MTL - All Over the World To Save My Wife-Chapter 106 The upstart president and the down-and-out daughter (12)
======================================
Looking at the old man in front of him doubtfully, Gu Zhong stopped.
"Do you have any questions?"
"Miss Gu probably doesn't recognize me, the old man is your grandfather's old friend."
The old man looked very kind and said in a very kind and gentle tone. The pronunciation of his words was a fusion of the accents of the inland and Hong Kong Island, which sounded very strange.
"Many years ago, by chance, I went to the inland, and it was only today that I was able to return to my hometown. I didn't expect that the Gu family would fall like this, which is really unexpected..."
"...the old people return home, things are wrong, and it is inevitable to be sad. Please don't be too sad."
Seeing the old man sincerely misses and sighs, Gu Zhong is not familiar with the separated friends of grandfather's generation, she can only imagine that the old man may really have something to do with the Gu family, and Gu Zhong also Patiently comforted.
"Miss Gu, I don't know where you are now, can you let me visit another day?"
After a while, the old man spoke slowly again, asking for Gu Zhong's current residence.
"Now... Borrowing at a friend's house may not be convenient."
Glancing in the direction of Ling Yan, Gu Zhong seemed a little embarrassed, and she was secretly vigilant about the old man's proposal.
"Forget it, tomorrow I want to go to your grandfather's grave to worship for a day or two. I wonder if Miss Gu can go with you?"
The old man sighed slightly and made another suggestion.
"What are you, sir?"
This time anyone with discernment can feel that something is wrong, Gu Zhong looked at him strangely, his eyes full of scrutiny.
"Miss Gu doesn't have to be so vigilant. I'll be back inland in a few days, but there are some things I want to talk to Miss Gu alone."
Seeing the resistance of Gu Zhong, the old man quickly explained.
"There are a lot of things I want to say to your grandfather."
I then added a sentence, it seems that I really have a deep relationship and origin with the Gu family.
"Okay..."
After doubting the letter, Gu Zhong finally agreed. Grandpa was buried in the cemetery. She has been busy with things recently.
"Ah, I forgot to introduce myself just now, Miss Gu, my surname is Fang, your speech just now was wonderful."
The old man suddenly remembered something, reported his surname, and then sent a praise.
"Thank you, Mr. Fang."
After politely thanking him, Gu Zhong said goodbye to the old man and confirmed the appointment time again.
"That person—"
While they were talking, Ling Yan never went over, and she didn't open her mouth until Gu Zhong walked over to her after the end of the chat.
"He called himself Fang, and said he was my grandfather's old friend."
Looking at the silver-haired old man who was trembling towards the door, Gu Chongwen repeated the conversation just now.
"So he asked you to visit your grandpa tomorrow?"
Ling Yan frowned even more.
"Yes, is there something wrong?"
Seeing her like this, Gu Zhong asked worriedly.
"There is nothing wrong with his identity, his name is Fang Yu, his ancestral home is indeed Hong Kong Island, and now he can be regarded as the king of merchants in the inland. I just don't know why he is looking for you. It's better to keep an eye on it."
Because of knowing his identity and not knowing the good and evil of those who came, Ling Yan was even more worried.
"I'll go with you tomorrow."
At the end, she thought for a moment and added another sentence.
"Miss Ling, you don't have to worry about me all the time."
If I wanted to find a vivid description of her reaction, it would be like an old mother who was worried that her chick would be taken away by a fox. Gu Zhong couldn't help but smile bitterly.
I don't know how to express her concerns to Gu Zhong, so Ling Yan can only insist on her own opinion stubbornly.
In the end, Ling Yan personally sent Gu Zhong to the cemetery where the Gu family was buried, and accompanied her to meet Mr. Sun.
Today, the weather may have been dull for too long, but God finally showed mercy and was willing to splash a little rain.
From early in the morning, the drizzle shrouded the whole city in a haze, washing away the heat of the scorching summer.
The two women, holding an umbrella together, stepped up the wide stone steps of the cemetery and walked towards the cemetery above.
There was already another black round umbrella waiting there, and when I got closer, the silver-haired old man was wearing a pure black suit and coat today, a dress of nostalgia and mourning.
He stood alone in the rain, his eyes lowered and contemplative, a newly opened bottle of wine and a fresh bouquet of flowers were placed on the cemetery in front of him.
"Mr. Fang."
Gu Zhong called out softly, and the old man recovered from his memory.
He looked at the two who came with him, and there was a hint of confusion in his eyes.
"Who is this?"
"A close friend of mine, Miss Ling, has relied on her for help during this time."
Gu Zhong's tone was very intimate.
Mr. Fang glanced at Ling Yan suspiciously, as if recalling something in his mind.
"Hello Mr. Fang. I'm Ling Yan, from Yanjing."
Ling Yan took the initiative to reach out and introduce himself.
"It turned out to be Miss Ling."
Mr. Fang's eyes had a look of sudden realization. Obviously, the combination of this name and the city is extremely iconic.
"I didn't expect that Miss Ling was also a big man in the mainland?"
This reaction made Gu Zhong a little surprised, thinking that Ling Yan's family could also be called a name in the inland.
"It's just a family honor, and it has nothing to do with me."
Ling Yan chuckled lightly, separating herself from her family.
"Ms. Ling is indeed a person. The career she made at a young age is admired by the old man."
Mr. Fang gave her a very high praise, then the conversation changed, and his eyes looked between the two.
"Miss Ling specially accompanies Miss Gu to come to sacrifice today. It's really a deep friendship."
"I hope it doesn't bother Mr. Fang."
Avoiding the sharp edge in his words, Ling Yan said softly.
Mr. Fang sighed heavily, poured a glass of wine, and slowly sprinkled it in front of Grandpa Gu Zhong's tomb.
"When people are old, they always miss the past unconsciously, and they talk a lot."
It wasn't until a young man called from below that Mr. Fang smiled apologetically and stopped the conversation.
"Thank you very much for what you said today about my grandfather and father."
For Gu Zhong, she really recalled some of the stories she had vaguely heard in her childhood, and could not help but immerse herself in joyful and sad nostalgia.
"Miss Gu, shall we have lunch together today?"
Mr. Fang mentioned it casually, but he missed Ling Yan.
"I still have something to do at noon, so I can't participate in the gathering of the two of you."
Although it is strange, Ling Yan still makes a good excuse for something to do and prepares to take the lead.
Since others don't want her to know what she's about to talk about, why should she make fun of herself.
"Miss Gu, if you have something to do, send me a message."
Before leaving, she still gave an uneasy command, in exchange for Gu Zhong's indifferent smile.
"Mr. Fang, what's the matter with you? You want to send Miss Ling away?"
Savouring the new Longjing before the good rain this year, Gu Zhong directly asked his doubts.
"Miss Gu is now working in Yaozhong, right?"
Mr. Fang did not answer her question directly, but asked a question instead.
"Yes, thanks to Miss Ling who is willing to give this opportunity, otherwise it would be really difficult for me to turn over by myself."
"But Miss Gu, are you really willing to become a wage earner in your original company? With all due respect, Ling Yan, you really can't get too close."
Mr. Fang's expression condensed, and his words were quite severe, as if he was educating the ignorant juniors.
"What do you mean?"
Hearing this, Gu Zhong put down the tea cup in dissatisfaction, and the atmosphere instantly became tense.
—
Ling Yan received Gu Zhong's text message.
"Miss Ling."
Gu Zhong opened the car door and got into the passenger seat, calling her, looking extremely tired.
"You look tired."
Ling Yan greeted with some worry.
"It's fine."
Gu Zhong smiled slightly, then closed his eyes, looking like he didn't want to have any more conversations.
Sighing lightly, Ling Yan felt a little uncomfortable in her heart, but she just started the car without saying a word.
"Miss Ling, may I ask you a question?"
After a half silence, Gu Zhong suddenly asked.
"Huh? Yes."
Ling Yan replied casually.
"If it were you, there was a chance that you could get a hundred or even thousand times the profit, would you choose to try it?"
Gu Zhong still closed his eyes, but his beautiful eyebrows were wrinkled and troubled by troubles.
"Ms. Gu, I thought you should know this matter best. Behind any huge profit, there are invisible crises and traps.
It was clear that Gu Chao buried the Gu family in this way, but Gu Zhong still asked this question. It must not be a whim, it must have been affected by something.
"What did Fang Yu tell you?"
"Nothing."
This time is completely different from the past, Gu Zhong still chose not to talk about it, as if he had lost his complete trust in Ling Yan.
"Miss Gu!"
Ling Yan felt a little distracted, she braked suddenly to stop the car on the side of the road, and called out sternly.
Gu Zhong opened his eyes lazily, and he was full of tired emotions.
"..."
With just one glance, Ling Yan pressed all the questioning words back into her stomach. Even if she was annoyed by the loss of trust, she didn't need to get angry and intervene in accusing Gu Zhong. decision.
"Ms. Gu, if you can't decide something for the time being, you might as well think about it again, don't be affected by the imaginary deadline, there is nothing that must be done immediately."
She slowed down and returned to her gentle and soft look.
"Miss Ling, please allow me to think about it."
Looking at her, Gu Zhong was stunned for a moment, then opened his mouth, as if he was responding to the question just now, but not at the same time.
—
Most of her industries are still inland, so she can't ignore them completely. An emergency call across the river and sea is urging Ling Yan to return.
And during this time, I don't know what Gu Zhong is busy with, and he often disappears all day long.
The time of the two is no longer synchronized, and they can't see each other in the morning and sunset. This farewell seems to be so hasty.
Only enough time to say that in the message, Ling Yan left an empty villa for Gu Zhong, and took the flight back to Yanjing.
When receiving the message from Lingyan, Gu Zhongzheng was immersed in a sea of documents, verifying the opportunity that Fang Yu provided her, she wanted to use her own ability to judge whether it should be opportunity to invest.
She thought it was a normal greeting text message, but when she saw the words "emergency, I will return to Yanjing today, I will be back soon, call me if something happens", she couldn't help but froze in place .
It was only then that she realized how much she had neglected the relationship between the two during this time, and she didn't even have time to say goodbye.
Although they are adults with busy careers, there is no need to stick together all day long, but there is that person, it is peace of mind.
Fortunately, this is not a permanent separation, Ling Yan will always come back.
Thinking like this, Gu Zhong threw herself into her busy calculations as always.
—
It took three days to deal with the decisions that she had to personally see, Ling Yan was also exhausted physically and mentally, and began to think about moving the headquarters to Hong Kong Island.
After all, Gu Zhong can't lead Yao Zhong out of the island city for the time being. The development of a group takes a lot of time. .
Just as Ling Yan was thinking about going back in two days and thinking about what special gift to bring to Gu Zhong, a piece of bad news that made her hands and feet feel cold came first.
