Gu Fanyan pulled Lin Zhibai to a corner, pushed it open, and there was another door leading directly to the side staircase.
"Sister, how come you are so familiar with my office?" Lin Zhibai asked in surprise.
Gu Fanyan didn't speak.
She had always known about his penchant for doing bad things.
Gu Fanyan pulled him to the back alley of the company building.
It's very quiet here; usually, no one comes here.
"Tell me, where did you hide Sheng Nanyin and Zeze?" she asked.
Lin Zhibai looked surprised: "Sheng Nanyin? Why are you asking me this?"
"Stop pretending in front of me." Gu Fanyan frowned. "You have a fiancée and a child now. I don't want to use the old methods to interrogate you anymore."
Lin Zhibai was even more puzzled: "I really don't know."
Gu Fanyan continued, "You wouldn't want Yun Wanqing to see us meeting in private, would you?"
"It has nothing to do with Yun Wanqing, I really don't know." Lin Zhibai shrugged and spread his hands.
This is a sure thing they're going to refuse to say anything.
Gu Fanyan bit her lip. "Then who do you think would know about this?"
Lin Zhibai thought for a moment: "Isn't Murong Mo quite capable? I believe it shouldn't be a problem for him to find someone for you."
His eyes were full of provocation.
Gu Fanyan understood; she was holding back her anger.
"Lin Zhibai," she reached out and gently took his tie, a flirtatious smile on her face, "what's this, are you jealous?"
In Lin Zhibai's eyes, something was slowly crumbling.
She was very good at exploiting his weaknesses.
Lin Zhibai clenched his fists tightly in secret, feeling quite pathetic.
Even if it's just once, it would be good.
He sneered: "Jealous? Not at all. I think Murong Mo is just putting on a show. When it comes to real things, he might not be able to satisfy my sister any better than I am."
He was deliberately mocking her.
He would be smug if she showed even the slightest interest.
"You know?" she said casually. "On this point, I have more authority to speak than you do."
"You've tried it?" Lin Zhibai raised an eyebrow.
"Want to know?" Gu Fanyan chuckled. "Let's make an exchange. You tell me where Sheng Nanyin is, and I can tell you all the details of our bed..."
Before he could finish speaking, he suddenly pulled her close, and the two of them were immediately pressed together.
His face loomed sharply above her eyes. "Gu Fanyan, you really have no taste!"
Gu Fanyan didn't care, "Even you, I can do it, isn't Murong Mo much better than you..."
His handsome face suddenly lowered, swallowing the last words she uttered...
He used tremendous force.
The pain made her head buzz.
Needless to say, her lips must be swollen.
But she remained silent and resolutely refused to beg for mercy.
"What are you doing!" Suddenly, a shrill female voice rang out.
He still hasn't let go.
Her head suddenly exploded with a "boom".
She recognized the voice as Lin's mother's.
She pushed Lin Zhibai away and, without thinking, slapped him across the face.
Lin Zhibai's face was turned to the side by her.
"Gu Fanyan!" Lin's mother's voice became even shriller as she rushed to Lin Zhibai's side.
She wasn't the only one who came; Yun Wanqing was also there.
As Yun Wanqing walked past Gu Fanyan, she made a point of exchanging glances with her.
His eyes held undisguised contempt and smugness.
"Zhibai, are you alright?" Lin's mother asked her son first, then turned to Gu Fanyan and launched an attack: "Gu Fanyan, did you not have anyone to teach you anything? You resort to violence at the drop of a hat!"
Gu Fanyan said coldly, "Aunt Lin, you must have seen it just now, it was your son who was pestering me."
Lin's mother put on a stern face: "Really? But I heard that you were the one who suggested that you talk to Zhibai alone?"
As she spoke, a mocking look appeared on her face: "Gu Fanyan, I've already seen what you're capable of back then."
What's the point of arguing about these things now?
“Auntie,” Yun Wanqing suddenly asked, “What did Sister Fanyan do back then?”
Lin's mother gave a soft hum, her face full of an expression of "unable to say it".
Yun Wanqing looked at Lin Zhibai again, "Brother Zhibai, what exactly is going on between you and Sister Fanyan?"
She put on a completely innocent face: "How come I never knew this before... I didn't ruin things between you two, did I...?"
Lin Zhibai reached out and pulled her into his arms. "It's nothing, just a little misunderstanding," he said in a soft voice. "Take good care of yourself and don't overthink it."
He said it was just a small misunderstanding back then.
very nice.
Gu Fanyan raised her eyes and looked at Yun Wanqing: "Remember Lin Zhibai's words. If I come to see him again in the future, you don't need to make a fuss."
Lin's mother frowned: "You're going to come looking for him again? I won't allow it!"
Gu Fanyan smiled and said, "You can say that to the people who manage the businesses of the Gu and Lin families. As long as the two families still have business dealings, Lin Zhibai and I will meet again."
"Don't overthink it," Lin Zhibai gently comforted Yun Wanqing. "The only things Fan Yan and I can talk about now, besides business, are things between friends..."
As he spoke, he deliberately glanced at Gu Fanyan, his eyes filled with interest.
These words were said intentionally for Gu Fanyan to hear.
He knew exactly where Sheng Nanyin was.
Gu Fanyan made a note of it and turned to leave.
Lin's mother angrily called Lin Zhibai into the car and scolded him privately.
"I don't care about you for a day, and you cause trouble. Why do you still want to see her? Didn't she hurt you enough back then?!"
Lin Zhibai reclined in his chair, nonchalantly saying, "Mom, I haven't forgotten the lesson I learned back then, so please don't worry about me."
"There's an auction in a couple of days, with lots of valuable jewelry. I'll have my assistant take you there to choose some..."
"Don't interrupt," Lin's mother said sternly. "I've pretended not to know what you've been up to all these years, but Gu Fanyan is my bottom line. If you dare to get involved with her again, you're just trying to drive me crazy!"
"How could I possibly make you angry? There's no one better than Mom in the world." Lin Zhibai tilted her head and leaned on her mother's shoulder.
Lin's mother doted on her son the most, and her anger subsided by half. "Son, now that Yun Wanqing is carrying your child, you should settle down."
Lin Zhibai smiled: "Does Mom like this daughter-in-law?"
"As long as it's not Gu Fanyan, I can accept it!"
Lin Zhibai's eyes dimmed slightly, but a smile still lingered on his lips. "Don't worry, I promise to be a dutiful son."
Lin Zhibai got out of the car, and Yun Wanqing, who was waiting nearby, immediately went to greet him.
"Brother Zhibai, I didn't mean to..." she wanted to explain why she was in this back alley.
“Mom told me everything,” Lin Zhibai shook his head, “You did nothing wrong. Besides, you’re now a protected species in the Lin family, so even if you do something wrong, no one will blame you.”
Yun Wanqing smiled sweetly, "Brother Zhibai, you're so good to me."
"Wanqing, get in the car, come with me to the mall."
Lin's mother was worried that she wasn't getting enough nutrition, so she took her shopping.
Lin Zhibai returned to his office and called his assistant, "Why did my mother come?"
"It came suddenly," the assistant replied nervously. "We tried to stop them, but we couldn't, and we didn't dare to use force..."
