Ch. 331..340
Chapter 331: Blind Date Chapter 331: Blind Date Ye Qingwan smiled, her heart filled with warmth because of Gu Shimo’s words.
Her voice was light as she said,”Brother Shi Mo, I know that you are good to me. When I need your help, I will tell you.””
“Alright.”
Gu Shimo held her small fair hand in his palm. His dark eyes were filled with gentleness and doting towards her.
When they arrived at the hospital, the nurse was giving Gu Shimo an IV drip while Ye Qingwan sat beside him and worked on her phone.
In the quiet ward, Gu Shimo’s gaze fell gently on Ye Qingwan, who was focused on her work.
Even if she didn’t say anything, the atmosphere was warm and romantic.
10 AM.
Gu Ziyang came to the hospital with fruits to see Gu Shi Mo.
Because of Zhao Qinlan, their relationship was a little awkward.
After Gu Ziyang was done worrying about Gu Shimo’s injury, he asked unnaturally,” Brother, have you found any news about her?”
Gu Shimo shook his head.” Not yet.”
Ye Qingwan got up and went to the washroom outside. There were only Gu Ziyang and Gu Shimo in the ward.
Gu Ziyang frowned.” I don’t know where she’s hiding.”
“Ziyang, have you thought about joining the company?”
Gu Shimo looked at the infusion bottle above his head and asked calmly.
Gu Ziyang refused.” Brother, I’m not interested in business. You’re enough for the company. I’ve recently written a script for a micro movie and I’m preparing to participate in the competition.”
“Alright, then do what you like. Let me know when you need money.”
Gu Ziyang’s eyes flashed with surprise.
She said emotionally,” Brother, thank you for not hating me. I don’t need money. I have money to spend.””
Gu Shimo said calmly,” She is her, and you are you. I won’t vent my anger on you because of what she did, but I won’t let her off because of you either.”
Gu Ziyang smiled bitterly.” I know. If it were me, I wouldn’t let her go because of anyone.”
He stayed in the ward for half an hour.
When Gu Ziyang was leaving, he bumped into Leng Xiao and Yu Xin, who were carrying their child to visit Gu Shimo.
Seeing him, Leng Xiao’s expression turned cold.
Gu Ziyang took the initiative to greet Leng Xiao when they walked past each other, but Leng Xiao ignored him.
Gu Ziyang felt a little awkward being ignored.
Yu Xin answered on behalf of Leng Xiao.
Gu Ziyang walked to the elevator door and Ye Qingwan came back from the bathroom.
He hesitated for a moment and stopped Ye Qingwan.
“Wanwan, there’s something I want to tell you.”
” What is it?” Ye Qingwan asked calmly.”
Gu Ziyang said,” I wrote a script for a micro movie. I sent it to Xiao Duan last night. I want her to be the female lead in my micro movie.”
Ye Qingwan was surprised, but she remembered that Leng Xiaoduan had saved Gu Ziyang before.
She seemed to have understood why he had asked Leng Xiaoduan to be the female lead of his movie.
She smiled and said,” That’s great. Did Little Duan agree?”
“Not yet.”
Gu Ziyang lowered his gaze and looked up at Ye Qingwan with guilt in his eyes.” Wanwan, I know what she did is unforgivable, but I really think Xiao Duan is very suitable for that role. I want you to help me ask her.”
“Ah?”
Ye Qingwan was at a loss.
Gu Ziyang explained,” Leng Xiao hates me very much. I’m afraid that Xiao Duan has too many concerns. If she doesn’t like it, I won’t force her. But if she’s willing but gives up because of other reasons, I think it’s a pity.”
Ye Qingwan understood what he meant.
She nodded.” I’ll help you ask Xiao Duan later.””
Gu Ziyang said,” Wanwan, thank you.”
“I’ll tell you the results after asking, or I’ll get Duan to contact you.”
“Just let Little Duan think about it and tell me directly.”
Gu Ziyang said self-deprecatingly,” I’m afraid that my brother will be jealous and unhappy if you contact me.”
When Ye Qingwan returned to the ward and saw Leng Xiao’s family of three, she suddenly understood why Gu Ziyang wanted her to ask Leng Xiaoduan for the results.
“Qing Wan, accompany me to the washroom.”
After Yu Xin gave the child to Leng Xiao, she pulled Ye Qingwan out of the ward.
On the way to the washroom, she asked Ye Qingwan,” Wanwan, are Xiao Duan and Gu Ziyang dating?”
Ye Qingwan widened her eyes in surprise.” No, why would you ask that?””
Yu Xin gave him an expression that said,” You don’t have to hide it from me.” I heard from Ah Xiao that Gu Ziyang went to look for Xiao Duan last night. The two of them even had supper together.”
“I don’t know, and I didn’t hear Little Duan mention it.”
“Qingwan, although Xiao doesn’t agree to their relationship, I think Gu Ziyang is quite good. Xiao Duan marrying him was not marrying Zhao Qinlan, so there was no need to separate the two lovers because of Zhao Qinlan.”
“..”
Ye Qingwan didn’t reply.
Although it was a grudge of the previous generation.
But Zhao Qinlan was still alive, and no one knew where she had escaped to.
If Leng Xiao were to support Leng Xiaoduan and Gu Ziyang’s relationship, he would not be Leng Xiao anymore.
It was already very good that he did not hold a grudge or vent his anger.
They still had to get married. It was normal for them to find it difficult to accept it in the short term, not forever.
Yu Xin saw that Ye Qingwan didn’t say anything, so she bumped her lightly with her arm unhappily.” Qingwan, don’t tell me you’re against them being together?” How sad would that be? Lovers should be married, just like me and Ah Xiao, and you and Gu Shimo.”
–
At noon, Ye Qingwan sent Leng Xiaoduan a message.
She asked Gu Ziyang what he had asked her to ask.
She gave him some peeled fruits, cut them, and put them on a plate before Leng Xiaoduan replied.
[Sister Qingwan, help me tell him to find someone else.]
There were no emojis.
It was a reply after serious consideration.
Ye Qingwan didn’t know why, but she felt depressed and sad.
She frowned.
Seeing that she was staring at her phone in a daze, Gu Shimo placed a small piece of apple by her mouth.
His deep voice was extremely magnetic.” Wanwan, what are you looking at?”
Ye Qingwan smiled and ate the apple that he fed her.
“It’s nothing.”
Gu Shimo raised his eyebrows and did not stop her from sending the message. Instead, he thoughtfully fed her the apple piece by piece.
Ye Qingwan typed a message back to Leng Xiaoduan,[Gu Ziyang asked you to give him an answer after you’ve thought about it. If you don’t like the role, just reject him directly.]]
—-
At night, when Ye Qingwan was about to go to bed.
Then, she received a message from Leng Xiaoduan. To be the female lead of his micro movie. Will my brother be very angry?]
Ye Qingwan thought that she had rejected Gu Ziyang in the afternoon.
Unexpectedly, Leng Xiaoduan had not replied to him yet.
Ye Qingwan couldn’t make the decision for Little Duan.
He couldn’t give her the courage.
[Little Duan, make your own decision. No matter what decision he made, he had to consider it carefully.]
As soon as she sent the message, Leng Xiaoduan sent another screenshot.
It was a message from Leng Xiao.
The content was,[Duan, I’ve got someone to introduce you to an engineer. He’ll be waiting for you at table 10 on the first floor of 1587 at 7 pm tomorrow. Go and meet him.]]
After the screenshot, Leng Xiaoduan sent a message.
[Sister Qingwan, my brother arranged a blind date for me. I don’t want to meet him. Can you help me talk to him? If I talk to him, I’m sure we’ll quarrel.]]
Behind the text, there was a kneeling and pleading emoji.
Chapter 332: Blind Date (2) Chapter 332: Blind Date (2) Leng Xiao Duan and his elder brother had relied on each other since they were young. Leng Xiao was both the elder brother and father.
Apart from respect, Leng Xiaoduan was also a little afraid of his elders.
She didn’t dare to disobey her brother’s wishes, and she didn’t want to make him angry or upset.
Only Ye Qingwan could persuade Leng Xiao, so her first reaction was to ask for help.
After reading the message, Ye Qingwan bit her lower lip. She held her phone and looked at the chat page in a dilemma.
a clean official finds it hard to settle household affairs.
Even if she could talk to Leng Xiao, she couldn’t just question him.
Moreover, Ye Qingwan could vaguely guess why Leng Xiao was in such a hurry to ask Xiao Duan to go on a blind date.
The two most difficult things to hide in this world, other than coughing, was love.
Yu Xin had told her that in the ward during the day.
Leng Xiao Duan had been brought up by Leng Xiao. Even if Leng Xiao Duan did not say anything, Leng Xiao could roughly sense a trace of suspicion in her eyes.
More importantly, the other party still had a blood feud.
Leng Xiao had never urged his sister to get married. He did not get married because of love. He did not want his sister to follow in his footsteps.
He wholeheartedly hoped that Xiao Duan could be with someone he liked. This time, he had acted out of character and forcefully arranged for Xiao Duan to go on a blind date. He was already expressing his attitude to Xiao Duan.
Thoughts that shouldn’t be born should be nipped in the bud in time.
After thinking for a while, she replied with a message.
“Your brother is also doing this out of good intentions. Just go and meet him. Who knows what’s going on in this world? What if the other party is your fate? Why don’t I go with you?”
Leng Xiaoduan was so anxious that she stared at her phone without blinking. She kept praying that Ye Qingwan would bring her good news.
When she saw Ye Qingwan’s reply, she sat down on the bed like a person who had fallen into the water. She felt as if all her strength had been sucked out of her body. Her mind was in a mess, and she didn’t even have the strength to think.
The intelligent Sister Qing Wan must have seen through it.
Otherwise, he wouldn’t have ignored her request and even spoke up for her brother.
Another message rang. She picked it up weakly and saw that it was another message from Ye Qingwan.
“You don’t have to feel any psychological burden. It’s not like you have to do anything just because you’re on a blind date. Just treat it as meeting a client.”
Leng Xiaoduan’s heart, which had fallen to the bottom of the valley, was suddenly pulled back up by Ye Qingwan’s words.
That’s right.
Why did she have to go against her brother?
Not only did it hurt their harmony, but it also made her brother oversensitive.
Ye Qingwan promised to go with her, so she would just take it as completing her mission.
Thinking of this, her vision suddenly became clear, and the haze from before dissipated a lot.
“Sister Qingwan, you must accompany me tomorrow night.”
“Alright.”
He exited the chat interface with Ye Qingwan. As he swiped his finger, he opened the chat interface with Gu Ziyang.
[Little Duan, I want to invite you to be the female lead of my micro movie. Can you consider it after reading the script?]
She had yet to read the script that Gu Ziyang had sent her last time.
For a moment, she tried to control the urge to open it.
She knew very well that it was impossible between her and Gu Ziyang.
In the past, they were separated by a crowd, but now, they were separated by a blood feud that was even more terrifying than a crowd.
Knowing that it was impossible, there was no need to make each other suffer.
He ignored the bitterness in his heart.
It was right to listen to her brother’s arrangements.
What could truly heal a person was not time, but understanding.
Gritting her teeth, she told herself that she would listen to her brother.
Her brother would never harm her.
—-
Chapter 333: I Have Seen Too Many Men Like This Chapter 333: I Have Seen Too Many Men Like This Leng Xiaoduan felt much more at ease with Ye Qingwan’s company.
She knew that although she wasn’t ugly, she was nothing compared to Ye Qingwan, who was so beautiful.
This was also one of the reasons why she was willing to try the blind date.
They had arrived at 1587 on time.
As soon as she entered the hall, she saw a man sitting at table 10.
The other party was originally scrolling through his phone in boredom. From time to time, he would look at the time and suddenly saw two figures appear in front of him.
He looked up subconsciously. Although Leng Xiaoduan was standing in front of him and Ye Qingwan was one step behind, his gaze only stayed on Leng Xiaoduan’s face for a second.
When he saw Ye Qingwan from the corner of his eye, his eyes lit up and he stood up immediately.
“Is this Miss Leng?”
He subconsciously straightened his body to make himself look more confident, and a polite smile appeared on his face.
Although he was asking Leng Xiaoduan, his eyes were fixed on Ye Qingwan.
“I am.”
Seeing that his attention was not on him, Leng Xiao Duan heaved a sigh of relief.
Although she felt sorry for Ye Qingwan, she had to suffer for her lifelong happiness.
“Hello, Miss Leng. My surname is Cheng Mingquan and I’m a construction engineer. Nice to meet you.”
Cheng Quan took the initiative to extend his right hand to Leng Xiaoduan.
He was dressed in a well-ironed suit and wore glasses. He looked serious and refined, as if this was normal social etiquette.
Although his behavior was a little confusing, it was not too much. Leng Xiaoduan did not want to embarrass him, so he reached out and shook his hand gently.
“Hello, Mr. Cheng.”
Cheng Cheng was really quite gentlemanly.
He held Leng Xiaoduan’s hand and let go, not exceeding the rules.
“And this is?”
He couldn’t wait to let go of Leng Xiaoduan’s hand and moved his hand to the side, facing Ye Qingwan, who was one step behind.
He looked at her with burning eyes.
Ye Qingwan put her hands on Xiao Duan’s shoulders and pushed him to the seat inside. Then she sat down with him, ignoring Cheng Quan’s hand in the air and smiling at him.
“I’m here to freeload. My son has an equestrian class today. My husband took him to the horse track to ride. I’m not happy to be home alone and cook.
Originally, I was looking for Xiao Duan to have a meal together. She said that she had just booked a table here, so I shamelessly came. Mr. Cheng, please don’t mind me. I’m not good at anything. I’m number one at eating.
Just treat me as an invisible person. I’ll be in charge of burying my head and eating bitterly later.”
Ye Qingwan was good-looking and had seen many men like Cheng Quan.
He deliberately pointed out his married status.
Sure enough, Chengquan’s expression stiffened. He withdrew his hand without a trace and slowly sat down.
“Miss Leng’s friend got married so early? I thought you were a university student. It’s right for you to come here to eat. The food here is especially exquisite. Order whatever you want to eat. I’ll pay.”
However, after a moment of discourtesy, Cheng Quan returned to the normal etiquette that a gentleman should maintain.
“Let’s split the bill!”
After confirming that the other party did not care about him at all, Leng Xiaoduan relaxed and his expression became much calmer.
How can that be a good thing?
Cheng Quan expressed his objection.” I’m eating with a lady and I have to split the bill. Wouldn’t I be laughed at if word got out? It’s my honor to have a meal with these two beauties!”
Leng Xiaoduan didn’t want to get involved with him.
She could only smile.” Since Mister Cheng said so, then I’ll obey.” However, if Mr. Cheng feels that we should split the bill later, I will refund the fee to you.”
Cheng Quan laughed.” Who do you think I am, Miss Leng?”
After ordering a few of the signature dishes here, Cheng Quan even thoughtfully ordered an extra bowl of bird’s nest for each of them. The expenses here were already expensive, and a serving of bird’s nest was six to seven hundred yuan. He was really generous.
During the meal, Ye Qingwan practiced her good style of eating hard. No matter what they said, she turned a deaf ear to it, as if the food in front of her was really tempting.
Chapter 334: Want to Meet Again Chapter 334: Want to Meet Again Cheng Quan and Leng Xiaoduan chatted casually.
Although he was talking to Leng Xiaoduan, three of the five sentences were about Ye Qingwan.
For example, how did they meet, how did Ye Qingwan get married so early, and what kind of man would be lucky enough to marry such a beautiful woman.
After the meal, Chengquan asked if they wanted to go to the next stall. It was up to them whether they wanted to sing or do anything else.
Ye Qingwan suddenly received a call saying that her husband had finished his lessons with her son and was driving over to pick her up.
“I’m sorry. My husband said he’ll pick me up later.”
Ye Qingwan smiled.
Her smile made her look like a blooming spring flower. Cheng Quan’s eyes were wide open.
“Why don’t the two of you continue to make arrangements?”
Leng Xiaoduan and Cheng Quan had no interest in each other, so how could they continue to arrange for it?
“Sister Qingwan, it’s my turn to ride your car back.”
Leng Xiaoduan spoke at the right time.
Chengquan could only smile and say,”Today is not convenient. I’ll treat the two beauties to a meal next time!””
Although he said that, he was still unwilling and insisted on sending them to the door.
When he saw Gu Feng getting out of the car, he searched his mind but did not remember seeing such a person.
He was handsome and respectful to Ye Qingwan. No matter how she looked at him, she couldn’t see any intimacy between lovers.
After thinking about it for a moment, she knew that the other party was just her driver.
It was reasonable for a stunning woman like her to be chosen as a wife long ago.
If he hadn’t gone on a blind date with Leng Xiaoduan today, he probably wouldn’t have had the chance to see her so closely.
Not to mention eating together.
It seemed that she could meet Leng Xiaoduan again next time.
Looking at Leng Xiaoduan’s expression, it was obvious that he was using Ye Qingwan as a shield. What a good opportunity!
With that thought, he immediately took out his phone and called the person who introduced him.
—-
In the car, Leng Xiaoduan, who was finally free, could not help but hug Ye Qingwan and kiss her.
“Oh my god, you scared me to death. It’s all thanks to you today, Sister Qing Wan!”
Ye Qingwan’s company not only emboldened her, but also helped her identify what kind of person she was. Look, this Cheng guy has revealed his true colors all of a sudden, right?
“Now, I can finally report to my brother.”
Letting go of Ye Qingwan, Leng Xiaoduan relaxed his body and slumped backward.
“You can’t blame me. It’s not that I don’t like him, but he doesn’t like me at all.”
Leng Xiaoduan suddenly found a wonderful magic weapon. With Ye Qingwan around, she would have nothing to fear when her brother arranged blind dates in the future.
Thinking of this, she could not help but laugh out loud.
Ye Qingwan wiped the saliva off her face and saw her eyes rolling around with a smug look.
Seemingly guessing what she was thinking, he reached out and patted her body.” What are you up to this time? Next time you look for me, you’ll have to pay the appearance fee.”
Leng Xiaoduan did not expect her to see through his thoughts at a glance, so he quickly came over.
“Hero, this little girl is penniless. Why don’t you marry me?”
Gu, who was driving in front, looked at the two people playing in the rearview mirror and couldn’t help but laugh.
Gu Feng drove Leng Xiaoduan home before driving back to Ye Qingwan’s villa.
As soon as she reached home, Leng Xiao called.
“Wanwan, I heard you went on a blind date with Xiao Duan? I called Xiao Duan and she said that the other party didn’t like her at all. Why did the other party’s recommendation call and say that he had a good impression of Xiao Duan and even said that he wanted to continue meeting and understand her? What’s going on?”
Qing Wan knew that he would call, but she didn’t expect the two sides to have completely opposite attitudes.
She thought for a moment and organized her words.” Brother Leng Xiao, will you blame me for taking the initiative to go on a blind date with Xiao Duan? I didn’t expect this either. That blind date guy looked okay on the surface, but, how should I put it? It’s not that I’m narcissistic. He seems to be more interested in me. In other words, even if he really got together with Xiao Duan, what if he met someone more beautiful than Xiao Duan?”
Chapter 335: All Men Love Beauty Chapter 335: All Men Love Beauty Actually, Leng Xiao did not have much hope. How could a blind date succeed on the first try? Then there would not be so many leftover men and women in the world.
However, the other party’s attitude gave him a glimmer of hope. He thought that he had really met someone who was interested in Xiao Duan.
“Alright, I understand. It’s good that you’re going with her. You can help Xiao Duan pass the first test.”
If this person had a good attitude, he would not only notice the more beautiful Ye Qingwan, but only Leng Xiaoduan.
He didn’t want his sister to meet an unkind person, or else he would really blame himself to death.
“I’ll help her find another one.”
After hanging up the phone, Yu Xin, who had been listening attentively, came over.
“Qing Wan and Xiao Duan went for a blind date together?”
She pursed her lips as if she was complaining about this arrangement.
“How can she go on a blind date with Xiao Duan? Men were all lecherous. Which man would ignore her if she sat there? Where can I see Xiao Duan?”
Leng Xiao glanced at her. He knew that she had always been prejudiced against Qing Wan. The last time she secretly followed him to the cemetery, he called her in front of her to prevent her from being suspicious.
“Not every man is like that.”
He held back his anger, not wanting to argue with her.
“If he really likes the small end, even a man with a sense of propriety would not do such a thing.”
Yu Xin opened her mouth and almost blurted out,”What about you? When I stand with Ye Qingwan, do you see her or just me?”
The words reached his throat, but he swallowed them back in the end.
She didn’t have the confidence, and she was even more afraid of making him unhappy.
–
The next morning, when Ye Qingwan sent Zixi to school, she bumped into He Meijuan, who was sending her child to school.
The last time they had a verbal battle, Ye Qingwan warned her again.
The two of them no longer maintained their relationship on the surface. Previously, they could barely be considered acquaintances.
Now that they had just bumped into each other, He Meijuan turned her face away and pretended not to see Ye Qingwan.
Not only that, He Meijuan was also holding her breath.
Relying on the fact that there were no clear and perfect standards for plagiarism identification in the country.
Coupled with the huge amount of traffic that the renamed Qing Yunshan had brought to her, she had long ignored the possible serious consequences. She was only thinking about how to seize the opportunity to crazily attract fans.
If she had felt a little guilty about Ye Qingwan before, she had no qualms about it now.
He blatantly plagiarized Qingyun Wan’s previously published articles and did some processing to make it seem plausible, but it didn’t affect the flow of the article at all.
She logged into the public account to check the new fans. He Meijuan happily sent a screenshot to Fu Linpei.
[Miss Fu, we have five million fans now. I didn’t even dare to dream of gaining so many fans in such a short time. It’s all thanks to Miss Fu’s guidance.]
Fu Linpei looked at the screenshot and remembered that she was also a shareholder of Qingyun Cloud. She felt a surge of pride.
“Not bad. Keep working hard. I believe it will get better and better.”
Fu Linpei was soft on people. Moreover, she was now tied to He Meijuan’s interests, so she naturally had to be anxious.
[I’ll send it to Miss Xue. I hope she can sign the contract with you as soon as possible.]
This was the effect He Meijuan wanted to achieve. It was comfortable to communicate with smart people. There was no need to say it explicitly. The other party knew what you wanted to express.
Fu Linpei forwarded the picture to Xue Yunfei and asked,
“Miss Xue, based on the current trend, Qingyun will soon catch up to Ye Qingwan’s public account. She hasn’t been discovered by other investors yet. Can we arrange for her to sign the contract earlier?”
Xue Yunfei quickly replied,” It’s only five million fans, only one-tenth of his fans. Let her work harder and reach at least 10 million fans before I consider signing a contract with her.”
The last time in 1587, Gu Shimo had personally confirmed in front of everyone that he was going to marry Ye Qingwan.
Not only did Xue Yunfei not give up, but it also stimulated her inner desire to win.
Ever since she found out that her parents were not on good terms on the surface and had their own people outside, she knew.
Chapter 336: Let Gu Feng Keep an Eye on Him Chapter 336: Let Gu Feng Keep an Eye on Him Others relied on their father, but she could only rely on herself.
Her marriage must be in her own hands.
She could understand that Gu Shimo had other women.
Which outstanding man wouldn’t be adored by tens of thousands of people? The more he was like this, the more she wanted to conquer him.
How old was Ye Qingwan?
She had already given birth to a child. If she hadn’t taken the initiative to seduce Gu Shimo because she was close to him, what else could she have done?
However, Gu Shimo was a responsible man. Because of the child, he had no choice but to acknowledge this ill-fated relationship.
Just like her parents, even though they didn’t love each other, they could still get married and have children.
The more she thought about it, the more she felt that it was not worth it for Gu Shimo. There was Bai Shanshan in the first place, and then there was Ye Qingwan. In the end, Gu Shimo could only rely on her to save him.
After returning home, she began to plan hard, thinking of a way to snatch Gu Shimo over.
Since he had such a sense of responsibility, the best way was still to directly cook the rice with him.
However, it was a little difficult to implement this plan.
Plan A, Plan B, and Plan C all failed at the critical moment. She was so angry that she smashed everything in front of her.
While He Meijuan was plagiarizing without any bottom line, Ye Qingwan and Leng Xiaoduan were also desperately collecting evidence and making various color palettes. The more He Meijuan plagiarized, the more evidence she provided for Qingyun Wan.
He kept the collected evidence and sent it to Lu Mingyu, asking him to consult Ji Tianheng on whether he could use this evidence to sue Qingyun Xing for plagiarism.
Lu Mingyu replied,” Okay.”
[Come over to my house during the weekend. With you guys around, my old man and old lady won’t have to look at me all day long.]
Ye Qingwan replied with an amused emoji,”[Got it, brother.]
At the same time, in the hospital ward, Zuo Zhi was reporting some of the information he had found to Gu Shimo.
“Master, we’ve already found out that Chen Linhai has a mistress outside and an illegitimate child. Our people have already secretly brought the mother and son to South City. Also, the compensation for the accident at the construction site had been completed. Next, they would investigate the specific cause of the accident.”
Gu Shimo nodded slightly.” Be more careful. I’ll be at ease if you do your job.”
Gu Shimo had come forward at the first opportunity to promise high compensation and to pursue the person responsible for the accident at the construction site.
With a series of combined punches, the situation was prevented from expanding in time, and the accident came to a clean end.
“Oh right, there’s also Qingyun Wan. I heard that there’s a self-media company that has been plagiarizing them?”
He had mentioned this matter to Ye Qingwan twice, and each time, Ye Qingwan said that she would do it herself and did not need his help.
She was concerned about his health and shouldn’t worry too much. At the same time, she wanted to rely on her own ability to solve this matter.
At present, the definition of plagiarism in China was not so clear. If ordinary people wanted to go to court, it would naturally be a protracted tug-of-war.
However, He Meijuan probably didn’t know that her opponent wasn’t a self-employed person like her.
“Yes, Master. Do you need me to arrange for someone to take care of it?”
The Left Executive probed.
Gu Shimo shook his head. It was just a small workshop that was involved in the media industry. If the Gu Corporation were to take action, not only would they be using a sledgehammer to kill a chicken, but they would also be overestimating the other party.
“Just pay attention to let Gu Feng follow up on the progress of this matter. My woman has to be beautiful when she appears! Not only did she want to win, but she also wanted to win beautifully!”
Zuo Zhi had followed Gu Shimo for many years. There were many things that Gu Shimo did not need to point out, and he naturally understood.
“This subordinate understands.”
A little later, Ye Qingwan received a call from Lu Mingyu.
“Tianheng said that it might not be clear over the phone for a while. It’s best to arrange a time to talk in person. However, he was busy with a case at hand now. No matter how fast he was, he would have to wait for two days.”
It was useless to be anxious. He would wait for two more days to gather evidence.
“Thank you, brother. Then please let me know when you arrange a time with Great Lawyer Ji. I’ll book a table at 1587 and treat you to a meal.”
Chapter 337: The Civil Affairs Bureau Has Grown Up Chapter 337: The Civil Affairs Bureau Has Grown Up Although it was because of work, she still had to avoid unnecessary misunderstandings. When Gu Mingyu and Ji Tianheng were together, she would bring Leng Xiaoduan along to avoid unnecessary misunderstandings.
The Left Deacon’s style of handling matters followed Gu Shimo’s and was swift and decisive.
In the afternoon, he went to the airport to pick up Chen Linhai’s mistress and son and brought them to the Gu family villa.
He served her with good food and drinks.
They weren’t crazy kidnappers. They just skillfully invited Chen Linhai’s woman and child to come to South City for a vacation.
Other than being unable to walk out of the villa, there were no other restrictions on personal freedom.
Gu Ziyang was the only one living in the Gu family villa. There were many empty rooms, so he could just find a room to settle the mother and son.
Ye Qingwan came to the hospital after work to visit Gu Shimo. The latter pulled out the surveillance footage of the Gu family villa from his phone and showed it to her.
“Guess who they are?”
Ye Qingwan took the phone and saw a little boy happily playing a remote-controlled race car in the huge living room.
Beside him, a twenty-five or twenty-six-year-old woman was watching him play without blinking.
“Who are they?” Returning the phone to him, Ye Qingwan looked suspicious.
“I’ll give you two clues to guess.”
Gu Shimo kept her in suspense.” Yunhai Hotel, Chen Linhai.”
With his reminder, how could Ye Qingwan not guess?
“Chen Linhai?”
Gu Shimo nodded.” I’ve sent someone to investigate. His father-in-law is one of the shareholders of this hotel. He entered the hotel because of his wife’s status. His wife is a fierce woman. He is afraid of his wife, but he also needs her.”
“So she secretly raised someone outside and even gave birth to a son. This was his mistress, surnamed You. Their child was named Chen Tianci. What he cared about the most was his illegitimate son. He was like his life.”
Ye Qingwan couldn’t help but feel a little excited and kissed him on the cheek.
A hint of joy and heartache appeared in her eyes as she tidied his collar.
“Brother Shi Mo, you’re so seriously injured. You should have recuperated well. In the end, there are still so many troublesome things bothering you. I know that it’s all because of me…”
Seeing that she had fallen into self-blame, Gu Shimo grabbed her little hand and brought it to his lips to kiss it gently.
“It’s not because of you, it’s because of me. After all, this concerns my father’s reputation. I don’t want you to be trapped in a dilemma because of some inexplicable misunderstanding between us. In my heart, I always believe in my father’s character. I should also give you an explanation.”
Ye Qingwan shook her head and looked at him with eyes full of love.
“Brother Shi Mo, don’t say that. As long as you’re fine and we’re healthy and safe together, that’s more important than anything else.”
She recalled how she wished she could replace him when he was in a coma.
She even thought that if he was no longer around, she would not want to live anymore.
From then on, she had decided to let go of her grudge with him.
She only wanted him, no matter what mistakes his parents had made.
He was him, the person she loved deeply. She didn’t want to fuss over it anymore.
Gu Shimo’s heart was moved. He gently caressed her delicate face with the back of his hand.
“Wanwan, I owe you and Zixi too much. I didn’t even have time to make it up to you and instead, I had to make you suffer the troubles caused by the grudges of the previous generation.”
“..”
“Every day, I want to quickly go with you to get our marriage certificate so that the country’s laws can promise that our marriage is valid. I don’t want you to call me Brother Shi Mo anymore. People who don’t know the truth might think that we’re brother and sister. He’s already grown up in the Civil Affairs Bureau. Why didn’t he come over and register for us?”
Ye Qingwan was still immersed in his sad words.
Who knew that his sudden humor in the last sentence would make her sad mood disappear in an instant.
He couldn’t help but burst out laughing.
“Brother Shi Mo, I didn’t expect you to be so frivolous.”
“Who said that? I’ve always been a serious person.”
He deliberately put on a stern face and said.
A moment later, his expression changed and his gaze turned deep.
Chapter 338: Threats, Conditions Chapter 338: Threats, Conditions “I only become indecent in front of you.”
His large palm had already reached to the back of her head, grabbing it and gently pulling her towards him.
She couldn’t help but lean towards him, and what greeted her was his passionate kiss without reservation.
It had to be said that Gu Shimo’s methods were very effective.
When the Left Deacon arranged for his men to take away the You mother and son, he left a note with their contact details and told him how to meet them.
At noon the next day, Chen Linhai rushed over.
He could not let the tigress at home know that he was raising someone outside. Nothing could go wrong with his precious son.
When he got home, he saw no one but a striking message. He did not even have time to grab his luggage. He immediately booked a plane ticket online and rushed to South City.
“Mr. Gu, do you know that this is kidnapping? I can sue you!”
When he saw Gu Shimo lying on the hospital bed with a weak and easily bullied look on his face, the anger that Chen Linhai had been suppressing all the way suddenly erupted.
The Left Executive, who was guarding at the side, glared at him. He was about to speak when Gu Shimo raised his hand and interrupted him.
“Manager Chen, did you come all the way here to tell me this?”
Gu Shimo admired the other party’s extreme anger. Not only was he not affected at all, but he also looked interested.
After all, it was indeed very boring to stay in the hospital all the time.
“Is it convenient for you to call the police on your phone? He still didn’t know what number to call the police? Come, Zuo Zhi, lend your phone to Manager Chen.”
Chen Linhai, who had an arrogant look on his face just a moment ago, immediately wilted. The anger on his face quickly subsided, and he knelt down in front of Gu Shimo with a thud.
“Mr. Gu, Mr. Gu, you’re an adult who doesn’t care about petty people. What did I do wrong? Please tell me and I’ll apologize to you. Please be magnanimous and let Madam You and her son off!”
The corners of Gu Shimo’s lips curled up slightly. He looked like he was smiling, but for no reason, Chen Linhai shivered.
“Manager Chen, look at you. If you’re here, then so be it. Why are you giving me such a big gift?”
He teased her with great interest.
“There’s one more thing I have to make clear. It’s not that I don’t want to let Madam You and her son off, right? The only one who can really let them off is you, Manager Chen!”
Chen Linhai was also secretly regretting. Why did he suddenly kneel down just now?
The person in front of him clearly looked sickly. Why did he suddenly feel that his aura was a notch lower when he glanced at him?
He stood up and straightened his body. As his mind raced, he had already thought of a response.
“I want to make sure that the You mother and son are safe and sound.”
Gu Shimo shot a look at Zuo Zhi. Zuo Zhi understood and immediately turned on his phone. He brought up the surveillance footage and showed it to Chen Linhai.
“Manager Chen, don’t worry. Your lover and son are enjoying this trip to South City very much.”
Chen Linhai looked at the woman and child in the picture.
After confirming that it was a real-time image, he heaved a sigh of relief.
Just as he was about to take a look at the phone, Zuo Zhi pulled it back and turned off the phone screen.
“Hey, you…”
Chen Linhai couldn’t stop it in time, but he was helpless.
For the sake of his beloved woman and son, he had no choice but to compromise.
“Alright, I’ll tell you. Actually, Boss Gu’s wife asked me to put that letter in. She told me that the letter was a love letter she wrote to her husband and wanted to give him a surprise. She also gave me a large sum of money. I couldn’t resist the temptation of money. I thought to myself,’Isn’t it just a letter? It’s not like I’m stealing anything from it. It’s easy. I can still earn a sum of money. Why not?'”
When he started to confess, the Left Deacon had already turned on the recording pen and recorded everything he said.
“Opening a client’s safe without permission, Manager Chen, this is against professional ethics! Have you ever thought that because of this letter, a person’s innocence might be ruined?”
Thinking of how his father had been wronged for so many years and how Ye Qingwan had misunderstood him and hated him for so many years, he felt an inexplicable anger.
The aura around him instantly turned cold.
Chapter 339: Don’t Ask What You Shouldn’t Ask Chapter 339: Don’t Ask What You Shouldn’t Ask Chen Linhai was shocked by his sinister tone and stammered,
“I, I didn’t expect it to be something bad. I thought that since they were husband and wife, maybe it was because of their interest in each other. I don’t understand the world of rich people.”
Gu Shimo snorted coldly.
“I brought that letter back and had it appraised. There were only the fingerprints of my father and Ding. In other words, when Zhao Qinlan handed this letter to you, she must have been wearing gloves, right? It should have been summer then, right? Didn’t Manager Chen find it strange that he was wearing gloves in the summer?”
Chen Linhai was stunned by Gu Shimo’s question.
When Zhao Qinlan handed the letter to him, she was indeed wearing gloves. Although he had doubts, in the face of money, he subconsciously ignored it.
“Uh… Well, I really didn’t notice it at that time…” Chen Linhai’s eyes evaded his gaze. As Gu Shimo pressed on, beads of sweat appeared on his forehead.
Fortunately, Gu Shimo did not intend to keep pestering him about this problem. He said,
“Manager Chen, please wait a little longer. There will be a very important person arriving in a while. Please explain the truth to her face to face.”
The important person Gu Shimo was referring to was naturally Ye Qingwan.
The moment Chen Linhai entered the hospital, Gu Shimo had already informed Ye Qingwan to come to the hospital.
As soon as he finished speaking, the door of the ward was pushed open and Ye Qingwan’s graceful figure appeared at the door.
Perhaps he had walked too quickly, his face was still slightly flushed.
“Manager Chen?”
Although she had already accepted that the whole thing was done by that b * tch named Zhao.
However, hearing the answer from Chen Linhai with her own ears convinced her even more.
“Come on, Manager Chen, repeat what you said to me just now to this beautiful lady.”
When one was under the eaves, one had to lower one’s head.
Chen Linhai turned to Ye Qingwan and had to repeat what he had said before with a bitter face.
After hearing what he had to say, Ye Qingwan turned to look at Gu Shimo, who was lying on the bed. When their eyes met, she suddenly felt relieved, and their feelings for each other became even closer.
“Then, did Zhao Qinlan contact you again?”
Ye Qingwan didn’t have much hope and just asked around.
Chen Linhai shook his head.” Mrs. Gu said that no matter who came to open the safe, she would give me another sum of money. I tried to call her after you guys came, but I couldn’t get in touch with her. I was still wondering if she had changed her number.”
Hearing Chen Linhai’s answer, Ye Qingwan and Gu Shimo looked at each other.
This answer was within his expectations.
Gu Shimo said coldly,” After you go back, continue to keep in touch with Zhao Qinlan. Once you get in touch with her, call me immediately. If you find her, I’ll give you a reward.”
Now, Zhao Qinlan seemed to have vanished from the face of the earth. His people had searched for so long, but there was no clue at all.
He did not even care about Gu Ziyang’s biological son, Zhao Qinlan. Although he felt that the two or three shareholders of the Gu Corporation were in contact with Zhao Qinlan, he did not have any results for a while.
He, who had always been calm and composed, could not help but feel a little anxious. Naturally, he wanted to use whatever he could.
Chen Linhai didn’t want to have anything to do with him anymore, but he was forced to do so, so he could only nod and agree.
“There’s something I can’t figure out.”
Chen Linhai looked puzzled.” Isn’t Mrs. Gu your mother, Mr. Gu? Why would…”
Gu Shi Mo’s handsome face sank, his cold aura poured out.” You shouldn’t ask, speak less.””
Chen Linhai nodded repeatedly. Even if he had never seen such secrets of the wealthy, he had heard of them many times.
I really shouldn’t have said anything just now.
The Left Executive took out the printed document.
It was basically what Chen Linhai had just said.
Gu Shimo asked Chen Linhai to sign and press his fingerprint to verify the evidence so that he would not deny it.
After that, Zuo Zhi brought Chen Linhai to meet Madam You and her son and sent them out of South City.
Only Gu Shimo and Ye Qingwan were left in the ward.
“Wanwan.”
Gu Shimo took her hand and looked at her. There was an apologetic look in his eyes for hurting her back then.
Chapter 340: A Suit Position Chapter 340: A Suit Position Most of all, she felt guilty and heartbroken.
“Brother Shi Mo.”
Ye Qingwan gently covered his mouth with her other hand, stopping him from blaming her for everything.
“Is there anything else that needs to be said between you and me? In fact, you’ve been hurt even more than me.”
He had thought that she was his biological mother. He relied on her, trusted her, and loved her. Who knew that the other party hated him to the core and only wanted to use him to attack him.
Even if he was trapped in an army of thousands, it was not as good as a knife in the back of his loved ones.
He thought that she was his benefactor, but in the end, she acknowledged a thief as her mother and even caused the person he loved to die miserably.
“Brother Shi Mo, now that the truth has been revealed, it proves that Zhao Qinlan was the one who caused the car accident back then. I have to let Leng Xiao know about this. He has always thought that Uncle Gu was involved in this, so he wanted to take revenge on you.”
“Wanwan.”
“He has always been brooding about me being with you. I want to make things clear to him and resolve this knot in his heart. He won’t have to bear a grudge against you anymore.”
“Alright.”
Gu Shimo was touched, and his brows were filled with gentleness.
Although he did not care about how Leng Xiao looked at him, he did not want to make things difficult for her.
Moreover, his father had been wronged for many years. It was indeed time to prove his innocence.
Leng Xiao had always been against Gu Shimo, but Ye Qingwan insisted on being with him. He actually had a lot of complaints about Ye Qingwan.
It was like an ally who was suddenly betrayed.
Ye Qingwan could understand his feelings.
If she and Leng Xiao were to switch positions, she would probably be even more displeased with her attitude.
She couldn’t wait to tell him such great news.
However, Gu Shimo held her hands tightly and stared at her with a burning gaze.
“Now that the truth has been revealed and my father is not the murderer, do you think we should celebrate?”
“Celebrate? How do we celebrate?”
She wanted to send a message to Leng Xiao, but he deliberately did not let her go.
Gu Shimo coughed lightly and glanced down meaningfully.
“Actually, I can find a suitable position.”
This hooligan.
He was so seriously injured and still wanted to tease her.
“You really don’t want to live anymore!”
she said lightly.
He pulled her hard, and she was caught off guard and threw herself into his arms.
He let out a muffled groan, probably because he had touched his wound.
She was worried about his health and was about to ask, but he stretched out his arms and hugged her tightly.
“Of course. Wanwan, my life is yours.”
Ye Qingwan’s heart warmed.
Although they were already very close and she had heard him say many sweet nothings, he seemed to be able to hit the nail on the head every time, making her extremely touched.
“Brother Shi Mo, you said that I’m your life. Then why don’t you know that you’re also my life? Last time when you were in danger, I thought about it. If you don’t wake up, I’ll go with you. So, if you ever…”
“Don’t spout nonsense. I won’t do it in the future. I promise you that I’ll be fine.”
He placed his large hand on the back of her head and lowered his head to kiss her lips.
Ye Qingwan was aroused by his flirting.
“Even if I really die one day, Wanwan, you have to live well with Zixi, understand?”
His hoarse voice and hot breath fell into her ears.
Her expression changed slightly as she rejected the offer.
He said sternly,” You’re not allowed to die. Your life is mine. You can only die when I say so.”
What happened last time really scared her.
Someone had spent a lot of money to hire a professional killer to take his life. It could be seen how determined they were.
If he failed once, there might be a second and third time.
The current situation was that he was in the open while the enemy was in the dark.
As the saying went, it was easy to dodge an open spear, but difficult to defend against a hidden arrow.
If he didn’t find the mastermind, he would always have this worry.
He knew that she was frightened. His large palm caressed her cheek gently, his heart aching and loving.
A moment later.
He kissed her little mouth again.
