Void Jigsaw Puzzle
Chapter 164: Unkind Visitors
As soon as Zhong Chenmu returned to Wuming City, he went to his home and found his mobile phone which had been left there for many days. After charging it, his first call was to Guo Ling.
Guo Ling was very excited on the phone and told him that he was on his way to Leyou Pavilion for dinner with Huoyue and invited him to go with them.
"We're having dinner with the Gu family tonight, and it would be great if you could come! You know what? We'll keep the name Jigsaw Team, but it'll only include a small number of people. We'll continue to work on our business, and the chairman's position has been vacant, waiting for your return!"
Zhong Chenmu thought about it and agreed: "As long as it doesn't make the other person feel uncomfortable."
"What are you afraid of? We're treating you tonight, and it's just an extra pair of chopsticks!"
"..."
On the way to Leyou Pavilion, Zhong Chenmu was busy on the bus. He told everyone one by one that he had returned to Wuming City. As expected, everyone was overjoyed.
Zhu Tong lived with Fan Ting and even shouted on the phone: "Great! Great! Brother Xiao Zhong is finally back! The family should be together!"
Fan Ting finally said, "Xiao Zhong, Captain Zhong, even though Guo Ling has called you over tonight, we must spend the next two days together!"
"No problem!" Zhong Chenmu said with a smile.
The dinner was held at a newly opened restaurant next to the main street not far from the entrance of Leyouting. The facade was not very conspicuous, but it was a different world once you walked in. The entire restaurant had only 12 private rooms and no lobby seats.
When Zhong Chenmu arrived, only Guo Ling and Huo Yue were in the private room, and the people from the Gu family had not arrived yet.
The three of them hugged each other excitedly for several minutes.
After they separated, Huoyue smiled and said, "It's been a long time since I hugged a man for such a long time. Thank you."
"..."
The three were chatting and laughing when the waiter knocked on the door and brought in a few people.
Leading the group was a robust and energetic old man with a thin face and short gray hair. He exuded a capable temperament from head to toe. Following behind him were two young men, one of whom was slightly plump, the other more well-proportioned. Both were fair-skinned and it was obvious that they had grown up in a pampered environment. However, the well-proportioned one had a cynical expression on his face.
Guo Ling quickly stepped forward and said, "Mr. Gu, welcome, welcome. Let me introduce you. This is our chairman, Zhong Chenmu. He used to be the captain of the Jigsaw Team. I'm sure you've heard of him. He's been out on business lately and just returned to Wuming City tonight. When he heard we were getting together, he rushed over without stopping."
The old man nodded slightly, a faint smile on his face. After shaking hands with Guo Ling, he looked at Zhong Chenmu and said, "Captain Zhong, I have heard of your great name for a long time."
Zhong Chenmu didn't have much experience in this kind of social situation, so he could only nod and wave his hand, saying, "You're a senior, you're welcome."
Guo Ling also hurriedly introduced the other party to Zhong Chenmu: "This old man is the leader of the Gu family, Mr. Gu Dingjiang, the president of the Gu Group. Behind him are his nephews Gu Qingchen and Gu Qingyang. They have also taken on important responsibilities in the Gu Group."
Gu Qingyang!
Zhong Chenmu remembered this name. He and a second-generation member of the Shen family were possessed by the silicon clan, and then infected a large number of people.
However, he couldn't show that he had heard of him, because those things were not glorious history.
He greeted both of them.
Gu Qingyang obviously recognized Zhong Chenmu, so he seemed quite restrained.
After Huo Yue finished greeting everyone, he quickly asked everyone to take a seat.
Not long after the six people sat down, the waiter brought the dishes, and the overall rhythm was well controlled.
However, just after drinking a glass of wine, Gu Dingjiang frowned and said, "Mr. Guo, originally this dinner was yours, and Captain Zhong also took the time to come tonight. I shouldn't say this, but I can't hold it back, so I have to say it. If there is anything unpleasant to hear, please forgive me."
Guo Ling was refilling his glass with wine when he heard this. He froze and looked at Gu Dingjiang: "Mr. Gu, please speak."
"I heard that you are colluding with the Hydrogen Clan and trying to make money from our own people in Wuming City."
