GUNPOWDER

CHAPTER 201 - ARE YOU SURE YOU WANT TO HIT IT OFF

Guan Zi didn't forget that she and Shao Weiren were subordinates. After bowing respectfully, she left without turning back.

Shao Weiren looked at Guan Zi's leaving figure. He wanted to ask her why, but he asked himself why. It was Guan Zi, the woman who firmly moved away from his manor.

The night was as cool as water, and even in Jiangnan, the night wind was still chilly. Guan Zi casually drove back to her apartment.

The house was warm and heated. Guan Zi leaned against the windowsill and sat on the floor. She hugged her knees and put her head on them. Tears flowed from the corners of her eyes.

She had already paid attention to Shao Weiren's schedule. After the annual meeting, the group started their vacation, so Shao Weiren had booked a plane ticket to the north. She didn't know what he was going to do in the heart of the country, but she wanted him to be away so no one would listen even if she wanted to.

Guan Zi wanted to cry out loud, but she didn't dare. The doctor had told her not to get too emotional.

Guan Lu and Shao Weiren also danced, and they were much better looking than Guan Zi. Guan Lu finally felt a bit happier, but Shao Weiren was very tired. At night, he rejected Guan Lu's invitation and drove to Jin Ye Garden alone.

Lin Ziyun didn't know until she woke up in the morning that her son had returned.

At breakfast, Lin Ziyun covered Shao Weiren with peanut butter and asked softly, Weiren, what happened? Why did you suddenly come back?

Mom, I came back to check on you. In front of his mother, Shao Weiren was like a child.

Have you booked your plane ticket? Your grandma called me and told me to tell you to go home early and to bring back a granddaughter-in-law. Although Lin Ziyun had separated from Commander Shao, she still maintained a good relationship with her mother-in-law.

It's not like you don't know your grandpa and dad's tempers. Otherwise, why didn't you live in the courtyard and come back to Jiangnan? Shao Weiren didn't understand it at all when this matter was brought up. Initially, because he loved his mother too much, he decided to come to Jiangnan and work hard for his career, so he didn't have any connections with his family.

I followed your father for more than twenty years to eat the Soybean Milk Soup Dumplings because I like to eat western style breakfast. I feel like I have to do something I really like, and I've told you before, your father is not to be blamed for this. Lin Ziyun said sincerely, But I think that child Guan Lu really likes northern culture. Her family isn't bad either. She really suits you well. I've been reading about her in the newspapers recently …

Shao Weiren muttered, Mom, I'll decide for myself.

Lin Ziyun thought back to the time when she followed her beloved man to the north regardless of the objections in her family. In the end, after twenty years, even if they loved each other, they still had to part.

When Shao Weiren first came out of his home, his grandmother wanted him to agree. Every year during the Spring Festival, as well as on his grandfather's birthday, he had to come home and stay for a few days. After all, he was still a descendant of Shao Family.

The Shao Family was a very respected surname in the circle that caused people to respect him. The smallest person in the current generation had Lin in the middle, which was a circle that no one was familiar with but had great influence in the military and political world. It was a mysterious place that no one knew about.

On the day before New Year's Eve, it was already night when Shao Weiren got off the plane. The airport was brightly lit, but the night was still as bright as ever.

He only brought a small suitcase with him, and inside it was a gift for his grandparents. Although the old man didn't lack anything, Shao Weiren knew that this was what he had promised.

The rice wine that was given to grandpa was Shaoxing rice wine. Shao Weiren always heard grandpa say that as long as he drank the rice wine, he would be able to win the battle in Shaoxing that year.

It was a fine Hangzhou silk for Grandma. Although she was over her age, she still wore a proper qipao for important occasions. Grandma was the most beloved girl in the family when facing Shao Weiren.

As soon as he stepped out of the security check, he saw Lin Qiao, one of his childhood friends, standing there and waving at him. Lin Qiao was dressed like a locomotive kid in leather clothes and pants.

Shao Weiren walked over and the two of them met. They hit each other's shoulders out of habit.

Board Director Dong, you can bear to come back from that paradise on earth? Brothers, I've missed you so much." Lin Qiao said with a smile.

Shao Weiren will definitely get together this time around. It has been almost a year since they last saw each other.

While carrying his suitcase, Shao Weiren said, I have to go back and put it away.

Lin Qiao glanced at him, then pointed to a black car parked not far away and said, "Don't you see your dad's secretary is waiting there? Hurry up and give the box to her and then take my car. Let me tell you, a new clubhouse has been opened. It's especially fun.

As expected, Shao Weiren noticed Secretary Li signalling to him. He walked over and said, Uncle Li, sorry for troubling you.

Secretary Li took the suitcase and repeatedly said, No trouble, no trouble at all.

Then, he and Lin Qiao walked to the most coquettish Ferrari.

But today was different. He didn't intend to bring Shao Weiren back home, and being able to bring his luggage back was already pretty good. He thought back to the Chief's words at that time, Xiao Li, go to the airport and see if that brat really came back. As long as someone showed up, he would be thankful. After all, returning to the city would mean that he had completed a huge task.

Shao Weiren also loved cars, but if he dared to drive such a gorgeous car on the streets, he would be locked up by his father in less than a night's time.

Nice car. Shao Weiren said two words and sat on the passenger seat.

As he expected, Lin Qiao threw the keys on top of him, then pulled him out of the passenger seat and muttered, My dad still hasn't recovered from the injury he gave me last time because of Maserati. You drive."

Shao Weiren started the car and said, My driver's license is still in the trunk.

Lin Qiao exploded instantly. His driver's license had already been confiscated by his father. They were driving without any license now, Shao Weiren, why are you blocking my way the moment you come back!?

With you here, what's there to be afraid of? Shao Weiren performed his best performance with a beautiful drift.

Lin Qiao said, Yes, I can come out, but I'll go straight to the confinement room. You punk, you went back to Jiangnan in a few days. Can I do it?

Shao Weiren's mouth was constantly curved upwards. With his old friend, he had always felt at ease. In this materialistic society, it was very precious to be able to retain such a simple and honest relationship.

Everyone was there when they entered the clubhouse. Shao Weiren and the others drank together, played cards, joked with each other, shared some of their experiences over the past two years and also discussed their views on the current news. It was already dawn when they left the clubhouse. Shao Weiren and the others went back to the courtyard and entered their own homes.

Shao Family opened for breakfast at 7 o'clock sharp. When Shao Weiren arrived home, his father had already finished eating and gone to work. His grandfather was playing Tai Chi in the courtyard, obviously waiting for him as well.

Grandfather. Shao Weiren stood in a very standard military posture.

After a full half an hour, Old Commander Shao finished playing tai Ji. He glanced at his grandson and gave a cold snort, indicating his agreement.

Shao Weiren immediately entered the house. He saw the back of a kind old lady in the kitchen, Grandma, I'm back.

My good grandson, you're finally back. The old woman looked at her granddaughter with an indescribably happy expression. What do you want to eat? Grandma wants them to cook for you.

Shao Weiren saw that his suitcase was still in the hallway. He immediately opened it and took out the silk and said, Grandma, I picked the material for you.

The old woman held it as if it were a treasure. My grandson is still the best to me.

Old Commander Shao, who was reading the newspaper at the side, looked over and snorted coldly.

Shao Weiren took out the Shaoxing rice wine and put it on the tea table. Then he took off the lid of one of the bottles and went upstairs to his bedroom to catch up on his sleep.

When Old Commander Shao saw that his grandson had left, he picked up the wine and sniffed it. He excitedly said, It's Shaoxing's smell. It's the same smell as before.

It wasn't easy for my grandson to come back, yet you still gave him a hard time. The madame looked at the silk in her hands and complained.

In the evening, Commander Shao got off work punctually in a very rare manner. The whole family sat together for a New Year's dinner, drank the Shaoxing Wine Shao Weiren brought back, and then watched the Spring Festival Gala together.

Shao Weiren stood alone in the bedroom window, looking at the bright moon hanging in the night sky. He suddenly thought of Guan Zi, she should be on her own during the Spring Festival, so he picked up his phone and wanted to call her a few times, but he eventually put it down. He remembered her indifference, her disregard for him, and how Si Wuwei had privately met up with her.

She was prepared to go to the hospital on the second day of the first month, which would allow her to rest for another five days. At that time, it would not affect her work, and she had already asked ahead of time, since there were already doctors on duty since the second day of the first month. There would definitely be very few people on duty that day, so she specially found a star hospital with the most advanced equipment.

Darling, Mommy has let you down. Guan Zi looked at the moon and spoke softly. She remembered that people once said that when the child left, she would become a star in the sky. That night, she must look at the night sky and find the star that belonged to her.

Two people thousands of miles apart, looking up at the same starry sky, missing each other.

Hidden beneath the secrets, it would be a vast and endless love that would never end.

On the second day of the first month, the New Year's atmosphere enveloped the area. The streets were decorated with lanterns, but there were no pedestrians. It was likely that they were reuniting with their seniors at home, and there were fewer taxis.

Guan Zi waited for a while before calling a car. She reported the name of the hospital.

Coming to the obstetrics and gynecology department, it was indeed deserted. Probably only she would choose to give birth on this day.

Since there was no need to line up, Guan Zi took the list and went to the operation room.

The doctor looked at Guan Zi's emaciated body, alone, and understood in his heart. However, when facing such a girl, all he felt was pity and love, and now that the sun is going to set, there are many girls who don't know their place, so they can tell at a glance if they have seen too much. The doctor asked gently, Miss, are you sure you want to break it? From the B-ultrasound, the child is developing very well.

CHAPTER 202 - SHE COULDN'T BEAR TO LEAVE

Guan Zi silently bit her lips as she felt the ice-cold temperature of the platform beneath her, and the coldness penetrated into her heart.

The doctor sighed. She could tell that Guan Zi was a stubborn and patient person, and even the father of her child would not know of her existence. She continued to advise, People have to communicate with other people, so how can he understand if you don't tell him? The child is innocent.

Her hands were clenched into a fist, and the intimate relationship between Shao Weiren and Guan Lu could still be seen. She told herself in her heart that Shao Weiren loved Guan Lu, and Norway was just an illusion on her part; they were even trying to get her to give up the position of Yovwei Manor to Guan Lu.

The doctor waited for a while, but Guan Zi still nodded her head firmly. She didn't say anything, so the doctor started to prepare for the drainage.

When the cold instrument entered Guan Zi's body, she felt a slight pain. She closed her eyes and found that her mind was filled with images of the little girl happily running on the grass. She suddenly opened her eyes.

No, she said suddenly.

The doctor immediately stopped what he was doing and carefully took it out. Miss, is there something wrong? It may hurt a little, but it will be all right after a while.

Guan Zi sat up and caressed her lower abdomen. She realized that she still couldn't make the decision to beat him up. She couldn't bear to let go of him, she really couldn't.

Guan Zi was helpless now, she did not know what to do, this feeling was that after she became the Director of Management, her business talent was brought into play, good results were achieved, and she no longer felt it, she became confident, believed in her own ability, and could make her future life beautiful, but now, she was at a loss, unable to see the direction.

The one who treasured life the most was the doctor.

Miss, you should go back and think about it. I think you are reluctant to part with this child. This is also fate between you and the child. It's best not to give up so easily. With that, the doctor helped Guan Zi off the operating table. After comforting her for a while, Guan Zi's eyes finally focused.

She slowly walked out of the operation room and lovingly caressed her belly. Yes, it was her and Shao Weiren's fault. The child was so beautiful. She shouldn't have made such a hasty decision and missed out on a beautiful life.

Guan Zi didn't know what to do. She had to go back to the apartment and think about it carefully. And her Zhongqian. She had to do her best to plan everything out for the future.

Hearing the sound of a little boy crying, Guan Zi suddenly raised her head and found that not far from the corridor, Si Wuwei was holding a little boy in his arms.

It was Zhongqian! It was Zhongqian.

Si Wuwei also saw Guan Zi. He took a glance in the direction Guan Zi was coming from. It was the obstetrics and gynecology department.

Guan Zi didn't expect to meet Zhongqian here. She rushed over and looked at Zhongqian's cute face with a surprised smile.

As a Young Mistress in Si Family, Zhao Mann was enjoying the flattery from her relatives and friends. Naturally, she would not come out to accompany Zhongqian to take preventive measures. Si Wuwei was extremely good to Zhongqian, so he would personally take care of everything.

Blood ties were indeed so magical. When Zhongqian saw Guan Zi, he stopped crying and grinned.

Guan Zi's thoughts were all on Zhongqian. She stretched out her hand and asked, Can I hug him?

Si Wuwei instructed the two bodyguards behind him to leave as he handed Zhongqian to Guan Zi.

Zhongqian had grown up a lot, and he had also gained a lot of weight. Guan Zi hugged him tightly and touched her darling son's little face.

Ah, ah! Zhongqian let out two simple syllables and clapped his hands together. He was very happy.

Guan Zi was extremely happy. This was the first time she heard Zhongqian speak, and his childish voice sounded so nice.

Si Wuwei knew that as long as Zhongqian was around, Guan Zi would be very polite to him. He asked, Guan Zi, why are you in the hospital?

Guan Zi then thought of the obstetrics and gynecology department, she casually said, My dysmenorrhea has not been cured yet. My colleague introduced a doctor here who was skilled in medicine, so I came over to see him.

He saw Guan Zi playing with Zhongqian for so long that her arms must be sore. He said, Put the child in the cart, I just saw a coffee shop opening not far from the hospital, we can go there for a while.

With Zhongqian around, Guan Zi wouldn't refuse. She nodded, but insisted on pushing the children's cart. Si Wuwei walked beside her with a smile.

Today, Xu Sen was on duty at Wan Shao. Just as he was thinking that everything was normal, his phone rang. It was a message from the hired detective.

After receiving the email, Xu Sen looked at the photo with his eyes wide open in shock. He knew that he had to report Shao Weiren as soon as possible, but the result he said was most likely an unheard-of storm.

Trembling, Xu Sen dialed Shao Weiren's number and carefully considered each word.

Ye Zichen didn't think that the call would connect so quickly, Shao Weiren's cold voice sounded out.

Xu Sen, what's the matter?

Board Director Dong, it's like this. Xu Sen wiped off the cold sweat on his forehead. Shao Weiren's questioning voice could already be heard. He knew that the Boss hated stuttering, so he made up his mind and quickly said, Chief Inspector Guan came out of the hospital this morning.

As expected, the moment he finished, he heard Shao Weiren ask loudly, What did you say!?

Xu Sen's heart was trembling. He repeated, Chief Inspector Guan went to the obstetrics and gynecology department of the hospital. She went to do abortion. The rest is still under investigation.

What's the use of investigating?! Shao Weiren kicked the chair beside him, causing a huge impact sound. He said, Order a plane ticket for me immediately and report to me at any time.

He thought bitterly, last time he saw Guan Zi vomiting in the Western Restaurant, she was wearing flat shoes at the annual party, and he never saw her drink again. All of this connected together, and it all meant one thing, Guan Zi was pregnant, and the one she was carrying was his child, Shao Weiren.

Guan Zi held Zhongqian in her arms as she played with him. The maternal radiance enveloped her body.

The sunlight shined in. Si Wuwei suddenly felt warm like spring. He missed the past.

The aroma of coffee rose in the air.

Your favorite latte, two servings of milk, no sugar. Si Wuwei said gently to Guan Zi.

Looking at the coffee on the table and the delicate bone china cup filled with the thick liquid, Guan Zi thought of her situation and said blandly, It was once my favorite cup. You still don't know that I have stopped drinking coffee.

It's not just the coffee that's gone, it's what I once liked about you. It's gone.

Si Wuwei's expression slightly changed. Naturally, he understood the meaning behind Guan Zi's words. He explained, Guan Zi, you have to believe that I love you. I'm just …

It's just a mistake all men make, isn't it? Guan Zi said coldly with a mocking smile on her lips, Si Wuwei, please don't say you love me after doing that kind of thing with my best friend in bed. I feel really disgusted.

Guan Zi hated irresponsible men the most. It was the same with her father and mother when she was young. Her mother had been depressed all her life and had only fallen in love with the wrong person. Guan Zi had already corrected her mistake.

Guan Zi, I have my own difficulties. If I agree to your request, I will do so.

Sure, then give Zhongqian to me. Guan Zi immediately said that if Zhongqian could really return to her side, she would learn to forgive him.

Si Wuwei said awkwardly: Guan Zi, this is the only thing I can't do. Don't you want to take back your grandpa's wine cellar? I'll immediately call you from my private account for 1.5 million, and you can buy it back as long as you like.

Guan Zi sneered, Is it because of Zhao Mann? That's why you're not willing to return Zhongqian to me. Don't tell me that Zhao Mann won't have children, so she needs Zhongqian as a foil."

Si Wuwei had some unspeakable difficulties in his heart, but no matter how much he loved Guan Zi, he could not ignore Si Ming. He thought that one day, there would definitely be a way to make both of them work, but not now.

If that was the case, she could only make use of every minute and every second to get along with Zhongqian. Si Ming had accumulated wealth for hundreds of years and had a deep foundation, so it was not easy to defeat them. Unless a special scandal broke, they could be taken down in one fell swoop, but with her understanding of Si Wuwei, her actions and meticulousness, it would not be easy to find a loophole.

Zhongqian suddenly stretched out his hand and slapped Guan Zi's face. Her soft and smooth skin felt warm to the touch. Guan Zi immediately hugged her left hand and kissed right away.

Si Wuwei's phone rang. He looked at it, then pressed it down. Soon, it rang again.

Guan Zi knew it was Zhao Mann. That woman had a vicious heart, and now she was in a advantageous position, so she had no choice but to let Zhao Mann have her way.

Si Wuwei knew that if he didn't pick up the phone, Zhao Mann would definitely fly into a rage. He didn't know what she would do if she didn't pick up the phone.

Guan Zi knew that she was still weak at the moment. After meeting with Zhongqian today, she was even more determined to defeat her Si Ming, so she could only kiss Zhongqian one last time. After that, she reluctantly put him in the children's car until she couldn't see Si Wuwei's car before getting up and leaving.

Shao Weiren didn't even wear his jacket. He casually drove a Volvo from his garage and sped towards the airport, catching the closest flight back.

Xu Sen had already investigated everything clearly. From the time Guan Zi did the inspection for the first time, to when she left the operation room today, and even to the matter of her meeting with Si Wuwei afterwards, everything was clear to him.

Looking at the complicated situation, Xu Sen couldn't help but sweat. Luckily, electronic products couldn't be used on the plane, otherwise, Shao Weiren's anger would have ignited the plane.

Wu himself drove and waited outside the airport. Shao Weiren didn't have a single piece of luggage, he only had a woolen sweater on. It must be very cold to be so thin in the north.

Shao Weiren walked away with big steps. He was so angry that he wanted to see Guan Zi immediately, so he couldn't wait for even a minute.

CHAPTER 203 - I RECKON THE CHILD IS GONE

Board Director Dong … Xu Sen shouted.

Speak. Shao Weiren threw out a word, directly took the car keys and went into the driver's seat.

Xu Sen tied up his seat belt with all his might while reporting to Shao Weiren, Board Director Dong, look at the time when Chief Inspector Guan went in and out of the operation room. I think the child is, is gone.

Shao Weiren braked and the car stopped by the roadside, What did you say!? In fact, he heard it clearly, the child was gone, he couldn't believe it, his child was gone, Guan Zi, you heartless woman.

They had returned to the city and Xu Sen immediately got out of the car. He knew that this matter was no longer under his jurisdiction.

After thinking for a long time, Shao Weiren started the car and drove away like the Golden Age Courtyard. No matter what, he had to ask Guan Zi personally why she did this.

Xu Sen had already left the keys to Guan Zi's apartment in the car, but when Shao Weiren arrived at the 16th floor and saw the password on the door, his anger flared up even more.

He started knocking on the door. The knocking was clear in the dead of night.

After Guan Zi heard that, she woke up in a daze. When she saw that the person on the screen was Shao Weiren, she instantly lost all sleepiness.

Shao Weiren was obviously impatient. He called Guan Zi, and the phone on the tea table immediately started to sing. Guan Zi had no choice but to pick it up.

Board Director Dong, what can I do for you this late? Guan Zi spoke in a cold and businesslike tone.

Shao Weiren snorted and said, Guan Zi, before I find someone to tear down your door, you better open the door for me. After saying that, he hung up the phone.

She could only walk over to open the door, but she didn't think that it would be because of the matter with the child. After all, she had done her secret work well, but she had neglected to notice that there was nothing in the world that Shao Weiren couldn't find out just because he wanted to know.

As soon as he opened the door, a cold wind blew in.

Shao Weiren walked in forcefully and slammed the door shut. At the same time, he reached out his hand to bring Guan Zi back to the bedroom and pressed her fiercely on the bed.

What are you doing? Let Shao Weiren go. Guan Zi sensed danger and struggled.

Shao Weiren's usually cold eyes were burning with a raging fire as it engulfed Guan Zi.

His wide palm, which still brought along the cold air, reached into his pajamas and stroked Guan Zi's flat belly. Shao Weiren felt the warmth on his palm and inch by inch, it corroded Guan Zi's skin.

Shao Weiren, let's talk properly. Guan Zi's and Shao Weiren's eyes met. She thought that she had never done anything to let him down, so her eyes were clear.

Shao Weiren pulled up the corner of his mouth and sneered mockingly, Guan Zi, it's really you. You actually dared to bear my child without telling me. Do you think anyone has the right to have my child? Pride in his nature did not allow others to discard what he cherished first. It could only be destroyed by him.

Guan Zi looked up at Shao Weiren in disbelief. She thought it was to ask why she beat up the child, but it was to tell her that she didn't have the right to carry Shao Weiren's child. Guan Zi was too naïve all of a sudden, thinking that he was different to her.

He opened his mouth again and stopped begging for mercy. Instead, he said coldly, Board Director Dong, I know this much, so as a dutiful subordinate, I've solved the problem. You don't need to worry.

His child actually didn't need him to worry, thinking about the photo inside Xu Sen's iPad. Shao Weiren was cold like the sun, right, in the corridor of the hospital, in the cozy coffee house, Si Wuwei was always by her side. Could it be that Zhongqian was her child, that she could love him that much and then abandon his as well?

It was the first time in history that Shao Weiren felt heartache. His life had always been smooth sailing, his exceptional intelligence, and his tenacious perseverance had made him a success today. He had never failed in his battles in history, but at the end of the day, his failure came.

Guan Zi, I noticed that your heart is cold, or you don't have any heart at all. Shao Weiren said one word at a time, and his voice came out from his teeth.

Board Director Dong, you don't have the right to say that to me. Whether I have the heart has nothing to do with you. You just need to know that Guan Lu has the heart. Guan Zi would always live under the shadow of Guan Lu. Even though she was more knowledgeable, more outstanding, and more beautiful than Guan Lu, the inferiority complex had been lingering in her heart ever since she entered the Guan Family.

Shao Weiren smiled coldly and leaned closer. His warm breath was on Guan Zi's nose and they could hear each other's breathing, Of course Guan Lu did it on purpose. You don't need to remind her.

Guan Zi did not back down at all, It's a good night and a short one. Board Director Dong should go find Miss Guan Lu. With your strength, it's naturally easy for you to have a child.

Shao Weiren, who was always fighting over a woman, snorted coldly as he pushed himself into another woman's arms. He said harshly, How could I let my woman have a child without knowing why? Of course we have to get married properly.

As a matter of fact, the scar in Guan Zi's heart was torn open with blood. Shao Weiren always knew where the weakness of others lay.

Guan Zi could no longer continue to pretend. She tried her best to resist, but Shao Weiren held her down and did not move at all.

What are you trying to do!? Guan Zi shouted hysterically.

Yeah, what was he going to do? He clearly came here to denounce Guan Zi, but he didn't know why he said it in other areas. However, when he saw Guan Zi's pain, he did feel the pleasure of revenge from the bottom of his heart. He felt his heart ache, so he wanted to make her hurt even more.

The two of them glared at each other. Guan Zi's eyes flashed with a hint of broken starlight, but Shao Weiren didn't catch the deeper meaning within.

It was rare for him to encounter something he couldn't control, but for Guan Zi to appear in his life was originally planned, but his heart had already deviated. Shao Weiren suddenly stood up and looked down at Guan Zi with a cold gaze.

Then, he turned around and left the bedroom. Guan Zi heard a fierce collision outside and knew that Shao Weiren had broken all the decorative ceramics. The sound of the door closing was earth-shattering.

The two of them were protecting their hearts and hurting each other.

His condition was excellent, so naturally many women came to deliver him. But he had always been a clean person, even if he wanted to, he would only stay in the hotel, and since two years ago, he had been more disinterested since the night with Guan Zi, until Guan Zi entered the Yovwei Manor, he was strict with his work, if not he thought, how could he not make enough insurance, and it was not that he did not think Guan Zi would become pregnant, he even had the thought of having a child as soon as he could, but it was true, it was true, but in the blink of an eye, he disappeared again.

Without turning on the lights, Guan Zi's eyes were wide open in the pitch black night. She couldn't ignore the pain in her heart, it turned out that when she was skiing in Norway, her heart had already betrayed her, and love came so suddenly. Thinking back to when Si Wuwei and Zhao Mann were in the same bed, she was only angry and didn't feel any pain, but hearing Shao Weiren's words, her blood froze and time stopped.

Shao Weiren returned to the north that day and continued to eat, drink, and have fun with his brothers and friends. There seemed to be nothing abnormal about it, only the occasional sudden silence.

Guan Zi forced herself not to feel the real thoughts in her mind. She started to recall the knowledge related to stock trading, immersing herself in the K chart every day. But the night before she went to work, she was still rehearsing the scene of meeting Shao Weiren in her mind.

Guan Zi woke up early in the morning after a sleepless night. She had always been good at hiding her feelings, and since she had already decided to hide the secret in her heart, she wouldn't reveal it to anyone.

Guan Zi, who appeared in the office, was brimming with energy. Her exquisite makeup made her look full of energy, and her well-cut and conservative professional attire showed off her swift and decisive demeanor.

Guan Zi thought about it for a while. Money was undoubtedly very important in this society, and she wanted to do more projects in the short span of three months. At the same time, she also wanted to start selling stocks.

The new year, it was all new weather.

Qiao Xia appeared in Guan Zi's office along with the snacks she had brought back from Chengdu.

Guan Zi, I need to tell you a very bad news. Qiao Xia's expression was heavy as she spoke in a serious tone.

Guan Zi flipped through the documents as she asked, What is it?

Our Boss has a new secretary.

Right.

Aren't you going to ask who it is?

Who is it?

Forget it, you should go take a look during the meeting. Don't be too surprised when you see Guan Lu. I'm going back to pack up. I think I'll have to resign again.

Guan Lu had come to the Wan Shao to be her secretary, while she, the executive director of Guan's, had come here to be her secretary. Guan Zi shook her head helplessly, it seemed that the Guan's was really going to start swaying in the wind and rain, she just felt heartache for her grandfather.

The high-level meeting was scheduled for 10 o'clock. When Guan Zi went up, she saw Guan Lu sitting in the position of the first secretary. Shao Weiren was standing beside her. The two of them seemed to be discussing something and were very close.

Guan Zi's footsteps paused as she watched Guan Lu's intimate lips slide across Shao Weiren's side face. She lowered her head slightly and pretended not to see it as she quickly walked towards the meeting room.

Thinking of her mother, she finally felt a trace of warmth in her heart. It turned out that the cold-blooded and heartless man would become sentimental when he met her true love. Shao Weiren actually gave such an important position to Guan Lu, just for the sake of the two of them being together day and night, not being separated for even a minute.

Guan Zi thought silently, perhaps this is the magic of fate.

When the director was all present, Guan Lu came with a secretary to deliver the documents. When it was Guan Zi's turn, she picked up the documents and threw them in front of Guan Zi.

CHAPTER 204 - IF YOU LOSE A RING YOU'IL BE COMPENSATED FOR IT

Guan Zi had been used to it ever since she was young, but she was still able to see the astonishment in everyone's eyes, maybe some sympathy. Guan Zi casually opened the document and started to read it seriously. She didn't want to be angry, as it would only hurt herself, so she had to treat herself better.

Guan Lu snorted coldly and left. The only reason she came to Wan Shao was because of Shao Weiren.

The conference was mainly to arrange for the deployment of the new year's work. The projects signed before the new year began to build one after another, and Wan Shao's prospects for this year were very good.

Shao Weiren did not even glance at Guan Zi during the whole meeting. In the dark of the meeting room, a pair of cold eyes was staring in Guan Zi's direction. Shao Weiren's heart instantly sank into the abyss.

After the meeting ended, Guan Zi hurried back to continue her work. Her workload was still the greatest, but she had to get off work on time and go back to research on the stock market, so she appeared to be extremely busy.

When the secretary came in to clean up the meeting room, she found a silver ring on the floor. It was an old style, with a wide ring with a complicated pattern engraved on it. The secretary couldn't even tell if it was a woman's ring or a man's ring.

Miss Guan, there's a ring here. I wonder which director dropped it. Currently, people with even the slightest bit of color was trying to curry favor with Guan Lu. After all, the reports said that Guan Lu was Wan Shao's future BOSS wife.

Guan Lu felt that the ring looked familiar. She recalled that Guan Zi once wore this ring. The old silver ring was not worth a single cent.

However, since it was Guan Zi's ring, she would definitely come back to look for it. Guan Lu raised her eyebrows, imagining Guan Zi's anxious look. Guan Lu had always hated Guan Zi, and since Guan Zi's appearance had caused her to lose her grandfather's favor at the Guan Family, she would not let Guan Zi off easily.

When Guan Zi returned to her office, she suddenly felt something slip from her neck. She lowered her head and picked up a silver chain from the ground. The necklace that she wore on her ring had been broken.

She remembered that when she got back to the office, she didn't hear the ring fall to the ground, so when she didn't find the office, Guan Zi followed the route she took today and searched inch by inch until she finally arrived at the door of the conference room.

She was sure the ring had been there at the beginning of the meeting, so it could only have been in the conference room. She crouched under her seat and searched carefully.

Seeing Guan Zi looking like she was looking for something, Guan Lu smiled in schadenfreude. She pulled a sister and intentionally walked past the meeting room, saying in a loud voice, "Xiao Min, I just found a silver ring in the meeting room. It looked very old-fashioned, but I don't know who was so untasteful.

Xiao Min agreed, Throw it away. It definitely isn't General Manager Shao's. They are all successful people with a salary of one million yuan a year. They all wear platinum.

Guan Lu laughed very loudly. Her laughter was like the tinkling of silver bells.

Guan Zi heard it. That ring was hers, the trash can? She immediately found the trash can in the conference room and started rummaging through it. It was full of paper cups with coffee on the outside. She flipped the trash can upside down, but she couldn't find the ring.

She tried hard to recall where else she might have thrown the ring. Suddenly, she stood up, it must have been done by Guan Lu. Guan Lu must have recognized that the ring was hers, so she intentionally went to Guan Lu to get it back.

Guan Zi never got angry at work, but today she ignored it. The wind from her walk blew her hair out of her ears, the only thing her mother had left for her.

Guan Zi found Guan Lu at the secretary's office. She walked up to Guan Lu and grabbed her by the shoulder, asking loudly, Where did you put the ring!? Guan Lu, explain it clearly.

Guan Lu looked at Guan Zi in shock. She had never felt wronged before, so naturally, she was unhappy that she was being suppressed like this. However, she had forgotten to resist.

It took a while before she regained consciousness. Guan Lu instinctively responded and said, Guan Zi, let me go.

Let me ask you again, where is my ring! Guan Zi shouted hysterically. She was about to die from anxiety.

Guan Zi was still holding onto Guan Lu tightly even as her colleagues from all around came up to support her.

This was what Shao Weiren saw the moment he entered the room. He went up to Guan Zi and carried her in his arms. He asked coldly, What's going on? Sound can freeze time.

Guan Lu finally broke free from Guan Zi's control and coughed non-stop.

Guan Zi was so angry that her fingers were trembling. She pointed at Guan Lu and said to Shao Weiren, Ask her why she wants my ring.

Ring? Shao Weiren had never seen Guan Zi wear any kind of ring.

Guan Lu, who had finally calmed down, immediately stuck to Shao Weiren and said, Brother Ren, Guan Zi is a crazy woman. Today, I found an old and broken silver ring in the meeting room and threw it away, but she insisted on asking me for it. I didn't know that the ring was hers. Guan Lu was the first to complain.

Guan Zi was immersed in her grief. How could she be so useless? She actually lost the one and only memento her mother left her. She didn't open her mouth to argue, all she wanted now was to find the ring.

Xu Sen led the others out of Guan Lu's office and closed the door.

Shao Weiren looked at Guan Zi, who had her head lowered. He said lightly, Prepare to apologize to Guan Lu. As the director, you dare to beat someone up in public. Guan Zi, are you from primitive society?

Guan Zi slowly raised her head. She looked at Shao Weiren, who was standing beside Guan Lu, and said, You still haven't figured out the truth. Why are you asking me to apologize to her?

This was the first time Shao Weiren saw Guan Zi's brilliance. He stood tall and straight, lowered his head and looked at Guan Zi, and slowly said, It's fine if I lose one ring for you. It's just a silver ring, I can't even afford platinum one.

Losing one? Shao Weiren wanted to pay her with a ring on her behalf, and he even said it wasn't a silver ring. She tidied up her hair, and her tone didn't change as she regained her professional composure, No need, Board Director Dong. You're right, a silver ring is worthless, I'm the one who hit you, I'm sorry.

Guan Lu, I'm sorry.

She really didn't know how to face Shao Weiren who stood next to Guan Lu. She had promised herself that she wouldn't suffer any grievances, so when she left, she would rather stay away from Shao Weiren's world forever.

Guan Lu saw that Shao Weiren always scolded Guan Zi for protecting her. She smiled happily and said, Brother Ren …

Shao Weiren ignored her. He looked at Guan Zi's frail figure shrouded in sadness, as if she lost her beloved item.

Guan Zi was no longer in the mood to work. She carefully put away the ring's chain, gazed at the light of the sun in the air, and whispered, Mom, I'm sorry.

Tears flowed down her cheeks without warning. She quickly wiped them away with a tissue. She had said to be strong and stop crying.

Who would have thought that Guan Lu would actually come knocking on her door to cause trouble? Ignoring Guan Zi's obstruction, she stood in front of Guan Zi and said, Look at what you've done to the meeting room. Hurry up and clean it up.

Guan Zi pretended not to hear him and continued reading the documents.

Guan Lu raised her voice. She thought that Guan Zi was afraid of her, so she became even more proud. Guan Zi, don't you understand what I'm saying?

Closing the document, Guan Zi suddenly stood up. After looking into Guan Lu's eyes for a few seconds, Guan Zi decided to endure it patiently. After all, she wouldn't find a place with a better treatment than Wan Shao.

Guan Zi asked the secretary for a large garbage bag and went to the conference room. She collected the coffee cups and paper cups into the trash bag and cleaned the stains on the floor with a tissue.

When Shao Weiren passed by the meeting room, he saw Guan Zi's figure. He stopped by the door quietly and looked at her meticulously cleaning the meeting room. His heart was filled with pity, but when he thought of his child, he felt cold.

When Guan Zi finally got home from work, she took out the red wine she brought back from the wine cellar and poured it into her goblet. Under the warm yellow light, she still couldn't drink, but she was in a bad mood today.

The night scattered endlessly, the jewelry shop was dazzling in gold and jade.

It was said that diamonds were the favorite of women. As soon as Shao Weiren entered the door, the clerk went up and asked, Sir, what do you need?

The jewelry shop's employee had already mastered the Fiery Eyes of Truth and was able to tell that Shao Weiren was definitely rich.

Ring. Shao Weiren was concise and concise.

The shop assistant naturally brought him to the diamond ring area.

Shao Weiren gave Lili a cursory glance. It was the first time he had chosen a piece of jewelry.

This was the biggest jewelry store in the city. Shao Weiren's gaze stopped on a ring and cut diamonds like snow. He remembered that Guan Zi liked the pure white snow a lot. This ring.

Is mister asking to be married? This is a wedding ring, an everlasting star, snow diamond cutting technology, platinum hollow carving, full and round ring. The shop assistant did not spare any effort to explain.

Shao Weiren took out his card, Wrap it up.

The clerk went to get the tickets with a smile on her face.

The platinum diamond ring was enough to compensate for the silver ring.

Flashlights flashed. Shao Weiren had been photographed frequently recently, but today, he was captured by an unknown tabloid reporter.

When Shao Weiren went to work, he put the ring in the pocket of his suit, near where his heart was.

In the morning, Guan Zi was in charge of a project report, and Shao Weiren actually met with Guan Zi's Deputy Director.

Being entrusted with such a heavy responsibility, the Deputy Director explained the implementation of the project to Shao Weiren with exceptional seriousness.

The same thing happened for a few days. Other than the director level plenary meeting, Guan Zi did not appear in front of Shao Weiren again.

Shao Weiren sneered. What did he mean? Was he going to draw a clear line between them? Unfortunately, this place had Wan Shao, and was his group.

After picking up the call from Xu Sen, he said, Call Chief Inspector Guan up.

Xu Sen immediately answered, Board Director Dong, Chief Inspector Guan's schedule is to go out.

Going out? When are you coming back?

CHAPTER 205 - STEP ONE OF CHESS

Xu Sen looked at the timetable that Guan Zi reported and said while trembling in fear, Board Director Dong, Chief Inspector Guan has been out of doors for the past month.

A month. That's great. Guan Zi, you really do have some skills. Find out where she is now.

After checking, Xu Sen said, It's at the 21 project's construction site in the east suburbs.

Have the chauffeur wait for me downstairs. The afternoon meeting will be delayed until tomorrow morning. Shao Weiren grabbed his jacket and walked out.

Guan Zi was working in the office of her subordinate project site, handling group affairs remotely. Although this place was not as grand as the Wan Shao office, she was in a good mood and she no longer had to see Shao Weiren and Guan Lu.

Here, one could even drink the cooling sour plum soup. The employees of Wan Shao would only drink the expensive take-out iced coffee, but they would never know that the sour plum soup was the genuine summer cold drink.

The construction team leader had just received the call from Assistant Wu from headquarters and saw the figure on the cover page of the calendar. The executive director of Wan Shao, Shao Weiren, was actually at the construction site. Before he could leave in the morning, Big Boss came over again. He quickly went up to him and said, Hello, Board Director Dong.

Shao Weiren had always been a gentleman. He extended his hand to shake hands with the captain, Thank you for your hard work.

Shao Weiren put on a hard hat and was escorted by the captain to inspect the construction site.

The monitor came to the office and said to Guan Zi, Chief Inspector Guan, Board Director Dong is here.

After Guan Zi heard this, she blinked her eyes and thought for a while before saying, Impossible, this construction site is neither laying the foundation nor building it, why would Board Director Dong come here?

The supervisor thought Guan Zi's words were reasonable. But Director, I saw it with my own eyes. It's as handsome as the calendar.

Guan Zi looked at the little girl in front of her and sighed secretly. As expected, the young girls would feel dizzy when they see the handsome one, so she said slowly, There have been a lot of fraud cases recently, so we have to be on high alert. This Greater Thousand World, vast and endless people, it's not impossible for the two of us to look alike.

She didn't believe that Shao Weiren would come here for no reason even if he was beaten to death. How could that pervert with a serious germaphobe come to such a dirty construction site?

Shao Weiren stood outside the office. He signaled the captain not to speak and listened quietly to what Guan Zi had to say. When Guan Zi was about to leave, he walked in leisurely.

Then Chief Inspector Guan, look at how similar I look.

Guan Zi could tell from the voice that it was Shao Weiren. His voice was light and the ending tone was slightly raised.

It really was him. What was he here for? After Guan Zi had recovered from her shock, she raised her head and said with a smile, Hello, Board Director Dong.

Chief Inspector Guan personally came to the construction site to supervise. As a boss, it's good for me to work so hard for her. Shao Weiren glanced around. It didn't look good on the outside, but it was neatly arranged inside. The air conditioning wasn't as good as the Wan Shao, but the temperature was more suitable.

It was late afternoon, and the sun was shining so brightly in the sky that it was hard to open one's eyes.

Guan Zi couldn't see the expression on Shao Weiren's face, but she could hear anger in his voice. She really didn't understand what he was thinking, but he insisted on angering her even after she had retreated.

Shao Weiren's gaze fell on the Sour Plum Soup. The purple soup sparkled under the sunlight.

When the construction team leader saw this, he immediately smiled and said, Board Director Dong, sour plum soup is a unique skill of our chef at the construction site. Everyone who has tasted it praises it endlessly. Can I get a bowl for you?

Shao Weiren tilted his head slightly, indicating that he could. The captain immediately called for someone to do it.

After the sour plum soup was delivered, Shao Weiren told everyone to leave the office, I have a meeting with Chief Inspector Guan.

Yes, yes, yes … The captain and the others left with smiles on their faces.

Shao Weiren Si sat at Guan Zi's seat without any hesitation. That wooden chair was the best chair here and Guan Zi had already carefully wiped it this morning.

Board Director Dong, what can I do for you? Guan Zi asked formally as she stood respectfully beside Shao Weiren.

Shao Weiren took out the ring box from his pocket and put it on the desk. Guan Lu lost your ring, this is your compensation.

Guan Zi looked at the ring and didn't move. She tried her best to suppress the peculiar feeling in her heart and said, No need, Board Director Dong. That's just a silver ring. Your ring is a platinum diamond ring, it's a few dozen times more expensive.

Shao Weiren frowned slightly. This was the first time he saw someone not accepting a gift from him. Naturally, he was unhappy, I can afford it.

Guan Zi bit her lower lip. This was her habitual action, proving that she was enduring something, Board Director Dong, Guan Lu lost the ring. She also lost the ring, so I don't think you have anything to do with this.

Shao Weiren stood up with a trace of a smile at the corner of his mouth. He bent down and stopped not more than a finger's width away from Guan Zi. He said, Guan Lu is my woman, so I will compensate her.

He didn't even spare a glance at Guan Zi as he leisurely walked away.

Standing there steadily, Guan Zi's mind kept replaying the words, my woman. Why did she feel so uncomfortable when Shao Weiren said it himself? The entire upper class knew that Guan Lu was his woman, and now he admitted it himself.

Guan Zi slowly picked up the ring box and opened it to see the Eternal Star inside. It was flowing with light and color, but it was not her silver ring.

In the future, she could sell it for money. Right now, she knew the importance of money more than anyone else.

Before he left, he clearly saw the loneliness and sadness in her eyes, but Shao Weiren still didn't walk out of the shock of losing a child. Every time he saw a child, he would think that if Guan Zi wasn't so heartless, his child would be born soon.

Returning to Wan Shao, Shao Weiren immediately gave the order to cancel Guan Zi's freedom to work outside.

The director level belonged to the management and was free to go to work, but because they were busy working, they could not finish the work they were working overtime. Even if they were free to go to work, it was rare for them to leave early.

After Xu Sen finished listening, he felt curious as to why Board Director Dong was always so special to Chief Inspector Guan. He really couldn't understand it, but there was always no problem with the execution.

Xu Sen called Guan Zi and tried to express Shao Weiren's thoughts in a euphemistic manner.

Guan Zi didn't appreciate the gesture at all, and her tone of voice changed drastically. All in all, it looks like Xia won't be going to the cinema to see the Transformer on Sunday.

Xu Sen was threatened. He tried his best to explain, Guan Zi, this is Board Director Dong's order. I must carry it out.

Alright, I understand. Guan Zi hung up the phone, closed the laptop and put it in her bag. She fiercely kicked the wooden table a few times to quell her anger.

The only reason Guan Lu came to Wan Shao was because of Shao Weiren. Originally, besides buying clothes, she didn't do anything else related to the job, and Xu Sen also didn't give her any important work to manage her documents. She didn't stick to Shao Weiren's words and tried to rope in her little sister to say bad things about Guan Zi.

Temporarily requiring a historical report to explain, Xu Sen found Guan Lu in the teahouse, close secretary, need 1032 folder.

Guan Lu was happily chatting with her little sister. She gave Xu Sen the key and told him to go and get it himself.

Why was there such a huge gap between Guan Zi and Guan Lu? Xu Sen shook his head and helplessly went to get it himself.

When Shao Weiren opened the folder, a silver ring fell out and rolled on the ground.

That day, Guan Lu put the ring in a random folder and then forgot about it.

The ring had obviously been there for a long time. The silver had a dull luster and Shao Weiren could feel that there was a pattern on it. If he wasn't mistaken, this was Guan Zi's ring.

After taking a few turns, he still ended up here. Perhaps it was fated.

Zhao Mann asked Guan Lu to go shopping.

The scheming Zhao Mann naturally knew that she wanted to have status in the Si Family, so she naturally had to befriend the noble ladies in the city. As the treasure of the Guan Family, Guan Lu was naturally the most important person to interact with, so she tried her best to get the information she needed from Guan Lu.

The two of them strolled around for a while, while the bodyguard behind them carried a big bag in his hand. The two of them sat in the coffee shop, drinking milk tea.

Guan Lu pretended to say, Oh, Mann, I haven't been happy at all with my Wan Shao recently.

Zhao Mann naturally agreed and asked with a smile, Lulu, why? Someone dares to provoke you even with Shao Weiren's protection?

Naturally, it was very enjoyable. Guan Lu slowly said, Isn't it because I can see our unlucky star Guan Zi everyday? That's why I'm in a bad mood.

Zhao Mann also hated Guan Zi to death, so she suggested, Just tell your family's Board Director Dong that he can fire Guan Zi. Guan Zi looks like she still has pity on him, so you have to be careful.

Guan Lu also wanted to quickly chase Guan Zi out of the Wan Shao, but she said doubtfully: But Brother Ren definitely doesn't like women interfering with his work, I don't want him to get angry.

Zhao Mann had already come up with a bad idea. She slowly guided Guan Lu as she chuckled and said, "When I meet Shao Weiren again, I will tell him these words of yours. I
