Gu Yan straightened his back, looked cold, and watched Tongtong's figure closely.
Tongtong walked into the cake shop, bought a cake, and came out on short legs, the whole process was the same!
Gu Yan breathed a sigh of relief, but then frowned again. From this point of view, yesterday was his problem. It won't have any effect on other monsters, it will only affect him!
He tapped the table lightly with his index finger, showing a thoughtful expression.
Tongtong came back with the cake in a while, and handed the cake to Gu Yan in a fawning manner.
"For you." Gu Yan said.
"..." She doesn't like eating cakes at all, she likes eating people! Your lord knows it clearly, it's too bad!
But she didn't dare not to eat, so she sat obediently and ate the cake.
While eating, he blinked his eyes and secretly glanced at Gu Yan, how cute his little face was.
By the time the two of them made a big circle and went back, it was almost time for dinner.
Gu Yan's phone rang just now.
He laughed as soon as he saw the call. He didn't expect that Qin Yao's efficiency was quite high, and it was not in vain for him to act in such a scene.
"Hello." Gu Yan answered the phone.
"It's me." Qin Yao's steady voice came from the phone, "There is news about the person you are looking for."
"Okay, I'm coming here now, where are you?" Gu Yan said.
Qin Yao quickly reported an address, and then said, "No hurry, I'll wait for you."
Gu Yan hung up the phone and said to Xu Ming: "I'm going out tonight, you can take Tongtong out for dinner."
Xu Ming nodded.
Xiao Hu just came over and asked, "Mr. Gu, where are you going? I'll see you off."
Gu Yan nodded, this is not something that needs to be avoided.
Xiao Hu was very happy that Gu Yan was willing to let him take him off, so he happily went out to call the driver. Gu Yan disappeared overnight yesterday, but he was terrified. He almost had to report to Mr. Fu. It's better to keep up today!
Having Xiao Hu, who is a master of the capital, really saved Gu Yan a lot of trouble. He reported the address to Xiao Hu, and Xiao Hu quickly sent him there.
This is a very quiet clubhouse, with a quiet and elegant environment, strict access control, and no one without a membership card can enter. Qin Yao had already arranged for someone to wait at the door, and respectfully welcomed Gu Yan in.
When Gu Yan pushed the door and entered, Qin Yao just put down the celadon teacup in his hand.
A smile appeared on his cold face, "You are here."
Gu Yan nodded: "Where are people?"
"Are you hungry? Do you want to eat first?" Qin Yao asked in a gentle tone.
Gu Yan gave Qin Yao a meaningful look. He prefers to get straight to the point and has no habit of connecting with human beings. But if the opponent is Qin Yao... then it is not impossible to waste a little time playing, it depends on who loses faster.
"Okay." Gu Yan smiled, his black eyes were as bright as gemstones, and he was full of energy, "It stands to reason that I should invite you to dinner, thank you for your generous help yesterday. It happened that you invited me first, and I will pay for it later how?"
Qin Yao smiled and said yes.
He didn't understand why he wanted to get along with Gu Yan, and even asked to have a meal together... But no one can't afford a meal, and he doesn't get entangled in such trivial matters.
"The chef here is the descendant of Chen Dynasty's imperial chef. There are some special dishes, which are very good. You can try them." Qin Yao directly ordered a few dishes, which looked very familiar, and he is a regular customer here.
It is obvious that he is used to making decisions and has no habit of taking care of others, but at least he knows how to hand the menu to Gu Yan after ordering, and asks politely: "See if there is anything else you want to eat?"
Gu Yan didn't even look at it, and smiled: "Just order it."
Qin Yao is not reluctant. The waiter next to him took the menu and went out.
Gu Yan's gaze fell on Qin Yao's handsome face, and he had basically figured out Qin Yao's character. This kind of human cultivator is the most cold and indifferent, and it is really difficult to deal with, but if he is moved, it will be different... Even if he is really high on the altar, he will pull him down! What's more... After all, he is just a human being
And a man with weaknesses.
Gu Yan pursed his lips slightly, his sharp phoenix eyes gave Qin Yao a thank you glance, his demeanor was wanton and coquettish, but his voice was filled with sincere emotion and admiration, "Speaking of which, your friend is quite powerful, such a big capital city, unexpectedly I can also find Zhu Huanwei. I didn't have much hope at first."
"It's nothing." Qin Yao smiled lightly.
He didn't have the habit of pretending to be aggressive, so he really didn't think it was a big deal. Who knows that his calm words are better than any deliberate pretense.
Gu Yan stared at Qin Yao, and suddenly said: "I didn't expect you to be able to get along well in the capital, so if I have any difficulties in the future, can I find you?" He curled the corners of his mouth, and his tone was as friendly and natural as an old friend.
Qin Yao froze for a moment, then smiled, "Okay."
In the past, there were always many people trying to curry favor with him, trying to get a little charity and benefits from him. He was very annoyed, but Gu Yan made such a straightforward request today... He felt happy instead.
Because he originally wanted to help him.
There is such a big gap between those who are willing and those who are unwilling.
The two didn't chat a few words, and the food came up.
As expected, he is worthy of being the successor of the royal chef, with a few simple dishes, but quite distinctive and elegant, and the taste is also very delicate.
Although Gu Yan thinks that there is nothing more delicious and attractive than human flesh and blood, this does not prevent him from pretending to enjoy it.
In fact, Qin Yao is really easy to think about. He never hides what he likes and cares about, and always expresses what he doesn't like and dislikes. He doesn't even bother to hide. For example... hatred for monsters, and affection for him.
After the meal, Qin Yao didn't hesitate, and asked Zhu Huanwei to be brought here directly.
Zhu Huanwei's expression was sluggish, his hair was messed up, and he looked at Qin Yao with deep fear. Qin Yao glanced past Zhu Huanwei without stopping. In his eyes, this was just an ant. To some extent, he and Gu Yan are actually more similar.
Qin Yao smiled gently at Gu Yan, "If you have anything to ask, just ask directly, he dare not say nothing."
"Yes, yes, Young Master Gu, if you have anything you want to ask, just ask!" Zhu Huanwei had a humble expression on his face, completely gone from the arrogance of the past. Before coming here, he had already been threatened and cleaned up.
Gu Yan is very satisfied with Zhu Huanwei's obedience, he is not good at showing his ability in front of Qin Yao, so it is best for others to do these things for him.
"What's wrong with you? Why did you call me Young Master Gu?" Gu Yan pretended to be very surprised, because the original owner had never revealed his identity to Zhu Huanwei, and he didn't know that Zhu Huanwei was behind everything.
Zhu Huanwei's face was ashen, and he forced a smile, "This... is exactly what I want to confess to you." He paused, then secretly raised his eyes to look at Qin Yao.
Qin Yao looked at him expressionlessly, his eyes indifferent.
Zhu Huanwei didn't have any chances anymore, he didn't expect Gu Yan to be able to get such a strong backing. Fu Zhechuan alone is enough, after all, no matter how rich he is, he is just a businessman, but Qin Yao... what a terrifying existence. What else is there to hesitate about? Now I just hope to make up for it.
He looked at Gu Yan cautiously, and said, "Actually, I have always known your identity, and Sun Jie was also arranged by me."
Gu Yanhuo stood up, looked at him with angry eyes, gritted his teeth and said, "You arranged Sun Jie?!"
Zhu Huanwei shrank his neck, but thinking that stretching his head and shrinking his head would be a knife, he simply said: "Not only was I arranged for Sun Jie, but the matter of you signing with my company was also planned from the beginning. Arrange this behind the scenes. It's all about your second brother Gu Yanxin, he gave me a lot of money to monitor and manipulate your every move in Haiyun City, and let me find a suitable opportunity to get rid of you, it's best not to cause anyone's attention Doubt. So everything you encountered was not accidental."
Gu Yan staggered and took a step back, his face pale, "My second brother?"
Zhu Huanwei looked affirmative, "Yes, he was the one who kept in touch with me. As for whether your elder brother Gu Yande was involved, I don't know."
"How is this possible! Second brother has always loved me so much, and he treats me very well." Gu Yan's voice was hoarse, and his expression still refused to believe.
"There is nothing impossible, you are just... um, an illegitimate child." Zhu Huanwei was careful when he said this word, lest he offend Gu Yan, but Gu Yan seemed to be still immersed in grief and disbelief, and didn't notice it at all. He continued: "However, Mr. Gu loves you the most, and as far as Gu Yanxin knows, Mr. Gu plans to transfer the shares of Gu's chain gold stores to you after his 70th birthday. Facing such interests Well, it's normal for Gu Yanxin to be unable to sit still. As long as you die, Mr. Gu can only leave things to his brothers."
He sighed in his heart, everyone said that Gu Sanshao was an idiot, and his words were indeed true, so he still believed that those two elder brothers were sincere to him.
If it weren't for the fate, I don't know how many times I have died.
Zhu Huanwei said it so clearly, Gu Yan felt that even if the original owner was a fool, he should understand.
His face was ashen, and he looked like he was betrayed by his most beloved brother and put to death. But a quick thought came to his mind. Gu's chain gold store is indeed a big cake. He hadn't paid much attention to the Gu family's affairs before, and he didn't know that Gu's father would have such a plan, so he didn't make the idea to this point. above. Now, after carefully sifting through my mind, I have an idea. Things that need to be prepared with painstaking effort, but unexpectedly, they will suddenly fall over like a pie. If he doesn't continue, he will not be a monster. .
He wants to order a chain gold store with sufficient distribution channels and gold reserves!
Gu Yan looked at Zhu Huanwei with lifeless eyes, and said dumbly, "Is there any evidence for what you said?" It seemed that he was still unwilling to admit the facts.
"Yes, in order to protect myself, I have been secretly recording the conversation between me and Gu Yanxin, and I can leave these to you!" Zhu Huanwei said very bachelor.
Gu Yan seemed finally unable to deceive himself anymore, his lips trembled, and he didn't speak again for a long while.
There was a flash of pity in Qin Yao's eyes, he winked, Zhu Huanwei was taken down, and only he and Gu Yan were left in the room. He hesitated for a moment, walked over, and said softly: "Don't be too sad..."
This comfort seemed pale and powerless, but apart from that, he didn't know what else he could say.
If possible, he would rather that Gu Yan would never know these cruel truths, but sometimes, concealing them would only cause him more harm.
Gu Yan turned his head slowly, his pitch-black eyes were like a pool of stagnant water, and the usual wanton and flying spirit disappeared. He murmured: "I don't believe it..."
It's not that I can't believe it, but I don't want to believe it.
Underneath the self-deceiving and stubborn face, there is a fragility as if a strong shell has been broken and cruelly stripped away. People can't help but want to hug him and take care of him like a treasure...
Qin Yao suffocated, and the pain in his heart spread...
He slowly raised his hand, paused for a moment... Finally, he firmly and slowly pulled Gu Yan into his arms. Pressing his thin and strong shoulders with the palm of his hand, he felt the slight trembling of the person in his arms.
"Don't be sad, you... and me."
