Contract Marriage: Billionaire and His Deaf Wife-Chapter 1079: With His Protection, She Fears Nothing (7)
Wei Changqing’s brow furrowed.
Does he not understand Jia Baomo better than she does?
In fact, she barely interacts with Jia Baomo, they have hardly exchanged a few words or met several times.
Jia Baomo often acts alone, without reporting to others in advance.
"It’s good he does his part, but—"
Wei Changqing’s criticism was interrupted by Gu Nuan.
"Mr. Jia’s problem isn’t about a lack of safety awareness, it’s because of an unexpected event. Otherwise, he would have met trouble long ago."
Wei Changqing detected some meaning in her words and asked, "Are you saying he’s been in action for a long time?"
"Yes, he’s been tracking that person for at least over a month." 𝕗𝗿𝕖𝐞𝐰𝗲𝕓𝐧𝕠𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝐨𝚖
"Who?"
"An executive from the company."
Everyone at the table was astonished, as it seemed Gu Nuan was always aware of the company’s internal and external movements despite not going outside.
Wei Changqing suddenly fell silent, as if he had nothing more to say.
Gu Nuan could indeed understand his mood at this moment. When he left, it wasn’t like he hadn’t arranged for someone to stay behind, the purpose was to prevent another incident like what happened to Xiao Yebai.
Unexpectedly, it happened again, occurring with Laoba, which is why he was so furious when Zhan Dapeng and the others reported the news to him.
Actually, he was angry with himself, but couldn’t express it.
His people were completely clueless about Laoba’s disappearance, yet Gu Nuan managed to figure it out.
"Sister-in-law." Wei Changqing spoke again this time, but with a hint of seeking Gu Nuan’s advice, indicating his complete submission, "Do you think I should lead people straight to that person’s house to find Laoba?"
"What do you think?" Gu Nuan asked him.
"I’m afraid of alerting the snake in the grass."
After all, her husband’s brothers are all exceptionally smart. They know she’s setting a long-term trap to catch big fish.
"Actually, I had already spread some rumors before this. It should have been the day after Mr. Jia’s disappearance that I put them out."
Upon hearing this, Wei Changqing’s eyes lit up.
"Please elaborate, Sister-in-law."
"Someone placed bait in front of me, wanting me to bite. I pondered, it’s unlikely that your nemesis, the Black Hats, did it; it’s more likely that the con artist did."
Wei Changqing froze for a long moment: Rogers?
Since when did Rogers target Gu Nuan? He wasn’t even aware!
Zhan, the chairman of Anneng Insurance Group, stood by the window of the headquarters building’s office, hands clasped behind his back, deep in thought.
Standing behind him was the designer Qia Ran.
Qia Ran whispered, "Gu Nuan intends to acquire my design company."
"She knows you’re my protégé, but she wants to steal from me?" Chairman Zhan raised his eyebrows.
"No. She doesn’t know that my business partner is you, Chairman Zhan."
"She’ll find out soon. Is she trying to collaborate with me? Targeting that piece of land?"
"Regarding that land, she didn’t mention anything, only said no competitor can be overlooked."
Chairman Zhan pondered briefly, "She’s a very cautious person."
"What do you plan to do, Chairman? You see, three months have passed, and she hasn’t taken the bait."
According to their original plan, they had conducted preliminary research on that land well before. Nobody wanted that land. The reason being, locals are superstitious and say the feng shui is bad, which is why development of the land was delayed.
