Heir [Anti-Rebirth]

After a lot of effort, Gu Liwan finally found out about Gu Lichen's whereabouts. He knew that the other party was in a branch in a big city in the south, and was handling business negligence lawsuits.

Gu Liwan thought about it for a while, and realized that this was Du Ruwei's trick, in order to transfer Gu Lichen away.

He squinted his eyes and was thinking of an idea in his mind. At this moment, his eyes swept away, and his gaze was fixed on the newspaper beside him, and he saw that the cooperation case between Gu Shi and He Shi was reported in a huge space.

The report also said that the two companies have decided to jointly open a restaurant, striving to create a legend beyond the Imperial Dining Room, and the ribbon-cutting ceremony of the restaurant is today.

His eyes lit up instantly, he jumped up immediately, picked up the coat on the side and rushed out of the office, explained to the manager of the restaurant a few times, and then hurried out.

I took a taxi to the place of the ribbon-cutting ceremony. The entrance of the new restaurant was already crowded with many media reporters and spectators.

Gu Liwan got out of the car and stood across the road, waiting patiently.

Time passed by every minute, and not long after, there was a commotion in front of the crowd. It seemed that important people were present, which attracted media reporters to ask questions.

At the entrance of He's and Gu's new restaurants, a temporary stage was set up for the ribbon-cutting ceremony. The stage was not high, but it was enough for Gu Liwan, who was standing across the road, to see the people on the stage clearly.

Gu Liwan raised his hand and looked at his watch. It was almost time. When he looked up, someone really walked onto the stage.He took a closer look, but it wasn't He Zhishu, nor Du Ruwei.

Then another person came onto the stage. This time, Gu Liwan recognized this person. It was his former assistant, Liu Xin.

Gu Liwan frowned, and used the "walls have ears" skill to hear the conversation between Liu Xin and another person clearly. It turned out that these two people were going to sign the contract on behalf of the He family and the Gu family.

Gu Liwan was very surprised. The newspaper clearly stated that both He and Gu valued this cooperation, so why did they only send assistants to attend the ribbon-cutting ceremony?

Besides, although Liu Xin is his assistant, he can't represent the Gu family. Did Du Ruwei send Liu Xin to slap the He family in the face?

He quickly opened the skill block again, and used "Confess his heart" on the two people on the stage.

He first listened to Liu Xin's inner thoughts, and only then did he know that Du Ruwei had also been there, but He Zhishu didn't show up, and only sent a small manager.

So in a fit of anger, Du Ruwei asked Liu Xin to play instead of him, and hid in the car to rest by himself.

Liu Xin also kept complaining about the He family, thinking that the He family was really dishonest, how could he send only a small manager on such an important occasion?It was clear that he was perfunctory to Mrs. Gu.

Gu Liwan didn't want to hear him whining anymore, so he turned to "confide his heart" on another person.

Unexpectedly, this hearing made him "hear" He's secret.

He immediately stood up straight, listening to the man's inner thoughts, listening, unconsciously smiling, applauding He Zhishu's plan in his heart.

At the same time, he also sympathized with Du Ruwei, and he was so tricked by He Zhishu that he didn't even know it.

It turns out that this cooperation is a "game", a game specially set up by the He family for the Gu family, and also a game by He Zhishu to find out the traitors of the He family.

The manager who attended on behalf of the He family was actually He Zhishu's confidant, but outsiders didn't know it, and even Du Ruwei thought that the other party was sent by the He family to perfuse Gu.

Gu Liwan snorted coldly in his heart, he really overestimated Du Ruwei before.

What He Zhishu did today was actually a test for Du Ruwei, or it could be said to be a chance for Du Ruwei.If Du Ruwei hadn't underestimated the manager, then He Zhishu could still take a look at Du Ruwei.

However, Du Ruwei didn't understand the intention of He Zhishu. He only saw He's sending out a small manager, so he thought he was underestimated by He's, and sent an assistant angrily, just to humiliate him.

Gu Liwan frowned and shook his head. Du Ruwei held his face, but acted in such a shameful manner. He was so petty. It really discredited Gu Shi and made people look down on Gu Shi.

He had to find a way to change his face back as soon as possible, otherwise, if Du Ruwei continued to mess around with the Gu family, the Gu family would not be able to last for a few years, and Du Ruwei would ruin him.

Gu Liwan made up his mind, took one last look at the ribbon-cutting stage, turned and left the venue.

After he left, the person who was watching him by the window on the second floor of the restaurant across the road also looked back.

"What are you looking at?" He Zhishu had just looked away when Feng Jingxuan asked curiously.

"It's nothing." He Zhishu said lightly, the scene he saw just now appeared in his mind.

The owner of Zhenweizhai, Ye Yufang, stood alone across the street, just staring at this side, with an incomprehensible expression on his face.

But the eyes are so bright.

For the second time, He Zhishu felt a burning feeling in his heart because of a person's eyes.

The first person who gave him this feeling was the second youngest of the Gu family, Gu Liwan.

He didn't expect that he would find the same eyes as Gu Ershao in another person, and even his temperament was so similar.

He was a little absent-minded, but immediately suppressed the touch in his heart, Ye Yufang was not Gu Liwan, he shouldn't be looking for Gu Liwan's shadow on Ye Yufang.

Even if the current Gu Liwan no longer has the temperament of the past, Ye Yufang still can't become the Gu Liwan in his mind.Lost is lost, changed is changed, no matter how similar a person is, it is just a substitute.

He Zhishu felt a little melancholy in his heart. He had already planned that when the matter of the imperial dining room was settled, he would start to approach Gu Liwan slowly.

But before he had time to act, the Gu Liwan he admired disappeared. ...

******

After Gu Liwan left the restaurant, he did not return to Zhenweizhai.After thinking about it, he took out He Zhishu's business card, and after thinking about it, he dialed He Zhishu's mobile phone number.

The bell rang for a long time, but no one answered. Gu Liwan's heart sank. Did He Zhishu give you a fake number?Or... is He Zhishu unwilling to answer his call?

There were countless guesses in his mind, but the phone was never connected.

In the end, he sighed, hung up the phone, tore He Zhishu's business card in two, and threw it in the trash can by the road.

He thought that he and He Zhishu had already become friends in the pavilion of S University last time, otherwise why would the other party give him a business card?I didn't expect that I was being passionate. It seems that Young Master He doesn't want to have any contact with him anymore.

Gu Liwan laughed at himself, yes, he is just the owner of a small restaurant now, how could He Zhishu, as the person in charge of the He family, associate with him.

He let out a sigh of relief and wandered the streets casually.

Just when he finally calmed down and was about to return to Zhenweizhai, his cell phone rang.

He took out his mobile phone from his trouser pocket and glanced at it, and his movements froze immediately.

The calling number was very familiar, he had just seen it not long ago, it was on the business card he tore off.

Unexpectedly, He Zhishu called back.

He took a deep breath, and pretended to be connected calmly, "Hello, I am...Ye Yufang." He almost blurted out his name out of habit, but fortunately he reacted in time and changed his words to now pseudonyms used.

"Hello, I'm He Zhishu." He Zhishu's unique cold voice came from the other end of the phone. Gu Liwan found that He Zhishu's voice on the phone was a little different from usual, and it seemed to be gentler.

"Sorry, I was dealing with something just now, what can I do for you?" He Zhishu didn't hear Gu Liwan's words, he was silent for a while, and then he opened his mouth to explain.

"Ah...it doesn't matter." Gu Liwan came back to his senses, said quickly, paused, and then said in a calm tone: "I just happened to be near the bridge and road, and saw your new restaurant opened today. I wanted to congratulate you."

"Thank you." He Zhishu thanked lightly.

Afterwards, the two remained silent. Gu Liwan didn't know what to say, and He Zhishu was not the one who opened the mouth, so the atmosphere felt awkward.

"Are you still around now?" Although He Zhishu's rationality kept telling himself to stay away from Ye Yufang, his mouth couldn't help asking.

"En." Gu Liwan's heart skipped a beat for no reason, and he responded.

"The restaurant is newly opened today. I wonder if I have the honor to treat you to lunch?" He Zhishu's tone was light, and he couldn't tell if it was a polite gesture or he really wanted to treat him to dinner.

Gu Liwan was stunned, hesitated for a moment, and then agreed, "It's my honor."

After making an appointment with He Zhishu, Gu Liwan turned around and walked back to the restaurant just now. The ribbon-cutting ceremony has been completed and the restaurant has officially opened. There are already many guests inside.

When the waiter saw Gu Liwan, he immediately came forward. Hearing the private room number reported by Gu Liwan, his attitude immediately became more polite, and he respectfully led him to the second floor of the restaurant.

When we came to the private room at the end of the corridor on the second floor, the waiter knocked on the door politely, and someone opened the door soon. Gu Liwan glanced at it, and it was another waiter in uniform.

The waiter led Gu Liwan into the private room, but the waiter who took the seat did not enter the private room, but turned and left.

After Gu Liwan walked into the private room, he saw He Zhishu sitting at the table. He Zhishu looked indifferent, leaning on the back of his chair and looking out the window.

"Young Master He." Gu Liwan greeted him, and He Zhishu turned around and nodded to him.

"Sit down." He Zhishu said lightly, seeing that Gu Liwan was still a little embarrassed, he added, "Be casual, don't be so polite."

Gu Liwan smiled, but his heart did not relax, it was still full of tension.

"Congratulations on winning No.3." After Gu Liwan sat down, He Zhishu suddenly said, and Gu Liwan accepted the belated congratulations with a smile.

"Zhenweizhai is very good." Then, He Zhishu uttered a sentence without beginning or end, but Gu Liwan understood it strangely.

He smiled modestly, but the meaning in his words was not very modest, "I will catch up with you soon."

He Zhishu raised his eyebrows, and then looked straight at Gu Liwan.

"Hehe, I'm ambitious." He Zhishu chuckled, a rare smile that made Gu Liwan look dumbfounded.
