Mr. Gu's little darling is incredibly cool!

Kota was actually quite worried that she would have a generation gap with the expert, so she thought it would be better to bring Sister Tian along when they met.

After all, Sister Tian is much more experienced than I am.

Lu Qingyun: [No need, I have the tickets.]

Huh? The expert already has votes?

Does the expert like Wen Shu type?

Kota guessed.

KT: [Okay, see you tomorrow, how about we meet at my themed store?]

Lu Qingyun: [Okay.]

-

manor.

Gu Jinming was in the living room with his laptop on his lap, and Zhou Ming was sitting on the sofa.

He glanced at the documents in front of him, then turned his gaze to Gu Jinming.

"Master Jin, did you and your wife have a fight?"

Upon hearing this, Gu Jinming looked up at him with a quiet gaze.

"Are you really hoping I'll argue with Qingqing?"

Zhou Ming chuckled, "No, no, I just noticed you seemed distracted."

So obvious?

Gu Jinming stopped typing and glanced at Zhou Ming: "When is Duanmu Yi coming back?"

"Tomorrow, I think. He heard that Wen Shu has a concert the day after tomorrow, so he bought his return ticket last night."

Hey, that's strange. Why did Master Jin ask Duanmu Yi what he wanted to do?

Even if there is a task, he usually asks himself first, and then lets Duanmu Yi do it.

Today is... wait, could it really be an emotional issue?

Otherwise, they wouldn't have asked Duanmu Yi.

Who can blame me for being single?

Gu Jinming was naturally unaware of Zhou Ming's inner thoughts. He nodded and pointed to the computer, "This Qiu Lou still needs improvement. Has anyone arranged training for him?"

"Yes, they are all targeted training sessions. However, the two new recruits are too young, and the veterans in the team look down on them a bit and occasionally try to trip them up."

"Have Tang Qin tell them that the training match is about to start, and they shouldn't be distracted. If they cause any more trouble, he should be kicked out of the team."

Zhou Ming was startled, thinking that Gu Jinming was angry, and he nodded in agreement.

As the two were talking, Lu Qingyun returned from outside.

"Young Madam is back? Are you hungry? I made some snacks in the kitchen, let me bring them to you to try."

Aunt Yu's voice came from the doorway.

"Okay, trouble."

When Lu Qingyun came in and saw Gu Jinming and Zhou Ming looking at her, she raised an eyebrow and asked, "Is there something on my face?"

Zhou Ming shook his head.

There was nothing there, but I felt that my sister-in-law had a cold aura about her, and I wondered who had upset her.

This young couple is really in sync; when they're in a bad mood, they're both in a bad mood at the same time.

"By the way, sister-in-law, will Rongyao be going to the training match in a few days?"

He saw the ticket Tang Qin had given him.

Lu Qingyun sat down on the sofa. "Hmm, it seems like it's to train the new members."

She didn't ask, and she wasn't sure either.

"Sister-in-law, will you be going to see it then?"

When Gu Jinming heard Zhou Ming ask this question, he turned his gaze over as well.

"It depends."

Upon hearing this, Gu Jinming looked away.

Lu Qingyun noticed this, turned her head to look over, pursed her lips slightly, as if she wanted to say something, but at this moment Aunt Yu brought over the prepared snacks.

Zhou Ming ate dinner there before leaving. When Lu Qingyun went to the living room to get her bag, she overheard the two of them discussing a person named K.

She touched her nose, picked up her bag, and walked away.

Back in her room, she turned on her computer and found that Jiang Yu had sent her a lot of messages.

Jiang Yu: [Master, I'm not trying to be rude, but the facts you're trying to investigate are simply impossible. Many people are involved, and investigating them would likely lead to serious trouble.]

Jiang Yu: [The Qiao family isn't that simple; it seems to have some connection with the Ouyang family in Country M.]

Jiang Yu: [I found a little bit, but I don't have enough permissions to access the others.]

Jiang Yu: [Document]

Upon seeing the message, Lu Qingyun narrowed her eyes.

Lu Qingyun: [Okay, thanks.]

She had just finished receiving the documents when there was a knock on the door.

Without even looking, Lu Qingyun was certain that the person outside the door was Gu Jinming.

As soon as the door opened, Gu Jinming wheeled himself into the room, a document on his lap and a glass of milk in his hand.

"Are you feeling unwell? Why did you eat so little just now?"

Since that little accident that morning, the two of them haven't really spoken to each other properly.

Lu Qingyun shook her head, "No, you've come at the perfect time. I was just about to ask you something."

"what?"

Do you know the Qiao family?

The Qiao family?

The Qiao family, which can't be mentioned?

Gu Jinming gave her a deep look. "Qingqing, why are you asking this?"

"Just ask."

She spoke casually.

But this doesn't look like a casual question at all.

Gu Jinming naturally didn't believe that.

"Drink this first."

Gu Jinming handed her the warm milk in his hand.

Lu Qingyun took it, drank a few sips, and then asked, "The Qiao family..."

"Qingqing."

Gu Jinming moved closer to her, placing his finger on her lips. "Don't get involved in this."

There was definitely a problem.

Lu Qingyun didn't immediately realize there was anything wrong with their posture. With her head down, she was still wondering why Gu Jinming wouldn't let her investigate the Qiao family.

Her lips are so soft.

Gu Jinming couldn't help but rub her lips with his finger, which brought Lu Qingyun back to her senses.

"Master Jin, what's wrong with you?"

He wasn't embarrassed at all, and naturally withdrew his hand. "How's your consideration of what I told you to think about?"

"Are you serious?"

Although Gu Jinming was indeed to his liking, she was involved in a lot of things, and getting him involved would be tantamount to implicating the Gu family.

Madam Gu and An Qiong have been very kind to her, and she doesn't want to drag them down.

Gu Jinming stared at her with unblinking dark eyes, his tone more serious than ever before.

"I'm serious, serious enough that you're the only one for me in this life."

A man's serious demeanor is truly captivating.

Lu Qingyun looked away from him and coughed lightly, "Ahem, I'll think about it. After all, such an important life decision shouldn't be taken lightly."

Gu Jinming chuckled: "Alright, how about giving me an answer in a week?"

"Ah, um."

She gave a vague reply and then looked down at the computer.

Gu Jinming only glanced at it casually, but when he saw the file on the computer, his brows furrowed.

"Qingqing, don't get involved in the Qiao family's affairs. It's very dangerous."

Seeing that Gu Jinming had discovered the document, she didn't try to hide it and openly began to examine it.

"I need to get to the bottom of this."

Perhaps it was because Lu Qingyun's expression was slightly cold, Gu Jinming sighed softly, "Why did you suddenly think of investigating the Qiao family?"

"My mother is a member of the Qiao family."

Gu Jinming: ...

He knew that Lu Qingyun's mother was named Qiao Xialan, but he wasn't sure if they were referring to the same Qiao family.

"Is it you who investigated the Qiao family?"

Lu Qingyun scrolled down with the mouse, quickly reading through the document, and finally nodded, "If the information is correct, I think my mother is the Qiao family you mentioned."

Gu Jinming remained silent once again.

I wanted to keep Lu Qingyun away from this danger, but little did I know that she was the source of the danger herself.
