Chapter 17 Distinguished Guests

Both physically and mentally exhausted, Gu Weimian really wanted to fall asleep. Thinking that Mr. Huo would come tomorrow, she still managed to prop herself up and took out her phone to call her grandfather.

The most urgent thing now was to tell her grandfather that she didn't want to get engaged to Ao Qijun!

She made several calls, but the other party didn't answer.

Gu Weimian frowned and called the Gu family's old house. This time, the call was picked up by the servant.

"... Master? The master said that a distinguished guest would arrive in a few days, and he went to the airport to greet him in person."

"Distinguished guest?" Gu Weimian's heart skipped a beat, and she had a very bad guess, "Is it someone from the Huo family?"

"Yes, Miss, I heard that it was an old friend of the master, and the gentleman's surname was Huo. )"

Gu Weimian sat up suddenly from the bed.

Mr. Gu and the one from the Huo family have already met? !

How could this be? She remembered that in her previous life, he clearly arrived the next morning!

Did she remember it wrong? Or has something changed?

The sun was setting, and the clouds on the horizon were red, as hot as fire.

At the window of the first-floor secondary bedroom in the old house of the Gu family, Huo Yan stared out the window, his eyes were dark, and it was hard to tell what was going on.

The bedroom door was opened.

"Master." Leng Rui closed the door and walked to Huo Yan's side almost silently.

The man had already turned around, his expression cold: "What's the matter?"

Leng Rui looked in the direction where Huo Yan had stared before, which was the direction of the gate of the old house, and there was nothing there.

The way Huo Yan stared just now, it seemed more like he was waiting for someone?

But after a moment, Leng Rui dispelled his absurd idea. He followed Huo Yan to the coffee table and stood still: "I just found out that two plots of land under the name of Mr. Gu were transferred to the name of Ao Qijun of the Ao family. It did not involve any business cooperation. It seemed to be related to Mr. Gu's visit to the Ao family three days ago."

Three days ago?

Huo Yan's eyes narrowed suddenly. Was it the day when Gu Weimian's suicide farce happened?

Leng Rui's expression was a little cold: "Preliminary judgment is that Mr. Gu and the Ao family have reached a marriage alliance, and the marriage is between Ao Qijun and Gu Weimian."

As soon as the voice fell, Leng Rui felt the air temperature in the room drop suddenly. He quickly glanced at Huo Yan, and the man's face was already cold, like an invisible ice knife, piercing into the bone marrow.

He was almost unstable.

Before Leng Rui could react, Huo Yan pushed the wheelchair and walked straight out of the bedroom.

"Master!" Leng Rui hurriedly chased after him, "Aren't we waiting for the old man? The old man doesn't know about this matter yet..."

Contacting the man's cold eyes, Leng Rui's voice lowered as he spoke.

Huo Yan's aura was extremely cold, silent, and repressed... Just one look was thrilling.

Gu Weimian couldn’t sit still any longer, and she got up from the bed and rushed to the Gu family’s old house, when her cell phone rang again.

When she saw the caller ID, her brows frowned impatiently, and she pressed the answer button. Gu Siyu’s gentle voice came from the other end of the phone: “Weimian, didn’t mom inform you that grandpa asked us to come to the old house today.”

Gu Siyu smiled, “Yinyin is here too, and brother Qijun will be back soon. You know, don’t forget to dress up well later. Here, I’d like to say congratulations to my sister first.”
