Chapter 641: Do You Want Me to Carry You Over?

Xue Yunfei put on some perfume and stood in front of the mirror. She looked at her sexy beauty in the mirror and was extremely satisfied.

She fantasized about it again. If Gu Shimo went on a date with her, he would definitely be charmed by her, and then...Dry firewood and raging fire.

Her heart was burning as she thought about it, and she quickly stopped her thoughts.

She patted her face again before leaving the room.

She had to give Xu Chuanyi a little hope. Being aloof was the best way to maintain her attraction to him.

Occasionally, he would let the other party take advantage of him, like holding hands, hugging, or even kissing.

In short, he could give the other party some benefits, but he could not completely satisfy the other party.

When she reached Xu Chuanyi’s house, she rang the doorbell and Xu Chuanyi personally opened the door for her.

The sound system in the living room was playing the lively Faust Waltz, making people involuntarily want to move their feet and dance along with it.

"This beautiful lady, would you like to dance with me?"

Xu Chuanyi said impatiently as soon as Xue Yunfei entered the door and before she could even change her shoes.

He placed his left hand behind his back and raised his right hand slightly, drawing a standard invitation gesture.

Xue Yunfei looked inside and asked," Your student hasn’t arrived yet?"

"Yes, they will be a little late."

As he spoke, Xu Chuanyi held Xue Yunfei’s left hand and led her into the living room.

The house Xu Chuanyi lived in was also very big. The living room was spacious and spacious. It was enough for a group of people to dance together.

Accompanied by the music, the two of them waltzed to the beat accurately.

"I thought you had been studying so hard that I didn’t know you could dance."

In the confined space, the two of them danced in each other’s arms.

Xu Chuanyi looked at her passionately again, leaving Xue Yunfei with nowhere to hide her gaze. She could only find something to say.

"I guess you don’t remember."

Xu Chuanyi smiled." The first time we met, we were fated to dance."

"What? There’s such a thing?"

Xue Yunfei was shocked. She really couldn’t remember when they first met.

"I’ve never heard you mention it."

The smile on Xu Chuanyi’s face deepened, and he finally looked further away, as if he was reminiscing the moment when they first met.

"It was at your freshman welcoming ball. I was going to your school to meet a friend, but I was forced to attend the welcoming ball by my friend."

".."

He looked at her with a burning gaze." The first time I saw you, you were dancing in a red dress. When you spun, the dress danced in a big circle, like a gorgeous red spider lily. I immediately decided to invite you to dance."

".."

"At that time, there were so many people who invited you to dance. I couldn’t even wait in line. After that, I invited another girl. Halfway through the dance, I asked her if she could switch partners. He wasn’t willing to change, but I didn’t expect you to agree."

".."

"In the end, I held your hand. Every time I think back to that moment, I feel that it was the peak of my life."

"I’m sorry, I really don’t remember that."

Although she didn’t have any feelings for Xu Chuanyi, being remembered and infatuated by someone like this still made her feel happy.

"It’s okay. You met too many people that day. I believe you don’t remember most of them."

"That’s true. However, isn’t the peak of your life now?"She tilted her head and made a cute expression. "You have a successful career now, and you have both fame and fortune..."

"Also, hold your hand!" He added with a smile as he looked at her affectionately again.

"He will encounter pain and happiness as he advances, but he is never satisfied."

He hummed a sentence from Faust and looked at her as the dance neared the end.

"In the past, I thought that it would be beautiful to be able to see you from afar. Later, I thought that if I could invite you to dance again, I would really reach the peak of my life. Today, it finally came true, but I had another layer of greed. I wanted every day in the future to be the peak of my life."

Just as the dance ended, Xue Yunfei broke free of his hand and took a step back.

"Aiyo, I haven’t even changed my shoes. I’ve dirtied your floor. I’ll go change my shoes first and wash my hands. I haven’t moved for a long time. I still feel a little hot after dancing for a while."

"Alright, go wash your hands. I’ll prepare something for you to drink."Xu Chuanyi knew that she was deliberately avoiding him, but he did not expose her." What do you want to drink? Fruit juice? Iced coffee? Cocktails?"

"Juice!"

Xue Yunfei changed her shoes and went to the bathroom to wash her hands. Xu Chuanyi had already poured her a glass of orange juice.

She hadn’t been exercising recently. She had just danced a three-step dance and was actually sweating a little. She was feeling thirsty, so she picked up the cup and took a big gulp.

After drinking it, he felt that the orange juice was slightly bitter. He subconsciously glanced at the orange juice in his glass.

She asked Xu Chuanyi," Isn’t this freshly squeezed orange juice?"

"Ah, I’m sorry. Because I’m usually busy, it’s difficult to take care of the juicer. I always buy ready-made juice. Is the taste not good?"

"No wonder it tastes a little bitter."

A certain brand claimed to be 100% pure fruit juice, but it did taste a little astringent.

Xue Yunfei didn’t suspect anything. She took another two sips and felt her thirst subside a little before putting down the cup.

"When are your students coming?"

It was just the two of them. Xue Yunfei felt awkward.

"It should be soon. I’ll call and ask."

Xu Chuanyi turned around and found his phone. freeNovelFire.c o(m)

As she pretended to make a call, she pointed at the sofa in the living room." Have a seat. I’ll go to the kitchen to prepare.""

"Do you need my help?"

Xue Yunfei asked.

"You’re a guest. How can I ask you to cook?"

He smiled and comforted her." I bought half-finished products. They’ll be ready soon. Can you wait for me for a few minutes?""

"Alright then."

Xue Yunfei sat down on the sofa with a clear conscience. View the correct content at NovelFire

She watched Xu Chuanyi talk on the phone as he walked towards the kitchen." Where are you guys? How much longer until we arrive?"

Xue Yunfei retracted her gaze and took out her phone from her bag, intending to play with it for a while.

Suddenly, she felt a little dizzy in her head. She subconsciously reached out to rub her head, but it was useless. Slowly, her eyelids became heavy.

With a clang, the phone in her hand fell to the ground.

Xue Yunfei’s head tilted and her body fell onto the sofa.

Xu Chuanyi’s figure slowly appeared at the kitchen door when he heard the voice.

His gaze was distant and infatuated as he looked at Xue Yunfei, who was lying on the sofa, and a smile appeared on his face as if his scheme had succeeded.

..

When Xue Yunfei slowly woke up, the first thing she felt was the soreness all over her body.

When he wanted to move his body, he found that his limbs were soft and each movement was very strenuous.

She was puzzled. When she looked down at her body, she realized that she was naked, and she was lying on a big bed in an unfamiliar room.

"You’re awake?"

A voice suddenly sounded.

Looking in the direction of the voice, Xue Yunfei saw Xu Chuanyi, who was wearing a bathrobe and had wet hair.

"You haven’t eaten dinner yet. Are you hungry? I’ve prepared the food. Do you want to come down and eat by yourself, or do you want me to carry you over to eat?"

Xu Chuanyi asked with a smile.

His tone was so matter-of-fact that he didn’t feel that there was anything wrong between the two of them.

 

Chapter 642: Recording a Video

"Xu Chuanyi, what did you do to me?!"

Until now, Xue Yunfei still didn’t know what had happened. She was just too stupid.

No wonder she felt that the orange juice tasted a little off when she drank it.

She had lowered her guard.

Seeing her glare at him, Xu Chuanyi spread his hands.

"Why do you ask when you already know?"

He was not annoyed and sat down by the bed.

He placed his hand on her body through the blanket." Of course, we’re doing what we love to do."

Xue Yunfei was so angry that her entire body was trembling. She grabbed a pillow from behind and threw it at Xu Chuanyi.

Her voice was sharp." Xu Chuanyi, you’re so despicable!"

Xu Chuanyi tilted his head and dodged the pillow, which fell to the ground in the distance.

Xue Yunfei’s eyes were filled with murderous rage as she roared.

"I want to sue you for rape!"

"Sue! Just sue me!"

Xu Chuanyi tightened his grip on her body, causing her to cry out in pain.

However, he looked at her mockingly." I don’t even have the courage to go to jail for you. How can I say I love you? You see, Yunfei, my love for you is so deep."

"Shut up! Don’t use your filthy mouth to say the word ’love’!"

Xue Yunfei was so angry that her eyes turned red. She almost roared," If you really loved me, why would you do such a despicable thing?"

"Oh."

Xu Chuanyi covered his mouth with his hand and pretended to be terrified.

"You think my mouth is dirty? What should I do? Just now, this filthy mouth kissed your entire body."

As soon as he finished speaking.

He used his other hand to pull the blanket off her. NovelFire

A scream of "Ah" was heard.

Xue Yunfei’s body, which he had toyed with for more than an hour, was exposed to him again.

Xue Yunfei was so angry that she was about to explode.

When she thought about what he had done to her, she really wanted to pounce on him and dig out his eyes, cut off his hands, and then tear him into pieces. Only then could she vent the hatred in her heart.

However, all she could do was pull the blanket over herself in a panic.

"Get lost. I don’t want to see you again!"

She pointed at the door. She was naked now, so she couldn’t just get up.

"This is my home. Where do you want me to go?"

Xu Chuanyi did not feel guilty at all. Instead, he looked at her and said calmly.

"I, I, I will sue you!"

Xue Yunfei looked at the sanctimonious face he was looking at, and the more she thought about it, the more she couldn’t swallow her anger.

She looked around but did not see her phone.

"Are you looking for this?"

However, Xu Chuanyi seemed to have read her mind. He cooperated and handed her the phone.

Xue Yunfei snatched the hand and subconsciously wanted to call the police.

Xu Chuanyi was not worried at all. He reminded her casually.

" Ah, to facilitate the police investigation, I can also provide video information.""

"You..."

Seeing that her hand had stopped, the corners of his mouth curled up. She smiled.

He leaned over and the hot air blew into her ear.

She asked in a vulgar manner,

"Baby, do you want to enjoy the passionate process between us first? Didn’t you lose consciousness? You don’t know the exact process. Perhaps you can check if the service I provided is satisfactory?" NovelFire

"You, you, you..."

Xue Yunfei was so angry that she couldn’t stop trembling.

Looking at the perverted face in front of her, she really had all kinds of thoughts of killing him.

"Xu Chuanyi, are you still worthy of being a teacher? Do you still have any sense of propriety and shame?"

"In this world, is there any man who uses propriety, righteousness, and shame to get the woman he loves?"

Xu Chuanyi stood up.

He picked up Xue Yunfei’s clothes that he had stripped off and thrown on the ground, and gently placed them in front of her.

"Didn’t Zhang Ailing say that the shortcut to a woman’s heart is...I just couldn’t help it. It’s not like I’m not responsible for you."

"I proposed to you to get married. I just saw that you were hesitant, so I wanted to help you make up your mind."

"Now, you’re already my woman. As long as you agree, we’ll set the wedding date immediately. How about it?"

He saw her staring at him.

He looked like he wanted to kill him.

Xu Chuanyi pinched her chin, lowered his head, and kissed her again.

 

Chapter 643: It’s Enough to Get Your Person

Xue Yunfei struggled with all her might.

The disparity between men and women’s strength, her struggle, in exchange for the quilt, and then being torn off.

After that.

She was awake and he raped her again. NovelFire

By the time it ended, she was so tortured that she only had the strength to breathe.

Xu Chuanyi said as he put on his clothes.

"I really don’t like to drag things out. Just like how I do research, I don’t enjoy the process. I just want to get the results I want as soon as possible.

I’ll go out first. You put on your clothes and come out. Let’s eat and talk. How about that?"

"Xu Chuanyi, stop daydreaming! Even if you get my body, you won’t get my heart. I won’t let a pervert like you have your way!"

"It doesn’t matter. I just want to get your person."

His gaze swept across her body that was covered in marks.

Xu Chuanyi gave her a frivolous smile and turned to leave the room.

Inside the room, Xue Yunfei’s hysterical screams could be heard.

Xue Yunfei had miscalculated.

She had thought that Xu Chuanyi was an honest man who only knew how to read.

She did not expect that under his hypocritical face, there was a dirty and perverted soul.

——

After Ye Qingwan and Zuo Zhi had spoken on the phone, Zuo Zhi knew that she was worried about Gu Shimo, so he conveyed Ye Qingwan’s message to Gu Shimo when it was convenient for him.

Gu Shimo was busy until it was almost midnight before he finally had time to call Ye Qingwan.

Because of the time difference, it was late at night at Gu Shimo’s place, but it was morning at Ye Qingwan’s place.

"Wanwan."

Gu Shimo sounded very tired.

Ye Qingwan’s heart ached, but her voice was gentler than usual.

"Brother Shi Mo, how are you? Is everything going smoothly?"

"I’m investigating and negotiating. Don’t worry, I’ll handle it."

Gu Shimo comforted her.

"Old Master Tang contacted me and said that he wanted to help you."

Ye Qingwan was unable to make decisions for Gu Shimo. At this critical moment, she could only do what she could.

"I’m not trying to help Old Master Tang persuade you. I’m just conveying his intentions. The final decision is still yours. The stock price of the Gu Corporation hasn’t been doing well recently..."

"Didn’t I tell you before? If Tang Bai Yong comes looking for you again, just let him contact me directly."

Gu Shimo’s indifferent tone represented his attitude.

"Since the establishment of the Gu Corporation, it has not received any help from the Tang family, yet it has developed to such a large scale.

Similarly, even without Tang Baiyong, the Gu Corporation would still be able to survive the crisis."

"That’s true. I just don’t want to see you so tired..."

Ye Qingwan’s heart ached when she saw him go from one place to another like a fire-fighting hero, with almost no rest days in a year.

"With you and Zixi around, I won’t feel tired no matter how tired I am."

"Unfortunately, I can’t help you much..."

"Why can’t I help? Aren’t you cheering me on now?"

In order to reassure her, he laughed.

" It’s been a chaotic day today. I feel like I’m about to die." However, when I heard your voice just now, I immediately came back to life."

"Wanwan, I know you and Zixi are waiting for me. Therefore, no matter how difficult it is, I can overcome it and solve it, just to return to your side as soon as possible."

"Brother Shi Mo, are you really okay?"

Ye Qingwan knew that he had always been the one to take responsibility for his own problems, so he only comforted and encouraged her.

Because he had a weakness, he had to be strong no matter how big the storm was.

"I’m fine. You really don’t have to worry. It was normal to have profits and losses. There was no need to be afraid of encountering a crisis. Just think of a way to solve it.

A centipede will never die, just like how we defend a city. As long as there are no problems internally, it will not be easy for an attack from the outside to break through the city gate."

Gu Shimo’s voice sounded a little hoarse and tired.

However, Ye Qingwan could hear the confidence in his words, which meant that Gu Shimo was confident.

Thinking about it, he was right.

She felt a little more at ease.

 

Chapter 644: Chapter 644-

Ye Qingwan said in a relaxed tone,

"I understand. Brother Shi Mo, you’re too tired. Rest early. I won’t take up any more of your time."

"Alright, I’ll do it. Wanwan, take care of yourself and Zixi when I’m not around.""

"I will. Brother Shi Mo, you’re the one. Don’t overwork yourself and hurt your body."

"Yes."

Ye Qingwan was not satisfied with his smiling words. NovelFire

She felt that he did not take her health seriously.

" Although the Gu Corporation is important, you’re the number one priority.

Even if the Gu Corporation goes bankrupt, you still have me. I can support you.

But the premise is that you must be healthy. I won’t raise a delicate and sickly person."

Ye Qingwan’s words amused Gu Shimo.

"Wow, I didn’t expect Gu Shimo to be able to live a good life. Wanwan, are you serious? If I go bankrupt and close down, will you support me?"

"Yeah, I’ll support you, but you know what the prerequisites are for living off a woman, right?"

"Yes, you always have high standards. You have good looks, good stamina, and a lot of postures. Looks like I have to work hard to eat more and take better care of my body."

".."

Ye Qingwan cursed.

Command the tone of the speech, add meal the matter, can be tomorrow to consider again. It’s time for you to sleep now." Correct content is on NovelFire.

"So this is what it feels like to live off a woman? Then I can indeed go to sleep in peace. I have to lay a solid foundation for living off a woman."

He paused.

He added ambiguously," When I go back in a few days, I’ll definitely make my Wanwan satisfied.""

"Satisfied with what?"

He pretended not to understand.

"Of course, it’s because I’m satisfied with my physical strength and technical posture. Wanwan, I miss you so much. Why don’t you let me take a look now?"

"What are you looking at?"

Ye Qingwan couldn’t help but be affected by that man.

She couldn’t help but think of those nights.

He kissed her passionately and wanted to see her.

Her little face heated up.

The man’s voice seemed to be right beside her ear." Wanwan, I just showered and put on my pajamas. Are you home? Why don’t we do it via video call..."

"In your dreams."

Ye Qingwan couldn’t continue chatting with him.

She said stiffly," I’m not going to talk to you anymore. Go to sleep.""

"Alright, then. Good night, Wanwan. Good night, my rice bowl."

Ye Qingwan laughed." Good night, pretty boy.""

The Gu Corporation’s stock price fell by the limit for several days.

Although there were big orders every day, under the deliberate suppression of people with ulterior motives.

The stock price of the Gu Corporation continued to fall.

Driven by this downward environment, a large number of individual investors fled, and the group began to panic.

One day, Ye Qingwan suddenly received a call from Xue Yunfei.

" Ye Qingwan, I’m Xue Yunfei."

As soon as she came up, Xue Yunfei immediately reported her family.

" Miss Xue, are you that free?" Ye Qingwan asked coldly. I thought we didn’t have any friendship between us, right?"

"You’re right. There’s really no friendship between us. Besides, I don’t want to be friends with you. Do you think I want to call you? I called you because I have something to tell you."

"Long story short, I’m very busy."

Ye Qingwan said impatiently.

Xue Yunfei was irritated by her attitude. She took two deep breaths and calmed down.

"You’ve seen the situation at the Gu Corporation, right?"

Xue Yunfei did not beat around the bush and went straight to the point.

"The crisis of the Gu Corporation this time is obviously intentional. And I, by chance, found out who did it and what their next step was. Do you want to know?"

"Who did this?"

Ye Qingwan asked immediately.

"What’s the next step?"

"Why should I tell you for no reason? I know that you and I hate each other."

Xue Yunfei naturally wanted to bargain." There’s no free lunch. You should know this.""

"Then what do you want me to do?"

 

Chapter 645: Taking advantage of a burning house

Of course, Ye Qingwan wasn’t so naïve as to think that Xue Yunfei was here to make a contribution.

There was something to give and there was something to gain.

"It’s very simple. As long as you’re willing to cooperate with me, I’ll tell you everything I know. How about it?"

Xue Yunfei threw out the bait at the right time.

—— NovelFire

At the same time, Tang Baiyong once again appeared in the south city. NovelFire

This time, the crisis of the Gu Corporation was so big that Tang Baiyong observed it for a few days and felt that he could not sit idly by.

Although Gu Shimo had rejected his help, he was willing to take the initiative to lend him a helping hand.

When they arrived at the South City, Tang Baiyong immediately met Ye Qingwan.

"Miss Ye, we meet again."

Tang Baiyong looked at her with a fake smile.

Ye Qingwan looked at him calmly.

Her tone was cold." Yes, we meet again. The old man was really strong in his old age."

She was also convinced.

This old man was old and didn’t feel tired at all, running around.

Even after staying in the hospital a few times, he still did not stop. He knew that Gu Shimo did not like him, but he was still so tenacious.

Wasn’t this too idle?

Tang Bai never cared about her coldness.

She laughed and said,

"I know you’re busy, Miss Ye, so I’ll get straight to the point. The Gu Corporation is in grave danger this time. You should have seen it."

".."

"Shi Mo is currently overseas. He’s probably already in a terrible position dealing with the matters over there. He’s simply unable to split his attention to the situation in the country.

If someone stood out at this time and injected a shot in the arm for the Gu Corporation, the Gu Corporation would be able to get through the crisis very quickly."

Ye Qingwan already knew why he was here.

On account of the fact that he was an elder and it was not easy for him to come all the way here.

Ye Qingwan patiently listened to him.

"Thank you, Old Master Tang, for thinking about the Gu Corporation and Brother Shi Mo.

However, since Brother Shi Mo has clearly rejected you, then please respect Brother Shi Mo’s wishes and let him think of a way to resolve it himself."

Tang Baiyong clicked his tongue and looked at Ye Qingwan in disappointment.

"Ms. Yates, Shi Mo is currently in a state of internal and external trouble. Haven’t you thought of sharing some of his burden?

I’m very sincere in wanting to help him. Can’t Miss Ye even do something as small as this?"

Ye Qingwan frowned.

Tang Bai Yong was still questioning,

"Does Miss Ye really love Shi Mo? Have you really thought about him? If she really loved him, she wouldn’t have watched him struggle alone in the whirlpool, right?

You clearly have the ability to help him, but you don’t want to help him. Are you trying to ignore this matter?"

She saw him looking at her angrily after asking the question.

Ye Qingwan said slowly.

"Old Master is right. Since you have the ability to help him, can’t you just help him directly?"

"Why did you specially call him to ask if he needed help?"

"You even came to see me and ask for my opinion. What is this?"

She returned his question.

Ye Qingwan looked down at her phone.

Tang Baiyong was silent for a few seconds to calm himself down.

When she spoke again, her tone was a little better than before.

"Miss Ye, I’m a businessman. Business is business. I can help Gu Shimo.

But what identity am I using to help him now? Isn’t it unfair?"

"I understand. Old Master, do you mean that if you want to help, you have to first confirm the relationship between Gu Shimo and the Tang family?"

Tang Baiyong slapped his thigh, a gratified smile appearing on his face.

He seemed to find her pleasing to the eye again.

"Miss Ye is indeed a smart person."

".."

"If Gu Shimo is a member of the Tang family, then it’s reasonable for the Tang family to help him, isn’t it?"

".."

"Moreover, with the support of the Tang family, those scoundrels who covet the Gu Corporation will definitely be afraid."

".."

"How is it? Isn’t it beneficial to Gu Shimo? He was originally of the Tang family’s bloodline, and sooner or later, he would have to acknowledge his ancestors and return to the family."

Ye Qingwan smiled speechlessly.

"So Old Master Tang didn’t come to deliver timely rain, but to take advantage of the situation."

 

Chapter 646: As Long as He Reveals His Ancestors

The moment she said that, the atmosphere changed.

He ignored the anger on Tang Baiyong’s face.

Ye Qingwan looked down at her phone.

"However, I’m really sorry. I can’t make any decisions for Brother Shi Mo. Moreover, I respect and support any decision he makes."

"You..."

Tang Baiyong held it in and didn’t finish the last few words.

Ye Qingwan smiled." Also, I told him that if the Gu Corporation really goes bankrupt, I will support him.

Therefore, we appreciate your kindness, Old Master. You really don’t have to worry too much."

Tang Baiyong was stunned by her words.

"What is it? You’re raising Gu Shimo? Are you saying that Gu Shimo should rely on women to make a living?"

"Why not? I’m willing to be his support."

Tang Baiyong almost laughed out of anger.

"It’s fine if you guys just laugh in private. Would Gu Shimo really let a woman support him for the rest of his life?

He was such a proud person. Could he tolerate the people around him pointing at him?"

"You want to live off a woman? Can’t you stand this little grievance? A real man can yield and stand up. As long as he’s willing to eat, I can afford to give him a bowl of soft rice!"

"Ha!"

Tang Baiyong seemed to be both angry and laughing." Miss Ye, are you full of confidence in yourself?"

"Of course."

"Even if he’s willing to suffer such grievances, can you bear to see him suffer?

Didn’t you say that you love him? You said that I don’t understand love before, but I don’t think you’re doing any better than me.

If she really loved him, she naturally had to think for him. How could she say that she loved him while watching him suffer?"

Ye Qingwan pressed her forehead in frustration. This old man was so stubborn.

"Old Master, I also want to help Brother Shi Mo, but he’s not willing to acknowledge the Tang family. What can I do? Don’t you have any self-esteem?" View the correct content at NovelFire

Ye Qingwan had always been.

Old Master Gu had been thick-skinned and had been ruthlessly rejected by Gu Shimo on New Year’s Eve. In his anger, he would no longer pay attention to Gu Shimo.

She had not expected him to come over again when Gu Shimo had something to do.

He really wouldn’t give up until he reached the Yellow River.

"I’m an old man who’s about to die. What’s there to talk about self-esteem?"

Tang Baiyong was very disapproving.

The first step of a successful businessman’s career was to throw away his self-esteem.

Otherwise, the business would not be able to continue.

"My life has already entered the countdown. If I can’t deal with this matter before I die, I won’t be able to rest in peace."Tang Bai Yong started to play the emotional card again.

"You know my current son, Tang Songkang, right? He’s not my biological child. He’s just an adopted child.

At that time, my wife and I wanted to have another child, but we couldn’t get pregnant.

We had no choice but to adopt a boy. After that, my wife got pregnant with Xiao Ying."

".."

"To us, Xiao Ying is a gift from the heavens. Although after a long time, I gradually forgot this fact, so much so that I lost her later."

He said regretfully,

"I’ve never done anything I regret in my life, except for Xiao Ying’s death in a foreign land.

And in the few days that I have left, the only thing I can do for her is to find her flesh and blood.

He wanted the Tang family’s bloodline that had wandered outside to return to its rightful position."

".."

Now, he regretted what he had done back then.

Tang Baiyong saw that she was unmoved.

’Heartless woman,’ he thought to himself.

He added,

"There’s one more thing. Wasn’t Xiao Ying’s grave robbed last time? I’ve already given in. It’s Tang Songkang who’s playing tricks."

Ye Qingwan looked up at him in surprise.

He said,

"I didn’t expect that I would actually invite a wolf into my house."

".."

"If Shi Mo doesn’t return to his position, our Tang family will fall into the hands of this greedy person.

The Tang Empire should be inherited by the descendants of the real Tang Family!"

Tang Baiyong patiently explained to Ye Qingwan.

Seeing that Ye Qingwan was still indifferent, he was tired of talking. Before he left, he asked Yang Feng to stay and talk to Ye Qingwan.

 

Chapter 647: Won’t Let Go

Actually... NovelFire

As for Tang Baiyong, who had disregarded his health and traveled back and forth between the Imperial City and South City over and over again...

Yang Feng objected.

Like Gu Shimo, he was Tang Baiyong’s grandson.

To say that the Tang Empire’s right of inheritance, he is also qualified.

However, he had no intention of getting involved in this family dispute.

He had already reached an agreement with his mother to give up the rights to inherit the Torres Group.

Although he was worried about Tang Baiyong’s health and was angry at Gu Shimo’s coldness and ruthlessness, he was still worried about Tang Baiyong’s health.

However, Old Master Tang was so persistent in wanting Gu Shimo to acknowledge his ancestors. Yang Feng could only hide his dissatisfaction and silently support his grandfather.

From his standpoint, if he objected, it would probably cause a misunderstanding.

Moreover, he was worried that if Old Master Tang really gave up on looking for Gu Shimo, he would eventually force him to take over the Torres Corporation.

It was better to avoid trouble.

Therefore, even though Old Master Tang had returned from South City in defeat time and time again, he had never been able to do so. NovelFire

He also turned a blind eye and let the old man do whatever he wanted.

This time.

When Old Master Gu heard that the Gu Corporation was in trouble, he thought that it was the best time to attack, so he asked him to come to South City with him.

In fact, Yang Feng had already expected the outcome.

When Tang Baiyong asked him to stay and chat with Ye Qingwan, Yang Feng didn’t know what to say.

He had already told Grandpa Shen and Tang Yiheng what he needed to say several times, but he felt as if he was chewing wax.

In addition, she was young and vigorous. How could she have the patience and tenacity of the old man to be the annoying Xianglin Sao?

However, he could not disobey the old master’s orders.

He briefly explained the Tang family’s current situation to Ye Qingwan.

He also emphasized,"The crisis of the Gu Corporation this time is very likely the work of Tang Songkang and Xue Hongchang. The two of them worked together and were in cahoots. The prey they targeted could not escape the calamity."

He was only in charge of stating the pros and cons, unlike Tang Baiyong who forced Ye Qingwan to agree to any conditions.

A wise man doesn’t need to be instructed, and a drum doesn’t need to be hammered. Those who understand naturally understand.

If she didn’t want to understand, she could pretend that she didn’t understand. Anyway, the decision was on Ye Qingwan and Gu Shimo’s side.

Yang Feng did not want to waste his breath.

The next day, during the day, was also the night at Gu Shimo’s place.

While the two of them were on the video call, Ye Qingwan told Gu Shimo about Old Master Tang’s visit to South City.

Gu Shimo maintained his previous attitude and said that he did not want to get involved in the Tang family’s matters.

No matter what kind of person Tang Songkang was, it had nothing to do with him.

However, he would not let go of the person who had plotted against the Gu Corporation.

——

Ever since Lu Mingyu’s mother (Fan Ziqing) went to the famous restaurant, Immortal Duck, to eat the signature dish of the restaurant, she had started researching and making it when she returned home.

Because they had to experiment with seasoning, the Lu family ate this Immortal Duck for the next few days.

In the beginning, Lu Mingyu was quite happy. Although the smell that Mother Lu copied from her memory was not as stunning as that in the restaurant, it was still quite fragrant.

However, after eating for a few days, Lu Mingyu and his son began to protest.

Even if it was a delicacy, wouldn’t he get sick of eating the same dish every day?

Even though Fan Ziqing’s taste was improving every time he modified it, Lu Mingyu could no longer tell the difference.

Coincidentally, the Gu Corporation was in such a mess, so Fan Ziqing knew that Ye Qingwan must be upset too.

However, she could not help much.

So she wanted to take this opportunity to invite Leng Xiao Duan and Ye Qing Wan to taste and comment on her cooking.

Just take it as a token of her appreciation.

Although the Lu father and son had already eaten until they vomited.

But for Leng Xiaoduan and Ye Qingwan, it was still a new dish worth tasting.

Fan Ziqing even emphasized on the phone that Ye Qingwan should bring Ye Zixi along.

At such an important moment, of course, he had to be with his family, so that they could comfort and warm each other.

Ye Qingwan didn’t have any other plans for the night, and Leng Xiaoduan was free after work, so she followed Fan Ziqing’s suggestion and went to the Lu family’s house for dinner.

Because Fan Ziqing had already announced what dishes would be served tonight, the Lu father and son both claimed that they would not be coming back for dinner because they had a social engagement.

The Lu family only had Mother Lu and Fan Ziqing, so it was suitable for the three women to have some private conversations. It was more convenient to have less scruples.

After a few adjustments, Fan Ziqing’s own memory of the Immortal Duck was basically comparable to the taste of the dish made by the online celebrity shop.

Ye Qingwan hadn’t been to this shop since that time.

It was a good thing that his popularity had increased, but his disadvantages had also become apparent.

It was just that the original manpower and material resources could not keep up with the needs of the customers, especially when everyone’s meal time was highly consistent.

Because it was difficult to make reservations, parking was difficult, and the waiting time was long, it was inevitable that some people who did not have the time and patience would give up.

Ye Qingwan was one of them.

Ye Qingwan did not expect Mother Lu to be able to make such a delicious duck. She had been worried about Gu Shimo, so she had not had much of an appetite for the past few days.

But here, Fan Ziqing’s own cooking had opened his taste buds.

"Wow, Godmother, you’re too amazing. You only went to taste it once and you can replicate the exact same taste. I’m impressed by you!"

Ye Qingwan couldn’t help but eat a little more than usual, praising Mother Lu’s cooking.

Leng Xiaoduan was also amazed." Aunty, you’re really good at touching gold!" You can consider sharing it on a special cooking app. If the recipe you share is popular, it can even enter the rankings. It might even be signed by merchants to advertise."

Ye Qingwan suddenly had an idea and said," We don’t have to go anywhere else. Why don’t we open a special column on our official account and share the recipes with Godma? That way, Godma can enjoy the advertising revenue immediately.""

Fan Ziqing saw that Ye Qingwan and Leng Xiaoduan had such high praise for this dish.

Her persistent adjustment process was finally not wasted.

Just this alone was enough for her to feel gratified.

As for Ye Qingwan and Leng Xiaoduan’s suggestion to share the recipe, she didn’t take it to heart. She just took it as an extension of their recognition of her cooking skills.

"I’m already very happy that you’re willing to do me the honor of supporting me. I haven’t thought of anything else, and I won’t. You guys don’t know, but in order to experiment with this dish, I ate Mingyu and his father until they vomited. Aiya, do you think I called you here because of this?"

"Of course not, Godmother. We can’t be more grateful. It’s not easy to go to that online celebrity shop to eat this dish, but we can sit here and enjoy it slowly. It’s been hard on you, godmother."

"It’s not hard, it’s not hard. This is already the fifth edition I’ve modified. If you think it tastes the same as the one in that shop, I don’t need to make any more adjustments. I’ll make it for you the next time you want to eat it."

"It’s already the same taste."

Leng Xiaoduan said," Auntie Lu, you don’t have to work so hard to adjust anymore. I’ve been to that shop several times and my tongue is already familiar with its taste. It’s this taste. Also, didn’t I say that I would teach you how to use all kinds of apps? Next time, I’ll teach you how to use a few commonly used apps. When you learn it later, you can really consider opening a column on our official account, if Sister Qing Wan agrees."

"No problem!"

Ye Qingwan said enthusiastically.

 

Chapter 648: Send Her Home

Ye Qingwan, Leng Xiaoduan, and Ye Zixi finished the duck. Their mouths were full of oil because Mama Lu had eaten too much a few days ago and didn’t want to have another bite.

After dinner, Leng Xiaoduan rushed to wash the dishes and let Mama Lu and Ye Qingwan sit down and chat for a while. NovelFire

At 8:30 pm, Ye Qingwan saw that it was getting late, mainly because Ye Zixi had to go home early to wash up and go to bed. A growing child should not sleep too late.

"Godmother, thank you for your hospitality today. Next time, we’ll treat you to a meal."Ye Qingwan stood up and said goodbye.

Ye Zixi bowed and thanked Mama Lu." I’m so full today. Thank you, Grandma, for making such delicious dishes for us.""

"Zixi is so obedient. If you like it, come again next time."

Mama Lu was overjoyed when Ye Zixi called her " grandma ".

"Wanwan, take care of yourself too. Don’t think too much. Heaven will help the good. Gu Shimo will definitely get through this."

"I will, Godmother."

Ye Qingwan left with Ye Zixi first.

Leng Xiaoduan wanted to follow them, but Mother Lu stopped her and said," Xiaoduan, you don’t have to go home so early to sleep, do you? Didn’t you say you were going to teach me how to use the APP? Why don’t you teach me first while we still have some time?"

Since Mother Lu had asked Leng Xiaoduan to stay, Leng Xiaoduan did not need to rush home.

Ye Qingwan supported Mother Lu and persuaded Leng Xiaoduan to stay a little longer.

"Xiao Duan, you can stay and accompany Godma. It’s fine if you go to the office later tomorrow."

Leng Xiaoduan had no choice but to stay behind and teach Mama Lu how to use all kinds of commonly used apps.

One taught seriously, the other learned seriously.

Unknowingly, two hours had passed.

"This is the APP I often use to buy vegetables."

After teaching Mama Lu how to use a few useful mobile applications, Leng Xiaoduan helped her download an application for grocery shopping.

"This APP is very convenient and worry-free. You don’t have to queue up at the market to pay. You don’t have to worry about buying too much and not being able to finish it."

Just as he was introducing the APP, the sound of unlocking came from the door.

Mrs. Lu and Little Leng looked up and saw that Lu Mingyu and his son had returned together.

"Why did you two come back together?"

Mother Lu stood up and went up to greet them. Leng Xiaoduan had no choice but to follow suit.

"We met at the entrance."

Lu Yandong passed his jacket to Mama Lu.

He felt that Leng Xiaoduan was unfamiliar." This is?"

"Hello, Uncle Lu. My name is Leng Xiaoduan. I came with Sister Qingwan. She left first because she had something to do."

Leng Xiaoduan quickly greeted Lu Yandong.

"Ah, so you’re Leng Xiaoduan." Lu Yandong looked as if he had just realized something."

He must have heard about Leng Xiaoduan from Fan Ziqing, but he had never had the chance to meet him.

Leng Xiaoduan subconsciously glanced at Lu Mingyu.

Coincidentally, Lu Mingyu also looked over at her.

Lu Mingyu did not say anything and only nodded at her.

"Mingyu, you don’t have to change your shoes."

Fan Ziqing stopped Lu Mingyu from changing his shoes." It’s getting late. Send Xiao Duan back first before coming back.""

Leng Xiaoduan was so frightened that he waved his hands." Auntie Lu, it’s alright. I can call a car.""

Mother Lu was unwilling to let her go back alone. She gave Lu Mingyu a look." Mingyu, you won’t go to bed so early anyway. Why don’t you send Xiao Duan off first? It’s all thanks to her today that she taught me how to use many mobile applications. Anyway, I can’t count on you."

Lu Mingyu was also helpless after being mocked by Fan Ziqing.

However, he still maintained the proper etiquette when he spoke to Leng Xiaoduan.

"Let’s go, Little Duan. I’ll send you back."

"No need, really. It’s very convenient for me to call a taxi on my phone."

How could Leng Xiaoduan not know Mother Lu’s intentions? She was even more afraid of the awkwardness and uneasiness when she was with Lu Mingyu.

"The world outside is so dangerous now."

Fan Ziqing insisted," Let Mingyu send you.""

"Yes, I am."

Lu Mingyu only wanted to end the battle quickly." You’ve been evading for so long. Who knows, I might have sent you home long ago."

Leng Xiaoduan was afraid that he would turn into a hypocrite if he declined too much, but he was also afraid that Lu Mingyu would be impatient.

He could only bite the bullet and agree.

"Alright then, I’ll trouble Lu... Mingyu, thank you."

After taking her bag and bidding farewell to the Lu parents, Leng Xiaoduan and Lu Mingyu took the elevator downstairs together.

"Um, you really don’t have to send me back. I can go back by myself."

In the elevator, Leng Xiaoduan reiterated his stance. NovelFire)

Lu Mingyu looked indifferent." It’s alright. There’s no traffic jam at night, so it won’t take long. It’s just nice to use the bathroom time with my dad."

Since Lu Mingyu had said so, Leng Xiaoduan could not continue bargaining.

She followed him to the parking lot and sat in the passenger seat of his car.

"Did my mom make that Immortal Duck to entertain you today?"

On the way, Lu Mingyu took the initiative to find a topic to talk about while driving.

"Yes, Auntie Lu is too strong. She can replicate it just from one memory. I’m in awe."

Leng Xiaoduan said sincerely.

Lu Mingyu smiled.

"My mother is indeed talented in this area. However, I don’t want to eat this dish anymore. After eating it for a few days, I feel like vomiting when I smell duck meat."

"Auntie Lu will be sad to hear you say that, right?"

"That’s why she invited you to my house today. I think she should be satisfied and happy, right?"

"We ate up that duck, but we still haven’t had enough. Auntie Lu should be quite happy."

The highest praise for a chef was to eat the food made by the other party and treat it as a form of enjoyment.

After that, the two of them seemed to be at a loss for words, and the car fell silent.

"By the way, do you want to listen to music?"

After a while, Lu Mingyu broke the silence and said.

"I remember that you like classical music, right? I happen to have a record in my car."

Leng Xiaoduan was slightly embarrassed." I’m fine with anything." He doesn’t just like classical music."

Lu Mingyu pressed the music play button, and an impassioned, multi-piece music immediately flowed out of the player.

Hearing the familiar melody, Leng Xiaoduan subconsciously asked,""This seems to be the background music from Tom and Jerry."

"Yes, this is Tchaikov’s ’Sleeping Beauty Waltze’. The cartoon’ Tom and Jerry ’used a lot of classical music as the background music, so many people feel that the melody is very familiar when they listen to it."

"You seem to know a lot about this. Have you learned it before?"

"I learned piano for a while when I was young. Later, when I practiced Bach, it was too painful, so I gave up."

At this point, Lu Mingyu could not help but laugh." Besides, I actually don’t have any talent in music. I don’t think there’s a need to waste my time."

"But boys who can play the piano are very handsome."

"Indeed, that’s what girls think."

The two of them chatted casually. Seeing that the car was about to turn in the other direction, Leng Xiaoduan quickly said,"Just stop by the side of the road. I moved, so I’m not in my original neighborhood."

Because Lu Mingyu had sent Leng Xiaoduan home before, he thought that Leng Xiaoduan was still in the same neighborhood. When he heard that she had moved, he slowly slowed down and stopped the car by the side.

"Do you live in this neighborhood?" Lu Mingyu pointed at the gate of a residential area in front of them and asked.

"Oh, right." Cold and small, he lied.

"Be careful."

"Okay, thank you for sending me back."

Leng Xiaoduan said goodbye to him and got out of the car.

Lu Mingyu only started the car and drove forward when he saw her slowly walking towards the neighborhood in front.

It turned out that she lived near his neighborhood.

It was no wonder that after she sent him home last time, she could still cook some hangover soup and send it to him the next morning.

 

Chapter 649: Why Don’t We Make A Deal?

Lu Mingyu didn’t know that Leng Xiaoduan was walking backward after he drove out of the street.

He was heading in the direction of his new apartment.

Her home was not in the neighborhood near his apartment.

Instead, she was in the same neighborhood as him.

——

A month later.

Gu Shimo finally ended his long business trip.

Although it took a long time, fortunately, the crisis was resolved in the end and they returned to South City safely.

When Ye Qingwan saw him, she couldn’t believe it.

In less than a month, Gu Shimo had lost a lot of weight. He had even lost a size in his clothes. NovelFire

Ye Qingwan’s eyes reddened.

She called out,"Brother Shi Mo."

Her slender body fell into his arms.

"Wanwan, I’m back."

As soon as Gu Shimo finished speaking, he lowered his head and kissed the little woman in his arms deeply.

His longing for her was as deep as hers.

Absence makes the heart grow fonder.

Moreover, such a long separation was not a small separation for Ye Qingwan and Gu Shimo.

It was countless years.

Not only did she raise her little face to receive his kiss, but she also responded to him warmly.

From the door to the bathroom, a passionate kiss...

After an unknown amount of time.

Ye Qingwan was carried out of the bathroom by Gu Shimo.

Under the light, her charming eyes were like silk, and her face was as red as blood.

He whispered in her ear," Wanwan, be good. Open your eyes and look at the mirror.""

Gu Shimo stood in front of the mirror and coaxed her in a low voice.

"No."

..

In the end, Ye Qingwan fell asleep.

"

..

Back from a business trip.

Gu Shimo had to start dealing with the company’s accumulated matters without stopping.

He had to meet all kinds of people and socialize.

That night, when she was having dinner with Fu Yushen, they naturally talked about the crisis that the Gu Corporation had gone through.

According to Gu Shimo, it was the Tang family and the Xue family who were stirring up trouble.

Fu Yushen was surprised, but after thinking about it, he understood.

"If there’s anything I can do for you, just let me know."

Fu Yushen said to Gu Shimo.

Gu Shimo nodded and said in a low voice," Don’t worry, I won’t stand on ceremony."

Fu Yushen put some food into his mouth.

She sized up Gu Shimo.

A moment later, he added," You should also take care of your body. You’ve lost a lot of weight in a month." I’m not afraid that you’ll die young and Wanwan will marry someone else."

Gu Shimo rolled his eyes at him.

" Don’t worry," she said confidently." I’ll definitely live longer than you.""

He said slowly that he should get married as soon as possible."

Fu Yushen sighed deeply.

He changed the topic and stopped talking about this.

-

Before the first wave subsided, another wave rose.

The crisis of the Gu Corporation had just been resolved.

One day, negative news about the Gu Corporation was exposed on the Internet.

Someone posted:

It was said that a new drug produced by a pharmaceutical factory under the Gu Corporation had a problem.

It caused several deaths, and the Drug Administration had already stepped in to investigate.

Once this news was released, it rushed to the trending list within an hour.

The Gu Corporation’s crisis was once again brought up and analyzed by people with ulterior motives.

A stone stirred up a thousand ripples.

The Gu Corporation, which had finally calmed down, was once again in a crisis of brand trust.

This made Gu Shimo, who was already working non-stop, even more exhausted.

Gu Shimo was busy again until midnight before returning home.

As soon as he got out of the car, his entire body immediately fell into a huge darkness.

At this time, almost everyone in the villa area was asleep.

The buildings that stood in the dark were like sleeping beasts.

She was tired from being exposed to the sun, rain, and all kinds of noise in the daytime.

It was a spring night that made people sleepy and had the best sleep. Everyone else was enjoying the most relaxed moment.

Only the bright light came from that building.

Seeing the light shining through the room, Gu Shimo’s originally tired and heavy mood became much lighter.

As he walked into the living room of the villa, Gu Shimo saw Ye Qingwan lying on the sofa.

Needless to say, she must have planned to wait for him to come back.

Unfortunately, it was too late. She waited on the sofa in the living room and fell asleep.

The corners of Gu Shimo’s mouth twitched slightly, and his body, which was originally full of strength, could not help but soften.

She walked forward quietly and bent down. Gu Shimo planned to carry her upstairs.

However, as soon as he touched her body, she immediately shivered and woke up.

"Brother Shi Mo, you’re back?"

Ye Qingwan grabbed his arm and slowly sat up straight.

Her watery eyes looked at Gu Shimo with heartache.

As he was not fully awake, his voice carried a hint of drowsiness.

"Yes, I’m back."

Gu Shimo gently caressed the top of her head, his heart soft and comforting.

He spoke softly, afraid that he would wake her up. "Why aren’t you sleeping in your room? You don’t have to wait for me. What if you catch a cold?"

"I want to wait for you to sleep together."

She stood up and held his arm.

"You must be very tired. I’ll go and get you a bath. Soaking in the bathtub can relax your body."

"Alright, I’ll listen to you."

The two of them held hands and went upstairs.

Ye Qingwan went into the bathroom to fill up the bathtub for Gu Shimo. Gu Shimo put away his coat and brushed his teeth and washed his face.

Ye Qingwan then put a few shower tubes into the bathtub.

The water in the bathtub exploded like a rainbow.

Her nose was filled with a fresh and romantic fragrance.

Every time she used this bath, she would be in a good mood and her entire body would smell good.

Gu Shimo also cleaned himself up and walked in naked.

"Brother Shi Mo, you soak first. I’ll go out."

Although the relationship between the two of them had long been intimate, Gu Shimo was still naked.

Ye Qingwan was still a little shy and didn’t know where to look.

"Why? Are you still embarrassed to see my body?"Gu Shimo grabbed her wrist." Didn’t you see everything long ago?"

"That’s different, okay?"

Ye Qingwan’s body stiffened slightly.

"Brother Shi Mo, it’s getting late. Hurry up and take a bath. After that, you can rest early." By the way, the bath explosion I put in has the function of nourishing and skincare. After you are done soaking in it, just dry it directly. There is no need to wash it separately."

"If you’re not sleepy, why don’t you sit beside me while I take a bath and we can chat?"

His hand slid down and landed on her palm, their fingers interlocked.

"Then go into the bathtub first. I’ll wait for you to go in before coming back."

She still looked away, not daring to look him in the eye.

Gu Shimo smiled dotingly." Alright then, I’ll go into the bathtub first. However, you have to get used to it early. It seems that I’ll have to make you do it with your eyes open in bed in the future."

Ye Qingwan was so embarrassed that she couldn’t hide her face. Her face was so red that it looked like she had applied rouge.

"Brother Shi Mo!"

Gu Shimo laughed out loud.

He let go of her hand and gently pinched her cheek.

"Why is our Wanwan so shy?"

After Gu Shimo entered the bathtub, Ye Qingwan walked over calmly.

Even though she had calmed down, the blush on her face had not completely subsided.

Gu Shimo was lying in the bathtub.

His head leaned against the edge of the bathtub, and the gentle and bubbly water supported his body.

It slowly removed the calluses that had formed from the hardships he had endured in life.

 

Chapter 650: Misfortunes Never Come Alone

Humans were naturally creatures that liked water.

Because the fetus lived in the waters of the womb, putting one’s body into the water was like returning to the fetus ’period of being surrounded by the waters of the womb. It gave rise to an inexplicable sense of security and comfort.

"I had a meeting for the whole day today, and my head is about to explode."

Gu Shimo leaned back and closed his eyes to rest as he spoke to Ye Qingwan.

"You have to cooperate with the Drug Administration’s investigation and appease the families of the deceased."

A pair of gentle little hands landed on his head, and all ten fingers exerted strength together.

With an even amount of force, it slowly penetrated into his brain, calming the chaotic pressure in his brain.

"The last time Godma brought me to the SPA, the technician inside massaged my head like this."

Ye Qingwan massaged him and said," I may not have done it properly, but it’s better than nothing. You should feel better after a massage.""

Gu Shimo was enjoying her massage service proudly. Because it was too comfortable, he could not help but let out a sigh. NovelFire

"Wanwan, your technique is professional and comfortable."

"Really?"

"Yes."

"You must be exhausted today!"

Hearing her heartbroken words, Gu Shimo’s heart softened.

She smiled and said," When God closes a door, he will definitely open another window. I think this sentence is really true.

God gave me so many trials and tribulations, but at the same time, he gave me a treasure, a treasure called Ye Qingwan.

Because of this treasure, no matter how painful or torturous it is, my heart will be calm and happy."

Ye Qingwan’s hand paused for a moment and she frowned slightly." Brother Shi Mo, is the matter at the company more serious than before?"

"Because of the rumors of death, it seems more serious than before.""

Perhaps it was because he was soaking in the bathtub, or perhaps it was because of Ye Qingwan’s massage that he felt relaxed.

Gu Shimo’s voice sounded very calm and relaxed.

In order to not let her worry.

he said as calmly as he could.

"The specific situation will have to wait for the autopsy analysis report."

".."

"I’m still very confident in our company’s drugs. After all, we’ve gone through thousands of clinical trials before we launched them on the market.

Even if an accident happens, as long as our medicine passes the test of the Drug Administration.

After settling the compensation for the deceased’s family, the matter would be settled very quickly. There was no need to worry."

"Really?"

Ye Qingwan, who had been extremely worried, felt much more at ease after hearing what he said.

"I see that you leave early and return late every day. You don’t even have time to sleep. I’m really worried about what will happen if you collapse."

"I won’t fall because you’re by my side."

He smiled." When I returned home with a body full of hostility and darkness, the darkness that enveloped me was immediately dispelled when I saw the light that you had specially turned on for me."

".."

"Hearing your voice and feeling your loving touch, the hostility in my body was driven away. Because I have you as my backing, I will never fall."

Ye Qingwan didn’t expect that she would play such an important role in his heart.

Hearing his words, she couldn’t help but be moved.

She lowered her head and kissed his lips. NovelFire

Gu Shimo was slightly stunned, but he immediately accepted the kiss that came from the opposite direction.

This was the first time they had kissed from such an angle, and it brought a different kind of excitement and comfort.

They carefully tasted and explored. The night was deep, quiet and beautiful.

——

By the time Gu Shimo returned to his room after taking a bath, Ye Qingwan had already run back to her room out of shyness. She covered herself with the blanket and pretended to be asleep.

He climbed onto the bed and was about to lift her blanket when his phone rang.

Gu Shimo’s heart skipped a beat. A phone call in the middle of the night must not be a good thing.

She grabbed the phone and saw that it was an unknown number.

It was a special period, so he was afraid that something important had happened, so he quickly pressed the answer button.

"Hello, I’m Gu Shimo."

"Ah, luckily!"

On the other end of the phone, Tang Baiyong’s voice sounded.

He sounded relieved.

"I was wondering if it was inappropriate to call so late, but I’m afraid you’re still up at this time."

When he heard that it was Tang Baiyong calling, Gu Shimo’s anxious heart finally calmed down.

"It’s so late. What’s the matter?"

Although he felt a little more at ease.

However, Gu Shimo felt a little annoyed by Tang Baiyong’s relentless pursuit of him regardless of the time and place.

"Are you really so busy that you haven’t slept yet? Did I disturb you?"

Tang Baiyong’s tone was a little cautious.

"I was just about to go to bed. If there’s nothing else, I’ll hang up."

"Shi Mo, look at how tired you are every day. There’s clearly a bright path in front of you. Why did you choose the most time-consuming and difficult path?"

"It’s too late. I don’t have the time to discuss such philosophical issues with you."

Gu Shimo did not want to waste his time on meaningless arguments.

He said indifferently," Also, I hope that you won’t make such meaningless calls at this time. You might as well sleep and recuperate.""

"I’m worried about you, so I can’t sleep."

Tang Bai Yong sighed," Although you don’t appreciate it. Besides, I’ll be sleeping after I die. I should cherish the time I have left and do something meaningful."

".. If you know that I don’t appreciate it, why do you keep struggling?"

Gu Shimo had been holding back his anger and wanted to fight back.

However, she felt a little sad when she heard his words, and she finally responded helplessly.

"It’s said that if you don’t forget, there will definitely be echoes. I tried to get a hit at [1].

".."

After hanging up the phone, Gu Shimo stared at his phone in silence for a long time.

Ye Qingwan sat up as well. She had heard the contents of their conversation just now.

"Is it Elder Tang?"

He glanced at the clock on the wall. It was already half past two in the morning.

"Yes."

Gu Shimo put down his phone and reached out to hug Ye Qingwan. They slowly lay down together.

"I thought you were sleeping. Did I wake you up by calling?"

"No, I didn’t fall asleep in the first place."

Ye Qingwan also hugged him tightly. They leaned on each other and were connected.

"It’s getting late. Hurry up and sleep."

Gu Shimo patted her gently.

" What about you?"

She looked up at him.

"I’ll sleep with you."

"Alright."

She smelled the scent of Gu Shimo’s body after the bath.

Feeling the warmth of his body, Ye Qingwan felt very safe.

He closed his eyes and quickly fell asleep.

Vaguely, Ye Qingwan felt her body falling.

When she opened her eyes, she realized that she was lying on the bed alone. Gu Shimo was no longer there.

She turned around.

She saw that the curtains on the balcony had been pulled open and that Gu Shimo was smoking on the balcony outside.

He had his back to her, so she couldn’t see his expression. She could only see the smoke drifting away.

It hovered above his head for a while before slowly dissipating into the wind.

Ye Qingwan didn’t bother him, nor did she ask him why he was troubled.

Even the most intimate lovers would have secrets that were difficult to talk about.

It wasn’t that he didn’t trust the other party, but that there were already hardships in this world that he didn’t want others to know about.

However, the next night, Ye Qingwan woke up in the middle of the night and saw Gu Shimo smoking alone on the balcony.

From his back, she could smell a hint of wavering.

It seemed that what Tang Baiyong had said on the phone the other day had touched Gu Shimo.
