Why did you protect me?

Ling Xiaoman only laughed and said: "Don't worry Miss, I already know that I have followed Gourmet to the study room a few times."

Gu Qingyao smiled and nodded, then said: "Uncle Liang, I'll have to trouble you to follow me. My father's study room is a mess, if I take the wrong documents, I'm afraid it will be very troublesome."

Although Gu Qingyao was smiling, Ling Xiaoman could clearly feel that Gu Qingyao was trying to intimidate her, was she worried about herself?

Ling Xiaoman subconsciously tightened the corner of her skirt, and followed Liang Zhongqi while forcing a smile.

Only then did Gu Qingyao look at Nian Wanru, and said: "Then, I'll go look around the company first, and when I come back I'll hear about Mr. Li from mother."

Mr. Li is a good person, but he's a little cold. Those things that happened in the past your father didn't like us to bring them up, so when we go back, mother will tell you in detail. Nian Wanru laughed, and could not help but ask: "However, Xiao Yao also did the same, why did he suddenly think of going to the company?"

"Haven't I always been a big fan of finance? I just want to go to the company and see what it actually looks like. " Gu Qingyao laughed and said: "It's also good for me to prepare for my internship at the company in the future."

"Your father must be very happy that you have such a heart." Nian Wanru couldn't help but smile.

Taking the chance that Ling Xiaoman had not come down yet, Gu Qingyao went up to put on some makeup and changed into a dark blue light skirt. Looking at the dress, it was dignified and elegant, yet not overly mature, she gently pulled up her hair and picked an exquisite pearl clip to wear before turning around and looking at Uncle Liang who was coming over: "Does Uncle Liang think that this is alright?"

Liang Zhongqi couldn't help but be taken aback as he stood at the door, "Miss, you look really similar to the mistress when she was young."

Hearing that, Nian Wanru could not help but raise her head and look over, her eyes immediately revealing a smile: "Is it really that similar, or is it really so suitable, the blush on her cheeks is a little lighter here is a little better."

Nian Wanru personally wiped Gu Qingyao lightly a few times, then nodded in satisfaction: "Alright, go."

She and Gu Yanzhi were just two such children, so the Gu's would definitely give them to Gu Qingyao in the future.

Gu Qingyao showing interest in the Gu's was naturally a good thing.

Very quickly, Ling Xiaoman walked down the stairs. Looking at the well-dressed Gu Qingyao, her pupils slightly constricted, but she still smiled and opened her mouth: "Miss Gu."

"Hmm, did you get the documents?" Gu Qingyao casually asked.

Ling Xiaoman nodded her head: "Yes, then I will accompany Miss Gu to the company. If Gourmet does not have time, then I can only accompany Miss Gu for a walk."

"Alright, then I'll be troubling Assistant Ling." The driver opened the door and Gu Qingyao naturally sat in the back. Ling Xiaoman hesitated for a moment, before sitting in the front passenger seat.

Gu Qingyao had been sizing up Ling Xiaoman's expression the entire time, her eyes drooping as she laughed: "How long has Assistant Ling been in Gu's?"

"This is the first year." Ling Xiaoman replied meekly.

"Is that so?" Gu Qingyao looked out of the window, and spoke in a normal tone: "To be able to achieve father's position of assistant in the first year, I presume Assistant Ling's past history is not bad?"

"No …." Ling Xiaoman said awkwardly: It's just a normal experience, and just so happens to be this time's social recruitment. It's probably because Gourmet thinks that I'm still a bit talented.

His eloquence is not that great …]

As Gu Qingyao calculated in her heart, her gaze couldn't help but pause for a moment on Ling Xiaoman's body.

There was always a thorn in the bottom of her heart. The last words she heard in the ward in her previous life were like that, little by little rooted in her heart, making it impossible for her to escape.

Her father, Gu Yanzhi, had someone outside …

Could this be true?

She didn't want to suspect her father. After all, before this, Gu Yanzhi had always doted on her.

Gu Qingyao closed her eyes, just as she wanted to rest, her gaze was fixated on her own necklace.

had mentioned before, that his necklace was shining. Just now, he was absolutely sure that he had seen it again.

"Miss, what's wrong?" Ling Xiaoman asked with concern.

Gu Qingyao said indifferently: "Nothing."

She reached out to rip the necklace off, hiding the uneasiness in her heart.

The next second, his phone rang again.

She glanced at it and frowned —

Li Muyan.

This name that had been in his address book for less than a day, why would he suddenly contact him?

"Hello."

"What happened?" Li Muyan's voice was very heavy.

Gu Qingyao was startled. "Nothing, why did Mr. Li suddenly call?"

"Um …" "I need to confirm your situation." Li Muyan frowned, and said: "Are you outside?"

Gu Qingyao's hand touched the necklace, as if she suddenly understood something. Her expression became slightly more stern, and she said in a deep voice: "Stop by the side."

"But Miss …"

"Move aside." Gu Qingyao said without hesitation.

Gu Qingyao got off the carriage, and after confirming that the people inside could not hear anything, she opened her mouth: "You followed me, right?"

Li Muyan chuckled.

Seeing that he had no intention to explain, Gu Qingyao continued, "You placed a tracking device on my necklace."

Li Muyan said indifferently: "This tracking device will only work for the next three days. If someone forces it to remove itself from your neck, I will receive a report to the police."

"You …"

Those people who wear necklaces for a long time will have slight scars on their necks, "Li Muyan said in a very calm tone, and then continued," I suspect that someone beside you might be plotting against you, so I want to protect you. "

Gu Qingyao was simply about to be angered by Li Muyan's bandit logic. She spoke helplessly: "Mr. Li, the person who is following me illegally now, seems to be you."

Li Muyan's pupils darkened. He suddenly felt that the girl in front of him was not as stupid as he thought she would be.

"Why should I pursue you illegally?" Li Muyan asked coldly, "So you suspect me?"

Gu Qingyao choked.

Honestly speaking, she did not suspect Li Muyan at all. This person did not have the slightest bit of relationship with her in his previous life, and his mother had also said just now that he was a good person. Thinking about it this way … Perhaps this was the only person he could trust right now.

Thinking up to here, Gu Qingyao could only say, "Did Mr. Li discover something that day?"

"Rather than saying that I've discovered it, it's more accurate to say that I've seen it." Li Muyan paused for a moment, and said: "Do you want to know what exactly happened that day?"
