"Please don't belittle yourself. When the matter is investigated, I will naturally give everyone a reasonable explanation, "Gu Tanfeng answered the reporters' questions unhurriedly.
Philip, who was watching from the side, was really impressed by Gu Tanfeng's level of pretentiousness. It was already an urgent matter, but Gu Tanfeng still pretended to be so calm.
Just as Philip was feeling smug, a group of police officers came to investigate the situation. The police dropped the surveillance footage at the door, proving that the cement that was being used was not imported by Gu Tanfeng's company. The evidence showed that it was imported by Philip's company. This time, Philip was furious. Just as he was about to run away, Gu Tanfeng shouted, "Look, isn't that Philip? Hurry up and ask him what's going on. This is good news that will be on the headlines. Don't miss the good opportunity to report it! " With Gu Tanfeng's shout, the reporters all changed their target and surrounded Philip.
Originally, they wanted to frame Gu Tanfeng, but they did not expect that in the end, they would shoot themselves in the foot. Philip could not speak of his bitterness. He was indeed the one who imported the cement. Originally, he wanted to frame Gu Tanfeng, but he did not expect that Gu Tanfeng was prepared. He secretly installed a surveillance camera and recorded the whole process.
Not only did Philip not use Gu Tanfeng's funds, but he also gave his own funds to Gu Tanfeng. He really suffered a double loss! Philip, of course, made a mental note of it. He would not let it go so easily. He would not let Gu Tanfeng off just like that.
"Philip, what did you do? How could you be so careless?" Philip's uncle, who was also Daphne's father, was on the phone with Philip, complaining about Philip's carelessness.
"I'm sorry, Uncle. I was too careless." What explanation could Philip have? The result was in front of him. He had lost to Gu Tanfeng. This was already a fact, and Philip had nothing to say. But it was also true that he would not let this matter rest.
"Since it's already happened, what's the use of apologizing? The most important thing now is how to remedy it. "Philip's uncle criticized Philip very seriously.
"Uncle is right. I will start other projects to make up for the losses here. Please rest assured, Uncle, this setback won't knock me down. " Phillip was not a shameless monk, or else he would not be on par with a business tycoon like Gu Tanfeng. It was just that people like Phillip were cruel and merciless, and he would not hesitate to sell his conscience for his own benefit. This was the substantial difference between him and Gu Tanfeng.
"Yes, I believe in your ability." Philip's uncle Andre spoke confidently of his nephew as a very capable man. Then, "Have you seen your cousin Daphne again lately? The Mu Jia was already urging them to get engaged. If we offend the Mu Family at this juncture, our days will be even more difficult. Do you understand? " Andre spoke of the importance of this matter seriously. It would directly affect the development of their family business, and he did not know where this girl was hiding.
"Uncle, I have something to tell you. My cousin seems to be very close to Gu Tanfeng, and their relationship is not ordinary. "Philip suddenly recalled what happened at the banquet and told Andre about it.
"You mean they're in a relationship? That's impossible. Gu Tanfeng is a married man, and with his status, how could he have anything to do with Daphne? "Andre refused to believe Philip's words.
As a father, he knew very well what kind of personality his daughter had. Although Daphne seemed to have grown up in reverse, his daughter would never mess with a married man. On this matter, Andre trusted his daughter very much.
"Uncle, I saw it with my own eyes, or else I wouldn't say such things. Daphne is a girl after all. What if Gu Tanfeng seduced her on purpose? How would she know he is married? "Philip's words made sense to Andre.
"Then what should we do? If that's the case, the Mu Family will know about it, and the marriage will be over. "Andre was a little flustered after hearing Philip's words. Daphne was his bargaining chip. If he lost this bargaining chip, he didn't know how long he would have to work to reach the height he wanted.
He really didn't know what height An De Lie wanted to reach in order to be satisfied. He was already at the top of the upper class, but he still wanted to use his daughter to reach the height he wanted. Being born into a wealthy family wasn't necessarily a happy thing. Even his marriage had to be sacrificed for his family business. What happiness was there to speak of? He clearly knew it was a pit of fire, but he still wanted his daughter to jump into it. He really felt sad for Daphne to be born into such a family.
"Don't worry, leave these matters to me," Philip comforted his uncle. "Okay, you have to find that stupid girl as soon as possible. You can't be soft-hearted this time. You have to lock her up. Nothing can go wrong." Andre made up his mind this time. Once Daphne was found, she would definitely be arrested.
"Okay, don't worry. Leave it to me, "Philip said confidently. "Gu Tanfeng, if you're the one who lied to my cousin this time, I'll make sure you suffer the consequences," Phillip said through gritted teeth.
"Did you make all these dishes yourself?" When Ling Zixuan got home from work that night, he saw that the dining table was filled with his favorite Chinese food. He asked Daphne in surprise. He couldn't believe his eyes.
"Why are you looking at me like that? Am I not good enough? Do you have so little confidence in me? "Daphne asked Ling Zixuan. "Of course not! I just think you're really amazing. You made Chinese dishes so well in such a short time. It's incredible. "Ling Zixuan looked at Daphne with admiration.
"That's because these are all dishes that the man I love the most likes to eat. I have to learn them. I want to make him eat his favorite dishes late every day, and they'll be made by me. He likes to eat my cooking the most." Daphne had already lowered her head in embarrassment, not daring to look at Ling Zixuan's scorching gaze.
If you wanted to capture a man's heart, you had to capture a man's stomach first. It seemed that Ling Zixuan really couldn't escape from Daphne's grasp. He was now completely mesmerized by Daphne.
For the first time, Ling Zixuan felt what home was, and it felt really good. Ling Zixuan felt that this was the feeling he wanted.
"There's no need to look at me like that. Hurry up and wash your hands for dinner, or the food will get cold," Daphne said to Ling Zixuan, breaking the awkward situation between them.
"Okay. Ling Zixuan just realized it and hurried to wash his hands." At this moment, Daphne also served the soup, and a thought suddenly occurred to Ling Zixuan. It was a thought that he had been very resistant to before, and that was that Ling Zixuan suddenly wanted to get married. He really yearned for this kind of life.
"What are you thinking about? Is there something on your mind? Why are you smuggling so much tonight? You seem absent-minded. "Daphne asked Ling Zixuan with concern.
"No, I'm just daydreaming happily. I'm just daydreaming happily. If I had a wife like you, I would be happy for the rest of my life. "Ling Zixuan unknowingly said what was on his mind.
Daphne was very touched, but she restrained the true feelings in her heart. She wanted to wait until Ling Zixuan had his fill before telling him about her current situation. She hoped that Ling Zixuan would be able to help her through this difficult time.
"Hurry up and eat. Try my cooking and see if it suits your taste." Daphne hurriedly took the cutlery for Ling Zixuan. "Okay. Let's eat together. " Ling Zixuan saw that the chef didn't seem to want to eat, and he wanted Daphne to eat with him. That would make it feel like home!
Although Daphne didn't have an appetite, she didn't spoil Ling Zixuan's mood. She accompanied him for dinner. Ling Zixuan could still see that there was something wrong with Daphne. She seemed to have a lot on her mind. It was very worrisome.
After Ling Zixuan finished eating, Daphne was in a hurry to clean up the dishes. However, Ling Zixuan pulled her back into his arms. "Don't clean up. Tell me what happened." Ling Zixuan didn't want to wait for Daphne to tell him herself. Now he really wanted to know why Daphne didn't want to go home. This was something that Ling Zixuan was very worried about. But Ling Zixuan couldn't figure it out after thinking for a few days. He could only let Daphne tell him what happened in person.
Hearing Ling Zixuan's question and the concerned look in his eyes. Daphne's eyes were already overflowing with tears. "Don't cry, okay? You know I'll be very sad if you're like this. Tell me what happened, so I can help you!" Ling Zixuan asked Daphne anxiously.
"You can't help me. No one can help me." Daphne was already choking with sobs. "How do you know I can't help you if you don't tell me? Tell me quickly, okay? " Ling Zixuan looked at Daphne crying so sadly, and he was even more anxious and wanted to know what happened to Daphne.
