"Oh, is this the little brother you mentioned who was forcefully taken away by Mo Xuerong?" Old Master Gong asked with interest.
For a moment, Gu Wan was unable to figure out his intentions. Did he want to chat, or did he have other plans?
However, Gu Wan only smiled and nodded, "Yes, this is my younger brother — Gu Xiaotian."
Gu Wan briefly introduced Gu Xiaotian.
Gu Xiaotian nodded towards Old Master Gong, expressing his greetings. Seeing that, Old Master Gong was also beaming, unable to see his happiness or anger.
Through their conversation, Gu Xiaotian knew that this Old Master Gong was probably Gong Mohan's father.
Even though Gu Xiaotian had a faint smile on his face when he looked at Old Master Gong, and looked very benevolent, he still couldn't get close to him.
He didn't know why, but it was probably because when Old Master Gong spoke, there was a feeling that made Gu Xiaotian feel that it was very bad.
It had to be said that Gu Xiaotian's intuition was also quite sharp.
"Alright, Gu Wan. This is the protection I promised you for Gu Xiaotian. "Old Master Gong pointed to the bodyguard behind him.
After Gu Wan took a rough look, she sincerely expressed her gratitude to Old Master Gong, "Thank you."
Even if this was between them, Gu Wan's divorce and Old Master Gong's protection, this was more like a deal to a certain extent.
But after this time, Gu Wan could be considered to have understood one thing. No one should have helped anyone in the first place, and no one could definitely believe that they would be able to abide by the agreement they had made back then.
Mo Xuerong's reneging had taught Gu Wan a vivid lesson in her life. She would probably never forget it for the rest of her life.
Furthermore, a person of Old Master Gong's status did not need to abide by the agreement with a small fry like him, Gu Wan.
But he kept his promise.
Therefore, it was only right for him to thank her.
Old Master Gong raised his eyebrows, but did not say anything. He only glanced at Gu Xiaotian from the corner of his eyes.
Gu Wan didn't miss this look and suddenly understood.
She turned around to help Gu Xiaotian adjust his collar and said to Gu Xiaotian, "Sister suddenly remembered that I left my phone inside. Can you help me get it out?"
"Okay, sister, where did you put it?" Gu Xiaotian nodded.
He listened to Gu Wan's every word and didn't think about why Gu Wan suddenly forgot to take her phone.
"I don't know. You can look for it." Gu Wan smiled apologetically.
"Alright." Gu Xiaotian then left.
As he walked towards the direction of the room, a hint of seriousness surfaced on Gu Xiaotian's face.
Actually, he really wanted to eavesdrop on what his sister and the others would say.
But Gu Xiaotian wasn't expensive, he respected his sister's opinion. His sister was obviously sending him away just now.
In reality, Gu Xiaotian didn't care about what they said at all. He was only worried that this Old Master Gong would have some unfavorable request towards his sister.
However, elder sister, I think he knows, so he accepted his fate and went to the room to look for the phone that didn't exist.
After Gu Xiaotian left, Old Master Gong nodded his head in approval, "Girl, you're still smart."
Gu Wan could only shake her head in response to the compliment.
Actually, she also wanted to thank Old Master Gong for this. It just so happened that he didn't want Gu Xiaotian to hear their conversation. It wasn't because he was worried that he would leak the news or anything else, he just didn't want Gu Xiaotian to worry.
"Alright, since that's the case, I won't say anymore. Gu Xiaotian has been found, and I have fulfilled my promise to provide him with my protection." Old Master Gong squinted his eyes and spoke slowly.
The atmosphere of the conversation didn't seem like a negotiation. Instead, it felt like a heart-to-heart talk with a junior.
Gu Wan didn't say anything as she listened. She knew that now wasn't the time for her to express her attitude, so she only needed to quietly listen.
Sure enough …/p
Old Master Gong continued, "I also know that you guys have already divorced and signed the divorce agreement, so when can you move out? After all, it's not appropriate to live under the same roof after a divorce. It's also detrimental to your reputation as a girl. "
"Yes, Old Master Gong, what you said makes sense." Gu Wan couldn't help but applaud Old Master Gong in her heart.
He was indeed someone who was used to being in the business world. It wouldn't be an exaggeration to call him an old fox.
What he said was reasonable and reasonable, there was simply no room for anyone to refute him. In fact, he was even thinking for Gu Wan.
Fortunately, Gu Wan didn't plan to refute him.
"I was planning to leave, but the servant kept me, and I was just soft-hearted for a moment. I'm sorry, Old Master Gong, I'll bring Gu Xiaotian away once I find a suitable place to stay. "Gu Wan spoke the truth, not planning to hide anything at all.
After all, there was nothing to hide about this kind of thing. If Old Master Gong wanted to know, it would be very easy for him to find out.
Hearing this, Old Master Gong went silent for a while. He silently thought that this woman was indeed not an ordinary person.
Although every word was a promise, if one listened carefully, every word was a refusal.
Gu Wan said that the servant wanted to keep them, but in Old Master Gong's heart, there was no such thing as a servant. He did not place much importance on these subordinates.
What other suitable residence was there? This residence was even less of a problem.
Old Master Gong was a rich man, so he naturally couldn't understand the bitterness of not having money. He didn't think that it was that hard to find a place to stay.
In the end, he still wanted money?
Therefore, the elders of the Gong family also subconsciously classified Gu Wan as the same kind of woman as Mo Xuerong, greedy for money, and fawning on the rich and powerful.
They even thought that the reason Gu Wan and Gong Mohan were together was because they wanted his money.
Rich people were probably like this, always afraid that their money would be coveted by others.
If the elders of Gong Jia didn't realize this, they would think that it was fine to have desires, but they were afraid that they didn't have anything they wanted. This kind of person was truly difficult to deal with.
If Gu Wan only wanted money, then it would be very simple. Their Gong family did not lack money.
Thus, Old Master Gong laughed, "Girl, what you said is not a problem, I can help you solve it."
"Hmm?" Gu Wan was very surprised when she heard this. Could it be that the solution that Old Master Gong suggested was to use money to smash her again?
Then she, Gu Wan, had really been very lucky recently.
Old Master Gong misunderstood Gu Wan's meaning. He thought that Gu Wan did not believe that he could do it.
Thus, Old Master Gong laughed, as if he was very indulgent towards a junior, "Miss Gu, you don't have to be embarrassed, speak a price boldly."
Gu Wan shook her head. She did not want to talk about any great principles, nor did she want to say that feelings were priceless or anything else.
In the eyes of a merchant who valued profit over emotion, perhaps everything had a price, and everything could be bought and sold.
This had already become a deeply ingrained idea in their minds, and it was impossible to change it.
Gu Wan didn't try to change. In such a turbid environment, she just needed to maintain her original heart and not change herself. That was enough.
Old Master Gong was a little surprised when Gu Wan shook her head. Could it be that Gu Wan still did not understand what he had said?
Or was she pretending to be stupid, waiting for him to talk about the price?
If that was the case, then this woman could not be kept alive.
What harm was there in letting him talk about the price?
It was only right to spend some money to invite the God of Plagues away, so that she would not harm her own son, Gong Mohan.
"Our time is very precious. I believe that Miss Gu, you would rather stay with your family than with old men like us." After Old Master Gong finished speaking, he leaned back slightly on the back of the chair, indescribably lazy and domineering.
When Gu Wan heard this standard negotiation tone, she had no desire to speak.
Even if she did not say anything, Old Master Gong would continue.
"Since you do not want to say it, I will say it for you. If you think it is suitable, then agree. If not, we can discuss it again. It is very easy, there is no need to make it so complicated. "
Old Master Gong's fingers lightly tapped on the tea table, and when he spoke, he looked like he had a strategy in his grasp.
This was probably the bearing of a superior, the tone of a rich person.
"Old Master Gong, there's no need." Gu Wan felt that she needed to say something now, but it would be useless even if he said it.
Old Master Gong did not listen at all, as if it was the wind passing by his ears, he continued to offer a price.
"How about this?" Old Master Gong raised a finger and waved it towards Gu Wan.
Looking at Old Master Gong's familiar movements, Gu Wan immediately felt a headache, as if history was always shockingly similar.
It seemed like not long ago, Mo Xuerong had done the same thing to him, asking him to leave Gong Mohan.
But in the end, she did not succeed. Mo Xuerong had even sent her to prison, even though she had escaped now.
I'm sorry, Old Master Gong's actions made Gu Wan think like this.
But time and time again, one or two of them would throw money at him. Gu Wan couldn't help but reflect on herself, did she really look like such a greedy person?
Gu Wan lowered her head and did not say a word. Her heart was still mocking, why were these people always so vulgar?
Seeing Gu Wan's actions, Old Master Gong thought that he was dissatisfied, and laughed indifferently, "It's alright, then we'll add another ten million."
As the sound of his voice faded, Old Master Gong's fingers immediately formed a "VS" shape.
The old man's serious appearance, coupled with this cute action, made him look rather comical. If it wasn't for the fact that the situation was too serious, Gu Wan might have burst out laughing.
However, Gu Wan's expression was not much better now. She was trying her best to hold back her laughter, causing Old Master Gong to be confused.
Speaking of which, the Gong Family was indeed a big family.
He casually opened his mouth and said ten million, just to let a woman leave.
It had to be said that he had really put in a lot of effort.
However, it didn't seem to be enough.
