In the past, because of Su Ning, every time Gu Jingchen and Chu Feng met, they were on the verge of conflict and couldn't stand each other.

After Su Ning's accident, he felt a sense of kinship with people related to Su Ning, wanting to find Su Ning's shadow in them and to hear their stories about Su Ning.

"Yes," Chu Feng replied, gazing at Gu Jingchen. He looked even thinner than she had seen him recently, and his dull, lifeless eyes always conveyed a sense of sadness, stirring a pang of bitterness in one's heart.

“Ningning, she…”

Su Ning's near-death experience was due to the Xu family; her narrow escape was also thanks to the Xu family.

With the Xu family's situation still unresolved, Su Ning wasn't in a hurry to meet with Gu Jingchen.

Looking at Gu Jingchen like this, Chu Feng, who was always cold-hearted, didn't know if she had become soft after experiencing love, or if she was moved by Gu Jingchen's infatuation and wanted to remind him that Su Ning was still alive.

Before Chu Feng could continue, Gu Jingchen eagerly took over the conversation.

"She will come back."

Immersed in the business world, he met many people, and those who inquired about his affairs offered him comfort in various ways.

They felt relieved because they thought Su Ning was in grave danger; she hadn't shown herself for so long, perhaps she was no longer alive.

Gu Jingchen didn't like hearing such words, and subconsciously stopped Chu Feng from continuing when he heard Su Ning's name.

Chu Feng was taken aback, sensing the displeasure in Gu Jingchen's words.

Getting angry means you're scared!

She was like this before, unable to bear hearing her family members say things like Su Ning wasn't there.

“Mr. Gu, I also believe that Ningning is still alive.”

Chu Feng smiled and replied.

Her words softened Gu Jingchen's expression. The two didn't say anything more. Chu Feng was about to leave when the door to a private room opened, and a man with a smile walked towards Gu Jingchen.

The man had handsome features, giving Chu Feng a sense of familiarity.

"Mr. Gu, let's go."

Xu Bai had met with Gu Jingchen yesterday and talked until his throat was dry. Gu Jingchen was unyielding and insisted on making things difficult for the Xu family no matter what.

It's not that the Xu family is afraid of Gu Jingchen; it's just that things that can be negotiated don't necessarily have to be resolved at such a high price.

They are all businessmen and shouldn't prioritize profit. If things continue like this, it could lead to a lose-lose situation, and who knows who might be the one to reap the benefits behind the scenes.

"good!"

Gu Jingchen responded. He had initially intended to decline the request from Old Master Xu, but after some thought, he agreed.

Where are you going?

Chu Feng looked away from Xu Bai and asked Gu Jingchen a question.

"The Xu family!"

After Gu Jingchen finished speaking, he walked towards the elevator. Xu Bai smiled at Chu Feng and followed him.

Chu Feng turned around and looked at Xu Bai thoughtfully. Why did this man look so much like Ning Ning? No, he looked like Su Xincheng.

The Xu family?

The Xu family has three young masters. Which one is the one who brought Gu Jingchen to the Xu family?

Even if he is a half-brother, how could he possibly be like Su Xincheng!

Gu Jingchen had visited the capital many times. Four years ago, he visited the Xu family with Mr. Gu, but this was his first time visiting the Xu family's old residence.

The old house's architecture leans towards the Chinese style, somewhat similar to the Su family's, but in terms of layout, structure, and the bonsai and rockery placed around it, it is a step above the Su family's.

Indeed, the Xu family is the most prestigious family in the capital. How could the scholarly Su family compare?

"Mr. Gu, this way please!"
