Ch. 361..370
Chapter 361: Aren’t You Afraid That You Can’t Take Gu Shimo Down Chapter 361: Aren’t You Afraid That You Can’t Take Gu Shimo Down Recently, Jiang Min had been indulging in voting for young hunks at home all day long.
“Where’s my dad?”
Xue Yunfei knew that her parents had always lived their own lives, so she never asked about Jiang Min’s private life.
As long as her mother was happy, she wouldn’t do that.
“Who knows where he went to fool around again?”
At the mention of Xue Hongchang, Jiang Min was in a bad mood.
“Alright, I’ll give him a call.”
Xue Hongchang naturally went to his mansion to fool around with Zhao Qinlan.
No, it should be Dong Qiulan.
After Dong Qiulan’s plastic surgery, the wound on her face had not completely healed. She would not be able to leave the house for the next six months.
Xue Hongchang had truly poured all his tenderness and love into Dong Qiulan.
He bought her clothes, bags, and wiped her body. As long as he came to her, he would definitely do it with her.
When Xue Yunfei called, he had just finished a night with Dong Qiulan.
“Dad, I’m going back to South City tomorrow.”
Although Xue Yunfei also despised Xue Hongchang, he was still her father. Moreover, Xue Hongchang had treated her like the apple of his eye since she was young. She didn’t understand when she was young, but she was still full of gratitude and respect for Xue Hongchang.
“Alright, then I won’t send you off. I wish you a safe journey. If you need money, just let me know.”
“Got it.”
It was precisely because Xue Hongchang had always been tolerant of her that Xue Yunfei did not have much dislike for him.
After hanging up the phone, Xue Yunfei was about to take a shower when she found her pajamas. Her phone rang.
Looking at the caller ID, it was Xue Hongchang, who had just ended the call with her.
She thought that Xue Hongchang had forgotten to tell her something, so she immediately picked it up.
Just as he was about to speak, the other party spoke first.
“I heard that your daughter broke off her engagement with the Tang family?”
It was a woman’s voice.
Xue Yunfei could tell that it was Zhao Qinlan.
She knew that Xue Hongchang always had an obsession that he couldn’t let go of, and that was Zhao Qinlan.
In this aspect, she was quite similar to Xue Hongchang.
She was persistent and unwilling to give up on the person she loved.
“That’s right. That wretched girl, she didn’t want the great wealth in front of her and just had to run so far to South City to cling to a man. Throw away the watermelon and pick up the sesame seeds.”
“South City? Who is it?”
“Speaking of which, he’s not an outsider. He’s your son, Gu Shimo.”
“He’s not my son. He’s just a bastard child that Gu Xiaoquan had with that b * tch.”
“Why? You still can’t forget that dead man, Gu Xiaoquan?”
Xue Hongchang seemed to be jealous.
His attitude made Zhao Qinlan laugh.
“Are you jealous of a dead person? Back then, I was blind to have followed him. Until now I understand that you are the one destined to be mine.”
“Hee hee, since you put it this way, then we…”
Hearing Xue Hongchang make such a wretched sound, Xue Yunfei almost vomited.
She quickly hung up the phone to avoid dirtying her ears.
But Zhao Qinlan’s words shocked Xue Yunfei.
Gu Shimo was not Zhao Qinlan’s biological son?
No wonder Zhao Qinlan came all the way to the capital to seek refuge with her father.
So, did Gu Shimo also know about her background? After Gu Xiaoquan’s death, they finally turned on each other?
Zhao Qinlan was hiding here so that Gu Shimo would not find her, right?
With this trump card in her hand, was she not afraid that she would not be able to take down Gu Shimo?
Xue Yunfei hummed a song and went to the bathroom to take a shower.
—-
In the bathroom.
Ye Qingwan gave Zixi a bath and dried him with a towel.
When she was about to wipe his leg area, Ye Zixi covered her crotch with both hands and said,”
” Please enter the password!”
Ye Qingwan couldn’t help but laugh.
“Beep beep beep, password confirmed.”
She pretended to press the password.
” Wrong password. Re-enter.”
Ye Qingwan had to do it again.
In the end, Ye Zixi still said that the password was wrong and refused to let go.
“Mom, I’ll wipe it myself! You’re a girl, and I’m a boy. There’s a difference between men and women. You can’t watch each other shower. When will daddy come back? When daddy comes back, he can give me a bath and wipe my body, right?”
Chapter 362: I’ll Wait for You at the Hotel Chapter 362: I’ll Wait for You at the Hotel Ye Qingwan didn’t know whether to laugh or cry.
“Our Zixi has really grown up. She still knows the difference between men and women.”
It was necessary to let children realize that they were a bit of a drug.
“Then wipe it yourself. I’m going out.”
She changed to a dry towel. It was a little too big for him to use.
“Dad will be back in a few days. However, since our Zixi has already grown up, you can bathe and wipe your body by yourself. You can also do it yourself. You don’t have to ask Daddy to help you.”
“But last time, Dad said that he wanted to take a shower with me. I can scrub his back.”
“Okay, then you guys can shower together when Daddy comes back.”
The next day, when Ye Qingwan went to the hospital to visit Gu Shimo, she told him about this incident as a joke.
She had originally thought that Zixi was lively and interesting, but when Gu Shimo heard this, he felt sorry for her and blamed himself.
“I owe you and your son so much, especially Zixi.”
He held her hand in his.” I’ve been absent from Zixi’s life for five years. After I’m discharged, I’ll make it up to him double. For the rest of my life, I’m willing to be your slave and serve Zixi.”
Ye Qingwan didn’t want him to feel heavy, so she said,”
“Which parent in the world doesn’t work for their children? Do you still want to be an exception?”
This sentence diluted Gu Shimo’s self-pity by quite a bit.
He was about to say something when his phone rang.
Ye Qingwan took her phone from the bedside table and saw that it was Xue Yunfei.
After handing the phone to him, Gu Shimo glanced at the phone screen and frowned slightly.
“Why did she call me?”
“Shi Mo, I’m Xue Yunfei.”
Gu Shimo hummed softly and his tone was cold.
“Miss Xue, why are you looking for me?”
No matter what, she had saved him back then. He would never forget this kindness.
“I just came back from Hillford. There’s something I want to tell you in person. Is it convenient for you to meet me?”
“If there’s anything, let’s talk over the phone.”
“Okay, it’s about your mother, Zhao Qinlan. Are you looking for her? I know where she is.”
“Where is she?”
“I’m temporarily staying at a hotel. I’ll send you the address later. I’ll be here tonight. When is it convenient for you to come over? I’ll tell you in detail then.”
“Alright.” he said in a low voice.
After hanging up, he looked at Ye Qingwan suspiciously.
“Xue Yunfei said that she has clues about Zhao Qinlan, but I don’t know if it’s true. Tonight, I’ll ask Zuo Zhi to find out more.”
They were searching for Zhao Qinlan’s whereabouts with great fanfare, so it was reasonable for Xue Yunfei to know that he was looking for her.
Xue Yunfei’s words couldn’t be completely trusted, but they also couldn’t be untrusted.
He would rather kill a thousand wrongly than let one go.
If she really had a clue about Zhao Qinlan, that would be the best.
At night, Xue Yunfei had done some skincare treatments and put on an exquisite makeup. She wore a deep V-neck dress and sprayed perfume on it, trying her best to create the image of a peerless beauty. She was just waiting for Gu Shimo to come knocking on her door.
She did not believe that Gu Shimo would not take such a fragrant and tempting bait.
The doorbell rang at around seven o’clock.
She didn’t even have time to glance at the peephole before she opened the door eagerly. She was filled with joy and flirtatious.
However, the smile on her face froze halfway when she saw who it was.
“Why is it you? Where’s your master?”
Her face immediately fell. She did not give up and looked at the corridor outside again. She did not see any trace of Gu Shimo.
“Our master is so busy that he can’t devote himself to it, so he sent me here. Let’s go in and talk.”
Without any explanation, he dashed into the room and turned around to close the door.
“I heard that Miss Xue knows where Zhao Qinlan is now?”
“I know, but why should I tell you?”
She turned the doorknob angrily and opened the door again.
Chapter 363: She Knows Zhao Qinlan’s Whereabouts Chapter 363: She Knows Zhao Qinlan’s Whereabouts “Alright, you can go now. Go back and tell your master that if he wants to know any clues about Zhao Qinlan, he has to ask me personally.”
Zuo Zhi was unmoved.
“Miss Xue probably doesn’t know where Zhao Qinlan is, right? My master was afraid that he would make a wasted trip, so he sent me here.”
Xue Yunfei rolled her eyes at him.
“It’s useless to goad me. Now, please get out! Ah, right, if you want me to prove whether what I said is true, I can tell you a piece of news to verify it.”
She hooked her finger at him, gesturing for him to come closer.
The Left Executive looked at her warily.
Xue Yunfei sneered.
“What do you mean by that expression? Are you worried that I will molest you? Dream on!”
The Left Executive looked embarrassed and moved closer to her.
Xue Yunfei was too lazy to argue with him. She opened her red lips and said in a low voice,
“Zhao Qinlan isn’t Gu Shimo’s biological mother, right?”
—-
Zuo Zhi returned to report to Gu Shimo and repeated the conversation between him and Xue Yunfei without missing a single word. Of course, some inappropriate conversations were omitted.
It was the last sentence that made Gu Shimo skeptical.
His background was not announced to the public. Other than the people close to him, no one else knew.
But Xue Yunfei said with absolute certainty that Zhao Qinlan was not his mother.
This made Gu Shimo believe that Xue Yunfei really knew Zhao Qinlan’s whereabouts.
“When Xue Yunfei called me earlier, she said that she had just returned from Beijing. She didn’t tell him about this sooner or later, but now. This meant that she must have discovered something when she returned to the capital this time.”
Gu Shimo deduced and analyzed,” How about this, Zuo Zhi, narrow down the scope of our target to the Imperial Capital. Send more people from other places. We can find out where she has been and who she has come into contact with. Also, pay close attention to her whereabouts and see if you can find anything.”
“Yes, my lord!”
—-
When it was almost time to get off work, Ye Qingwan suddenly received a call from an unknown number.
“Is it Ye Qingwan?”
It was a man’s voice. Ye Qingwan found it vaguely familiar, but she couldn’t remember who it was.
“I’m Ye Qingwan. Who are you?”
“I’m Gao Jiaxiang, do you still remember me?”
“Ah, it’s you!”
Ye Qingwan suddenly realized why she found it familiar.
It turned out to be her high school classmate from back then.
She had so many classmates in high school. The reason why she still remembered him was because he had once pursued her back then.
Ye Qingwan, as the campus belle, had many admirers, and Gao Jiaxiang was a special one.
He had almost no friends, was a loner, had poor grades, and basically slept in class. However, he was tall and handsome. He was an active member of the school’s sports team, and there were many girls who had a crush on him.
He had never confessed to her. Even in front of her, he always acted cool, but he would always stand up for her when other boys harassed her.
A few girls who were jealous of her joined forces and wanted to play tricks on her. It was Gao Jiaxiang who beat those girls up.
He had even fought with the teacher because of her. It was because the Chinese teacher had bumped into her shoulder in class, whether intentionally or not.
Gao Jiaxiang went to the office after school and beat up the Chinese teacher. He was given a major demerit and transferred to another school.
Although she did not have any feelings for Gao Jiaxiang, he had done so much for her. He might have been young and frivolous, but he had left an unforgettable memory for her.
“I’m in South City now. Are you in South City?”
On the other end of the phone, Gao Jiaxiang could not hide his excitement.
Chapter 364: She Was His First Love Chapter 364: She Was His First Love “Yes, I’m also in South City now.”Ye Qingwan replied.
“Then let’s have dinner together tonight. I’ll treat you.”
“Sure, send me the time and address. I’ll be there on time.”
“Then let’s do it at 7 pm. I’ll make a reservation at 1587 first.”
Ye Qingwan told Leng Xiaoduan about the time and place and asked him to have dinner with her that night.
She then sent a voice message to Gu Shimo.
“Brother Shi Mo, I have a high school classmate who asked me out for dinner tonight. It’s a man. In order to prevent you from misunderstanding, I’ll let you know in advance.”
“Is it a class reunion? Who are they?” Gu Shimo replied almost instantly.
“He’s alone, but don’t worry. I’ll get Xiao Duan to accompany me. I’ll tell you the details later. This high school classmate helped me a lot in the past, so it’s only right for me to treat him to a meal.”
Gu Shimo did not reply after that.
After work, Ye Qingwan packed her things and went with Leng Xiaoduan. Gu Feng drove them to Room 1587. Ye Qingwan made a reservation there.
The waiter led them to the private room they had booked and said that a friend had already arrived and was waiting for them with tea.
Pushing the door open, she saw a man sitting inside. He immediately stood up when he heard the commotion.
He was tall and burly. He had a buzz cut and a row of earrings on his left ear. When he stood up, he looked like a tiger. Putting everything else aside, it was impossible for him to go wrong if he maintained long-term fitness.
Ye Qingwan didn’t dare to associate him with his skinny appearance back then.
Seven to eight years had passed, and both of them had changed a lot.
Before she could speak, Leng Xiaoduan, who was beside her, said in surprise,
“It’s you?”
Ye Qingwan turned to look at her and smiled.
“Isn’t it a coincidence? I knew it was him the last time, but I forgot to tell you because there were too many things later.”
Fortunately, he had a strong physique. Otherwise, how could he catch Leng Xiaoduan so easily?
“So you guys are friends?” Gao Jiaxiang’s finger moved between the two of them.
“Yes, I grew up with Sister Qingwan. We’re like sisters.”
The little girl was excited and passionate about her savior.
“I didn’t expect to have the chance to see you again.”
She took the initiative to approach him and greeted him with a smile.
“You didn’t leave your name when you did a good deed last time. I still don’t know what your benefactor’s name is. My name is Leng Xiaoduan.”
Gao Jiaxiang waved his hand.
“It was just a coincidence. You don’t have to take it to heart.”
“His name is Gao Jiaxiang.”
Ye Qingwan sat down and introduced Leng Xiaoduan.
“We used to be high school classmates.”
“I thought that benefactor had always been cold and unapproachable. It turns out that you can also smile.”
Gao Jiaxiang had been cynical back then. He looked handsome and arrogant, as if he didn’t want anyone to provoke him.
He never smiled, but when he saw Ye Qingwan, he would smile.
Leng Xiaoduan immediately caught him.
“I even went to your house at that time.”
Ye Qingwan said to Gao Jiaxiang,” We wanted to thank you, but you didn’t open the door. At that time, I didn’t even know it was you.”
“It can be seen that everything is destined.”Gao Jiaxiang smiled shyly. “You saved my father’s life, and I saved Yin’s Fault and Yang’s Mistake, and saved Leng Xiaoduan. We’re even now.”
Chapter 365: I Miss You Chapter 365: I Miss You “What? When did we save your father’s life?”
Leng Xiaoduan was confused.
“It’s the article that our official account posted last time. An old man left a message saying that he wanted to commit suicide.”
Ye Qingwan explained softly.
“What? So that old man is your father?”Leng Xiaoduan sighed.
The three of them chatted for a while, then found a place to sit down and ordered.
While waiting for the dishes, Gao Jiaxiang kept staring at Ye Qingwan.
Just now, when Ye Qingwan appeared, Gao Jiaxiang felt his eyes light up.
Gao Jiaxiang knew that Ye Qingwan was beautiful.
However, she was still inexperienced back then. At that time, she still had a little baby fat on her face. She was bright and beautiful, but more innocent.
A few years had passed, and Ye Qingwan had shed her youth back then. She had become more beautiful and elegant, with an extraordinary temperament.
As for him, he had long passed the age of first awakening of love, but the moment he saw her, his heart pounded again.
Since fate had reunited them, was it hinting at something?
He was no longer the clumsy boy who only knew how to bury everything in his heart. He could bravely save people and confess his feelings.
She cleared her throat and was about to ask Ye Qingwan if she had a boyfriend when her phone rang.
She glanced at the phone screen and smiled apologetically at him.
“Sorry, I have a call to answer.”
The call was from Fu Yushen.
“Chief Fu?”
“Qing Wan, I’ll sue you first. I had just returned to South City and wanted to find someone to have a meal with me. I did not care about Shi Mo’s life or death and dragged him to 1587. I was afraid that you would be worried about him, so I wanted to ask if you wanted to come over.”
“What? You guys are also in 1587?”
Ye Qingwan gestured at the two of them and walked out of the private room. She saw Gu Shimo standing in the corridor.
After hanging up the phone, Ye Qingwan quickly walked up to him and held him. She said,”
“Why didn’t you stay in the hospital? Why did you run out? Fu Yushen told you to come, so you came?”
Gu Shimo looked at her extremely nervous expression and his heart was filled with a faint joy.
“It’s not that Fu Yushen asked me to come. I knew you were here, so I went with the flow. Wanwan, I think I’ve been poisoned by a poison called ‘Ye Qingwan’. The antidote is someone called’ Ye Qingwan’.” As long as I don’t see this antidote, the poison will take effect and I’ll feel uncomfortable all over.”
Ye Qingwan chuckled.”Brother Shi Mo, you’re really getting more and more talkative.””
He held her hand and said,”
“Why don’t you come with us?”
However, Ye Qingwan pulled him back.” Gao Jiaxiang and Xiao Duan are still in the private room. Let’s go and say hello first…”
Before she could finish her sentence, Gu Shimo pulled her into his arms and sealed it with a kiss.
At this moment, a waiter passed by. Ye Qingwan blushed, but she couldn’t bear to push him away. She closed her eyes and pretended not to see anything.
The waiters who passed by pretended not to see anything and walked past calmly.
As Gu Shimo’s body had not fully recovered, he could not support him to stand up and devote himself to her. Therefore, he only had a taste of his mouth before he let go of her.
Looking at her face that was so red that it was dripping blood, he felt that he had not had enough and wanted to ask for more.
His voice was hoarse and full of charm as he leaned close to her ear.
“Wanwan, should we go home directly?”
As he spoke, he blew into her ear.
As if she was acting coquettifully, her fingers gently dug into her palm.” Wanwan, I want…You.”
Ye Qingwan was already in love, but he was still teasing her. She had lost the ability to think in her confusion. She only knew to follow his rhythm, nodding her head in a daze and looking shy.
“Alright.”
Chapter 366: Lingering Chapter 366: Lingering Ye Qingwan and Gu Shimo said that one of them was going out to make a phone call, while the other was going to answer it.
The two of them valued their sex over their friends. They left Leng Xiaoduan, Gao Jiaxiang, and Fu Yushen in Room 1587 and went to the hotel room together.
The reason why Gu Shimo did not go home but went to the hotel was that at this moment, there was only Ye Qingwan in his heart. He only wanted to spend some time with her happily. He did not want to be disturbed by Ye Zixi when he went home.
When they arrived at the hotel, Gu Shimo had just entered the room after swiping the room card. He kicked the door with his heel and cupped her face with both hands impatiently. His sexy lips kissed her red lips precisely.
It wasn’t like when he was in 1587, where he had only tasted her briefly. Instead, he was passionate, passionate, and wild, as if he wanted to make up for the regret of not being able to love her properly during this period of time.
Ye Qingwan’s whole body went soft from his kiss, and he almost couldn’t stand up. He picked her up and fell on the soft bed with her.
There was no need to say anything about the lingering warmth. The two of them did not hold anything back and expressed their passion to the fullest.
Ye Qingwan was exhausted and couldn’t muster any strength.
He cleaned her up and laid on the bed. He hugged her and used his right arm as a pillow, letting her head rest on it.
“Wanwan, why don’t we get our marriage certificate tomorrow?”
His fingers caressed the smooth skin of her arm as he repeated the old topic.
“Brother Shi Mo, it’s not convenient for you to appear in such a public place yet.”
She looked up at him, her tone filled with worry.
After failing to register their marriage once, she was no longer in a hurry. “Actually, you were a little rash when you came out today. Your injuries haven’t completely recovered. Moreover, if the other party has been waiting for an opportunity, you will be in great danger. We’re not obsessed with this marriage contract. I just want you to be well.”
“Aren’t I fine?”
He grabbed her finger and kissed it gently on the lips.
“Don’t worry. The Left Deacon has already arranged for people to protect us in secret. South City is not like other countries. This is my territory after all. The security checks are so strict. It’s not easy for assassins to sneak in.”
“That won’t do.”
She still objected.
“When you’ve recovered and found the mastermind, we’ll talk about marriage, okay? We’re connected by heart. Getting our marriage certificate is just a process. We can do it anytime. There’s no hurry. By the way, did Fu Yushen reveal any news when he came back from work? Have you found the murderer?”
Gu Shimo frowned slightly and said,
“The other party has made careful arrangements and is overseas. The investigation won’t be so smooth. It was so difficult for us to find Zhao Qinlan in China, let alone a professional assassin overseas?”
“What about that Xue Yunfei? Didn’t she say that she knew Zhao Qinlan’s whereabouts?”
He had not had the time to communicate with Ye Qingwan about Gu Shimo asking Zuo Zhi to meet Xue Yunfei.
“I’ve asked Zuo Zhi to contact her and inquire about it. Xue Yunfei might have known about Zhao Qinlan’s whereabouts because she actually said that she wasn’t Zhao Qinlan’s biological daughter.”
Ye Qingwan sat up in excitement.
“Did she say where Zhao Qinlan is?”
He pulled her gently and she fell back into his arms.
“She’s just pretending to be mysterious. Let’s leave her alone for a while. We were clueless before, but now we have a general direction. I believe we will find Zhao Qinlan soon.”
“But…”
He wasn’t anxious, but Ye Qingwan was.
This woman had caused the destruction of two families at the same time. The living had suffered, but she was still at large.
Especially Leng Xiao, who had almost given up on his own life. All he wanted was to find her and take revenge.
“Trust me.”
Their eyes met, their expressions serious and solemn.
He understood her.
Of course, she understood him.
Suddenly, her stomach made a rumbling sound.
The two of them laughed silently.
She then remembered that the two of them had not had time to eat dinner. They had just gone through an intense exercise and were exhausted. They needed to replenish their energy.
“I’m so hungry. Why don’t we go down and eat something?”
He suggested,” Why don’t we call room service?”
Considering that she was not physically strong and that he would alarm others the moment he went out, it was better to avoid trouble.
Chapter 367: Coincidence Encounter in the Hotel Chapter 367: Coincidence Encounter in the Hotel “Good! Let’s see what’s there to eat.”
She had exhausted all her strength and really did not want to move at all. She was also too lazy to change her clothes.
The two of them looked at the menu in the hotel room and ordered steak and spaghetti. He called to order and even asked the hotel to order flowers and prepare a candlelight dinner.
The efficiency of a five-star hotel was really fast. Not long after, someone rang the doorbell of the opposite room.
“Room service! Sir, this is the candlelight dinner you ordered.”
Although the soundproofing of the room was good, in the silent night, one could still hear faint sounds through the door.
Gu Shimo muttered to himself,
“Did you send her to the wrong room? Why was it sent to the other side? I’ll go take a look.”
He casually wrapped his sleeping robe around himself and fastened his belt. The sleeping robe was loose, revealing half of his muscular chest.
Just as he opened the door, he saw that the door to the opposite room had also opened. A familiar face jumped into his sight.
“What is it?”
Xue Yunfei, who had removed her makeup and had no makeup on, yawned as she came out. She had been busy all day and was just about to go to bed when she was interrupted.
She saw the waiter pushing a dining cart over. Because the plate was covered with a metal cover, she couldn’t see what it was. However, her sharp eyes caught a bouquet of flowers on the floor below the cart.
Just as she was wondering if she had called for room service, she heard a pleasant male voice from the other end.
“I’m sorry, you sent me to the wrong room. I ordered the candlelit dinner.”
Xue Yunfei’s sleepiness was gone.
At the door of the opposite room stood a sculpture-like man. He was only wearing a nightgown, and the sexiness he unintentionally revealed made her throat dry.
“Ah, sorry, sorry.”
The waiter quickly turned the dining cart around and pushed it over.
Xue Yunfei had been secretly delighted. Why was Gu Shimo here all of a sudden?
He finally couldn’t hold it in anymore and wanted to use the beauty trap to get information from her?
The more she thought about it, the more she felt that this was the case. She leaned against the door and curled her hair with one finger, looking enchanting.
“Shi Mo, are you staying at the hotel tonight too? It’s so late and you haven’t eaten yet? Do you want me to accompany you? I have something to tell you.”
Gu Shimo opened the door completely so that the dining cart could enter. At this moment, Ye Qingwan walked in, also dressed in a nightgown.
“Is the food we ordered here?”
Gu Shimo glanced at Xue Yunfei with a regretful expression. His expression was cold.
“I’m sorry. If it’s a business matter, please make an appointment with my secretary. If it’s a private matter, please look for my assistant, Zuo Zhi.”
Then, he ignored her and turned around. He took out the fresh flowers from under the dining cart and gave them to Ye Qingwan. He smiled gently and said,”
“This is for you! I know you like flowers, but I like you more.”
Even the waiter couldn’t bear to listen to this mushy confession.
He pushed the car in and quickly bowed. He said,” Enjoy your meal,” he immediately exited the room.
Opposite her, Xue Yunfei, who had been in a pose that she thought was peerless, flipped over. Gu Shimo’s words had angered her so much that she was almost fuming.
When she called him yesterday, he had sent Zuo Zhi to brush her off.
He did come today, but he had specially brought Ye Qingwan and booked a room opposite him!
It was obvious that the waiter had sent her to the wrong room on purpose to let her know.
He was here. Not only did he come, but he also brought Ye Qingwan with him.
This was a blatant provocation!
Gu Shimo, you don’t want to look for Zhao Qinlan anymore, right?
Ye! Blue! Wan!
Looking at the tightly shut door opposite her, she thought of the two of them making out inside and eating a romantic candlelight dinner. Her eyes were red with jealousy and she was about to go crazy with hatred.
When she returned to her room, she slammed the door with a loud bang and paced around the room like an angry lioness.
When she turned around, she accidentally saw herself in the mirror on the wardrobe. Not only did she appear bare-faced, but she had also changed her face beyond recognition because of jealousy.
Oh my god, was she trying to seduce Gu Shimo with such a face just now?
No wonder he was unmoved.
What a mistake.
No, no, no. Gu Shimo, what you saw just now was an illusion. We can start over.
Chapter 368: Bi Yunfei Asked Ye Qingwan to Meet Chapter 368: Bi Yunfei Asked Ye Qingwan to Meet If she wanted to save him, Gu Shimo could only be hers.
Xue Yunfei calmed herself down and sat down on the bed. She picked up her phone, scrolled to Ye Qingwan’s number, and typed a message.
“Ye Qingwan, I’m Xue Yunfei. Do you want to know where Zhao Qinlan is? If you want to know, let’s meet.”
In the room, Gu Shimo and Ye Qingwan were indeed having dinner under the flickering candlelight.
Gu Shimo cut the steak into small pieces and fed them to Ye Qingwan.
Ye Qingwan said that she would do it herself, so he should be hungry too.
“You fed me just now. Now it’s my turn to feed you.”
He insisted on feeding her the sliced steak.
She was touched, but she felt more helpless.
She had no choice but to eat a mouthful of his steak and feed him a mouthful of noodles.
She savored the delicious steak and looked at Gu Shimo affectionately.
“Brother Shi Mo, did you choose this hotel on purpose? When you ordered the food just now, you deliberately gave the wrong room number. Because you know that Xue Yunfei lives right across the street.”
“Yes, I am. She had saved me that year, but I couldn’t be too heartless. Therefore, he used this method to tactfully tell her that if she still knew how to love herself, she should know to give up.”
Her small and pretty nose wrinkled at him.
“Brother Shi Mo, you’re so attractive. After chasing away one wave, another wave will come.”
“Why? Are you jealous?”
Her slightly jealous expression pleased him. He reached out and pinched her nose lightly.
“That’s why I was in a hurry to get married with you. When we get our marriage certificate and stamp it, whether it’s those who admire you or covet me, let those rotten peach blossoms dissipate.”
Ye Qingwan giggled non-stop.
“Brother Shi Mo, you’re here again. Who would have thought that the dignified CEO of the Gu Corporation, the King of Hell Gu, who was feared by the entire company, was actually thinking about getting married all day long!”
“You can still laugh?”
He pretended to be angry at her.
“I just want you to give me a status. This way, I won’t have to waste my time and effort to cut off those rotten peach blossoms.”
As she was speaking, her phone suddenly rang.
When he picked up his phone, he saw the message from Xue Yunfei.
Xue Yunfei immediately added,” I hope that Gu Shimo doesn’t find out about this.”
Gu Shimo held the fork in his hand for a long time, but she did not open her mouth to eat. She only lowered her head to look at her phone and asked,
“What is it?”
Ye Qingwan hesitated to tell him, but her phone rang again.
The screen was flashing with the words ” Brother Leng Xiao “. She took the opportunity to cover it up and said,
“It’s Leng Xiao, I’ll take it.”
“Wanwan, is Little Duan with Gu Ziyang?”
Leng Xiao asked as soon as he picked up the phone.
“Ah?” Ye Qingwan was still a little confused.
“Do you still remember the architect who went on a blind date with Xiao Duan last time? He had planned to spend more time with Leng Xiaoduan, but when he contacted him, he found out that she had blacklisted him. In the end, he had just seen her get into the man’s car outside Room 1587. He showed me the license plate. It was Gu Ziyang’s car.”
Ye Qingwan then remembered that she had left Leng Xiaoduan and Gao Jiaxiang in Room 1587. How did Gu Ziyang bump into Leng Xiaoduan again?
“Brother Leng Xiao, I didn’t know about this.”
“Wanwan, can you help me persuade Xiao Duan? I’ve already shown her the evidence last time, but why is she still so stubborn? Gu Ziyang has an irreconcilable hatred for us. I will never agree to her being with the son of her enemy. If she doesn’t listen to my advice, she’ll have to cut ties with me unless I die!”
Leng Xiao sounded a little agitated. Ye Qingwan knew his temper. He would never compromise on this matter.
“Brother Leng Xiao, don’t worry. The more you object to something, the more it backfires. How about this, I’ll persuade Xiao Duan properly. Don’t say those words in a fit of pique. It’ll hurt our relationship!”
After she finished speaking to Leng Xiao, she turned around and saw Gu Shimo looking at her with pity.
Chapter 369: Why Are You Crying? Chapter 369: Why Are You Crying? Although they were separated by a phone, it was hard for Gu Shimo not to hear the loud voice of Leng Xiao.
Thinking back, he and Ye Qingwan were also in a dilemma because of this reason.
Fortunately, the truth was out now, so he could be with her without any obstacles.
Just as he was about to say something, his phone rang. He picked it up and went to the balcony to answer the call.
Ye Qingwan sat down in front of the dining table. Looking at the food on the plate, she suddenly lost her appetite.
After some thought, she picked up her phone and sent a message to Leng Xiaoduan.
After waiting for a long time, Leng Xiaoduan did not reply.
She exited the chat interface and thought of the message Xue Yunfei had just sent. She opened the message again and read it again.
Leng Xiao was so obsessed with revenge, yet Leng Xiaoduan was entangled with Gu Ziyang.
It was best to resolve this matter as soon as possible.
Hence, she replied to Xue Yunfei’s text message.
“Alright, I promise you. Time and place.”

The next morning, Ye Qingwan received a bouquet of flowers as soon as she arrived at the company. It was from Gao Jiaxiang. He even asked her on the card why she ran away last night and asked her to treat her to lunch to make it up to her.
Ye Qingwan felt a little embarrassed when she recalled what happened last night.
She decided to treat him to lunch to make it up to him, so she called Leng Xiaoduan along.
She was looking around for Leng Xiaoduan when she looked up and saw Leng Xiaoduan walking into the office with her head lowered. She did not even bother to greet anyone.
“Little Duan!”
She stopped Leng Xiaoduan and prepared to have lunch with him.
Leng Xiaoduan could ignore others, but not Ye Qingwan.
She raised her head and replied softly,””Sister Qing Wan!”
He quickly lowered his head.
Ye Qingwan quickly noticed something unusual.
Leng Xiaoduan’s eyes were red and slightly swollen. It was obvious that he had just experienced a bitter cry.
“Little Duan, come here.”
She called Leng Xiaoduan into the meeting room and closed the door.
Raising her hand, she lifted Leng Xiaoduan’s chin.
“What happened? Who bullied you?”
“No, I haven’t.”
Although she denied it, the aggrieved expression on Leng Xiaoduan’s face betrayed her.
“Tell me about it! Come, let’s sit down and talk slowly.”
Ye Qingwan pushed her shoulder and pushed Leng Xiaoduan into one of the chairs. She also pulled a chair over and sat opposite Leng Xiaoduan.
“If you give half of the sad things to others, then you will be less sad.””
Ye Qingwan guided him patiently.
“Even if you don’t say it, you can roughly guess it. Did you quarrel with your brother?”
“Sister Qing Wan…”
Leng Xiaoduan could no longer suppress the surging emotions in his heart. His small mouth pouted, and he suddenly felt extremely wronged.
It turned out that after Ye Qing left her and Gao Jiaxiang in 1587, Gao Jiaxiang felt bored and paid the bill in advance. Leng Xiaoduan didn’t want to waste any food, so he ate a little before leaving 1587.
Unexpectedly, as soon as she stepped out, she saw Chengquan alighting from a car.
Moreover, Chengquan had also noticed her and pointed at her from afar.
She couldn’t help but feel a little guilty because she had blacklisted the other party.
Seeing that he had used his fingers to stop her, she walked towards him again, thinking that he was going to settle scores with her.
Coincidentally, Gu Ziyang’s car had just passed by. When he saw her, he rolled down the window and greeted her.
In order to avoid any conflict with Chengquan, she did not even think about it. She strode forward, opened Gu Ziyang’s car door, and got in.
In fact, she only asked Gu Ziyang to give her a ride for a short while before she insisted on getting out of the car. She said that she was too full and needed to take a walk to digest her food.
However, Gu Ziyang followed her slowly in his car until she entered the gate of the neighborhood. She did not even say a word to Gu Ziyang.
Chapter 370: Leaving Gu Shimo Chapter 370: Leaving Gu Shimo However…
However, that Cheng Quan called Leng Xiao to add fuel to the fire. After Leng Xiao found out, of course, he wanted to ask her for confirmation.
No matter how she explained, Leng Xiao did not believe her at all.
Earlier, Leng Xiao had woken her up at her place early in the morning and dragged her to the cemetery in front of her parents ‘graves.
He beat his chest and said self-reproachfully,
“Dad, Mom, it’s our son who’s useless! I clearly know who the murderer is, but I can’t catch her and bring her to justice.”
“Brother.”
“Now, Xiao Duan is still with his enemy’s son! Dad, Mom, why didn’t you take me with you back then? However, don’t worry, when I find Zhao Qinlan, I’ll die with her, lest I become an eyesore.”
From the beginning to the end, he only blamed himself and did not scold her or argue with her.
However, this was a hundred times worse than scolding her or arguing with her.
Leng Xiao’s words were harsh.
Especially when Leng Xiao cried and complained about everything.
Every tear was like a knife, cutting her into pieces.
“Sister Qing Wan, what should I do?”
At this point, Leng Xiaoduan was already sobbing.
She covered her face with her hands, but bean-sized tears seeped out from between her fingers.
In the end, she was already crying and out of breath.
Standing up, Ye Qingwan hugged her and patted her back to make her cry.
When she was done crying, Ye Qingwan took a tissue and asked her to wipe her tears.
He poured her a glass of water.
“This is not your fault.”
She comforted Leng Xiaoduan softly.
He paused for a moment before continuing,” Of course, from your brother’s perspective, he’s not wrong. Gu Ziyang was not wrong either. His only fault was his mother. However, this was enough to be fatal.”
Because of her situation with Gu Shimo back then, Ye Qingwan could actually understand Leng Xiaoduan’s feelings.
“Little Duan, our lives are very long. Along the way, you will meet all kinds of people. Some will make you feel bad, and some will make you feel moved.”
“Think about how torturous it was for you to lose weight back then. At that time, you almost couldn’t hold on anymore. But now that you think back to that time, do you think that it wasn’t that hard?”
Leng Xiaoduan nodded while sobbing.
“Sister Qing Wan, I know what you said. I can understand how my brother feels.”
“Yes.”
“Actually, I don’t want anything to do with Gu Ziyang. I can feel that he likes me too. However, we are both very restrained. It was precisely because of this restraint that I felt that he was too pitiful.”
“I know.”
She gently stroked Leng Xiaoduan’s hair.
“After all, Gu Ziyang once illuminated your beautiful youth. It’s reasonable for you to be tempted by her. Although I’m not in a position to say this, you should understand that there are many variables in the future. You might meet someone better and more worthy of you. But Leng Xiao is your only family in this world.”
Two streams of tears immediately gushed out.
Leng Xiaoduan quickly took a tissue and wiped away his tears and snot.
“Sister Qingwan, don’t worry. It was really just an accident yesterday. After hearing what my brother said in front of my parents ‘graves today, I actually made up my mind. I won’t be seeing Gu Ziyang anymore.”
Ye Qingwan sighed.
“It’s good that you can think it through. It’s better to have a short pain than a long one. You’ve made a wise choice.”

After work, Ye Qingwan went to meet Xue Yunfei.
Yesterday, Xue Yunfei had already sent her the time and place. The two of them had agreed to meet at 1587.
Ye Qingwan kept her promise and did not tell Gu Shimo about this.
Xue Yunfei had arrived long ago, and she was getting a little impatient.
As soon as she sat down, Xue Yunfei went straight to the point.
“Leave Gu Shimo! As long as you agree to my condition, I can tell you Zhao Qinlan’s whereabouts.”
Ye Qingwan was about to speak, but she was interrupted by her threat.
“Of course, you can also choose not to agree. I can tell you with responsibility that if I don’t tell you, you will never find Zhao Qinlan.”
