She deliberated on how to address this Mr. Shen San, and after a moment of contemplation, she realized that she didn't even know his name.

  However, she didn't say a word. And neither did the other person.

  "Miss Yang, I am Shen Jia-yu."

  Yang Furong was slightly stunned, he called over the phone and first reported his name, although a bit strange, it really solved her embarrassment, as if through the telephone line, there is a pair of eyes that can see through what she thinks in her heart.

  "Oh, hello, Mr. Shen."

  Next, she didn't know what to say either, feeling a bit awkward. After all, according to their relationship, they should be fiancés, except for not having obtained the certificate, it was already settled.

  Not only the betrothal gift, but also a ring. It was brought over by Shen Guan's family three years ago and given to her by Yang Tongliang. It was a very beautiful diamond ring. At that time, when she received it, Yang Susu thought the diamond ring was expensive and tried every means to take it away. Later, Song Tianjiao blocked her with the sentence "Shen San Shao is a pervert", which really scared Yang Susu.

  The diamond ring had been safely locked in her jewelry box all along and was rarely opened.

  "I'm going to Shanghai for two days and coincidentally you're also in Shanghai. Can we spare some time to meet up?"

  Yang Mu Xiao didn't know how to respond anymore.

  Direct refusal?

  It seems a bit inhumane, at least they are polite and courteous.

  Then see you?

  Yang Mochen is now going to break off the engagement with him. If they meet, it's just right to clarify things face-to-face.

  "Okay, when you arrive, give me a call."

  She hung up Shen San Gongzi's phone and Yang Fuxiao leaned against the wall, stunned for a while. This Shen San Gongzi was even more mysterious than Gu Qingcheng, with only "pervert" and "special hobby" descriptions online, and not even a single photo existed.

  Won't it be scary if I directly ask her out to a nightclub and have sex?

  The mobile phone rang, and Yang Fuxiao suddenly came back to his senses. He took a glance at the screen of his mobile phone, and his hand shook, almost dropping the phone.

  Ancient City of Gu Qing!

  It's done, I just received a call from Shen San Gongzi and forgot about Gu Qingcheng!

  She hastily opened the hotel room door and rushed out. As soon as she went out, she suddenly remembered that she had forgotten to pull out the room card, and her bag was still left on the shoe cabinet at the door.

  The more anxious you are, the more anxious you become.

  Yang Mo gently touched her forehead and didn't bother to answer Gu Qingcheng's phone call. Anyway, the ten minutes had already passed three minutes ago, so instead of rushing out in such a sorry state, she might as well tidy herself up neatly before going out to meet Gu Qingcheng.

  She went downstairs to the front desk, checked in and got a spare key card from the service staff, swiped it to enter, thanked them repeatedly. This time before leaving, she put her room card and phone into her bag, double-checked that there was nothing left behind in the room, then closed the door.

  He turned around and saw Gu Qingcheng standing three meters behind him.

  Backlight

  The natural light pouring in from the window at the end of the corridor cast a black silhouette on Gu Qingcheng's body, with a circle of gold edges.

  Yang Mu Xiao walked over and only then did he see Gu Qing Cheng's expression clearly, which was ambiguous.

  She cleared her throat and took the initiative to admit her mistake: "Sorry, General Gu, I made you wait for a long time. This time I'll go to Fangda on foot."

  Gu Qingcheng directly picked up Yang Moxiao's bag with one hand, and with the other hand, he gently brushed a strand of hair away from her face, "Let's go."

  Yang Mu Xiao stood still on the spot. The low-pitched horn sounded.

  What is Gu Qingcheng doing with her bag?

  Is that a lady's bag? Not a briefcase, not a folder, nor a plastic bag containing men's toiletries.

  As Gu Qingcheng walked to the elevator entrance, he turned around and opened his eyes to find Yang Fuxiao still standing stiffly in place. "Not coming?"

  Yang Buruoxiao hastily ran over in small steps.

  Gu Qingcheng threw her bag back at her as soon as they stepped into the elevator.

  In fact, even if Gu Qingcheng let her go to Fangda, Yang Fuxiao would still be willing.

  It wasn't until I lost it that I realized the importance of appreciating what I had. Before, I never knew how great it felt to be able to walk freely and effortlessly. Now, after lying in bed for a week and being cooped up in my room for another week, walking on the street feels refreshing, even with the smoggy air. Every step feels light and carefree, and even taking a leisurely stroll is a pleasure.

  Getting off the car, Yang Xiao followed behind Gu Qingcheng, even running and jumping along.

  Gu Qingcheng's footsteps paused slightly: "Be careful or you'll jump right into the pit."

  As soon as the sentence fell, Yang Xiaodong had not yet come back to his senses, a young man riding a motorcycle in front of him, "ah" and the front wheel fell into a hidden well in front of him, the whole person was thrown to the ground, four limbs stretched out.

  Yang Mu Xiao looked at it and felt painful, closed his eyes.

  The security guard who was in charge of parking next door rushed over and pulled the young man up, while the sports car drove away.

  Yang Fu Xiao swallowed a mouthful of saliva and followed behind Gu Qing Cheng, starting to walk obediently.

  On the bus, Gu Qingcheng had already told Yang Fuxiao the purpose of this trip to Fangda.

  It's about an upcoming international business and economic trade forum to be held in City C, where Ya Huan is competing with another major hotel in City C for the hosting rights, and the final result has not been announced yet.

  Yang Mu Xiao didn't understand: "What does Fang Da want to do now? Does he also want to fight for the hosting rights?"

  "No," said Gu Qingcheng, "Fang Da is strong in the headquarters, but its influence is somewhat weak in the C City branch. It just wants to cooperate with Ya Huan and compete for this project. Compared with competitors, it has a more advantageous human and material resources."

  "Uh..." Yang Xiao paused for a moment, "What's going on between you and Liang Yufan? I feel like you two knew each other before?"

  Gu Qingcheng raised an eyebrow: "University classmates, but we didn't get along well."

  "Oh."

  Even if she was jumping around outside, once she entered Fang Da's door, Yang Fu Xiao became very steady, but without wearing high heels, marching in step behind Gu Qing Cheng wasn't as majestic.

  Fangda is indeed a large enterprise, with a reasonable layout inside. It is roughly divided into executive office area and staff office area, as well as various departments that are uniformly planned, unified in administration and handed over to the president's office.

  In the living room, Gu Qingcheng sat down and looked at Yang Duanxiao's eyes shining with excitement, like a little deer darting around, full of curiosity everywhere, and asked: "You haven't been to MSC yet, have you?"

  Yang Fu shook his head: "No."

  And then there was no more of it.

  Yang Mo Xiao had already gotten used to Gu Qing Cheng's habit of only saying half of what he meant, so she simply stood behind him.

  It was Liang Yufan who met with Gu Qingcheng in the living room. Apart from Liang Yufan, there was also Fang Da's creative director, a short-haired woman who looked very capable and wore glasses.

  Gu Qingcheng and Liang Yufan sat down after shaking hands. The secretary who was waiting outside had already placed three cups of tea on the table.

  Yes, three cups.

  Liang Yufan, Gu Qingcheng and this creative director.

  There is no Yang Xiaodong.

  Yang Fu Xiao didn't take it to heart either, after all, Gu Qing Cheng's definition of her before was just a vase, vases are used for decoration, not flower pots used for planting flowers, useless.

  Drink water? Forget it, it's better if you don't even pour water.

  "This is our business plan."

  The creative director sat down, spread a document on the table and narrated some key points about this cooperation.

  Yang Mu Xiao stood behind, because he had understood in the car beforehand, now it didn't sound like a complete mess.

  Liang Yufan sat on one side drinking tea and handed over the right of explanation to the creative director beside him.

  Gu Qingcheng responded to the creative director's words, grasping some small details inside, occasionally asking a couple of questions, and was relatively harmonious.

  "Dawn."

  Gu Qingcheng suddenly called out her name, startling her, "Present."

  "Come over and sit down. I'd like to show you the proposal for the trade conference in the hotel banquet hall and hear your thoughts."

  Yang Mu Xiao looked at Gu Qing Cheng, wasn't this something we didn't agree on beforehand?

  She didn't prepare anything and just went up like this?

  Apart from Gu Qingcheng, Liang Yufan and the creative director's eyes all fell on Yang Fuxiao.

  Now, I have to grit my teeth and go up anyway.

  Yang Mu Xiao walked over and sat down, suppressing the turmoil in her heart. She picked up the business plan in front of her and flipped through a few pages. Earlier, she had also been listening to the director's explanation, so she already understood most of the content. Now, as she casually flipped through the paper draft, some details became clear to her.

  "I think at the banquet lanterns...... sorry."

  Maybe it's been a long time since I spoke, so when I opened my mouth to speak, my voice was a bit hoarse, like there was sand in my throat, and it felt rough. After clearing my throat, the normal sound came back.

  Gu Qingcheng raised his head and glanced at her, then picked up the teacup on his left hand and handed it directly to Yang Fuxiao.

  "Thank you, General Gu."

  Yang Mo Xiao did not decline and took it over, drinking two mouthfuls. The tea water was newly replaced, and the teacup had not been used by Gu Qing Cheng yet.

  Liang Yufan had already raised his hand to ask the secretary behind him to bring another cup of tea, and before leaving, the female secretary took a special look at Yang Fuxiao, still not quite understanding why a mere flower vase secretary could also sit down and drink tea.

  Gu Qingcheng slightly leaned back, resting his hand on the back of the sofa, and Yang Xiao's smiling profile looked particularly gentle at this moment, not like a cat that would explode in anger at any time, looking much more docile. His hand suddenly lifted, and he couldn't help but pinch her cheek.

  Then Yang Fu Xiao's voice suddenly stopped.

  Nature, sitting opposite Liang Yufan and creative director's astonished eyes also looked over at Gu Qingcheng.

  Dead silence.

  Yang Mu Xiao was thinking, at this time, whether to turn around and ask after Gu Qing Cheng first, or continue talking, or lower her head and pretend to be shy.

  However, she really did blush, and her heartbeat couldn't be suppressed anymore, because of Gu Qingcheng's action just now, it became even more intense and out of control.

  Gu Qingcheng's outstretched hand stiffened for a moment, and his eyes flashed with a hint of light as he avoided Yang Fu Xiao's face, leaning over to pick up the teacup from the other end, raising it slightly, and smiling faintly: "I'm just picking up the teacup, please continue."

  Yang Mu Xiao: "......"

  Alright.

  Compared with Gu Qingcheng's thick skin, I will always be at a disadvantage.

  She forced herself not to think about the gentle touch that Gu Qingcheng's accidental touch had brought to her cheek, and also forced herself not to raise her hand to stroke the skin on her cheek that he had touched. This really required willpower.

  Li Yufan, who was sitting opposite, raised an eyebrow and naturally didn't miss the movement of Gu Qingcheng's hand freezing on Yang Fuxiao's cheek after the office fell silent, as well as the fleeting loss of focus in Gu Qingcheng's eyes.

  He put down the teacup in his hand and stroked his chin.

  He seemed to understand some of what Gu Qingcheng said last time: "Actually, many things are not my intention."

  ………………

  The final contract was still settled by Gu Qingcheng and Liang Yufan.

  Yang Mu Xiao stood on one side, watching as Liang Yu Fan extended his hand and shook hands with Gu Qing Cheng, "Nice doing business with you."

  Liang Yufan suggested: "It's almost time for dinner, let's go out and have a meal together?"

  Gu Qingcheng nodded: "You are the host, but you have to put up in the best inn."

  "No problem, I'll pay."

  Yang Mu Xiao followed Gu Qing Cheng out of the reception hall, while Liang Yu Fan went to the office to get his suit jacket. They stood in the corridor outside for a moment when suddenly, at the end of the corridor, a noisy commotion broke out, with faintly audible curses and insults directed at Liang Yu Fan and the board of directors.

  "The career I've worked so hard to build is going to be ruined by you few! You want to drive me out? Have I not suffered for all these years? Dammit, I said Liang Yufan is a white-eyed wolf! Gu Qingcheng is also a scoundrel! Now they're both blinded like pigs and driving me out of the board of directors. If it goes on like this, Fangda will be finished!"

  There were even more unpleasant words behind, and Yang Moxiao couldn't help but turn her face away when she heard them.

  Immediately following that, a number of men in suits and ties walked out of the conference hall, one of whom said: "Call security to come up here and take him away."

  Gu Qingcheng pulled Yang Fuxiao back and whispered in her ear: "This man is the chairman of Fang Da's board of directors."

  Security arrived quickly, but in these few minutes, that person was also constantly scolding and insulting, completely ruining the reputation of this high-end suit. Normally, who would have thought that a wealthy director who enters and exits high-end buildings every day would utter such indecent words, not even comparable to those of street thugs.

  Although his hair was still black and shiny, the wrinkles on his face showed that he had grown old.

  The man was carried out by two security guards, and as he passed by Gu Qingcheng's side, his eyes momentarily lost focus before suddenly snapping back to attention. "Gu Qingcheng, I'll screw your whole family!"

  As he spoke, he directly spat a mouthful of saliva on Gu Qingcheng's body.

  Immediately, two black-clad bodyguards rushed out and pinned the man to the ground, with their knees pressed against his body.

  Yang Fengxiao was shocked and quickly took out a tissue to help Gu Qingcheng wipe himself. Gu Qingcheng raised his hand, directly taking off the suit jacket he was wearing, holding it in one hand, squatting down, with no smile on his face, the light shooting out of his eyes made this man involuntarily shrink back, "Mr. Sun, haven't you heard that business is not afraid of deceit?"

  Grandma?

  Yang Fuxiao suddenly felt that this name was very familiar, but where he had heard it before, he suddenly remembered that half a month ago, at the grand full moon banquet, one of the main characters was Sun Lao's son, Sun Tian De.

  At that time, it was really a great honor, with career, son and glory all achieved.

  It's no wonder things have become so infuriating now.

  Sun Lao raised his head and wanted to spit at Gu Qingcheng again. Gu Qingcheng dodged and threw the suit jacket in his hand on the ground.

  The bodyguards and security guards escorted Sun Tiande into the elevator, until the elevator door closed, and the loud cursing voices could still be heard, filling the entire floor with such discordant sounds.

  Yang Mu Xiao originally still had some sympathy for this old Sun, but now there was none at all.

  This is what they call being unable to accept defeat.

  Winning can be beautiful, but losing also requires dignity. Now Sun Lao's loud and rude outburst, as well as his unscrupulous and indecent remarks, only serve to destroy the prestige he has accumulated over time, leaving behind a laughing stock for many people to gossip about, becoming a joke among his former subordinates.

  Yang Mu Xiao took a step back and suddenly realized that there was someone behind him. Dong Zhe had already been standing beside Gu Qing Cheng for who knows how long.

  It's really mysterious, those two black-clad bodyguards who suddenly rushed out earlier should be the people brought by Dong Zhe, and indeed they are. Someone like Gu Qingcheng, how could she not have anyone protecting her closely? It's impossible for a weak woman like her to handle it alone.

  She smiled and looked at Dong Zhe, nodding her head.

  Dong Zhe didn't even look at her.

  Yang Mu Xiao: "......"

  "I'm sorry, General Gu, you've been startled."

  The chairman of the board took a step forward and shook hands with Gu Qingcheng.

  "It's okay, but Fangda's security measures still need to be further strengthened, which is a loophole."

  Standing behind the chairman of the board is Director Zhang.

  Also, the eyes didn't look very good, and looking at the woman standing beside Gu Qingcheng, no matter how she looked, she felt a little familiar.

  Gu Qingcheng suddenly smiled and said: "Director Zhang."

  Director Zhang hastily nodded and bowed, saying: "Yes, General Manager Gu."

  Gu Qingcheng put his arm around Yang Mianxiao's waist and took a step forward with her. "Do you recognize this person?"

  Chairman Zhang got closer and saw clearly.

  It was the heartless woman who let Qian Duoduo go at that time!

  Director Zhang immediately wiped the sweat from his head, but after so many years of ups and downs in the business world, he immediately apologized to Gu Qingcheng: "Sorry, at that time I really didn't see clearly, and I didn't know this lady was acquainted with you, Director Gu."

  Since Director Zhang has said so, the administrative department manager who was standing behind also took a step forward. He was the main person in charge of Old Sun's banquet. Now that Old Sun has fallen, the previous banquet would not only be useless but might even be used as a knife by those currently in power.

  The person in charge looked at Gu Qingcheng and said, "I'm very sorry, Mr. Gu. I take full responsibility for this matter. At the time, it was indeed my dereliction of duty."

  Yang Mu Xiao stood beside Gu Qing Cheng, looking at the person who had been so arrogant in front of her that night, almost turning black into white, and now was so polite. She simply wanted to die for Gu Qing Cheng, it was really a beautiful reversal! It was really a release of anger, not to mention staying in the police station for one night, even being locked up for ten days or half a month would be worth it.

  Gu Qingcheng let out a "hmm" and took the tissue from Yang Fu's hand to wipe his hands. "You all made mistakes, why are you apologizing to me? I had something urgent at the banquet and left early, but I waited for my date in the hotel all night, yet she never showed up."

  Liang Yufan walked out of the office and came over through the corridor, just in time to hear Gu Qingcheng's words. In his heart, he cursed him as a jade-faced wolf. The full moon banquet was actually a Hongmen Banquet set by Gu Qingcheng. Although it was hosted by Fang Da, the ultimate beneficiary was Gu Qingcheng.

  It's really hard not to say that Gu Qingcheng's wrist is ruthless, and he never leaves any room for others to turn around.

  The two of them looked at Yang Bufang Xiao, clearly unsure what to call him.

  But from Gu Qingcheng's words, there was indeed an ambiguous feeling.

  Just as Yang Fuxiao was about to wave her hand and say it didn't matter, Gu Qingcheng had already wrapped his arm around her waist, looking very intimate. He leaned in, his chin on top of Yang Fuxiao's head, just touching her hair, and introduced: "This is Miss Yang, the lady I brought to the banquet that time, now she's the deputy manager of our hotel's guest room department."

  This sentence did not surprise Director Zhang, but it really surprised Yang Fuxiao. She stared blankly at Gu Qingcheng, already unsure how the two of them had apologized and what she had said to forgive them. It wasn't until Gu Qingcheng put his arm around her waist and they stepped into the elevator that she came back to herself.

  "Mr. Gu, were you serious just now?"

  Gu Qingcheng's palm tightened at Yang Fu's waist, sticking to her slender waistline. "How can the words spoken in front of so many people be a joke?"

  Yang Mu Xiao now feels it's not very real.

  Suddenly from an intern, jumped straight into a managerial position...

  It wasn't until I had dinner with Liang Yufan that this unbelievable feeling finally went away.

  Three people ordered ten dishes, and Gu Qingcheng seemed to be ruthless in wanting to slaughter Liang Yufan. Liang Yufan looked at the prices behind the dish names and shook his head: "You really want me to bleed heavily."

  Until he ordered the tenth dish, Liang Yufan finally snatched the menu from in front of Gu Qingcheng, "Can you finish eating so many dishes? Just get another bottle of wine and a bowl of soup."

  Yang Wudao didn't want to disturb the two eating originally, she always felt that she was a bit superfluous following beside them now.

  Gu Qingcheng said: "So many mountain delicacies and seafood are not eaten, you will regret it after going back."

  Liang Yufan burst out laughing: "Sit down and eat, have some more, at least you can earn back the principal for your family's Gu Zong."

  Yang Mu Xiao felt a bit uncomfortable in her stomach, so she didn't drink any wine. Listening to the banter between Liang Yu Fan and Gu Qing Cheng, occasionally bringing up past events, she suddenly asked: "Mr. Liang, I heard Mr. Gu say that you two are alumni?"

  "Oh?" Liang Yufan picked up the high-footed wine glass in front of him, "Is it a fellow alum or a love rival?"

  Love Rival...

  No wonder Gu Qingcheng said their relationship wasn't very good before...

  Yang Xiaobai's mind was just starting to get into the topic, wanting to continue digging deeper, when Gu Qingcheng interrupted him, and the topic returned to this economic and trade forum.

  From their conversation and combining with analysis in financial reports, Yang Fuxiao had figured out things that were not too clear.

  It turned out that Liang Yufan was actually a good chess piece planted inside Fangda all along, as long as Gu Qingcheng came over, and the two of them would work together in secret, but sometimes they were just pretending.

  Yang Mo Xiao swallowed a mouthful of swallow's nest, it was truly top-grade swallow's nest, the taste was really exceptionally good.

  "What about me?"

  "You're real, we're all fake."

  Yang Furong glanced at this and then looked at that, but still lowered her head to eat.

  This world is really too scary.

  Liang Yufan took a sip of wine, looking at Yang Furong, such a young girl who had just left school, was really naive and lovely. "Little girl, what you see and hear may not be true."

  Yang Mu Xiao raised her head and took a glance at Liang Yu Fan, suddenly remembering the words she had used to persuade him on the golf course...

  She felt really ashamed of herself, truly experiencing a word that she didn't quite understand even in middle school.

  Focused on thinking, she didn't notice, and a mouthful of sauce dripped down from the corner of her mouth. Yang Shuoxiao raised her hand to grab some tissues, but someone had already beaten her to it.

  Gu Qingcheng pulled out a tissue from one side, raised his hand and gently wiped Yang Fuxiao's lips, "You can't even eat properly, how am I supposed to take you out later?"

  Yang Mo Xiao slightly tilted her head to the side, and Gu Qing Cheng used a paper towel to wipe away the sauce from her lips while his fingertips grazed along her jawline before withdrawing his hand.

  "Thank you, General Gu."

  Yang Mu Xiao always felt that, without seeing each other for two weeks, Gu Qing Cheng seemed to have changed a lot?

  After dinner, Gu Qingcheng was going to the hospital to visit Liang Yufan's mother who was hospitalized. Liang Yufan had a driver, so Gu Qingcheng hitched a ride and let Yang Fuxiao drive his car back to the hotel.

  Yang Fu Xiao made an OK gesture with her hand, "No problem!"

  Watching Yang Fuxiao drive away, Liang Yufan then let the driver take him to the hospital.

  "What did you plan to do?"

  Gu Qingcheng withdrew his gaze, a silver lighter spinning between his fingers: "No plans."

  "So you're keeping her by your side now," Liang Yufan paused, "is it true or false?"

  Gu Qingcheng didn't respond at first. It wasn't until a long time had passed, and even Liang Yufan had given up hope of getting an answer from Gu Qingcheng, that he finally heard a voice.

  "I don't know either."

  ………………

  Yang Fuxiao turned on the navigation system in the car and grasped the steering wheel with both hands, not daring to take his eyes off the road for a second.

  After passing by a crossroads ahead, the traffic light in front was red. After taking a glance at the countdown of the traffic lights, she realized that it would take quite some time to turn green, so she turned off the engine and waited.

  She rolled down the car window, outside the window, red lanterns and green neon lights were flashing, on the roadside, a couple was walking hand in hand, such a scene deeply pierced into Yang Fuxiao's eyes, also pierced into her heart.

  At that time, Xu Muhuang also liked to hold her hand and stroll along the road. Even when Yang Fuxiao suddenly had a strange idea and wanted to walk on the extremely narrow steps of the roadside curb, he let her do so, only holding her hand with a bit more force. One time, pretending to scare Xu Muhuang, she quickly pounced over like a cheetah and hugged Yang Fuxiao in her arms.

  Still remember the most leisurely time in college.

  In the library, she likes to find her favorite books in the literature section and then take them to the more deserted science and engineering section on the upper floor to read. She even spread all her books out on a desk in a philosophy specialty area and buried her head deep into them.

  Still remember that sunny spring afternoon, all the ambiguous factors were sprouting and fermenting at that time, and then swelling into pink bubbles.

  Yang Mu Xiao was bent over his desk, wearing a pair of oversized black-framed glasses, when he suddenly felt a nudge on the side of his leg.

  She furrowed her brow and looked up to see Xu Muhuang standing beside her.

  "How did you get here?"

  "Reading."

  Yang Mu Xiao looked back and saw that the title of the book was "Detailed Explanation of Chemical Small Molecule Theory".

  “……”

  Xu Muhuang didn't wear camouflage today, and was dressed relatively casually. He wore a pair of black sports pants with a plaid shirt and a black turtleneck sweater, looking particularly spirited. His complexion also didn't look as dark as it did when he was in the army.

  Xu Muhuang also noticed Yang Fuxiao looking at him, raised his wrist and took off her glasses from the bridge of her nose. Yang Fuxiao let out a cry, unable to catch his escaping hand, the black-framed glasses were now perched on her own nose, still pretending to be a teacher, taking the pen from Yang Fuxiao's hand and tapping her head twice.

  "Cough cough, Yang, hurry up and read your book."

  "You won't let me go find you, but you come looking for me out of the blue. Only officials are allowed to start fires, while ordinary people aren't even allowed to light lamps."

  Xu Muhuang didn't make a sound, while keeping his head down to read, he also stretched out his hand to press down Yang Fuxiao's head.

  However, as soon as Yang Muxiao entered the state and started reading, Xu Murong put down the book, occasionally touching her hair and poking at her cheek. Yang Muxiao puffed out his cheeks and glared fiercely at Xu Murong.

  "What on earth do you want to do?!"

  Xu Muhuang's mouth curled up in a sly smile as he beckoned to Yang Shuo and pulled him closer: "Come, give your lord a kiss."

  Drip... Drip... Drip...

  The wailing of the whistle in the distance brought Yang Zhaosheng's thoughts back.

  She suddenly came to her senses, saw the green light in front of her flashing, and hurriedly wanted to step on the accelerator, while calculating the time, otherwise she would have to wait for the red light again...

  Just then, a traffic police officer walked over and knocked on the window, "Your driver's license."

  ………………

  Gu Qingcheng came to the hospital to visit Liang Yufan's mother, who was hospitalized for a minor surgery. Before coming, Gu Qingcheng bought many things.

  "Liāng's mother raised her head: 'What's with bringing so many things? I don't lack anything here, just take them away when you leave.'"

  In the ward, Mrs. Liang was also there, waiting for Liang Yufan and Gu Qingcheng to arrive, then got up and went to the tea room to make tea.

  After saying a few words with Liang's mother, Gu Qingcheng suddenly received a call from the police. He furrowed his brow and got up to answer the phone in the corridor.

  "Excuse me, are you Mr. Gu?"

  Gu Qingcheng raised an eyebrow, "Yes."

  "Yang Wei Xiao was driving illegally and is now being detained at the police station. She said you are the car owner, please come over to settle the fine."

  Liang Yufan followed out of the ward, Gu Qingcheng said: "Yang Moxiao was detained at the police station, I'll go there."

  "How did he just walk away fine and then go back into the police station?"

  In Shanghai, Liang Yufan has a wide network of connections. After asking which police station he was in, he made two phone calls and directly asked for his release.

  Gu Qingcheng interrupted Liang Yufan and said, "I'll go myself."

  After Gu Qingcheng and Liang's mother left, Liang Yufan and Madam Liang sent him to the hospital parking lot. Watching the car leave, Madam Liang sighed, "This person Gu Qingcheng gives people a feeling that is hard to grasp. What's going on with that little girl? If it were me, knowing that Gu Qingcheng is a whirlpool, I would never approach him again. It might really be a case of no bones left."

  Gu Qingcheng arrived at the police station half an hour later.

  Officer Wang in the police station had already received Liang Yufan's phone call and said to Gu Qingcheng, "You can take Miss Yang away directly."

  "What about him?"

  One of the police officers led Gu Qingcheng to a room at the front and opened the door from the outside.

  Gu Qingcheng saw at first glance, sitting on the long bench in front, Yang Moxiao sat stupidly, black hair falling down, covering her face, and even when the door creaked open from outside, she didn't know.

  She was lost in thought and didn't even notice when Gu Qingcheng walked over, until a pair of leather shoes appeared in her line of sight, followed by someone gently ruffling her hair.

  Snapping back from a blank mind, his vision was somewhat blurry. It wasn't until he got used to the dazzling light above his head that he could see clearly the person standing in front of him.

  "Gu Qingcheng."

  This should be Yang Mochen's first time transitioning between this dazed and clear state, without calling Gu Qingcheng Xu Muhuang.

  Yang Mu Xiao had a driver's license, so even if he was taken to the police station, he would just wait for Gu Qing Cheng, the car owner, to come and take his license to deduct points, then pay the fine, and he could leave.

  "My driver's license is in the green pocket of that backpack, with my ID card stuffed outside. It was sent over by someone else, I don't know if there's enough money left to deduct... it's been deducted once before..."

  Gu Qingcheng placed his palm on Yang Fuxiao's head and rubbed it, then pulled over a chair and sat down in front of her.

  "You can even drive a car to the police station, are you stupid or what?"

  “？”

  Yang Mu Xiao felt that Gu Qing Cheng was not like himself at this time, it was a bit strange, and he wondered if he wanted to use some kind of electric method to force her into submission.

  "Mr. Gu, I was wrong."

  Gu Qingcheng directly pulled her out of the police station. The car was temporarily detained at the police station, and he called Dong Zhe to come and open it.

  At the police station entrance, while waiting for Dong Zhe to arrive, Gu Qingcheng grasped Yang Fuxiao's hand and stroked the lines on her palm with his fingertips. This subtle feeling made Yang Fuxiao feel a little uneasy in her heart, so she turned around to size up Gu Qingcheng.

  "Admire."

  Gu Qingcheng tilted his head and looked at Yang Fuxiao with a questioning gaze, "Hm?"

  This feeling is really wonderful.

  She first called Gu Qingcheng "Mu Hang" in a sober state, and when she heard this answer with her own ears, she didn't know what to say.

  Is Gu Qingcheng pitying her?

  She really wanted to strip off Gu Qingcheng's pants and take a look at the burn on his buttocks.

  Yang Mu Xiao turned his head to look at the car shadows flying quickly in front of Gu Qing Cheng, swaying and casting on his face, making the originally clear edges of his face slightly softened, looking gentle and soft under the night light.

  "Then..."

  Yang Fu Xiao moved her lips, just wanting to speak, but the distant police siren whizzed by, interrupting the words on her lips. Wanting to open her mouth again, she forgot what she wanted to say.

  She turned her head and just saw the figure of a red-clothed, black-haired woman jumping down from the police car, running towards the road as soon as she jumped down. A policeman jumped down from the police car behind her, this time directly handcuffing her hands, and directly pushed the little girl's forehead.

  "Still running? Are you still running or not? You're not done yet!"

  Yang Fuxiao looked over in the direction of the sound and was startled at a glance.

  This makeup is a bit too bold, isn't it?

  Her face was so pale that it was hard to tell what her natural skin tone was, white like Sadako's, with blood-red lips and jet-black eye shadow.

  "It's you!"

  The woman cried out in surprise as she passed by Yang Fu Xiao's side.

  At this point, Yang Fuxiao also figured out who this woman was.

  It was on the night of the banquet that he swindled her out of a lot of money.

  It's not just because of having a lot of money, there are many factors involved.

  "Qian Duoduo" suddenly grabbed Yang Fuxiao's arm: "Help me."

  She seemed to be making her expression look real, with a crying face, the whole face looked like a bitter melon, one mouth, a bloody big mouth with white teeth.

  The policeman behind took a step forward and asked: "Do you know each other?"

  "Money Money" immediately turned his head, nodding like a garlic press: "This is my own sister! Want to verify the blood relationship? I know you didn't take a liking to me at first sight."

  The young policeman chuckled twice, "Even if it were your sister, even if it were your mother, it wouldn't be possible."

  "How dare you speak like that!"

  "Qian Duoduo" took a step forward, directly came over to pull Gu Qingcheng, and simply used the handcuffs' chain to lock Gu Qingcheng's arm, "Gu Qingcheng, brother! You promised my mom, you can't ignore me now!"

  Gu Qingcheng raised his eyes and looked at "Qian Duoduo" coldly: "Now you're calling me mom, but before that, weren't you always calling me fox spirit?"

  "Qian Duoduo's" face turned red with embarrassment, he rolled his eyes, but his tone softened, "That was when I was young and foolish, please don't hold it against me."

  Gu Qingcheng also smiled, "I don't mind, but this time it's your dad who didn't let me take care of you. He said you're too wild and should be locked up in the police station for three days and three nights. If not, you might as well be detained for half a month to tame your temper. You don't need to go back to Macau either."

  "Gu Qingcheng! You can't be so heartless!"

  "The cries of 'Qian Duoduo' were no longer useful, two police officers directly carried her into the police station, closed the door and isolated all the shouting voices behind it."

  A police officer knew that Gu Qingcheng had some relationship with Wang's team, so he walked over and roughly told him about the "Qian Duoduo" incident.

  "On the subway, touched someone's phone, directly put it in pocket and left as if nothing happened, then followed her to her residence, opened the door with a ghostly expression."

  Yang Fu Xiao listened and couldn't help but be shocked.

  No, she was at that banquet hall initially and heard "Qian Duoduo" scolding that stingy and unscrupulous fatty, and thought she should be a girl with aspirations, although poor, but wouldn't do such sneaky things.

  "Am I wrong?"

  The police officer waved his hand: "No, the surveillance route inside the subway station was adjusted at that time. The mobile phone found in her residence has been returned to the owner. The owner's phone number is stored and can be used as evidence."

  The police had roughly finished explaining these things, and Lao Yang didn't have any extra questions to ask either, so he turned around and went in.

  Yang Mu Xiao watched the police officer's back disappear into the police station, gazing at the lush tree shadows inside, swaying vaguely, when he suddenly turned around: "You still say you don't know Qian Duo Duo! Finally got to expose you!"

  Gu Qingcheng didn't know when he had let go of Yang Fuxiao's hand, with both hands in his pockets, looking at Yang Fuxiao, "I really don't know Qian Duoduo."

  Yang Furong was stunned for a moment before he came to his senses.

  Got it.

  Gu Qingcheng is playing word games with her.

  Because the pseudonym of that woman just now was called Qian Duoduo, but her real name is not.

  Yang Mu Xiao felt a bit indignant and turned around to leave, but was pulled back by Gu Qing Cheng from behind, "Where are you going?"

  "Let's head back to the hotel!"

  Gu Qingcheng chuckled and drove up front, where Dong Zhe had also arrived.

  However, when Dong Zhe got out of the car he was driving, Gu Qingcheng threw him the car key that the police had just handed over and narrowed his eyes. "I asked you to drive, how can you still be driving now?"

  Dong Zhe: "......"

  Yang brushed off the dawn and burst out laughing, immediately using Gu Qingcheng as a utility pole to support himself, laughing so hard that his branches were shaking wildly.

  Before leaving, Yang Wuxiao looked back at the police station and said, "You really won't go get her out?"

  From the conversation between Gu Qingcheng and "Qian Duoduo" just now, she could also hear that the two people should be in a very familiar relationship, at least Gu Qingcheng knew "Qian Duoduo"'s parents.

  Gu Qingcheng leaned back in his seat with his eyes closed, and didn't even want to respond to Yang Fu's words.

  Yang Mu Xiao looked at Gu Qing Cheng's tired eyes and shut her mouth.

  ………………

  Gu Qingcheng's purpose for this trip to Shanghai is undoubtedly Fangda. Currently, Fangda is undergoing a major reshuffle, and Liang Yufan has taken control of actual power from his previously nominal position, also securing 8% of the company's internal shares.

  Gu Qingcheng, on the other hand, absorbed shares when Fangda's stock price was low and then threw it high twice, eventually making a profit of thirty times. Now he has also become one of the major shareholders who can be listed as a director of Fangda, and the chairman of the board is also his person.

  This situation should also be considered a win-win.

  So, before Gu Qingcheng leaves, a banquet must be held.

  Recently, there have been too many private banquets in the business circle. Liang Yufan changed the banquet to a small gathering for each department, reimbursed by the company.

  After a major reshuffle within the company, showing some small favors is the most effective way to win people's hearts.

  Fang Shu, who went to City C to handle some matters, has also returned. He helped Gu Qingcheng book a flight for Wednesday, which is the day after tomorrow.

  When Fang Shu heard that Yang Mianxiao had entered the police station again, he just shook his head when looking at Yang Mianxiao.

  Arrived in Shanghai for a month, had a high fever, received an IV drip, sprained ankle, and also went to the police station.

  Yang Mu thought this month was quite wonderful.

  There's still a day and a half left, and Yang Xiaodong will follow Gu Qingcheng back to C City, but Shen San Gongzi, who called the first two days, said he wanted to meet her in Shanghai.

  Is it still in time?

  Because she had promised Tina at the hotel, Tina was going to host an event and asked Yang Fu Xiao to attend. Since Yang Fu Xiao's foot injury had also recovered, she should fulfill her previous promise to Tina.

  Before leaving, Yang Fu Xiao changed into a long skirt brought by Gu Qing Cheng, Bohemian style, with large sunflower fields printed on the hem, and emerald green suspenders, which made Yang Fu Xiao look silly for a moment.

  "You want me to wear this?"

  The key is that the current weather has already transitioned from summer to autumn, so such a radiant outfit is only suitable for sunny beaches and seas, suitable for Hawaii or the Maldives, but absolutely not suitable for a private gathering at a bar.

  "Don't worry, wearing this there is absolutely not considered strange or out of place."

  What Gu Qingcheng said is really true.

  Because Tina's private party was actually a masquerade ball, no, a costume ball.

  And this scene is not in a bar, but in a welfare institution in the suburbs.

  Yang Fuxiao was wearing a floral wreath on his head, which was immediately removed and replaced with a skull mask as soon as he entered. Behind him, Gu Qingcheng had his suit jacket stripped off and instead wore a red Superman cape, which Yang Fuxiao found somewhat comical.

  Tina was good at this kind of weirdness, she herself wore a set of old witch's clothes, holding a broom in her hand, and when she arrived in front of Yang Xiao, she suddenly changed into a magic trick, the smoke bomb in her hand went "bang" and exploded, the smoke dispersed, leaving a person standing in the smoke, but it was no longer an old witch, but Harry Potter wearing glasses.

  A group of kids were also jumping around and fooling around, Yang Xiao laughed so hard she was almost out of breath. Meanwhile, Gu Qingcheng gazed indifferently at the group of kids in front of him who were playing with toy trains, turned his head to Yang Xiao and said: "Your sense of humor is really low."

  Yang Mo Xiao smiled and wiped her eye corners: "Ming Ming is really funny, look at Tina laughing so hard she's almost crying out of breath, your sense of humor is quite weird."

  A little kid fell down beside Yang Fu Xiao, and Yang Fu Xiao immediately bent over to help the child up and patted the dust off her legs.

  "Thank you, sister."

  Yang Mu Xiao watched as the little boy with a magic hat ran out holding his toy star, her eyes filled with an unexpected tenderness.

  Gu Qingcheng turned around and asked: "You like kids very much?"

  "It's not that, I just want a home, not big, but the people who should be there, are there," Yang Fu Xiao smiled faintly, and suddenly realized she was talking to Gu Qing Cheng, turned her head, only to find Gu Qing Cheng staring at her deeply.

  She casually waved her hand, wanting to break the awkward atmosphere. "Haha, Mr. Gu, your parents are in good health and you have a happy family, so you shouldn't understand my feelings."

  Gu Qingcheng lowered his head, pulled out a cigarette from his pocket and put it to his lips, tossing the lighter to Yang Moxiao.

  Yang Buruoxiao didn't react in time and the thing that Gu Qingcheng threw to her, she hurriedly stretched out her hand to catch it, but almost dropped the lighter on the ground.

  There was no need for Gu Qingcheng to say it, Yang Fuxiao also understood that this was Gu Qingcheng letting her light a cigarette.

  She flicked on her lighter, shielding the flame with one hand as she leaned in towards Gu Qingcheng.

  In the courtyard, the tree shadows are dense, not far away, the children's laughter is intertwined, a cluster of orange flames wrapped in light blue, close to Gu Qingcheng's lips.

  At the moment when the flame ignited the cigarette butt, Yang Fuxiao extinguished the lighter in his hand.

  Gu Qingcheng took a step back, the sparks on the cigarette butt in his hand flickering.

  Yang used to hate seeing those little rascals smoking on the road when he was in school, dyeing their hair in all sorts of colors thinking they were so cool and handsome, but actually just a piece of crap.

  Now looking at Gu Qingcheng smoking, she thinks it looks great, just like Xu Mochen.

  But this good-looking person's next sentence completely disillusioned Yang Fu Xiao.

  "Are your parents not alive now?"

  Yang Furong was stunned for a moment, thinking that things were not going well. She had just said something and now another secret had been revealed!

  She had been keeping it a secret from outsiders all along that she was just an adopted daughter!

  "Yes, yes, I didn't say no," Yang Fu Xiao smiled stiffly, "I have a father and mother, and I also have an older sister. You said it was my brother-in-law."

  Now Yang Susu can only be used as a shield, anyway, Gu Qingcheng had been sending things to Yang Susu and taking her out shopping before, Yang Dongliang and Song Tianjiao have almost taken Gu Qingcheng as their son-in-law, now calling him brother-in-law is nothing.

  Although, I feel a bit uncomfortable in my heart.

  Gu Qingcheng moved the cigarette butt away, and suddenly approached Yang Mo Xiao. Warm breath came abruptly, carrying a faint scent of tobacco, instantly wrapping around Yang Mo Xiao, thread by thread.

  "Oh, what's with that little sister-in-law always wanting to take off her brother-in-law's pants?"

  Yang was stunned all of a sudden.

  Gu Qingcheng remembered what happened that night!
