BXBX NOVEL Chapter 241 - 241: Are You Thinking of Song Ling
After leaving Song Ling’s sight, the four individuals, including Yellow Hair, thought they were safe, only to be caught the next moment and taken to the police station.
Gu Dai, sitting in the backseat, was lost in thought.
Meng Chuan, noticing Gu Dai’s demeanor, pursed his lips and took a deep breath before speaking, “Daidai, are you still unable to let go of Song Ling?”
Gu Dai snapped back to reality, processing Meng Chuan’s question with a sense of bewilderment.
Meng Chuan, not waiting for Gu Dai to respond, continued, “That Song Ling is reckless in his actions. Besides his good looks and some charm, he has no merits worth liking.”
Subconsciously, Gu Dai agreed, “Mhmm.”
Meng Chuan, encouraged by her response, advised, “Although Song Ling seemed very concerned about you today, don’t let this small gesture soften your heart.”
Initially confused as to why Meng Chuan was saying this, Gu Dai quickly explained, “Second Brother, you misunderstood. 1 wasn’t thinking about Song Ling.”
Meng Chuan, puzzled, queried, “Hmm?”
Gu Dai clarified, “1 was wondering how those people knew my location.”
Meng Chuan shared, “The leader said Zhou Gang had sent them.”
Recalling Zhou Gang, Meng Chuan suddenly remembered he hadn’t yet dealt with him and quickly took out his phone to give instructions.
Gu Dai shook her head, dismissing the idea, “Zhou Gang recently went bankrupt and got divorced. Cut off financially, he wouldn’t think to target me in his current situation.”
Meng Chuan asked, “What should we do now?”
After a moment, Gu Dai suggested, “1’11 have someone look into Zhou Gang first to see if there are any clues.”
Meng Chuan agreed, “Alright.”
Gu Dai suspected someone was backing Zhou Gang, someone who could even monitor her daily movements!
She made a call to Chu Min.
Chu Min promptly assured her after hearing Gu Dai’s instructions, “Don’t worry, boss, I’ll handle this matter well!”
Chu Min had seen the recent trending news about Zhou Gang and had wanted to teach him a lesson, but the situation was resolved before he could act. This time, he wouldn’t miss the chance.
Gu Dai chuckled lightly, responding, “Mhmm.”
Chu Min, noticing Gu Dai’s good mood, joked, “Boss, you haven’t contacted me in a while. I thought you were dissatisfied with my work.”
Gu Dai, feeling helpless, chatted a few more words with Chu Min before hanging up.
After the call, Gu Dai received a message from Meng Zhi. After a glance, she informed Meng Chuan, “Third Brother said the club’s situation is tricky, he might not be able to come later.”
Gu Dai was anxious, “Third Brother always made time for family matters, no matter how busy. The difficulty he’s facing must be significant! Second Brother, let’s think of a way to help him.”
Meng Chuan’s eyes flickered, calmly saying, “Don’t worry, Daidai. Trust your
Third Brother’s abilities. He will handle it well.”
Gu Dai hesitated, “Really?”
Meng Chuan nodded affirmatively, “Of course. Although your Third Brother is not as capable as me, he’s still my younger brother after all. Even if he is dense, he is dense among the intelligent.”
Gu Dai, still concerned, started to say something.
Meng Chuan interrupted with a smile, “If Meng Zhi knew you were worried about him, he might think you’re doubting his abilities. Let’s think about what to eat later instead!”
Gu Dai reluctantly agreed, “Okay.”
Gu Dai then suggested, “It’s a bit lonely with just two of us for dinner. I’ll invite Gu Yin along.”
Meng Chuan, puzzled, asked, “Who’s Gu Yin?”
Gu Dai explained, “She’s my cousin from my aunt’s side. I’ve asked her to stay at my place.”
Gu Dai shared the events of the past few days with Meng Chuan.
At Linxian Pavilion.
Wang Lan slumped in her chair, panting, “I’m exhausted. This restaurant is so crowded; 1 had to queue for two hours to get in.”
Sheng Xin sat elegantly, her back straight, a faint smile on her face, showing no impatience from the long wait.
She said cheerfully, “1 heard about this restaurant’s high ratings while I was abroad. It has not a single bad review. I’ve always wanted to experience it, and today I finally got the chance..”
