Chapter 591: Interrogation
"Yes, I know that."
" She bought insurance?" Ye Qing asked doubtfully."
"In order to support the other party, she bought several insurance policies from him, including her own, Yusheng’s, and family property insurance."
".."
"Apart from Yu Sheng, everyone is alive.
The insurance company has already contacted my brother to settle the claims. My brother plans to give half of the money to the Yu family’s parents and the other half to repair the house and renovate it." NovelFire.c(o)(m)
Yu Xin really didn’t expect to die. NovelFire
She had an affair in a moment of passion and took care of her lover’s business. In the end, the winner fell on Leng Xiao.
"Even if he wants to settle the claim, he has to go through the process. Also, it takes time to renovate. Has he been staying in the shop all this time?"
".. Well, actually, I was thinking about moving to a bigger house so that my brother can settle down first."
Back then, Gu Ziyang had used his friend’s name to rent a house to Leng Xiaoduan for free.
Occasionally, when Leng Xiaoduan missed him, he would go over to clean the house and pay his respects. However, she never moved in.
As for Gu Shimo, she did not know if it was because he was too busy or because he had been negligent.
He did not even manage to sort out the inheritance left behind by Gu Ziyang and his son.
Leng Xiao Duan wanted Leng Xiao to move in, but he was afraid that Leng Xiao would ask about the background of the house.
She couldn’t answer, so she kept hesitating.
"Didn’t you say that you wanted to change houses? Take this opportunity to change. The place you’re living in now is really too inconvenient."
Ye Qingwan agreed.
"Okay, I’ll think about it."
After chatting for a while, the company’s employees came to work one after another.
When they heard that Ye Qingwan was here, they all came to comfort her.
Everyone said that if she had survived a great disaster, she would be blessed. They never mentioned any negative news about her.
After greeting each other, they returned to their work stations.
Gu Feng knocked on Ye Qingwan’s office door.
"Miss Qing Wan, you have a delivery."
Gu Feng walked in with a bouquet of sunflowers and gently placed it on the table in front of her.
The huge bunch of sunflowers emitted a brilliant and warm golden light, giving people a sense of prosperity.
There was a card in the bouquet. Ye Qingwan took it out and saw the familiar handwriting.
It was written by Gu Shimo himself.
"The greatest romance in life begins with loving yourself.
In the world, no one could slander you except the sun."
Ye Qingwan found that she was particularly sentimental recently, and her eyes and nose were sore.
She went online to search for sunflower’s language.
There were actually many:
Faith, glory, pride, loyalty, and love. What the sunflower bloomed was not only love, but also the love for dreams and life.
In fact, after Gu Shimo had sent her that chicken soup quote yesterday, she had felt a lot more at ease after reading it.
This time, it was his turn to recharge her.
Before she saw his message, her battery was already below 15%.
After reading the message, her charging progress bar quickly pulled to 50%.
She read and chewed on the text repeatedly. Before she went to bed, her battery was already charged to 80%.
And now, after receiving this bouquet of flowers and looking at the sunflowers blooming in the bright sunlight, the soft spot in her heart was once again hit by his words of encouragement.
Her battery was currently charged to 90%.
Ye Qingwan took a photo of the bouquet with her phone and sent it to Gu Shimo.
She didn’t send him a text, but just told him that she had received it.
Whether it was his flowers, encouragement, or his intentions, she received them all.
He replied instantly with only three simple words: "I love you!"
The short and ordinary words carried an unquestionable power that made her cry again.
The battery was instantly pulled to 99%.
Just as she was thinking about how to reply to him, there was a knock on the door again. Leng Xiaoduan pushed the door open and entered.
"Sister Qing Wan, there’s a visitor outside who wants to see you."
"Who is it?"
"He said his surname is Tang and he came from the capital."
Ye Qingwan’s mind quickly filtered through it. Someone from the Tang family came again?
"Bring him to my office!"
"Okay, Sister Qingwan."
Leng Xiaoduan turned around and left. Soon, he brought a white-haired old man.
Ye Qingwan was still suspicious, but now she was sure that it was Tang Baiyong.
She was also convinced.
Wasn’t it tiring to go around in the middle of winter?
As expected, he was still too free.
"Elder Tang!"
Ye Qingwan stood up and greeted him politely since he was her elder.
"Miss Ye!"
Tang Baiyong asked He Yu and his son to wait outside while he came in alone to negotiate with Ye Qingwan.
Ye Qingwan looked at him and realized that he didn’t come with good intentions.
However, no matter how difficult it was, she had already endured it. She was no longer afraid.
She couldn’t even be bothered to serve him a glass of water.
He asked softly,
"Old Master Tang, you don’t come to visit me without a reason. I wonder what instructions you have for coming this time?"
"Miss Ye is a straightforward person, so I don’t have to beat around the bush. The Internet has been very lively these past two days."
Tang Bai Yong found a seat and sat down with a golden saber, looking down at the world with disdain.
"I thought that Miss Ye was hiding at home and secretly healing her injuries. It was a little unexpected to see you in the company."
Ye Qingwan wasn’t angry. Instead, she laughed.
However, his smile did not reach the bottom.
"Are you disappointed to see me still alive and kicking? Do you think I should have died in that sea of fire?"She asked calmly.
"Hahaha, I didn’t think so. However, this fire incident did allow me to see something unexpected. Let’s talk openly."
Ye Qingwan raised her eyebrows and waited for him to continue.
Tang Baiyong stared at her for a few seconds.
He snorted coldly in his heart and continued,
"You also know that Gu Shimo is the descendant of the Tang family."
".."
Ye Qingwan’s eyes were cold and she didn’t reply.
Tang Bai Yong’s voice was filled with dissatisfaction,
"Previously, I sincerely asked you to help persuade him to acknowledge his ancestors, but you were always ambiguous."
"I still couldn’t figure it out at the time, but now I seem to understand a little. Since you feel that you are not worthy of Gu Shimo and are worried that you will not be recognized by the Tang family, why don’t you let go earlier?"
"Old Master Tang ignored the long journey and came all the way to South City to find me. Is this what you want to say?"
Ye Qingwan wasn’t surprised.
The moment Tang Bai Yong appeared, she had mentally prepared herself.
She pursed her lips slightly, and the coldness in her eyes intensified.
Seeing that she wasn’t affected, Tang Baiyong became even angrier.
His tone became colder." You’re a smart girl. She could also be financially independent and did not have to rely on men to live.
Now that your dark history has been made public on the Internet, if Shi Mo still chooses to be with you, how much damage will he suffer?
He’s not a nobody. He’s the CEO of the Gu Corporation. Do you want him to be a laughing stock no matter what occasion he attends in the future?"
Ye Qingwan ignored the pain in her heart.
A cold smile appeared on his face.
"Elder Tang, back then, you imprisoned your pregnant daughter Tang Ying because you were afraid of becoming a laughing stock?"
"You..."
Tang Bai Yong’s old face suddenly turned green.
Ye Qingwan said,"Then I’m glad that Gu Shimo didn’t return to the Tang family because of his vanity."
This was because the next time, he might very well make a mistake that he had no choice but to make and cause the Tang family to become the laughing stock of the entire country. He might even be expelled by the Tang family again.
Just like Tang Ying back then, wasn’t it?"
Chapter 592: Anger
Ye Qingwan’s words were forceful and every word pierced Tang Baiyong’s wound.
Tang Bai was so angry that he almost vomited blood.
He panted.
"I didn’t expect Miss Ye to be so eloquent! It seemed that Miss Ye was indeed as I thought. In order to not let Shi Mo acknowledge his ancestors, she deliberately hid her talent."
"There’s a good saying. It was not that the old people had become bad, but that the bad people had become old.’Your ability to create something out of nothing is comparable to those keyboard warriors on the internet now."
"Miss Ye, are you deliberately changing the topic?
Isn’t the topic we’re discussing now revolving around your dark history?
Could it be that not only will your dark history not affect Gu Shimo, but it will also bring glory to him?"
"Elder Tang, I really feel sorry for you."
Ye Qingwan looked at him with pity.
"For children who are hurt outside, not only will they not be comforted by their families when they return home, but they will also be considered a disgrace by their families.
What was the difference between such a family and the thugs outside?"
".."
"Do you know why people often feel warm because of a stranger’s kindness? What family members do is only natural.
No matter how strong the injury is, sooner or later it will heal, but even the slightest injury to your family will accompany you for the rest of your life, never to be forgotten?"
Tang Baiyong was at a loss for words, not knowing how to refute her.
" The so-called family is meant to tolerate, love, and warm each other. Whether he is good or bad, successful or not, healthy or sick, no matter how painful or difficult it is, we have to bear it together.
Since Gu Shimo has chosen me, he must bear my dark history.
This is the price he has to pay for loving me. Poor you, do you know what love is?"
"Similarly, because I love him, even if I know that I might become a stain in his life, I will still stand by his side unwaveringly.
We should care about the people we love, not those we don’t know.
What does it have to do with me what they say or think of us? I’m not living for them."
Tang Baiyong left Ye Qingwan in embarrassment.
Ye Qingwan’s words made him feel uncomfortable.
In the elevator, He Yutang talked to him, but he turned a deaf ear.
When she came out of the elevator, she happened to meet Gu Shimo, who had rushed over after hearing the news.
"Elder Tang!"
Gu Shimo’s tone was angry.
He received a call from Gu Feng and heard that Tang Bai Yong seemed to be here to find trouble.
Gu Shimo hurriedly delayed the meeting and rushed over.
His Wanwan was in a sensitive period to begin with. He was so careful and protective of her that he wished he could lock her up in a vacuum environment.
He didn’t expect that Tang Baiyong would come all the way here and continue to pressure Ye Qingwan. He couldn’t stand it anymore. NovelFire
Tang Baiyong did not seem to have expected Gu Shimo to arrive so quickly.
He was stunned for a moment.
Before she could speak, she heard Gu Shimo’s cold voice without a trace of warmth.
"Was it because I didn’t speak properly last time? Then I’ll say it one last time.
Although Tang Ying is my biological mother, she only gave birth to me.
Moreover, she has long been abandoned by your Tang family. The murderer who killed her was none other than the person who pretended to miss her.
Now, you’re pretending to acknowledge Tang Ying’s orphan?"
"Shi Mo."
Tang Baiyong couldn’t believe it.
Gu Shimo ignored the change in his expression.
One word at a time.
He asked mockingly,
"The two women I love, Tang Ying and Ye Qingwan, have been hurt by the Tang family. Do you think I will still accept the Tang family?"
"I..."
Gu Shimo’s gaze was sharp.
"So what if the Tang family is as rich as a country? I haven’t touched a single needle or thread of the Tang family for so many years, but I’m still living well.
On the contrary, after your Tang family appeared, I encountered a series of unlucky things.
In my opinion, your Tang family doesn’t have a clean place. I feel unlucky even mentioning it."
"Young Master, how can you say that about Old Master?"
He Yutang tried to stop him.
Chapter 593: The Method to Wipe Memories
Tang Baiyong was so angry that he was trembling. His lips moved a few times.
He could not say a word.
Gu Shimo said," You should take advantage of the few days left to enjoy your old age! He didn’t want to lose his eyesight when he got old."
His words were laced with spears and sticks, and he did not show any mercy.
Tang Baiyong’s face finally darkened, and he fainted on the spot.
He Yutang and his son quickly supported him. Old Master!"
——
In the capital.
Xue Yunfei was originally proud of the perfect plan.
Unexpectedly.
Because of the sudden reversal of public opinion on the Internet, they were caught off guard.
She quickly found someone to erase her traces.
He had even arranged for someone to create the illusion that Xu Haizhi had committed suicide to avoid punishment, just to cut off contact with him. NovelFire
From yesterday until now, she had not slept for almost the entire night.
He couldn’t sleep at all. He was so angry that he was about to explode.
With such a good trump card, the situation was originally good. How did it end up like this?
Ye Qingwan, that bitch, was really a cockroach that couldn’t be killed.
In her confusion, she accidentally saw a TV series on TV.
In the drama, the female lead had forgotten about the male lead because of her memory loss. The second male lead happened to appear at this time and pursued her passionately, so she got together with the second male lead. Correct content is on NovelFire.
She suddenly had an idea.
Since he couldn’t kill Ye Qingwan, he would just make her lose her memory.
As long as she lost her memory, she would forget about Gu Shimo.
When the time came, she would fall in love with another man, and Gu Shimo would be hers.
Thinking of this.
She couldn’t wait to turn on her phone and search the internet. If she couldn’t make up her mind, she would ask Lady Du, and Lady Du would grant her every request, right?
Other than Du Niang, there seemed to be a certain Hu who would answer all questions as long as they could afford the price.
Nothing in the world was difficult for a determined person.
Sure enough, after a painstaking search, she really found a more reliable explanation.
In order to solve the pain of some patients with stress trauma mental illness, modern medicine had been trying to solve this problem.
They specifically introduced drugs that suppressed the central nervous system of memory. However, this drug required continuous treatment and could not be treated in a short period of time.
This method was more difficult to implement, so Xue Yunfei directly rejected it.
The other method was to perform deep hypnosis on the patient and seal the part of the patient’s memory that the patient was unwilling to face.
As long as he couldn’t remember that memory, he wouldn’t be in so much pain.
Although it was shameful to run away, it was useful.
Xue Yunfei was quite interested in this method.
Compared to the previous drug therapy, this was much simpler and easier.
She suddenly remembered that there was once a suitor of hers who seemed to be a medical doctor who studied mental illnesses.
She, Xue Yunfei, was a goddess.
There were many men who had feelings for her, but they didn’t continue to pester her because she was engaged to Tang Yiheng.
In this world, there were probably only two men who had crippled eyes.
One of them was Tang Yiheng. Of course, she did not care about Tang Yiheng.
The other one was Gu Shimo. He was the man she had fallen in love with at first sight and wanted to win over no matter what.
Xue Yunfei immediately flipped through her phone’s contact list, preparing to contact this admirer whom she had not contacted for a long time.
——
Beijing, Tang family.
Tang Songkang received a call and found out that Tang Baiyong had gone to South City. He had even fainted from anger because of Gu Shimo and was now in the hospital in South City.
He immediately ordered his subordinates to book him a ticket for the latest flight. He had to rush to South City immediately.
How could he miss such a good show?
This old man’s warm face was stuck to his cold buttocks.
He would probably wake up and know who was the one who cared about him in the end and who would do his best for the Tang Empire, right?
Without comparison, there would be no harm.
This was the best opportunity to show off, and Tang Songkang would never miss it.
——
In the afternoon, Gu Shimo came to Qingyun Wan to pick Ye Qingwan up and bring her to 1587 for lunch.
Previously, Gu Shimo had already come to Qingyun Wan. However, he did not expect his words to be so fierce that Tang Baiyong fainted from anger.
Out of morality, he called the 120 emergency number.
He Yutang and his son wanted to argue with him, but his secretary, Lin Dan, called again and said that the meeting was about to start.
Chapter 594: He Loves Her
Only then did Gu Shimo remember that the previous meeting had been postponed for an hour.
She could only get rid of the He father and son and return to the company for a meeting.
However, he sent a message to Ye Qingwan, asking her to make an appointment for lunch, and she agreed.
Gu Feng drove the two of them to 1587.
In order to minimize the risk of being recognized.
Gu Shimo had specially chosen Room 1587, which was more secluded, so that he could have a quiet and comfortable meal with Ye Qingwan.
1587, in the private room.
Gu Shimo skillfully gave the waiter a list of dishes, all of which were Ye Qingwan’s favorites.
In the end, he even specially added a dessert. NovelFire
Desserts were good for improving the intake of the people’s mood. Although the two of them had a tacit understanding and did not mention those bad things, Gu Shimo took care of them carefully and considerately.
"Brother Shi Mo, there are too many points. What if I can’t finish them?"
Ye Qingwan was a little worried.
Although the food here was exquisite and the amount of food was small.
However, Gu Shimo ordered more than ten dishes in one go. The two of them were not the kind who could eat very much.
A person who could eat two bites of each dish.
No matter how rich they were, they couldn’t waste food.
"Don’t worry, I’m with you."
Gu Shimo leaned forward and looked at her.
She smiled gently and dotingly." I promise, if there’s anything left, I’ll get rid of them all."
"There’s no need to force yourself. Just eat as much as you can."
Knowing that he was taking care of her, Ye Qingwan’s heart warmed.
She gave him a comforting smile.
Gu Shimo nodded and smiled.
"By the way, Old Master Tang came to Qingyun Wan to look for me today."
Ye Qingwan said.
She knew that even if she did not say anything, Gu Feng would definitely report the matter to him.
"Yes, I heard from Gu Feng."
Gu Shimo did not mention that he had been to Qingyun Wan’s office building. She asked gently," What did he say to you?"
At that time, Gu Feng, He Yu, and the Tang father and son had stayed outside, so no one else knew what Ye Qingwan and Tang Baiyong were talking about in the office.
Ye Qingwan recounted their conversation in the office.
"Good rebuttal!"
As he listened to Ye Qingwan’s narration, Gu Shimo could tell that she had the upper hand.
Tang Baiyong was in the wrong and had lost. Gu Shimo could not hide the excitement in his eyes, and there was a smile of relief and admiration on his face.
"Wanwan, I have to say, beautifully done!"
He gave her a thumbs-up, his joy overflowing in his words. He almost clapped his hands in praise.
"Do you know why I love you so much?"
The sudden confession stunned Ye Qingwan.
She asked dumbly," Why?"
Gu Shimo was amused by her appearance.
There was a hint of warmth in his deep eyes, and his voice was magnetic and pleasant." Because you have your own opinions, a firm stand, a clear distinction between right and wrong, and a clear distinction between love and hate. You have all the excellent qualities of a modern independent woman."
Ye Qingwan was a little embarrassed by his praise.
She seemed to have thought of something and her eyes turned serious." Then, don’t you blame me? Thinking about it carefully, I seem to have been a little rude to Elder Tang."
Even though Gu Shimo had said that he did not want to acknowledge his family, blood ties could not be severed just like that.
Ye Qingwan felt that she was jumping around in a minefield, afraid that she would cause trouble for Gu Shimo.
"If we’re talking about rudeness, it’s Tang Baiyong who was the first to be rude. He was the one who was not respected, and he still had the face to blame the younger generation for not treating him with respect?"
The expression on Gu Shimo’s handsome face faded a little.
His voice was low and cold as he expressed his stance solemnly.
Afraid that Ye Qingwan would feel burdened, he added,
"Wanwan, remember, no matter what, I’ll always be on your side. You don’t have to worry about others. Just think about yourself. In this sinister world, the prerequisite for everything was to please oneself. There was no need to think about living up to expectations. As long as you didn’t live up to yourself, it was the most responsible way for yourself."
Gu Shimo’s encouraging words warmed Ye Qingwan again.
Her heart was filled with warmth, and it quickly softened her delicate eyebrows.
She smiled and teased,
"Brother Shi Mo, if you retire from the second line in the future and no longer manage the Gu Corporation, you can consider becoming a column writer or publishing a book. Chicken soup literature will never be out of date, and there will be a place for you."
She was really inspired every time she read the text he sent her yesterday.
Chapter 595: A World Alone
"Then we’ll have to wait at least another ten years."
Gu Shimo raised his eyebrows and smiled. His aura was elegant and noble." In ten years, Zixi will be fifteen years old. You can slowly let him familiarize himself with the company’s affairs with me. After he graduates from university, he will be able to stand on his own. I will leave the company, make chicken soup, admire the flowers, hug Wanwan and love home."
".."
When the dishes were served, the waiter retreated to the outside and waited, leaving space for the distinguished guests.
Ye Qingwan was almost done eating. Seeing that there was still half a dish on the table, she hesitated whether she should continue to digest more.
However, Gu Shimo stopped her. He pressed the call bell and asked the kitchen to serve dessert.
"Didn’t I say that I’ll take care of the rest? Take a break and eat some desserts later. Eat slowly and treat it as accompanying me. I will eat all the dishes on the table."
"Brother Shi Mo, you don’t have to force it. Between ruining food and ruining you, I choose the former."
Gu Shimo waved his hand and smiled.
"I know a CEO who started from scratch. He said that when he started his business, he ate four steamed buns and a serving of salted vegetables with relish at the most difficult time.
Now that he was worth tens of millions and had a table full of delicacies, he could not raise his appetite at all. Nowadays, it’s a blessing for people to be able to eat. Don’t worry, I’m a blessed person. I won’t force myself."
When the dessert arrived, Ye Qingwan ate it with a small spoon.
She thought that she wouldn’t be able to eat anymore, but she didn’t expect that eating desserts would feel different from eating food.
Especially when she saw Gu Shimo gorging on the food, she felt as if her stomach had swelled up.
"Brother Shi Mo, Zixi is at my godmother’s house, right?"
The two of them ate slowly and chatted casually. It was rare for the two of them to enjoy such a slow-paced date. Both of them subconsciously wanted to extend the time.
"Yes, Auntie Lu is bored. Let Zixi accompany her for a few days." NovelFire
Gu Shimo did not tell her the real reason.
"Actually, I miss him a little."
She had always thought that Ye Qingwan was always with Ye Zixi, except for the last time when Ye Zixi was forced to separate from her due to the kidnapping incident.
"Since you miss him, we’ll go and fetch him back tonight."
Anyway, the matter on the Internet was almost settled.
Seeing that Ye Qingwan was recovering well, she personally went to ask Mrs. Lu to confirm it. Mrs. Lu should be able to put down her worries, right?
"Actually, I sent Zixi away on purpose. I want to spend a few days alone with you."
Gu Shimo gazed at Ye Qingwan with deep affection.
There were thousands of stars in his eyes, and every ray of light was blooming for her.
" I’ve thought about it carefully," he said in a slightly hoarse voice." We haven’t really gone on a date yet."
The two of them had never been in a serious relationship before, but they had naturally gotten together again.
It would be a pity for a girl to skip this part, right?
It was indeed not good for dating and dating to have a burden by her side.
"You’re so busy with work. How can you be free?"
In fact, the two of them were indeed in a state similar to an old couple.
Therefore, when Gu Shimo mentioned a date, Ye Qingwan’s heart inexplicably wavered.
Who didn’t yearn for sweet love?
Although he loved her and she loved him, which girl could resist the temptation of sweetness and romance?
"I’ll settle everything during the day and get off work on time. How about we go on a date at night?"
He looked at her seriously. The corners of his eyes curved, and a smile spread across his brows. That happy and expectant look on his face.
It made her heart skip a beat.
——
After the long lunch, they returned to the company.
Gu Shimo had to make time for a date with Ye Qingwan at night.
Therefore, the day became busier and more tense.
Just when he was busy, an uninvited guest came to the company.
This uninvited guest was none other than Tang Songkang, who had rushed over from the capital.
As the eldest son of Tang Bai Yong, even if they were not related by blood.
However, their legal relationship as father and son gave him the right and obligation to question Gu Shimo.
Chapter 596: Interrogation
If Tang Baiyong was angered by Gu Shimo, Tang Songkang would naturally be secretly happy. However, on the surface, he wanted to protect Tang Baiyong and treat Gu Shimo coldly.
This was also a good opportunity to sow discord between Tang Baiyong and Gu Shimo.
How could Tang Songkang not make use of it?
The mountain of documents on Gu Shimo’s desk almost drowned him. There were really a lot of documents that needed his signature and approval.
Sometimes, when he was too busy, he would sign the document without looking at the contents. The matter of checking could only be handled by his subordinates.
When the secretary’s desk outside called in and said that there was a guest from the Imperial Capital with the surname Tang who asked Gu Shimo if he wanted to meet him, Gu Shimo immediately flew into a rage. View the correct content at NovelFire.
"Call Lin Dan in!"
Soon, there was a knock on the office door. Lin Dan pushed the door open and entered.
"President, you were looking for me?"
"What’s going on at the secretary’s desk outside? Did she recruit a newcomer? She could directly enter the CEO’s office without an appointment?"
She had been following him for a long time, yet she was still making such a low-level mistake.
Lin Dan’s expression changed." I’ll go and find out about the secretary who just came in. I’ll ask the human resources department to arrange for her to leave."
"Yes."
Gu Shimo could not be bothered to ask about such a small matter. His style had always been strict and cold. He did not want to keep someone who was incompetent.
"Also, Tang Songkang, who just came from the Imperial Capital, take him to the reception room and wait for him. I’ll see him when I’m done here."
Since he had come looking for her so recklessly, she would just leave him alone for a while.
"Yes, CEO."
Lin Dan left.
After leaving the president’s office, Lin Dan took Tang Songkang to the reception room next door.
"Mr. Tang, as usual, our president won’t meet people without an appointment. However, since you’ve come from afar, our CEO will make an exception. I just have to trouble you to sit here for a while. President Gu will only come out to see you after he’s done with his work."
The reason why the secretary at the front desk sent the information of the visitors to the president’s office was not that the secretary did not know the rules.
It was Tang Songkang who handed over his business card after introducing himself.
Not only did the Tang Empire have great influence in the capital, but it also invested heavily in Country A, the mainland, Taiwan, and even the old capitalist countries in Europe and America.
Tang Songkang was the current CEO of the Tang Corporation. His appearance was actually more impressive than Gu Shimo’s.
The secretary did not dare to underestimate him, so she broke the rules and directly contacted the president’s office.
Tang Songkang was proud of his status.
He thought that Gu Shimo would come out to welcome him immediately, but he heard Lin Dan say that he had to wait in the reception room.
His expression darkened.
"Didn’t you tell Gu Shimo who I am?" she asked in a deep voice. Do you know how much money I make in a minute?"
He had actually asked him to wait for Gu Shimo here.
Tang Songkang felt as if he had been slapped in the face. His face was burning.
No matter where he went, the leaders of every city would welcome him personally.
What a fellow. He had come to the Gu Corporation in humble attire. He, Gu Shimo, was so thick-skinned to actually make him wait in the reception room!
It was no wonder that Gu Shimo did not even put Tang Baiyong in his eyes.
A ruthless character who dared to directly anger the old man to the point of hospitalization would not put Tang Songkang in his eyes.
Tang Songkang suddenly felt a little regretful. He felt that he had come to humiliate himself.
However, since he was already here.
He had not even seen Gu Shimo, and he had already left dejectedly. This made him feel even more embarrassed.
Thinking of his true purpose for coming, he took a deep breath and forced himself to endure it.
A little forbearance will spoil a great plan. A real man can yield and stretch.
Compared to him taking over the Tang Empire, what was this grievance?
Gu Shimo had been focused on his work for two hours. When he felt that his back was aching and his eyes were blurry, he left his seat and took a short break.
Tang Songkang had been ignored for two hours. It was time to meet him.
He wanted to see Tang Songkang come to his territory.
What did he want to do?
In the reception room, Tang Songkang was already impatient. He was half-leaning on the sofa with his eyes closed.
Chapter 597: Do You Want Me To Return To The Tang Family?
Hearing the movement on the door, Tang Songkang’s eyes suddenly opened and he immediately sat up straight.
"Ha, President Gu, you’re so arrogant!"
When Yi saw Gu Shimo and Tang Songkang, he couldn’t help but mock them.
"We’re all adults. There’s no need to argue like primary school students."
Gu Shimo casually pulled a chair over and sat down. He looked like he was on his home turf.
"I only have ten minutes to rest. If you have anything to say, please make it short."
Gu Shimo’s arrogant attitude made Tang Songkang’s nose almost crooked.
Was he the only one busy?
Tang Songkang was also the CEO of a huge business empire. His workload was no less than Gu Shimo’s. NovelFire
Tang Songkang sneered. Was President Gu showing off or showing off? Letting a guest waste two hours here is the Gu Corporation’s way of treating guests?"
Gu Shimo’s expression was calm, and his eyes were as cold as ice.
"I don’t remember inviting a guest with the surname Tang! Besides, since you feel that we didn’t treat you well, you can turn around and leave. Why must you suffer and wait here?"
He looked at his watch.
"You’ve wasted a minute and a half. Now, there’s only eight and a half minutes left." Gu Shimo said indifferently. I’m sorry that I overused my eyes just now, so please allow me to close my eyes and rest for a while. What do you want to say? I’m all ears."
As he spoke, he turned on his phone and set an eight-minute countdown.
He leaned back in his chair, relaxed his body, and slowly closed his eyes.
Tang Songkang suppressed his anger and finally got to the point.
"I heard that you were the one who angered the old master so much that he was sent to the hospital? How dare you!"
"Okay, continue with the story."
"You!"
Gu Shimo did not play according to his cards and disrupted Tang Songkang’s rhythm. He could not help but be stunned.
"The old master is already so old. It’s freezing cold and he came all the way to South City. As a junior, it’s fine that you didn’t think of receiving him properly, but you actually dared to contradict him and anger him. You have to give me an explanation today!"
"Why should I give you an explanation? I didn’t provoke him. He came looking for trouble himself."
Gu Shimo did not even open his eyes. He continued to pose in a position that made him comfortable as he spoke slowly.
"Tang Songkang, your appearance is really funny. You and I are both sensible people. Why play such a self-deceiving trick?! Are you really here to seek justice for Tang Baiyong? Do you really want me to agree to return to the Tang family and take over everything?"
Tang Songkang was speechless.
"The reason why you’re willing to swallow your anger and wait here for two hours is to add fuel to the fire, right? Because I haven’t angered Baiyong to death yet, right?
Perhaps if he added fuel to the fire, the old man would die.
In this way, I will become the sinner who killed the old master and will not be able to return to the Tang family. You can rightfully become the sole heir of the Tang family, right?"
Tang Songkang swallowed his saliva.
No wonder Gu Shimo was so arrogant and did not even put Tang Baiyong in his eyes.
His thoughts were really as cunning as a fox, seeing through his true thoughts at a glance.
Tang Songkang, who had been mercilessly exposed by Gu Shimo, turned red.
His heart was filled with anger.
As he regretted his actions, he secretly swore in his heart,"
Sooner or later, he would let Gu Shimo know how powerful he was to avenge the humiliation he had suffered today.
Chapter 598: How Long Did You Sleep?
Nancheng Hospital.
Tang Bai Yong slowly woke up from his coma.
He Yutang, who had been guarding beside him, felt that he was about to wake up when he saw his fingers move and his eyelids almost open. He immediately pressed the call bell.
Tang Baiyong had just opened his eyes when the doctor arrived.
He gave him a check-up and asked a few basic questions to confirm that he was fine for the time being.
The nurse pulled out the IV drip on the back of her hand and left with the doctor.
He Yutang immediately asked with concern," Old man, how do you feel? Are you hungry? I’ll get Xiaotang to buy you something to eat.""
"How long have I been asleep?"
Tang Baiyong waved his hand.
Elderly people have weak digestive functions, and the intake requirements for the Holy Grail are lower.
Sometimes, eating one meal a day was enough to satisfy the body’s needs.
"You’ve been sleeping for almost six hours. You haven’t slept well these two days, and you woke up early this morning to catch a plane. It’s inevitable that you’re tired. It’s good to sleep more to recover your strength."
He Yutang was afraid that he would recall what had happened before and get angry, so he took the initiative to find an excuse for him to explain.
"It should be."
Knowing that He Yutang was looking for a way out for him, Tang Baiyong did not say anything more.
If he hadn’t been woken up by the urge to defecate, he might have been able to continue sleeping.
"Help me to the bathroom."
"Alright, Old Master."
He Yutang quickly helped Tang Baiyong to the bathroom.
He Xiaotang left the ward and went out to buy food for He Yutang.
After coming out of the bathroom, He Yutang helped Tang Baiyong back to bed.
He raised the head of the bed and put a pillow on it so that Tang Baiyong could lean on it more comfortably.
"Yutang, I think there’s something wrong with my strategy."
It was Tang Baiyong who took the initiative to mention it, his old face full of disappointment.
"I see that Gu Shimo is determined not to return to the Tang family. He won’t listen to any persuasion or coercion."
"Young Master Shi Mo has gone a little overboard. How can he speak to you like that?"
Thinking of Gu Shimo’s attitude today, He Yutang couldn’t help but stand up for Tang Baiyong.
Tang Bai Yong actually thought it through.
She shook her head and sighed." It’s not his fault."
Although he was really angry at that time.
However, after he calmed down and thought about it seriously, he could have a more objective understanding of the situation.
His voice was a little muffled, but it was a fact that he had to admit.
"Just like he said, I was also responsible for Xiao Ying’s death. I’m afraid that I’m the only one left who’s related to Xiao Ying’s death. Who else can he blame if not me?"
".."
For a moment, He Yutang didn’t know how to respond.
He could only remain silent.
Pausing for a moment, Tang Baiyong smiled in relief.
Then, she said," The one who is favored has nothing to fear. He is arrogant and rude to me. Isn’t it because I have always spoiled him?"
He Yutang was originally afraid that he would go into a dead end, but when he heard him say that, he could not help but heave a sigh of relief.
"It’s a pity. How can Young Master Shi Mo understand your intentions?"
"This world has always been like this. How can someone be moved just because you show them your heart?"
As they were talking, He Xiaotang came in with porridge and snacks. He Yutang then prepared food for Tang Baiyong.
"By the way, the eldest young master has also come to South City."
He Yutang suddenly said as he prepared the food.
"However, when he came to the hospital, he left first because you were in a coma. He said that he was going to capture Gu Shimo and hand her over to you."
"Hehe, is that so?"
Tang Baiyong’s face revealed a meaningful smile," Why didn’t you stop him?"
"I see that he is filial and full of confidence. Anyway, he has nothing to do here, so it’s good to hit the south wall." Correct content is on NovelFire.
He Yutang and Tang Yong’s eyes met. NovelFire
They didn’t need to say much to understand each other’s meaning.
"Alright, then don’t worry about him."
Tang Songkang was satisfied and began to eat the porridge.
——
Tang Songkang had been rebuffed by Gu Shimo and felt very uncomfortable.
Although he had deliberately gone to sow discord between Tang Baiyong and Gu Shimo, Gu Shimo had mocked him and exposed his true colors.
Chapter 599: Family Is Like This
Tang Songkang lost his face and was so angry that he almost vomited blood.
When he had visited Tang Baiyong in the hospital, he had initially vowed to bring Gu Shimo over and let him do whatever he wanted with him.
Now, not only did he not bring Gu Shimo along, but he had also lost his self-esteem.
When she thought of Gu Shimo, she gritted her teeth in hatred.
After wandering outside for a long time, Tang Songkang calmed himself down and went to the hospital to visit Tang Baiyong again.
In the ward, He Yutang was playing chess with Tang Baiyong.
Seeing Tang Songkang come in, he got up and said,"
"Eldest Young Master, you came at the right time. I told Tang Xizheng to take turns to go to the hotel to wash up and change clothes before coming back. Then, I’ll have to trouble Eldest Young Master to accompany Old Master first."
"Uncle He, you go ahead."
As Tang Baiyong’s confidant, the Tang family was also very polite to He Yutang.
Even as the eldest son of Tang Baiyong, he was no exception.
"I’ll take care of the old man."
After He Yutang left, Tang Songkang asked about Tang Baiyong as if nothing had happened.
When Tang Baiyong saw his expression, he guessed that he must have been defeated by Gu Shimo.
But he did not expose Tang Songkang.
She only pretended to complain.
"You’re so busy with work. Why did you come here?"
Tang Songkang sat down on the chair beside the bed, took a banana from the fruit basket he bought, peeled it, and handed it to Tang Baiyong.
Her tone was sincere and concerned." I heard that you’re in the hospital again. How can I calm down and work? How do you feel now? Do you feel uncomfortable anywhere?"
"I’m fine. I took the opportunity to have a good sleep."
Tang Baiyong smiled and took a bite of the banana.
"I heard about what happened during the day."
Tang Songkang took the opportunity to make things difficult for Gu Shimo.
"Gu Shimo is really too kind. He took his good intentions for granted. You’re flying around at your age, and the weather is so cold. Even if he’s a complete stranger, he shouldn’t be so arrogant. He doesn’t take you seriously at all."
Tang Baiyong did not care about it and explained on Gu Shimo’s behalf," I’ve ignored him for so many years. I don’t think he’s mentally prepared to suddenly appear in front of him."
"He’s not a child anymore. Can’t he feel whether others treat him well or badly? Did he need to be mentally prepared? He made you so angry, and you still speak up for him?"
Tang Baiyong laughed lightly," You speak as if you have never angered me before!"
".."
Tang Songkang was speechless.
"Isn’t that how a family is?"
Seeing that Tang Songkang was a little embarrassed, Tang Baiyong took the initiative to ease the atmosphere and said," Because they are one of us, they will say whatever they want without fear. They are polite and polite, and they are always maintained when they are with outsiders.""
Although Tang Baiyong took the initiative to help him, Tang Songkang understood that Tang Baiyong was taking the opportunity to beat him.
"Dad, no matter what decision you make, I will support you with all my might."
Tang Songkang restrained himself and tried to persuade Tang Baiyong.
"But this Gu Shimo obviously doesn’t know what’s good for him. If you indulge him like this, he will only become worse." NovelFire
"It’s better to let nature take its course. Wouldn’t it be better to wait for him to figure it out and then slowly talk about it? I can’t bear to see you torture your body like this. It’s best to take care of yourself."
"Yes, you’re so thoughtful."
Tang Bai Yong smiled slightly and said slowly," I’ll do as I see fit."
The two of them chatted for a while.
Tang Songkang’s words were nothing more than conveying a thought.
She wanted Tang Baiyong to force Gu Shimo to take care of himself and enjoy his later years.
How could Tang Bai Yong not understand what he was thinking? But he just smiled and didn’t say a word, not exposing him or embarrassing him.
Not long after.
He Xiaotang came over to take over after washing up.
Tang Songkang also felt that he couldn’t continue chatting with Tang Baiyong, so he took the opportunity to leave the hospital.
Looking at Tang Songkang’s back, Tang Baiyong fell into deep thought.
It was the Tang family who raised Tang Songkang until now.
Although legally, they were indeed father and son.
But Tang Baiyong didn’t think he owed Tang Songkang anything. He found Tang Ying’s descendant.
Chapter 600: A Date
He owed Tang Ying and her son for so many years. Tang Baiyong only wanted to arrange everything before his death.
It would allow Gu Shimo to acknowledge his ancestors as soon as possible and successfully take over the Tang Empire.
To Tang Songkang, Gu Shimo’s return would directly threaten his position in the Tang Empire.
Therefore, he subconsciously rejected Gu Shimo. Anyone with a brain could think of that.
Tang Songkang was now the only one in the Tang Corporation.
However, because he was still alive, he did not dare to cause any trouble.
If he died...
Tang Songkang would immediately be able to turn the tables, suppress the original elders, and support his confidants. Correct content is on NovelFire.
He would make the Tang Empire his property.
Even if Tang Songkang was Tang Baiyong’s son in name, an adopted son was still an adopted son. The inheritance of the Tang Empire naturally had to be inherited by the legitimate descendants of the Tang family.
However, he had completely offended Gu Shimo and Ye Qingwan today, and the situation seemed to have gotten worse.
Thinking about it carefully, the reason why Gu Shimo was so rude to him was probably because he knew that he had gone to argue with Ye Qingwan.
From the looks of it, Ye Qingwan was still the key person who influenced Gu Shimo.
Just as Xue Yunfei had said, the reason why Gu Shimo was unwilling to accept the Tang family was because Ye Qingwan felt inferior.
That was why she was against Gu Shimo.
Even if she did not stop him outright, she was still trying to persuade Gu Shimo not to do his best.
If she wanted to change Gu Shimo’s mind, she would have to work on Ye Qingwan first.
Tang Baiyong said his thoughts to He Yu and Tang Ting.
He Yutang also agreed." Old Master, if that’s the case, why don’t you and Ye Qingwan get along better?""
——
In the capital.
Xue Yunfei had successfully contacted her former pursuer, Xu Chuanyi, a medical doctor who now had a place in the field of mental illness research.
Xu Chuanyi was overwhelmed by the sudden contact from his former goddess.
Because he had always been obsessed with research, Xu Chuanyi’s life was basically a two-point line.
Dormitory, research room, research room, dormitory. Although there were a few girls who were secretly making eyes at him, Xu Chuanyi, this straight man, did not understand romance. In the end, he relied on his strength to be single until now.
Or perhaps, it was because he still had fantasies about Xue Yunfei.
Therefore, when he received Xue Yunfei’s call, he thought he was hearing things.
She looked at the name on the caller ID several times and pinched her thigh.
After confirming that it was true, he was so ecstatic that his heart was about to jump out.
Especially when Xue Yunfei threw out the bait, saying that she had some medical questions that she wanted to ask him and asked if he was free to have a meal together.
Xu Chuanyi finally understood what it meant for happiness to come too quickly.
Even though he knew that Xue Yunfei had suddenly come to him and was definitely not just asking him for medical advice, he still could not wait to agree.
In order to meet his goddess at night, Xu Chuanyi left early for once. He went to tidy his hair, buy clothes, wash his hair, shave his beard, and make himself feel refreshed. He arrived at the meeting place early.
The two of them met at a western restaurant and each ordered a steak set.
"After so many years, Xue Yunfei, you’re still as beautiful as ever."
Xu Chuanyi, who had made some achievements in the academic world, was still as innocent as a young man who had just woken up in love in front of his sweetheart.
Xue Yunfei smiled, maintaining the elegance of a goddess.
Her voice was gentle." Yes? But you’ve changed a lot. You’ve become more mature and confident."
"I really didn’t expect that in my lifetime, we would be able to sit down and have dinner together like this."
Xu Chuanyi looked like an idiot, but he was secretly happy and felt like he was in a dream.
"This is life! In life, all kinds of accidents and miracles could happen at any time."
She smiled lightly, and his heart went crazy.
"Xu Chuanyi, you’re already a medical doctor in the field of mental illness. That’s amazing!"
She praised him with a smile and suddenly thought of another problem.
"I almost forgot. I suddenly asked you out for dinner. Your girlfriend or wife won’t misunderstand us, right?"
