Chapter 68 He said, don't contact me for a while

  Lu Qinghuan paused slightly on the phone, "What's wrong... Is this a rumor? I just heard your staff mention it, and recently Xu Assistant didn't come over for no reason."

  Xiao Qian's eyes narrowed slightly, and after a moment, he calmly put down the phone, turned on the speaker, and began to get dressed. He said in a low voice, "It's not that either."

  After a while, Xiao Qian said, "Recently there have been some things at home, you'd better not contact me too much for the time being."

  Lu Qinghuan was stunned, and the other end of the phone seemed to fall into a dead silence immediately.

  Xiao Qian had already put on his bathrobe when he heard the person at the door say, "Am I disturbing you?"

  Xiao Qian took a deep breath, picked up the phone and said, "It's not disturbing you, Qing Huan. I hope you can get involved in this. To be honest, Gu Yu and I haven't been getting along well lately. This is normal, but if it were usual times, I wouldn't need to care about what others think. However, I don't want anyone to drag you into this, so it's better for you to keep a distance from me recently."

  Lu Qinghuan heard him say that, and hastily said, "I'm not afraid of being implicated, the clear will be self-clear, we originally didn't have anything to hide, did we? Moreover, you and Gu Yalan will eventually get along well, your getting along well is the biggest refutation of those rumors, right? Xiao Qian...you treat Gu Yalan well, don't do anything to her...I'm worried about this."

  Xiao Qian didn't want to talk about it anymore and lightly changed the subject, "Don't worry, nothing will happen, is your matter settled?"

  "Hmm, they've already come to apologize to me, but how can you help me?"

  Xiao Qian walked out of the bathroom with his phone in hand, "It's nothing, they made a mistake themselves, I just let them realize that."

  This matter was simple, Xiao Qian just put pressure on the first major shareholder among them. After all, these shareholders are not only running a comic book company. Although Xiao Qian didn't have much understanding of the comic book company, he could easily exert pressure through the other industries of the shareholders, and let the other party compromise, indicating that they were willing to issue a statement saying it was intentional, apologize to Lu Qinghuan, and also release a statement to the media.

  Lu Qinghuan said, "Thanks again... by the way, in a few days, there's a party for illustrators, do you want to come together?"

  Lu Qinghuan paused for a moment before adding, "Bring Gu Y along."

  Xiao Qian closed his eyes and felt a headache whenever he heard Gu Yu's name.

  "I'm not quite suitable for her... let's just forget it, I've been busy lately with an investment case and probably don't have much time to go anyway."

  Hung up Lu Qinghuan's phone, Xiao Qian lay down on the big bed at once.

  The bedding was bought when Gu Yan was still around. The soft cotton sheets had a light floral pattern, making one feel like a quiet and gentle girl.

  He took a bath, but what he couldn't wash away was her scent that lingered around him.

  Closing his eyes, it was as if she were still by his side. He couldn't help but recall the way she had stormed off just now, almost kicking him out of her car before speeding away in her little vehicle.

  That's... quite vividly tense.

  He couldn't help but smile, and in his heart he cursed, serves you right, serves you right, for not cooperating properly.

  How dare you still kick.

  Let you kick Lao Zi's chin again.

  However, her action of lifting her foot was quite elegant.

  Although it's been a long time since I had the chance to practice Taekwondo, it seems like I still remember the basic movements.

  Lu Qinghuan would probably go, but he was unlikely to attend, however, the company's cocktail party was indeed in preparation.

  The next day, at the company office.

  Zhang Yali stood in front of the office desk, holding a form and said to Xiao Qian, "The company's annual party this time has been set at Bieyuan Winery. All employees will be there except for a few technical personnel who are still out of town. These are the basic plans, just sent by General Manager Guo through Yuan Chun..."

  Xiao Qian raised an eyebrow upon hearing Gu Yan's name, "Where is she?"

  This is something that Gu Yan usually discusses with him every year, but she didn't come today.

  Why?

  Zhang Yali looked at Xiao Qian with a difficult expression, "General Gu said she had something to deal with and couldn't come over."

  Xiao Qian raised an eyebrow, his face clearly written with disbelief. "What could she have that I wouldn't know?" He was familiar with what all the high-level executives in the company had been up to recently, and that included Gu Yu.

  Zhang Yali said more cautiously, "Mr. Gu said it was a private matter."

  Is it something personal?

  Xiao Qian's eyes widened in surprise.

  Personal matters... Ah, personal matters are the most important

  It's none of his business anymore, they're getting a divorce.

  So you're saying she made an excuse about having personal matters and didn't come?

  Xiao Qian slightly hummed, picked up the phone on one side, and shook it. Was there really something private, or was he simply not willing to see him?

  Xiao Qian raised his head, "Go to Gu Zong's place and tell him that we've discovered the internet investment case of a travel website called Quan Cheng Wang, which he has been paying attention to for a long time. There is some issue with funding, so it may not be possible to invest."

  Zhang Yali was taken aback and looked at Xiao Qian's calm demeanor, knowing in her heart that this was simply not true.

  But then he immediately understood, Xiao Qian was waiting for Gu Yu to come...

  Gu Yu's office.

  Yuan Chun came in and saw that he was eating dessert and drinking coffee, but said he had something to do and couldn't go to the company's wine party. He hastily closed the door and said, "Director Gu, it's not good."

  "What's wrong?"

  Xiao Zong said they investigated and found some financial problems with Quan Cheng Wang, so they might not be able to invest.

  Gu Yan raised an eyebrow and immediately sat up straight.

  She has been following up on the case of Quan Cheng Wang all along, and in order to get the company to pass the investment case, she was busy for more than a month, back and forth coordinating and reviewing, but still one-third of the company's people disagreed with this case.

  Gu Yan was already feeling annoyed, and then something unexpected happened.

  How can there be a funding problem? She has investigated repeatedly, the full process of crowdfunding is very simple, it's just a few IP engineers pulling together to create that website.

  Gu Yu secretly scolded in her heart, Xiao Qian this bastard, only knew how to intentionally find trouble for her.

  However, she still got up in a flurry, picked up the full-course web investigation report, and strode towards Xiao Qian with a menacing air.

  "Xiao Zong, I've checked the flow of funds on Quan Cheng Wang's website over a hundred times, and secretly investigated seven or eight times. Every tiny detail of the fund flow, I've already examined very clearly. How could you possibly find any problems with the funds? Where is the problem? Are you sure you're not intentionally trying to pick a fight?" Gu Yan pushed open the door and directly shouted out in anger.

  However, Xiao Qian was inside, calm and composed, with a faint gaze, his hands on the table, raising his eyes, his dark eyes gleaming with a hint of mischief, looking at her with a few hints of arrogance, and also with a few hints of complacency.

  "There must be some problem if there is one."

  "Impossible! What's wrong?!" Gu Yan's appearance was like that of a cat standing on end with all its fur raised in battle.

  "You have a problem!" Xiao Qian's eyes narrowed, his gaze turning sharp and piercing as he called out to him, "Gu Yu, what did I do to you? You're not even willing to see me now?"

  Gu Yan's small face was stuck there, blinking her eyes, looking at Xiao Qian who had a questioning expression.

  So everything before was Xiao Qian's intention?

  Gu Yu stood there, her small lips pursed tightly, a flush on her delicate face, her eyes fixed on Xiao Qian's calm and collected face. "Xiao Qian, so everything you just did was intentional?"

  Xiao Qian suddenly gathered up the documents on the table and stood up, looking at Gu Ye, "Gu Ye, we're not even divorced yet, you're hiding from your own husband like this, do you think you're doing the right thing?"

  Gu Yan thought of what he did yesterday, and his facial expression squeezed together again. "Xiao Zong said it as if he wanted to see me very much, but after half a day without seeing him, he became evasive. What's wrong? If Xiao Zong misses me, he can directly call and say so. Why use such underhanded tactics?"

  Xiao Qian leaned against it, looking at Gu Yan, "Huh, I missed you?"

  Gu Yan stood there, still wearing a short skirt, whether it was the Gu family or the Xiao family, they were both richer than ordinary people, so she could afford many new clothes.

  It can be changed every day and worn without repetition for a month.

  It's not that she's extravagant, she spent a lot of thought and time to get the corresponding rewards, which are many times more generous than ordinary people, because she also paid out a lot, so... why can't she buy these things to satisfy her own needs?

  Moreover, as a senior executive of the company, she has to meet people all the time. If she can't even dress herself neatly and make a good impression on others, how can she manage such a big company?

  So this time Gu Yu moved house, most of what was moved were clothes. Except for the ones taken back, some that would no longer be worn were also donated.
