Gu Yue, who had just woken up from a hangover, contacted his assistant and looked back at the woman who was still asleep on the bed. He frowned and moved more gently.
There was a note he left on the bedside table. He had arranged a two-day business trip and his assistant would deliver his things directly to the airport.
Gu Yue had just closed the door and was about to leave when the phone in his arms rang.
Seeing the name displayed on the screen, Gu Yue couldn't help feeling repulsed. He hesitated for a long time before picking up the phone.
Before he could speak, he heard his father's emotionless command.
"I don't care where you are. I want to see you in the study within half an hour."
Gu Yue had followed his father for many years, so he naturally knew that his father rarely got anxious because he was afraid that something had happened.
I wanted to refuse in my heart, but when I opened my mouth, it turned into: "Okay."
After hanging up the phone, he glanced at the call time, which was less than a minute, and smiled sarcastically.
The assistant was just about to leave for the airport when he was told that he didn't need to go. He was a little confused.
As Gu Yue started the car, he asked him, "What's the news about the Gu family today?"
The assistant was stunned for a moment: "The Gu family has been very peaceful recently, and we haven't received any negative news today."
Gu Yue pondered for a moment. Since the company wasn't the problem, the only thing that could affect his father's mood was his overseas assets. Last night seemed to be the day when overseas stock markets opened.
He had a plan in mind, and his hands moved quickly, turning the steering wheel with one hand, and the white Porsche roared towards the Gu family.
Early in the morning, the servants in the old house dared not make a sound and were more careful than before, for fear of making mistakes and being used as a punching bag.
Lu Anning was still asleep when he vaguely heard the phone ringing. He picked it up subconsciously, not realizing that he had picked up the wrong phone belonging to Tang Jingyuan.
The familiar voice of my eldest brother came to my ears: "Last night, you secretly made my father bleed? You were too brave to vent your anger on Ayue."
Lu Anning suddenly woke up and sat up from the bed.
"Brother, what did you say?"
Gu Yue was also stunned for a moment, looked carefully, and made sure that he had not made a mistake.
"Where's Jingyuan?"
"He's changing his clothes. What did you say? Letting father bleed? What's going on?"
On the other end of the phone, Gu Yue gave a simple explanation. He was just guessing and he would only know what was going on after he returned.
"I think the only person who dares to go against our father and has the ability to do so is Jing Yuan."
Lu Anning hesitated: "Last night, we went to bed early."
After returning yesterday, she was in a bad mood. Tang Jingyuan was worried about her and didn't go to the study at all. He stayed with her the whole time.
Could it be that he called Lin Tao privately and told him to do it?
"I'm here. I'll talk to you later."
Before Lu An Ning could ask clearly, Gu Yue had already hung up the phone, leaving Lu An Ning sitting there confused.
When Tang Jingyuan changed his clothes and came out, he saw Lu Anning sitting on the bed in a daze, holding her phone. When she saw him coming, her eyes stared straight at him.
Tang Jingyuan felt a little uncomfortable being stared at and coughed twice.
"Don't look at me like that so early in the morning."
Lu Anning rolled her eyes at him and said, "What are you thinking about? Let me ask you, what did you do behind my back last night after I fell asleep?"
He told me not to do anything rash, but he was quietly doing something behind my back.
This man is dishonest!
Tang Jingyuan looked innocent: "It really wasn't me this time."
Lu Anning was suspicious. If it wasn’t Tang Jingyuan, then who could it be?
As soon as Gu Yue stepped into the ancient house, he felt that the air pressure around him dropped a lot in an instant. The servants in the yard were more diligent than usual, and even the voices of greetings became cautious.
When the housekeeper Zhou De heard the noise, he hurried out to greet them. When he saw Gu Yue coming back, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
"Master, you're finally back. The master is upstairs..."
Gu Yue nodded: "I'll go see him now."
As Gu Yue spoke, he took two steps at a time and came to the door of the study. He adjusted his breathing and knocked on the door calmly.
"Enter!"
When the door opened, a strong sense of oppression hit him. Gu Yue only saw a figure sitting at the desk. A few rays of sunlight coming in from the window could not dispel the gloom on the other person.
He stepped in and closed the door.
"dad!"
Gu Zhiwei responded, raised his eyelids and glanced at him, his cold eyes like a snake fell on his collar, and his expression darkened.
"Were you with Ding Wan last night?"
Gu Yue frowned: "My son drank some wine."
"Well! Anyway, we're planning to register for marriage next month, so it's good to spend some time nurturing our relationship. I believe you can balance work and relationships well. Let's get down to business! Last night, the Gu family lost 100 million in the overseas stock market. Do you know about this?"
A hint of shock flashed across Gu Yue's eyes, and he subconsciously looked up at Gu Zhiwei.
“How could it be!”
"Someone deliberately set me up to bleed."
When this matter was mentioned, Gu Zhiwei's tone became a little colder. He had not suffered any loss for a long time.
"No one in Kyoto would be so bold. Except..."
The first person Gu Yue thought of was Tang Jingyuan, and he subconsciously held back the words. Regardless of whether it was true or not, he shouldn't have said it at this time.
Gu Zhiwei saw through Gu Yue's thoughts at a glance: "Do you think it's Tang Jingyuan?"
Gu Zhiwei sneered and shook his head. The first person he thought of was this guy. He immediately asked someone to investigate, but he found out from various signs that the person who was against him last night was not him.
"That guy last night seemed to know me very well. He always took action a second before I could make a move, suppressing me completely. Although Tang Jingyuan is powerful, his methods are completely different. I am sure that someone else caused the Gu family to lose money last night."
Losing 100 million was not enough to make Gu Zhiwei so angry. He was worried about something else.
