"Her several-year-old child has been pestering Achen. Because she also studies ballet, Mrs. Huo is also close to her."
"What happened next?" she couldn't help but ask.
"You should know what happened next." Gu Erya glanced at the small wound on her arm, knowing that it was left when she climbed out of the window, and recalled the danger at that time.
The Gu family owes her two lives.
"The cooperation between the Qin family and the Huo family fell apart within a few years. Mrs. Huo's death aggravated the bad relationship between father and son. After that, Achen never smiled much."
Gu Erya chuckled: "But after you appeared, he slowly began to look like a flesh-and-blood person."
Rather than a revenge machine.
"It's not that I disapprove of you and Achen being together. On the contrary, if one day comes, I hope the person standing next to him is you."
He was thoughtful and pointed, "But not now, you and him are not suitable."
Ye Mingqian understood.
She asked him as if she was unsure but urgently needed confirmation: "Do you think there will be such a day?"
"This is your business and has nothing to do with me."
Gu Erya started to look like she did when she first met him, with the cynicism of a libertine, saying, "I'm not here to talk nonsense."
Who is it that has been gossiping here for a long time?
Ye Mingqian glared at him angrily: "It's not like I have to listen."
"Let's get down to business."
Master Gu waved his hand indifferently, "Have you read the contract in Qin Luoying's hand?"
"I didn't look closely."
Hearing this, his eyebrows wrinkled: "Did you see the red seal of notarization?"
"Maybe not."
Ye Mingqian remembered that Chi Yanchen also talked about this matter when she was present. When she opened the contract, her attention was focused on the text, and everything else was automatically omitted.
"It's fine if you don't."
The expression on Gu Erya's face relaxed, and she took the initiative to explain: "That contract was the first one our family signed with the Qin family. At that time, the Qin family did not sell but rented. We paid fifteen million in rent and signed three contracts first. year, but the plan could not keep up with the changes. Within two days, the Qin family announced that they would sell the land. Of course we refused, so we got the second land sale contract."
"Then why are you so nervous?"
Logically speaking, isn't this contract just a few pages of waste paper?
"I blame me for not making it clear." Gu Erya slapped her head, "Wasn't there a rumor before the Qin family sold the land that this land was used as Qin Luoying's dowry? The Huo family wanted the land but not the people, so they released it in the media first After discovering that the Qin family intends to sell the land to the Huo family, paparazzi revealed that the contracts between the two families have been signed, and the situation has been built up by the Huo family. Our land purchase has been full of twists and turns, and Qin Luoying has been saying to the outside world that the Gu family is cheating these years. We have acquired the land of the Qin family, so my family has actually been very passive in this matter."
"We have already held an investment meeting after the first rental contract was signed. At this time, Mr. Huo's move is equivalent to pushing the Gu family to the forefront. Many people do not believe what we say and think that there is no way to obtain land in China and Africa. Just so, I want to get the contract back and I just want to clarify it in front of the media and prove that what our Gu family said is true."
Ye Mingqian didn't quite agree with his approach.
"You take it out and no one cares about the truth."
After all, what the world talks about is only the vagueness of imagination. Who really cares about the truth behind things? Huo Jili didn't just take advantage of people's evil tendencies to make arrangements in advance to inspire public opinion. It's just that his signing of the contract was delayed by the Gu family.
"But if they are wronged, they must stand up and shut their mouths with the facts."
"you're right."
Gu Erya smiled, revealing a row of silver teeth, "I'm here to talk to you about these things, and what I want is this answer."
"what?"
Ye Mingqian was confused. She heard every word clearly. Why couldn't she understand it when it was combined into one sentence?
"My grandfather was an upright man. The Gu family was splashed with so much dirty water. It was equivalent to pointing at his old man's spine and scolding him. Before his death, he said that he wanted to cleanse the Gu family's stain. He could no longer fulfill his filial piety to his old man. He had to do it after all. Give him an explanation so that he can feel at ease under the circumstances."
Gu Erya lowered her head and deliberately lowered her voice when talking about the elder of the Gu family, "After so many years, no one said that the Gu family's matter was unreasonable on the surface, but behind the scenes we had a pleasant conversation. After all, our family Feng Zheng, I wanted to grab something to talk about but couldn't find anything, so I could only use this incident to belittle him, which almost became a worry for my parents."
"Then take it back."
She let out a long breath and said, "From Qin Luoying's hand."
"Well, I'll find a way."
Now that she has a place to talk, the depression in her chest is gone, and Gu Erya's smile becomes sunny again, "You and Achen must become a couple. I'm still waiting to be the best man."
Ye Mingqian's face turned red instantly.
"What nonsense are you talking about?"
Someone suddenly attacked her on the back of her head, and Gu Erya jumped up from her chair, gritting her teeth.
"It's neither light nor serious." Chi Yanchen turned around from behind him, holding a big black bag in his hand. Although his expression was as indifferent as before, the smile couldn't stop flowing from his eyebrows. .
"Should."
Ye Mingqian didn't feel sorry for Gu Erya being beaten and spat lightly.
"Two against one, I can't beat you, so I'm withdrawing."
Gu Erya recognized each other and made room for the two of them.
"Did he talk nonsense to you again?"
Ye Mingqian put down the thermos bucket in his hand and took out a bowl of soup from it.
She took it in her hand and saw that the light red liquid was crystal clear and melted in her mouth.
"Xueyan, what else was added?"
Not bad at all.
"I don't know, I just bought it." Chi Yanchen quietly hid the prescription list in the bag in his pocket.
Ye Mingqian saw it but didn't expose him. Men need some self-esteem, she understood.
She sipped the porridge in small sips. Perhaps she hadn't eaten for a long time, so she drank most of the bird's nest porridge in the thermos bucket.
"I can't eat any more."
Pushing away the bowl handed over by the man, Ye Mingqian patted her round belly. She looked at the white corner exposed in the black bag and asked:
"Is the safe open?"
"No."
Chi Yanchen shook his head, with a hint of embarrassment flashing across his face, "The box is made of special materials and is not immersed in water or fire. The lock is equipped with a device. It cannot be opened with a password. Even if the box is really damaged, the contents inside will be burned immediately."
"That would be difficult."
Ye Mingqian also felt worried after hearing this.
Who would have thought that such a box could be so tightly guarded? It was completely different from the one in the previous secret room. Does this mean that the things in this box are more important than those others?
"It must be opened."
Her eyes were brightening and she said seriously to Chi Yanchen: "It's so special. Huo Jili must have put something important in it."
