Chapter 129 Suspicion
She was extremely annoyed, and such entanglement also made her exhausted.At this moment, she was extremely powerless, and she didn't even know what Chen Xiao wanted.

Chen Xiao on the bed didn't know if he was really drunk or what, obviously he didn't feel her annoyance.He raised his eyelids to look at her, then closed his eyes immediately.

In the middle of the night, Gu Shi'an no longer had the energy to wake him up and drive him out.Since he wants to stay, let him stay.

The person on the bed didn't move, she put on her clothes without saying a word, and then slammed the door out.

It was past one o'clock in the morning, and both the corridor and the entire community were quiet.She stood at the window of the corridor, and the cold wind blowing in made her mind clearer.

She had nowhere to go, but fortunately she brought a wallet with her when she came out.She opened the wallet, and the ID card was still inside.She didn't go back and went downstairs directly.

Although it was late, the hotels outside the community were still open.A young man was guarding the front desk, playing a game.

It was probably at the critical point, and after three or four minutes, he stood up and opened the room for Gu Shi'an.It's not the peak season now, there are many vacant rooms in the hotel, Gu Shi'an chose a room on the second floor, and went upstairs with the key.

She slept soundly, but after all the troubles and being in a strange place, how could she still sleep, staring at the pale ceiling of the hotel with her eyes open.

The time waiting for dawn is undoubtedly long, and every minute and every second passes so slowly.Gu Shi'an just lay there motionless, until the light outside the window lit up, and then she turned her head to look.Then get up and wash with the disposable toiletries in the hotel.

Chen Xiao was still there, she didn't go back.After refunding the deposit, go to the breakfast shop across the road to have breakfast.

She got up early, and the street in the morning light was much quieter than usual.Sanitation workers are cleaning the road, and occasionally vehicles pass by.

There were only two or three customers in the breakfast shop, so Gu Shian sat down and ordered a deep-fried dough stick and a bowl of warm soy milk.

She didn't sleep much all night, but the warm soybean milk lifted her spirits.It was only after seven o'clock after eating. She looked down at the time and walked to the bus station.

At this time, there were still few people. She hadn't slept all night and her temples were throbbing non-stop. She closed her eyes and fell asleep.He didn't get out of the car until he heard the voice reminding him to arrive at the station.

There is a 24-hour library in the city center. Although it is still early, there are already many people in the library.I don't know if it came early or was always there.

It was quiet inside, and Gu Shi'an unconsciously lightened his steps.Looking at the books on the shelves in rows.

She hadn't been to the bookstore for a long time, and after work, she never came again except occasionally to look for materials.

Standing in front of the bookshelf, she lost her mind for a while before pulling out one of the books from the bookshelf.Then I found a seat and sat down to watch.

Probably because I didn't sleep well, my eyes became very astringent after looking at it for a while.She sat in a daze for a while, then took the book in her hand to check out.

After leaving the bookstore, her cell phone rang.She took out her mobile phone, and the caller ID turned out to be her second uncle's.She couldn't help but startled for a moment.

Although she kept her second uncle's contact information in her hand, in fact, the number of calls he made over the years is very few.

The phone rang tirelessly, Gu Shian came back to his senses, picked up the phone, said hello, and called his second uncle.

Gu Chengde on the other end of the phone looked kindly like an elder, and after a few polite greetings, he asked, "Where are you, Second Uncle wants to talk to you about something."

Naturally, he didn't call to ask about Gu Shi'an's recent life.He was not surprised at all when he proposed to meet Gu Shi'an, and said, "I'm outside right now, just tell me, I'll just go there."

That's right, how can the elders follow the younger ones.

Gu Chengde hypocritically said a few polite words for the driver to pick up, and then gave Gu Shi'an the address.

Today is not the weekend, he has to go to work.Gu Shi'an originally thought that he would ask him to meet near Gu's, but he didn't.Even far away from Gu's.

Gu Shi'an can't remember the last time his second uncle called him, it should be when she just moved out of Gu's old house.Gu Su scolded her for being a bastard, and the old lady lost her temper.Probably in order to leave a fair and impartial image in the old lady's heart, he scolded Gu Su, then called her, asked her to go back, and forced Gu Su to tell her in front of the old lady. apologize.He also said that he would discipline Gu Su well in the future and would not let her speak rudely again.

Looking back on the past, it seems like a century has passed.After hanging up the phone, Gu Shi'an couldn't help feeling slightly lost in thought.

Her second uncle's family has always been unprofitable.It would definitely not be a good thing that he would call her himself.

Gu Shi'an took a breath, checked the time, and stood on the side of the road to stop the car.

She couldn't think of what her second uncle could talk to her about. The only thing they talked about was probably the shares held by the old lady.Gu Shian closed his eyes.

It was rare that there was no traffic jam early in the morning, and when Gu Shian arrived, Gu Chengde had already arrived.The driver was asked to wait outside the coffee shop, and when he saw Gu Shian, he took her upstairs to the private room.

When he knocked on the door and entered, he was still on the phone, seeing Gu Shi'an's chubby face immediately showed a smile.He hung up the phone directly, and then asked Gu Shi'an to sit down.

Gu Shian politely called Second Uncle, and then sat down opposite him.

Gu Shi'an asked her about daily trivial matters, and at the same time asked her what to eat.He also said that girls like to eat desserts, let her pick her favorite, and he treats her today.

He was very polite, but Gu Shi'an couldn't refuse, so he had to order a dessert.

Gu Chengde said a few words that he was her second uncle, so you're welcome.Then he lamented that Gu Shi'an was much more sensible than Gu Su.

Gu Shi'an didn't know what he was going to say when he went around like that, so he could only laugh it off.

After Gu Chengde praised her for a while, he suddenly sighed, looked at Gu Shi'an, and said, "You child is just too sensible."

He turned this corner too fast, Gu Shi'an didn't react for a while.He went on to say: "I've heard about your company, you kid, why do you only know to hide it from the second uncle when you encounter such a big trouble?"

Yes, the fire was not a big one, but it wasn't a small one either.He needs to know that sooner or later.It's just that the entire Gu family, except for the old lady, is afraid that she will cause trouble for them. I don't know why he brought up this trouble on his own initiative today.

There was a look of concern on his chubby face.Gu Shi'an smiled lightly and said, "You are already very busy, so why bother you."

Gu Chengde glared at her pretending to be annoyed, and said, "You child, no matter how busy Er Bo's affairs are, it's not as important as you!"

He didn't even blush when he said such hypocritical words.Gu Shi'an couldn't find anything to say, but before she could speak, Gu Chengde went on to say: "Remember to tell Er Bo if you have something to do in the future. Don't support it by yourself."

He is a earnest look.

Gu Shian could only nod his head.

Originally thought that he was going to ask her about the company's affairs next, but he didn't.He took a sip of coffee and asked, "I heard from Gu Su that you and Chen Xiao had a conflict?"

This topic suddenly went a little far, and without waiting for Gu Shian to speak, he sighed, and then said: "The Chen family has a good family background, but..." He paused, and then said: "It's been so many years , I really wronged you. You can’t take it seriously when you are entertaining, but this time, Chen Xiao really went too far. I didn’t believe it when Xiao Su said it. I saw him and the person surnamed Li at a reception a few days ago. It's the first love that Xiao Su said was together, in front of me..."

Probably because it was inconvenient to go on, he spoke vaguely.There was a distressed look on his face.

Gu Shi'an, who was walking around like that, didn't know what he was talking about, and didn't speak, he lowered his head and used a fork to pick up the dessert in front of him.

She lowered her head, Gu Chengde couldn't see the expression on her face.After a slight pause, he asked, "I heard that you have moved back to the old house?"

The tone was not probing.It's a statement.I don't know who he heard it from, but it took a lot of effort to call her.

Gu Shi'an didn't know what kind of performance he had to present to satisfy him, so he forced a forced smile on his face and said, "It's been a long time since I went back, I just went back to live for a few days."

Gu Chengde patted the table and said, "Don't lie to Uncle Er. Chen Xiao is too much. If you want a divorce, Uncle Er will definitely support you. He is so openly with that woman, but he doesn't treat our Gu family Put it in your eyes!"

He was indignant, as if he completely forgot how Chen Xiao flattered him and had a good time with him when he went to Gu's house last time.

Gu Shi'an's heart was at peace, she couldn't act, so she lowered her head and said nothing.

Gu Chengde sighed, and then said: "You child, you are too tolerant. Obviously, Chen Xiao's behavior cannot be changed. Since you have already moved out, don't move back. I discussed it with my second aunt. Well, if you don’t want to stay here after you divorced him, you can go abroad for further study for a period of time. The second uncle hasn’t taken good care of you these years. When you go abroad this time, the money will be paid by the second uncle. And your company, you Don’t worry, it’s just burning down a reference room, I have a friend who knows your boss, how much he wants, the second uncle will pay for you.”

He looked like a rich and powerful man, and he put the hat of setting fire on Gu Shi'an's head directly.Didn't even ask her what the fire was about.

This kind of Gu family is the Gu family that Gu Shian is familiar with.

Gu Shian's heart was icy cold.I don't even know what Gu Chengde wants to do.He has always been known for being stingy, and he is always on guard against thinking about what good things she will get from the old lady.Otherwise, every time she went back to the old house, the whole family would not be staring at her closely.

Gu Shi'an forced a forced smile on his face, and said, "Why bother you, Uncle, I will take care of my own affairs. You don't have to worry."

"I'm your second uncle. Your matter is the same as that of Gu Su and Gu Qian. It's right for the second uncle to worry. You're just being too polite." As he spoke, the phone rang.He took it out to check, but didn't answer.Then he said: "What the second uncle said, you should think about it carefully, and call the second uncle when you think about it. You have resigned now, and when you come back from further studies, most of the companies want you."

The phone call should be to urge him, so he stood up and said, "I left beforehand and asked the driver to take you back. Remember to think about calling the second uncle."

He was in a hurry, and he walked out quickly without waiting for Gu Shi'an to speak after speaking.

Gu Shi'an sat in his seat without moving, looking at the coffee in the cup.The purpose of Gu Chengde's detour was probably to send her to study abroad.

It costs money to study abroad.How could he be so generous, giving her a sum of money for nothing?

Gu Shi'an couldn't figure it out, he didn't know what he wanted to do.She knew little about Gu's affairs, and there must be a reason for Gu Chengde's sudden appearance.She couldn't figure it out and didn't think about it any further. After sitting for a while, she got up and went out.

Gu Chengde paid the bill, she just went out, and saw the driver who took her to the private room waiting at the door.When he left, he asked the driver to take her off. Gu Shi'an originally thought it was a polite word, but he didn't expect that he actually asked the driver to stay.

Gu Shi'an is just an orphan girl in Gu's family, neither her uncle nor uncle nor the people around her third uncle look at her directly.Even if there is some politeness, that kindness is superficial.

Gu Chengde probably said hello in advance today, and the driver was respectful.Seeing Gu Shi'an speak, he said, "Miss, Mr. Gu has explained, I will take you where you are going."

Gu Shi'an didn't dare to accept his kindness, so he smiled lightly and said, "No, you go and do your work. I'm not going anywhere for the time being, just strolling around here."

A perplexed look appeared on the driver's face, and he wanted to say something.Gu Shi'an didn't wait for him to speak, and then said: "Just tell my second uncle the truth when you go back, he won't blame you."

How could he be blamed, the sentence that he left behind asking him to give her to her was just a polite word.

Then a smile appeared on the driver's face, he said some polite words to Gu Shi'an, then got in the car and left.

Gu Shi'an checked the time before walking towards the bus station.

Gu Chengde came to her for no reason, but she knew very little about Gu.She originally wanted to call Qin Tang to ask questions, but she touched the phone with her hand, so she didn't call in the end.After standing at the bus station for a while, she got on the bus.

It was already past one noon when she went back, and she didn't know if Chen Xiao was still there.I ate something outside before going back.

He took out the key and opened the door. It was deserted inside.Gu Shi'an went to the bedroom and saw that Chen Xiao had left, took out his mobile phone, and called the master who changed the lock.

She had nothing to do when she stayed, and tried to find some news about Gu's from the Internet.Gu's public relations are good, but there is no news on the Internet.Even the news that the old lady was going to sell her shares stayed more than a week ago.

His head was swollen badly, and without finding any news, Gu Shi'an closed his eyes and fell asleep.Originally, she just wanted to close her eyes and be quiet, but it was probably because she didn't sleep much last night, she closed her eyes and fell asleep in a daze.

She was awakened by the ringing of the phone, and her mind was still a little dazed. She picked up the phone and saw that it was the master who changed the lock calling, so she quickly answered the phone.

The person was already outside the door, she hung up the phone, walked out quickly and opened the door.

Changing the lock was not very troublesome. The master inspected it and suggested that she change to a more expensive anti-theft lock.It is said that her current lock is too simple, and the thief can open it without much effort.

He talked a lot, and when changing the locks, he talked about several thefts.And taught Gu Shian some common sense of anti-theft.In the end, I asked Gu Shian's friends to call him if they needed to change the lock, and he would definitely give him a discounted price.

Gu Shi'an agreed, poured him a cup of tea, and he was relieved when he paid the money and sent him out.

Staying at home is idle, and the house has not been cleaned for a long time.She tried the new lock a few times, and then got down to cleaning.

Before she finished cleaning, Qin Tang called.asked where she was.

Mostly because he was afraid that something might happen to her alone, he called her frequently during this time.

Gu Shi'an replied that he was at home.

Qin Tang said that he was downstairs and asked her to go downstairs.

He said he was downstairs, but he was actually outside the community.When Gu Shian passed by, he was standing beside the car smoking a cigarette, and he didn't know what he was thinking, until Gu Shian approached, then he came back to his senses and said something.

Before Gu Shi'an could speak, he opened the car door and said, "Get in the car."

Gu Shi'an froze for a moment, and looked at him.

Qin Tang showed a rare smile on his face, looked at her, and said slowly: "Why, are you afraid that I will sell you?"

Gu Shi'an shook his head, touched his nose, and got into the car.

Qin Tang didn't bring a driver, he drove by himself.After fastening his seat belt, Gu Shi'an asked, "Where are you going?"

Qin Tang didn't answer, just said: "You will know when you arrive."

Gu Shi'an fell silent now.She was a little absent-minded, and she became dazed while sitting.

The car stopped at a red light intersection, Qin Tang glanced at her sideways, and asked, "What's the matter?"

Gu Shian came back to his senses, and quickly shook his head.

Qin Tang didn't ask any more questions, and turned on the light when it was green.

Gu Shi'an couldn't figure out that Gu Chengde was looking for her today and wanted to send her to study abroad.After being bored for a while, she still said, "My second uncle came to see me today."

Qin Tang probably didn't have a good impression of the members of the Gu family, so he frowned, looked sideways at her, and asked, "What does he want from you?"

Gu Shi'an smiled wryly, and said: "I don't know, I went around a lot, and somehow said that they want to send me abroad to study."

Qin Tang frowned even tighter now.After a while, he looked at Gu Shi'an and asked, "Did you say anything else?"

"No."

Qin Tang didn't speak for a while, as if he was thinking about something.Compared to him, Gu Shi'an knew Gu Chengde better. After a moment of silence, he asked, "Do you know any changes in the Gu family recently?"

Qin Tang shook his head and said, "I haven't heard any news yet."

But there are some internal news that people outside may not know.

Gu Shi'an couldn't figure it out.Suddenly, I remembered Gu Chengde's words that if the fire is set, it will be set.She broke out in a cold sweat all of a sudden.

Qin Tang obviously noticed her abnormality, so he simply stopped the car on the side of the road and asked, "What did you think of?"

Gu Shi'an restrained himself to calm down, and repeated Gu Chengde's original words.

Qin Tang frowned and asked, "Do you suspect that he has something to do with the arson?"

Gu Shi'an shook his head and said, "It just occurred to me that he has no motive."

Yes, he has no motive.

Qin Tang fell silent now, and said after a while, "Any thought can become a motive." He didn't say anything more, let Gu Shi'an sit down, and then got out of the car and made a phone call.

He had been on the phone for a long time, and he couldn't hear what he said outside in the car, but his brows never loosened.

After more than ten minutes, he got in the car.He didn't drive right away, closed his eyes for a while, and then asked: "Did you suspect them when you were kidnapped last time?"

This should have been asked long ago.But after all, those people were all relatives of Gu Shian, so he never asked about it.

The person that time wanted Gu Shi'an to starve to death.And once something happened to Gu Shi'an, the real beneficiaries would be them.

As we all know, the old lady has always loved Gu Shi'an more.If something happened to Gu Shi'an, it would be tantamount to cutting off the way for the old lady to give the shares to Gu Shi'an.

Gu Shi'an was so absent-minded, and after a long time, he said in a low voice: "I don't know."

It's been so long, she didn't even think about it.Even though she was already disheartened, she was still scared after all.

Qin Tang naturally knew what she was thinking, and fell silent without speaking.

It was Gu Shi'an who came back to his senses first and asked, "Did you find anything?"

If he hadn't found anything, it was impossible for him to ask this question.

Qin Tang didn't speak for a moment, and after a while, he said calmly: "There is still no clue."

Although there is no clue, but after thinking about it, the most suspicious person is the Gu family.

Whoever benefits the most is the biggest suspect.

Gu Shi'an was so lost in thought that he didn't speak any more.

Qin Tang didn't speak either. After sitting for a while, he raised his wrist to check the time, and then started the car.

He didn't say where he was going for the rest of the time, nor did he say anything else.He didn't stop the car until he reached the ground and let Gu Shi'an get out of the car.
