Chapter 408 Fei Jiayi
She was just sending Gu Zhou here and was just finding an excuse temporarily.
She had no intention of coming to the Gu family to do anything.
As for sending him.
It's just a tease.
Who made him accept her rejection of his confession so quickly?
Not even a chance to fight for it.
It seems that my love for her is not deep enough.
She was thinking of a plan in her heart, and gave Gu Zhou a gentle smile: "I'd better not trouble you, Mr. Gu. I'll just ask Special Assistant Qin to take me there."
Gu Zhou casually reached into his pocket and said indifferently, "It's up to you."
Get in the car.
He glanced at the tall Gu Zhou standing outside the car.
She said directly to Special Assistant Qin: "Special Assistant Qin, please send me back to Wang's directly."
Fortunately, Special Assistant Qin implemented Gu Zhou's order very seriously: send her wherever she wants to go.
Didn't ask much.
"Okay, Mr. Ling."
She smiled lightly: "Thank you, thank you for your trouble."
"You're really welcome."
Out of the corner of his eye, Gu Zhou's subdued gaze still shone through the car window at her.
She rolled down the window and smiled at him: "Mr. Gu, we'll leave first."
Gu Zhou nodded lazily.
The car body starts.
She turned her head and her eyes passed through the car window and fell on the tall and straight figure outside the car.
Gu Zhou still stood there, like a silent sculpture, his deep gaze pressing heavily on her through the glass.
A lot of chaotic emotions were swirling in her heart.
"Zizi." The phone vibrated.
Pull her back from her wild thoughts.
It’s Anzhu.
All the information about the woman just now has been investigated.
Fei Jiayi, 25, began modeling during her junior year of college, gaining a certain amount of popularity thanks to her stunning looks. However, upon graduation, she inexplicably abandoned this seemingly glamorous career and has been unemployed ever since. Her relationship history section prominently reads: "Ex-boyfriend - Gu Chenyi." Her current boyfriend, prominently labeled: "A wealthy, elderly businessman (with a wife)," with the note: "Keeping status (third party)."
Wang Yuanling's fingertips paused lightly on the cold screen, and her watery eyes suddenly froze at the four words "ex-boyfriend".
Gu Chenyi...Gu Zhou's younger brother.
This woman turned out to be Gu Zhou’s brother’s ex-girlfriend...but she was hugging Gu Zhou so ambiguously downstairs of Gu’s building?
But Gu Zhou just said firmly: I don’t know him.
A sharp intuition instantly seized her.
The water here is probably deeper and muddier than she imagined.
She tapped the screen rapidly, a barely perceptible chill in her fingertips. "Continue investigating! Focus: What exactly happened between Fei Jiayi and the two Gu brothers in the past? I want to know every detail, especially any conflicts or unusual incidents."
The message was sent and the screen went dark.
Wang Yuanling put away his phone, raised his watery eyes again, and his gaze fell on the profile of Qin, the special assistant who was concentrating on driving in front of him.
She adjusted her sitting position, her tone casual as if she were chatting about the weather, with just the right amount of curiosity and a hint of subtle inquiry: "Next Wednesday is the engagement party for Young Master Gu." She smiled slightly and spoke softly: "I guess you guys have been very busy preparing for this engagement party recently, right?"
Qin's special assistant smiled and said, "Indeed, there is a little bit, but Mr. Gu has put in more effort and is more tired."
Wang Yuanling was puzzled: "Really? What did Mr. Gu do?"
"The entire engagement banquet process was almost entirely organized by Mr. Gu."
She laughed, "Then he's a really good big brother. It's obviously his younger brother's engagement, but he put in so much effort. They have a perfect brotherly relationship."
When she said the last sentence.
There was no mistake. When Assistant Qin heard her words, a flash of discomfort crossed his face.
Qin Tezhu's slight discomfort was like a stone thrown into a deep pool, causing ripples in Wang Yuanling's heart.
The smile on her face remained gentle, but her eyes were like ice-hardened probes, fixed firmly on the profile of Special Assistant Qin in the rearview mirror.
The air in the car seemed to stagnate for a moment, with only the steady hum of the engine.
Qin, the special assistant, was clearly aware of his recent misstep. He quickly adjusted his expression and tried to make amends in a professional tone, "Mr. Gu has always been very concerned about his family. Naturally, he attaches great importance to the Second Young Master's lifelong event. From the venue layout and guest list to the details of the process, Mr. Gu personally reviewed everything."
He paused and added, "Mr. Gu always strives for perfection in his work."
"I see," Wang Yuanling's voice was as gentle as a feather brushing past. "Mr. Gu is truly a good brother."
She pronounced the three words "good brother" clearly, with a kind of innocent admiration, as if she was completely unaware of the abnormality just now.
She leaned forward slightly, her elbows casually resting on the back of the front seat, her posture relaxed, but her eyes were more sharp as she captured every reaction of Assistant Qin.
"Speaking of which, Young Master Gu is truly lucky to have a big brother like President Gu who takes care of everything for him. I'm sure the two of them have had a particularly close relationship since childhood, right? Like... inseparable?"
Qin's fingers gripping the steering wheel tightened imperceptibly: "It has been like this since childhood..."
She caught a glimpse of this reflexive reaction, and her eyes grew sharper, but her voice remained gentle and harmless: "They must have a good relationship."
"The relationship between these two brothers is indeed... very good." Special Assistant Qin spoke a little slower than usual, as if he was suddenly explaining knowledge in an unfamiliar field.
She changed the subject: "I only know that the Second Young Master is getting engaged, but I don't know which daughter he's with."
"It's Wang, the leading influenza pharmaceutical company."
She was surprised: "Huh? Is it this Wang? Why did I hear that the second girl friend was a model? I heard she was very beautiful."
Special Assistant Qin's expression froze: "That... is the Second Young Master's ex-girlfriend. They haven't been in touch for a long time."
Wang Yuanling understood: "So that's how it is. I thought the Second Young Master would marry this model this time."
Special Assistant Qin: "No, they broke up a long time ago."
She smiled apologetically, "Fortunately I asked you in advance. We are all acquaintances, so you wouldn't mind if I said something wrong. But if I got the Second Young Master's marriage partner wrong in front of outsiders, it would be a big trouble."
Special Assistant Qin: "It doesn't matter. Ignorance is not a crime."
Wang Yuanling agreed with a crooked look in his eyes: "Yes, you are right. After all, you were unaware of it and didn't say it on purpose."
"Yes."
Her watery eyes looked out the window, the curve of her lips lowered a little, and she looked at the road scenery passing by, her heart full of emotions.
Arrived at the destination.
Before Wang Yuanling opened the door and got out of the car, she smiled gently, "Thank you, Qin Zhu. I'm so sorry for bothering you to give me a ride."
Qin Special Assistant immediately said: "This is what I should do."
She bent her eyes, closed the car door, and said goodbye: "Okay, you can go back. Be careful on the road."
Special Assistant Qin: "Okay, goodbye, Mr. Ling."
"Goodbye." She clasped her hands loosely in front of her, looked at the back of the car, and fell into deep thought.
Until the car body completely disappeared.
She turned around and was about to walk towards the door.
But suddenly he was stopped: "Wait a moment."
She looked in the direction of the voice and saw Fei Jiayi, the "heroine" she had just mentioned, standing in front of her.
Her eyes flashed with intent, but her smile remained friendly. "Hello, what can I do for you?"
