650 His Face Darkened!
A few days later.
Wisdom Cloud Galaxy’s Director Zhang and Gu Lang came again, hand in hand.
From their satisfied looks, it was clear that they were very confident in persuading Ning Yiyuan this time.
That’s right!
On one side was a huge country, on the other side was a mere woman. Even a fool would know which was more important, right?
“City Lord Ning, what do you think?” As he sat down, Director Zhang’s smile became more and more amiable, but the light in his eyes could not be ignored.
Gu Lang, who was behind him, was still trying to please him. His humble and greedy expression was completely revealed!
Ning Yiyuan picked up his glass of water, covering the sneer on his face. If he had not found out the truth, he would never have thought that the Gu Family’s lead actor was so good at acting that he almost fooled all of them!
“There’s no hurry.” Ning Yiyuan swallowed his water and smiled at Director Zhang. Then he suddenly turned to Gu Lang. “By the way, Master Gu, Little Chu has always wanted to know more about her mother. Why don’t you tell me?”
The topic changed so quickly that Gu Lang was stunned for a few seconds. There was a trace of shock and guilt in his eyes. Did Ning Yiyuan really notice something?
Otherwise, why would he suddenly ask this question?
“What’s wrong?”
Even though Gu Lang reacted quickly and his expression only showed a second of weakness, Ning Yiyuan still noticed it.
He could not help but flash a meaningful smile. “Is this question that difficult to answer?”
“No, of course not!” Gu Lang shook his head firmly, but his heart tightened when he saw Ning Yiyuan’s slightly curved lips.
He suddenly realized that he was being too aggressive, so he relaxed a little and took a step back. “I just don’t know what kind of information you want to know. Besides, Little Chu’s mother was only a distant relative. I don’t know much about the specific situation…”
Hehe!
He wanted to shirk all his responsibilities with just a sentence of collateral branch. He was really scheming!
But if he was not like this, how could he have deceived so many of them?
Just as Ning Yiyuan was about to speak, a woman’s voice spoke first.
“Is that so?”
Everyone looked over in a daze.
Mo Chu was slowly walking down the stairs.
There was an impeccable smile on her delicate little face, but the way she looked at Gu Lang made his heart tremble.
“Why did you come down?” Ning Yiyuan hurriedly went up and held Mo Chu’s hand attentively, his handsome face full of heartache.
Last night, he had caused too much trouble and only let Mo Chu off in the early hours of the morning. When he woke up this morning, the little girl was still sleeping soundly!
“Did we wake you up?”
Ning Yiyuan helped Little Chu up without a trace, his attitude was so pleasing and considerate, but in the end, he only received an angry look from the other party!
Hmph! It’s all that beast’s fault!
Feeling the soreness and weakness in her waist and legs, Mo Chu’s face was practically covered in tears. If she had known that Wisdom Cloud Galaxy’s people would come to her door today, she would not have let him go too much last night!
Bastard!
It’s not like he’s never eaten meat before, so did he have to be so vicious? When she woke up this morning, she almost fell to her knees on the bed!
Seeing this, Director Zhang could not help but frown.
As the saying goes, ‘A tiny clue reveals the big picture’.
Looking at Ning Yiyuan’s current state, was he really willing to use Mo Chu as a bargaining chip in exchange for their Wisdom Cloud Galaxy’s support?
Director Zhang was originally very determined, but now he could not help but waver.
“Little Chu, what’s wrong? are you not feeling well?”
Gu Lang really did not let go of any opportunity to show off. He immediately showed his concern when he saw Ning Yiyuan’s careful posture.
Unfortunately, this false pretense was completely exposed in Mo Chu and Ning Yiyuan’s eyes.
“Master Gu, didn’t you just say that you don’t know much about my mother?” Mo Chu sat opposite the two of them. Her gentle and beautiful face revealed a faint sense of intimidation. “It’s alright, just tell me what you know.”
She wanted to know how Gu Lang could continue.
“This…” Gu Lang hesitated for a moment and the uneasiness in his heart grew stronger, but he had to force himself to continue.
“Your mother was a very gentle girl. She had straight black hair, beautiful eyes, and she looked a lot like you….”
“But my brother said that mother always had curly hair!”
Mo Chu raised his eyebrows and looked at Gu Lang in a daze with suspicion.
A ‘thud’ was heard!
Gu Lang’s heart skipped a beat!
Without thinking, she changed her tone and followed Mo Chu’s words. “Umm… she might have changed her hairstyle later on!”
“Oh~”
Not bad! His reaction was quite fast!
“What else?” Mo Chu lifted her eyes and continued to ask. Her curious and innocent look gradually made Gu Lang let down his guard. Unfortunately, the series of questions that Mo Chu threw out next made him dumbfounded.
“What does my mother like to wear and what does she like to eat?”
“Does she have any hobbies?”
“How did she meet my father?”
…
Gu Lang’s mouth moved. He wanted to continue making things up, but these questions were too detailed. If there was a mistake, it would be easily exposed like before. He might as well not answer!
“Oh, right! My mother is from a branch family. Why would a family head with such a heavy workload like you care about these trifling matters?”
Mo Chu immediately snatched the reply that he was about to say and even gave him a checkmate. “It’s alright, there should be someone who knows about this in the Gu Family, right? Contact him and ask him to tell me about it!”
Gu Lang’s face instantly darkened when he heard this.
