So when he arrived, he also attracted a crowd of onlookers.

However, his face was very cold, and those people were persuaded to retreat by the cold air emanating from him before they had time to step forward.

Gu Qingyan and Zhou Jian stood in a corner in a low-key manner, watching the people coming and going.

Until a man with a somewhat mixed-race appearance walked over, followed by a stout middle-aged man.

Gu Qingyan frowned. He had never seen that middle-aged man's face before, but it gave him a feeling of déjà vu.

Murong Ye was holding the goblet, with an evil and feminine expression between his brows.

His temperament is different from Gu Qingyan's cold temperament, but gives people a noble and gentle feeling.

Gu Qingyan's eyes met his, and the corners of his mouth raised slightly, showing great confidence.

He gave Gu Qingyan a very dangerous feeling. No one had ever given him such an unpredictable feeling, and he was the first one.

Because of this, Gu Qingyan couldn't underestimate him.

While Gu Qingyan was thinking, Murong Ye had already walked in front of him.

"Mr. Gu, I have long admired your name."

Murong Ye held the wine glass, nodded slightly, and said in a friendly manner.

Gu Qingyan also clinked glasses with him and lightly opened his thin lips, "Mr. Murong, I have heard this name frequently recently. I didn't expect him to be so young."

Murong Ye smiled faintly and said very modestly, "Mr. Gu is a young and promising man. I have heard a lot of your legendary stories."

When Gu Qingyan saw him smiling, she stopped talking to him in official tone, but looked at the man behind him, "Who is this?"

The middle-aged man noticed Gu Qingyan's gaze, the surprise in his eyes flashed away, and he quickly regained his composure.

Murong Ye was unusually calm. He glanced at him and said, "This is my secretary, Peng Xiangxin."

That Peng Xiangxin was named by Murong Ye, so he cleverly stepped forward and said hello to Gu Qingyan, "Mr. Gu, hello."

Gu Qingyan looked at him and couldn't remember where he had seen him before, but the feeling of familiarity was getting stronger and stronger.

Murong Ye glanced at Gu Qingyan. The expression on his face was unpredictable, and it was impossible to tell what he was thinking.

Today is my first confrontation with Gu Qingyan, and there will be many opportunities to interact with him in the future.

Gu Qingyan returned his gaze to Murong Ye, and spoke after a while, "I heard that Mr. Murong has negotiated a lot of cooperation recently. It is not easy for a company that was established less than ten days ago to do this. "

"Mr. Gu praised me. It's a small order, so it's not surprising."

He conveyed it in an understatement, but his words were sarcastic towards Gu Qingyan.

It is indeed a bit ridiculous to say that even a newly established company like his was able to grab orders from the Gu Group.

Gu Qingyan's expression did not change, and he said calmly, "Yes, these small orders are indeed not worth mentioning. It doesn't matter whether they have them or not."

Murong Ye's expression changed, and the atmosphere between the two people suddenly dropped.

I originally wanted to see Gu Qingyan's joke, but he didn't expect that he could resolve his embarrassment with just one sentence, and instead made him look very humble.

"Everything is difficult at the beginning. If you can take small orders now, you can take big orders later."

This is what Peng Xiangxin said. Seeing that Murong Ye didn't react, he was unwilling to be at a disadvantage.

Gu Qingyan did not expect that Peng Xiangxin would come to the rescue. He glanced at him and continued to Murong Ye, "Mr. Murong is surrounded by so many talented people. Even his secretary's conversation is so extraordinary. No wonder he can get clients who have always cooperated with Gu." .”

"Mr. Gu, I should learn more from you.

But what he said is right, the tides turn and no one can remain prosperous forever. "

He took a step forward and spoke in a tone that only two people could hear.

For this reason, Gu Qingyan didn't bother to talk to him any more and just took a step back.

He handed the goblet next to him to Zhou Jian and then said to Murong Ye in front of him, "Then we'll see."

As soon as he finished speaking, before Murong Ye could speak, he turned around and left.

Murong Ye stared at Gu Qingyan's figure and tightened his hands hanging by his sides.

"President, Gu Qingyan speaks too arrogantly. We need to find an opportunity to deal with him."

Peng Xiangxin was fanning the flames.

Murong Ye turned around and glared at him impatiently, "I am capable of being arrogant, why are you making a fuss?"

He couldn't leave without looking back, while Peng Xiangxin froze on the spot.

Murong Ye's temper was really unpredictable. Sometimes he was like a docile cat, but he would be merciless when he got ruthless.

This person who gave Gu Qingyan the feeling of déjà vu was none other than Lu Yuanjun, who escaped five years ago. He left Qincheng by water, and later changed his appearance and identity.

I met Murong Ye in an accident. At that time, he was almost in danger and was rescued by Lu Yuanjun. The condition was that he would stay by his side and help him get revenge.

At that time, Murong Ye was the illegitimate son of Ying Hao, a well-known entrepreneur in Yuzhou, and his biological mother was Murong Xueer.

Ying Hao was already married when they met, but he kept it from Murong Xueer until she knew the truth, and she was already pregnant.

The person who told her the truth was not Ying Hao, but Ying Hao's wife Liang Siliu. She threatened Murong Xueer to leave Liangzhou, otherwise she would die.

In order to save the child in her belly, Murong Xueer did not tell the truth. She just agreed to Liang Silu's request and left Liangzhou under her arrangement.

As fate would have it, Murong Xueer gave birth to Murong Ye, while Liang Siliu gave birth to daughters in several pregnancies.

During this period, Ying Hao planned to marry again, but was flatly rejected by Liang Silu.

She cried, made trouble, and hung herself. Under her nonsense, Ying Hao was also exhausted mentally and physically. After all, Liang Silu's natal family was a family that could rival Ying Hao at that time. If they really broke up, no one would be able to benefit.

Murong Xueer originally planned to hide the truth from Ying Hao, but when Murong Ye was seven years old, she fell seriously ill.

The doctor issued several critical illness notices at that time, saying that the hospital could not operate on Murong Ye because the funds were not in place.

In desperation, Murong Xueer had no choice but to take Murong Ye to find Ying Hao.

From that time on, Murong Ye was accused of being an illegitimate child. Later, after Murong Xueer passed away, he was often shunned by others in the Ying family.

Because he was afraid that he would snatch the Ying family's property, Liang Silu arranged for someone to kidnap him on his way out.

They originally planned to deal with Murong Ye in the wilderness, but they didn't expect that he disappeared while they were leaving.

At that time, Lu Yuanjun happened to be passing by and rescued Murong Ye with his promise.

Withdrawing from the whirlpool of memories, if it weren't for the fact that Murong Ye was valuable now, how could he stay by his side and suffer.

No matter how unwilling he felt, Lu Yuanjun could only swallow his anger, raised his head again, put on a smile, and followed Murong Ye.

After Gu Qingyan and Zhou Jian came out of the banquet hall, they got into the car in silence.

Zhou Jian glanced at Gu Qingyan in the back seat. His face was deep and he could tell that he had something on his mind.

Knowing that he was in a bad mood, Zhou Jian did not bother him.

However, the phone rang suddenly, and Gu Qingyan's face, which had been cold just a second ago, suddenly softened, and when he spoke, the corners of his mouth raised intentionally or unintentionally.

"Xiao Su."

Gu Qingyan's voice was very soft, and this tenderness was exclusive to Fang Xiaosu.

I don't know what the person on the other end of the phone said, but I saw Gu Qingyan frowning, but there was no blame in his tone, only full of concern, "If you want to eat, just let Auntie and the others go out and buy it. Why do you have to endure it?"

Not only would she starve herself like this, but she would also worry Gu Qingyan.

When Zhou Jian heard this, he didn't know what Fang Xiaosu said. Gu Qingyan would be angry, but he was sure that it must be because Fang Xiaosu didn't take care of himself.

"Let's go to the beef noodle restaurant."

It wasn't until Gu Qingyan's voice came that Zhou Jian came out of his trance and quickly agreed. Fang Xiaosu called in the middle of the night because he wanted to eat beef noodles.

Forgive him for wanting to laugh, but he subconsciously glanced at Gu Qingyan's face, which didn't seem very good-looking, and he suppressed his laughter.

"By the way, Zhou Jian, do you have a good-looking person like Peng Xiangxin? Where have you seen him?"

Thinking of the middle-aged man he met at the banquet, Gu Qingyan always felt that something was wrong, but couldn't explain it.

Although Zhou Jian also felt this way, he and Peng Xiangxin had never met before, and he didn't know why.

"Go check his identity tomorrow and report it to me verbatim."

Gu Qingyan ordered in a deep voice.

It wasn't until she returned home and saw Gu Qingyan back that Fang Xiaosu's heart dropped. He put the noodles she wanted to eat in front of her.

He patted her head dotingly and said softly, "Next time, promise me, let auntie make whatever you want to eat, and I will tell grandpa."

Fang Xiaosu was shocked when she heard what he said, "You can't tell grandpa."

"Why?"

Gu Qingyan said doubtfully.

"Grandpa will be unhappy if you do this."

Fang Xiaosu shook his head.

If Gu Qingyan really went to find Mr. Gu, then they would definitely have a fight. She didn't want the relationship that had finally been restored to return to the freezing point.

"Then you promise me that you must take care of yourself and don't let yourself be wronged."

Gu Qingyan said.

Fang Xiaosu heard his request and nodded hurriedly, "I promise. I promise you whatever you say."

Gu Qingyan's expression softened a little. He said that, but he still had to make it clear to Mr. Gu.

Originally, Fang Xiaosu had little ability to withstand pressure, but Mr. Gu still pressed her so hard. He was the one who felt bad.

So during dinner early the next morning, Gu Qingyan sat opposite Mr. Gu with a straight face.

"If you don't eat, you have a lot of time?"

Mr. Gu was eating the rice in his bowl and said to Gu Qingyan casually.

"Look what kind of food is this? Can I eat it?"

Gu Qingyan ordered the dish next to him and said displeased.

"These vegetables are so nutritious, why can't you eat them?"

Mr. Gu pretended to be confused, pretending to understand.
