Chapter 022: An Unexpected Divine Turn

In the darkness of the night, neither of them spoke, and walked silently towards the gate of the villa.

When she arrived at the door of the villa, Yi Qinglian turned around and said softly to Gu Xiaolin: "You wait here for a while, I'll go say hello to my father." ”

Gu Xiaolin can understand Yi Qinglian's special reminder that this must be the potential rule of the owner of the Yi Group, and as a guest, he should abide by the internal rules. Considering these things, Gu Xiaolin would of course return the favor with hospitality, and nodded to Yi Qinglian.

Yi Qinglian Gu Xiaolin was so cramped, her tightly locked face suddenly sneered: "Fool, I'm joking, you still take it seriously." ”

Gu Xiaolin suddenly shook his head helplessly, he swallowed back the words when the words came to his lips, and hurriedly followed Yi Qinglian into this villa.

As soon as Gu Xiaolin entered the hall of the villa, he raised his eyes and saw a middle-aged man with a country-like face sitting on the sofa, reading the newspaper in his hand while sipping steaming coffee.

The middle-aged man looked very concerned, as if he was not surprised by the sudden arrival.

As soon as Gu Xiaolin saw this middle-aged man, he already knew that this was Uncle Yi Jianfeng that his father said, he was worthy of being a superior person, and he was full of shelves.

And Yi Qinglian, who was quietly observing these two men on the side, suddenly felt that the atmosphere had become a little embarrassing, and she was smart and hurriedly walked to Yi Jianfeng's side, hugged Yi Jianfeng's arm and said, "Dad, don't look at it, there are guests coming." ”

Yi Jianfeng smiled, suddenly showing maturity, stability, and atmosphere, worthy of being a person who has been crawling in the mall for decades, and it is really extraordinary. He immediately put down the newspaper in his hand and stood up, looked at Gu Xiaolin with a smile, and said, "Steward Liu told me, you are Gu Tianhao's son Xiaolin's nephew, I haven't seen you for many years, but you look like a talent." Yi Jianfeng pointed to the sofa and said, "Sit, don't be restrained." ”

Although Gu Xiaolin is bohemian, he still understands the basic humanistic etiquette, not to mention that his father specially told him not to embarrass Lao Tzu, not to mention that Gu Xiaolin is like an arrow, and he doesn't want to be too polite, so he simply thanked him and sat down.

Yi Jianfeng looked at his daughter Yi Qinglian and said gently: "I have been friends with Xiaolin's father for decades, Xiaolin's arrival is a distinguished guest, don't you lose to make a cup of tea to quench Xiaolin's thirst?" ”

"Good dad."

Yi Qinglian knew that his father was usually very serious, but today he saw Gu Xiaolin very kindly, and she liked it in her heart, she smiled and said to Gu Xiaolin: "Xiaolinzi, do you want green tea, milk tea, or coffee?" ”

Although Gu Xiaolin immediately got to the point, he was embarrassed not to be enthusiastic, so he had to ask for a cup of coffee, and soon Yi Qinglian brought a cup of hot coffee, and motioned to Gu Xiaolin to try it, Gu Xiaolin is also worth following.

Coffee in the mouth, antique, sweet with bitter, bitter but not sour, sour but not greasy, greasy but not thick, strong and sweet.

Gu Xiaolin, as a well-known young master in Donghai City, usually has a deep understanding of all kinds of food and drinks, but the coffee handed to him by the eldest lady in front of him was the best coffee he had ever drunk.

With the coffee out of his mouth, Gu Xiaolin had a new view of Yi Qinglian.

This Yi Qinglian is not only extraordinary, but also has a hand in making coffee, and has a fight with Duanmu Yuhong's tea ceremony.

As soon as he thought of Duanmu Yuhong, Gu Xiaolin's expression suddenly dimmed, and endless sadness poured into his heart.

Yi Jianfeng, who had a wide eyesight, immediately sensed that something was wrong with Gu Xiaolin, a young man, and hurriedly asked, "Xiaolin, why is your face so ugly?" ”

Yi Jianfeng's voice was low and powerful, Gu Xiaolin immediately woke up from the pain, calmed down his mood, and replied with a smile: "Uncle Yi, I'm fine. ”

Yi Jianfeng paused and said, "Okay, I don't know what to do, did Xiao Lin come to Kyoto to find me something?" ”

Yi Jianfeng cut to the point, which was exactly what Gu Xiaolin meant, he looked at Yi Jianfeng and said, "Uncle Yi, my father said that this thing can only be handed over to you alone." After speaking, Gu Xiaolin looked at Yi Qinglian again.

Yi Qinglian was so smart, she naturally understood what Gu Xiaolin meant, glared at Gu Xiaolin with beautiful eyes, made a grimace and got up to leave.

Yi Jianfeng saw his daughter Yi Qinglian go upstairs, his expression became serious, and he said to Gu Xiaolin: "Xiaolin, what is it, this mystery?" ”

Gu Xiaolin hurriedly took out the small brocade box from his body, handed it over, and said, "Uncle Yi, this is what my father asked me to send to you, and my father explained that he must hand it over to you in person when no one is around." ”

Yi Jianfeng kept staring at the brocade box in his hand and said, "I see, I don't know what this brocade box sent by Brother Gu contains?" ”

Gu Xiaolin shook his head and said: "The younger generation doesn't know, when I came to Kyoto, my father told me a thousand times, and told me not to open this brocade box out of curiosity, otherwise the consequences will be very serious." ”

When Yi Jianfeng heard this, a trace of wonder immediately appeared on his vicissitudes of life, and he hurriedly said: "Let me open it and take a look, this trick played by Brother Gu is too mysterious, I am a little curious." ”

Yi Jianfeng didn't think twice, and directly opened the brocade box in his hand.

The lid of the brocade box was covered with a layer of purple lacquer, with a little pattern on it, and the bright light from the chandelier happened to be projected on the lid of the brocade box, because the lid was smooth and delicate, the purple light was reflected in Gu Xiaolin's eyes, which suddenly made Gu Xiaolin unable to see the expression of Yi Jianfeng in front of him at this time, and he didn't know what was in the brocade box.

At this moment, with a crisp sound of the lid closing, Gu Xiaolin finally saw Yi Jianfeng's expression at this time, serious, puzzled, and clear.

I don't know what was in that small box, which made the expression of a person who had been in the mall for decades change repeatedly.

Gu Xiaolin hurriedly asked, "Uncle Yi, what is in this brocade box?" ”

Yi Jianfeng looked stunned, and then said indifferently: "Oh, it's nothing, your father just told me something." ”

Yi Jianfeng was obviously a little flustered, but he didn't mention it at the moment, Gu Xiaolin felt a little strange, but looking at the light inside the brocade box, it was obviously extraordinary, it should not be an ordinary thing.

Gu Xiaolin couldn't help asking: "Uncle Yi, what is in this brocade box?" Why do you see Uncle Yi's expression a little solemn? ”

Yi Jianfeng looked at Gu Xiaolin, and then said, "Uncle has something to deal with, Xiaolin, you wait here for a while, and I'll come when I go." After saying that, he hurriedly walked out of the villa.

Seeing this, Gu Xiaolin had no choice but to stay and sit in place, anxious, so he had to continue to taste Yi Qinglian's coffee.

Not long after, a series of footsteps sounded outside the villa door, Gu Xiaolin immediately became alert, the footsteps were getting closer and closer, and he inexplicably felt that something was wrong, and he was about to get up, but unfortunately it was too late.

More than a dozen tall and mighty black-clothed men rushed in from outside the villa, and two of them instantly pressed Gu Xiaolin to the ground.

A familiar voice came to Gu Xiaolin's ears: "You, you, you, and you, are responsible for looking at Young Master Gu, and the others will come with me." ”

Gu Xiaolin was pressed to the ground by two men in black and couldn't move, he wanted to struggle but didn't have any strength, because the thing was too sudden, Gu Xiaolin was unprepared and could only glance at the person who gave the order with his eyes.

But at this glance, seeing the person in front of him, Gu Xiaolin was surprised, and couldn't help muttering: "What's the matter, how could Uncle Yi treat me like this?" ”

Gu Xiaolin's voice was not loud, but Yi Jianfeng heard it very clearly, so he lowered his head and looked at Gu Xiaolin, who was pressed to the ground with an ugly face, and said, "Xiaolin, you can't blame your uncle, it's all your father's meaning, you stay honest." ”

Yi Jianfeng's words had completely dumbfounded Gu Xiaolin, he didn't expect that the result at this time turned out to be what his father meant, could it be that his father disliked what he had done before?

The words that Yi Jianfeng said completely confused Gu Xiaolin, and his handsome face was already full of dark clouds.

At this time, Yi Jianfeng said: "Xiaolin, you may not know the way, in fact, this is also the secret in the brocade box, as for what the secret is, my uncle can't say." ”

Gu Xiaolin immediately shouted: "What are you doing? Why can't you tell me the truth? Uncle, since this is what my father meant, I have to understand what my father means to me like this. ”

Yi Jianfeng didn't speak, he shook his hand and motioned to the two black-clothed people who were grabbing Gu Xiaolin, and when the black-clothed people saw it, they immediately let go of Gu Xiaolin, who was pressed to the ground.

Feeling that there was no restraint, Gu Xiaolin immediately stood up and looked at Yi Jianfeng with an angry face, but he didn't dare to act rashly, after all, he was a strong man standing here, and one could take care of him.

Yi Jianfeng looked calm, obviously didn't care about Gu Xiaolin's eyes, but said to Gu Xiaolin strictly: "Xiaolin, this matter is too important, it's better not to know the Tao for the time being, listen to my uncle's words and go upstairs to a room with my three men, and rest for a while." ”

Gu Xiaolin is not a fool, isn't this a clear intention to put him under house arrest? Gu Xiaolin originally wanted to return to Donghai City immediately to find out the cause of Duanmu Hongyu's death.

Now his father has sent him all the way through a brocade box, but he is under house arrest, is it his father's meaning, or Yi Jianfeng's meaning? Gu Xiaolin forcibly suppressed the anger in his heart, and asked in a heavy voice: "Uncle Yi, we have no grievances and no hatred, why do you want to put me under house arrest, I still have something very important to rush back to Donghai City, please let me go immediately." ”

Yi Jianfeng ignored Gu Xiaolin and said indifferently: "If you are still like this, don't blame your uncle for being strong!" This is all what your father meant, if you want your father and the Xuanshi Group to be intact, just go upstairs obediently. ”

After speaking, Yi Jianfeng signaled to the two black-clothed men behind Gu Xiaolin, and the two black-clothed men immediately clasped Gu Xiaolin's hands, and as soon as Gu Xiaolin shouted pain, his hands were already buckled behind his back, as if he was being escorted into custody.

At this moment, a beautiful figure appeared at the top of the staircase.

It's Yi Qinglian.

Gu Xiaolin and Yi Jianfeng both looked at Yi Qinglian, only to see that Yi Qinglian's pretty face was full of surprise and puzzlement. She walked down quickly, and asked Yi Jianfeng puzzled: "Dad, what's going on, why did you arrest Gu Xiaolin?" ”

Yi Jianfeng snorted and said, "What does the little girl's family know?" ”
