Gu Yan's body trembled invisibly, as if he was suppressing some kind of grief in his heart.
He buried his head in Qin Yao's chest, the hot and humid liquid permeated Qin Yao's thin shirt, dripping on him like boiling water. Qin Yao's body stiffened for a while, holding Gu Yan's hands like a bewildered child.
After a while, Gu Yan raised his head, revealing reddish eye sockets, bloodless lips, and his voice was hoarse.
"Thank you, I'm better."
Qin Yao felt even more distressed when he saw this, but he pretended not to care, and smiled, "Don't force it, just cry when you are sad, is it possible that you are afraid that I will laugh at you?"
Gu Yan twitched the corners of his mouth, but did not speak.
Qin Yao lowered his voice, with a magical power that made people involuntarily believe, "Don't worry, the law will give you justice in this matter. As the mastermind behind the scenes, Gu Yanxin will definitely pay the price for his actions."
It's also hard for Qin Yao, who obviously doesn't take the Gu family seriously, but still wants to argue with Gu Yan about the law, just to make the person in front of him feel at ease.
"No..." Gu Yan shook his head, looked at Qin Yao with wet eyes, and said slowly, "Don't embarrass him."
Qin Yao suddenly became a little angry. Could it be that Gu Yan still cared about the brotherhood? The kind of person who wants to kill him is not worthy of forgiveness at all. He pursed his lips, and his voice was a little cold: "But if you let him go, he may not be willing to let you go."
"Since I already know, I won't give him another chance to hurt me." Gu Yan's eyes were filled with pain, and after a while, he sighed, "And... father is old, so I'm afraid he can't be stimulated like this."
Qin Yao understood, it wasn't because he didn't want to touch Gu Yanxin, but because he didn't want to embarrass Gu Zonghan. This matter is not difficult to solve, "I understand, since you don't want this matter to become too rigid, then don't move him temporarily, but it is still necessary to give him some warnings." He said it casually, this An extremely complicated matter is as simple as what to eat tomorrow morning in his mouth.
The giant Gu family in the eyes of ordinary people is nothing in his eyes.
Gu Yan stared at Qin Yao, and finally nodded, his voice was lonely, but with the complexity of a drowning person grabbing a life-saving straw, "You do things, I don't worry."
Gu Yan doesn't seem to be in a high mood, but he is very proud in his heart. It seems that it is really useful to win over Qin Yao.
As a powerful human cultivator, Qin Yao must have extraordinary energy in human society. Many things that he is difficult to do, or things that are difficult for him to do, are easy for Qin Yao.
This is not to say that Qin Yao must be much stronger than him, but that his identities are different after all.
At present, he still needs to hide his clumsiness, so as not to show his ability in human society openly, otherwise it will easily cause disaster when he is fledgling, but Qin Yao is different, his power is deeply rooted, no matter what he does, it is logical.
"It's time for me to go back." Gu Yan paused, his expression gradually regained his composure, although he looked a little pale, but he couldn't detect anything strange without looking carefully.
"Do you need me to see you off?" Qin Yao looked at Gu Yan uneasy.
Gu Yan smiled, and his expression had recovered a bit of his usual wantonness, "Don't worry about me, I'm not that fragile."
Qin Yao looked at him.
Gu Yan walked to the door, turned his head and took a deep look at Qin Yao, then turned and left.
…
Gu Yan returned to the car with a calm expression, unable to see anything.
According to his usual character, those ants who dare to plot against him have always been crushed to death. It's not that he can't deal with Gu Yanxin, but since Qin Yao is willing to do it for him, he is also happy to stand by and watch, and it will be easier than doing it himself. good.
The reason why he told Qin Yao not to act too much, of course, was not because he really cared about the relationship between father and son and brother, but because he didn't want to change the original things because of his ruthless actions.
Gu Zonghan originally planned to give him the shares of the gold store, and he still loves him very much, but no matter how much he loves him, if he personally sends his brother to prison, he will inevitably have grudges and dissatisfaction with him. As an old man, he always feels that everything is going well at home, and he doesn't like to watch such scandals of brothers fighting among themselves. So, as a caring and filial son, he must know how to understand the general situation and take into account the overall situation. Anyway, Gu Yanxin is no longer something to be afraid of.
Although human beings don't have much morality to speak of, they are hypocritical and shameless, but on the surface they always like to criticize others from the moral level. With such a good hand, of course he must always stand at the highest point of morality.
Besides... it doesn't hurt to be 'protected' once in a while as a hands-off shopkeeper.
Taking advantage of Qin Yao, he has no psychological burden at all.
Gu Yan stroked the mobile phone in his hand, so it was necessary to mix in the excitement of Gu Zonghan's birthday party.
As soon as he returned to the hotel, he called Bai Ya.
"Hello."
Bai Ya recognized Gu Yan's voice immediately, and was very excited, "Is it Yan Yan? I'm mother!"
"I know." Gu Yan said.
"I'm sorry, I shouldn't have dragged you out last time. Don't be angry, okay? Mom just wants to spend more time with you..." Bai Ya's voice was choked and cautious.
"I don't blame you."
"Ah... oh, that's good, that's good..."
"I'm calling because I have something to ask you."
"What's up?"
"Where is Gu Zonghan's birthday banquet held?"
"Are you coming?" Bai Ya suddenly became pleasantly surprised.
"..." Gu Yan remained silent.
Bai Ya quickly reported the name of a hotel, "It's 12 noon tomorrow, mom will pick you up then!"
"No, I'll go there by myself." Gu Yan hung up the phone without waiting for Bai Ya's reply.
Now that he has decided to participate, it is still very important to prepare a gift, otherwise how can he show that he is a filial and caring 'son'
But he neither understood nor wanted to worry about presents. At this time, the role of a human assistant was revealed, and Gu Yan called Xu Ming.
"Go and prepare a gift for me." Gu Yan said.
"Who is it for?" Xu Ming asked.
"The more expensive the better for a seventy-year-old man, you don't have to save money for me." Gu Yan thought for a while and said. Thinking about it, Gu Zonghan didn't lack anything. The original owner, as an idiot son, didn't know what to pay attention to. Money represents the heart, and the more money you spend, the more heart you will naturally express.
Xu Ming nodded, expressing his understanding.
…
Although the Gu family is not considered one of the top wealthy families in Beijing, it is still a big family that should not be underestimated. The Gu family group has many industries, including real estate, financial Internet, and a history of more than 100 years. The famous chain gold store has a good reputation all over the country. If it weren't for the fact that the children of the family had never been in official positions, their status might have been improved a bit.
But no matter how much money is in Gu Yan's eyes, the reason why he decided to get involved is because of the gold shop. After the magic circle is built, a large amount of gold liquid is needed to fill the magic circle, but gold is used as a national reserve, and it is okay to buy a small amount, but too much will inevitably attract attention and may not be available for purchase. But if you have channels in your hands, it will be different...
When Gu Yan came to the hotel, there were already many guests.
He was wearing a dark blue suit. He was tall and had long legs and a handsome face. He was like a luminous body, and he attracted a lot of attention as soon as he got out of the car.
Gu Yande immediately saw Gu Yan, who was in his forties, with a refined demeanor, and was standing at the door to welcome the guests. Because he is much older than Gu Yan, he always has the airs of an elder when facing Gu Yan. He smiled reservedly and kindly at Gu Yan, "Gu Yan is here too, go in quickly, everyone is waiting for you."
Of course Gu Yan didn't think that Gu Yande didn't know about Gu Yanxin's murder of him, but since he wanted to play a good younger brother, he certainly wouldn't embarrass him face to face, and smiled: "Brother."
"Okay, it's good if you can come." Gu Yande seemed quite relieved, patted Gu Yan on the shoulder, and then went to greet other guests.
When Gu Yan walked into the hotel, there were already quite a few people inside. Bai Ya was all dressed up, giving her a rare sense of grace and luxury. It really is true that people want clothes and Buddhas want gold clothes. She looked around, and when she saw Gu Yan, her eyes lit up obviously, both pleasantly surprised and relieved.
"Yanyan, you're really here." Bai Ya's eyes were complicated, which she didn't expect.
Gu Yan lied as soon as he opened his mouth, without any hesitation or unnaturalness, he looked deeply at Bai Ya, "I thought about it, I used to be ignorant, and I made things difficult for you."
Immediately, Bai Ya's eyes were red with emotion, and she shook her lips: "No, you are fine, it's because mom is bad..."
Gu Yan suddenly reached out to hold her hand, firmly and calmly, which made her feel at ease instantly, and knew that it was not appropriate to shed tears at this time, so he blinked and smiled: "If your father sees you, he will definitely be very happy too."
"Yeah." Gu Yan smiled slightly.
Gu Yanxin stood in the corner of the hall, looking at Gu Yan and Bai Ya gloomyly, with resentment shining in his eyes.
Yesterday overnight, all the properties under his name were subjected to ad hoc investigations, and every tax evasion and violation of laws and regulations was found out. All the things he thought were seamless in the past were spread out in broad daylight. There is nothing to hide from the sun. At that moment, he realized how fragile everything he was proud of was.
He didn't know who he had offended, but he knew he was going to die. He has always been a little unruly in his work, and his hands and feet are not very clean. If he really wanted to be punished, those crimes would be enough for him to spend the rest of his life in prison, and he wouldn't even have the chance to find someone to replace him.
And the worst thing is that he doesn't remember offending someone with this energy at all, he is really dead for no reason, and he is extremely aggrieved.
Gu Yanxin thought that he had no chance to attend today's birthday banquet... In desperation, he saw the man surnamed Qin. The man looked at him like he was looking at a dead dog, with no emotion in his aloof eyes. He should have been angry at such contempt, but at that time, there was only fear in his heart.
Because he finally knew that in today's society, there is still such an existence that can ignore all power... a word can decide life or death.
Then he finally understood who he had offended.
He knew it after listening to the recording. Although he wanted to tear Zhu Huanwei apart from the bottom of his heart, he also knew that he had to be obedient at this moment to have a chance of survival.
Today, he dragged his exhausted body, forced himself to cheer up, and pretended that there was nothing abnormal to attend the birthday banquet.
Thinking of everything because of Gu Yan... Gu Yan's heart was full of hatred, that damned woman, that damned illegitimate child, robbed his father, divided his property, and dawdled in front of his eyes for twenty years in a despicable and shameless way... for many years! And he is now! And greet them with a smile!
