Chapter 21
Chapter 21
Whether it was meeting with partners or talking with them, Fu Zongming had always done it in front of Gu Su. He didn't seem to have any memory of whether Xue Lun and Fu Zongming had contacted again after that.
"Well, we had a phone call after that time, and I decided not to contact the museum project in person. After I explained the reason, Xue Lun expressed his understanding, and we haven't contacted each other since then." Fu Zongming said, "You Do you think he is Xue Lun?"
Gu Su stared at the still picture, his voice was a little soft: "It looks like it."
Secretary Lin asked curiously: "Who are you talking about? Who is Xue Lun?"
As soon as these words came out, both Gu Su and Fu Zongming looked at her, the surprise in their eyes could not be concealed.
Secretary Lin has never been a deep and dignified person, her expression was innocent and confused, Gu Su knew that it was her question from the bottom of her heart.
"Xiao Lin, are you serious?" Fu Zongming's tone was a little heavy.
His expression was too serious, Secretary Lin shrugged his shoulders, and said innocently: "What's wrong? Is this person 'unspeakable'?"
"Xue Lun, he made an appointment before, the CEO of Xinhuang. You received him, did you forget?" Fu Zongming's face became serious.
"Xin Huang?" Secretary Lin's expression also turned strange. She walked quickly to the computer, picked up the appointment record book, hurriedly turned to one of the pages, opened her eyes wide, and held up the record book to show them: "Boss, Xin Huang The president had something unforeseen that day, so he canceled the appointment, and I told you right then!"
She stretched out her fingers, pointed at the crossed-out records like a chicken pecking at rice, and raised her voice: "Besides, Xinhuang's CEO is named He, and his name is He Jing!"
Fu Zongming took the record book. Although the record was marked with a red pen, it did not affect the reading of the words at all. It was clearly written in black and white. The person who made the appointment: He Jing.He looked at Gu Su, what Secretary Lin said was true.
"It's impossible... I obviously asked my cousin." Gu Su was also a little confused by the incident, "He won't lie to me."
Secretary Lin swallowed a mouthful of saliva, seeing that both of them seemed to have been greatly shocked, and said cautiously: "I am very familiar with Mr. He's secretary, why don't I ask? Maybe it's just a friend of Mr. He came to see you?"
It's not convincing at all, but that's all I can say.Secretary Lin refused to think about what Fu Zongming said, that it was the man named Xue Lun whom she received.No matter how you think about such a thing, it is illogical, but if it is said to be a supernatural event, even Xiao Su has not been able to recover, she is even less afraid to think about it, it is simply impossible to make people think carefully. pole.
With Fu Zongming's acquiescence, Secretary Lin dialed the phone number of Xin Huang's president's secretary, turned on the speaker, and after the phone rang three times, it was connected.
"Hello?" A sweet female voice came out.
"Song Song, I'm Yichun." Secretary Lin's throat was a little tight, she coughed a few times to clear her throat, "I have something to ask you."
"Hey, tell me." The other party seemed to be doing other things, so he replied a little casually.
"Your boss is He Jing, right? He's Xin Huang's CEO, right?" Secretary Lin's tone was full of uncertainty.
"That's right, don't be stupid, you still have to ask this kind of question?" Secretary Song laughed, but turned his attention to the conversation.
Secretary Lin pouted at Zong Ming: Look!She continued to ask, "Then, is there someone named Xue Lun in your company?"
"Xue Lun?" Secretary Song paused for a while, as if recalling, "I really don't know about the employees, but there are none among the shareholders and executives."
"That's it..." Secretary Lin said, "Alright then, let's come out for some snacks next time!"
"Okay... wait!" Secretary Song suddenly shouted, "I found out that when the museum bid was held more than ten years ago, a man named Xue Lun was given [-]% of the shares after the bid was successful. , A small circular was issued within the company. But he is only taking dry shares, has no position or real power, and has never appeared in the company. This happened a long time ago."
"I see. Let's do this first. We'll talk next time we have snacks together." Secretary Lin hung up the phone and looked at Fu Zongming, only to see that her boss looked at Gu Su without blinking, and came to her soon. There was no intention of making eye contact, and I couldn't help but rolled my eyes.
Gu Su frowned, he was a little uncertain, when he asked Yuan Junce, did he say that Xue Lun was the president of Xinhuang?Or maybe, what Yuan Junce said and what he said were not the same person?
But Secretary Lin's reaction was obviously inappropriate. Both he and Fu Zongming clearly remembered that Secretary Lin was the first person to meet Xue Lun, and she was the one who introduced them to them.
Now it seems that the Xue Lun they saw is not necessarily the same person as the Xue Lun that Secretary Song mentioned.
What is his purpose?Just want to take Fu Zongming to see Yu Shijian?Could the anomaly that Fu Zongming appeared later be also attributed to this, that person had a premeditated plan to use the Yushi Sword to cause some bad consequences?
Even if those were not mentioned for the time being, it was obviously not for any good deeds to steal Yu Shijian and give it to Fu Zongming.
"Throw it away." Gu Su was firm.
Fu Zongming was surprised: "What?"
"Or I'll take it and dispose of it. In any case, you can't keep it." Gu Su couldn't help but reseal the box.He is going to find Gu Yinhan, the Gu family has been in charge of the underground exhibition hall, so there must be a proper way to deal with it.
"Why?" Fu Zongming suddenly pressed the box, "I really want to keep it."
Gu Su looked at him expressionlessly, Fu Zongming looked at him calmly, although he didn't say a word, he showed a rare tough attitude.
Between his brows, the red mark was gradually revealed again.
Gu Su exhaled slowly, and said softly, "Let go."
Fu Zongming's expression turned fierce: "No!"
The scene suddenly became serious and turbulent. Secretary Lin was stunned. She had never seen Fu Zongming angry, let alone Gu Su!
The fish master vibrated slightly in the box, and its powerful resentment and curse soon filled the small space, escaping from the gap in the box.
Fu Zongming's eyes gradually turned red, as if he was extremely angry, he said, "I want to keep it."
"Okay." Gu Su let go of the hand holding the box.
Fu Zongming stared at him, on guard, alert to any of his movements.It seemed that Gu Su really compromised, he took the box, took a few steps back, and turned to enter the office.
Suddenly, there was a sudden pain in his neck, his eyes went dark, and he lost consciousness and fell straight to the ground.
This sudden turn of events made Secretary Lin almost scream. Gu Su picked up the box and said calmly, "Miss Lin, take care of him, I'll be right back. If he wakes up before I come back, what might happen to you?" Can't help it, I suggest you tie him up first. You'd better..."
Gu Su paused for a moment, and continued: "You'd better inform Mrs. Fu, the situation is not good."
After he finished speaking, he walked into the elevator. Secretary Lin stretched out a hand and shouted in his heart: Help!Don't go, I can't handle it alone!I'm just a weak lady, why make me face this?
She looked at Fu Zongming, who was more than 1.8 meters tall and strong on the ground, and there was only despair in her heart. She swore that she would never bring inexplicable things into the office again!
Gu Su went to the gate tower to find Gu Yinhan, and after handing over the fish master to Gu Yinhan, Gu Yinhan was shocked: "You really stole it?"
"The person who stole it gave it to Fu Zongming." Gu Su said, "Fu Zongming seems to have lost his mind because of this. You have to keep it properly."
Gu Yinhan hesitated to speak, but finally did not speak, just nodded.
Gu Su didn't dare to delay any longer, and immediately returned to the company. He didn't strike hard, and Fu Zongming might wake up at any time.
Sure enough, when he arrived at the company, Fu Zongming had already woken up. He didn't seem to be abnormal, and it was inconceivable that he would wake up on the ground.
Secretary Lin said calmly, "Oh, you were sleepy just now, so you fell asleep."
Fu Zongming looked at the rope in her hand: "I was so sleepy that I lay on the ground and fell asleep? What are you going to use this rope for?" He became vigilant, "You don't mean to strangle me, do you?"
"..." Secretary Lin seemed to have seen the savior, and shouted in the direction of the elevator, "Xiao Su, you are back!"
Gu Su walked out of the elevator calmly, as if nothing had happened, helped Fu Zongming up, and said softly: "I just went out for a while, why did you sit on the floor?"
Fu Zongming thought about it carefully, and said, "Xiao Su, you hit me, right?"
"Why do I remember this again..." Gu Su muttered softly.
"Xiao Su," Fu Zongming said calmly, "Is there something abnormal about me again?"
"No, it was just a joke, I missed it." Gu Su is not good at lying, he tried his best to be sincere, but he couldn't fool anyone.
"Xiao Lin, tell me." Fu Zongming looked at Secretary Lin.
"Hmm... Boss, you were so fierce before, I was scared by you." Secretary Lin carefully rubbed against Gu Su's side, hiding the hand holding the rope behind her back.
Fu Zongming's eyebrows were lowered, his face was hidden, but his eyes were full of annoyance and bewilderment.He looked at Gu Su, his lips parted slightly, but they seemed to be choked, and he couldn't make a sound.
Gu Su hastily walked over to comfort him, and said, "If you think this is a serious matter, then you should also blame me. I didn't fulfill my duty, and there is such a thing by your side." The situation, even helpless to the point of knocking you out."
Secretary Lin stepped forward at the right time: "Boss, you should go back and have a rest."
Under Gu Su's comfort, Fu Zongming reluctantly agreed to go back to rest. The conversation not long ago was still vivid in his ears, but in just a few hours, the situation changed drastically.
He may not be worried about his own safety, but he doesn't know what he did when he was unconscious. What he worries about is whether he will do something to hurt Gu Su when he is unconscious.Obviously, there are faint signs now.
Gu Su went home, prepared enough food for Huben, and decided to guard Fu Zongming at the villa tonight.
After nightfall, there was no activity in the Fu family, and Aunt Qiong went back to bed early.Fu Zongming took a shower and lay down on the bed. Gu Su asked him to rest early today, and he was willing to listen to him.
The lights in the room were off and the curtains were drawn.There was the sound of the chair moving slightly by the bed, someone sat down slowly, his soft eyes enveloped him, and then he seemed to be in a trance and didn't move.
Fu Zongming could feel his gaze, his whole body was like fine sand falling, and he felt a little unbearable.He tried to divert his attention, but failed.
He opened his eyes and looked at Gu Su in the dark: "I can't sleep if you look at me like that."
Gu Su blinked, turned his face away: "Then I won't look at you."
"But you're next to me, so I can't sleep either." Fu Zongming turned over and lay on his side looking at him.In the dark room, only a little outline can be seen. Gu Su’s eyes seem to be filled with shattered light. Illusion, to look directly into his eyes.
"Why?" Gu Su was a little innocent.
"You're next to me, I just want to look at you, even when I close my eyes, I can't fall asleep." Fu Zongming's tone was flat and natural, but it was deliberate.He has thousands of ideas to let Gu Su know that there are thousands of ways of expression, but he wants to use this way, as if it can make that unusual emotion become natural.
He knew the weirdness in it, but he didn't intend to restrain it. He wanted this natural emotion to be known to Gu Su naturally.
Gu Su was silent for a moment, with a touch of helplessness in his soft voice: "Then where should I go?"
"You..." Fu Zongming hesitated, but he still said tentatively, "Then you sleep on the bed."
There is no response for a long time, and the temptation to control the exit seems to be about to turn into a stone that hits oneself in the foot.Fu Zongming clenched his teeth, resisting the urge to turn his back on him in annoyance, and instead said, "Come up?"
Just when he was about to beat himself to death with embarrassment, Gu Su moved, walked slowly to the other side of the bed and sat down, then lay down.
"is this OK?"
Fu Zongming turned his back to him, and now he didn't regret his boldness at the moment before, he was thinking about another thing: how to turn around naturally and face Xiao Su face to face, without looking deliberate?
Gu Su, who was behind him, stared at the back of his head with some burrs.He took out a talisman from his pocket, folded it into a triangle, and stuffed it under the pillow without a sound.
Fu Zongming suddenly thought that he was not prepared for such a hasty invitation, "I'll go get you a pillow."
As soon as Fang raised his upper body, he was pressed down by a hand on his shoulder. His strength made the defenseless Fu Zongming unable to resist.He really wanted to get the pillow, and he didn't pretend to be, but he was pushed back immediately, and he couldn't help but feel a little surprised.
"No need." Gu Su said softly, "Your pillow is enough."
For a moment, Fu Zongming didn't know whether he should think: "Xiao Su has practiced before, what should he do if he can't suppress it", or whether he should think about "are they sharing the same bed?"
There was some confusion in my mind, like a group meeting.Fu Zongming reached out to reach the hand on his shoulder amidst the sound of his heart beating like a drum. He slowly put his hand on his fingers, but the other party seemed to agree and did not withdraw.
The drowsiness gradually swept up, and it came violently. Fu Zongming closed his heavy eyelids and fell into a deep sleep.
After an unknown amount of time, there was a slight movement downstairs, and Gu Su opened his eyes instantly, his eyes were clear, as if he hadn't fallen asleep at all.
He withdrew his hand and walked out of the room.The corridor was very dark, but the only light was enough, Gu Su walked to the stairs, and saw the person sitting on the sofa at a glance.
She lowered her head slightly, took off a pair of high heels, and sat quietly on the sofa. She seemed to feel something, and looked up to the second floor.
Gu Su went downstairs and called softly, "Auntie."
"It's a bit late to come back, sorry." Gu Xinming forced a smile with the tiredness of the journey on his face, "How is Zong Ming now? Did he sleep?"
"Sleep now."
Gu Su told Gu Xinming all about Fu Zongming's anomalies without any concealment. She is Fu Zongming's mother, and it is absolutely impossible for her to be ignorant of these things. At least, she will know the antecedents.But she never told Gu Su what happened before, and just asked him to take care of Fu Zongming, which was unreasonable.
"Auntie, it's hard to do it alone. I just left the school not long ago, and I'm just a half-baked guy." Gu Su looked at Gu Xinming and said slowly.
Gu Xinming looked at him softly: "Then what do you want me to do? Or say something?"
"He should have died young, but his physiology is no different from that of ordinary people. He can't see luck or future." Gu Su said in a low voice, "Even if you look at it with the eyes of the sky, it's like a cloud and a mist, blocking it out. I guess Perhaps Master has done something wrong, but I am not as powerful as Master, and cannot cope with unknown situations."
"What is the unknown, and what is the known?"
Gu Su listened quietly, and Gu Xinming's tone gradually increased: "Should I tell you that the one in the upstairs room is a lonely soul without an owner? Do you want me to say that the child was bound by your master at all?" In that body?"
Gu Su was shocked and at the same time felt that it was expected.
"Before your master, many Taoist priests came." Gu Xinming's straight shoulders relaxed, as if she had lost the strength to support her, her voice was so soft that it seemed that she didn't touch the vocal cords at all, and she only supported herself with one breath, " They said that there are evil spirits in this house, and they want to drive away the ghosts for me...but I asked for it. No matter who he was before, he is my child now, and no one can take him away. .Those mad Taoists..."
The events of that year are vivid, and Gu Xinming's tone is still unwilling to resent. Those guys who talk nonsense are all fraudsters, and all those who say that should be kicked out!
"Dead early? But he didn't die young, he never got the chance to be born. Yuan Zhengqi rejected me, Yuan Zhengqi wanted to rely on my father to control the original family, he promised to help me... But he was too helpless Why, Zong Ming's soul was unstable after he was born, and he also attracted countless ghosts to try to sneak in. It's your master who has a way to successfully fix the soul in the body with a charm..." Gu Xinming laughed a few times, and whispered to his ear. The slipped hair was tied behind the ears, which also concealed the madness that was almost on the verge of collapse.She lowered her voice, "Is he not good? Isn't he a good boy? I love him..."
Her narration was intermittent and somewhat vague, but it was unnecessary, as Gu Su could guess.
Gu Su didn't speak for a long time, the whole living room was eerily silent and dark, both of them breathed softly.
Gu Xinming was almost disappointed, but she heard Gu Su say——
"I know, I will find a way."
All the words were silted up in his chest, and the thoughts surging in his heart had no beginning or end, and he didn't know where to start. One thought was instantly overwhelmed by another thought.But after saying that sentence, the next words came out naturally.
Gu Su continued: "No matter what happened in the past, I promised to protect him. If Master would do such a thing, he must have recognized him."
Anyway, Fu Zongming wouldn't die if the spell didn't disappear for a day. Even if the spell failed and he had to go to the underworld, Gu Su would go to the underworld to bring him back.
Not just because of his intolerance and pity for Gu Xinming, but also because he didn't want Fu Zongming to encounter such a thing.Fu Zongming is very good, he has the right to live like ordinary people, that's what Gu Su thinks.
After Gu Xinming confides, her worried mood has eased a lot because she heard that her son is abnormal. She held Gu Su's hand, her eyes were a little fragile: "Xiao Su, Zong Ming is already grown up, I can't always be by his side .You are Master Ban's apprentice, so I can only entrust him to you."
Gu Su was a little dazed, but he still nodded in response.All he knew, the only person who knew these things was the confused Master Ban. If he didn't want to go down, who else could Fu Zongming rely on?
He really couldn't bear it.
