were too tired lately, so they hadn't had a good talk about this topic. Now that things have calmed down,Zhuo Yu'an lowered his head and kissed her for a while before saying:"This time, it's my fault....At least there's a professional team like Zhu Yu'an to investigate. If even his team can't find someone through data analysis, it would be like looking for a needle in a haystack for others.
So this matter, Zhu Yu'an is in charge, Gu Ruandong is very reassured.
In the past few years, Zhu Yu'an has seen his company steadily rise and his marriage life is very happy, so he rarely experiences such tense moments.
Dan wasn't as relaxed about the situation. In fact, he was even more worried than Gu Ruan Dong. After all, besides Mrs. Zhuo who always stirred up trouble wherever there was a conflict, there were also two young children who had to go to school. They couldn't be watched over constantly.
Although it's unlikely that Dan would cause trouble for them, he's still a ticking time bomb. Besides, he hasn't figured out how to tell Tinglan about this, because with her personality, she might feel guilty for half the day and would very likely want to get involved.
But after living together for so long, even a glance or a small gesture could convey something between them.
After bringing the children home that evening, he tried his best to act normal. But there was no escaping Tinglan's gaze.
Ting Lan observed him for two days, knowing he was hiding something, but she held back from asking. She felt that even couples needed their own personal space and didn't need to inquire about everything. But after observing him for another two days, she couldn't help but be curious. She really wanted to know what was bothering him so much.
Privacy Not a chance!
She happened to be going to Zhuoyuan Technology to meet with Lawyer Zhang that afternoon, so she went to his office on the way. She was very familiar with Zhuoyuan Technology now, even more so than her own law firm. Not only did the front desk staff in the lobby greet her, but even Zhu Yu'an's secretary just glanced at her, said hello, and continued working. No one thought of informing or showing her around; they simply treated her like one of their own.
Because Cui Jie has returned to the US headquarters, Zhuo Yu'an’s personal secretary in China has been replaced. The new secretary started working recently and Mrs. Zhuo often brings the kids to wait for Mr. Zhuo after work, so there is no need to entertain them.
Zhu Yu'an was busy when he heard the sound of someone pushing open the door. Thinking it was his secretary who hadn't knocked, he frowned and looked over. The moment he saw Tinglan, he smiled.
"How did you get here" He gestured for her to sit down.
Ting Lan ignored his "invitation" and got down to business. So she sat across from him at his desk, looking serious.
Zuo Yu'an closed his notebook and, with a fake air of seriousness, said: "Lawyer Shu, which company do you want me to help PR again"
"It's about the Gu Group," Tinglan said, having kept this question bottled up for days. She got straight to the point.
Zhuo Yu'an remained calm and collected, even cracking a joke: "Gu Ruan Dong You're probably closer to him than I am. Why don't you contact him yourself"
If it weren't for the hint of vinegar-laced defiance in his tone, Tinglan almost would have been angry. She cut to the chase and asked, "What were you two talking about"
The moment Zhuo Yu'an heard her mention the Gus Group, he knew she had probably guessed something. So as he playfully teased her, he also weighed his words carefully in his mind.
"How do you know we contacted" He knew Tinglan never looked at his phone.
"Your car phone screen shows your recent calls," she said flatly.
"Lawyer Shu is really Sherlock Holmes." He himself had forgotten this detail. After saying that, seeing Tinglan's serious expression, he was afraid that if he continued to fool around, she would really get angry, so he calmed down and became serious.
"Well, I have run into a bit of a problem recently. Don't worry for now. Remember why we contacted Gu Ruandong in the first place"
Tinglan nodded, of course remembering.
He had a brother named Da'an, who was loyal enough to die for him. Da'an recently came from Southeast Asia and wanted to avenge him by finding Gu Ruandong.
Tinglan's brain went blank for a moment, she hadn't expected this. The things in the past felt distant to her, like something from a previous life. For the past two years, even Yimuyang only sent birthday wishes when it was her or the children's birthdays.
Zuo Yu'an saw her face change slightly, thinking she was afraid. He quickly got up and walked around his desk to her side, giving her a hug. "It's okay, I'm here."
Ting Lan wasn't a cowardly person. Shock outweighed fear, and she remained very rational: "So you two are going to handle this together"
"Yes, a few days ago Gu Ruandong laid plans to capture Dadaan, but the operation failed, and he got away. So for a while, there might be some danger."
"Why didn't you tell me about something so dangerous Were you afraid I'd get involved and cause trouble for you" Tinglan knew him too well.
Zhuo Yu'an didn't deny it, afraid she would be angry, he kissed her forehead, "Angry It's not that I'm afraid you'll cause trouble, it's that I'm worried about your safety."
Listening Lan wasn't angry. She's a very nice person now, with a peaceful mind. "Don't worry, I won't cause you any trouble. You know I'm very precious about my life now, and I don't want the children to have to call someone else 'Mom'..."
Zuo Yu'an felt a sharp pain in his forehead: "Shut up."
I can't bear to hear anything even slightly ominous.
Shu Tinglan just shut her mouth and didn't ask any more about it. This was something for her and Gu Ruandong to handle, if the sky fell, it wouldn't be her turn to step up. If they couldn't solve the problem, there was nothing she could do, so she just lived her life as usual.
Zhuo Yu'an held her, and she hugged him back, giving his lips a perfunctory, fleeting kiss before pulling away and standing up. "I'm leaving," she said. "I have another meeting with Lawyer Zhang to attend. You busy yourself."
This is what they call coming and going in a hurry, she really treats this as her own office.
Zhuo Yu'an felt itchy where she had kissed him, he put his arms around her shoulders and wanted to send her to the Legal Affairs Department. As soon as he touched her shoulder, she suddenly took large strides forward, broke free from his embrace, walked to the door, grabbed the doorknob, and then turned back to look at him: "I'll still have a meeting with Lawyer Zhang in a while."
Zuo Yu'an was speechless: "Are you overthinking things"
She was dressed in professional attire, her flowing hair swaying behind her with every movement, carrying a delicate fragrance. Her light makeup complemented her clear skin and exquisite features.
Zuo Yu'an, who had no ideas just now, suddenly had some, but he just waved at her: "Let's go, isn't there a meeting to be held"
Out of sight, out of mind. There's still plenty of good time to be had tonight anyway.
Ting Lan hurriedly opened the door and went out. But after just one second, she poked her head back in and said to him.
“Although I'm not involved in this, please keep me updated on the progress in real time.”
"Okay."
I thought she was leaving, but she poked her head back in and said, "Wait until I finish my meeting, then we'll go pick up the kids together."
Zhuo Yunan, who had already opened his laptop, closed it again, losing interest in work: "Come here, let's have a quick meeting first."
Responding to him was Tinglan's ruthless slam of the door.How envious."This conversation is over.After finishing their meal, Gu Ruannuan took out a small package from her bag and handed it to Lu Kuò.“This is for you, thank you for helping me all day.”"What i...
