"I want you to do me a favor." Gu Ci didn't keep the secret any longer and said it directly.
Fu Chen frowned, his expression immediately showing displeasure. "I've already said it last time. They've broken up, and our cooperation has ended. Don't contact each other again. Whatever you want to do with Pei Sui has nothing to do with me. We each rely on our own abilities."
Having said that, he stood up and prepared to leave.
"They're broken up now, but what if they get back together after a while? Are you so sure they won't get back together? After all this effort, are you willing to just fail in the end?"
Gu Ci looked at his back and raised her voice to ask him. When she saw him pause, the corners of her lips curled up slightly and her voice became slow and steady. "When I treated everyone in the art gallery to dinner last night, I ran into Asui. You should know how close they are..."
"so what?"
Fu Chen interrupted her calmly.
Gu Ci paused, and the light in her eyes gradually dimmed.
Fu Chen is indeed not an obedient collaborator.
It really takes a lot of effort to convince him, and she had prepared these words in advance.
I didn't waste any time talking and just focused on the key points that he cared about.
But his reaction now was indeed within her expectations.
The plan she had in mind was actually best to have Fu Chen to cooperate with her. He didn't need to help too much, just help delay Meng Sheng for a while.
But he disagreed, and she couldn't say anything. She couldn't just break up with him.
Not worth it.
She weighed this in her mind, but didn't feel disappointed. She smiled lightly and said softly, "Okay, if you don't want to, I can't force you."
Fu Chen glanced at her sideways, his gentle and calm eyes falling on her pale face.
I just reminded him, "You should know my bottom line."
Gu Ci nodded and smiled, "Well, I know, don't worry."
Fu Chen simply withdrew his gaze and left the ward.
As she watched his figure disappear at the door, the smile on her face faded.
The smile in his eyes disappeared.
After a long time, she took a deep breath and sat back on the sofa.
But my mind still couldn't calm down.
That feeling of irritability and unwillingness always lingered in her heart.
After a moment, she stood up and walked to the desk, picked up the brush again, dipped it in ink, and continued practicing calligraphy, trying to calm her mind.
Not long after, the ripples in my heart gradually calmed down.
The originally chaotic brain gradually became clear.
She paused with the pen in her hand and began to think about how to change the original plan to make it more reasonable and smooth.

The scandal about Gu Yuan was not completely cleared until the third day, but the impact had already been caused. Not to mention on the Internet, at least it had spread thoroughly in the wealthy circles of Beijing, and almost every household was discussing it.
As Meng Sheng had expected, this incident also affected Gu Ci to some extent.
To be precise, it affected everyone in the Gu family.
On the day the hot search was removed, Gu Ci's cousin's marriage was cancelled with great fanfare, which once again pushed the Gu family to the top of the hot search.
Various other unfavorable rumors also spread one after another, all of which were related to the family tradition of the Gu family and its integrity and moral character.
Ninety percent of this was the dirty water thrown by Gu's sworn enemies who took advantage of the chaos. Even if they explained it one by one, they would never be able to finish explaining it.
They all knew that someone was deliberately taking advantage of their misfortune and kicking someone when they were down, but they really didn't have the time to deal with it now. The affairs of the company's major industries alone were enough to keep them busy and dizzy.
The stocks of the Gu family group fell by millions and tens of millions in just a few days, especially the Gu Culture Media Co., Ltd., which lost hundreds of millions in just two or three days.
The chain reactions caused by this report caused the Gu family to suffer greatly.
Moreover, the popularity of these things has been continuous. It is not possible to be safe once the hot searches are removed. After all, there are thousands of mouths, and how can you stop them?
Meng Sheng has been watching dramas online these days and even joined a group of celebrities in the circle.
She actually rarely attends this kind of party, but if there is a rich girl with good connections, she will give her face and show up.
She was not disappointed. After the atmosphere at the table warmed up, some people brought up the Gu family. Most of them were sarcastic and disdainful, as well as having an attitude of watching the show.
Some people also mentioned Gu Ci, but because of her poor health since childhood, she rarely appears in the public eye.
When talking about Gu Qinglian, some people rolled their eyes to the sky.
I think with Gu Qinglian's personality, he must have offended quite a few people.
How normal.
It would be strange if Gu Qinglian didn't offend anyone.
Two days later, the foreign expert that Fu Chen invited for her father came to the hospital to give Meng Chengli a basic examination. Based on the examination list, he also gave two more feasible treatment plans, which were also approved and adopted by Fu Chen and another attending physician.
That afternoon, we officially started preliminary systemic treatment.
On the 6th, Fang Zhiman and Kong Junyang held their wedding banquet, and there was also a large thank-you banquet the next day.
The venue was chosen to be the Splendido International Hotel, a Kong family business.
At around 9:30 that morning, Meng Sheng walked out of the door carrying a few gift boxes that she had prepared in advance. When the elevator door slowly opened, she just took a step and noticed the tall and slender figure standing inside.
Both of them were beaten.
This was the second time they met by chance after their breakup.
The first time was in a parking lot.
Meng Sheng had thought about this situation before. After all, they lived in the same community and the same building, so it was normal to meet each other.
She pursed her lips, quickly concealing the ripples in her eyes, and spoke calmly, "You...are out so late today?"
Pei Sui's eyes twitched slightly, his Adam's apple rolled, and he uttered a low, hoarse "hmm," "I'm just about to go to the east of the city."
Meng Sheng was stunned for a moment, and suddenly remembered that the Kong family and the Pei family seemed to have always had business dealings and cooperation.
It seems that he is going to attend a wedding banquet.
Pei Sui noticed what she was carrying, and his heart skipped a beat. "Are you going to the east of the city too?"
"Um."
Meng Sheng agreed, and seeing that the elevator door was about to close, she stepped in first.
Pei Sui asked, "Are you coming back after attending the wedding banquet tonight, or after attending the thank-you banquet tomorrow?"
Meng Sheng replied, "Tomorrow."
She actually wanted to come back directly after attending the wedding banquet today, but Fang Zhiman told her about the thank-you banquet two days ago and asked her to stay and attend.
It was hard to refuse such a kind invitation, and Fang Zhiman had previously wanted to invite her to be a bridesmaid, but she declined.
Fang Zhiman doesn't care about divorce, but that doesn't mean others don't care. If she does it, someone will definitely use it to poke holes in the Fang family's spine in the future.
This is what Meng Sheng least wants to see.
And, most importantly, she didn't want Fang Zhiman and Kong Junyang to blame her for any problems in their marriage in the future. Then she would really have no way to explain herself.
Never test human nature.
She wants to eliminate this risk.
