Gu Qingling fled home in a panic, and as soon as she got home, she found her father working in the study.
"Dad!" Gu Qingling pushed open the study door, startling Gu Dongting, who was on the phone.
"Okay, that's settled then, go and do it!" Gu Dongting said, then hung up the phone.
In the past two years, the Shen, Jiang and Su groups have formed a three-way balance of power in City A, and these three groups have gained influence over various industries. Seeing that other groups are facing obstacles in their development in City A, and many enterprises are being squeezed out of business by these three groups, Gu Dongting must solve the current predicament if he wants the Gu family to have a place in City A.
He put down his phone and looked at his daughter at the door with displeasure: "So impulsive and unruly, what kind of behavior is this?"
Gu Qingling hurriedly went in and closed the study door: "Dad, I ran into Mayor Huang tonight."
Gu Dongting flipped open the documents on the table and said dismissively, "So what if you saw it? Don't act like you've never seen anything like it before. You're a rich heiress, you need to be mindful of your image."
Gu Qingling walked to the desk: "Dad, I saw him with several strange men at a KTV, and it seems like Shen Baiyan was following him."
Gu Dongting paused abruptly upon hearing the last sentence. He looked up at Gu Qingling with a serious expression: "Are you sure you saw Shen Baiyan following him?"
Gu Qingling felt a little intimidated by Gu Dongting's gaze. "I'm not sure if we were following them, but Shen Baiyan and that spirit master's apprentice were there too."
The apprentice of the spirit medium?
The woman who swapped souls with her daughter?
Got it!
The woman's body belonged to her daughter, and she only had a few months left to live. Since that was the case, why not make use of her again?
Thinking of this, a sharp glint flashed in Gu Dongting's calm eyes.
"I understand. You can leave now. Don't tell anyone about this, and forget everything you saw today."
Gu Qingling was still curious about Huang Jianhan: "Dad, Huang..."
Gu Dongting interrupted her sharply: "Shut up! Don't gossip. You're a woman, so mind your own business. Don't forget, I spent fifty million to buy your life!"
After being scolded by her father, Gu Qingling immediately shrank back like a quail: "Oh, I know."
The next day——
Jiang Jinyu indeed brought the two people to 'Spirit Tales', one of whom was his personal assistant Chen Ke.
Chen Ke was Jiang Jinyu's most trusted person, without exception, so it was safer for Jiang Jinyu to let Chen Ke handle this matter.
Su Wan did not know Jiang Jinyu, nor did she know that Gu Chu was introduced by Jiang Jinyu.
Last night, after returning to the Platinum Villa, Su Wan received a call from Gu Chu before going to bed. Only after learning that Gu Chu had been safely rescued did she feel relieved enough to lie down.
Because she was suddenly alone, Su Wan slept very restlessly last night. She rolled out of bed in the middle of the night and woke up in fright. Then she had nightmares and eventually became completely unable to sleep.
At that moment, Su Wan, suppressing a yawn, her eyes welling up with tears, said, "Welcome!"
Gu Chu looked up and saw Jiang Jinyu. She said calmly, "You've come."
He then introduced to the somewhat bewildered Su Wan, "Wanwan, this is President Jiang. He's here to experience our 'Spiritual Tales' project. You two can discuss the details."
As Gu Chu spoke, she turned around to pour tea.
Su Wan warmly welcomed him in: "Mr. Jiang, hello! Thank you for your trust, please come in!"
Jiang Jinyu followed Su Wan to the rest area and sat on the sofa.
"Mr. Jiang, this is our customer registration form. Please fill it out." Su Wan said, picking up a form and handing it to Jiang Jinyu.
Jiang Jinyu didn't take it, but his assistant Chen Ke did: "Give it to me!"
As he spoke, he gave Su Wan a direct and scrutinizing look.
It has to be said that the woman in front of him is very beautiful and has a very feminine charm. No wonder Shen Baiyan took a liking to her.
"Are you the owner of this shop?" Jiang Jinyu's first question was somewhat unexpected.
Su Wan smiled and nodded: "Yes."
Shen Baiyan looked at her sharply: "Are you Shen Baiyan's woman?"
Su Wan paused, puzzled as to why Jiang Jinyu would say such a thing, but she didn't show it. She continued to smile and said, "Mr. Jiang, this is our store's service package. Please take a look."
As Su Wan spoke, she picked up a menu and handed it to Jiang Jinyu.
Jiang Jinyu glanced at the menu that Su Wan handed him, but did not reach out to take it.
He didn't believe in the concept of 'soul exchange' at all, thinking it was a scam. His purpose in coming here today was to get Gu Chu to agree to a secret marriage with him, and to expose the scam.
After a moment of silence, Jiang Jinyu said, "Let's have a trial package."
"Okay, our trial package is called 'Temporary Spiritual Experience' and lasts for one day. During the opening period, everything is 20% off. The trial package, which was originally priced at 10,000, is only 8,000. Do you think this price is acceptable?"
Since it was the first order after opening, Su Wan provided very warm and thoughtful service, even more polite than e-commerce customer service.
Jiang Jinyu disliked this kind of time-wasting rhetoric. He said in a deep voice, "Price is not a problem. My time is precious. Let's begin!"
Su Wan smiled brightly as always: "Okay, may I ask if it's the spirit of the person in question or someone close to you?"
"You're so long-winded, just say it all at once." Jiang Jinyu was losing patience.
Su Wan forced herself to continue: "I'm sorry, but the soul transfer requires two people born on the same day, month, and year to voluntarily sign a blood pact."
Jiang Jinyu turned around and said to the two men standing behind him, "Go, do as she says."
The two men nodded respectfully in unison, "Yes!"
Su Wan got up and led the two men into the ritual room inside.
Gu Chu carried the brewed tea to Jiang Jinyu and said, "President Jiang, please have some tea!"
As she spoke, she gently placed the teacup in her hand in front of Jiang Jinyu.
