Chapter 48 Unexpected Discovery
Gu Chu looked at Gu Wan with a faint smile. “In this world, nothing can be gained without hard work. I’ve been following up on the project all this while. What right do you have to take it? Moreover, do I look like a generous person? So, I’m asking you nicely to withdraw from it.”
She emphasized the word “nicely”, hoping that Gu Wan would understand. If she didn’t agree, then she had nothing more to say.
So, please don’t challenge her patience!
Gu Wan was panicking. Her mother had got her this project by exchanging conditions with Feng Jia in order to help her gain a foothold in the Gu Corporation. But now, Gu Chu is asking her to let go of it?
What right does she have?!
She closed her eyes. She also knew that there was no room for negotiation, so she said, “Okay.”
Since she agreed, there was nothing else to talk about.
Gu Chu’s gaze fell on her leg. “I think your leg is fine, so you can take a taxi and leave.”
Gu Wan bit her lower lip. She had wanted to ride on Feng Jia’s car. “Also,” Gu Chu added, “Bring the two sisters with you. Although Meng Lang likes to mess around, he’s not stupid. Why don’t you take a look at them first before they seduce him?”
After Gu Wan left, Gu Chu leaned on the back of the sofa and said lazily, “Who’s eavesdropping? Come out!”
The room was silent.
She said in a low voice, “Why? Do you need me to say it nicely?”.
A few seconds later, Qiao Qiao came out with a look of embarrassment.
Initially, she wanted to go after Meng Lang, but she was a step slower and could not catch up.
Later, she went back and planned to wait for Meng Lang here.
When she returned, the atmosphere was tense.
So, she had to find a place to hide.
She asked awkwardly, “How did you know I was here?”
“I accidentally caught a glimpse of the corner of your clothes.”
Qiao Qiao: “…”
She was dressed extravagantly, so the hem of her clothes showed.
She said, “I’m sorry, I didn’t do it on purpose.”
Gu Chu looked at her with her deep eyes. “Shut your mouth.”
Actually, she didn’t hear much and quickly nodded. “Okay.”
Moreover, she hated the two girls who came with Gu Wan. Now that Gu Chu had helped her get rid of them, she wanted to thank her instead.
She pursed her lips. “I have something to say. I don’t know if I should say it.”
“What?” Gu Chu looked up at her. “Say it.”
“Gu Wan actually twisted her ankle on purpose. I saw that she stepped into the pit and then pretended to fall into it.”
Gu Chu had already guessed this. This must be their plan.
She let out a faint “Oh.”
Qiao Qiao added, “Actually, I think she looks a little familiar. I think I’ve seen her somewhere before, but I can’t remember where.”
Gu Chu raised her eyebrows. “Are you serious?”
She nodded. “I don’t have to lie to you.”
At first glance, she felt that Gu Wan looked familiar.
Gu Chu rolled her eyes. So it was just an act. It was quite intriguing to know that she’d seen her before.
Meng Lang actually found a random woman who gave her such a big surprise. She didn’t pamper him for nothing!
She took out her phone. “Let’s add each other on Wechat.” After adding her, she said, “In the future, if you think of any clues, tell me. Don’t worry, I will treat you well.”
Qiao Qiao’s eyes lit up. “Okay!”
Just then, Feng Jia came back.
Qiao Qiao was a little afraid of him, so she quickly ran away. “I’ll go find Meng Lang.”
Gu Chu looked at him coquettishly. “It’s all your fault. You scared Qiao Qiao away. I wanted to hear her sing.”
He touched her forehead and found that her fever had subsided. He handed her the medicine. “Take this. I’ll take you back home.”
Gu Chu hummed. “Feed me.”
Feng Jia: “…”
She’s doing it again.

After eating, she leaned forward and hooked her arms around his neck. “Carry me.” He held her waist and carried her.
He carried her all the way to the passenger seat.
When he got into the car, she asked curiously, “What did you do just now?”
Feng Jia started the car. “Your cousin called me because of Wang Xiao.”
Gu Chu was even more curious. “What about him?”
“He hid it from his family and applied to join the anti-terrorist special forces. He passed the tests, but his family objected.”
Gu Chu nodded. “I think that even if his family objected, he would still go.”
After all, this had always been Wang Xiao’s dream.
