Can't tell the truth from the fake

Lu Xi opened his eyes and looked at the unfamiliar furnishings in the room, feeling a little dazed for a moment.

After a long time, he gently rubbed his aching temples after a hangover, and finally remembered that yesterday was Gu Wen's birthday. Because he was too happy and excited, he mixed beer with liquor and Ji Chong for many glasses. I drank too much...

He couldn't remember how he left the dining table and lay on the bed.

"Are you awake?" Gu Wen gently opened the door and walked in. He put a cup of warm milk on the bedside table, "You drank too much last night, a cup of milk will make you feel better."

"How did I get here? I can't even remember." Lu Xi hammered his temples in frustration, and then Gu Wen grabbed his hands.

"I carried you back." Gu Wen looked at him with a smile, with a hint of warmth.

Lu Xi froze for a moment, his cheeks turned red at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Gu Wen patted Lu Xi's slightly curly black hair and said, "Today, you can rest here first, and you won't go to work."

"I'm fine." Lu Xi shook his head, pushed away the quilt and stood up from the bed, "I just got dizzy when I woke up, but I'm fine now!"

Gu Wen sighed and seemed a little helpless: "That's fine, I just happen to have a document that I need you to deal with today."

"Okay! Then I'll go wash up first."

Gu Wen looked at Lu Xi's back as he walked towards the bathroom, his deep eyes glowed with complicated light.

The black car sped past on the highway in City G. At 9:35, the two stood together in Gu Wen's office.

"This document involves the cooperation with Feixing Company next month. It needs to be processed urgently. It is very important to put away other work on hand first." Gu Wen handed over a stack of printed documents in the drawer to Lu analysis.

Lu Xi took it and asked curiously: "When do you want it?"

"Tomorrow at noon at the latest." Gu Wen took out the myopia glasses from the glasses case and wiped them lightly with a glasses cloth. "The work task may be a bit heavy."

"It's okay, I'll definitely finish it!" Lu Xi clenched his fists at Gu Wen as a cheering gesture.

Gu Wen put on his glasses, the lenses reflected a blue-purple light, and it was difficult to figure out the look behind the lenses.He patted Lu Xi on the shoulder, with a rare solemn tone: "This document is more important. I don't trust it to others, so I can only work hard on you."

Lu Xi was a little moved, he waved the document in his hand and walked out: "In that case, I'll go to the next door first, and I will definitely get it done seriously!"

Standing behind him, Gu Wen heard the closing sound of the door of the office next door, and gently closed the door of his own office, then took out his mobile phone and dialed Song Yuewen's number.

Time passed by, and it was already noon when Lu Xi looked up from the documents piled up on the desk.

He touched his sunken belly, looked at the work that had only been completed in a small part, sighed and continued to sort out the files.

Suddenly his mobile phone sent out a text message notification tone. He took out his mobile phone and clicked on the unread message to find that it was a series of strange numbers with no attribution, and the format of the phone number was different from the usual phone number.

Lu Xi thought it was an advertisement, and after he opened it casually, the blood on his face faded in an instant.

He squeezed the phone tightly, his fingertips trembling constantly, and it became cold little by little.

——The information came from the Golden Snake Group that hadn't appeared in his life for a long time.

It was so long that he almost forgot the burly middle-aged man who appeared at his home when he was in the United States.

It was so long that he couldn't remember what request he had promised the other party.

He looked at the document that Gu Wen handed over to him for processing, and combined with this information, he suddenly realized something.

He finally understood why Gu Wen told him such inexplicable words that he was worried about leaving it to others.

——He had just received this job in the morning, and now only a few hours had passed, and Jin Snake had already received the news.

Lu Xi's heart slowly became heavy. He didn't even know which of the people he came into contact with was Jin Snake's eyeliner buried in Gu Wen's company.

He looked at the message with the golden snake logo, and resolutely pressed the delete button.

He can't live up to Gu Wen's trust in him.

But at this moment, his cell phone rang again.

A bad premonition welled up in Lu Xi's heart. He tremblingly clicked on the final message, closed his eyes, and bit his lower lip tightly. The corners of his lips slowly dripped with blood.

This time it was a threat.

Sure enough, it was the Golden Snake style he was familiar with.

Nothing changed from that year.

If he does not complete this task, this task will be handed over to someone else.And he will be recalled to the US headquarters, if he does not come back on time, he will bear the consequences.

That "other" is another traitor who is buried in Gu Wen's company and holds a lot of power.

who's that person?

Lu Xi kept recalling the conversation he had with the middle-aged man who gave him the task in the United States at that time. He frowned, and every sentence came to mind, without missing every detail.

Soon, he found the answer he wanted——

Song Liwen.
