Among the three people who tried to kidnap Gu Lan, one was in the hospital and the other two were in the police station.
Everyone has been caught, and we are only one step away from the truth.
After an investigation, they all confessed, and it was revealed that Wang Chengyi was the mastermind behind the crime. The three of them were originally fugitives with a murder case. Wang Chengyi offered them five million to kidnap Gu Lan, hoping to make her obey with video and photos.
He was still calm and composed when the hotel incident was implicated. Now that Zhang Lisheng was also implicated, he could not sit still and wait for death, because the real estate project was caused by him colluding with Zhang Lisheng.
He quietly established a construction company and contracted the project through internal "bidding" through Zhang Lisheng. He had more stains on his body than Zhang Lisheng, and his methods were more ruthless than Zhang Lisheng's.
Ji Huai looked at the investigation results with a gloomy expression. The old and new accounts will be settled together, and he will make Wang Chengyi sit in jail!
Even so, he didn't dare to let Gu Lan get involved again.
Upon learning that Gu Lan had been suspended, the senior management and board members who had ulterior motives breathed a sigh of relief. In their opinion, isn't it Gu Lan who is causing trouble behind his back
What does Ji Huai, a dandy, know? After Ji Lang abdicated, the Ji family without Gu Lan was just a big cake waiting for them to divide it up!
Unexpectedly, Ji Huai proposed to intensify the investigation and set up several disciplinary inspection teams to investigate him to death.
"The Legal Department doesn't have enough manpower, so let's recruit as many as we can." Ji Huai stood on the stage with an arrogant look on his face, "Don't blame me for not reminding you, I'm a soft-spoken person. How many demons and monsters are there?”
He is so arrogant, he is a rich second generation who knows nothing about the world.
But he played accurately, and the disciplinary inspection team was accurate every time he checked. If you arrest a high-level executive and spit out millions, or even tens of millions, how can you not investigate
When Gu Lan was around, Ji Huai didn't take care of things very much. She more or less saved some face and had multiple considerations.
Ji Huai, on the other hand, acted as if he was crazy. He was ruthless and uprooted one by one. All kinds of minions couldn't escape, making you tremble.
Unable to bear the pressure, many senior executives surrendered themselves and were busy selling assets to fill the hole. The people in office are also worried. In the past, the hotel's maintenance funds were empty every month, and there was always a gap.
The people below are trying their best to pry things off here and fill in things there. Now there is a surplus every month, and the funds are very sufficient.
Although Gu Lan was at home, she was always ready to return to the company, fearing that Ji Huai would not be able to handle it alone. As a result, after waiting for one day, two days and three days, Ji Huai still looked calm and composed, not in any hurry.
Aunt Li took a long leave to take care of her sick father in her hometown. Ji Huai came to her every day after get off work, but he never talked about the company's affairs, and he didn't like working overtime after work, saying it was a waste of life.
She finally couldn't hold back and asked about Tian Ya's company.
Tian Ya also quickly replied to her message: The company's legal department has recently hired a lot of new people and sued many senior executives. We are very busy every day. Sister Lan, when will you come back to work
Gu Lan couldn't answer this question.
Tian Ya was worried for her and sent a voice message: "Sister Lan, are you having trouble with Mr. Ji? What are you doing now?"
"I haven't done anything, just rest at home." Gu Lan felt like he was going moldy.
Tian Ya waited for a while before replying to her, "It's good to have some rest."
In fact, she didn't know what to reply. Everyone was rumoring that Gu Lan and Ji Huai had broken up. The Ning family made a big fuss that time, and was suspended not long after.
It was really hot and gone quickly, and he even lost his job. As expected, he couldn't dream of marrying into a rich family, and he was still wondering if Gu Lan had blackmailed Ji Huai and ended up being kicked.
"Can the company handle the matter?" Gu Lan asked again.
She relaxed and felt that something was missing from her life. I've been so bored lately that I've been arranging flowers and grass, but it's not that material, and the flowers have died in several pots.
"It's okay." Tian Ya felt that she wanted to be needed and eager to come back to work, so she couldn't bear to say more.
In the past, she thought that Ji Huai was just a rich second generation who had done nothing, and that the company would not be able to survive without Gu Lan. She thought that everything was over when she learned that Gu Lan had been suspended, but in the end, nothing changed, or even got better.
Ji Huai is not as hardworking as Gu Lan. He seems to be idle and lazy, but he handles work well and does everything he should do.
Gu Lan was so smart that he naturally guessed it, but he was still a little disappointed.
Another message came from Tian Ya: "Sister Lan, are you free this weekend? Let's go out to eat and go shopping together."
When she first joined the company, Gu Lan gave her a lot of help. She couldn't help with other things, so it was okay to talk to the other person and relax.
Gu Lan: "Next time."
The company's investigation was coming to an end, and there was a lot of turmoil. The fact that she was almost kidnapped was also concealed. Ji Huai told her not to go out if she had nothing to do.
She also cherishes her life and there is no need to take risks.
"Okay then." Tian Ya didn't force it, wanting to wait for the other person to recover first. In her opinion, Gu Lan is a very arrogant person and will definitely not be able to recover for a while.
There are still constant discussions about Gu Lan in the company. Everyone originally came to her to discuss the two of them, but now they all sigh when talking about it. They all think that men are unreliable, love is bullshit, and they will not get married in the future, but have to make money and support themselves...
From time to time, people would ask for news about Gu Lan, but Tian Ya pretended not to know.
Ji Huai had to work during the day and overtime on weekends. Gu Lan felt like he was just waiting to be taken out.
She previously opened two coffee shops, which she opened with her college roommates. With nothing to do at home, I found a partner and wanted to open a parent-child training institution.
This project has been inspected before, but it was delayed due to busy work. Now I just have time to finalize the plan quickly.
In addition, researching stock funds has become a way for her to relieve her boredom. There was a small increase in the middle of the month, and she made a small profit. After getting used to this day, I felt so comfortable that I didn’t even want to go to work.
Ji Huai went to her apartment after get off work. There were several cardboard boxes in the living room. Hearing movement in the bedroom, he raised his legs and walked over.
She bought a projector online, installed it, and projected the movie on the wall.
"What are you looking at..." Ji Huai asked aloud.
Before he finished speaking, Gu Lan's expression suddenly changed on the bed, and he was so frightened that he trembled. He hugged the quilt tightly, and when he realized it was him, he threw a pillow at him, "Why are you walking silently?"
"Why are you so fascinated?" He took the pillow with a smile and turned to look at the wall.
A female ghost with rotten skin, a ferocious expression, and white eyes was appearing on the wall. She raised her hands and attacked him with her sharp and long nails.
Ji Huai: "..."
Gu Lan pressed pause, moved to the wall, lay down and got under the quilt.
"You're so scared that you turn off the lights and draw the curtains." Ji Huai walked to the bed, bent over and climbed onto the bed.
“…”
He got under the quilt and reached out to hold her in his arms, "But I also know not to close the door, so that if a ghost crawls out from under the bed, it can still run away."
Gu Lan glared at him, but he suppressed a smile and lowered his head to kiss her, "I'm joking, let's watch with you."
"Who wants you to accompany me?" Women always like to be duplicitous.
"I want to see it." Ji Huai continued to circle her and hold her delicate hand tightly in his palm, "I was thinking about you when I was at work, and I was absent-minded."
Gu Lan: "Take me to the company tomorrow?"
"No." Ji Huai objected.
She glanced at him and lay down to continue watching her show. Because someone was there, she turned up her voice louder and changed into a comfortable position, feeling much more relaxed.
Ji Huai continued to kiss her, "It will take some time, at most half a month."
She raised her eyebrows, "I'll go if you tell me to?"
"I implore you to go." He looked at her with dark eyes, his expression serious.
Gu Lan couldn't help but break the skill and raised his lips.
"I'm really sincere." He turned over and covered her red and delicate pink lips, "Forget it, please, we can negotiate any conditions, and I am willing to sell myself."
"..." Gu Lan put her hand on his chest and panted slightly, but her words were not strong enough at all, "You need some face!"
"Yes, here you go." He tilted his head and brought his face close to hers.
Gu Lan raised her hand and put it on his head, keeping dodging as he kept getting closer.
Horrible music and screaming came from the movie, and the two were fighting on the bed. The sound gradually changed, becoming thicker and breathless.
The body temperature of both of them rose rapidly, their breaths were warm, and they were tightly intertwined with each other. Gu Lan did not forget to turn off the light in the bedroom.
The curtains were drawn in the room, and the lights dimmed as soon as they were turned off.
She climbed up his neck with her long arms, her movements were seductive and charming. Ji Huai had no resistance at all, he was as anxious as a young man.
After a period of intense clouds and rain, it was already dark. When the two of them woke up, the dinner they had brought was already cold and they needed to be warmed up before they could eat it.
After dinner, they took a shower for a long time. When Ji Huai lay on the bed and closed his eyes to rest, Gu Lan was watching a movie. He put his arm around her waist, and their fingers were intertwined.
In fact, she is also very timid. She is a little woman who is afraid of cockroaches and ghosts.
The last time an insect flew into the car, she turned pale and tensed up, wanting to jump out of the car. Her reaction was so violent that he was startled.
Ji Huai couldn't sleep. Seeing that she was watching another famous ghost movie, he moved back and looked at her, "The female ghost in this show is wearing red pajamas. Are you sure you want to watch it?" "
She was wearing a burgundy silk suspender dress, with fair skin and smooth black hair. His throat felt dry again.
He was afraid that there was a shadow on her. After all, it was quite scary. She probably had never seen this before.
"If I were a ghost girl, I would come to you." Gu Lan changed his phone.
"That's great, the love between human and ghost is over?" Ji Huai held her shoulders tightly, covered her shoulders with his thin lips, moved up her slender and beautiful neck, and said in her ear, "Would you like to breathe in the Yang Qi? "
Gu Lan shrank his fingers and listened to what he asked for, "Beautiful female ghost, come and squeeze me dry, you're welcome."
“…”
Something slutty.
The movie didn't end either. Gu Lan was so sleepy at the end that she threw the red suspender skirt aside. Ji Huai held back his laughter and teased her, "Actually, I'm a male ghost."
She raised her foot to kick him, but her whole body was too weak to exert much force.
Ji Huai didn't hide. He pushed her slender legs down, put his arms around her, and caressed her face with his fingertips. He pinched and pecked her face, "I'll give you more when you return to the company at the beginning of the month." Recruit a secretary so that you don’t have to work overtime every day.”
"...Hmm." Gu Lan was already too sleepy and had no energy to fight with him anymore.
After a round of baptism, Ji shocked the entire industry and was on several hot searches.
When Ji Huai took over, everyone had speculated that he was no match for Ji Lang and was just a playboy. The directors and senior management were also watching, feeling that only Gu Lan was supporting him.
Immediately afterwards, Gu Lan was suspended from his post. He seemed to be casual and energetic, and his methods became more ruthless.
After dozens of managers were pulled out, some people said that if the vacancies could not be filled, there would be unrest. I didn’t see the turmoil in the end, but it was true that the blood brought vitality.
The hotel industry has been reorganized, and a publicity department has been specially set up to do this. It is responsible for online publicity. The prices are still high-end, but quality and experience are determined to be the first priority.
In addition, Ji Huai announced the reinstatement of Mr. Gu's position.
This decision confused everyone. Gu Lan coaxed Ji Huai back to good health again? They really don’t understand the world of rich people.
Tian Ya notified Gu Lan immediately, her tone of voice was filled with excitement, and she also said that she would go out for dinner to celebrate.
Gu Lan had not been out for a long time, so he agreed.
The two made an appointment to meet in the mall. Tian Ya thought Gu Lan might be a little haggard, but her eyes lit up when she saw her.
"What's wrong?" Gu Lan was confused.
Tian Ya: "Sister Lan, have you been doing well recently?"
"?"
"The skin is white and rosy, and the complexion is good." Tian Ya kept sighing, staring at her up and down with envy on her face, "The skirt is so beautiful, and her figure seems to be better."
Gu Lan, who is already fair, wore a lake green suspender skirt today. The neckline was designed with a draped collar and the waist was pleated, highlighting her slender waist. Her figure was graceful, beautiful and elegant.
"What do you want to eat?" Gu Lan dropped the topic a little unnaturally.
Tian Ya, a foodie, was immediately led astray: "I've been wanting to eat Chuan Chuan hot pot for a long time, and I'm so greedy that I cried."
"Um."
Gu Lan regarded her as his little sister, and naturally he had to pay the bills himself. Tian Ya said that she still had this month's salary saved and wanted to buy clothes. She also said that the boy she liked at school invited her to have dinner together and she needed to buy something good. She wanted Gu Lan to help with reference.
The two went to the clothing area on the fifth floor. Gu Lan remembered that there was a store here with relatively new styles.
"Hello, welcome." The shopping guide smiled and came forward to greet us.
Gu Lan was carefully choosing clothes for her, picking up the skirt and gesturing on her body, then choosing a top for her, "Go put it on and see the effect."
"Okay, I'll change." Tian Ya took the clothes and walked to the fitting room with a happy look on her face.
When she went to change, Gu Lan continued to look for clothes for her, picked up a purple puff-sleeved slit dress and asked, "Does this dress come in other colors?"
"Yes, it's over here. I'll get it for you." The shopping guide nodded immediately, walked to the side with a smile, and Gu Lan followed.
Other colors are much more pleasing to the eye than purple, so she contrasts light blue and light green.
"How good does this look on you? How young you look." Other shopping guides were complimenting other customers and kept praising, "Your skin is really good, you look like you are in your twenties. This suit of clothes makes you look whiter. It’s beautiful and there’s no one more worthy of it than you, it’s just made to measure for you.”
"Really? I think it looks good too."
Gu Lan heard the voice sounded familiar and turned around with his clothes.
Ms. Zhang Yueqing was standing in front of her, admiring the clothes on her body with her fingers raised. She then approached the mirror and observed her face carefully, smiling broadly, "Do I really look like I'm in my twenties?"
She heard that a very good beauty hospital opened here. The proprietress was very famous in the industry. She came to do some maintenance today to see the effect. I had just been praised to the heavens at the beauty salon. I felt that I was so beautiful and the clothes at home were not worthy of me, so I came to the store to take a look.
Of course, hearing people praise her is also the purpose.
Shopping guide: "Really, you are thirty? You see, my skin in my twenties can't compare with yours, and my figure can't even compare to yours."
Gu Lan silently withdrew his gaze and prepared to walk to the other side. Ms. Zhang Yueqing had a smile on her face. She saw a familiar figure behind her through the mirror. She frowned and immediately turned her head.
He walked up to her with high heels and saw that it was Gu Lan. He opened his eyes and asked, "Why are you here?!"
She was small and delicate, and even though she wore higher heels than Gu Lan, she was still half a head shorter than him.
Gu Lan was in a calm mood and continued to choose clothes, "Mrs. Ji, this is a shopping mall."
Ms. Zhang Yueqing was so angry that her chest was heaving a little. She was suppressing her anger while thinking of words to retaliate.
"Sister Lan, this dress is quite nice." Tian Ya walked out. As soon as she finished speaking, she saw Ms. Zhang Yueqing. She was also startled and called out, "Mrs. Ji."
Ms. Zhang Yueqing didn't have much in her head. She had forgotten about this secretary a long time ago. She just assumed that Gu Lan's family and friends already knew their family. Gu Lan must have introduced her. She raised her chin slightly with an arrogant attitude, "I don't know you, don't Indiscriminate relationship!"
Tian Ya was confused: "..."
ha
Immediately afterwards, she saw Ms. Zhang Yueqing walking towards her like a noble swan. She looked at the clothes on her body, glanced at the shopping guide, and said, "Don't sell this dress to her, as long as the two of them want to buy it." Yes, I want all the numbers!"
The shopping guide looked at Gu Lan and the two of them with a troubled expression.
When Gu Lan looked at the naive Ms. Zhang Yueqing, the corners of his mouth turned upward.
"Why are you laughing? I have money!" Ms. Zhang Yueqing refused to accept it. She took out a platinum card and raised her head again, "I can buy as much as I want!"
I won’t buy it for Gu Lan, this bad woman who caused her to be scolded and educated!
"This is the wife of Ji's Group. Didn't you hear that she wants all the clothes in the store? Why don't you pack them all quickly?" Gu Lan looked at the shopping guide's reminder.
When I heard it was a big deal, several shopping guides came.
"I didn't say it." Ms. Zhang Yueqing denied subconsciously and shook her head.
"You have to buy them all before I don't buy them. Don't give me a chance." Gu Lan said and gave several sets of clothes in his hand to the shopping guide, "Hurry up and put them all in, lest Mrs. Ji regret it."
Tian Ya also changed out of her clothes and handed them to the shopping guide.
The shopping guide held the clothes and asked politely, "Do you want all these clothes?"
Gu Lan also looked at Ms. Zhang Yueqing with a calm expression.
Tian Ya stood silently next to Gu Lan, watching this war without smoke. She felt that Ms. Zhang Yueqing's heart must be bleeding, and she could only grit her teeth for the sake of face.
Sister Lan is so tough!
Just when the shopping guide was insisting that she had a big order, Ms. Zhang Yueqing was furious and stretched out a slender hand forward. She pointed at Gu Lan with a livid face and complained, "You are simply going too far. I will definitely tell Xiaohuai." Bully me! I’ll call him now!”
Everyone in Tian Ya: "..."
They took another look at Ms. Zhang Yueqing. From head to toe, she looked like a well-dressed lady from a wealthy family, with jewels and diamonds shining brightly. However, her words were not very domineering, as if she was having a bad temper.
"Fight." Gu Lan said two words lightly without arguing with her, turned around and walked out the door, Tian Ya followed.
Ignorance is the biggest counterattack. Ms. Zhang Yueqing's eyes widened, and she felt as if she had punched cotton. Her whole face wrinkled and her little fists clenched tightly.
"Is she too much and arrogant? She stole my son and bullied me, me, me, me..." Ms. Zhang Yueqing was so depressed that her face turned red. She gritted her teeth and insisted on seeking justice for herself.
The shopping guide looked at the direction Gu Lan was leaving, then at Ms. Zhang Yueqing, "..."
Just looking at the aura of the two people, the winner seems to have been decided. One was extremely angry, and the other didn't respond at all. He left first because he didn't want things to get into trouble.
In fact, I'm letting it go.
Ms. Zhang Yueqing hurriedly changed her clothes, carried her bag, stepped on high heels, and went to look for Gu Lan like a chicken with her head held high and full of fighting spirit.
This time, she will win!
After searching for a long time, I finally saw Gu Lan and Gu Lan in the jewelry store on the first floor.
She paused at the door, took a deep breath, and walked in with high heels, pretending to be very aura.
"Sister Lan." Tian Ya's expression changed slightly when she saw Ms. Zhang Yueqing coming in.
When Ms. Zhang Yueqing saw her expression, she was very satisfied and felt embarrassed.
Gu Lan continued the option chain. On her birthday last year, Aunt Li made her a bowl of longevity noodles. On her birthday this year, her father was seriously ill, so she planned to send a gift and ordered a cake online to send it to her. It was also thoughtful.
"Hmph!" Ms. Zhang Yueqing walked up to her and snorted coldly. After thinking about it for a long time, she finally thought of what she could say to Gu Lan just now, "This is my shopping mall!"
So she has a voice.
"Yeah." Gu Lan pointed to another necklace, "Take this one out and let me take a look, thank you."
"The whole shopping mall belongs to me." Ms. Zhang Yueqing couldn't see her ignoring her and repeated it again.
"Yeah." Gu Lan took the necklace, gave her a look, and then slowly took it back, "So you want to buy the entire jewelry store?"
"..." Zhang Yueqing remembered the lesson just now, turned to look at the shopping guide, and pointed at several diamond necklaces and rings next to him, "Show me all of these."
The shopping guide had just heard the conversation between the two and learned that it was a big customer, so he went to pick it up and said, "Wait a moment."
After getting the diamond necklace and rings, Ms. Zhang Yueqing tried them on one by one and put them on her last four fingers. She looked at the necklace on Gu Lan's hand with disdain and said, "Such a small diamond ring doesn't look good. You must not know anything about it." Such jewelry is beautiful.”
"These, and these, and look at this."
When it comes to spending money to dress up, that's her strength.
The shopping guide praised her again, and the six-digit diamond ring on her hand looked more pleasing to her eyes. She raised her fingers to admire the diamond ring on her hand, turned to Gu Lan, lowered her tone and pretended to be fierce, and warned her fiercely, just like a husky. Pretending to be a wolf dog, "I'm telling you, don't think you can bully me. Our villa is my name. Let whoever I say come in, and I won't let you in!"
"Then where should I live?" Gu Lan asked her.
Ms. Zhang Yueqing was startled, thinking that she had given in. She became even more arrogant and proud, "How do I know where you live? You live in your house. No one can control me, not even Xiaohuai. I know you are very capable, so it's none of my business. ? His father knew before he died that someone would definitely bully me, and he had already arranged it. I have money, a lot of money every year!"
There is a dedicated trust manager to help her take care of it and pay her money on time every year.
"No, my house is too small." Gu Lan pretended to be thoughtful and said when Ms. Zhang Yueqing was confused, "I have to ask Ji Huai to buy me one and write my name on it."
"You, you, you..." Ms. Zhang Yueqing's eyes widened in shock, her little mouth opened slightly, and her face turned red. "It's unreasonable. You want to lie to my son. You are so bad! I will not let my son marry you. !”
All her emotions are written on her face, constantly changing, and she looks a little silly and cute for no reason.
Tian Ya could tell that Gu Lan was teasing her and couldn't help but laugh. The shopping guide next to her had a look of disbelief on her face. In the past, she had only seen girls who married into rich families being manipulated. This was a reversal.
Gu Lan also nodded: "I'm not getting married. You're welcome to come to my house when the time comes. I'll let you in."
Ms. Zhang Yueqing’s expression was stiff and slightly distorted. Wouldn’t that mean she would lie to her son to buy a villa instead of getting married? Too much, too much,
Gu Lan handed the necklace to the shopping guide and asked her, "Do you want to steal it from me? If you don't, I will pay the bill."
"I'm going to tell Xiaohuai!" Ms. Zhang Yueqing was furious, as if she had discovered a shocking secret. She walked out with her bag and angrily took out her mobile phone from the bag to call her son.
"Is everything going to be okay?" Tian Ya looked outside worriedly.
"It's okay." Gu Lan was paying the bill with a calm expression.
"This is your receipt." The cashier handed over the receipt and gave the bag to Gu Lan.
Gu Lan: "Thank you."
“Welcome next time.”
As soon as the two walked out of the door, there was a burst of exclamation and they found that Ms. Zhang Yueqing had been knocked down not far away, and her hand touched the tree planted in the fiberglass leisure chair. Because it had just been pruned, the branches were still very sharp.
She raised her hand and saw that there was a long cut, and blood immediately flowed out. Her face was pale and her voice trembled, "Blood... bleeding..."
So much blood.
The person who knocked her down was a young couple who were quarreling and clashing. The woman turned around and cursed, then turned around and bumped into her. When she saw what was going on, her face became panicked and she hurriedly ran away.
Gu Lan quickly stepped forward and grabbed her hand, his face darkened, "Didn't you see that the person was injured?"
"What are you doing?" The woman struggled in panic and looked to her boyfriend for help.
"Mind your own business, are you looking for a beating?" The man also stepped forward, raising his hand to beat Gu Lan. I saw her grabbing the woman, twisting her body, grabbing her hands back, and then pushing towards the man.
The woman lost her footing and threw herself forward, bumping into the skinny man. The two of them staggered a few steps and fell to the ground.
The mall security guard came to inquire, Gu Lan said with a cold face, "Why don't you stop me?!"
The security guard quickly stepped forward to restrain them. The two were still arguing. The security guard insisted not to let them go, otherwise the mall would bear greater responsibility.
Tian Ya had already helped Ms. Zhang Yueqing up. Her hands were still bleeding. One hand was supporting the other pitifully. Crystal tears were rolling in her eyes. She looked at Gu Lan and choked with sobs: "I'm injured..."
