A coffee shop.
After getting out of the ride-hailing car, Gu Fan looked at the storefront in front of him and remained silent for a moment.
Just half an hour ago, he received a call from an unknown number. The caller was a woman who specifically asked him to come here to meet her.
Gu Fan didn't know the other person at first, but when the other person mentioned the flower shop, Gu Fan knew that the mastermind had come to his door.
Without refusing, he left the party and came here.
"Senior, let's go in," Jiang Yumeng said from the side.
Yes, she came along too.
She could tell that her senior was hiding something from her, so she followed him despite his objections.
Gu Fan had no choice but to bring her along.
On the way here, Gu Fan finally told Jiang Yumeng the truth.
As the two entered the coffee shop, they saw a wealthy woman sitting in a window seat not far away.
Behind her stood two burly men dressed in black.
Gu Fan narrowed his eyes slightly. If he wasn't mistaken, the two burly men in black were also two of the people who smashed the shop.
He pulled Jiang Yumeng over and sat down calmly in front of the wealthy woman.
The two men in black behind the lady frowned, seemingly displeased with Gu Fan's behavior.
The wealthy woman looked at Gu Fan calmly, sizing him up: "You're Gu Fan?"
Gu Fan nodded: "You must be Madam Li?"
The lady was taken aback, then asked in surprise, "How did you know?"
Gu Fan said calmly, "You and Sister Qiu Xiang are somewhat similar."
Madam Li narrowed her eyes slightly: "Are you very familiar with my daughter?"
Gu Fan said, "We are friends."
Madam Li raised an eyebrow and looked at the other person seriously, somewhat surprised.
The other party was just a young man in his early twenties, yet he was so calm in front of me. Knowing my aura, plus the two bodyguards behind me, most people would have been nervous long ago.
That's interesting.
"So, you've also played a part in my daughter's going abroad?" Madam Li said calmly.
Gu Fan frowned: "Madam Li, you should know why Sister Qiuxiang went abroad."
Madam Li's lips curled slightly: "Are you accusing me?"
Gu Fan said calmly, "Although I don't know the details of your relationship, from what I understand, Sister Qiu Xiang was forced into this situation by you. You wanted to use a marriage alliance to bind her; anyone would probably resist."
Upon hearing this, Madam Li's face immediately darkened.
“Gu Fan, this is our family matter. You are an outsider and have no right to interfere.”
Gu Fan said calmly, "I didn't interfere. I was just expressing my opinion. Qiu Xiang's decision to go abroad is her own choice and has nothing to do with us."
He paused, then added, "But Madam Li, if I may ask, why did you smash up my shop?"
Madam Li raised an eyebrow: "Your shop? Ha, isn't that my daughter's?"
She seemed fearless and did not deny that she had ordered the shop to be vandalized. In her view, what did it matter if her daughter's shop was vandalized? With her background, she was not afraid of the police or compensation. She could buy ten thousand of these kinds of shops.
Gu Fan calmly said, "That was before. Now, this shop belongs to me and another girl."
Madam Li frowned: "What do you mean?"
"What I mean is, before Sister Qiuxiang went abroad, she had already handed the shop over to us, and the transfer contract is still available. So, shouldn't you apologize for smashing my shop without any explanation?" Gu Fan said forcefully.
"Boy, who do you think you are? How dare you speak to Madam like that?" Madam Li's bodyguard stared coldly at Gu Fan.
Gu Fan glanced at him indifferently.
"Who is she? Why can't you talk to her like that, senior?" At this moment, a clear voice rang out, and it was Jiang Yumeng who hadn't spoken until now.
After listening for a while, she realized that the other party had gone too far, daring to bully her man.
Regardless of right or wrong, anyone who dares to bully the senior is bullying Jiang Yumeng, and is bullying the Jiang family!
Madam Li then noticed Jiang Yumeng, and her eyes showed a hint of amazement.
This girl is so beautiful, but what surprised her was the undeniable aristocratic air about her; she must have come from a very distinguished background.
"Who are you?"
Jiang Yumeng pouted: "Jiang Yumeng."
"Surname Jiang? You're from the prestigious Jiang family?" Madam Li frowned, then asked with some shock.
There are many Jiang families in Beijing, but only a few have truly entered the circle of the wealthy.
The most powerful of all was the Jiang family, one of the five great families of the capital.
Jiang Yumeng's dimples appeared on her cheeks: "If you're talking about the Jiang family, then yes, that's me."
Gu Fan didn't expect Jiang Yumeng to speak up, but he was also somewhat surprised, as Madam Li seemed to be very wary of the Jiang family.
Could it be that Old Jiang's family is not as simple as he imagined?
Madam Li scrutinized Jiang Yumeng, thinking to herself that this young girl looked quite young, but her tone was rather arrogant.
However, this also made her somewhat wary; if it really was the Jiang family, then things would be troublesome.
"Who is Jiang Yuntian to you?"
Jiang Yumeng asked in surprise, "You know my dad?"
Madam Li: ...
Sure enough, the other party was undoubtedly a member of the Jiang family.
In that case, it seems we won't be able to give them a warning today.
The Jiang family is several levels stronger than the Li family. To put it simply, the Li family is only a second-rate family in the capital, while the Jiang family is a top-tier family.
After a pause, Madam Li looked at Gu Fan with a strange expression: "What is the relationship between you two?"
