Part Two: Dongtu Datan Chapter 36: Jealousy

Tinglan. 。Listening because of her mother's illness, Lin Zhifei hesitated several times before suggesting: "Shushu, I know you don't want to part with her, but Aunt's situation now requires someone b...It had probably been another week since she last saw Song Jingye. One time, when she and Gu Ruandong went to the Baoli Club for dinner, a figure flashed past the doorway of their private room. She immediately recognized it as Song Jingye because her aura didn't quite match the atmosphere of the Baoli Club, making her stand out.

Gu Ruandong, while serving her dishes, asked, "What are you looking at"

"I think I saw Song Jingye."

Gu Ruandong frowned: "Master Gu, is it appropriate to mention other men in front of me"

Lu Yaoyao purposely smiled without saying a word. Was it wrong for her to allow so many admirers around him Couldn't she have one male companion of her own, even if he was a bit strained and like a stranger

"Do you still keep in touch"

"Yes, there is." Actually, there isn't.

For some reason, every time Lu Yaoyao thought of Song Jingye, the image that popped into her head was still that of a chubby little kid. Although she had met him several times before, he had nothing to do with the "fatty" in her mind. Thinking about this, she couldn't help but smile.

"Lu Yaoyao, don't go too far!"

Seeing her smile, he raised an eyebrow at her and gave her a warning look. He was trying to figure out if there was any truth to what she said about them still being in contact. This girl was starting to play mind games with him now, and sometimes he couldn't tell if she was being genuine or not.

Given Song Jingye's identity and what he's doing, he shouldn't be in contact with her. But looking at her expression, it seems like there might be a connection between them after all.

What worries her is that Song Jingye keeps contacting her, what is his purpose

So when I met Song Jingye again, after we finished talking business, he took the initiative to ask, "Yao Yao said that you've been in touch with her all along"

Song Jingye was taken aback and smiled, "She said that"

Gu Ruandong knew he had been tricked by the little girl. In his heart, she was just a child, and he never thought she would dare to deceive him.

"Speaking of her, I want to remind you that we've almost collected all the evidence against Wang Binghai, and we'll be closing in on him soon. As for you, since there was no direct financial dealings between us, I will delete your information when submitting it. However, after Wang Binghai is arrested, whether he'll confess to implicating you out of desperation, I can't guarantee. So it's best that you go to Beijing and inform the old man in advance, just in case."

Wang Binghai is the biggest person in charge of Senbing Industrial Group. Taking advantage of his position, he not only cooperated with illegal raw material suppliers but also privately sold weapons to some war-torn countries. But after the Baojia incident a few years ago, he became very cautious. He had his subordinates do everything and didn't leave any trace himself.

So Song Jingye could only investigate those below him before, unable to take action against him. It was not until Gu Ruandong provided the information, which was evidence of his most rampant period left behind in his early years, that he hit the bullseye.

Song Jingye is a person who clearly distinguishes between public and private matters. When Gu Ruandong invited him out for a detailed conversation, the two engaged in a contest. Gu Ruandong's only requirement for providing materials was that he not be implicated.

Song Jingye replied, “As long as you are innocent, I will never wrongly accuse an honest person.”

Gu Ruandong: "Of course."

So after investigating the whole incident, he kept his promise at the time and didn't get involved, deleting all information about him.

But now that Gu Ruandong is half of the Lu family, in a sense, he and the old man are one. They rise and fall together, so whether Wang Binghai will bite onto Gu Ruandong for self-preservation at that time, attempting to get the old man to solve the problem, is completely unpredictable.

This is Song Jingye.

His last, and most sincere, advice.

"I know." Gu Ruandong also planned to return to Beijing and explain things to his grandfather in person.

"Lately, you should be especially careful around people. Wang Binghai is a very cunning and treacherous person with a high level of alertness."

"Hmm."

They were able to delay Wang Binghai from running away because Gu Ruantong sent Bao Sang and others to stall for time with Wang Binghai, making him believe that the evidence was still in Bao Sang's hands. As long as he could silence Bao Sang, he would be safe.

To reach his position, sometimes it's not a lack of vigilance, but a sense of complacency. He's reluctant to let go of the top spot, believing he can still control everything and escape any danger unscathed.

As the two parted, Song Jingye suddenly turned back to Gu Ruandong and said, "You should probably strengthen security around Yao Yao."

Gu Ruandong's expression was languid, but his eyes suddenly sharpened as he looked at him: "Mr. Song, you are meddling too much. Also, please call her Mrs. Gu."

Song Jingye was so angry that he could kill someone: "She seems to dislike this title!"

After saying that, he left when Gu Ruandong gave him a murderous glare, leaving behind an upright and righteous figure.

Fortunately, Gu Ruandong remained calm and was confident in his relationship with Lu Yaoyao, so he wasn't swayed. However, when they were going to bed that night, he couldn't help but ask: "Why don't you like the term 'Gu Tai'" Lu Yaoyao was puzzled: "I don't dislike it. I just think calling him 'Gu Tai' makes him sound old."

That is true, but Gu Ruandong still emphasized: "Although you don't have to call me Mrs. Gu, you should be aware of the responsibilities that come with being Mrs. Gu."

"Oh." She was too self-aware, which is why she was completely at his mercy.

She also planned to frequently surprise him in the future, just to keep him on his toes.

Gu Ruandong heard her unconvincing "oh," feeling a bit helpless. It was like watching a child grow up, no longer as easy to manipulate.

He wanted to return to Beijing to see his grandfather and asked her if she was going. She flatly refused, "No."

The reason is simple, Lu Kuo is now so proud that everyone knows he's going to be a father. They got married on the same day, and her stomach hasn't shown any signs yet. Going back to Beijing wouldn't she just be walking into a trap

Therefore, I will definitely not go.

Gu Ruandong was mentally prepared, as expected, before getting down to business, the old man urged him to have a child.

Gu Ruan Dong smiled: "I'll try my best."

Actually, I tried really hard before, but maybe our fate wasn't meant to be. Recently, he's been seriously practicing contraception, and the current situation isn't suitable for pregnancy. Let's talk about it again after a while.

Gu Ruandong: "Lu Kuo is my brother, it's normal for him to have a child first."

The old man said, “He doesn’t know how to show off in front of Yaoyao.”

The old man is truly biased; he hopes that YaoYao will get her way in this matter and doesn't want her to suffer any grievance.

After lunch, the old man called him to his study to discuss serious matters. Knowing that he had come to talk about something important, he took it very seriously.

The old man listened to him finish explaining the whole story, but he didn't say anything. He only asked two questions:

Are you really innocent

Gu Ruan Dong answered yes.

Can you solve Wang Binghai's problems

Gu Ruandong answered yes.

The old man said, “I understand. Just do your own thing.”

The old man believed him unconditionally, based solely on his two-word answer: yes! can!

Gu Ruandong considers himself a cold-hearted person.

But to receive such trust from the old master is also touching, adding a heavier sense of responsibility. No one can stop him from walking towards the sun.

After finishing their business, he hurried back to Senzhou in the afternoon.ng was the person appointed by his superiors to cooperate with. He could only swallow his anger and say nothing. 。The little underhanded plot between the three was completely unknown to the others at...
