confused, "Grandpa's birthday was full of guests, and all family and friends gathered together to come out publicly? It's a good idea, but you want to avoid the blind date arranged by your family. Is it too uneconomical to engage in such a big fight? If your parents and relatives want to take care of your family in a while, should I act out a tragic scene of being beaten by a mandarin duck and begging for help with my nose and tears on my knees or stand still? Are you watching your monologue?" Guan Ling seemed to feel inappropriate after finishing speaking, shaking his head and said, "Your grandfather is already seventy, how is his health? Does he have high blood pressure or heart disease? , I'm afraid..."

"Don't be afraid." Liang Ze rolled his eyes and interrupted him quite speechlessly.

Guan Ling was taken aback for a moment, and then said with a clear smile, "I know, she must have told her family about the whole process of the blind date after she fought with Zhao Yihuan last time, have you done a good job with your family these two days? ?”

Mr. Liang's [-]th birthday, with the status of the Liang family in this city, anyone who can make some friendships has to squeeze in to congratulate him, and the Zhao family, which the old man likes most, is naturally also invited. I'm really worried about this matter, and I can't help but laugh out loud when I hear Guan Ling's stern analysis, "Take your imagination away first, and save it for writing the script later, maybe I can come out when I'm in a good mood." A little investment in you."

Guan Ling knew that she had been teased, and was quite embarrassed, "I saw you were so nervous, I thought you were going to come out publicly, and I was shocked."

"Why did you come out publicly?" Liang Ze looked at him amusedly, "Did I tell you that I like men?"

"Just guessing," Guan Ling blinked, "to the extent that your family is satisfied with that Miss Zhao, she should come today, right? You brought my fake boyfriend to such an important occasion, and you still dressed It’s so formal, I can only think about it in that direction.”

"Just be prepared." Liang Ze said as he stepped up the stairs, "This kind of occasion is not suitable for conflicts, you have other uses."

Why does this sound so awkward?Guan Ling frowned unhappily, raised her legs and reluctantly followed.
