Night Fire Lingering

Chapter 183, let me tell you, my Zhizhi

"Gu Yanci, what's wrong?"

Wen Yan tilted her head to look at him, her eyes full of suspicion.

The man's brows were furrowed, his face was solemn, and his expression was inscrutable.

Wen Yan hesitated for a moment, then guessed, "Did coming to see Jiang Huaixu make you so uncomfortable? I'm sorry... I apologize to you."

She somewhat regretted making that request.

Putting herself in his shoes, she used to feel disgusted whenever she saw Wen Muzhi.

Gu Yanci ruffled Wen Yan's hair, trying to soften his tone, but his coldness still betrayed his true feelings.

He asked, "How did you and Jiang Huaixu meet?"

Jianghuai Preface is too much like Gu Jingzhou.

Except for his face, he looks just like Gu Jingzhou.

They have similar tastes in food, similar behavior, and similar personalities.

If all of this is just a coincidence, just a coincidence.

So why does that incense burner look so similar?

He even suspected it was the same one!

But if it's not a coincidence, then what is it?

Jiang Huaixu is the eldest son of the Jiang family. Although he is in poor health, he is still the family heir. There is no reason for him to deliberately imitate another person.

Wen Yan looked at Gu Yanci strangely, not understanding why he suddenly asked this question.

“She’s just a classmate. We go to the same school and met through club activities,” Wen Yan said disapprovingly. “Mr. Gu, are you suddenly planning to bring up old grievances?”

"Is this considered bringing up old grievances?"

"...It doesn't count."

Jiang Huaixu lives on the 28th floor.

Once inside the elevator, Wen Yan glanced at the 25th floor and asked Gu Yanci, "Are you going to see your mother?"

Gu Yanci pressed the button for the first floor directly.

dont see.

The bodyguard said that Nan Zhiyi was with Ji Chang, and he knew that Wen Yan didn't want to see Nan Zhiyi.

Gu Yanci didn't take Nan Zhiyi to heart, but instead gave Zhou Qifa information, telling him to investigate Jiang Huaixu.

Jiang Huaixu's whereabouts were difficult to find. That evening, Gu Yanci received another text message.

【Mr. Gu, I saw Yan at the hospital today. I heard that a senior from our school is hospitalized. Could you please ask him about his room number for me?】

The text message came from an unknown number, but Gu Yanci inexplicably guessed who it was.

Wen Yan was nestled on the sofa in the study, looking at her iPad, when Gu Yanci glanced at her.

Two seconds later, the woman seemed to sense something and looked up.

"Come here, I'll show you something." Gu Yanci beckoned.

"What..." He wasn't the type to surprise people, so Wen Yan walked over suspiciously.

Then I saw that text message without a signature or note.

“Nan Zhiyi?” Wen Yan blurted out.

Gu Yanci handed her his phone, his eyes seeming to say: Ask her.

Wen Yan withdrew her hand: "I won't ask! It would make me seem petty!"

Wen Yan's expression turned cold as she scoffed, "She's still pulling this stunt? Can't she keep her patience up?"

Gu Yanci couldn't help but chuckle, pulling her hand and drawing her into his arms so she could sit on his lap.

"Mrs. Gu, what do you think made her believe that this message could sow discord between us? Hmm?"

Gu Yanci's last word had a rising tone, full of danger.

Wen Yan was already feeling a bit guilty, and after he said that, her expression immediately became awkward.

Gu Yanci leaned closer to her and whispered with a hint of threat, "Speak up, my Zhizhi."

The word "mine" was emphasized with extra weight, carrying an endless tenderness.

Wen Yan couldn't help but back away, but the man grabbed her waist, so she could only lean her upper body backward, with nowhere left to retreat.

Just as their lips were almost touching, Wen Yan suddenly had a flash of inspiration and launched a desperate counterattack:

"Then why did she send you this text message? Why did she try to sow discord between us? Hmm? Mr. Gu, why don't you tell me too!"

Gu Yanci: "..."
