I glanced at Gongsun Lanlan, then smiled and said, "This question is actually not important."

"Why isn't it important? I think this question is very important." Gongsun Lanlan retorted.

"If you are grateful to me in your heart, then you will not have the object of revenge in your heart. On the contrary, I will become your enemy. Do you think this is not important?"

I looked at Gongsun Lanlan in front of me again and continued to speak: "Even if I become an enemy, with Aunt Gongsun's current status, I will not be afraid or need to care at all, right?"

"How do you say this?" Gongsun Lanlan glanced at me.

"Does a giant need to get along with an ant?" I smiled and played with the tea cup in my hand.

"Oh?" Gongsun Lanlan looked at me as if she was interested.

"Who is this giant and an ant in your mouth?"

"Can't Aunt Gongsun be called a giant now?" I asked back.

"The whole demon city surrendered to the aunt's feet. If the aunt could not deserve this title, no one else would be qualified, right?"

Hearing my words, Gongsun Lanlan giggled, as if it was a very happy thing to be praised by me.

"Then what you mean is that you are that ant?" Gongsun Lanlan asked, looking at my expression.

"Now it seems that I am," I replied with a shrugged.

"I can't see it at all." Gongsun Lanlan replied with a smile.

"If my aunt has enough eyesight, she should be able to see it." I continued to answer.

"I have nothing in the Demon City now. I have less than when I first entered the Demon City a few years ago. I am really just an ant in front of my aunt."

Gongsun Lanlan smiled, playing with the exquisite teacup in her hand, and wondering what she was thinking at this moment.

After a while, Gongsun Lanlan looked into my eyes and said, "As far as I know, Zhang Cheng used to be a very proud person, as if the whole city could not hold his pride."

"Oh? Have I ever seen this before? I really didn't understand it." I smiled and said.

"Of course." Gongsun Lanlan nodded.

"I think many people can see it? At least you were not a casual and self-deprecating person before. Why did your pride disappear after three years? Is this also one of the changes you made?"

"I'm not self-deprecating." I waved my hand.

"I'm just telling a fact. I think my aunt can understand the truth of what I said, right?"

"Although you have lost more, it doesn't belong to you. For you, you have gained more and more in three years. With these changes, you will be able to have more and more in the future." Gongsun Lanlan said.

"Auntie can trust me so much?" I looked at Gongsun Lanlan with a smile.

"What about that?" Gongsun Lanlan asked back.

"If this weren't the case, I wouldn't have cooperated with the girl from the Yan family. This is equivalent to an investment from me. Now it seems that I have invested very well."

"Aunt Gongsun means that you have always been standing behind me?" I glanced at Gongsun Lanlan.

"What about that?" Gongsun Lanlan asked back.

"If I hadn't been on your side, I wouldn't have agreed to your cousin's plan three years ago. Zhang Cheng, don't forget that you have such a change now, and I have half of the credit for it."

"Then I have to thank Aunt Gongsun." I squinted my eyes and smiled.

The smile on Gongsun Lanlan's face disappeared. She picked up the tea cup in front of her and took a sip. Then she stared at my face and said, "Zhang Cheng, don't you believe what I said?"

"Why don't you believe it?" I asked back.

"This is the case. Aunt Gongsun has indeed played a huge role in it. It can be said that without Aunt Gongsun, I would have died three years ago, so Aunt Gongsun, what you said is indeed correct, right, right? And I have no intention of doubting it."

"No, no, no, that's not what I mean." Gongsun Lanlan shook her head again.

"Oh? What does that aunt mean?" I seemed to have not understood what Gongsun Lanlan said.

"Zhang Cheng, you actually don't believe in your heart that I will stand on your side, right?" Gongsun Lanlan asked.

"Of course I believe it." I nodded.

"But...I believe you have been on my side."

"What do you mean?" The expression on Gongsun Lanlan's face gradually became serious, and she no longer had the previous smile.

"Maybe three years ago, my aunt was indeed on my side for part of her interests, which led to the concealment of the truth and making everyone think I was dead, and I could make enough changes in these three years." I analyzed.

"But now... if Aunt Gongsun said you were standing on my side, wouldn't it be a bit hypocritical?"

"Hyit?" Gongsun Lanlan shook her head and said.

"Of course hypocritical." I said.

"What is your identity now, Aunt Gongsun? You are now equal to the Jiang family in the Demon City. No one else has such qualifications. Apart from the previous factors, I am just a person with nothing. Do you dare to ask if Aunt Gongsun still like me now?"

"If it is really like you said, I don't need to say such things to you." Gongsun Lanlan picked up the teacup in front of her without changing her face and took a sip.

"That's because Aunt Gongsun, you are scared of me." I replied.

Gongsun Lanlan did not regard my words as I imagined as a joke, but instead squinted his eyes and looked at my expression, not knowing what Gongsun Lanlan was thinking at this time.

"How do you say this?" Gongsun Lanlan looked at me and asked.

I did not immediately answer Gongsun Lanlan's words, but analyzed: "If I was not wrong, Aunt Gongsun, after hearing that I returned to the Demon City and drove Xia Qing, who was causing trouble, out of the Phoenix Club, must have been worried? Are you always wondering when I will come to you?"

Gongsun Lanlan did not answer, but took another sip of the tea in the cup.

"Maybe Aunt Gongsun, you have been ready to welcome my arrival, but I have waited for nearly a week to come to find you. Aunt Gongsun, you must feel that I have forgotten that thing, right?" I looked at Gongsun Lanlan in front of me with a smile.
