176: Chapter 176 Liu Chen Seeks Help

The next day, the grandmother’s funeral hall was set up in the Tang Family Mansion.

Many heard the news and ca to the mansion to send her off for the last ti.

Even though the Tang Family hadn’t collaborated with other companies since taking over the West District project, there were still past friendships, so many people indeed ca to the Tang Family Mansion.

In front of these people, Tang Xiangdong behaved much like he did yesterday, with red eyes and appearing exceptionally sad.

If anyone asked how the grandmother died, they would all be told it was a relapse of an old illness.

Although outsiders thought the event was too sudden, the grandmother was quite old, so it was normal for this to happen.

Moreover, this was the Tang Family’s own affair, so others just asked casually without probing further.

Su Changfeng stood outside the mansion in a black suit because he couldn’t go inside to wear mourning clothes.

Plus, the mansion now belonged to Tang Xiangdong, who didn’t allow Su Changfeng to enter.

With nothing of interest, Su Changfeng could only quietly watch Tang Xiangdong’s performance.

The grandmother was dead, and Tang Xiangdong beca the chairman of the Tang Family.

Tang Xiangdong was the one who benefited the most.

The grandmother’s sudden death, if there was no reason behind it, Su Changfeng did not believe it.

Su Cang felt certain that this matter was related to Tang Xiangdong, but due to the lack of evidence, he was also helpless.

However, since he now controls the Tang Group, it seems Tang Qiulu won’t have good days in the group in the future.

While thinking about sothing, Su Changfeng’s phone rang.

“I’ve had no ti to go shopping with you these days,” Su Changfeng said as he picked up the phone.

Gu Qing’er had already learned the news of the grandmother’s death.

This call wasn’t for going shopping together, but rather because the cause of the grandmother’s death was particularly puzzling.

She was healthy just yesterday.

Even if she suddenly fell seriously ill, it shouldn’t result in death so abruptly, should it?

“Why did the grandmother suddenly die?” Gu Qing’er asked.

Regarding the Gu Family’s suspicions, Tang Qiulu had previously warned Su Changfeng, so Su Changfeng wouldn’t tell Gu Qing’er.

Moreover, Su Changfeng also understood very clearly what the consequences would be if the Gu Family beca aware of these suspicions.

However, there was an advantage, which was that the Gu Family might find the real culprit, but the Tang Family definitely couldn’t accept this downside.

Dare to accuse Gu Qing’er?

The Gu Family would never let the Tang Family off.

“I don’t know either; right now, I can’t even enter the Tang Family Mansion,” Su Changfeng said.

Hearing this, Gu Qing’er couldn’t help but smile slightly at the corner of her mouth.

The more unhappy the Tang Family was with Su Changfeng, the more chances she had.

“Anyway, since you have nothing to do now, why don’t you co over to my place?

Grandpa Liu ca over early this morning and is still chatting with my grandpa,” Gu Qing’er said.

Liu Chen?

He’s friends with Gu Changsheng, and it’s normal for them to chat occasionally.

But given Liu Chen’s temperant, after being defeated, he should be focusing on studying Go.

Why would he waste ti chatting with Gu Changsheng?

“Even though I can’t enter, I can’t just leave like this either.

I’ll co by later,” Su Changfeng said.

Gu Qing’er pouted, wondering why Su Changfeng was willing to stay at the Tang Family.

Could it be that Tang Qiulu was indeed that appealing?

In terms of beauty and figure, Gu Qing’er didn’t think she would lose to Tang Qiulu.

Plus, she was still young, and her body was still developing.

Maybe her figure would even surpass Tang Qiulu’s in the future?

Isn’t he seeing things clearly?

Can’t he recognize potential when he sees it?

“I won’t talk to you anymore; Grandpa and the others are coming out.” After saying that, Gu Qing’er hung up the phone and then glanced down at her own chest, hoping for it to improve a bit, perhaps to catch Su Changfeng’s attention.

“Old Gu, it’s all up to you this ti.

Try to find a way for ,” Liu Chen said to Gu Changsheng before leaving.

“Take care, Grandpa Liu.”

“Qing’er, you’re really sweet.

Grandpa Liu forgot to bring a gift for you this ti; I’ll give it to you next ti,” Liu Chen said as he walked towards the door.

“Grandpa Liu, you’ve said that to

every ti,” Gu Qing’er replied with a smile.

Liu Chen hurriedly left without turning his head.

Gu Changsheng chuckled and said, “Look how scared you made Grandpa Liu.

What if he doesn’t dare to co next ti?”

Gu Qing’er pouted, her face adorned with displeasure: “Hmph!

Every ti Grandpa Liu sees , he says the sa thing.

Since the first ti we’ve t till now, he’s always said that, yet I’ve never seen a trace of it!”

“Haha~!” Gu Changsheng laughed.

Although Liu Chen did have a not-so-low standing in Hai City, he was also particularly upright and had never accepted benefits from others, which made his life relatively difficult.

How could he have extra money to buy gifts for Gu Qing’er?

However, he was also sowhat vain.

Every ti they t, he’d bring up the sa topic.

“Grandpa, what did Grandpa Liu co here for this ti?” Gu Qing’er curiously asked.

“He ca to seek help from your grandpa,” Gu Changsheng replied with a smile.

“Help?

Grandpa Liu isn’t soone from the business world.

What would he need your help for?” Gu Qing’er asked, puzzled.

She wasn’t genuinely angry over the lack of a gift.

She understood Liu Chen’s circumstances and even respected him for being one of the few in today’s society who aren’t greedy for money.

“It’s because an old rival of his is coming to Hai City.

He’s been losing for most of his life, and your Grandpa Liu said that this might be the last ti he’ll et him in his lifeti.

He wants to win this ti,” Gu Changsheng said.

“Pfft.” Gu Qing’er looked at Gu Changsheng with disdain.

“Do you really think you can help Grandpa Liu win?

Weren’t you almost cleaned out by Su Yi after he beat you?

ntioning this, Gu Changsheng froze.

He used to love martial arts and playing chess, but after being thoroughly defeated by Su Changfeng, he had only one love left.

Not to ntion thinking about chess; even just seeing a board would give him a headache.

“Do you both have this attitude toward Grandpa?

Before Grandpa saw Su Changfeng, he was also quite a skilled player,” Gu Changsheng said, unwilling to concede.

“What about after eting him?” Gu Qing’er asked provocatively.

Gu Changsheng took a deep breath and pretended he was about to get angry, but Gu Qing’er showed no fear, staring back at him, immobilizing Old Master Gu’s temper imdiately.

“Grandpa is still your elder.

You’re making

lose face here,” Gu Changsheng said helplessly.
