511: Chapter 511: Find Soone to Talk to 511: Chapter 511: Find Soone to Talk to Gu Fan felt a bit embarrassed now, scratched his head, and quickly changed the subject: “Did you notice any common points in what I said earlier?”
“They all revolve around your old house, but why?” Su Hui looked puzzled, Lin Xi also expressed her confusion, and Gu Ling remained silent throughout.
Gu Fan knew he couldn’t pressure his sister, so he said, “Alright, Xiaoling, I won’t force you to speak.
I’ll find out by myself.”
Hearing this, Gu Ling suddenly brightened up: “Brother, even if you figure it out by yourself, you can’t bla for not telling you afterwards.
You can’t exclude from subsequent matters.
I really have no choice but to ask you to understand my situation.”
“Alright, I understand you.” Gu Fan looked rather helpless.
If Gu Ling kept secrets from others, Gu Fan might think his sister was insincere.
But it was different when it ca to keeping secrets from their parents; Gu Fan really couldn’t force Gu Ling to disclose them.
Su Hui interjected: “So what should we do next?
How do we break the stalemate?
We can’t beat the big boss and Qian Feng combined.”
At this, Lin Xi also voiced her opinion: “In my view, although the big boss and Qian Feng are sitting together, looking as if they are on good terms, they must still be wary of each other.
It’s impossible for them to completely trust each other.”
“Right, forr enemies can’t just start trusting each other.
We have to seize this point and disintegrate their unstable alliance.” Gu Fan finished, revealing a aningful smile.
Seeing Gu Fan like this, everyone knew he must have co up with a good plan.
Gu Fan added: “Alright, everyone’s tired tonight.
Let’s get so rest early.
We have a lot to do tomorrow, don’t we?”
“Well….” Lin Xi seed a bit troubled.
“It’s quite late at night.
I escaped from ho secretly.
If I sneak back now, I am afraid my parents will find out.
So, I might as well not go back.
When they wake up in the morning and find out I’m not ho, they might think I went for a morning run.
I absolutely don’t want to be caught sneaking in at night and be scolded.”
“Future sister-in-law, we still have spare rooms in this old house.
You’re welco to stay over.” Gu Ling appeared very welcoming, and Lin Xi quickly shook Gu Ling’s hand in agreent: “Alright, we have a deal then.”
Seeing this scene, Gu Fan couldn’t help but sigh: “Three won, how am I going to cope with this situation.”
Su Hui nodded: “Now, we don’t know when the enemy will attack.
Having Lin Xi is the best thing.”
“But we can’t always rely on Lin Xi.” Gu Fan knew that Lin Xi had to go ho tomorrow and couldn’t live in the old house for a long ti, so he had to co up with a solution.
So Gu Fan decided that as soon as it was dawn, he and Gu Ling would return to their ho while Su Hui would move to her company’s dormitory.
They would all move back after Gu Fan had sorted out the problem.
Su Hui and Gu Ling agreed.
Living in the old house where they could be attacked at any ti didn’t provide any sense of security.
So, after everyone’s agreent, they went to sleep imdiately.
The next day, Lin Xi went back ho, Su Hui went to her office, Gu Ling went back to their parents first, and Gu Fan had sothing to do.
Gu Fan arrived at Uncle Zhang’s restaurant and ordered breakfast.
While eating, he continued to sigh heavily.
Uncle Zhang was concerned: “What’s wrong, Gu Fan, didn’t you get a good night’s sleep?”
Gu Fan nodded, “Exactly, many people ca to disturb my peace last night.
How could I possibly sleep well?” After saying this, Gu Fan yawned again.
Uncle Zhang was curious: “What happened last night?”
Gu Fan looked listless: “A bunch of people wanted to buy our old house.
I refused, and when the negotiation broke down, we almost got into a fight.”
“Really?” Uncle Zhang looked sowhat shocked, and asked again: “So, were you hurt?”
Gu Fan shook his head, looking helplessly bitter: “I ran quickly and was not hurt.
The guys also wisely went their way.
Really, who did I offend?
I was just minding my own business at ho and ran into such bad luck.”
Uncle Zhang frowned: “So, how did you handle it afterwards?”
Gu Fan looked troubled: “Well, initially, I planned to call the police, but after so thought, I decided to back off, I’m worried…”
“What are you worried about, retaliation?” Uncle Zhang couldn’t help but ask further; he was very anxious.
Gu Fan simply shook his head: “Zhang Yang was in my old house, planning to stay for a night, but he was driven away by my father, and he left in a bad mood.
Seeing Zhang Yang’s interest in the old house, I suspected that the people who wanted to buy the old house last night were sent by him.
Considering Zhang Yang is from your Zhang family, I wanted to verify it with you, Uncle Zhang.”
Uncle Zhang imdiately refuted: “That’s impossible; I don’t know anything about it.
Gu Fan, you shouldn’t make such assumptions without any proof.”
Gu Fan quickly apologized with a smile: “I’m sorry, Uncle Zhang.
I trust that you definitely don’t know anything.
I was just worried about Zhang Yang, so I didn’t want to escalate the situation.”
Although Uncle Zhang looked angry, he was unsure in his heart.
He knew that Zhang Yang was indeed very interested in the old house.
What if he really did sothing irregular to get the old house?
“Uncle Zhang, thanks for the breakfast.
Please help find out.
If Zhang Yang did it, I can pretend nothing happened and let it go.
But if it wasn’t him, I will call the police.” After eating breakfast, Gu Fan left.
As soon as he stepped out of the restaurant, he stretched luxuriously.
Watching Gu Fan’s retreating figure, Uncle Zhang frowned and imdiately hid in the kitchen, dialling Gu Chuanshan’s phone: “Hello, Old Gu, sothing happened last night.
Do you know about it?”
Gu Chuanshan replied: “Gu Ling has co back.
She has already told about what happened last night.”
“Your son just ca here for breakfast.
I feel he was testing whether I knew sothing.
He is not suspicious about the old house, is he?” Uncle Zhang’s worry was also Gu Chuanshan’ s worry.
After thinking for a while, Gu Chuanshan responded: “Old Zhang, just continue your little peaceful life.
Avoid getting involved in other matters.
As for Gu Fan, I will take care of it.”
Hearing this, Uncle Zhang breathed a sigh of relief: “Alright, actually I really didn’t want to get involved, I’m having a good ti now.”
After a few pleasantries, Gu Chuanshan hung up the phone, staring at the silent Gu Ling, and asked: “Is your brother now suspicious about the old house?”
With this, Gu Ling nodded, and Gu Chuanshan’s face turned serious.
