"You know, boss, he’s your love rival."
"Ais." Shangguan Yu spoke in a deep voice.
"..." The two of them were stunned, and after rembering who Ais was, they suddenly widened their eyes.
"Ais? Ais from Holy City? The one whose goods we seized?"
Seeing Shangguan Yu’s serious expression, the person realized the severity of the situation.
"So, is he pursuing Miss Gu with ulterior motives?"
"Motives for what?" Li Ge, standing beside, hadn’t thought that far.
"Of course, to get back at the boss through Miss Gu."
"No way, what kind of status does Miss Gu have? And the boss? No matter how great Ais is, he’s just a local thug in Holy City. Even with eight hundred guts, he wouldn’t dare do such a thing. Besides, the boss isn’t even interested in Miss Gu, how could there be revenge? You watch too many dramas."
"True, so could it really be love then?"
"Alright, stop arguing." Shangguan Yu interrupted their wild speculations.
"So, boss, are you going to handle this?"
"Handle what? How?" Shangguan Yu replied irritably.
Of course, he wanted to handle it, but in what capacity could he do so?
Moreover, Ais neither stole nor robbed, what reason did he have to interfere?
"If you don’t care, why did you want to get this surveillance? Besides, whether Ais genuinely likes Miss Gu or has other motives, isn’t him being a dangerous character with Miss Gu sowhat unsafe for her?"
"How about we tell Gu Ershao? Gu Ershao is also a tough character; when it cos to his sister’s affairs, he’ll definitely manage." Li Ge chid in.
"Why are you ddling in people’s friendships?" Shangguan Yu snapped his laptop shut with a loud clap.
"Uh... wasn’t it you, boss, who wanted us to get this surveillance..."
"Get out!"
After driving the two away, Shangguan Yu lay on the bed feeling restless.
He wanted to inform Gu Sheng, so Gu Sheng could warn Ais, but he was afraid Gu Sheng would cause a big scene in his madness.
After much thought, Shangguan Yu still called Gu Li...
Ais took Gu Yao to a very elegant Chinese-style restaurant.
Out of gentleman’s courtesy and to avoid awkwardness, Ais didn’t ask for a private room and directly sat at a table by the window on the second floor.
"This restaurant is really nicely decorated. Is it new? How co I never noticed it before?" Gu Yao looked around, the more she looked, the more she felt this place was comfortable to be in.
Especially the view outside the window, giving off the flavor of a Jiangnan water-town.
"Do you like it?" Ais asked with a smile.
"It’s quite unique, I really didn’t expect Beijing to have a restaurant with this kind of decor. Does the owner have a story?"
"It seems he does. I discovered this place by chance. See that river outside?" Ais pointed at the view outside the window.
"Does that river have a story?" Gu Yao looked outside.
"It used to be a ditch, and it was the restaurant owner who turned it into a river." Ais said with a laugh.
"Turning a ditch into a river in this area? The owner must be soone influential and surely wealthy."
"I don’t know about influence, but the owner is definitely an interesting person. I’ve been here a few tis and heard quite a few stories about the owner."
"Really interesting stories?" Upon hearing this, Gu Yao beca curious.
"Yes, this restaurant doesn’t serve male guests with the surna Tang."
"Why?"
"Because the owner’s lover’s surna is Tang."
