Chapter 739: Tactics are too Low-Leveled
Shen Qianshu rested on Ye Ling’s arm and looked up. His shiny eyes were like the glittering stars in the sky. Ye Ling moved his head, and Shen Qianshu pulled his face over. “Are you hiding something from me?”
“Nope.”
Shen Qianshu could only deal with it and not press on further.
She felt as if Ye Ling was lying to her.
“Don’t lie to me.”
“Yeah!”
The next morning, Shen Qianshu and Ye Yifan were greeted by smiles as they went downstairs. It was as if the smiles were copied and pasted. Gu Beichen, Gu Dongxu, and Ye Yifan were actually there. Gu Beichen and Ye Yifan were discussing something. They got along really well.
Ye Ling’s face was really dark. He squinted. Zhong Ran and Ah Da were nowhere to be seen. Tong Hua was not around either. These men were actually chilling in his castle as if they were the owners of the house.
How outrageous.
He wanted to hang Zhong Ran up and whip him.
“Brother, Sister-in-law. I’m home.” Ye Yifan greeted them joyfully.
Gu Beichen’s face changed instantly. They were just on good terms with each other, but his face changed drastically. “Who’s your sister-in-law? They aren’t even married. Who are you calling?”
Ye Yifan pouted, feeling wronged.
Shen Qianshu smiled. “Fourth Brother, Fifth Brother, what made you both come here?”
She has work today? They thought.
“I’m here to have breakfast with you. I have never had breakfast with my younger sister.”
Ye Ling remained silent the whole time.
Fourth Brother was good at talking. He talked about the things that happened yesterday. Tong Hua had to do publicity today, so Lin Xiaojuan had sent people to take him away to attend an event early in the morning. In the castle, it was really quiet. The whole place had a rather aggressive atmosphere.
Shen Qianshu cursed inwardly. Goodness gracious…
Is this going to be a common thing from now on?
Not only do I have to calm people down, but I even have to be sandwiched between these people.
What a sweet burden.
Fourth Brother Gu and Fifth Brother were fighting to send Shen Qianshu to work, but they were both rejected by her. Since Ye Ling was still alive, she no longer had to interfere with AG matters. Ye Ling dealt with them. He did not announce publicly that he was still alive. Shen Qianshu did not know of his plans, and she returned back to Gubelin.
Ye Bao and Ye Feifei’s company was almost going bankrupt. They did not have many shares with AG. No one knew what Ye Ling’s plans were, so she did not bother about them.
Things in Gubelin were still as usual.
The boss treated her a little more differently.
Ever since she had gotten first place at the stone gambling competition, the boss had been unhappy.
Chen Qiuxiang said, “Boss has given quite a few opportunities to Lu Mengxi. He is discreetly stepping on you to help make Lu Mengxi rise. Be careful.”
“…” Shen Qianshu was feeling mixed emotions.
If Lu Mengxi had not been so aggressive at the stone gambling contest, she would not have caused problems with her. Now that things were at such a stage, she had no regrets. People could see it for themselves that Lu Mengxi and Shen Qianshu were clearly not on good terms.
The boss had decided to stand on Lu Mengxi’s side.
It would be a lie to say that she was not hurt by the fact.
For all these years, she had worked so painstakingly hard for Gubelin.
Although this lab was internationally famous, it was the first one in City A and the second one in Asia after all. She had done much in publicizing it as she became a popular appraiser.
Lu Mengxi laughed lightly. “I’m waiting for you to get the f*ck out of Gubelin.”
Shen Qianshu looked at her calmly. “Lu Mengxi, if I were you, I wouldn’t have the face to meet anyone else. You harmed others intentionally at the stone gambling contest. If the incident had not covered up your scandal, do you think the public would be so benevolent? You are very competitive. I didn’t even mind that you tried to make things ugly for me. However, your actions are really low-level.”
