She did not expect that the cold and heartless child in her impression had such a soft and gentle side to him. Gu Jinglian was a little stunned.
When Youyou saw Gu Jinglian, he lowered his head in silence.
‘The man crossed his arms. “Why? Don’t you recognize me?”
When Yun s.h.i.+s.h.i.+ heard this, she looked up and saw that it was Gu Jinglian. Her eyes widened in surprise. She recognized him. Gu Jinglian, head of the Gu family in the capital.
He was also… Gu Xingze’s brother.
Why was he here?
Youyou suddenly stood up and walked towards him. He said coldly to the man, “If you wish to address any matter, let’s not do it here!” With that, he grabbed the man’s sleeve and led him to a corner.
‘Turning around, Youyou’s gaze was filled with hostility. “Gu Jinglian, why are you following me wherever I go!”
Gu Jinglian crossed his arms in front of his chest calmly. “Why, Gong Fan? We haven’t settled our scores yet!”
“What scores?”
“What happened in North Africa isn’t something to be forgotten in a hurry!” Gu Jinglian said expressionlessly, “Wirth is the Gu family’s key business in North Africa. You used those despicable methods to take it away from me. How are we going to settle this score?”
“Despicable?” Youyou, on the other hand, did not think much of it and said faintly, “Gu Jinglian, don’t put yourself on a pedestal. I don’t have to tell you how you got that piece of land that Wirth sits on, right?!”
‘That was a piece of land that belonged to the Hurricane Group. It wasn’t as though the Gu family came into the possession of this piece of land through any honorable methods. Now, they were calling him despicable? How did that add up? He was merely looking at the results while ignoring the process.
Gu Jinglian sized him up silently. Suddenly, he squatted down in front of the boy and said unhurriedly, “I have to say, it’s really impressive that you have such skills at such a young age. However, regarding the incident in North Africa, I’ve indeed lost. I have no objections. However, I hope that you won’t
go against me in the future.” After a pause, he said with some difficulty, “After all, you’re just a child. If I’m too harsh on you, it’ll be too much.”
The boy smirked at that. “I hope as well, that you won’t come up against me. Otherwise, I’ll feel bad having to put you back in your place.”
The two of them seemed equally powerful and it was hard to tell who was stronger.
Gu Jinglian’s thin lips twitched.
The capital had always been a place of strife, and there had never been a lack of them, be they open or hidden. However, ever since Mu Yazhe married Yun s.h.i.+s.h.i.+, he had withdrawn from from these things and devoted himself to his family. The drive for Shengyu Corporation to expand had also waned a
little.
Without such a powerful opponent, Gu Jinglian could not help feeling rather bored. With a rising star like Yun Tianyou, things could get interesting again!
Gu Jinglian stood up and rubbed the boy’s head provocatively before turning to leave. Youyou’s icy gaze followed the man’s back as he returned to Yun s.h.i.+s.h.i.+ side.
By then, Mu Yazhe’s wound had already been treated. Seeing that the boy had appeared out of nowhere, he asked suspiciously, “Where did you go just then?”
The boy tumed his face away without a word. It was as if he had returned to being the same person that he was, when he first came back to the Mu family home. He withdrew into his own world, as if isolating from the external world.
‘Mu Yazhe was startled but he smiled. He understood his son’s character. The boy was arrogant, sharp-tongued, and would not express his true feelings. Superficially, he looked as cold as ice, but in reality, when he encountered a dangerous situation, like what had happened earlier on, he had chosen to
return to the plaza and shouted at the top of his lungs to try to locate them..
