Chapter 269: Mystery Express (2)
As soon as Mr. Tao finished speaking, there was a knock on the door.
"Knock knock—"
Madam Tao put down the remote control, got up and went to open the door.
Master Tao reckoned that it was Mr. Gu who came, closed the newspaper and put it aside, and reached out to fiddle with the tea set.
"It\'s Xiao Ning."
As soon as the door opened, Mrs. Tao saw that Gu Qingning had also come, and she was so happy that she forgot about Mr. Gu and the others.
She stretched out her hand to pull Gu Qingning, and found that her hand was wrapped in a bandage, with a worried expression on her face, "What\'s wrong with this hand?"
Gu Qingning smiled faintly, "I accidentally got pinched by the car door, it\'s nothing serious."
"It must be very painful to be caught by the car door. How can you say it\'s nothing serious." Mrs. Tao frowned, looking at her with concern and distress.
"Grandma Tao has a very useful medicinal oil, I will get it for you later."
Gu Qingning smiled and nodded.
Being ignored by the side, Mr. Gu was not annoyed, he looked at Gu Qingning with a look of surprise in his eyes.
When did she get so close to the Tao family?
Mrs. Tao looked over and greeted politely, "Mr. Gu, long time no see, please come in."
Master Gu nodded, and walked into the room.
A group of people walked to the living room, Mr. Tao looked up at Mr. Gu, and said with a smile, "Mr. Gu, I haven\'t seen you for a while, come and try my tea."
"Gu Ying and Xiao Ning are here too, hurry up and sit down."
The two old men were busy exchanging greetings, while Gu Ying and Gu Qingning sat quietly aside.
Old Mrs. Tao ordered the servants to get fruit, she turned and went upstairs.
Find Fu Juncheng\'s bedroom, the door is ajar and not closed tightly.
Old Madam Tao raised her hand and knocked on the door, then pushed the door and walked in.
Inside, Fu Juncheng is wearing a Bluetooth headset and having a video conference.
Seeing the old lady come in, he raised his hand and took off the Bluetooth on his ear, "Grandma, what\'s the matter?"
Old Madam Tao smiled, "A Cheng, Xiao Ning is here, get down quickly."
Fu Juncheng raised his eyebrows lightly, "Is she alone?"
His little lion didn\'t go to school?
"No, there are Mr. Gu and Gu Ying."
Hearing this, Fu Juncheng\'s eyes darkened slightly, he interrupted the meeting, got up and walked out.
Downstairs, the two old men chatted in full swing, and there was no room for Gu Ying and the others to interrupt.
Gu Ying tilted her head, stared at Gu Qingning with black eyes, and asked in a low voice, "A Ning, why did you agree to join the Gu Group?"
Knowing that the old man was digging a hole for her, she jumped into it cooperatively.
Gu Qingning pursed his lips, glanced at Old Man Gu in a nonchalant way from the corner of his eye, and whispered, "The old man wants to play, so I\'ll play with him."
If she accidentally brings down the Gu Group, then she can\'t help it.
Touching the meaningful smile on the corner of her mouth, Gu Ying\'s expression froze slightly.
If the old man knew what she thought, he might regret letting her join the Gu Group.
Fu Juncheng came downstairs and saw the two brothers and sisters whispering.
He made heavy footsteps on purpose, and all eyes in the living room turned to him.
Four eyes face each other.
In just a moment, Gu Qingning looked away first, and casually watched the news broadcast on TV.
Unexpectedly, Fu Juncheng was also here, and a trace of surprise appeared on Mr. Gu\'s face.
Immediately, he took the initiative to greet Fu Juncheng, with a hint of flattery.
"When will Master Cheng come to City A? I\'m really sorry that I didn\'t entertain you well at the banquet last time."
Although according to seniority, he is Fu Juncheng\'s elder, but in their circle, the most important thing is status.
No matter how powerful the Gu family is in City A, it cannot compare to the Fu family in Beijing. It is no exaggeration to say that the Fu family can cover the sky in Beijing.
The most important thing is that the rumors about Fu Juncheng in the Beijing circle are very mysterious. Although he has not yet taken over everything in the Fu family, no one in the entire Beijing circle dares to provoke him. Too unpredictable, seemingly loose, but actually strong and domineering.
Those who fall into his hands usually have a miserable end.
Fu Juncheng nodded and said politely, "Mr. Gu is being polite, just call me Juncheng."
As he spoke, he sat down on the sofa diagonally opposite Gu Qingning.
Old Master Gu smiled, glanced at Gu Qingning, and then at Fu Juncheng, "Jun Cheng, last time I saw you chatting with Qingning at a banquet, have you known each other for a long time?"
Fu Juncheng crossed his legs, and rested his slender and jade-like hands on his knees casually, his every move was noble and lazy.
"It\'s not that long ago, I just met recently."
Old Master Gu said, "Well, I see that you take good care of Qingning, and I think you have known each other for a long time."
Fu Juncheng glanced at Gu Qingning, with an unfathomable gleam in his eyes, "Azhao\'s younger sister is also my younger sister, so it\'s appropriate to help take care of her."
younger sister?
Gu Qingning pursed her lips, her long eyelashes drooping slightly, covering the smile in her eyes.
This guy is quite good at talking nonsense.
Gu Ying looked at Fu Juncheng with an intriguing look in his eyes, and smiled from the bottom of his heart.
Take care of her as a younger sister?
believed his nonsense.
Ignoring his contemptuous eyes, Fu Juncheng was as calm as before, and occasionally glanced at Gu Qingning.
During the period, the two had little communication.
After staying at Tao\'s house for about an hour, Mr. Gu got up and said goodbye.
No surprise, Gu Ying and Gu Qingning also followed him and left.
Seeing them off, the smile on Old Master Tao\'s face faded, and he asked inexplicably, "A Cheng, what do you think Mr. Gu\'s purpose is for coming here today?"
To be honest, the friendship between him and Mr. Gu is not too deep. Mr. Gu specially came to visit in person today. If there is nothing tricky about it, he doesn\'t believe it.
Fu Juncheng squinted his eyes, with a cold light in the corner of his eyes, "I went to a banquet last time, and I got closer to Ningning. Mr. Gu wants to win over the Fu family. The Tao family is a good bridge."
His words hit the nail on the head, and he penetrated Mr. Gu\'s mind.
Old Master Tao suddenly realized that it was so.
He shook his head and smiled, "Mr. Gu is not very good, but he is quite lucky. His grandchildren are all very good children."
Fu Juncheng didn\'t answer, his mind had already left with Gu Qingning.
…
At night, the landscape lights of the Wanjin Mansion were all lit up.
As the meal time approached, Gu Qingning received a message saying that she had a courier left at the security booth at the door.
Gu Qingning looked at the express message and couldn\'t help but wonder.
She didn\'t buy anything, where did the express come from?
It\'s some distance away from the security booth at the gate. When Gu Che heard this, he drove her to get it.
Approaching the door, the white sports car stopped, Gu Qingning opened the door and got off, Gu Che sat in the car and waited for her.
Approaching the security booth, as soon as he saw her, the security immediately brought out a big box for her.
The impatient look, as if holding a piece of hot potato in his hand.
"Miss Gu, your courier."
After speaking, he put the box on the ground and took two steps back.
Gu Qingning looked down and saw that the box was open, but not sealed.
When she saw what was inside, a trace of astonishment appeared in her clear eyes.
