Diamond Marriage: Taming Out-of-Print Cute Wife
Chapter 260 The long-planned revenge!
Le Tiansong was crying, her facial features were about to be twisted together, but helpless, she had already been sent to the guillotine, so she had no chance to defend herself, so she had to move towards them under the leadership of Zhuo Anfeng .
Gu Xiaotian and Gu Xiyang were dealing with several government officials, when Gu Xiyang's eyes swept over to Le Tiansong who was following Zhuo Anfeng, he almost didn't recognize her.
In the next second, he became dumbfounded, and there was unprecedented waves on his originally calm face.
"Uncle." Zhuo Anfeng took Le Tiansong by his hand, and politely greeted Gu Xiaotian.
Le Tiansong was so frightened that he hurriedly buried his head, his thin body trembling slightly, unable to speak a word.
Gu Xiaotian turned his head, his sharp eyes cast aside Le Tiansong, and inadvertently looked at Gu Xiyang's expression.
He smiled lightly, "Well, here we come."
"Uncle, this is my female companion, Miss Le Tiansong." Zhuo Anfeng introduced it deliberately.
The smile on Gu Xiaotian's face became deeper, "Hehe, of course I know, Miss Le should be my daughter-in-law."
Hearing his voice, Le Tiansong thought of those experiences at the New Moon Club again, and trembled with fright. Fortunately, there was Zhuo Anfeng next to her to support her, otherwise she must have passed out.
She raised her face reluctantly, but she happened to meet Gu Xiyang's fiery eyes. He was looking at her with burning eyes, and the expression on his face was also very complicated.
Le Tiansong's heart was startled suddenly, he quickly looked away, and smiled awkwardly at Gu Xiaotian, "Mr. Gu wishes you a happy birthday."
She didn't know what to say, since she came to celebrate her birthday anyway, so it must be right to say happy birthday!
"Haha." Gu Xiaotian smiled heartily, "You shouldn't call me Mr. Gu, you should call me father-in-law, right? After all, you and Xiyang are still husband and wife in name."
For some reason, Le Tiansong unexpectedly feels that the old man in front of him is not as scary as he was in the New Moon Club that day. Maybe this is just an illusion.
"Tian Song, you go back and sit down first, I want to accompany Uncle to greet the guests." Zhuo An leaned into her ear and whispered.
"Oh!" Le Tiansong nodded quickly, and ran away in a hurry.
Gu Xiyang came over and stood beside Zhuo Anfeng, with a smile on his face, but no warmth in his eyes.
"What are you doing, what did you bring her here for?" He asked with a deep voice, a little dissatisfied.
Zhuo Anfeng turned his head and hooked the corners of his mouth, "No way, no one can disobey uncle's orders, and you know that since we were young, the four of us were very afraid of your father."
He looked at Gu Xiyang meaningfully.
****
Gu Xiyang and Zhuo Anfeng followed Gu Xiaotian from left to right, walking around in the banquet hall, saying hello to the guests coming and going.
At this time, a familiar figure swayed beside them.
"Mr. Gu, you look really good today." Xie Yaokai held a champagne glass in his hand, with a hypocritical smile on his face.
Seeing him, Gu Xiyang's soft face became sharp in an instant, "What are you doing here, who let you in!"
"Hey, Mr. Gu, don't be angry." Xie Yaokai raised his eyebrows, and took out the invitation card from his suit pocket, "I came here after being invited by Mr. Gu, no matter what, I'm still a guest." , Is it not good for you to treat me as a guest with this attitude?"
Gu Xiyang just wanted to say something, but was blocked by Gu Xiaotian's eyes.
"Xi Yang, Yao Kai was invited by me. His father, Mr. Xie, and elder brother were my old friends before."
When Gu Xiaotian opened his mouth, Gu Xiyang had no choice but to shut up.
In the business world, there are no permanent friends or permanent enemies. Today you may have a heated argument with someone, but tomorrow you can still have dinner and chat with him at the same table.
The current Xie Group is different from the past. Under Xie Yaokai's management, its assets are constantly shrinking. It has no influence at all on the Tianzun Empire. The reason why Gu Xiaotian did this is to show his great strength to the media. The second is to use the "Huairou Policy" to reflect that their Tianzun Empire has multiple emotions in the mall.
And these considerations were beyond Gu Xiyang's expectation.
Gu Xiaotian smiled faintly at Xie Yaokai, "Yaokai, how is the company's business doing recently?"
Seeing Gu Xiaotian supporting him, Xie Yaokai's expression instantly became arrogant. He looked at Gu Xiyang with disdain in his eyes.
"As long as the Tianzun Empire and Young Master Yang don't come to trouble me, I think our Xie family can still survive."
"Hehehe, what are you talking about?" Gu Xiaotian smiled brightly, "Everyone is very clear about your Xie family's current situation. If you need our help in the future, feel free to ask me and Xiyang. You don't have to care about face."
There was something in Gu Xiaotian's words, and he taunted Xie Yaokai at the right time, Xie Yaokai's face collapsed in an instant, and his face turned livid.
The seats of Gu Xiyang and Zhuo Anfeng were both at the main table in the middle of the banquet hall. The two of them were busy greeting the guests, so naturally there were only two female companions sitting there awkwardly.
Anyway, the situation here is also incompatible with her, Le Tiansong simply sat in his seat and became dazed, and deliberately turned his eyes away so that he would not pay attention to Su Ying who was sitting on the other side of the table.
But even if she forces herself not to care about her in her heart, Su Ying's existence itself is a spot of light. She is more eye-catching than any celebrities and socialites who appeared at this banquet. Her charming figure is matched with this purple floor mop The long dress is as clean as an angel, with just the right makeup, and there is an elegant temperament in every gesture.
She is like a rose flower blooming in the night sky, beautiful, enchanting, and somewhat mysterious.
Compared with this rose, Ode to Lotte is more like a mung bean sprout.
"Song of Heaven."
This embarrassment was finally broken by Su Ying's voice, she called Le Tiansong softly, even her tone was very gentle.
Le Tiansong's meditation was suddenly disrupted, and the whole person returned to reality, looking at her with some embarrassment.
"Hi, hello." She didn't know what to say, so she turned her head around and smiled.
"Did you come with Kishifeng?" Su Ying smiled gently.
"Yeah." Lotte Song nodded expressionlessly.
A little light suddenly flashed in Su Ying's heart. She never expected to meet Le Tiansong on such an occasion. This woman is really a bit of a "lingering ghost", but she can also see that Zhuo Anfeng treats everyone with a kind face. With a bitter face, only when facing the ode to Le Tian, there will be a bit of unprecedented tenderness, which is a very good thing for her.
She squinted her eyes and smiled, and then put on a sorry face, "Tian Song, I'm sorry, I was too emotional at home that day, I shouldn't tell you those things, and I shouldn't tell you those words"
Le Tiansong shrugged his shoulders indifferently, "It doesn't matter, anyway, what you said is the truth, and you have come back, it is impossible for the three of us to live together, there will always be one who wants to quit"
Although her tone sounded calm and breezy, the corners of her eyes and brows were filled with unconcealable sadness.
Now that things have happened, where does she have the right and qualification to compete with Su Ying?
Maybe Su Ying doesn't know the past between her and Gu Xiyang, but she knows that she has already remembered everything, no one knows this relationship better than her, she has no way to continue with Gu Xiyang anymore.
The corners of Su Ying's mouth slightly raised a few degrees, and the expression on her face was much better than before, "Tian Song, I'm really happy that you can fulfill us, and now that the shore wind is taking care of you, I feel more at ease."
Le Tiansong was about to explain her relationship with Zhuo Anfeng to her, but all the lights in the banquet hall were suddenly dimmed.
At eight o'clock in the evening, the birthday party officially began.
Today's emcee is the most famous celebration emcee in China. It is said that his appearances are all charged by the minute.
Wearing a black formal attire, the master of ceremonies slowly stepped onto the stage amidst the applause of the guests and stood among the spotlights.
"First of all, I would like to thank all the distinguished guests for attending our Mr. Gu Xiaotian's [-]th birthday tonight. Before the dinner starts, I suggest that everyone present raise their glasses to wish Mr. Gu a happy birthday and prosperity!"
The energetic voice of the master of ceremonies echoed through the microphone throughout the banquet hall.
Hundreds of guests in the hall stood up in unison in an instant, all holding wine glasses in their hands, watching Gu Xiaotian who was sitting in front of the stage with a relaxed expression on his face.
The master of ceremonies also picked up the wine glass that was handed over by the waiter, and raised it above his head, "Happy birthday to Mr. Gu, long life and prosperity!"
"Happy birthday to Mr. Gu, long life without bounds, prosperity and prosperity!"
Under the guidance of the master of ceremonies, extremely warm congratulations erupted at the scene. The sound effect made the wine in the glass rippling.
Le Tiansong, who was standing by the seat, almost sat down in fright. People who don't know must think that this is another emperor's birthday celebration!
Gu Xiaotian was obviously used to this kind of scene, there was no movement in his eyes, he just waved his hand lightly to express his gratitude, with a soft smile on his face.
The guests were seated again, and the light in the hall brightened.
The master of ceremonies stepped off the stage and walked to Gu Xiaotian's side.
"Mr. Gu, today is your [-]th birthday, do you have anything to say to all of us?"
We all know that Gu Xiaotian is inconvenient to move, so he sat on his "Dragon Chair" throughout the ceremony, with Gu Xiyang and Zhuo Anfeng still by his side. Just this scene alone is already extraordinary.
He coughed a few times into the microphone, and the originally noisy banquet hall became quiet in an instant.
"I am very grateful to all the old friends for showing their face and attending this birthday banquet. Before the dinner starts, I hope that all friends can give me a little more time, because I have a very important thing to announce."
As soon as Gu Xiaotian finished speaking, the scene fell into chaos again. In fact, everyone present knew very well that this birthday dinner was by no means just a simple banquet. Already surpassed this banquet than itself.
At this time, Dacheng, Gu Xiaotian's most trusted disciple, walked in from the door, holding a brown sandalwood box in his hand.
"Everyone knows that when I was 25 years old, I founded the Tianzun Empire." Gu Xiaotian spoke into the microphone again, speaking unhurriedly, "The original Tianzun Empire was just a small company with only a few employees. , It is not bad if the daily income can satisfy me. I have spent my whole life developing it into the current business empire that spans the world and its net assets are rising every day. Help from all friends. I, Gu Xiaotian, have no regrets in my life. My only regret is that I have never been able to enjoy the life of ordinary people. I think everyone knows it very well, so I don’t shy away from it. I am a newcomer now. Chairman of the Monthly Council."
As soon as this sentence came out, the scene immediately fell into restlessness.
We all know the powerful influence of the New Moon Society and the illegality behind the scenes. There is no doubt about Gu Xiaotian's identity as the chairman of the New Moon Society, but no one will bring this matter to the fore. Too loud.
Even Gu Xiyang and Zhuo Anfeng who were sitting beside him looked at each other in shock.
But this atmosphere didn't seem to disturb Gu Xiaotian's rhythm, his old face was still calm and calm.
"I know that many people may have misunderstood our New Moon, but I can tell you with certainty that everyone has their own way of making money. Our New Moon helps assets in Africa and third world countries every year. No less than the United Nations, because we have always adhered to a belief, that is, the word "righteousness"! I have been in this position for so many years, and I know that it is really not easy to hold this position firmly. I know better than anyone that power is like a sharp dagger, the harder you try to hold it, the more it will hurt you. Today, facing so many friends, I have one thing I want to announce to everyone that I will officially retire from the position of chief of the New Moon Society, and this position will be handed over to my only son, Gu Xiyang."
In an instant, it was as if a bomb had been thrown into the entire banquet hall. Everyone's faces were filled with astonishment, and the discussion was one after another, even one after another.
Gu Xiyang is the sole heir of Gu Xiaotian, there is nothing wrong with it, but the New Moon Club is a huge chain of power that people cannot imagine, if Gu Xiyang really takes this seat, then he will be the youngest chairman in the history of the New Moon Club, Coupled with the backing of the Tianzun Empire, his wealth and power can be said to be invincible!
"Father!" Gu Xiyang, who was sitting aside, was already stunned. He lowered his voice, frowned, and his eyes were filled with scarlet anger.
He had just finally been removed from the position of the president of the Tianzun Empire. Now, is Gu Xiaotian going to force him to go to this higher and more involuntary place?
Although he knew from birth that his mission had already been determined, and his path had been planned long ago, but all of this happened too fast and too suddenly!
But Gu Xiaotian didn't show any sign of wavering, he took the sandalwood box from Dacheng's hand, and took out a cube of dark black stone from it.
"The one in my hand is the half-moon seal, the symbol of the highest power of the Crescent Society. The reason why the Crescent Society is named this way is to tell everyone that there will always be surpluses and shortages in wealth and power. Only by maintaining a good attitude can we create the strongest Now, we have also achieved it." Gu Xiaotian turned his head to look at Gu Xiyang, with a somewhat complicated look in his eyes, "Xiyang, where fate comes, we must live up to our mission!"
He handed over the half-moon seal to Gu Xiyang.
The whole audience was engrossed, everyone held their breath, and all their fiery eyes were cast on Gu Xiyang.
Le Tiansong looked at him from afar, looking at the face she used to be most familiar with, but now it was the farthest and strangest face from her.
Gu Xiyang's face is still full of brilliance. Even if he doesn't have any expression and his brows are knit together, he looks different from others. He always has an aura that no one can copy. He is the most special person in this world. exist.
Le Tiansong didn't know what the chairman of the Crescent Club meant, she only knew that Yuko had told her that Gu Xiaotian was the chairperson of the Crescent Club, so if Gu Xiyang took this stone now, he would become the same as Gu Xiaotian person?
She can't imagine.
Gu Xiyang froze there, his cold eyes met Gu Xiaotian's burning eyes.
He didn't know if it was a threat, he made this decision in front of the whole world so that he couldn't refuse.
But what Gu Xiyang knows better is that no matter when Gu Xiaotian makes this decision, he has no way to refuse it. He is Gu Xiaotian's only relative. According to the practice of the New Moon Society, the chairman of this term has the full right to decide who will take over this position. , As for whether that person is qualified to take this seat, that's a matter for later.
In recent years, Gu Xiaotian has also intentionally or unintentionally let Gu Xiyang get in touch with the New Moon Club, all of which are paving the way for today's decision.
He has no right to choose, or in other words, there has always been only this road in front of him, and he has no choice at all.
After a long silence, he stretched out his hand and took the half-moon seal.
"Hahahaha." Gu Xiaotian burst out into a burst of gratified laughter in an instant, and the audience also burst into thunderous applause.
He patted Gu Xiyang on the shoulder, his old face was full of joy, "Son, this is the birthday present I want the most!"
Gu Xiyang didn't speak, but tightly held the half-moon seal in his hand, as if holding his future life.
Now Gu Xiyang already has unlimited wealth and invincible power in his hands. He finally replaced Gu Xiaotian and became the greatest figure of this era!
All the guests had smiles on their faces, and the person they need to curry favor with in the future will soon be Gu Xiyang!
The master of ceremonies excitedly raised the microphone, "Everyone, at this happy moment, we should invite our waiters to roll out cakes for everyone to celebrate Mr. Gu's birthday!
A beam of spotlights hit the entrance of the banquet hall. According to the arrangement, the waiter of the hotel should now roll out an 8-layer cake.
People's eyes are all on the gate, one second, two seconds, three seconds.
It was quiet for a long time, but still no one appeared.
Suddenly, a clear sound of footsteps slowly approached here, which was particularly harsh in the silent atmosphere.
The next second, a figure appeared at the gate, but there was no cake.
****
The man had his hands behind his back, and was wearing a heavy and formal black suit. His slender figure was unusually tall and straight, even with a bit of vigor. Although there was a smile on his face, the smile was hypocritical, even a little bit provocative.
His appearance quickly attracted everyone's attention. Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay, quietly guessing the identity of the visitor.
The man raised his head, and walked towards Gu Xiaotian step by step.
Gu Xiaotian also seemed a little surprised, the smile that was happy just now froze on his lips in an instant, and his eyes were squinted, as if he had already thought a little bit in his heart.
The man stood in front of Gu Xiaotian, condescending, with disdain on his face.
"Mr. Gu, I haven't told you happy birthday yet." He said quietly, his voice was low and hoarse, with a chilling taste.
Zhuo Anfeng stood in front of him, with a bit of indifference between his brows.
"Xu Qian, what are you playing?" Gu Xiyang walked up, looking a little impatient.
This man is none other than Gu Xiaotian's most proud student and his godson Xu Qian.Necessary eyes swept across Gu Xiyang's face, and then he pulled out a bright smile.
"Hehe, Mr. Gu, I'm celebrating my godfather's birthday, how can it be considered a joke?"
The man took a step forward, passed Gu Xiyang, walked in front of Gu Xiaotian, and took out a bunch of white chrysanthemums from behind.
"Godfather, I came too hastily, and I didn't even prepare a gift. Please accept this."
Seeing this bouquet of chrysanthemums, everyone was dumbfounded, even Gu Xiaotian, who has always been very calm, his expression changed obviously!
"What do you mean!" Gu Xiyang didn't hold his breath, rushed up and grabbed Xu Qian's collar, with a fierce look in his eyes.
"Xiyang!" Gu Xiaotian yelled at him, already understanding a little bit in his heart.
Gu Xiyang let go of his hand, looking at this inexplicable person, the expression on his face became very stiff.
The man was already smiling, straightening his ripped collar.
"Godfather, what have you done, you should remember now, right?"
Gu Xiaotian and Gu Xiyang were dealing with several government officials, when Gu Xiyang's eyes swept over to Le Tiansong who was following Zhuo Anfeng, he almost didn't recognize her.
In the next second, he became dumbfounded, and there was unprecedented waves on his originally calm face.
"Uncle." Zhuo Anfeng took Le Tiansong by his hand, and politely greeted Gu Xiaotian.
Le Tiansong was so frightened that he hurriedly buried his head, his thin body trembling slightly, unable to speak a word.
Gu Xiaotian turned his head, his sharp eyes cast aside Le Tiansong, and inadvertently looked at Gu Xiyang's expression.
He smiled lightly, "Well, here we come."
"Uncle, this is my female companion, Miss Le Tiansong." Zhuo Anfeng introduced it deliberately.
The smile on Gu Xiaotian's face became deeper, "Hehe, of course I know, Miss Le should be my daughter-in-law."
Hearing his voice, Le Tiansong thought of those experiences at the New Moon Club again, and trembled with fright. Fortunately, there was Zhuo Anfeng next to her to support her, otherwise she must have passed out.
She raised her face reluctantly, but she happened to meet Gu Xiyang's fiery eyes. He was looking at her with burning eyes, and the expression on his face was also very complicated.
Le Tiansong's heart was startled suddenly, he quickly looked away, and smiled awkwardly at Gu Xiaotian, "Mr. Gu wishes you a happy birthday."
She didn't know what to say, since she came to celebrate her birthday anyway, so it must be right to say happy birthday!
"Haha." Gu Xiaotian smiled heartily, "You shouldn't call me Mr. Gu, you should call me father-in-law, right? After all, you and Xiyang are still husband and wife in name."
For some reason, Le Tiansong unexpectedly feels that the old man in front of him is not as scary as he was in the New Moon Club that day. Maybe this is just an illusion.
"Tian Song, you go back and sit down first, I want to accompany Uncle to greet the guests." Zhuo An leaned into her ear and whispered.
"Oh!" Le Tiansong nodded quickly, and ran away in a hurry.
Gu Xiyang came over and stood beside Zhuo Anfeng, with a smile on his face, but no warmth in his eyes.
"What are you doing, what did you bring her here for?" He asked with a deep voice, a little dissatisfied.
Zhuo Anfeng turned his head and hooked the corners of his mouth, "No way, no one can disobey uncle's orders, and you know that since we were young, the four of us were very afraid of your father."
He looked at Gu Xiyang meaningfully.
****
Gu Xiyang and Zhuo Anfeng followed Gu Xiaotian from left to right, walking around in the banquet hall, saying hello to the guests coming and going.
At this time, a familiar figure swayed beside them.
"Mr. Gu, you look really good today." Xie Yaokai held a champagne glass in his hand, with a hypocritical smile on his face.
Seeing him, Gu Xiyang's soft face became sharp in an instant, "What are you doing here, who let you in!"
"Hey, Mr. Gu, don't be angry." Xie Yaokai raised his eyebrows, and took out the invitation card from his suit pocket, "I came here after being invited by Mr. Gu, no matter what, I'm still a guest." , Is it not good for you to treat me as a guest with this attitude?"

Seeing Gu Xiaotian supporting him, Xie Yaokai's expression instantly became arrogant. He looked at Gu Xiyang with disdain in his eyes.
"As long as the Tianzun Empire and Young Master Yang don't come to trouble me, I think our Xie family can still survive."
"Hehehe, what are you talking about?" Gu Xiaotian smiled brightly, "Everyone is very clear about your Xie family's current situation. If you need our help in the future, feel free to ask me and Xiyang. You don't have to care about face."
There was something in Gu Xiaotian's words, and he taunted Xie Yaokai at the right time, Xie Yaokai's face collapsed in an instant, and his face turned livid.

Le Tiansong was about to explain her relationship with Zhuo Anfeng to her, but all the lights in the banquet hall were suddenly dimmed.
At eight o'clock in the evening, the birthday party officially began.
Today's emcee is the most famous celebration emcee in China. It is said that his appearances are all charged by the minute.

"The one in my hand is the half-moon seal, the symbol of the highest power of the Crescent Society. The reason why the Crescent Society is named this way is to tell everyone that there will always be surpluses and shortages in wealth and power. Only by maintaining a good attitude can we create the strongest Now, we have also achieved it." Gu Xiaotian turned his head to look at Gu Xiyang, with a somewhat complicated look in his eyes, "Xiyang, where fate comes, we must live up to our mission!"
He handed over the half-moon seal to Gu Xiyang.
The whole audience was engrossed, everyone held their breath, and all their fiery eyes were cast on Gu Xiyang.
Le Tiansong looked at him from afar, looking at the face she used to be most familiar with, but now it was the farthest and strangest face from her.
Gu Xiyang's face is still full of brilliance. Even if he doesn't have any expression and his brows are knit together, he looks different from others. He always has an aura that no one can copy. He is the most special person in this world. exist.
Le Tiansong didn't know what the chairman of the Crescent Club meant, she only knew that Yuko had told her that Gu Xiaotian was the chairperson of the Crescent Club, so if Gu Xiyang took this stone now, he would become the same as Gu Xiaotian person?
She can't imagine.
Gu Xiyang froze there, his cold eyes met Gu Xiaotian's burning eyes.
He didn't know if it was a threat, he made this decision in front of the whole world so that he couldn't refuse.
But what Gu Xiyang knows better is that no matter when Gu Xiaotian makes this decision, he has no way to refuse it. He is Gu Xiaotian's only relative. According to the practice of the New Moon Society, the chairman of this term has the full right to decide who will take over this position. , As for whether that person is qualified to take this seat, that's a matter for later.
In recent years, Gu Xiaotian has also intentionally or unintentionally let Gu Xiyang get in touch with the New Moon Club, all of which are paving the way for today's decision.
He has no right to choose, or in other words, there has always been only this road in front of him, and he has no choice at all.
After a long silence, he stretched out his hand and took the half-moon seal.
"Hahahaha." Gu Xiaotian burst out into a burst of gratified laughter in an instant, and the audience also burst into thunderous applause.
He patted Gu Xiyang on the shoulder, his old face was full of joy, "Son, this is the birthday present I want the most!"
Gu Xiyang didn't speak, but tightly held the half-moon seal in his hand, as if holding his future life.
Now Gu Xiyang already has unlimited wealth and invincible power in his hands. He finally replaced Gu Xiaotian and became the greatest figure of this era!
All the guests had smiles on their faces, and the person they need to curry favor with in the future will soon be Gu Xiyang!
The master of ceremonies excitedly raised the microphone, "Everyone, at this happy moment, we should invite our waiters to roll out cakes for everyone to celebrate Mr. Gu's birthday!
A beam of spotlights hit the entrance of the banquet hall. According to the arrangement, the waiter of the hotel should now roll out an 8-layer cake.
People's eyes are all on the gate, one second, two seconds, three seconds.
It was quiet for a long time, but still no one appeared.
Suddenly, a clear sound of footsteps slowly approached here, which was particularly harsh in the silent atmosphere.
The next second, a figure appeared at the gate, but there was no cake.
****
The man had his hands behind his back, and was wearing a heavy and formal black suit. His slender figure was unusually tall and straight, even with a bit of vigor. Although there was a smile on his face, the smile was hypocritical, even a little bit provocative.
His appearance quickly attracted everyone's attention. Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay, quietly guessing the identity of the visitor.
The man raised his head, and walked towards Gu Xiaotian step by step.
Gu Xiaotian also seemed a little surprised, the smile that was happy just now froze on his lips in an instant, and his eyes were squinted, as if he had already thought a little bit in his heart.
The man stood in front of Gu Xiaotian, condescending, with disdain on his face.
"Mr. Gu, I haven't told you happy birthday yet." He said quietly, his voice was low and hoarse, with a chilling taste.
Zhuo Anfeng stood in front of him, with a bit of indifference between his brows.
"Xu Qian, what are you playing?" Gu Xiyang walked up, looking a little impatient.
This man is none other than Gu Xiaotian's most proud student and his godson Xu Qian.Necessary eyes swept across Gu Xiyang's face, and then he pulled out a bright smile.
"Hehe, Mr. Gu, I'm celebrating my godfather's birthday, how can it be considered a joke?"
The man took a step forward, passed Gu Xiyang, walked in front of Gu Xiaotian, and took out a bunch of white chrysanthemums from behind.
"Godfather, I came too hastily, and I didn't even prepare a gift. Please accept this."
Seeing this bouquet of chrysanthemums, everyone was dumbfounded, even Gu Xiaotian, who has always been very calm, his expression changed obviously!
"What do you mean!" Gu Xiyang didn't hold his breath, rushed up and grabbed Xu Qian's collar, with a fierce look in his eyes.
"Xiyang!" Gu Xiaotian yelled at him, already understanding a little bit in his heart.
Gu Xiyang let go of his hand, looking at this inexplicable person, the expression on his face became very stiff.
The man was already smiling, straightening his ripped collar.
"Godfather, what have you done, you should remember now, right?"
