40. He dotes on you
Gu Qingyou suddenly opened her eyes. Before she could even see what happened to Qu Liyuan, a man wearing a blue suit and a pair of gold-rimmed glasses walked in front of her.
Seeing that Gu Qingyou was safe and sound, An Yaru immediately ran to her side.
The man spoke in a respectful tone, "I'm sorry. Madame, I have just frightened you."
Fortunately she had a good memory, Gu Qingyou quickly recalled this person.
He seemed to be one of Ye Shuo's subordinates, and at that time, when Jiang Jun had asked Ye Shuo to come and negotiate with her, he was by his side. She had been impressed by the gold-rimmed glasses he wore.
Gu Qingyou paused for a moment, and asked softly: "What are you doing here?"
"Assistant Ye said to explain it to you personally."
After saying that, the man dialed Ye Shuo's number.
Gu Qingyou was still unclear about the situation.
When the call co ected, the man gave the phone to Gu Qingyou and retreated to the side.
Gu Qingyou hesitated for a moment, then placed the phone by his ear: "Hello."
On the other end of the phone, Ye Shuo asked with concern, "Madam, are you alright?"
"I'm fine, why did you send someone over?"
"After Boss Jiang received your call, he immediately sent me to investigate the troubles you had. Originally, even those underworld people could be dealt with, but Boss Jiang was worried that in the future, you would be troubled over Ms. Qu's matter. He could only let Madam personally see Ms. Qu's true face, thus, I only ordered Cui Hao to take action at the last moment."
Gu Qingyou's body froze slightly, "You mean, Boss Jiang knows about my mother?"
Ye Shuo answered, "The last time you went to see Ms. Qu, Boss Jiang already knew about it."
"Last time ..."
Gu Qingyou muttered. Suddenly, her heart sank and her slender fingers tightened on her phone.
Ever since Ye Shuo told her about the matter of there being a reporter waiting at the Jiang's Mansion entrance, she had always been confused — — That day when she went to see her mother, it seemed like there were no reporters following her, because no news about it had spread.
If the news of her meeting with her mother was caught by the reporters, it would definitely be a piece of news that would cause a huge uproar.
But from the looks of it, it was not that there were no reporters that day, but Jiang Jun had handled the matter, which was why the news did not leak out.
In other words, Jiang Jun already knew that she had a mother who had once made a mistake, sucked in poison, and loved to gamble?
Ye Shuo continued, "In a while, Cui Hao will send Ms. Qu to the police station in the name of gambling in the underground casino. In the short term, Ms. Qu will not be able to leave the prison."
Gu Qingyou lowered his eyes, "Then the one million just now was directly given to the underworld?"
"Boss Jiang said that if you can exchange the one million yuan for you to clearly see Ms. Qu's true appearance, it will be worth it." Ye Shuo answered truthfully.
At this moment, the softest string in the depths of Gu Qingyou's heart was plucked once. After a long time, she opened her mouth and asked, "What is Boss Jiang doing now?"
"Boss Jiang is currently participating in the first bid to develop the 7-star hotel project in N Sea. The second bid will be in half a month."
"Oh, okay."
"Do you have any other instructions?"
Realizing that Ye Shuo was asking her if she had any objections to her mother's treatment, Gu Qingyou looked at Qu Liyuan who was knocked out on the ground by Cui Hao's hands using a stick. For a long time, she stared at that sagging and haggard face, doing her best to control her shaky eyes. Finally, her hoarse voice firmly said, "No."
Ye Shuo said, "Then Madam, please give the phone to Cui Hao."
On the way home in An Yaru's car, Gu Qingyou quietly leaned back on the car seat and did not say a single word.
Through the rearview mirror, An Yaru saw that Gu Qingyou's face was pale and couldn't help but say in consolation, "Qingyou, don't be sad. Aunt Qu taking your life for money, this means she has never loved this daughter of yours. From the start to the end, she only treated you as a tool to repay her debts. Such a crazy mother is not worth for you to feel sorry for her! "
Gu Qingyou's scattered gaze fell outside the window. The wind was blowing strongly, causing her eyes to turn dry, but she did not blink once. I know that I just need a little time to accept this, because I've always longed for a little bit of motherly love from her, if only a little bit." She spoke softly, seemingly without sadness.
An Yaru's eyes that were looking at the road ahead suddenly reddened and he said hoarsely, "Qingyou, God treats everyone fairly. He has given you pain and hardship now, and in the future, he will definitely give you happiness and happiness. God will not forget you."
A teardrop flowed down from the corner of Gu Qingyou's left eye, slowly flowing down her flawless and fair face.
She rarely shed tears, even at the most difficult moment. However, at this moment, she was unable to control herself. She could only allow herself to shed a single tear.
The wind, with its faint sand, hurt her tearstained cheeks, and her eyes were as hopeless as a desert.
"However, it turns out that Boss Jiang isn't someone who cares about this one million. So the one million he gave you last time, he actually didn't tell you it was an advance, did he?" An Yaru suddenly changed the topic, in order to make Gu Qingyou's heart feel better, and of course it was also to satisfy his own curiosity.
Gu Qingyou swallowed the dryness in his throat and calmly replied, "Yes, last time I didn't want you to think too much about my relationship with him, so I didn't tell you the truth."
"It seems that Boss Jiang is not as cold as what the rumors say. He seems to be good to you." An Yaru probed Gu Qingyou with extreme curiosity.
"He is very deep. It is very difficult for me to understand him, but he is indeed not bad to me. Sometimes when I offend him, he does not blame me." Gu Qingyou slowly spat out.
Hearing that, An Yaru's eyes lit up. Looking at Gu Qingyou in the rearview mirror, she giggled, "He can take care of your little willfulness, gave you money, and helped you solve your problem. It seems he really dotes on you!"
"You have too much imagination. He and I only respect each other." Gu Qingyou replied indifferently.
"Okay, I won't say anything anymore. I know it's unlikely. After all, even if you were with him, it would still be disgraceful. Even more so, you wouldn't do such a thing. However, have you thought about it?" An Yaru paused, "You have to handle this relationship carefully."
Gu Qingyou did not understand what An Yaru meant, and turned to look at his good friend.
An Yaru coughed, "I am usually just joking with you, but I have to remind you, since you know that it is impossible between you and Boss Jiang, then you must take care of your own heart. Boss Jiang is a person that all women in C City dream about, he is young, wise and handsome, and you are with him everyday, he treats you well. If this goes on, I'm afraid your feelings for him will unknowingly develop. To be honest, if you fall in love with him, he is destined not to be with you, and you will be very miserable in the future."
Gu Qingyou, who had never thought of this question before, froze for a moment.
