Chapter 199 Someone is looking for you, follow me
Qi Yan was originally looking for Gu Nan in the crowd, and this time he noticed her at a glance.
Qingmo's gaze met hers across the crowd, and the moment their eyes met, a smile flickered across his face.
Shallow and subtle, yet gently blatant.
Gu Nan made a cheering gesture vigorously.
Go ahead, little brat, I’m watching you.
Qi Yan blinked twice quickly.
Gu Nan smiled and retreated back to the corner while no one else was paying attention.
Thanks to the low pressure around Xue Mingqian, Gu Nan's vision was clear.
From the perspective of the people downstairs, they could only see a person standing in the corner, but they couldn't see the specific face.
But Qi Yan knew that she had been paying attention to him.
Qi Yan retracted his gaze and focused his attention back on the crowded crowd in the hall.
He spent the whole day taking down information about guests, such as what to address people, their fields of work, their outstanding achievements, how to cater to their interests, and what not to mention. There were many things going on.
The old lady first took him to meet some of the most important elders and important figures, and then Cui Mingzhu and Pei Hong worked with him to shut up the gossips. Finally, it was up to him to deal with greetings and conversations from elders or peers. Cui Yue and Cui Shuangshuang accompanied him and helped him deal with some unsolvable problems when necessary.
Everything was arranged perfectly.
The entire Cui family went out.
As long as he works harder today, the road ahead will be much smoother.
Gu Nan was on the second floor watching Qi Yan chatting and laughing freely under the guidance of the old lady, as relaxed and casual as if he was strolling in the garden, and his heart finally settled down.
A relaxed smile unconsciously appeared in his eyes, the corners of his mouth turned up, and his chin was slightly raised. He looked honored and extremely proud.
When Xue Mingqian saw Gu Nan's appearance, he couldn't help but realize something.
The words I heard that night in the hospital echoed in my ears.
I like your pride and your refusal to give in.
I want you to live towards the sun even in the darkness.
There are so many zombies in this world, and you are not missing one. You can't become like that.
Qi Yan did not disappoint her.
He went from being a crumbling skeleton to becoming flesh and blood little by little.
Even though he was sitting in a wheelchair and looked a little thin in his white suit, he already had the dignity and arrogance of a young man from the Beijing circle.
His appearance is clear and clean, with the youthful spirit still lingering. He is like a beautiful jade that has just been cut. His every frown and smile is full of deep meaning.
Gu Nan saved a precious flower, and now the buds have bloomed, and everyone can smell the delicate fragrance that she cultivated personally.
Following the scent, the kind owner had already brushed away his fame and disappeared in the dust.
"I thought you would stand with him." Xue Mingqian retreated to the same position as her and whispered.
"It's good for me to watch him from here." Gu Nan was in a good mood, his tone as cheerful as a bird welcoming spring. "The old lady is a very good elder, and the relatives of the Cui family are also easy to get along with. I am happy for him, and he will be happy no matter where he stands."
Xue Mingqian lowered his eyes to look at her. She was concentrating on looking downstairs. Her eyes were sparkling, gentle and bright. The corners of her mouth raised again and again, and her little face was flushed with smile, as if the sunset glow that had fallen behind was drunk and fell directly on her face.
Her words and expression were genuine, and she was genuinely happy for Qi Yan.
Xue Mingqian's heart moved.
Everyone said that Qi Yan was an unlucky guy who had suffered for 19 years in vain.
He had thought so before, but at this moment, a ridiculous idea suddenly popped up in his mind.
Was all the suffering and grievances Qi Yan endured over the years just for the sake of meeting Gu Nan?
There are thousands of kinds of love in the world, but only a few are true.
He paid the expensive deduction in advance and then got the rarest and most precious treasure in the world.
Xue Mingqian suddenly felt a little envious of Qi Yan.
After all the hardship comes happiness, from now on, my heart will be filled with fragrant flowers.
Xue Mingqian's gaze was so aggressive that Gu Nan felt a chill on the back of his neck. "What's wrong?"
"You're fine."
Gu Nan: "Hmm?"
"You are a very good person." Xue Mingqian said, "I have never met anyone as good as you. You are so good that it makes people..."
Want to take it for yourself.
Xue Mingqian was stunned.
Gu Nan sighed and said "good" three times in one sentence. Does this mean she is being treated as a good person?
"Are you scolding me or praising me?"
She took a look at Xue Mingqian and felt that he was not the kind of person who would make sarcastic remarks or make indirect accusations.
Xue Mingqian came back to his senses, lowered his eyes to look at Gu Nan's inquiring eyes, suddenly smiled, and his cold brows suddenly relaxed.
The lethality of a person with a cold face suddenly smiling is amazing, especially for a ruthless tough guy like Xue Mingqian. It is like the snow melting after the rain, and the hard lumps on his body instantly turn into something soft as silk.
Coupled with his magnetic bass voice, it feels like you are lying on his broad and thick chest, listening to the sound vibrating out of his chest.
The huge contrast is so sexy that it makes people's scalp tingle.
Gu Nan was caught off guard and was hit red-handed.
In an instant, she suddenly felt Xue Mingqian's exploding male hormones.
Straightforward and fierce.
Just like him, very aggressive.
Gu Nan subconsciously took a step back.
No, Xue Mingqian, why are you suddenly laughing? Not only are you laughing, but you are also staring at her and laughing.
It's like being stared at by a leopard, and suddenly I feel like running away.
She can't beat a tough guy like Xue Mingqian.
Just as Gu Nan was about to find an excuse to slip away, Xue Mingqian's watch suddenly lit up.
With a light tap of two fingers, a transparent light screen was projected in front of his eyes.
After reading it, Xue Mingqian lightly turned off the light screen again.
He said succinctly, "Cui Shao is in trouble and won't be back. We can't stay here any longer. Come with me."
Gu Nan: “…”
Why is she a little unconvinced?
Are you kidding? What kind of trouble could Cui Shao encounter on the Cui family’s own territory?
Seeing that Gu Nan didn't believe him, Xue Mingqian explained, "He was kicked out of the villa by the old lady in order to stop someone who was looking for you."
Gu Nan: “!!!”
duang!
Who else would look for her in this place except Lin Jingchun!
If you don’t run now, when will you run?
Wait, wait! Don't make it too obvious, or it will arouse suspicion.
But is it appropriate to go with Xue Mingqian? She would rather hide in the women's restroom.
Xue Mingqian seemed to know what she was thinking, "I know this place better than you do. There is a secret room on the second floor."
Gu Nan decided to follow him and asked calmly as they walked, "Who's looking for me?"
Xue Mingqian looked at her deeply.
Although she hid it very well, he had received special training, and her micro-expressions were more real to him than the truth.
She clearly knew it, but pretended not to know.
"I don't know, he didn't tell me." Xue Mingqian walked in front to lead the way.
Gu Nan didn't say anything else and followed him closely.
Xue Mingqian's steps were very big, so she had to take small steps to keep up with him.
He took her into the empty study, pulled open the painting on the wall, found the switch of the secret room and turned it.
The wall rotated, and the secret room was spotless.
He walked in first and said to Gu Nan, "Come in."
