The Deepest Color of the Night

The moment he said this, he had already thought about all Gu Mingzong's reactions, furious, cold, and ridiculous, and he didn't take it seriously when he was joking... However, the moment the last word was uttered, Gu Mingzong's mobile phone on the table It rang.

He immediately made a stop gesture, got up to answer the phone, and walked not far away.

"Hey?"

"..."

Fang Jin's eyes suddenly changed slightly——

The moment he passed by, he heard the voice from Gu Mingzong's cell phone.

Fang Jin is very sensitive to voice.He practiced the piano when he was a child, and he has a good sense of music and has long fingers. Gu Mingzong's original intention to send him to Germany was actually to let him learn music, but Fang Jin himself refused.Growing up in a place like Gu's family that needs to work at every step, it is impossible for a vase that plays the piano and paints to protect itself. If you want to survive, you must learn the skills of survival as much as possible.

But he still has the foundation of practicing piano when he was a child, and his ability to distinguish human voices is still very subtle.

He should have dealt with the person who called Gu Mingzong recently.

With his back turned to him, Gu Mingzong stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling glass window not far away.Fang Jin stared at the dancing candlelight in front of his eyes, and a series of people he had talked with recently appeared in his brain like lightning, and he compared them in various ways, and the premonition of uneasiness in his heart became more and more serious.

Yes, he did hear this voice before, it was...

The phone rang suddenly, abruptly interrupting Fang Jin's thoughts, and when he looked down, it was Gu Yuan.

"Hello?" Fang Jin quickly answered the phone, got up and left the table.

"Where are you?"

"Dining outside, what's the matter, Mr. Gu?"

There was the sound of turning pages on the phone, and after a while, Gu Yuan's calm and concise voice sounded: "Go back to the company, we have an accident with Mingda Shipping's $1000 million project."

Fang Jin asked in astonishment, "——what's the matter?"

"Minda is bankrupt."

Facing the glass window, Fang Jin clearly saw his reflection's suddenly dilated pupils.

At the same time, not far away, Gu Mingzong ended the call and was walking towards this side.

"...I see." Fang Jin said to the phone, his voice was unexpectedly calm: "See you at the company in half an hour."

Fang Jin hung up the phone, turned around and saw Gu Mingzong pulling the seat for him, and asked, "Gu Yuan's phone number?"

His tone and movements were so ordinary, nothing unusual, but Fang Jin knew that something was wrong where he didn't see it—that kind of keen intuition for danger had saved his life countless times, and there was no Any mistakes.

Fang Jin said calmly: "Yes."

He slipped his mobile phone into his trouser pocket, walked to the dining table, but did not sit down, but took the initiative to raise the tall crystal glass to touch Gu Mingzong lightly, then raised his head and drank the red wine in one gulp.

"Mr. Gu," he gently put the empty wine glass on the table, stared into Gu Mingzong's eyes and said sincerely: "I'm sorry, something happened to the company, the young master asked me to go back immediately."

The atmosphere is still charming, and the nocturne is beautiful and fluttering.Not far away, the sky is full of stars and the night scene of the city is bustling. This extremely luxurious revolving restaurant on the top of a high-rise building is like a dreamlike fairyland of wealth.

However, in this small space, the air is so tight that it might explode at any time.

Gu Mingzong looked at Fang Jin, suddenly laughed and asked: "——What did you ask me before answering the phone? I didn't hear clearly." "No." Fang Jin didn't even pause, and said naturally: "There is nothing to ask, I was wrong."

The smile in Gu Mingzong's eyes deepened slightly.

——Gu Mingzong is like this.He could be a personable, even charming man when he wanted to, and you wouldn't think he had anything to do with the bloody, creepy stuff.

"Then you go." He bent down and pressed a tobacco-scented kiss on Fang Jin's forehead, and said with a smile, "Don't be too late. You have a bad stomach, remember to eat."

·

A quarter of an hour later, Fang Jin drove his silver Lexus all the way back to the company building and went straight up to the general manager's office on the top floor.

The shutters are not drawn, and the night view of the city center can be overlooked from the floor-to-ceiling glass windows, and most office buildings are still lit with scattered lights.Gu Yuan sat behind the large desk, his tie had already been loosened, a small piece of his chest was exposed at the neckline, and his shirt cuffs were casually stacked to reveal his strong elbows.

Fang Jin knocked on the door, "Master."

"Come in," Gu Yuan finally raised his head from behind the computer, and said calmly, "Excuse me, I'm inviting my girlfriend to dinner."

"...I don't have a girlfriend." Fang Jin said helplessly, thinking how could you think of that, "What's going on with Mingda Shipping?"

Gu Yuan should just mention it casually, and instead of pestering him about his girlfriend, he pointed to the computer screen: "The project we cooperated with Mingda originally planned to receive 1000 million funds, but news came this afternoon, as early as half an hour Their ship sank in the ocean with a full load of cargo a month ago. The company has been concealing information and transferring assets until now the company has only the last piece of paper left, and it immediately declared bankruptcy while facing huge claims. "

Fang Jin immediately asked: "How much money can we get back?"

"Based on the proportion of bankruptcy liquidation, the initial estimate is up to 30.00%, but this is not the point of the question."

Gu Yuan paused for a moment, but Fang Jin had already reacted: "——pay off the time!"

"You are much more reliable than those stupid directors." Gu Yuan said lightly: "Yes, the time of settlement. Mingda Shipping has a government background, and the investigation will encounter a lot of resistance from relevant stakeholders. At least within half a year we will not We may get a penny... But in another ship purchase project of the company, the contract we signed with the German shipyard is due to pay next week, and it is too late to apply to the bank for an increase in the loan amount."

Fang Jin took a short breath.

He instantly understood all the key points.

Mingda Shipping’s bankruptcy liquidation must be repaid according to the order of debt repayment. If there is only one layer of empty shell left in the company, then the 1000 million US dollars is most likely to be lost. All are lucky.

Gu Yuan's original plan was that as soon as Mingda Shipping's repayment funds were in place, they would immediately transfer the down payment to the German supplier for the purchase of the ship, and borrow the rest from the bank.But the problem now is that in the case of a serious lack of liquidity, they can't even pay the down payment, which means they are facing the serious threat of being forced to default!

At this time, it is less than a week before the payment to the German side next week, just a few days, where did tens of millions of dollars in cash come from? !

"A shopping mall is like a battlefield. If you are not careful, you will lose everything." Gu Yuan smoked a cigarette from the cigarette case, but held it in his hand and said flatly, "It was my mistake."

When he said this, he didn't feel depressed or regretful—there is no perfect decision-making in this world, and doing business is as risky as gambling. high.

Victory or defeat is a common matter for military strategists. Whether tall buildings rise from the ground or collapse in an instant, calm response is the first element.

Fang Jin felt a little sad, he walked over and handed Gu Yuan a lighter from his pocket.

Gu Yuan didn't answer: "Aren't you a non-smoker?"

"For you."

"I know, I said that if you don't smoke, I won't smoke in front of you."

"..." Fang Jin was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "Let's smoke."

Gu Yuan leaned back in the boss chair, looked up at Fang Jin with squinted eyes.There was no one on the top floor of the company, and there was silence in the spacious office. The lights of the distant city converged into a torrent, refracted in from the floor-to-ceiling windows, and all were reflected in Fang Jin's bright eyes.

His eyes always seem to be watery, and he always looks innocent and soft, as if he won't be angry no matter what happens.

...Won't he leave me no matter what I do wrong?

Gu Yuan unconsciously came up with this idea, but then cut it off consciously and funny-the situation is already very bad, and if you are still imagining that even Fang Jin will abandon him, isn't it miserable enough?

"A person like you hasn't been bullied to death since you were a child." Gu Yuan took the lighter and said with a smile, "Your parents must be very dedicated."

Fang Jin paused, and said, "This... depends on which aspect to talk about."

Gu Yuan lit the fire with a snap, and when he was about to light a cigarette, he sniffed, as if he could smell a trace of tobacco from Fang Jin's extended hand.

Not to mention that Fang Jin doesn't usually smoke, even if he smokes it, the smell is very different from ordinary cigarettes. If he insists on describing it, it's a bit like some kind of special cigar mixed with a little absinthe, which can't be smelled if you don't pay attention.Gu Yuan's first reaction was that he had smelled it wrong, but his hand paused for a few seconds in mid-air to confirm that it was not an illusion, it was indeed the smell on Fang Jin's cuff.

"Didn't you have dinner with your girlfriend just now?" Gu Yuan lit a cigarette and asked with a smile, "You probably found a boyfriend."

"..." Fang Jin's complexion changed slightly, and he replied immediately, "You're joking...it's a former classmate."

Gu Yuan said casually: "Then your classmate should have a good time and smoke a good cigarette."

Now that he was sure that he was not his girlfriend, Gu Yuan didn't pay much attention, and took a stack of documents from the desktop and handed them to Fang Jin: "This is the relevant information of Mingda Shipping, help me prepare, I will form a team of professional lawyers tomorrow Go fight with them—pay attention to this person," he turned to the first page of the information, pointing to the head of a middle-aged man with an ordinary appearance: "This is Lu Wenlei, the registered legal person of Mingda Shipping, and he disappeared completely after the accident. I used the power left over from the cleansing of the Gu family before to look for it, but I didn't even see a shadow, maybe it was dead."

If you can't find it, you may die. It's because Gu Yuan used some of the people and connections that had not been completely dismissed when the Gu family came ashore from the underworld to clean up their crimes. The province of G was originally full of mixed gangs, and the Gu family had great influence in the underworld in the early years. , although [-]% of them have been completely cleansed now, the remaining relationship network cannot be underestimated.

If even the Gu family can't find any clues, this person has either spread his wings or is really dead.

Fang Jin leaned down, looked at the photo with Gu Yuan's hand, and suddenly his pupils constricted in the next second.

Lu Wenlei, legal person of Mingda Shipping.

The thought that was interrupted in the restaurant before was connected again, and he finally remembered who the familiar voice on Gu Mingzong's phone belonged to——

It's this guy!

Fang Jin took the information from Gu Yuan. At that moment, his expression and movements were the same as usual, but his heart was beating extremely fast, causing the blood to rush to his fingertips.

Mingda Shipping cheated Gu Yuan of tens of millions, and made a ruthless move with precise timing. After he succeeded, he immediately declared bankruptcy, which quickly dragged down all the company's cash flow.

However, Gu Yuan couldn't find the person using his underworld connections, but he was still contacting Gu Mingzong half an hour ago.

This shows what?

All the evidence points to a creepy, yet plausible answer—

Mingda Shipping has an unknown relationship with Gu Mingzong, and Gu Mingzong himself is likely to be the leader behind the incident!

In an instant, the scene in the restaurant just now appeared in Fang Jin's mind.He was holding the mobile phone, facing the floor-to-ceiling windows, not far behind Gu Mingzong hung up the phone and turned around; in the reflection, he seemed to be in a pretty good mood, staring at himself through the glass, with a not-so-obvious smile on his lips.

Fang Jin finally realized where the uneasiness he felt at that time came from.

——Gu Mingzong's smile.

He has seen that expression many times, it is clearly the expression that the prey has fallen into the palm, just waiting for the fatal blow!

But why did Gu Mingzong deal with Gu Yuan?

Gu Yang is frivolous and unstable, and his eldest son, Gu Yuan, has always been the tacit heir to the business empire.Gu Mingzong's action can be said to have defeated most of Gu Yuan's foundation in one fell swoop, and what's more, it is possible to completely crush him to death.

Fang Jin's nails dug deep into his fingertips, so as to suppress the coldness rising deep in his heart.

Why on earth did Gu Mingzong want to make such a deadly move against his heir?

Chapter 14 The bright lights are reflected on Fang Jin's side face, and there is an ice-like calmness and determination hidden between his brows and eyes

At six o'clock in the afternoon, at the International Chamber of Commerce Building, Gu Mingzong walked out the gate with one hand in his trousers pocket, and suddenly caught a glimpse of a silver Lexus quietly parked under the steps.

He stopped in his footsteps, and a slight smile flashed across his eyes.

"Then we will deliver all the relevant documents to your legal department tomorrow. At that time, please... Mr. Gu?" The chairman of the meeting beside him paused, and then the group of people behind him stopped moving: "Mr. Gu?"

"I see," Gu Mingzong turned his head and said with a smile, "Please worry about it, let's talk about it in the meeting tomorrow."

The chairman wanted to say something, but he saw Gu Mingzong striding down the steps, without even looking at Wang Yu and others who were waiting beside the motorcade not far away, walked straight to the silver Lexus and opened the door.

"Director Wang, this..."

Seeing the Lexus license plate, Wang Yu waved his hand to stop his subordinates from asking questions.

"It's not something you and I can care about... Mr. Gu won't be going back tonight, let's go."

·

Gu Mingzong put on his seat belt and said calmly, "Tell me, what's the matter?"

There was only Fang Jin in the driver's seat in the car. He should have just come out of the company. He was wearing a dark blue slim-fit suit and white shirt. He wore a pair of gold-rimmed glasses because of the driving. He looked very gentle and calm: "It's nothing, it's just yesterday I left the meeting halfway, and I will invite you back today."

Gu Mingzong turned to look at him.

"how?"

Gu Mingzong didn't speak, just narrowed his eyes slightly and looked carefully, and said after a long while: "I'm thinking about how you were when you were young."

"...When I was a child?"

"Well, when you first came to Gu's family, you were as weak as a little girl, and you would cry every now and then. I didn't expect you to grow up in just a few years. Children grow up differently every day."

Gu Mingzong said this in a tone as if he was just chatting, but Fang Jin glanced at him very unobtrusively and looked at his expression.

The car turned around, drove out of the exhibition square, and merged into the torrent on the road.The road ahead was full of traffic and street lights, Fang Jin focused on the road, and asked after a long while: "Is that better when I was a child, or is it better now?"

Gu Mingzong laughed:

"Now." He said lightly, "You used to be a little thing, and you can finally look at it as a serious person when you grow up."

·

Lexus drove all the way to the gate of the hotel that Gu Mingzong asked him to go to yesterday, got off the car and went directly to the top floor, which was still the revolving garden restaurant yesterday.

No matter what the outside world is like, the luxury, luxury and elegance of this kind of place will not change.The difference is that yesterday, before Gu Mingzong came, the scene was cleared, and there were almost no other guests on the side where they were sitting; today, it was fully booked, and there were a total of twenty tables scattered in the huge restaurant, all of which were full.

The waiter respectfully led them to the window seat with the same 270-degree night view of the city as yesterday, and Gu Mingzong wondered while taking off his coat: "How long did you say hello to the restaurant in advance for this kind of seat? "

"It's noon today." Fang Jin opened the chair and sat down, calmly said: "I used your name when I made the reservation."

Gu Mingzong laughed suddenly, shook his head after a long while and sighed: "——Sure enough, I can see it as a person."

Fang Jin was born with the potential to be an assistant and deputy.He is careful, considerate, and does things properly; as long as he wants, he can arrange one thing seamlessly and perfectly, and the most picky people can't find the slightest fault.

For example, he asked the restaurant before he came and knew that Gu Mingzong left without eating yesterday, so the menu on today is exactly the same as yesterday.Among them, there is a sea fish that was thrown away because it was useless yesterday, and there is no food today. Fang Jin temporarily chose another fish with a similar taste to replace it.

Gu Mingzong picked up a piece of fish and asked without raising his head, "What happened to the company yesterday?"

"...It's nothing," Fang Jin said calmly, "Young Master asked me to deal with some information related to Mingda Shipping. I guess there is something wrong with their cooperation. Young Master went out early this morning, but he didn't take me with him. It should be that even if there is a problem, you don’t want me to know.”

"Oh, he's not quite convinced of you yet?"

"Elder and younger have their own team."

Gu Mingzong nodded with great interest, "Maybe he didn't want me to know, such a big loss, I'm afraid that the expansion of the situation will affect the status of the heir."

Fang Jin paused for a moment with the hand holding the knife, then raised his eyes and asked with a smile, "So you know everything?"

Candlelight flickered, flowers were fragrant, and the violin of the chamber band fluttered like silk.Gu Mingzong put down the knife and fork, wiped the corners of his mouth with a napkin, and said indifferently: "Of course I know. Mingda Shipping suddenly declared bankruptcy and carried out a private transfer of assets. The tens of millions of dollars invested by Gu Yuan lost everything; now Mingda relies on the government The background delays the bankruptcy liquidation procedures, and such a large cash flow is always delayed, Gu Yuan should be so anxious that he will go to the wall."

Fang Jin said: "It's good that I can pay my salary."

"Oh?" Gu Mingzong seemed to feel a little funny: "Aren't you very stubborn when you return the card, do you care about this little salary?"

Fang Jin slowly swallowed a piece of fish, took another sip of water, and said after a long while: "This is different——I was sent by you to the company of the young master, and the stickers on my head were either yours or the old one's. In short, Mrs. Chi will never think that I want to be on her team. In the future, if the young master succeeds in taking over the position, even if I don’t need to be reused, at least I can live a peaceful life; the second young master’s words may not be so, so of course I am concerned about this issue .”

This is the first time Fang Jin has touched on the issue of heirs in so many years. Before that, it was a taboo among Gu Mingzong's taboos.

But what he said was reasonable. He was one of the few people who could logically raise this point, whether it was from the subordinate relationship or from the more intimate and intimate relationship.

Sure enough, Gu Mingzong didn't get angry, he didn't even mean to be angry at all, instead he laughed: "You really think so?"

Fang Jin said, "Yes, that's what I think."

The waiter wearing an English vest came up to remove the empty plates, and in a short while pushed the dining car over, and served the next main course, charcoal-grilled Wagyu steak.According to etiquette at this time, the waiter should put the small piece of steak on the special smokeless carbon for the guest, introduce the raw materials and the place of origin, and then cut the steak to the guest; but Gu Mingzong raised his hand to stop him.

"We'll do it ourselves."

The waiter nodded immediately and stepped back quickly.

"Gu Yuan's minions are sharp, his sharpness is too sharp, and his ambition is too great." Gu Mingzong looked at Fang Jin and said slowly: "This is very similar to his mother's family, so everyone says that his son is like his father, but it is not the case at all. .”

Fang Jin frowned slightly.

Gu Mingzong turned over the beef on the charcoal casually, and said with a smile: "But you don't have to worry, no one can touch you before I die, and you will leave after I die, who do you need to be afraid of?"

He gracefully roasted the veal over the hot charcoal fire, cut it into two pieces with a silver knife after a while, and sent the fatter half to Fang Jin's plate.Fang Jin thanked him and asked, "I just think that according to this, you seem to be dissatisfied with Gu Yuan and Gu Yang, so I'm just a little curious."

"It's not surprising that neither of them can do it. Speaking of which, they are not as good as you are like me."

Fang Jin was taken aback.

"It's a pity that you didn't reincarnate into my son, who is to blame?" Gu Mingzong lazily tapped on the table: "——Eat, don't be hungry, the steak tastes good."

·

During the next meal, Gu Mingzong didn't talk about heirs anymore.

Fang Jin didn't say a word - he knew that he had just walked back and forth on the cliff on a tightrope.

The old chaebol of the Gu family, black and white eat everything, the only and most deadly problem is that the ruler is in his prime, but his two sons have already grown sharp fangs.It's not that Gu Yuan and Gu Yang have never tried to bring the heir issue to the fore, but every attempt has failed at a heavy price. As time goes by, everyone in the Gu family knows that this is a taboo that must never be mentioned.

After dinner, the waiter came to take away the empty plates and poured two more glasses of red wine.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Gu," Fang Jin stood up and said to Gu Mingzong, "I'm going to the bathroom."

Gu Mingzong nodded, but the moment Fang Jin stood up, because the chair was not completely backward, his body hit the edge of the table heavily——

This restaurant pays attention to ambience, and it uses a relatively light and stylish wooden dining table, which was instantly tilted when it was hit, and then the tall glass was overturned, and the red wine was instantly poured all over Gu Mingzong's body!

"I'm sorry, Mr. Gu!" Fang Jin stepped forward quickly: "How could this be... the waiter!"

Gu Mingzong wiped it with a snow-white napkin, signaling him that it's okay.At this time, the two waiters noticed the situation here, and immediately stepped forward to ask: "What's the matter, sir?" "Is there anything I can do to help?"

There was a lot of wine stains on the chest of Gu Mingzong's suit jacket and shirt. He got up and took off his jacket and said, "It's okay. I have a private room on the VIP floor of the hotel. You guys go over and get a change of clothes..."

Fang Jin stood behind Gu Mingzong, leaning against the dining table with his back, blocking his movements with his body.

In a place where no one could see, a mobile phone dropped out of his cuff without a sound. He grabbed it and put it on the side of Gu Mingzong's dinner plate with his backhand. own pocket.

A series of quick and light movements, within a few seconds before and after, he had already got up and left the table.

And behind him, the replacement mobile phone was exactly the same as the real mobile phone of Gu Mingzong that was taken away, and there was not even any difference in degree of newness or oldness.

"...Get your room card from your manager." Gu Mingzong said to the waiter, "I won't go, you can bring it here and I will change it here."

The waiter immediately answered yes, bowed his head and left in a hurry.

"I'm sorry Mr. Gu, I was careless..."

"It's okay," Gu Mingzong said lightly, "You have stained my clothes a lot."

Fang Jin's expression froze, and Gu Mingzong laughed teasingly: "What are you doing in a daze—go."

Fang Jin nodded, and quickly walked through the dining room to the bathroom.

His expression seems normal, but if you look closely, you can see that his lips are so tightly pursed that his expression gives off a rare sharp feeling.

He walked quickly into the bathroom, locked the door behind his back, and took out a thin tablet from the back waist of his shirt.Immediately afterwards, he connected Gu Mingzong's mobile phone and tablet with a data cable, opened the cracking software, and began to quickly unlock the mobile phone password.

——Time is very tight at this moment, and even a short second is extremely precious.

Gu Mingzong has several mobile phones, but the Vertu with all stainless steel embossing must be the one he brings to an international business meeting today.Back then, Fang Jin had the exact same model. He spent the whole night cleaning and refurbishing the case, and then made a little trick on the electronic components, causing the phone to flash the startup screen repeatedly, but it couldn't actually turn on.

When Gu Mingzong was waiting for him, he might pick up his phone and start checking emails, but immediately he would find that the phone couldn't be turned on.At this time, normal people's thinking is to reinstall the battery and restart repeatedly. Few people immediately doubt whether this is their mobile phone, and then start to carefully look at the mobile phone case.

What Fang Jin wanted was this time difference.

Ninety seconds later, the mobile phone was cracked, entered the system, and began to synchronize text messages and emails.Fang Jin stared at the constantly surging information on the screen without moving. The cold light of the tablet computer reflected on his lenses, giving him an inorganic calmness and composure.

The clue to Lu Wenlei's hiding place must be in Gu Mingzong's cell phone.

He wanted to cut into the situation through this point, figure out what the order Gu Mingzong issued behind the scenes was, and stop the avalanche-like collapse of Mingda Shipping, so as to regain control of the current critical situation.

Four minutes and 20 seconds, the synchronization is complete.

Fang Jin uploaded the data to the cloud, restored the phone, and then smashed the tablet into pieces.

There were crisp clicking sounds, and broken glass shards scattered all over the pool.Fang Jin threw the fragments of the tablet computer that was sparking out of the window cleanly, and then flushed the SD card and all the broken glass with water.

After doing all this, he washed his face, and when he looked up, he saw himself in the mirror.

The bright lights reflected on his face, the light blue blood vessels under the skin were clearly visible, and the contours of the facial features appeared extremely deep, and there was an ice-like calmness and determination hidden between his eyebrows and eyes.

"—No, there's nothing strange about it, you might as well be like me..."

Like Gu Mingzong?

...It's ridiculous.

Fang Jin closed her eyelashes covered with water, opened them again after a while, turned around and strode out of the bathroom.

·

In the dining room, Gu Mingzong had already gone to the locker room to change into another shirt, and he was standing in front of the huge floor-to-ceiling windows, looking down at the bustling city under his feet.

Before Fang Jin could reach the table, he turned around and said, "Are you back? Let's go."

"Then I'll pay the bill first..."

"Paid." Gu Mingzong looked at him jokingly, while grabbing the phone and keys on the table and putting them back into his pocket.

Fang Jin's gaze stayed on Gu Mingzong's trousers pocket for half a second, then he looked up at him, and said hesitantly: "But I left the meeting in the middle of the meeting yesterday, and I want to apologize to you when I invite you back today. I'm really sorry, Mr. Gu, I..."

Gu Mingzong leaned leisurely on the edge of the table and said, "Then you should find a different way to make amends."

Fang Jin seemed a little hesitant.

He stood there lightly, with sideburns falling on his cheeks, which made his hair softer and darker and his skin whiter; under the shadow of the lamp, his eyelids were slightly lowered, and the water on his eyelashes was still wet, reflecting a very beautiful image in the candlelight. Fragments of light.

He looks really good, without any rich clothes or accumulation of wealth, just standing there, giving people a pure, thorough, and soul-stirring beauty.

The indifferent look in Gu Mingzong's eyes gradually disappeared, replaced by his eyes sinking, staring at him closely.

Fang Jin sighed: "But... I have nothing in front of you."

There seemed to be a little helplessness in the voice, but then he stepped forward, stretched out his hand on Gu Mingzong's strong shoulder as if very carefully and tentatively, and then took the initiative to hug him.

It was an intimate hug similar to that between lovers, Fang Jin's lips were almost pressed against Gu Mingzong's ear, and the warm air in his breath brushed the side of his neck unreservedly.Gu Mingzong paused for a moment, then laughed lowly, grabbed Fang Jin's hair with his backhand to force him to raise his head, and pressed a kiss on the corner of his lips.

At eight o'clock sharp, fireworks rose outside the window, and brilliant fireworks suddenly burst into the night sky.

The figures of the two people in the light and shadow overlapped for an instant, as if they were really tender lovers; the next moment Fang Jin stretched out his hand and took out the fake mobile phone from Gu Mingzong's trouser pocket, and then the real mobile phone slipped in silently along the cuff.

Everything happened in an instant, the fireworks dissipated, the night sky became silent, Fang Jin stepped back very softly.

His breathing was still a little messy, and he asked, "Can this be considered an apology?"

Gu Mingzong looked at him condescendingly, nodded his head after a while, and said with a smile: "Yes."
