The other side.
After leaving the Qin Association, Lin Wu took a taxi back to Xijin Mansion.
At that time, she happened to meet Guan Chen who had also rushed over. Before going to the Qin Association, she sent him a message to make an appointment to meet here.
As soon as he saw Lin Wu, Guan Chen got out of the car immediately without even closing the door. He asked, "Are we going to the Lu family tomorrow? I stayed in China for too long, and my brother urged me to go back tomorrow afternoon."
Lin Wu walked around him to the door, stopped to enter the password, and said, "I'll go there tomorrow morning. I've asked my people to contact Lu Guiyan and visit him in the name of a partner."
Guan Chen followed closely, pursed his lips, and asked, "Until now, there has been no news about Lu Guichi. Will he..."
"Don't overthink it. Lu Guichi is a member of the Lu family after all. His parents and his brother Lu Guiyan have always loved him and won't do anything to him." Lin Wu said as he walked in, "I guess the Lu family is afraid that Lu Guichi will get involved and something bad will happen after what happened with Situ Yue, so they banned him from going out."
Guan Chen still felt uneasy and asked, "How about we go tonight?"
"No, I have other things to do tonight."
Lin Wu refused.
Guan Chen responded disappointedly: "Well, is there anything else I can do?"
After entering the villa, Lin Wu went straight to the kitchen, opened the refrigerator, took out two cans of cold beer, and threw one of them to Guan Chen.
She opened it and took a big gulp. After a moment, she said, "There is indeed something I need your help with."
Guan Chen immediately asked, "What's the matter?"
Lin Wu turned around and looked at him. "I have to meet someone tonight. You come with me, but don't walk with me. I will hold that person back. You find a chance to avoid surveillance and get into that person's car to help me install a bug."
Guan Chen was stunned and said, "This is illegal."
"I know."
“…I’m Interpol.”
"I know."
“………”
Guan Chen nodded in agreement: "Only this once."
Lin Wu reminded: "There may be people secretly monitoring this person, you must be careful not to be discovered."
Guan Chen asked doubtfully: "Does this matter... have anything to do with finding Lu Guichi? Are you going to meet Lu Guiyan first tonight?"
"no."
"……oh."
Lin Wu turned around, drank the cold beer in one gulp, and threw it into the trash can accurately.
She said, "I'm going upstairs to get some things and we'll leave in half an hour. You can go to the backyard and pick out an inconspicuous car. We won't drive the same car."
Guan Chen nodded.
Lin Wu turned around, walked around him, went upstairs, and went straight to the study.
Then he opened the dark room, went in, got some equipment and put it on, then found a bug and went out.
She stayed in the study for a while and went downstairs when the time came.
In the backyard, Guan Chen turned around when he heard footsteps and said with a blank expression, "Are you sure your car is inconspicuous?"
He pointed at the yard full of cool, eye-catching supercars.
Which one of these is inconspicuous? ? Lin Wu was puzzled: "What else? Isn't the one on your right inconspicuous?"
Guan Chen glanced at it: "..."
He recognized it as the new model of the Camero supercar series from last fall. It was indeed inferior to the other cars, but it was still eye-catching when placed outside! "It's okay, you can take that one. The key is on the right front tire. Just follow me from a distance." Lin Wu gave the bug to Guan Chen and picked a car to get in.
Guan Chen had no choice but to follow.
Lin Wu drove out of Xijin Mansion District and arrived at a private club about half an hour later.
She got out of the car, gave the car keys to the doorman, explained her identity, and was led in by the club manager.
The moment he stepped forward, Shen Li caught a glimpse of the car driven by Guan Chen.
Lin Wu went in and saw the man sitting at the head seat of the round table.
——Gu Chengbai.
Yes, the person Lin Wu wanted to see this time was him.
"Mr. Gu arrived early. Sorry for the long wait."
Lin Wu walked over, pulled out a chair and sat down opposite him.
Since she came in, Gu Chengbai has been looking at Lin Wu, his eyes full of inquiry.
Lin Wu made an appointment to meet him last night.
With the relationship with Chi Yangzhi, it would be even more impossible for him to refuse.
This was the first time he met Lin Wu. However, when Lin Wu walked in, he looked up at her and was dazed for a moment, and an absurd thought popped into his mind.
Dad is right, this Lin Wu... is indeed somewhat similar to his mother.
If he didn't look carefully, he might even mistake her for a younger version of his mother.
But how is this possible? ? The inquiry in Gu Chengbai's eyes became more intense, overshadowing the surprise and suspicion, making him look calm and indifferent: "I wonder what Miss Lin wants to talk to me about? If it's about school, you can contact my mother directly. As for other matters... I don't think it's a big deal."
Lin Wu got straight to the point: "What if it's the Huo family's business?"
Gu Chengbai's eyes changed.
After a moment, he said, "That's fine, let's eat and talk at the same time. Otherwise, Miss Lin is my mother's student and if she gets hungry, my mother will probably blame me."
Lin Wu nodded indifferently.
Gu Chengbai called the manager outside to come in and signaled Lin Wu to order the food.
Lin Wu just casually named a few dishes and gave some instructions.
Gu Chengbai listened in silence, looked at Lin Wu with a subtle look, and said in a mysterious way, "Ms. Lin has a good appearance. Perhaps you inherited it from your mother?"
Lin Wu frowned: "Didn't Teacher Chi tell you? I'm an orphan and I don't know who my biological parents are."
Gu Chengbai actually regretted the moment he asked the question.
He had already heard of Lin Wu's name and was very curious about what kind of person she was.
Especially after what happened with the Situ family, his opinion of Lin Wu changed a bit and he became more interested in her.
This time he had the opportunity to meet her in person, even though it was sudden, he was determined to find out her background, especially what role she played in the affairs of the Situ family, how much she knew, and whether she was an enemy or a friend.
In such a confrontation and test, every step is crucial.
Who would have thought that he couldn't help but ask a question that was beyond the control of an ox or a horse.
But looking at Lin Wu's face, he had a little bit of a favorable impression of him and inexplicably wanted to know more about him.
In fact, he almost had a second sister. If it weren't for the accident, if that sister had survived, she would have been the same age as Lin Wu, and would have looked like her mother, and would have been very likable.
He and Shiqing had talked about it. If that was the case, they had to prevent their little sister from growing up to be a silly tomboy. Their Gu family was in need of a pretty and well-behaved little princess...
etc!
"Ms. Lin, you are from North City and you are eighteen years old this year, right?" Gu Chengbai asked suddenly.
Lin Wu frowned and looked at Gu Chengbai, not understanding why he asked this. Considering Chi Yangzhi, Lin Wu nodded patiently.
"So when is your birthday?"
"August 3rd."
Lin Wu said coldly: "Teacher Chi knows all this. But I'm not here to discuss this with Mr. Gu."
However, Lin Wu didn't know that Gu Chengbai's heart was already in great turmoil at this moment.
