nChapter 48 Unexpected Discovery

nGu Chu looked at Gu Wan with a faint smile. “In this world, nothing can be gained without hard work. I’ve been following up on the project all this while. What right do you have to take it? Moreover, do I look like a generous person? So, I’m asking you nicely to withdraw from it.”

nShe emphasized the word “nicely”, hoping that Gu Wan would understand. If she didn’t agree, then she had nothing more to say.

nSo, please don’t challenge her patience!

nGu Wan was panicking. Her mother had got her this project by exchanging conditions with Feng Jia in order to help her gain a foothold in the Gu Corporation. But now, Gu Chu is asking her to let go of it?

nWhat right does she have?!

nShe closed her eyes. She also knew that there was no room for negotiation, so she said, “Okay.”

nSince she agreed, there was nothing else to talk about.

nGu Chu’s gaze fell on her leg. “I think your leg is fine, so you can take a taxi and leave.”

nGu Wan bit her lower lip. She had wanted to ride on Feng Jia’s car. “Also,” Gu Chu added, “Bring the two sisters with you. Although Meng Lang likes to mess around, he’s not stupid. Why don’t you take a look at them first before they seduce him?”

nAfter Gu Wan left, Gu Chu leaned on the back of the sofa and said lazily, “Who’s eavesdropping? Come out!”

nThe room was silent.

nShe said in a low voice, “Why? Do you need me to say it nicely?”.

nA few seconds later, Qiao Qiao came out with a look of embarrassment.

nInitially, she wanted to go after Meng Lang, but she was a step slower and could not catch up.

nLater, she went back and planned to wait for Meng Lang here.

nWhen she returned, the atmosphere was tense.

nSo, she had to find a place to hide.

nShe asked awkwardly, “How did you know I was here?”

n“I accidentally caught a glimpse of the corner of your clothes.”

nQiao Qiao: “…”

nShe was dressed extravagantly, so the hem of her clothes showed.

nShe said, “I’m sorry, I didn’t do it on purpose.”

nGu Chu looked at her with her deep eyes. “Shut your mouth.”

nActually, she didn’t hear much and quickly nodded. “Okay.”

nMoreover, she hated the two girls who came with Gu Wan. Now that Gu Chu had helped her get rid of them, she wanted to thank her instead.

nShe pursed her lips. “I have something to say. I don’t know if I should say it.”

n“What?” Gu Chu looked up at her. “Say it.”

n“Gu Wan actually twisted her ankle on purpose. I saw that she stepped into the pit and then pretended to fall into it.”

nGu Chu had already guessed this. This must be their plan.

nShe let out a faint “Oh.”

nQiao Qiao added, “Actually, I think she looks a little familiar. I think I’ve seen her somewhere before, but I can’t remember where.”

nGu Chu raised her eyebrows. “Are you serious?”

nShe nodded. “I don’t have to lie to you.”

nAt first glance, she felt that Gu Wan looked familiar.

nGu Chu rolled her eyes. So it was just an act. It was quite intriguing to know that she’d seen her before.

nMeng Lang actually found a random woman who gave her such a big surprise. She didn’t pamper him for nothing!

nShe took out her phone. “Let’s add each other on Wechat.” After adding her, she said, “In the future, if you think of any clues, tell me. Don’t worry, I will treat you well.”

nQiao Qiao’s eyes lit up. “Okay!”

nJust then, Feng Jia came back.

nQiao Qiao was a little afraid of him, so she quickly ran away. “I’ll go find Meng Lang.”

nGu Chu looked at him coquettishly. “It’s all your fault. You scared Qiao Qiao away. I wanted to hear her sing.”

nHe touched her forehead and found that her fever had subsided. He handed her the medicine. “Take this. I’ll take you back home.”

nGu Chu hummed. “Feed me.”

nFeng Jia: “…”

nShe’s doing it again.

nAfter eating, she leaned forward and hooked her arms around his neck. “Carry me.” He held her waist and carried her.

nHe carried her all the way to the passenger seat.

nWhen he got into the car, she asked curiously, “What did you do just now?”

nFeng Jia started the car. “Your cousin called me because of Wang Xiao.”

nGu Chu was even more curious. “What about him?”

n“He hid it from his family and applied to join the anti-terrorist special forces. He passed the tests, but his family objected.”

nGu Chu nodded. “I think that even if his family objected, he would still go.”

nAfter all, this had always been Wang Xiao’s dream.
