Chapter 63 He knew something was wrong

  "Don't be polite with me, sending you home is what I should do. Since we haven't divorced yet, you're still my wife." Xiao Qian said, his eyes wandering over the streets outside.

  She sat there, took a glance at his profile, "You'd better advise your grandfather on that matter, he's not quite clear-headed for the time being, don't get into a dispute with him."

  Xiao Qian smiled and said, "Don't worry, I'm his own grandson after all, it's not like we can really fight."

  Gu Yu thought, it's true, no matter how much Grandfather dotes on her, she is just a granddaughter-in-law after all. Xiao Qian is his own grandson, what's the point of her worrying for them?

  Gu Yuexin smiled to herself, the two of them sat in the car, for a moment there was no conversation, only the sound of the engine rumbling, following the hustle and bustle outside, slowly moving forward.

  Gu Yu thought that the two of them had probably never been so calm before, as if they were being polite and courteous to maintain their original relationship.

  In the past six years of marriage, the two people were fine when they were apart, but as soon as they faced each other, all their patience and tolerance would be worn away. It's probably fate that brought them together, a match made in heaven, or rather, a pair of sworn enemies who shouldn't have been together in the first place.

  In her heart, Gu Yan felt a sour and astringent feeling. No matter what, when they finally parted ways, she would still feel sad and uncomfortable.

  After separating, will he immediately be together with Lu Qinghuan happily?

  After separating, is he happy every day, without any worries?

  She left him, and he returned to his past carefree, handsome, and perfect life that others envied.

  She was the only dissatisfaction and flaw in his life. Now that she has decided to leave, no longer holding him back, did he also breathe a sigh of relief?

  She leaned against the window, watching herself leave Xiao Garden far behind, slowly walking towards the Gu family's large courtyard. This road, she had walked countless times before, but this time, perhaps she would just keep moving forward and never look back again. That was the place where she had lived for six years, how could her heart not feel anything?

  At first, when she was welcomed by the team and walked along this road to move into Xiao's garden, she never thought that in these six years, she would become a thorn in his side, being disliked by others, which actually didn't feel good.

  Gu Yu glanced at the man beside her and said lightly, "By the way, I've renovated the house twice, and the style is a bit too dark. If you're planning to change it again, remember that I've made the drain under the bathroom deeper, so it might be difficult to change it back later. Therefore, the bathroom downstairs cannot have a bathtub installed."

  Xiao Qian's eyes moved slightly, "Uh-huh."

  "If there's any trouble, just let me know. After all, I'm the one who collected that house, and some places are not right, you don't understand and can't find the place."

  "Uh-huh."

  Xiao Qian.

  "Uh-huh"

  "For the sake of saving my family's face, I hope you won't expose your past with Lu Qinghuan too frequently in the short term. Anyway, the divorce won't drag on for too long, and I'll try to get it done as soon as possible. Considering our two families have known each other for many years, I hope you can think about the Gu family's situation."

  Xiao Qian furrowed his brow and turned his head to glare at Gu Yu, "Who told you that I had something going on with Qing Huan?"

  Gu Yu looked at him, "Oh, I thought you'd left. Don't you want to seize the time and spend happy moments with your loved one?"

  Xiao Qian closed his eyes, took a deep breath, as if suppressing the annoyance in his heart, "Gu Yu, do you mean to mock me?"

  "How is that possible? I just wanted a more pleasant atmosphere."

  Xiao Qian's cold smile, shook his head, "Forget it, you leaving is already very pleasant for me, no need to create any atmosphere, and in this aspect, you are obviously not good at it either."

  Gu Yu bit her lip, and her smile fell. She looked at the window on one side.

  Yes, she's gone and he should be happy now.

  She probably felt in her heart that it was just like this, leaving and parting ways, with some regret.

  What, is she still waiting for him to say a few sweet words? Hoping he would say, take good care of yourself, see you later, such intimate words.

  She shook her head, leaning against the window, her fingers slipped into her hair, as if she was tired and let out a sigh. "That's it, Xiao Qian, there's just one last thing I want to tell you."

  "Whether you believe it or not, Lu Qinghuan's plagiarism has nothing to do with me, I didn't know about it."

  Xiao Qian's heart was blocked by one word.

  The hand holding the steering wheel also tightened slightly.

  At first, it was also in a fit of anger that he came back to look for her, probably also angry about her relationship with Jiang Xiaoxuan.

  As it happens, this company is also related to Jiang Xiaoyun.

  Afterwards, when he went to deal with the matter again, he found that the company had changed shareholders back and forth many times, it was very chaotic. Jiang Xiaoxuan was just one of them and didn't care about anything. Thinking carefully, he hadn't seen Jiang Xiaoxuan really have any dealings with Gu Yu either, but rather he himself had acted impulsively, and in the end, he had hurt her.

  In the rearview mirror, the woman on one side quietly narrowed her eyes, which were usually big and spirited, now narrowed into a line, looking at the sunlight outside, her eyes slightly raised, looking like a lazy cat basking in the sun.

  "Mm." He said softly, and then they arrived at the Gu's mansion, stopping in the parking lot beside it. She didn't look at him, "Thanks, I'll go first."

  After getting off the car, she held onto the door and looked at him politely before closing it, "I won't invite you in either, you know, our identities are a bit awkward now."

  Xiao Qian's pursed lips moved slightly, and he nodded silently.

  As he watched Gu Yei's receding back, his heart seemed to have finally landed heavily there, but thinking that he would instantly feel relieved, at this moment he only felt a vast emptiness, as if he didn't know where to go or what to do next, whether to return to the company or go home. What was he doing before? Should he go back and continue?

  Oh, I was at the golf course earlier, but the social engagement has been cancelled, no need for him to continue, might as well head back to the company now.

  At night, he didn't return home until eleven o'clock. The house was empty and quiet. He stood there with a frown for a while, feeling somewhat uncomfortable.

  Yes, there must be something wrong with it.

  He stood still for a while in the empty living room, before suddenly remembering that when Gu Yu was not around, there were several servants taking care of this place, and it was never short of people.

  That's right, he should ask Grandpa to arrange a few more servants tomorrow, and the servant's room next door is still empty.

  Thinking of this, he returned to his room, took off his clothes and threw them aside, opened the closet door to find clothes, only to see that a lot of space had been emptied on one side.

  There, the pajamas that used to hang were all Gu Yan's. She liked wearing soft-fabric pajamas with no patterns on them, single-colored and loose-fitting, as if they didn't constrain her at all.

  He slightly furrowed his brow, closed the door, and fell onto the bed, sleeping.

  The next day, conference room.

  The air conditioner was still humming, in the conference room, several people were staring at Xiao Qian with gloomy faces, who sat in a large chair, his expression growing increasingly somber, his gaze sweeping across the room, making everyone shiver.

  "Director Xiao, this time's internet investment case has one-third of investors who do not agree. Several investors we have cooperated with in the past are watching and waiting, temporarily seeming to not dare to invest again. They worry that future market conditions will be poor. According to a new document released this morning, it seems that there will be restrictions on internet development in the near term. It appears that investors are worried that under these restrictions, e-commerce will decline and investments will not yield returns in the short term."

  Venture capital firms are essentially intermediaries that attract investors to invest in companies. They have excellent management personnel, superior management resources, and much more experience than start-ups that need funding, as well as a vision for the future. As such, they play a dual role, on the one hand attracting investment, and on the other helping invested companies develop better, thereby earning intermediate benefits.

  Xiao's venture capital investments often amount to tens of millions, with project funding exceeding 100 million, making it more complicated than smaller investment companies.

  Xiao's eyebrows furrowed, the lines at the corners of his lips tightened into a straight line, and his brow was tightly knitted. His hands were clenched into fists, with visible veins bulging out, as he slammed them on the table, looking at several people, "If there are problems, go solve them! This case has been going on for over a month now, and we've only made this little progress? What's the point of holding a meeting now? Are you trying to show me how many useless people I've hired for the company?"

  Several people lowered their heads and didn't dare speak.

  At this time, the outer door was pushed open again with a crisp sound.

  "Sorry, I'm late." Gu Ye's voice came in a clear and shallow tone. Inside, Xiao Qian's eyebrows slightly raised, furrowed his brow, tilted his head, and looked outwards.

  By the way, is there an update?
