Li Muyan was startled, and put down his blade and fork.

It had been too long. No one had ever spoken to him like this.

It was as if everyone was used to respectfully calling Mr. Li by his name, looking at him with eyes that carried a bit of fear.

As for Gu Qingyao, her eyes were bright and clear, with more courage than anyone else.

This little girl was growing up really fast.

Li Muyan laughed softly, "If it's something I want to do, there might come a day where I will run counter to your plans."

"I will repay all that I owe you and then we will regroup." Gu Qingyao said with certainty.

Li Muyan raised his eyebrows, his expression normal. "I hope that after you find out the truth, you can still be like this."

Gu Qingyao put down her blade and fork, and only after a long while did she speak softly, "I hope so too."

He hoped that it was really an accident and that his father really doted on him.

But Gu Qingyao knew that it was impossible.

The last of the pills had been replaced, and the last words my mother said outside were always like a boulder.

She would never be free until she knew the truth.

"Eat something." Li Muyan said.

Gu Qingyao nodded, just as she picked up her blade and fork, she saw that Xiao Ze's message had arrived.

"The one who is eating with father and Ling Xiaoman is Yue Jingfeng." Gu Qingyao's face was rather unsightly.

She subconsciously looked at Li Muyan, and Li Muyan naturally replied, "According to what I know, the Gu Family and the Yue Family haven't had any sort of cooperative relationship recently."

"I know," Gu Qingyao frowned. "I remember that during this period of time, the Gu Family's Cooperation cases s don't have too many connections with the Yue Clan's business field. Even if they want to cooperate, the Yue Clan can only go along the path of bidding.

When Gu Qingyao said this, it was extremely natural, but she didn't realize that Li Muyan had already put down his knife and fork, and was looking over with interest.

Li Muyan's eyes were deep. After a long while, when Gu Qingyao finished speaking, she realized that Li Muyan had stopped eating for a long time, and was seriously listening to her talk about this.

Li Muyan was silent for a moment, then said with a smile: "You have a great talent for business, even though many things are talk on paper, but to have this kind of awareness, you already surpass your peers by a lot. These thoughts, have you interacted with the Mr. Gu before?"

Gu Qingyao shook her head.

didn't need to say anything in her previous life, as she knew that it was impossible for her to enter the business world. It was impossible for Gu Yanzhi to allow her to enter to make a fool of herself, but in this life …

Gu Yanzhi didn't seem to want himself to enter this realm too early.

"Is it an exchange, but was rejected, or have you never thought of an exchange?" Li Muyan asked.

"I don't have the experience yet. If I rashly enter the business world, I will definitely make my family worry …" Gu Qingyao did not want to tell the complete truth.

"So he was rejected." Li Muyan chuckled and said, "Looks like we should properly investigate Ling Xiaoman's matter."

Gu Qingyao did not speak.

Li Muyan said: "I will not take the initiative to meddle in the Gu family's matters, but Ling Xiaoman, I will help you investigate."

"Thank you." Gu Qingyao said with complicated feelings.

"On the contrary, I need you to do me a favor." Li Muyan looked at Gu Qingyao.

Gu Qingyao slightly nodded. "Go ahead."

"This time, Mr. Gu's Birthday Feast will need a list of participants." Li Muyan said.

Gu Qingyao was silent for a moment, then asked: "Aren't you going to go over personally? It would be easier that way. "

A cold glint flashed past Li Muyan's eyes: "There's no need."

"Alright." Gu Qingyao nodded, "I will give you my name list, do you need me to do anything else?"

"No need." Li Muyan laughed: "That's enough."

Gu Qingyao didn't know why Li Muyan wanted her grandfather, Gu Yuanshan, to attend this meeting, but since Li Muyan had spoken, she would definitely remember it.

They were cooperating, Gu Qingyao reminded herself once again.

When the wine was served, Gu Qingyao sniffed lightly and looked at Li Muyan suspiciously.

A trace of smile flashed across Li Muyan's eyes: "No alcohol content, just a fruit made drink."

"Oh." Gu Qingyao couldn't tell if she was happy or disappointed.

Li Muyan chuckled, "As your uncle, I have the duty to watch over you and not let you drink. After all, Miss Gu's alcohol tolerance is really low."

Gu Qingyao looked at Li Muyan helplessly, and after thinking for a while, she raised her glass and said, "Thank you."

Li Muyan said: "It should be said that we should cooperate to our heart's content."

When he clinking cups, Gu Qingyao's mind was in a trance.

This cooperation should be the right one, right?

She couldn't take another blow.

Li Muyan's gaze was deep and unfathomable.

Very quickly, it was time for the last dessert. Gu Qingyao stood up and went to the bathroom, but she never would have thought that as soon as she walked out of the private room, she would see that the next door also opened.

Yue Jingfeng was walking out with a smile on his face, and was still talking to the people inside, when he saw Gu Qingyao, his gaze immediately became serious: "Miss Gu?"

"Young Master Yue." Gu Qingyao could only smile politely.

"Why is Miss Gu here? Could it be an appointment with Mr. Li? " Yue Jingfeng subconsciously walked forward a few steps and looked into the room.

Seeing that it was indeed Li Muyan, Yue Jingfeng was a little unable to describe the feeling at the bottom of his heart, and could only cough lightly: "As expected, it is Mr. Li."

"Indeed." Li Muyan's eyes were cold and indifferent: "Don't tell me Mr. Yue is drunk?"

"How... How could that be? I was supposed to date Miss Gu, but she said that she already had an appointment with her, and she said that she was with Mr. Li. I didn't expect that we would meet each other here. " Yue Jingfeng's gaze fixated on Gu Qingyao's body, thinking that Gu Qingyao's clothes were too good-looking, right?

Gu Qingyao has changed a lot recently, why does she look better every day?

Yue Jingfeng laughed and said: "Don't forget Miss Gu, you still need to give us the best on Saturday, the place is still here, let's make an appointment in this private room."

Li Muyan said indifferently: "This private room is reserved for shareholders' meeting's people. Does Mr. Yue need my help?"

No matter how slow Yue Jingfeng was, he could tell that Li Muyan's tone was not friendly.

He glanced at the furnishings in the room, and as expected, it was much higher than the room next door. He lightly coughed, and could only say: "So Mr. Li is the shareholder here?"

Li Muyan raised his eyebrows and did not comment.

Yue Jingfeng could only laugh dryly. He looked at Li Muyan for a while, and then used his alcohol gall to ask: "Mr. Li, I want to ask a question, does Mr. Li like Qing Yao?"

Li Muyan stood up, his expression incomparably cold.

Yue Jingfeng was suddenly a little nervous, he had never seen this kind of situation before. Li Muyan's expression, was as though he was about to kill someone, and it made him want to run away.

But there's Gu Qingyao here, that's the girl he likes, how can he be like this in front of Gu Qingyao?

Yue Jingfeng brazenly stood in place, coughed lightly, and said: "Mr. Li, this, this is exactly how I asked …"

"That day Mr. Yue booked a room in advance upstairs, and he even went out several times in the name of going to the bathroom, right? It's already so late, who is Young Master Yue waiting for? "
