380 Chapter 380-doesn’t seem to have good intentions

“Seventh master Gu’s words are serious. Whether it’s me or the Shi family, we don’t have much interaction with the Gu family. Seventh master Gu, you don’t have to be like this.”

as she spoke, shi yan’s gaze was fixed on gu zi’s face for two seconds.

it was not a big deal that he did not recognize her. she was not an important figure and had never interacted with the gu family or gu zi. so shi yan didn’t believe gu zi’s words that he came to her house to apologize for not recognizing her.

She couldn’t guess Gu Zi’s motive.

She didn’t know if Gu Zi saw through her thoughts, but she said, ” “Other than expressing my apologies, I actually came here for another matter.”

Oh?

“Seventh master Gu, please speak.”

“if i may ask, what is the relationship between miss shi and su chen? i can see that you two are very close.”

“If miss Shi feels that it’s inconvenient, you don’t have to answer me,” he said with a smile.

“There’s nothing inconvenient about it. I’m just a little curious why seventh master Gu would ask about this. Not many people knew about the relationship between Brother Su chen and Xuanji with the Shi family, but it was not a secret. With seventh master Gu’s ability, it shouldn’t be difficult to find out.”

“Indeed, it’s not difficult for me to find out. However, it was not glorious to investigate someone else’s Affairs without permission, and it might even anger the person involved. It’s just a small matter that piqued my curiosity. I don’t have to offend miss Shi and miracle doctor su for it. ”

Shi Yan looked at him with her usual faint smile and said, ” “so that’s how it is.”

“Seventh master Gu has a good character.”

“Thank you for your praise.”

Brother Su Chen’s master was my deceased fourth grandfather’s wife. After fourth grandfather passed away, fourth grandmother remained unmarried for the rest of her life. We, the younger generation of the Shi family, would call her fourth grandmother, and Brother Su chen was her disciple.

“it was common when they were young, so their relationship naturally grew closer.”

” i see. i thought that miss shi was close to miracle doctor su during her life outside. ”

the moment gu zi’s words fell, she met shi yan’s eyes.

he did not dodge and said with a smile,”please don’t laugh at me, miss shi. i’ve heard many rumors about you before i met you.” However, those rumors say that you’re not the young lady of the Shi family, but the girlfriend of the fifth master of the Jiang family.”

“It’s said that the one who captured the fifth Lord Jiang was a little girl from the countryside, and an orphan at that. I naturally know that miss Shi can’t be a girl from the countryside, let alone an orphan. However, there’s no smoke without fire. I was thinking, could it be that miss Shi has not lived in the Shi family all these years, and you have been closer to su chen all these years?”

“so, what is seventh master gu trying to say?” shi yan looked at him and smiled.

” i don’t have anything to say and i don’t have any other intentions. i’m just a little curious. miss shi, you can take it that i’m more curious. ”

he smiled calmly and no matter how shi yan looked at him, his expression did not change at all.

it was as if he was really curious.

Shi Yan didn’t answer his question, but said, ” “Seventh master Gu, you’re in a good mood.”

” i’ve never been curious about other people’s affairs, so i don’t quite understand seventh master gu’s curiosity about other people’s affairs. ”

that’s normal. Miss Shi doesn’t seem like a gossiper.

After he finished speaking with a smile, Gu Zi picked up the teacup and took a sip. He then continued,”miss shi is studying at haicheng university, right?”

shi yan lifted her eyelids to look at him and nodded.”yes.”

Haicheng University is one of the top ten universities in the country. You must be outstanding to be able to get in.

“You’re too kind,”

“actually, i believe what yu wen said about su chen, the miracle doctor su. i’ve known yu wen for many years, he’s not someone who would say things without thinking. if he wasn’t sure, he wouldn’t have said those things.”

He suddenly changed the topic, but he didn’t seem stiff.

this didn’t mean that he was good at changing the topic, but that he was thick-skinned enough.

“Oh, really? i don’t really know much about this lord wen.” Shi Yan said with a smile.

“Although Brother Su chen and I have some friendship, it’s not appropriate for me to get involved in Brother Su Chen’s private affairs. Therefore, I have no right to comment on what that Lord Wen of the original force said, and I don’t intend to express my opinion.”

“Miss Shi is the one with a good character who doesn’t get involved in other people’s private affairs and doesn’t have the heart to gossip. Since miss Shi doesn’t like it, let’s stop this topic.”

” speaking of which, a few years ago, i had an elder who was seriously ill and had to seek medical help everywhere. i once asked someone to help me find out the whereabouts of miracle doctor su and found out that he had appeared in wu county of yun province for a period of time. ”

Playing with the teacup, Gu Zi looked at Shi Yan and said with a smile, ” “Wu County of Yun province is a small county, and the conditions are still very poor until now. The conditions were even worse before. i wonder if miss shi has heard of this place?”

Shi Yan smiled. of course I’ve heard of it. I’m quite good at geography.

After going through such a big detour, this was his goal.

But why did Gu Zi ask where she lived all these years?

today was the first time she and gu zi met in the yuan shi. before that, she had never even heard of the name gu zi. she only knew that there was a gu family in M nation and that the gu family’s strength was not inferior to the four great families in the capital.

was he asking for himself or for yu wen’s sake?

if it was to help yu wen, what did he want to do?

to find out about her, and then use her to force su chen to submit?

that was unlikely.

In that morning’s meeting, if Yu Wen was smart enough, he wouldn’t have provoked her again, and he didn’t look like a stupid person.

After thinking about it, she was more inclined to think that Gu Zi was investigating herself.

It was really strange. She had been hiding in a small place like Wu County in Yun province for nine years and had never even shown her face. She had not seen many people who were ranked among the top, let alone making enemies.

Why did the seventh master of the Gu family, who was far away in country M, pay attention to her?

was she that charming?

Oh, her charm was probably great. After all, Jiang che had said that more than once.

......

“miss shi is a top student who got into haicheng university. she should be good at all subjects,” gu zi said with a smile.

” i’m here to apologize for not being able to recognize miss shi this morning. since i’ve already apologized, i won’t bother you any longer. ”

gu zi stood up as he spoke, very neatly and without any hesitation.

“so, what exactly is he here for?” tang fu asked after he left.

“didn’t he say that he’s here to apologize to miss yan?” tong yan sneered.

Then, the three of them looked at Shi Yan at the same time. Tong Yan said,”miss yan, gu zi is the kind of person who won’t feel guilty even if he accidentally took a life. it’s obviously strange for him to personally come to apologize for such a small matter.”

” you should be careful. i think gu zi has her eyes on you. as for whether it’s good or bad, i don’t know. ”

“It’s fine,” Shi Yan said with a smile.

it really was fine.

she was just curious about gu zi’s motive but she wasn’t worried or nervous at all. She didn’t even plan on investigating Gu Zi’s motives.

This was just a small interlude, and it had no effect on Shi Yan.

She stayed in the mist for a while and gave some suggestions regarding the future development direction and some business problems that Tong Yan and the others had raised.

jiang che came to pick her up at five o ‘clock.

she happily got into his car and left.
