Chapter 227: Face-Slapping Feels So Good
Mu Shaochen also looked at her: "If the Feng family wants to ask Mr. Gu to spare Feng Siling, he knows very well that Mr. Gu is most concerned about his little sister, so how could he make such a basic mistake?"
"Or it might be a warning, a knock on the door!" Tang Haolang frowned.
Lie Huo shook his head: "If it’s a warning or knock on the door, why call this lunatic Li Aiyin and Gu Yonglei to the scene, twisting things around? Wouldn’t it be simpler for the pheasant to come out and directly issue a warning?"
Just then, the secretary called in via the intercom: "Mr. Gu, the old master and mistress have arrived!"
Gu Xiaozhan frowned with displeasure; what good could it be for these two to come now?
"Lie Huo, you continue investigating the pheasant," Gu Xiaozhan ordered, "Shao Chen, keep tracking online for any clues."
"Yes!" Lie Huo and Mu Shaochen responded in unison.
"Mr. Gu, there’s one more thing..." Tang Haolang quickly said: "The apprentice of the Heavenly Deformed Divine Doctor contacted me, saying they will be treating Shao Chen soon. Previously, the young Divine Doctor treated Li Qivi’s leg and the results were indeed remarkable; that spoiled second generation is recovering quite well."
Gu Xiaozhan glanced at him domineeringly: "Stay first for Shao Chen’s treatment; the African aid mission can be postponed."
You should know, he’s talking about postponement, not canceling.
"Yes!" Tang Haolang secretly cast a pleading look towards Mu Anhan.
Mu Anhan also grasped some of Gu Xiaozhan’s character; if she didn’t plead for Tang Haolang, it’s likely that after healing her third brother, Gu Xiaozhan would forget about the African aid mission.
But if she brought it up, he might get even angrier, and once Tang Haolang went, he wouldn’t be back for a year or half.
So, when Tang Haolang used his eyes to plead with her, she pretended to see nothing.
Gu Xiaozhan indicated for everyone to leave.
Mu Anhan quickly ran towards the lounge.
"Where are you going?" Gu Xiaozhan saw this person slipping away faster than a rabbit.
Mu Anhan shrunk her neck: "Parents are coming, I’m afraid..."
"When I’m here, what are you afraid of?" Gu Xiaozhan snorted.
He saw she was still unwilling to come over, his tone carried a bit of displeasure: "Didn’t you say we should stick together for 24 hours?"
If Mu Anhan doesn’t stay here, wouldn’t that be slapping her own face?
She had no choice but to take small steps to his side.
Before she could stand firm, he pulled her into his arms with one hand, letting her sit on his long legs, "Do you already have a mastermind in mind?"
"Hubby, there’s no evidence, I can’t speak recklessly." Mu Anhan quickly shook her head like a rattle.
Gu Xiaozhan’s eyes carried sharpness and scrutiny, "What? You don’t trust me? Do you think I might betray you?"
Mu Anhan immediately hugged his neck and acted coquettishly: "How could I not trust hubby? I just..."
Before she could finish speaking, the secretary knocked on the door.
The door opened, and Huo Yiwen entered supporting Gu Zhentao’s arm.
Although Gu Zhentao was already 78, he was still energetic, especially the eyes of men from the Gu family, which naturally carry aggressive sharpness.
Huo Yiwen looked younger than his actual age; the two embraced like this didn’t seem like a couple but more like a father and daughter.
The gap between an old husband and a young wife wasn’t significant when they were young.
However, as they age, it becomes very apparent.
It is often said that between father and son, it is always a contest of male species; at this moment, the atmosphere in the office was very tense.
