She knows she's fooling herself

"I know that's my own opinion, but I've tried to summarize my thoughts, including a certain amount of consideration for past historical analysis and future changes in the direction of national policy. At least it can be used as a reference, "Gu Qingyao was a little nervous, and her tone was quick." I've actually thought about it a lot, but no matter what, I don't know what I should give you.

Li Muyan could not help but smile.

He looked at the girl in front of him. She was clearly only eighteen, but she was seriously considering so many things.

For him, there were so many things to consider.

"You should know that the Gu Clan is also a real estate agent." Li Muyan said calmly.

Gu Qingyao was startled for a moment, then nodded and replied: "That's why I'll probably use this information later on."

"Thank you." Li Muyan said seriously.

Gu Qingyao laughed: "No need, this is something I can do, we can … It's a partner, isn't it? "

She seriously emphasized the point, but it was unknown if she was lying to herself or to the person in front of her.

Li Muyan looked deeply at Gu Qingyao for a moment, then chuckled: "I'm your senior, it's not good to take your things."

Gu Qingyao was slightly startled.

"Your birthday is June, isn't it?"

"Hmm? "Right." Gu Qingyao nodded in agreement.

"Alright, I'll write it down." Li Muyan laughed, and then patted Gu Qingyao's head, her tone gentle and strange: "It's a little cold outside, quickly go back and rest early."

His voice was so pleasant to hear, and Gu Qingyao couldn't help but smile. "Alright, good night."

Li Muyan seemed to be startled, and then he nodded and replied, "Good night."

Seeing Gu Qingyao jogging back into the room, Li Muyan subconsciously touched his face, only to realize that he had been smiling the entire time.

He slowly closed his eyes, sat back in the car and said, "Let's go back."

"Young Master Li, are you going home?"

"Right." Li Muyan replied indifferently, and opened the folder at the side.

That was information about the Gu family, and it was written perfectly, and the date just happened to be today. Li Muyan looked at it for a while, then fretfully closed the folder.

… ….

The next day, when Gu Qingyao woke up in the morning, she remembered that they had arranged to meet Ling Xiaoman today.

She had been a little absent-minded all morning, but Nian Wanru had obviously noticed it. She could not help but laugh: "Did Mr. Li come over last night?"

"Hmm? "Yeah." Gu Qingyao laughed embarrassedly.

Nian Wanru put down the piece of bread in her hand and asked: "What do you think of Mr. Li?"

Gu Qingyao was startled.

This was not the first time Nian Wanru had raised this question.

However, Gu Qingyao felt that Nian Wanru's tone this time was very unusual.

She was silent for a moment, and then said tentatively: "I think. Mr. Li is not bad, and has helped me a lot. "

"He treats you differently from anyone else." Nian Wanru was silent for a moment, then suddenly said: "In the past, I rarely saw Mr. Li take the initiative to explain anything. When he reached Li Muyan's height, he could act however he liked, without needing to explain anything to anyone, and no one dared to blame him, but towards you … Mr. Li obviously did use a lot of thought. "

Gu Qingyao's heart trembled slightly as she looked up at Nian Wanru.

"There are some things that Mom can't say, but you have to remember deep down in your heart, he … After all, he's your little uncle in name. " Nian Wanru lightly coughed as she said.

Gu Qingyao was startled, she shook her head: "Mother, there is no such thing, Mr. Li treats me so well … … I will remember all of it in my heart, and I will definitely repay you in the future. "

"En, that's good." Nian Wanru heaved a sigh of relief and gently patted Gu Qingyao's head: "Eat."

Her gaze landed on the Almond Pie not far away. It was an exquisite box, with ribbons tied onto the top. It seemed to be something Li Muyan had brought over last night.

Li Muyan... When had he ever been so nice to someone?

At least, Nian Wanru had never seen it before.

It would be false to say that he was not at all moved, but at the same time, he couldn't help but worry for Gu Qingyao.

The age difference between them was just too big. With Li Muyan's deep scheming mind, wanting to break through Gu Qingyao's heart was simply too easy.

Nian Wanru thought for a while, then said: "Oh right, is your father going on a business trip these few days?"

"Mn, yes," Gu Qingyao laughed: "My new special support has been very good, and is also very considerate towards me at work."

"Did the work go well yesterday? However, I heard you objected to the Yue Clan's plan. " Nian Wanru said.

"I have always felt that there was something strange about the Yue family's project. I don't know why dad kept insisting on it. Logically speaking … That project is very small for our profit and it has nothing to do with our main direction. " Gu Qingyao said seriously: "A shared car project, it can be said that it is not the current Morning Sun project, and the prospects may not be too good either. If Father insists on it, I think we will eliminate it in the company meeting, and it will reduce Father's prestige, so I might as well do it now."

Nian Wanru looked at Gu Qingyao deeply.

Gu Qingyao rarely spoke out her claims in such a straightforward manner.

She had always said that she liked economics and Nian Wanru had only treated it as a play between kids. She had never thought that Gu Qingyao had already come to this place.

After a long while, Nian Wanru finally nodded: "Mother understands what you are saying, but you know …. "Why hasn't Mom ever opposed your father?"

Gu Qingyao was startled, and shook her head.

"Him... He told me before that the reason why he gave this project to the Yue Clan was to let the Yue Clan remember our friendship. In the future, the Yue Clan would always be inferior to you in a grade. As Nian Wanru said this, her eyes revealed traces of a smile.

But Gu Qingyao felt cold all over.

No …. No.

What was the reason why Gu Yanzhi had always wanted to pull him and the Yue Clan together?

Although Gu Qingyao still could not see clearly, she would not easily believe these words.

Gu Yanzhi must have a reason for insisting on such an obviously unequal marriage, but it might not be for himself.

His past innocence slowly faded. Gu Qingyao slightly raised her lips, put down the dishes in her hands, and said: "Mom, I'll be going to the company first."

Nian Wanru thought for a moment, then suddenly said, "Xiao Yao, come back a little earlier tonight. Mom has something to tell you."

Gu Qingyao slightly hesitated for a moment before nodding and replying, "Okay."

Nian Wanru seemed to still want to say something, but after hesitating for a moment, she turned into a gentle smile, "Go."

Gu Qingyao took her briefcase and rushed out.

Nian Wanru hesitated for a long time before looking at Liang Zhongqi, "Is that Ling Yiyi's information the same as the one we got that day?"

"Yes, Madam. The old master insisted that it was a misunderstanding..."

Nian Wanru laughed bitterly and shook her head.
