Chapter 36

Hearing Gu Chen's words, Li Tingqin looked away politely and looked at him again. He saw a faint smile in the young man's beautiful eyes, and he didn't know whether he said this intentionally or unintentionally.

After realizing this, Li Tingqin found it very interesting and smiled. He no longer avoided looking at Gu Chen. He helped Gu Chen tidy up his costume and said, "It's not an offense, but I think you are not ready to become my real partner, right?"

Gu Chen raised his eyebrows when he heard this. People like Mr. Li are not really so pure that they are embarrassing to look at. It's just a subconscious respect.

Li Tingqin was indeed very considerate and said, "It's getting late, Ah Chen, take a shower first, don't you want to rest early?"

Born in such a family, Li Tingqin actually faces a lot of temptations. He has also seen people in the circle who live a life of debauchery, have lovers everywhere, and are promiscuous... But it is very difficult to manage a positive and healthy relationship. He is very patient now.

"Indeed, let's take a shower first." Gu Chen picked another room at random.

After seeing Gu Chen go in, Li Tingqin called Assistant Chen in and said, "Send this costume to be cleaned and sent back to Songhe Villa for safekeeping."

But he suddenly remembered that in those terrible fan fictions, there would actually be people who took clothes worn by Xie Jingyuan and did such a thing, so he added: "Contact Jingwei tomorrow and take back all the costumes worn by Mr. Gu and send them back to the villa." None of the clothes worn by Ah Chen could be left in the crew.

"Okay, you should go to bed early too." After explaining these things, Li Tingqin also went into another room.

The next morning, Gu Chen got up at 6:30, but when he left the room, he found that Li Tingqin had already sat at the long table and started working.

There was a laptop on the table, and he seemed to be having a video conference. He crossed his fingers loosely in front of him and only said a few decisive words from time to time.

Seeing Gu Chen coming out, he said calmly: "That's all for today. I have other arrangements. If you can't make up your mind, please find your deputy general manager in charge."

After the video ended, he stood up and said to Gu Chen, "Aren't we going to work out together? Let's go."

Gu Chen said with a smile: "I have changed my fitness program to sword training now, so let's go our separate ways? After training, come back and have breakfast together?"

"Sure." Li Tingqin's expression didn't change, but he added, "Will you have a fencing club? The villa in H City can be converted into a fencing venue, and we can do it together next time."

"Mr. Li also knows this?" Gu Chen nodded, "That's fine." After all, it would be very boring for a person to dance with a sword without an opponent and lack a sense of confrontation.

"See you later." Li Tingqin didn't say much and turned to go to the gym.

Gu Chen came back from practicing sword skills and rested for a while. When he came out, he saw a table full of healthy breakfast. Suddenly, he felt that today he had a strange feeling that his identity had been swapped with Li Tingqin.

The breakfast was very much to Gu Chen's liking. It had all the dishes he had been satisfied with in the villa, the old house, and the hotel. However, Li Tingqin did not mention breakfast. He just said, "Ah Chen, have breakfast first. What are your plans later?"

Gu Chen and Li Tingqin sat opposite each other leisurely, eating slowly, and said, "Let's go back today."

Li Tingqin readily agreed and said, "Okay, there are indeed many people and eyes here."

Gu Chen and Li Tingqin were indeed leisurely, but the CEOs of several groups were rushing to the film and television city.

Yesterday, Li Tingqin went to the set to visit Li Jingwei. The news was not deliberately suppressed, and those who wanted to see him immediately got wind of it and took the earliest flight in the early morning. They have already arrived at the film and television city.

"Hurry, hurry, I wonder if Mr. Li has left..."

"Which hotel is Mr. Li staying in? Have you found out?"

At the same time, the paparazzi who were watching the film and television city also found that the hotel under the Mu family was already open for booking! And according to the normal part of Xie Jingyuan's scenes, as long as he didn't keep doing NGs like Yu Miao and delay the progress, he should have finished shooting yesterday.

Now it seems that the filming has really been completed, and the mysterious teacher will soon leave the filming city! If we don’t shoot now, there will be no chance at all!

The paparazzi also heard the news and acted quickly, trying to capture the mysterious teacher's departure.

But they found that today's film and television city seemed unusual, with many more luxury cars, and those assistants in suits seemed to be looking for something.

What's going on?

The paparazzi who always pride themselves on being at the forefront of news were all a little stunned at this moment. How could these people be more informed than them?

However, they took out their cameras and took pictures of the luxury cars passing by, and they managed to take a picture of a car with the windows open.

"Hey? Look, is this old man Mr. Zhao?" Because Mr. Zhao's business is also related to the entertainment industry, they recognized him at a glance.

"Ah...it can't be true as people speculate on the Internet, that they are all here to visit that one person?" People in the entertainment industry believe in this the most. As far as they know, there are many famous stars who raise little ghosts, so it's not surprising that they would believe in any master.

"Then hurry up! Hurry up and catch up!" Thinking of this, they were delighted again. With so many people looking together, there is strength in numbers. Wouldn't it be easier to find the one? And with so many rich people coming to ask for an audience, that one should definitely meet one, right?

After a while, it seemed that the assistants in suits and ties had really found some clues. The paparazzi saw that the luxury cars finally started moving, and most of them went to another top hotel in the film and television city.

They just felt that today was going very smoothly. The hotels in the film and television city always suspected that they were paparazzi and would not let them in, but these luxury cars should be allowed in, right? As long as they followed them, they would always be able to find something.

It was seen that these luxury cars successfully drove into the hotel's vast garden. The paparazzi who were stopped outside, holding cameras, kept a close eye on the movements inside.

At this time, in the parking lot of the hotel garden, Mr. Zhao rolled up the car window, answered a phone call, and angrily shouted: "Liang Lu, Yu Miao has lost his mind, are you also out of your mind? If you hadn't listened to Yu Miao and insisted on taking advantage of the young lady, would my taxation be investigated like this?"

"Do you think that if you didn't do it, you won't offend anyone by taking advantage of public opinion? Now that President Li has returned to China, I'm afraid he came back to support his sister. You can't afford President Li's anger, and neither can I. Now I have no choice but to swallow my pride and apologize to President Li in person..."

While waiting in the car, he watched the movements outside. When he saw another car coming, he frowned. What was this person named Sun doing here?

Assistant Chen had already noticed the situation below. Seeing that Gu Chen and Li Tingqin were about to leave after breakfast, Assistant Chen said, "The car that the eldest lady arranged for Mr. Gu is parked in the garage. You two can just take the elevator downstairs and leave. I will ask the hotel to clear the area."

Several bosses waited and waited, but they didn't see Li Tingqin coming downstairs to get in the car. Instead, another black luxury car drove out from the underground garage. At first, they didn't react.

The paparazzi who were watching from a distance suddenly became excited: "Here they come! The person in the last leaked photo was sitting in this car!"

Although the black anti-peep windows were closed, one of the CEOs' assistants still saw Assistant Chen in the passenger seat through the front windshield and quickly asked, "Is that Assistant Chen?"

Upon hearing this, the CEOs got out of their cars one after another, ran after the car in pitiful little steps, and said respectfully: "Boss Li, hello, I am..."

But before he could finish his words, the hotel security guards came out to stop him, saying, "Sir, sir, please be careful, don't chase the car, it's very dangerous..."

Soon, they were politely but firmly stopped by security personnel and watched the car drive away in a cloud of dust.

The paparazzi were stunned while taking photos from a distance...

That one really didn't show up? He didn't even get out of the car to show some respect? These CEOs are considered to be well-known figures, right? But they were all stopped by security and couldn't get close?

What did the comment say?

[Isn’t it written in the novel? When this kind of reclusive boss comes out, a group of wealthy people go to visit him but are turned away.]

Awesome.

It is indeed the truth.

Eh? Wait a minute? He just left like that? He's going to disappear again? Where can they get news about him? Is it too late for them to chase the car now?

…

Gu Chen and Li Tingqin did return to Songhe Villa to "live in seclusion" again.

However, Li Tingqin was leaving again that night, so he was just sent back.

Gu Chen felt that, to some extent, President Li was really an energetic person. He could make so much money, giving him 61 million in a month, and he could also rush to take a 12-hour flight to return to China to be with his nominal "wife".

He said, "Boss Li, isn't this too hard for you?"

Li Tingqin didn't think it was a big deal and said, "Fortunately, in a month or so, things over there will be over and we can return home."

They each packed up their own things, and then Li Tingqin saw Gu Chen take his exquisitely crafted sword, go into the utility room, and then put the sword on the shelf?

Li Tingqin: "How about changing the storage room to store your favorite things?" Although he didn't live here often, he knew the layout of this villa. Wasn't this small room used for storage before?

Aunt Zhang, who was cleaning, was stunned. A utility room? No, this place was used for storage because of its suitable location and orientation, and suitable temperature and humidity. Since Mr. Gu said that the sword should not rust, it is just right to put it here.

Aunt Zhang immediately explained: "Mr. Li, this is the most suitable room I chose in this house. I specially asked someone to modify it and installed a temperature and humidity control system..."

However, Li Tingqin disagreed: "If we consider temperature and humidity, my living room should be the most suitable."

This villa was originally designed for the owner to rest, and everything was for the owner alone, so the owner's living room occupied more than half of the entire villa, and was fully equipped. The rest, there were only two guest rooms and a regular functional area, so what good location could be found?

Aunt Zhang also knew that everything in Mr. Li's living room was the best, so she had to say, "How can I change your living room arbitrarily..."

Li Tingqin also understood other people's mentality and didn't say much. Instead, he helped Gu Chen carry his luggage upstairs. Then, he saw Gu Chen open the door of the guest room.

Li Tingqin: "..." Well, this is indeed expected. So Ah Chen didn't even have a place to put the things he liked.

He said, "Ah Chen, come here first."

He carried Gu Chen's luggage and opened the door of his living room. Inside, there was a bedroom, cloakroom, bath, audio-visual room, and storage room...

They entered the cloakroom, and Gu Chen found that all the costumes for his role as Xie Jingyuan had been returned and were neatly hung in the most conspicuous place in the cloakroom... This cabinet had a glass door with lights...

Gu Chen: “…” What is Mr. Li going to do?

Li Tingqin looked at the layout of the living room and arranged it: "The accessories area of ​​the cloakroom can be connected to the room next to it to store your favorite things. When the time comes, the costumes can also be moved over there. You can put your casual clothes here."

Gu Chen: “…” Mr. Li doesn’t think that this cosplay is something he likes, right?

But Gu Chen didn't explain anything. Instead, he smiled and said, "Wait a minute, Mr. Li, I didn't say I wanted to live here."

Li Tingqin's tone carried an irresistible tone: "I hope you can share the space here."

"Besides," Li Tingqin glanced at Gu Chen's wedding ring, his eyes were clear, "Aren't you already married?"
