"Ding dong!"
The phone on the office desk rang.
Xie Guanyan shifted his gaze from the computer screen and reached out to pick up his phone.
Seeing the message sent by Shen Yihan, the noble and handsome man frowned slightly.
The company dinner, and he was asked to pick up Lin Mo?
It was not hard to see that Shen Yihan's intention was to get him to pick up Lin Mo.
The excuse of the company dinner was rather lame.
How could the president of a company not be able to decline a company dinner?
And Shen Yihan was a person who valued his sister very much, which could be seen from many aspects.
He always wore that string of black Buddhist beads on his wrist.
He was willing to exchange a real - estate worth one billion for the shabby old villa where he was currently living.
So what was going on today?
What had happened?
Moreover, even if Shen Yihan was really unavailable, wasn't Gu Jingchuan in the hospital?
Couldn't Gu Jingchuan just send her back to the villa?
Why did Shen Yihan want him to pick up Lin Mo?
Xie Guanyan tapped his fingertips on the back of the phone twice, and his deep and cold eyes fell on the last line of the message.
[You don't need to bring anything to visit the patient.]
The implication here was obvious.
If he went to pick up Lin Mo, he couldn't just wait downstairs. He had to bring something up.
The thing wasn't the key; the key was to go to the ward.
After all, the ward number was clearly written.
The afternoon sun shone in through the large floor - to - ceiling window, pouring down on the man's superior and straight back.
His fingers with clear joints adjusted his glasses frame, and there was a bit of confusion in the depths of his eyes.
He couldn't refuse this request.
He was eager to have more time to be with Lin Mo. Every extra minute and second was precious.
But he wouldn't go there muddle - headedly.
When Lin Mo first came back, he knew every move of hers like the back of his hand.
But after she met Gu Jingchuan, he tried his best to control his dark side.
Knowing too much was just torturing himself.
But now the situation was that he had to know what had happened.
He didn't reply to Shen Yihan's WeChat message immediately. Instead, he exited the WeChat interface.
After hesitating for a few seconds, he dialed a number.
The other side answered quickly, "Hello, boss!"
Xie Guanyan sat on the boss's chair and turned around, crossing his long legs casually and facing the large floor - to - ceiling window.
The afternoon sun was still a bit dazzling. He reached out his hand to block it, and his voice showed little emotion, "Tell me everything that happened today in detail."
As he said this, his heart started to beat violently, and boundless darkness welled up in his eyes.
At this moment, it seemed as if time had gone back to the days in No. 1 Middle School.
In the cafeteria, the bright and dazzling girl was sitting face - to - face with Gu Jingchuan, having a meal.
He was sitting in the corner, peeping at their every move.
Every smile of the girl was like a needle pricking his heart.
She smiled so beautifully, but that smile only belonged to Gu Jingchuan!
But he had to admit that they were a handsome man and a beautiful woman, a rich second - generation and a young lady. How well - matched they were.
He was like a bug in the gutter, insanely jealous of Gu Jingchuan and wishing he could kill him.
But what would happen if he killed Gu Jingchuan?
There would still be Wang Jingchuan, Li Jingchuan.
No one could resist the charm of a shining star. He couldn't kill all the people around her!
The bodyguard replied, "Miss Lin came in the car of Shen Yihan's secretary this morning. After she arrived at the ward, a celebrity named Li Huanyu went in soon. Not long after, Gu Jingchuan also arrived at the hospital."
"Gu Jingchuan went to the ward area and hugged Li Huanyu. Li Huanyu and Gu Jingchuan had had an affair. Now the Internet says that the two are in a relationship. She had a car accident today, and one of her arms was broken."
"Then Gu Jingchuan took that woman to the next - door ward. He came out once in the middle. The two walked hand in hand past the door of the ward where Miss Lin was staying, and Shen Yihan closed the door."
"In the afternoon, Shen Yihan, his special assistant, secretary, and Ji'an, the fourth son of the Shen family, all left. Only Miss Lin, the patient, and a nurse were in the ward."
"Gu Jingchuan has been accompanying Li Huanyu all day. I don't know which of them has constipation. They have been walking back and forth in the corridor all afternoon."
"So far, that's what happened."
The two bodyguards were tall and big, so they were easy to spot.
Although they had received professional training, they couldn't get too close. What they described was what they had seen.
They would find out the name and identity information of each person so that the boss could ask at any time.
After listening to the bodyguard's report in one breath, the fingertips of Xie Guanyan holding the phone gradually turned white, and a shadow covered his eyebrows.
So today, Gu Jingchuan's rumored girlfriend went to the ward to see Lin Mo.
And after Gu Jingchuan arrived at the hospital, he chose to accompany his rumored girlfriend.
Gu Jingchuan didn't firmly choose Lin Mo.
He really deserved to die. He didn't deserve Lin Mo's love!
Lin Mo must be very sad now, right?
In this situation, was this the purpose of Shen Yihan asking him to go there...
A guess emerged in Xie Guanyan's mind, and his handsome browbones slightly lowered.
Shen Yihan had seen that he liked Lin Mo!
Even though he had been so restrained, was it still noticed?
So was Shen Yihan helping him?
Because, in principle, this was a good opportunity for him to take advantage of the situation.
The words "seize the opportunity when someone is vulnerable" made Xie Guanyan slightly stunned. The next second, his eyes behind the glasses were filled with excitement and madness.
Could he? Could he seize the opportunity when she was vulnerable?
Should he give it a try?
Maybe he could take Gu Jingchuan's place.
Now he was no longer the penniless young man he used to be.
He loved her more than Gu Jingchuan did!
He would always choose her firmly!
Just thinking about the possibility that Shan Shan might fall in love with him, the man in a white suit, gentle and noble, felt his breathing become hot, and his chest couldn't help rising and falling.
Subconsciously, he slowly clenched his left fist, and his fingertips uncovered the wound in his palm. The intense pain made him regain his calm and self - restraint.
He was so dark and perverted. He didn't deserve Shan Shan.
But neither did Gu Jingchuan!
The handsome man, whose breathing had calmed down, closed his eyes. His thick and long eyelashes cast a mottled shadow on his face.
"I understand," he said to the bodyguard.
Shen Yihan didn't receive a reply from Xie Guanyan for several minutes.
He was as anxious as a frantic king!
He kept looking at the message he had sent over and over again.
It seemed to him that there was nothing wrong with it.
He had even found an excuse. All Xie Guanyan needed to do was take advantage of the situation.
His original intention was to use Xie Guanyan to drive Gu Jingchuan away, but it was also a good opportunity for Xie Guanyan to get along with his sister!
Could it be that he had misjudged? In fact, did Mr. Xie not like his sister?
Oh no!
Shen Yihan kept twirling the Buddhist beads on his right wrist with his left hand.
Now the time had long exceeded two minutes, and it was too late to recall the message!
Shen Yihan raised his hand with the Buddhist beads to rub his temples and quickly typed another message.
[Mr. Xie, the dinner gathering has been cancelled. I can pick up my sister myself. I won't trouble you. Sorry for disturbing you!]
But as soon as this message was sent, Xie Guanyan replied.
[Huh? Cancelled? Are you sure?]
Shen Yihan's eyes widened. What did this mean?
It was so hard to guess what the big shot was thinking!
He hesitated and typed, [It seems it hasn't been cancelled...]
Xie Guanyan: [Okay, eat more.]
