Chapter 22 Chapter 22 (Revised) (1/2)



twenty two

"What's wrong?" Ye Rong didn't know what was hitting his funny bone for a moment.

At this moment, Gu Weisheng's beautiful peach blossom eyes curved softly, a smile spread from the bottom of his eyes, and the blush at the end of his eyes was stained with a relaxed mood. It was neither a half-smile that made people feel uneasy, nor a sarcastic sarcasm, nor was it the flawless gentle mask when facing people.

Well, it really made me laugh.

Ye Rong looked at him stupidly. She rarely saw him relaxed. Most of the time, he looked unpredictable, either cold or gentle.

Anyway, it's rare to see him like this.

Moreover, it is really beautiful, but unfortunately it is short-lived.

Gu Weisheng controlled his emotions very well. When he looked up again, his face regained its usual calmness. He looked at Ye Rong, whose expression was dull, and said with some emotion, "Seeing you so sunny and happy, I feel that there is some truth in the saying that fools have good fortune."

Stupid, stupid people have good fortune?

Ye Rong was stunned for a moment. Although there was no ill intention, she felt that he was not praising me.

Ye Rong knew very well that the boss would never praise others. His praise was no different from being sarcastic. Fortunately, she was broad-minded and didn't care at all.

"Thank you." Ye Rong happily accepted his compliment, and then moved the walnut in her hand closer to him, "Then help me crack the walnut?"

"..." Gu Weisheng looked at her, then really took the walnut from her hand, applied a little force with his fingers, and the walnut cracked into several cracks.

Putting the walnut in her palm, Ye Rong smiled and said, "Thank you!"

The satisfaction of harvesting hard-earned walnuts is different. She peeled the walnuts and did not forget to share half of the fruits of victory with the other party: "Would you like to try it? Walnuts are good for the brain and have many benefits."

Gu Weisheng looked at the fruit in her palm and looked at her with a half-smile: "Then you have to eat more."

Ye Rong: “…”

Why should I dig a hole for myself without thinking clearly?

Ye Rong was eating the walnuts, they were so delicious. Never mind, she forgave him for the sake of the walnuts.

The Gu family's party lasted until the afternoon, and everyone began to prepare to leave one after another. At this moment, Ye Rong actually felt a sense of joy at getting off work.

Before leaving, everyone had to say goodbye to Mr. Gu.

Ye Rong had wanted to go for a long time, so she stood up and said, "Gu Weisheng, let's go too."

Gu Weisheng nodded: "Yeah."

So the two of them stood up and prepared to say goodbye to Mr. Gu, and soon they saw Assistant Sun.

"Master Weisheng, Miss Ye, the chairman is a little tired. Can I take you two there?"

Gu Weisheng looked at Assistant Sun and smiled gently, "No need. Assistant Sun, please tell Grandpa that Ye Rong and I will leave first. I will come to visit him often when I have the chance in the future."

“…Okay.” Although Assistant Sun felt that there was nothing wrong with what he said, it seemed to have a different meaning when the other party said it. Perhaps he was overthinking it again.

After watching Gu Weisheng and Ye Rong walk away, Assistant Sun turned around and went back to the study.

"Chairman, Master Weisheng has left with Miss Ye." Assistant Sun also noticed that the chairman looked different today. As the chairman's confidant, he naturally thought of Gu Weisheng and couldn't help but ask, "What did Master Weisheng say? You don't look very well today..."

...said something.

Old Master Gu suddenly remembered the indifferent and gentle look of Gu Weisheng when he walked into the study. For a moment, he couldn't tell whether his words were a test or something else.

"I'm here to get something my mother left for me."

-

In the car, Ye Rong casually placed the shawl in her hand on the seat.

This time, Gu Zhi did not ride in the same car with the two of them. Besides the driver, there was only a bodyguard.

I thought coming to Gu's house was just a simple meal, but I didn't expect it to be so tiring.

I don't know if it's Ye Rong's illusion, but I always feel that when Grandpa Gu faces Gu Weisheng, his attitude is subtly different. It's definitely not the kind of relationship between grandfather and grandson, but an indescribable sense of disharmony.

Ye Rong looked at Gu Weisheng. He looked the same as when he came, showing no emotion.

From this family gathering of the Gu family, Ye Rong also discovered that Gu Weisheng was really not close to these relatives. The uncles, aunts, and cousins ​​of the same generation were basically no different from strangers.

But after all, Gu Weisheng hadn't been here for almost ten years, and they hadn't been in touch in the meantime, so it was understandable that their relationship was a little distant.

But what Ye Rong was concerned about was that when they faced Gu Weisheng, they even had some concerns that they themselves were not aware of.

What are they worried about?

It was hard for Ye Rong to not think about what roles these people played in what happened to Gu Weisheng ten years ago.

Ten years ago, Gu Weisheng suffered humiliation and unfair treatment. How cruel it was for a 14-year-old boy who had just suffered the pain of losing a parent and had to endure the pain of physical disability.

Not to mention that after the accident, Gu Weisheng encountered a bullying incident after entering the campus, and Gu's father's behavior was incomprehensible. The fact that he sent Gu Weisheng to a small island overseas and ignored him for ten years is worth pondering.

Ye Rong had read the NSI intelligence file carefully.

About Gu Weisheng's parents Weisheng Ran, the only daughter of the Weisheng family, doted on by her father, and trained as the heir of the Weisheng family since she was a child. Ye Rong has seen Weisheng Ran's photos, and she is a real beauty and one of the founders of Huarong. Because of her, the Gu family is the Gu family today. In short, Weisheng Ran is really beautiful and strong.

Before the accident, Wei Shengran was preparing to divorce Gu Huaqing, but who could have thought that the accident would come so suddenly.

Originally, there was no doubt that Gu Weisheng was the heir.

But after Wei Shengran encountered the accident, everything changed. Everything that originally belonged to Gu Weisheng seemed to have disappeared. No one in the entire Gu family stood behind Gu Weishengran, and everyone chose to remain silent.

If Ye Rong hadn't read the electronic files of the accident, it would have been hard for her not to have some conspiracy theories.

Ye Rong was curious about what Gu Weisheng had said to Mr. Gu, but it was obvious that Gu Weisheng came here for this purpose.

I always feel that this should be related to his next move.

If Gu Weisheng just used ordinary means to bring down the Gu family, she would not worry about anything. Maybe it was because she still remembered the plot of the book, so she felt that things should not be that simple.

Gu Weisheng's experience, if he wanted to take away everything that belonged to him, it would not be surprising. But for Gu Weisheng, he had no interest in these things, and he preferred to destroy them rather than take them away.

Moreover, during this period of time, not only did the Gu family not encounter any problems, but the stock market was also booming.

No matter how you look at it, it doesn't look like a pill.

Ye Rong unconsciously glanced at Gu Weisheng who was sitting opposite her with his eyes closed. It seemed that she had noticed something. Gu Weisheng just happened to open his eyes:

"Do you like staring at me so much when you are asleep?"

"...I just took a look." Ye Rong said innocently, "and I didn't pay attention."

She only looked at it after she was fully focused!

"What are you looking at me for?"

"..." Ye Rong looked into the other person's soft eyes and blurted out, "Of course it's because it's beautiful."

Hearing this, he glanced at her indifferently: "But isn't 'Mei' Miss Ye?"

Ye Rong blinked and continued, "Isn't it true that I can't see my own face?"

Gu Weisheng looked at her, seemingly overwhelmed by her "beauty and self-awareness". Finally, he pulled up the corners of his mouth and smiled: "Ms. Ye always surprises people."

Seeing him looking as if he was about to laugh or not, Ye Rong was not panicked at all.

Although she didn't know what Gu Weisheng was going to do next, in a sense, there was a country behind him, so she didn't want to think too complicatedly.

Therefore, Ye Rong decided to take a nap after leaving.

You know what, this time the Gu family's family gathering was comparable to a social event, and it was quite tiring.

The car slowly stopped in front of the dark gray and purple villa.

"Master Weisheng, Miss Ye, you are here." The housekeeper came forward and looked at Gu Weisheng: "Master Weisheng, there is a guest looking for you."

Gu Weisheng didn't look surprised at all. He nodded slightly and went upstairs.

Ye Rong covered her lips with her hands, yawned, and followed him upstairs.

In the living room upstairs, besides Tang Zhe, Gu Weisheng's doctor friend whom he had met before, there was another older man who had a temperament a bit like a lawyer.

She didn't know if it was her illusion, but she always felt that the doctor named Tang Zhe looked at her with a little surprise and confusion, and the look he gave Gu Weisheng was a little complicated, as if she really had become the enchanting concubine who bewitched Gu Weisheng.

Ye Rong was shocked by her own imagination. Without waiting for Tang Zhe to speak, she said to Gu Weisheng beside her, "You guys chat. I'm going to rest."

Then she quickly left.

Ye Rong was still very perceptive. Tang Zhe didn't know that the other person must have important business to see Gu Weisheng.

At times like this, she still has to avoid it.

As soon as Ye Rong left, the man next to Tang Zhe took out a brown paper bag from his briefcase and gave it to Gu Weisheng: "Mr. Gu."

Gu Weisheng took it, confirmed that there was no problem and signed his name.

The visitor took the signed document and left.

In the end, only Tang Zhe and Gu Weisheng were left.

Gu Weisheng took the brown paper bag and went outside to the terrace.

Tang Zhe followed.

After sitting down, Tang Zhe was a little surprised: "I thought you fell in love with that girl."

"..." Gu Weisheng looked at him as if he were a fool, "Brain is a good thing."

Tang Zhe was even more confused. Thinking back to his friend's behavior in the hospital last time, he had never seen him being gentle and considerate to other women. However, he still chose to believe his friend: "Then you still keep Wang Qiuman by your side. Aren't you afraid that she will do something bad?"

"..." Gu Weisheng half covered his eyes, "She won't hinder me at the moment. She and Wang Qiuman are just courting disaster."

Tang Zhe was surprised: "Seeking the skin of a tiger?"

Gu Weisheng said indifferently: "She wants to get away with it, why should I help Wang Qiuman solve the problem?"

"I really can't tell!" Tang Zhe thought of the fairy-like girl, who was not very old and didn't seem to have any scheming. Was she even able to fool Wang Qiuman? But after thinking about it, Tang Zhe was even more worried: "I wanted to ask before, she cooperated with Wang Qiuman, definitely in exchange for money and resources, but until now she seems... not to have officially come out, right? Does she really want to be a celebrity?"

"This is also what I can't understand." Perhaps by some strange coincidence, Gu Weisheng mentioned the bottle of medicine that Ye Rong took from Wang Qiuman when she first arrived at Gu's house, and then briefly mentioned what happened on the wheel and the jewel necklace. "What she showed was inconsistent with her personality. Although I don't know her true purpose, I just..."

But Tang Zhe was shocked after hearing this. Seeing the genuine confusion on his friend's face, this guy is really single! Tang Zhe couldn't wait to explain: "A woman who treats you well for no reason must have some ulterior motive, money or sex, what do you think she wants?"

"…………" Gu Weisheng pulled himself out of his thoughts and glanced at Tang Zhe calmly, "It's not unreasonable for your uncle to choose your sister as the successor."

"..." Tang Zhe was caught off guard by him and stabbed with a knife. His eyes rolled up to the sky: "I'm really not that kind of person. But when it comes to emotions, I'm a genius!"

Gu Weisheng looked at him indifferently.

Tang Zhe suddenly felt weak: "...I'm single because my destiny hasn't arrived yet. Don't you care?"

After saying that, Tang Zhe also felt that his words were not convincing. Finally, he thought about it and decided to get down to business. So, he brought the topic back to the topic: "You mean her purpose of coming to the Gu family does not conflict with what you want to do?"

Gu Weisheng said, "Hmm," "To be precise, there is no conflict now."

"..." Tang Zhe was stunned. Because he and Gu Weisheng had known each other for such a long time, he could understand what the other person meant most of the time without even using his brain.

There is no conflict now, but there may be a conflict in the future.

Considering Gu Weisheng's methods and his attitude towards the Gu family, it would be an understatement to say that he would do anything to achieve his goal. Tang Zhe had also advised that he could take a gentler approach, although it might not work in his lifetime, and once he made up his mind, there was absolutely no room for maneuver. How should I put it? Now Gu Weisheng looked like a sword with cracks all over it. He would drag those people to hell even if he was shattered to pieces. This was a completely self-destructive way.

Therefore, he didn't care whether his legs could work or not, let alone his position as the heir to the Gu family.

But Tang Zhe didn't understand. Since Ye Rong was not Wang Qiuman's relative, why would she have a conflict with Gu Weisheng?

Tang Zhe could see that his friend treated Ye Rong differently from others, and he almost misunderstood that his friend had fallen into a honey trap. In fact, the atmosphere when these two people were in the same frame had that feeling, and Gu Weisheng's partiality towards Ye Rong made it difficult for him not to misunderstand.

But this does not mean that Gu Weisheng will give up his goal. If Ye Rong comes out to obstruct him at this time, he thinks Gu Weisheng will probably treat him the same way.

However, Tang Zhe still couldn't understand why Ye Rong, since she was not in the same group with Wang Qiuman, should stand against Gu Weisheng.

This is a contradiction.

Tang Zhe couldn't think of anything to say for a moment, so he just asked directly.

As soon as he said this, he saw Gu Weisheng frowned, but he didn't explain what he meant.

“…”

Tang Zhe had no choice but to give up.

After all, if his friend didn't want to talk about it, there was nothing he could do.

When the time was almost up, Tang Zhe remembered something: "The matter you asked me to investigate has made some progress, but don't hold out too much hope. You know it's going to be hard to find the person after ten years." Tang Zhe looked at him. He could actually investigate the matter himself. He didn't know why he had to take such a roundabout way.

"Yeah." Gu Weisheng responded.

Before he left, Tang Zhe suddenly couldn't help asking, "Tell me the truth, if Ye Rong really stood against you, what would you do?"

Gu Weisheng's eyelashes twitched slightly, and he raised his eyelids, with a look of peace and tranquility on his face: "Let's wait and see."

Tang Zhe was stunned for a moment. Look again?

What was the answer? This answer was obviously beyond his expectations.

"..." Tang Zhe looked at Gu Weisheng and suddenly felt that his friend seemed to treat Ye Rong a little differently.

It's just that he himself doesn't seem to realize it.

-

It was already evening when Ye Rong woke up.

She slept so comfortably that she didn't want to get up when she woke up, enjoying the lazy and comfortable aftertaste.

In the evening, the breeze gently blows open the window screen, and the setting sun shines through the glass onto the bed.

The fatigue accumulated from the previous social activities dissipated at once. Ye Rong lay on the bed for a while, reached out to the bedside for her cell phone, and opened the colorful cube on the interface as usual.

On the card belonging to Gu Weisheng, the number displayed on the favorability light ball is still 24.

Ye Rong was not surprised at all. Just like what the observer said, although Gu Weisheng knew that she and Wang Qiuman were not in the same group, she still had impure intentions after all.

Moreover, on the wheel, her character also collapsed, which made her even more uncontrollable in Gu Weisheng's eyes and he could no longer see her.

Gu Weisheng is a deep-minded and suspicious person, so it would be strange if his favorability could increase.

Ye Rong lay on her side on the bed and stretched like a cat. Then she lazily prepared to get up, otherwise she would oversleep and not be able to fall asleep at night.

She simply washed up and changed into her pajamas.

Ye Rong walked out of the room and didn't see Gu Weisheng. When she saw that the door of his room was closed, she knew that he should be resting.

Seeing that it was still early, Ye Rong curled up on the sofa in the living room and continued watching the TV series.

Ye Rong was happily watching the drama here, and Wang Qiuman just heard from Gu Zhi that Ye Rong came here for Gu Weisheng.

After hearing Gu Zhi's words, Wang Qiuman was surprised at first, and then she found it absurd and funny.

She naturally would never have thought that there really was a woman who would fall in love with a man with crippled legs and spend so much time on him.

It is understandable that a 19-year-old girl has unrealistic fantasies about love. Although some things go wrong with the plan, there will basically be no major changes.

When a woman is in love, she has desires in her heart, which are easier to control.

So Wang Qiuman didn't take this matter too seriously.

She looked at her son, and remembered that Mr. Gu didn't look very good before, and her son was following him, so she became a little concerned and asked, "What happened before dinner?"

Thinking of the time when he fell into the pond, Gu Zhi's face showed a trace of anger: "I just said a few words to Ye Rong, but Gu Weisheng was meddling in other people's business... I accidentally lost my balance and fell into the water."

"..." Wang Qiuman frowned inadvertently at these words. Her focus was: "Are you on good terms with Ye Rong?"

"I met her once at a cocktail party in Shengdu when she was not yet Gu Weisheng's fiancée." Gu Zhi did not hide too much from his relatives.

Wang Qiuman seemed to be thinking about something. She knew that her son had many scandals with those female stars in the entertainment industry, but they were all just for fun, so she didn't take it to heart.

But Ye Rong is now Gu Weisheng's fiancée. If she gets too close to his son, it would be too embarrassing if the news gets out.

So, Wang Qiuman looked at her son and said, "You are the future heir of the Gu family. Unlike Gu Weisheng, you should not be easily blinded by cheap things, okay?"

Hearing what his mother said, Gu Zhi was stunned for a moment, then returned to normal: "Don't worry, Mom, I understand."

Wang Qiuman was relieved: "I'm relieved that you can do it."

-

Two days later, in the morning, Ye Rong went to the garden to pick a bunch of flowers. As soon as she came back, she was stopped by Wang Qiuman.

"Ye Rong, come here for a moment."

When Ye Rong saw that it was Wang Qiuman, she suddenly thought of something and followed calmly.

It was not the first time that Ye Rong came to the reception room alone.

It seems like every time I come, something bad is happening.

After Wang Qiuman motioned for her to sit down, she spoke in a warm tone, "I heard from the housekeeper these past two days that Weisheng always goes out alone because he is not feeling well. As his fiancée, why don't you accompany him?"

……?

Ye Rong thought that she would be beaten by Wang Qiuman after she defected to the bandits, but two days passed and she was still living a leisurely and comfortable life as if nothing had happened.

Ye Rong was looking forward to it. She thought Wang Qiuman would regret hiring her.

I didn't expect that you would care about Gu Weisheng at this moment?

What kind of pornography is this?
