Chapter 357: Chapter 356: Where Did He Go?

Feng Qingyang pressed the phone on the table, "Notify Han Xiao to come and escort Miss Gu out."

This conversation was now over, Feng Qingyang was not one to cling obstinately.

Since others were unwilling, Feng Qingyang would not force them.

Gu Xiaoqing smiled, this was Feng Qingyang’s style.

Han Xiao appeared in the office almost five minutes later and seeing the two people sitting calmly without speaking, he assumed that the deal had been struck.

"See Miss Gu out."

Feng Qingyang tossed out a sentence.

Han Xiao could only lead Gu Xiaoqing out.

But it was clear this curiosity couldn’t be satisfied.

"Gu Xiaoqing, what did you say to Feng Qingyang?"

Actually, Han Xiao knew Feng Qingyang’s intention, and he even regretted having told Feng Qingyang about Gu Xiaoqing’s matter. Otherwise, perhaps the one cooperating with Gu Xiaoqing in the end would be their Han Family.

After all, everyone knew about the high profits of investment companies. This new company model was almost nonexistent in the mainland, and they had the opportunity to be the first to bite the crab.

Following Gu Xiaoqing to obtain profits had already allowed Han Xiao to taste the sweetness; to hand over this God of Wealth on a silver platter to Feng Qingyang, Han Xiao was unwilling.

Yet he also knew he couldn’t compete with Feng Qingyang.

Han Xiao wasn’t senseless; there was no need for conflict between the Feng Group and the Han Family.

They were close business partners who shared all the benefits and there was no need to argue over who gained more or less.

"You sold me out, and you don’t know what Feng Qingyang said to me?"

Gu Xiaoqing was clearly annoyed with Han Xiao.

Feigning innocence, Han Xiao spread his hands and said, "I knew Feng Qingyang wanted to talk cooperation with you, but I’m not aware of the result of your conversation. Did you agree or not? Both of you have no expression; I’m not the worm in your stomach, so how could I know?"

He was truly wronged, he really didn’t know.

Stepping out of the elevator, Gu Xiaoqing quickened her pace.

Han Xiao hurried after her, "What’s going on? You’re going to drive me nuts."

Gu Xiaoqing got in the car, fastened her seatbelt, and picked up her books.

Han Xiao sat down in the driver’s seat and complained, "Don’t be like this, I was just forced to do some things against my will. But I really didn’t intend to harm you, you should understand my efforts. After all, Feng Qingyang’s decision for you is a great opportunity, one that others beg for but can’t have."

Without starting the car, Han Xiao continued to vent.

Curious, Gu Xiaoqing asked, "What issue do Fang Shaohan and Feng Qingyang have?"

This was what she should be curious about.

Gu Xiaoqing just felt that Fang Shaohan wasn’t the type to give up halfway, perhaps it was because she was unwilling, unwilling to let go of a man who once pursued her fervently, but now abruptly pushed her away with such detachment and indifference.

Maybe this is what people say: rushing isn’t the same as buying, but suddenly losing the one rushing at you, she unexpectedly found herself unadapted.

She was more concerned, more curious, wanting to investigate.

Han Xiao started the car and drove silently.

"I can’t say."

Han Xiao said honestly.

Both of them fell silent.

This untold secret made Gu Xiaoqing even more curious.

The fact that Han Xiao, who couldn’t keep his mouth shut, managed to stay silent, truly puzzled Gu Xiaoqing.

Sending Gu Xiaoqing back to school.

Han Xiao left.

Since neither of them could convince the other to divulge what they wanted to know, they resorted to silence.

Gu Xiaoqing returned to school and continued her exams.

The sixth-level English exam was finally over.

This day was a relief for Gu Xiaoqing; she had achieved this through her own capability, unrelated to shortcuts, a personal achievement.

Feng Qingyang hadn’t appeared during this period, nor had he bothered Gu Xiaoqing again, at most occasionally inviting her out for meals via phone calls, though Gu Xiaoqing never went.

Clearly, Feng Qingyang wanted Gu Xiaoqing to see a world she had yet to see, an ultimate temptation, luring Gu Xiaoqing into a world she was unwilling to enter.

Gu Xiaoqing didn’t want her inner thoughts to be easily disturbed, even if such disturbance hardly counted as chaotic, considering the painful experiences Gu Xiaoqing had gone through differed from the present delightful world.

The world she had witnessed might not have been so luxuriously beautiful, but having seen such a glorious world, how could she not understand her own thoughts?

That day, after the exam, Guo Donghua took Gu Xiaoqing out to celebrate.

It was merely an excuse for the two to have a hearty meal.

However, upon reaching the school gate, they encountered a familiar face.

Gu Xiaoqing was stunned this time.

Because the visitor was none other than He Cui.

If it were someone else, it wouldn’t have startled Gu Xiaoqing like this.

He Cui was the most unlikely person to appear here, yet she had shown up.

Gu Xiaoqing’s heart sank.

An ominous feeling involuntarily emerged within her.

Her intuition suggested that something had happened to either Fang Shaohan or Fang Shaonan.

He Cui waved at Gu Xiaoqing upon seeing her.

Guo Donghua had no choice but to let go of Gu Xiaoqing, whispering, "We’ll celebrate another day."

Guo Donghua didn’t know He Cui, but merely looking at their age, he could tell she was Gu Xiaoqing’s elder, and definitely unsuitable to appear in front of them.

Apologetically, Gu Xiaoqing squeezed Guo Donghua’s palm before heading towards He Cui.

"Aunt He, why are you here?"

In fact, Gu Xiaoqing hadn’t seen much of He Cui over the years, distancing herself deliberately following Fang Shaohan’s difficulties aimed at her.

She didn’t want to earn the reputation of a social climber. 𝒻𝑟𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝑛𝘰𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝘤𝘰𝘮

So she only visited during Lunar New Year, generally avoiding chances to familiarize herself with He Cui.

He Cui grabbed Gu Xiaoqing by the arm and said, "Let’s go, we need to sit down, I have something to say to you."

Her tone was urgent.

Gu Xiaoqing thought for a moment and said, "Alright, Auntie, I have a place nearby, let’s go to my house."

It was a suitable place for a conversation, Gu Xiaoqing could sense He Cui’s anxiety, suggesting something had indeed happened to the Fang Family.

The two went to Gu Xiaoqing’s place.

Sitting on the sofa, drinking the green tea brewed by Gu Xiaoqing, He Cui could finally ease her anxiety.

"Xiaoqing, please sit down, I need to ask you something."

Gu Xiaoqing sat down.

"Auntie, go ahead."

"Do you know where Fang Shaohan went?"

He Cui’s words were like a bolt from the blue, leaving Gu Xiaoqing somewhat stunned.

Where had Fang Shaohan gone?

That question was certainly problematic.

"Auntie, I haven’t seen Fang Shaohan for a long time, aside from meeting him during the new year, there’s been no contact. We don’t have any interaction." These were honest words.

Fang Shaohan truly hadn’t been in touch with Gu Xiaoqing.
