Confess to you, do you want to listen?

Chapter 228 Trading
He asked candidly.But in fact, he knew it well, and Chen Xiao didn't know it.If Chen Xiao was willing to reveal anything to Gu Shi'an, it would be impossible for her to come to him.

"I don't know." Gu Shi'an replied.She was waiting for the right time to ask, but now she was silent for a while, and asked in a low voice: "What's going on at the company? I went there, and it seems that many people have changed there."

Assistant Sun stopped talking now.After dozens of seconds or longer, he said, "I'm sorry, Ms. Gu, it's an internal secret, I can't tell you."

His answer was something that Gu Shi'an had already expected.She was not surprised, she raised a pair of clear eyes to look at Assistant Sun, and said, "I don't want to know those secrets, I just want you to tell me about Chen Xiao's current situation."

The more she spoke, the harsher her voice became.The fingers curled up unconsciously.Her shoulders were thin, her body leaned forward slightly, begging humblely.

Her face was pale and her lips were slightly chapped.

Assistant Sun didn't even dare to look at her. He was going to leave after a few sentences.Averting his eyes now, he said, "Miss Gu, you should trust Mr. Chen." After a slight pause, he continued, "Go back first, and I will notify you if there is any news in the future." As if to express He didn't mean to be perfunctory to Gu Shian, he took out a pen and paper, wrote a series of numbers in a hurry and handed it to Gu Shian, saying: "The previous number is temporarily useless. You can directly call this number in the future."

Gu Shi'an took the paper and said thank you.

What Assistant Sun said was as if he hadn't said anything.In the end, she still didn't find out anything.

On the contrary, Assistant Sun seemed to know what she was thinking, and said, "Things are not as bad as you think. President Chen already has a plan. Don't act rashly."

This means that Gu Shi'an should not intervene, so as not to disrupt Chen Xiao's plan.

He said without changing his face, Gu Shi'an didn't even know if what he said was true or not.She was silent for a moment, then nodded.

It was almost two o'clock when Gu Shi'an left, and the sky was gloomy.It seemed like there was going to be a snowstorm at any moment.

Her mind was in a mess and she didn't drive home.Unknowingly, he drove the car to the gate of the new house.

Knowing that with Chen Xiao's order, the security will not let her in.She didn't go in either, so she parked the car outside and watched the vehicles coming in and out of the door through the car window.

She didn't know how long she stopped, but she came to her senses amidst the vibrating sound of her mobile phone.Turning out the phone, it was Gu Lan who called.

Gu Shi'an looked at it, picked up the phone, and called the big lady.

Gu Lan asked where she was, and then said: "I paid my salary today, and I bought your favorite dishes, can you come over for dinner?"

She asked cautiously, as if she was afraid that Gu Shi'an would not agree.

Ever since she found out the cause of Gu Shi'an's father's car accident, she has always felt guilty towards her.

Gu Shi'an knew Gu Lan's character very well, so he smiled and said hello.I looked at the time and asked if she was still in the company, and she went there to pick her up.

Gu Lan said that she had been working overtime for half a month, and the department manager gave her half a day off. She has gone home now, so Gu Shian can just go there directly.

Gu Shi'an agreed, and then asked Gu Lan if he needed to buy anything.

Gu Lan replied that she had already bought everything that should be bought, so she didn't need to bring anything.

Having said that, Gu Shi'an still went to buy fruit and some snacks and brought them over.Gu Lan lives in the house given by the old lady, and Gu Shi'an has been here before.He didn't call her, just parked the car and went straight up.

All the way up the elevator, Gu Shi'an didn't call her, but knocked on the door when he reached the door.

The door opened quickly, and the person who came out to open the door was not Gu Lan, but Cheng Xin.

Gu Shi'an didn't expect that she was there, so he was slightly taken aback, but he quickly called his aunt politely.

Cheng Xin nodded as usual, and let her in.

Neither of the two spoke, but Gu Lan, who was in the kitchen, heard the voice and said a little uncomfortably, "Sit down for a while, it will be fine in a while."

She asked Gu Shi'an to come over for dinner, but she didn't say that Cheng Xin was also there.She carefully observed Gu Shi'an's expression, afraid that she would just leave.

Gu Shi'an didn't leave, he smiled and said hello, and sat down on the sofa.

Cheng Xin went into the kitchen very quickly, she didn't know what she said to Gu Lan, Gu Lan quickly dried her hands and poured a cup of tea for Gu Shi'an.

Gu Shi'an said now: "You are busy with your work, don't worry about me."

Gu Lan was still uncomfortable, and said, "You won't be angry, will you?"

Gu Shi'an naturally knew what she meant, shook his head and smiled slightly, and said, "No."

Gu Lan breathed a sigh of relief, and asked about Gu Shi'an's recent situation.

The two talked for a while and Cheng Xin asked Gu Lan to take the bowls and chopsticks to set the meal, and Gu Lan quickly stood up.

Gu Shi'an also wanted to help, but Gu Lan refused.She had to continue to sit on the sofa.

Just as the food was being served, there was another knock on the door.Now Gu Lan quickly opened the door.

It was Gu Chengping who came over, and his hair turned completely white in a short period of time.Probably no one told him that Gu Shi'an was there, so he was slightly taken aback.Then he called Shi'an in a low voice.

Gu Shi'an, as usual, politely called uncle.

With a gloomy face, Gu Chengping squeezed out a smile and sat down on the sofa.

Gu Lan and Cheng Xin were busy in the kitchen, he and Gu Shi'an had nothing to say.Several times I wanted to speak, but in the end I swallowed the words back.

No one spoke, and the air in the living room seemed to be stagnant.Fortunately, Gu Lan brought the dishes to the table in a short while, and came over to ask for dinner.

The meal was obviously carefully prepared, and Gu Lan even prepared red wine.At the dinner table, she was always the one enlivening the atmosphere. Everyone cooperated, and the atmosphere was quite good.

Although Gu Lan prepared red wine, everyone just drank a little.Only Gu Chengping drank more.

He didn't talk much in the first place, and even less after drinking.He was ashamed to see Gu Shi'an, after the meal, he got up and left.

Cheng Xin was worried after he drank, so he asked Gu Lan to take him to the car first.She stayed.

Gu Shi'an knew that she had something to say, so he waited silently for her to speak.

Cheng Xin didn't make any detours, and said, "Shi'an, I'm sorry. Your uncle has been guilty all these years." She was slightly in a trance, paused, recovered, and continued: "He later , I was going to say it. I stopped him. If you want to blame, blame the aunt."

Gu Chengping is the most honest one among the brothers. At that time, he was blinded by selfishness and hid the matter.

But after feeling guilty day after day, he could no longer bear it.He planned to go to the old lady to clarify and tell Gu Shi'an, but she stopped him in the end.Because, she knows too well what kind of storm this matter will cause.No one wants to live a peaceful and peaceful life.

The couple have been indifferent to Gu Shian these years, in fact, it is also because of guilt.The closer you get, the more you can't control those guilt.In the end, they simply stayed away.

Gu Shi'an didn't expect that she stayed here to say these things.She suddenly thought of Gu Chengping's full head of white hair.To say it's not weird at all is a lie.But what's the use of being strange?
Gu Shi'an lost his mind for a moment, then forced a smile and said, "Auntie, I don't blame you, and you told uncle not to think too much. It's all in the past."

Cheng Xin fell silent, and said thank you in a low voice.

She didn't stay long and left soon.Leaving Gu Shian alone in the room.

Gu Lan came back soon, she first looked at Gu Shi'an's face, seeing that she couldn't see anything, then she went to clean up the dishes while talking.

There are not many bowls for four people to eat, and Gu Shian would not let her help.Gu Shi'an didn't sit alone in the living room, he just helped a little.

It was already dark outside, Gu Lan went to put hot water after clearing away the dishes and let Gu Shi'an sleep here.

Although she didn't drink much, she drank some at least.Not suitable for driving.

Gu Shi'an wanted to refuse, but seeing Gu Lan's expectant face, he finally forced a smile and said yes.

Gu Lan went to put hot water for her, and talked about some interesting things that happened to her at work recently.Try to make the atmosphere more relaxed and active.

She has been busy and tired recently, but she is extremely fulfilling.It is much more fulfilling than the life of the rich young lady in those years.After losing herself for so many years, during this period of work, she slowly found her former self.

The two of them finished washing early and sat on the sofa talking without watching TV.Gu Shi'an hadn't seen Gu Lan so talkative for a long time, and he kept talking with a smile on his face.

After talking for a long time, Gu Lan suddenly asked, "Is Chen Xiao okay?"

Gu Shi'an didn't expect that she would ask this topic, so he couldn't help but froze for a moment.Then she forced a smile and said, "It's pretty good."

Gu Lan shook her head lightly, and said, "You don't have to hide it from me anymore, I've heard about it." She bit her lips subconsciously when she said this, and said, "My dad said just now, and now that proud man If you want to find out the flaws, you can only find out the people behind him. If you find evidence of his collusion with Xiao Si, the board of directors will definitely give more consideration."

What Chen Xun and Xiao Si have in common is that they both hate Chen Xiao.Of course, hatred alone is certainly not enough to drive Xiao Si.Xiao Si has always been a cunning old fox, how could he make wedding dresses for others in vain.This shows that there is a deal between him and Chen Xun.

And Xiao Si's ambition has always been big.Chen Xun couldn't hold him down at all, and he wouldn't be his opponent.Therefore, the transaction behind this must not be small.

On Chen Xun's side, the only bargaining chip he could get was the Chen family.

The interests of the Chen family, this is not something that Chen Xun can decide.Xiao Si should know these things.Therefore, what he intends should not be profit.

Gu Shi'an was startled, Xiao Si's subordinates had a lot of shady business.Could it be that he wants to use the Chen family to cover up his shady deals?
Being involved in Xiao Si's shady business, Gu Shi'an knew the consequences too well.In a short time, the palm of her hand was wet and greasy.

She knew these consequences, and of course Chen Xun was also aware of them.He and Chen Zhengkang have always used unscrupulous means. In order to bring down Chen Xiao, they will do whatever they can.

So, it's entirely possible.I just don't know if Chen Xiao knows.

No, it's impossible for Chen Xiao not to know things that outsiders can see through.

Gu Shi'an's heart was in a mess at this moment.To start with Chen Xun is easy to say, but difficult to do.He and Xiao Si's shady deal, where is it so easy to get evidence?
Her mind was in a mess, and she wanted to call Chen Xiao immediately, but she restrained herself in the end.

She quickly calmed herself down, and said to Gu Lan seriously: "Sister, thank you. Please also thank uncle for me."

Gu Lan told her not to be polite, reached out to hold her hand, and said, "Shi'an, if you treat me as an outsider, just tell me if there is anything I can help you with."

They have helped her a lot. It can be said that she is able to have what she is now because of their help.At this time, even if she knew that her strength was meager, she still had to do her best.

Gu Shi'an squeezed out a smile and said hello.

In the following time, Gu Shi'an was in no mood to chat anymore.Gu Lan naturally knew about it, and took her to the guest room.Let her rest well.

Gu Shi'an couldn't fall asleep, so he lay down on the bed for a while, then took out his mobile phone and called Chang Qi.Now, the only person she can turn to for help is Chang Ji.

Before the call was made, she hung up the phone.Whether it was Xiao Si or Chen Xun, they were both cruel and merciless.She can't let Chang Yi take any risks for her.

Gu Shi'an took a deep breath, restrained himself from being confused, and calmed down.

How could she calm down with such a big matter.Finally, he simply got up from the bed and sat on the floor with his knees hugged.

The ground was bone-chillingly cold, and she gradually calmed down over time.

Whether it is to get close to Chen Xiao or Xiao Si, it is obviously not easy.It is even more difficult to obtain evidence of the transaction between the two.

Xiao Si is different from Chen Xun, he is many times smarter and cunning than Chen Xun.Therefore, it is almost impossible to start from him.

The only way to attack, as Gu Chengping said, is to attack from Chen Xun's side.

Gu Shian took a deep breath, closed his eyes and leaned against the wall.

She knew that in her capacity, even if she got close to Chen Xun, she might not be able to gain his trust.Although Chen Xun is conceited, he is not stupid.He must guard against her.She has to find a way to gain her trust.

At this moment, Gu Shi'an remembered what Assistant Sun said today, and she didn't believe what he said that Chen Xiao had already arranged.If he really had an arrangement, he wouldn't stay in the old house.

Gu Shi'an restrained himself from thinking about anything, climbed onto the bed, and closed his eyes.

Her mind is like a mess now, she must calm down completely and sort it out slowly.

She didn't sleep well last night, and suddenly there were more things on her mind.Before she could figure out why, her head began to ache faintly.She stretched out her hand and pressed it hard, restraining herself not to think about anything.

The night was quiet, with faint lights coming in from outside the window.It was suffocatingly quiet.

It was already late when Gu Shi'an fell asleep, and she got up early the next day.She originally wanted to leave quietly, but who knew that Gu Lan woke up earlier than her, and was already in the kitchen.

Hearing her footsteps, she came out of the kitchen wearing an apron and said, "Why are you up so early?"

She naturally knew that Gu Shi'an slept late last night.Knowing that she won't stay here for a long time, she got up early to make breakfast.

Because he didn't sleep well, Gu Shi'an's eyes were a little swollen.She squeezed out a smile and said, "I woke up when I couldn't sleep."

Gu Lan didn't ask any more questions, and asked her to wash up, saying that breakfast would be ready in a while.

When she was at Qiu's house, she and her aunt almost always cooked breakfast for the whole family, so it was easy to make breakfast for two people.When Gu Shi'an came out of the kitchen, she brought out the steamed steamed buns.

Before the porridge was ready, she prepared a cup of hot milk for Gu Shian.

A breakfast ends in silence.Gu Lan had to go to work, but Gu Shian wanted to see her off but she refused, saying that the company was close.It won't be long before we arrive.She was worried about Gu Shi'an, hesitated for a moment, and finally asked: "Are you going home or where?"

Gu Shi'an didn't want to make her worry, so he said to go back first.

Gu Lan was still worried, and told her to call her if she had anything to do. After seeing Gu Shi'an drove away in the car, she walked in the direction of the company.

Gu Shi'an didn't go home as he told Gu Lan, but drove directly to Gu's side.

She had already rejected Chen Xun that night, and it was not easy to find another chance to approach him.She had to find out when he was traveling and his recent itinerary.

She went there early, as if she knew that the Chen family had changed owners, and the whole building was lifeless.

In the past, Chen Xiao would commute with his employees. Gu Shi'an originally thought that Chen Xun would definitely set an example when he took office.But it didn't.Her car stopped after ten o'clock, only to see a motorcade slowly approaching Chen's gate.

Chen Xun's trip was very ostentatious. When the car stopped, someone stepped forward to open the door for him.However, after a short distance to the company, there were seven or eight bodyguards.

This position has not yet been settled, and the pomp has been laid out first.Gu Shi'an couldn't help sneering in his heart.

She couldn't enter the Chen family, she saw Chen Xun and went in.She was supposed to drive away.But when she turned her head and saw the recruitment sign in the coffee shop next to her, she paused.

But for a moment, she quickly started the car.I found a parking lot nearby and parked the car, then went back to the entrance of the cafe.

This coffee shop is close to Chen's, and Chen's employees must often come and go in it.As long as someone comes over, the news from the Chen family can be heard to some extent.

Colleagues in the same company will definitely gossip when they have nothing to do.

The cafe recruited waiters, and the recruitment was stricter than Gu Shian imagined.Know the type of coffee.

Gu Shi'an has always drank coffee just to refresh himself, and has never studied it carefully.Fortunately, Gu Lan worked in a coffee shop, and the two occasionally heard her talk about it when they were chatting.

A novice store manager like her is not very desirable, but it has been difficult to recruit people recently.After thinking about it, let Gu Shi'an try it out for a week.If she can learn almost everything she needs to learn in a week, let her stay.

Gu Shian complied.

At the beginning, she had nothing to do, and followed the person appointed by the store manager to learn about the types of coffee and how to receive customers.

As she imagined, most of the customers in this coffee shop are white-collar workers from the opposite building.

There are fewer things to do in the morning, but it starts to get busy at noon.Gu Shi'an thought that he could hear some news, but he didn't.Completely unfamiliar with her, she was accused of running around.

There are also some employees from Mrs. Chen's side, but they are all unfamiliar faces.Even the security guards have been changed, and the secretary's room has also been completely changed.Gu Shi'an didn't see a single old face.

The advantage of working in a coffee shop is that you can see the movement of the opposite side anytime and anywhere through the floor-to-ceiling windows.The Chen family is now much stricter than when Chen Xiao was there, and unfamiliar vehicles or people entering and exiting need to be registered one by one and checked one by one.It has to be said that Chen Xun is careful.

Chen Xun obviously didn't have much work in the Chen family, and at four o'clock in the afternoon, the motorcade drove out of the Chen family.The mighty don't know where to go.

After half a day of running-in, Gu Shi'an has become half acquainted with his colleagues in the coffee shop.When she had nothing to do, she pretended to be curious and asked the people in the opposite building.

Once the topic is brought up, gossip comes out one after another.The changes in Chen's family can't be hidden from the shop assistants who have been working here for a long time.Someone mentioned that the company opposite had changed many people, and many familiar faces had already left.

Some people complained that the new boss was too unreasonable. In the past, coffee was delivered in the building.Although you can't go upstairs, you can send it to the front desk.

But now the idlers over there can't get close, and during working hours, almost no one will come out.The business in the coffee shop is much worse.

I don't know who leaked these gossips. Some shop assistants even mentioned the relationship between Chen Xiao and Chen Xun.And worried about Chen Xiao, being squeezed out by this half-brother, it might not be easy to come back.

Before Gu Shi'an finished listening to the gossip, the phone rang.During working hours, she couldn't answer the phone, so she was about to hang up the phone.But when he took out the phone, he realized that the call was from Qi Shiyun.

Gu Shi'an looked at it, pressed the mute button, and put the phone back in his pocket.

But Qi Shiyun was relentless, and the phone rang again after one round.

Gu Shi'an looked over to the store manager, and seeing that he wasn't paying attention, he quickly walked to the bathroom and picked up the phone.
