Jiang Yan noticed the necklace she quickly stuffed into her pocket and said with a headache, "So what are you planning to do now? Have a secret relationship with Master Du? You're in the prime of your career right now. If your relationship is exposed, people will say you're relying on Master Du. Besides, Master Du isn't someone you can mess with!"

You can't always have a cold face towards others!

The two necklaces really look alike.

Shen Yechu felt that Jiang Yan's words were a bit too harsh. With her junior uncle's personality, it was already a miracle that he hadn't killed anyone!

As expected, there's no way she could spark a romance with her junior uncle.

Fu Zhihan stared at Gu Qingyan, his face full of heartbreak, and asked, "Qingyan, I pursued you before, and you rejected me. You wouldn't actually be dating this Master Du, would you?"

Gu Qingyan looked at him, a slight smile playing on her lips.

His cool voice carried a hint of arrogance: "You're overthinking it. I rejected you simply because you're not as good-looking as me."

After that dinner, Fu Zhihan and Fu Zhihan added each other on WeChat and played games together.

That very night, he confessed his feelings to her.

Gu Qingyan rejected him on the spot.

Later, the two often played games together. Gu Qingyan would carry Fu Zhihan to victory in the game, and would call him "Dad" every day, begging him to carry her.

Fu Zhihan also became withdrawn, practicing the game diligently every day, and would often ask Gu Qingyan to play duo queue with him.

The two soon became like brothers.

Fu Zhihan stopped mentioning pursuing her in front of her, but every time he played games, he would still jokingly say that he wanted to pursue Gu Qingyan.

During this time, he heard rumors from somewhere that Gu Qingyan liked to eat sweets.

He began practicing his cooking skills day and night.

Shi Mubai stepped forward and patted Fu Zhihan on the shoulder, "That hurts, bro. Is it too late to get it fixed now? Tell me what kind you like, and I'll get it done."

Fu Zhihan glanced at Shi Mubai.

Gu Xun blinked. "So that person was someone you..."

Hypnotize that person!

Before Gu Xun could finish speaking, Gu Qingyan glared at him, and he immediately swallowed all his words.

“Wait a minute,” Jiang Yan glanced at Gu Qingyan and then back at Gu Xun, “What? By what? What are you talking about? What did you do to Master Du? He’s not as simple as you think!”

The others looked at Gu Qingyan with curiosity and gossip.

Gu Qingyan tilted her head slightly, looked at Jiang Yan, and her gaze lingered for a long while.

Suddenly, she chuckled softly, her exquisite and beautiful face suddenly pressing down on Jiang Yan, her fox-like eyes fixed on her, her amber pupils both alluring and cold.

Gu Qingyan has an overwhelming aura.

Jiang Yan's heart pounded as she looked at that stunningly beautiful face, and her back trembled involuntarily.

Gu Qingyan reached out and pinched Jiang Yan's cheek.

Her fox-like eyes curved slightly, alluring and captivating, and her voice was cold and deep, "Baby, be good. The less you know, the more likely you are to survive."

His voice was languid and wicked, yet carried a hint of danger.

Jiang Yan: "..."

Gu Xun pouted, her phoenix eyes brimming with tears as she looked at Gu Qingyan pitifully, "Sister, I didn't mean to, please forgive me."

Gu Qingyan glanced at it and said, "Pack your things, we're going back to R Continent tomorrow."

"No, my dear sister, you can see that he's just lusting after you. Maybe he didn't realize it was you, and I won't tell anyone!" Gu Xun said obediently, shaking Gu Qingyan's hand.

"Didn't you provoke others first?" Gu Qingyan remained unmoved, ruthlessly brushing his hand away and pointing her index finger at his forehead. "Don't forget that only the dead can keep secrets."

Although he didn't know what had happened to those two gentlemen, he was very intelligent and instantly understood what was going on by connecting all the dots!

Gu Xun panicked on the spot.

I hope his sister won't kill him!

Gu Qingyan ignored him and said, "Then shut your mouth."

"Okay!" Gu Xun felt that his sister was really good to him. After seeing her off, he would never see her again, so he just kept quiet.

Gu Qingyan turned around and touched the necklace in her pocket.

His eyes gradually darkened, and his gaze was filled with shattered ice.

He grinned, his fox-like eyes unfathomable, and said in a slow, low voice, "Indeed, not simple!"

……

I left Beiyu Mansion.

Xie Shiren was driving.

"Back to Beidi No. 1 Garden," the man said with a stern face.

Xie Shiren glanced at his expression in the rearview mirror, paused slightly, and asked, "Brother Du, didn't you say you were busy and going back to the company?"

Shangguan Du did not speak again.

I just parked the car at the entrance.

Shangguan Yan and Shangguan Ren stood there respectfully waiting, "Master Du, Young Master Xie."

Shi Qiansi was also taken aback when he saw Shangguan Du's expression.

He quickly came to his senses and handed him a sealed letter. "Brother Du, this is what Sheng Jinheng brought back from R Continent."

"Wait a minute." Shangguan Du didn't answer immediately.

He had the necklace wrapped in a tissue in his pocket.

Seeing this, Shi Qiansi asked in confusion, "Brother Du, what's going on?"

"Brother Du, isn't this what that woman left behind?"

Shangguan Du did not respond.

Holding the necklace wrapped in a tissue, she turned and walked towards the underground laboratory.

Shi Qiansi watched Shangguan Du's disappearing figure. This man's recent behavior was becoming increasingly perplexing.

He turned to look at Xie Shiren, "Where have you all been all day?"

"We went to Gu Qingyan's house for dinner," Xie Shiren said truthfully.

Shi Qiansi's pupils contracted.

Why is it Gu Qingyan again?

Du Ge and Gu Qingyan have been getting too close lately.

Even when taking care of a friend's sister, there should be limits!

Could it be that he's really interested in this minor celebrity who isn't recognized by the Sheng family?

What about the woman who was hypnotized two months ago?

Shi Qiansi turned to look at Shangguan Yan, "Any news about that woman?"

Shangguan Du told them they didn't need to investigate anymore, but that didn't stop his men from being curious, so they should still keep an eye on things.

Shangguan Yan said somewhat dejectedly, "There isn't a single clue."

He's been investigating for almost two months now, and he's almost convinced of his mistake.

With their influence in the capital, they couldn't even find a single hair on this woman's head.

Shi Qiansi crossed his arms and said, "If Brother Du didn't always wear that necklace, we would start to suspect that he falls in love with every woman he meets."

Xie Shiren didn't understand for a moment. "What do you mean? Isn't Brother Du pursuing Gu Qingyan?"

Shi Qiansi glanced at the top-secret document on the table, plopped down on the sofa, crossed his legs, picked up a cigarette from the cigarette pack on the table, gently exhaled a ring of white smoke, and pondered for a moment, "The necklace, the one he had, was actually wrapped in a tissue."

Xie Shiren sat down next to him and stroked his chin. "Isn't it a bit late for Brother Du to get this tested now?"

Shi Qiansi rolled his eyes at this idiot and flicked his cigarette ash. "Was there anything special at Gu Qingyan's place today?"

Xie Shiren replied without hesitation, "What could have happened? He was just drinking and eating with a bunch of people. But Brother Du suddenly said he wasn't feeling well and went to Gu Qingyan's room to rest. This is the first time I've heard of someone with such a strong body not feeling well. Tsk!"

Shi Qiansi took a drag of his cigarette and said nothing more.

The two looked at each other and fell silent.
