Chapter 161: Testing, the Accident Two Years Ago
It only took a moment for Jian Mo to look away... She didn't want Chu Zixiao to misunderstand, nor did she want to get angry with Gu Beichen because of this.
"Yes." Gu Beichen responded with a faint smile on his thin lips, and then stepped forward with Jian Mo.
Jian Mo felt that there was something strange between the two people. After looking at Gu Beichen's stern profile, she looked at Chu Zixiao... and met his eyes that were looking at her deeply.
Jian Mo was startled, she quickly closed her eyes and entered the house with Gu Beichen as if nothing had happened.
There are only two families at this birthday party today, and everyone has a tacit understanding of their purpose...
Gu Ci asked Gu Beichen to bring Jian Mo to the house, so naturally he wouldn't invite anyone else... They all knew that Gu Beichen's wife was Jian Mo, and Gu Beichen didn't want to make it public!
Jian Mo ate quietly, as usual.
Jian Mo couldn't figure it out. Gu Ci and Chu Tian Qin knew clearly that they couldn't get any favors from Gu Beichen, so why did they still imagine that Gu Beichen would relent?
However, this has nothing to do with her. She just needs to eat well and find a balance between Chu Zixiao and Gu Beichen.
After the meal, Gu Ci took Jian Mo's hand and said, "I went to France two days ago and saw a perfume that suited you very well, so I bought it back... I'll take you to get it."
Jian Mo nodded generously, then looked at Gu Beichen and said, "Sister and I will go up to get the perfume first."
Gu Beichen nodded, but Chu Zixiao's eyes dimmed...
Such a title once again stung Chu Zixiao's heart. The suffocating feeling that his lover was clearly in front of him, but there was an unbridgeable gap in the middle affected his emotions.
"As a lawyer," Gu Beichen's calm voice came faintly, "self-control is the most basic thing."
Chu Zixiao retracted his gaze from Jian Mo, glanced at Gu Beichen and then stood up, "You and dad have something to talk about, I'm going out first..." After saying this, he turned around calmly.
Chu Tianqin didn't notice anything was wrong with Chu Zixiao. After he went out, he said to Gu Beichen: "Gu Ci transferred the Emperor's shares to Zixiao this time. That was Dad's intention... Beichen, don't blame you. Sister."
Gu Beichen's thin lips curved slightly, but he said nothing.
Because Gu Beichen was the son of veteran Gu Mo, Chu Tianqin was twenty years older than him.
Now that he is middle-aged and has been in the business world for half his life, Chu Tianqin always feels that he has lost some momentum every time he faces Gu Beichen.
"In any case, the Chu family helped the emperor in the beginning, but now..." Chu Tianqin said hesitantly.
The smile at the corner of Gu Beichen's mouth deepened a little, but that smile was always frozen at the corner of his mouth and never spread.
"That day when we were talking about shares, the eldest sister was talking about this matter." Gu Beichen's cold eyes deepened, "Now...my brother-in-law has changed his way of speaking again."
Chu Tianqin felt a little scared when he saw Gu Beichen's indifferent eyes...
"Why," Gu Beichen exclaimed, "Brother-in-law, do you think that matter can really affect the emperor? Or is it me?"
"..." Upon hearing this, Chu Tianqin hurriedly said, "That's not what I meant! Beichen, I..."
"I won't help the Chu family this time. As I said, if you have the ability...the emperor welcomes you!" Gu Beichen forced Chu Tianqin's words back with one sentence, and then stood up, "The Chu family's hole cannot be The emperor always pays the bill!" He glanced sideways at Chu Tianqin, then walked out with one hand in his pocket.
Chu Tianqin's face was solemn, he opened and closed his mouth several times, but did not speak again.
Everyone knows that Gu Beichen wants to devour the Chu family, and has been holding back for two years... It's not that he doesn't know.
only……
Chu Tian and Qin's eyes dimmed. After all, the Chu family was his hard work. If he had to...he wouldn't mind using Yujing Lakeside to talk things over!
In the bedroom, Jian Mo took the perfume and smelled it. She liked it very much...at least, she liked it on the surface.
"Xiao Jian..." Gu Ci said, "How are you and Beichen doing lately?"
"It's okay." Jian Mo said, with sweet emotions overflowing from her eyes.
It was pretending before, but this time it was from the bottom of my heart...
When Gu Ci saw it, her heart turned and she said, "I heard... you wanted to participate in the design of the Emperor's Club, and Beichen made an exception for you?"
When this matter was mentioned, Jian Mo felt a little hesitant and wanted to refute...but it was the truth.
Seeing that Jian Mo acquiesced, Gu Ci smiled and sat down next to her, "Xiao Jian, no matter what... the Chu family and the emperor are also relatives. Although this project involves a lot, it is still safe to leave it to someone of your own. no?"
Jian Mo heard what Gu Ci meant and didn't say anything. She just nodded with her lips raised.
"Beichen is special to you. I will talk to your brother-in-law later... huh?"
Jian Mo said "haha", "Sister, it's not like you don't know what Ah Chen's temper is like... He's very principled and you won't even listen to me, let alone me."
"Don't belittle yourself..." Gu Ci took Jian Mo's hand, "We are all one family. If we don't help, who will?"
Jian Mo looked at Gu Ci's expectant eyes and didn't refuse anymore... she just agreed without hesitation.
It was obvious that something was not going to work out, but Gu Ci and Chu Tianqin were locked in a stalemate like this...
Jian Mo doesn't understand that it's just a project, as if this project is related to the Chu family's life and death? Moreover, for some reason, Jian Mo always felt that things were not as simple as they seemed.
Chu Zixiao stood in front of a field of chrysanthemums in full bloom in the deserted garden. "Have you finished talking?" He saw Gu Beichen's serious face and smiled lightly. "Dad, are you talking about something that happened two years ago?"
Gu Beichen frowned, "How did you know?"
"Why shouldn't I know?" Chu Zixiao smiled, with a calm face and no extra expression, "I just feel that... Emperor is so big, but someone needs to take the blame for the incident at Yujing Lake."
A tentative emotion flashed through his eyes...
Tang Yu joined the Chu Lawyers' Group, and the information he gave him last time was inconsistent again... Two years ago, was the Chu family responsible for the incident at Yujing Lake or was Emperor the mastermind behind it?
If I remember correctly... when the accident happened, Beichen was already the president of Emperor Group!
Gu Beichen frowned slightly: "Do you think you have another bargaining chip to negotiate with me?"
"Beichen..." Chu Zixiao shouted, his eyes looking far ahead, "Chu, I don't care! I don't care about the 5% of Emperor's shares... I don't even care about your things, I only want Jian Mo!"
As he finished speaking, Chu Zixiao tilted his head to look at Gu Beichen...
He didn't know if his uncle knew about the relationship between Jian Mo and Jian Zhanfeng. He thought... If he knew, the wife would definitely not be Jian Mo?
Gu Beichen raised his thin lips slightly, "I also said that whether Jian Mo and I divorce or not, shares are not a condition for exchange."
"Really?" Chu Zixiao turned around, his eyes inadvertently passed Gu Beichen and looked at Jian Mo who was walking over, "So... Jian Mo is more important than shares?"
Gu Beichen's eagle eyes were slightly cold, and he didn't answer!
The two things are not in the same direction, so how can it be important or not?
Chu Zixiao pretended not to notice Jian Mo and asked, "Let's not talk about this..." He paused for a moment and asked cryptically, "What if we just talk about what happened at Yujing Lake two years ago?"
Jian Mo's steps suddenly stopped. Yujing Lake two years ago?
Her mind froze, and she looked at Gu Beichen eagerly with her eyes, and even her breathing became condensed because of nervousness...
