Rong Mochen raised an eyebrow lightly, "Not bad, although you figured it out a bit late."
"..."
Gu Yan was first uncontrollably angry, then suddenly looked pitifully at Rong Mochen, "Boss Rong, I know I’m no match for your intelligence. Can we make a deal? In the future, when situations like this arise, could you give a clearer hint, so I don’t run around foolishly for nothing or waste my efforts."
"Didn’t I give you a hint?" Rong Mochen curled his lips.
Gu Yan twitched the corner of his mouth, couldn’t even get angry at being teased, and sighed as he sank into the sofa.
Rong Mochen lowered his dark lashes, sipped from the teacup, and suddenly said, "Coming."
"..." Gu Yan was stunned and looked at him in confusion, "What?"
Ding-dong——
As soon as Gu Yan opened his mouth, the doorbell rang at the sa ti.
Gu Yan’s expression turned to bewildernt, sitting dumbly on the sofa.
Rong Mochen put down the teacup, got up, and walked toward the bedroom, "Go open the door."
"..."
Gu Yan blinked, "Oh."
Gu Yan, full of questions, opened the door and saw Gu Lingyi with red eyes and a red nose standing there.
Gu Yan froze for a few seconds, the corners of his eyes swept over the hotel slippers on Gu Lingyi’s feet, his baby face quickly flitting through various emotions, finally sinking slightly, he forced a surprised look at Gu Lingyi, "Miss Gu, aren’t you studying abroad, how co..."
Gu Lingyi sniffed with her red eyes, not answering his question, her eyes looking past him into the suite.
Not seeing the person she was thinking of, Gu Lingyi’s eyes dimd, and she said softly, "Brother Mo Chen isn’t here?"
Gu Yan’s eyes deepened, clicking his tongue, "What a coincidence, Boss Rong was just called out by business people to drink."
"Drinking?" Gu Lingyi raised her tear-reddened eyes to look at Gu Yan.
"Yes."
Gu Yan said simply, then asked Gu Lingyi, "Miss Gu, are you also staying at the hotel?"
Gu Lingyi nodded, "I’m staying in the suite next door."
Pressing her lips together, Gu Lingyi looked at Gu Yan, pleading, "When Brother Mo Chen returns, could you tell him that I’m staying next door and have sothing to say to him, could you ask him to co find ?"
Gu Yan nodded with a smile, "No problem, Miss Gu. I will relay the ssage to Boss Rong word for word."
"Thank you." Gu Lingyi said.
Lingering at the door for a few seconds, Gu Lingyi reluctantly turned and walked toward the suite next door.
Hearing the door close next door, Gu Yan bared his teeth, shut the door, and swaggered into the bedroom with his hands in his pockets, leaning at the doorway watching the man puffing smoke by the window, "Miss Gu asked to tell you to visit her next door when you’re done with your social engagent, she wants to talk to you."
As expected, soone made no comnt at all.
Gu Yan pursed his lips, smiled, and walked inside, "That old fox, Director Gu, seems determined to make you his Gu family son-in-law. He’s sending people to track his daughter secretly and now even having soone watch you. Ha, such painstaking efforts."
Rong Mochen exhaled a puff of smoke, squinting at the inky glass window, the face reflected on the window cold and inscrutable.
After a while, not hearing his voice, Gu Yan boredly smirked, speaking to his back, "I’ve delivered the ssage, as for whether you want to visit her or not."
Finished speaking, Gu Yan turned and went to the side room next to the master bedroom, never to erge again.
Not long after Gu Yan entered the room, Rong Mochen’s phone began to vibrate.
Rong Mochen glanced through the glass window at the phone on the bedside table, tapped the cigarette ash with his long fingers holding the cigarette, then walked to the bedside table, as if knowing who was calling, and answered it without looking at the caller ID.
"Mo Chen, it’s your uncle, still not asleep, right?"
A distinct, strong middle-aged man’s voice ca through the phone.
Rong Mochen showed no expression, but his deep, mysterious eyes darkened slightly, "About to sleep."
"..." As Rong Mochen spoke, the other end fell silent.
Rong Mochen didn’t speak again either, put the phone on speaker, and casually tossed it on the bedside table.
"I see, seems like I called at a bad ti, haha."
Rong Mochen unbuttoned his white shirt one by one, revealing a broad, bronze, sexy chest little by little to the air, without responding to the man’s words coming from the phone.
"Mo Chen, Uncle Gu is calling you not for much else. Yiyi, that little girl, I heard ran over to you. I’m worried she’s young, reckless, and doesn’t know any better, might disrupt your important work.
That girl has really been spoiled by her mom and , she didn’t even discuss with us, just rashly decided to go look for you. You tell , sigh, I don’t even know how to handle this girl."
Upon hearing this, Rong Mochen still didn’t speak.
Taking off the shirt and long pants, wearing only black boxer shorts, revealing a well-proportioned and athletic physique to the air, leisurely heading towards the bathroom.
"This girl Yiyi, her mommy and I have no way to control her. Her whole heart is tied to you now, Mo Chen, you must take care of her more, okay?"
The sound of flowing water ca from the bathroom, gradually drowning out the voice coming from the phone.
The next day, Gu Yan was disturbed by a deadly continuous doorbell ringing, impatiently flipping over, jumping up, and with arms akimbo, searched everywhere for his phone. When he found it, damn, it was just 6 in the morning, instantly all sorts of anger surged up.
Pursing his lips, Gu Yan rushed out like King Yanluo’s ghost face, taking a few steps to the door, swiftly opened it, and glared angrily at the person standing there, "Rushing to reincarnate so early!"
"..." The visitor was startled and took a step back, nervously looking at Gu Yan’s disheveled appearance with ssy short hair, stamring, "I, I’m here to find Brother Mo Chen, please call him."
Gu Yan’s face turned dark, even when he saw clearly who was at the door, there was no improvent, he coldly said, "Miss Gu just returned from abroad last night, doesn’t she need to adjust her body clock?"
Gu Lingyi blushed slightly, "I couldn’t sleep."
Gu Yan frowned, staring at the deep dark circles under her swollen eyes, he pursed his lips, and his tone softened, "Boss Rong gets cranky when waking up, it’s best not to disturb him now."
Gu Lingyi’s eyes brightened, looking delightedly at Gu Yan, "Does Brother Mo Chen get cranky when waking up?"
"..." Gu Yan twitched his mouth, why does it feel like she just heard a huge good news, and got excited.
"Yes." Gu Yan said impatiently, "So, Miss Gu should co back later."
Gu Lingyi turned her eyes.
Unnoticed by Gu Yan, she slid past him like an eel.
Gu Yan was stunned, and when he ca to his senses, his face turned green, he took big steps to chase her.
But it was too late, Gu Lingyi had already twisted open the main bedroom door and slipped inside.
Gu Yan was shocked, his sleepiness vanished in an instant as he hurried forward, "Miss Gu..."
Gu Yan’s voice suddenly disappeared when he saw the empty big bed, he gaped in surprise, his mind filled with question marks.
Early in the morning, what’s soone up to?
Gu Lingyi frowned, looking at Gu Yan, "Where is Brother Mo Chen?"
"How would I know?" Gu Yan mumbled.
"Aren’t you Brother Mo Chen’s assistant? You don’t even know the boss’s whereabouts, what kind of subordinate are you?" Gu Lingyi’s tone carried a hint of accusation and condemnation.
Gu Yan heard this, his brows imdiately furrowed tightly, looking at Gu Lingyi.
At this mont, her face unintentionally revealed a superior attitude and lofty air, making Gu Yan burst out laughing, "It’s true I’m Boss Rong’s assistant, but when the boss doesn’t want the subordinates to know his whereabouts, isn’t it normal that the subordinates don’t know?"
On the surface, Gu Yan is Rong Mochen’s assistant, a subordinate, but in reality, Gu Yan sacrificed himself, doing work he doesn’t like.
His relationship with Rong Mochen is not rely that of superior and subordinate, but actually a deeply rooted brotherly friendship.
Gu Lingyi lightly described the relationship between Rong Mochen and Gu Yan as one of boss and subordinate, with a subtle sense of superiority and ostentation, was truly irritating.
Gu Lingyi bit her lips, evidently noticing Gu Yan’s temper, so she remained silent for a while.
When she spoke again, her tone and deanor no longer contained disdain, her eyes towards Gu Yan were also friendly and easygoing, "I’m sorry, I didn’t see Brother Mo Chen and got a bit anxious. I said sothing that upset you, can you not be angry with ?"
Gu Yan kept a smile that didn’t reach his eyes, "Miss Gu is Director Gu’s prized jewel, I’m just a little assistant, whatever Miss Gu says to is as it should be, no need for apologies, huh?"
"Sorry, sorry, I was really anxious just now and spoke without thinking, please don’t say that." Gu Lingyi said anxiously.
Gu Yan smilingly watched her, his doll-like face at this mont contained a chilling sneer.
Gu Lingyi’s eyelashes fluttered several tis, biting her lips and lowering her head, she whispered, "I’m really sorry for disturbing your rest so early. I’ll wait for Brother Mo Chen to co back before visiting again."
Gu Yan raised his eyebrows, extended his hand towards the door, gesturing to "please."
Gu Lingyi seed slightly regretful, bit her lip, and left the suite with her head down.
The mont Gu Lingyi’s figure disappeared from sight, Gu Yan flew back to his room, quickly picked up the phone and dialed soone’s number.
However, after dialing several tis, it was all in a no-answer status.
Gu Yan looked baffled at his phone, early in the morning, where has that person gone?
At this ti, downstairs at Yu Yang Apartnt, a black Infiniti stood silently.
Inside the car, the man had changed his usual dark attire, wearing a blue Monkey hoodie and army green casual down jacket, khaki casual pants, and dark blue casual shoes.
His black short hair, now less structured, appeared fluffy and fresh, complenting his handso and elegant face with exceptional youthfulness.
One hand casually rested on the steering wheel, the other tapped his thigh intermittently.
His deep dark eyes focused on the Yu Yang Apartnt building, occasionally glancing with the corner of his eye at the clock in the car.
When the ti on the car’s clock turned to seven o’clock, the man opened the car door gracefully, got out, and walked towards Yu Yang Apartnt.
