Hearing the sound of the door opening, Su Yimo got out of the blanket.

She looked at the door, her mouth furled, her eyes sad.

There is no rebuttal, so... Did he acquiesce?

She withdrew her gaze, rolled over with a grin, and closed her eyes.

But in less than half a second, she opened her eyes again.

She frowned, feeling... Something seems to be wrong.

She slowly lifted the blanket in disbelief, and when she saw what was inside, her face changed instantly, black and red, mixed with a touch of indescribable complexity.

She groaned and slumped on the pillow with her face covered.

This bastard... I even took off all her clothes!

Even close-fitting... None of them are immune.

Wasn't she being beaten by him...

What if she wants to kill someone?

I really want to stab this shameless and despicable bastard to death with a 50-meter long knife!

…

In the study, Gu Lichen took a sip of coffee, looked at Adam Smith's Wealth of Nations on the table, and said, "Found out?" ”

Xiang Bai nodded, "I found out, this plagiarism incident, Miss Su was framed by a fashion designer named Vivian, as for the resignation, it was Miss Su who took the initiative to propose it, it should be that she doesn't want to work in HK anymore." ”

"Vivien?"

Gu Lichen lazily lifted his eyelids.

"Well, she is now known as the No. 1 designer in Kyoto, and she is very popular and famous in the fashion design world and fashion circles."

"It's very popular, it's very famous."

The corners of Gu Lichen's mouth hooked a playful sneer.

"She has no old hatred with Miss Su, and there is no new hatred, most of them are afraid of Miss Su's strength, and want to nip her in the bud before she develops."

"Hmph, it's just a despicable scumbag with no real skills, do you know what to do?"

Gu Lichen closed the book and stared at him.

Xiang Bai nodded, "Yes." One more thing..."

He hesitated to look at Gu Lichen's face and speak.

Gu Lichen frowned impatiently, "Say!" ”

He is most annoyed by the way he looks, if there is anything not to say directly, he has to say it in the end.

"Those reporters... Not all of them were invited by Vivien. ”

"Who else?"

"And..."

"Speak quickly!"

"And Madame..."

The words landed, and the study suddenly fell into a brief silence.

"I see, you can get out."

After a while, Gu Lichen waved his hand expressionlessly.

"Yes."

After Xiang Bai left, Gu Lichen leaned back in his chair, closed his eyes, and rubbed his temples.

Does she have to force him to do anything to her?

…

Three days later in the evening.

Gu home, living room.

Gu Lichen sat on the sofa, didn't speak, and didn't have any expression on his face, but he made Yang Rong even more flustered and uneasy.

Since he returned to Gu's house half an hour ago, he has been like this.

He didn't look at her, didn't speak, and his calm complexion was like the dead silence before the storm, oppressive and terrifying.

Originally, she was a little apprehensive when she saw him during this time, but now she is not worried, but afraid.

Yang Rong swallowed her saliva nervously, she couldn't stand it anymore, got up, and wanted to escape upstairs.

But as soon as she turned around, Gu Lichen stopped her.

"Sit, there's something I'd like to talk to you about."

Yang Rong's heart trembled, and her face turned pale in an instant.

"Let's talk tomorrow, I... I'm a little unwell today and want to go upstairs early to rest. ”

"Don't make excuses, sit!"

Gu Lichen exposed her lies and spoke in a tough tone.

Yang Rong bit her lip and sat down again.

"I said last time, don't touch her again, are you taking my words as a deaf ear?"

Gu Lichen held the teapot, poured her a cup of tea, pushed it in front of her, and spoke.

Yang Rong looked at the cup of tea, but didn't dare to stretch out her hand.

"As a punishment, I will take back all the equity in your hands, and from now on, you don't have to worry about the affairs of the group company, and be a rich idler."

Gu Lichen also poured himself a cup of tea and took a sip.

"No! You can't do this! You don't have that right! ”

Yang Rong's face changed drastically, she slammed the table and stood up.

Her chest rose and fell violently, and her fingertips trembled.

No way! Absolutely not!

She has worked hard for so long to have such a little real power and such a small amount of shares in her hands.

How could she possibly give it away?

Neither can your own son!

Gu Lichen lifted his eyelids and glanced at her, and said coldly, "I didn't say this to ask for your opinion, but to tell you this fact, whether you agree or not, you have to accept it!" ”

After speaking, Gu Lichen put down the teacup and got up.

"Why? I'm just... It's just to teach her a lesson, let her recognize her identity, and be self-aware, am I wrong? Li Chen, a girl born in a civilian like that can't enter our Gu family, give up! ”

Yang Rong stared at his back and shouted.

She knew that he was not close to her, but she didn't expect that he could do such a thing to her, and he could be so ruthless!

Even if, even if she didn't fulfill her responsibilities as a mother, she was still his mother?

How could he do this to her!

"It's not up to you to make it, it's me."

Gu Lichen stopped and replied to her.

"You hate her, not because she's a commoner, but because she's like a human being and you're jealous of her."

"I didn't! I didn't! You are talking nonsense! ”

The most secret and unbearable thoughts in her heart were rudely pulled out, and Yang Rong suddenly collapsed, shouting in a panic with red eyes.

"Li Chen, no matter how you say that I am also your mother, why, why do you treat me like this?"

Gu Lichen finally turned around, and the emotions on Jun's face were rare excited, "You are my mother, but have you ever loved me?" No, you hate me as much as you hate the man next to you. ”

Throwing down this sentence, he left without looking back.

Yang Rong looked at his back in a daze, tears jumping from her eyes.

Yes, she hated him, but that was only when he was a child, and now that he is so good, she can't be proud, how can she hate.

Yang Rong sat down on the sofa, closed her eyes, and wept silently.

He was right, she was jealous of Su Yimo, just as she was jealous of Shen Yueru.

Why can their girls from civilian backgrounds have the love of such an excellent man, how can they marry into a wealthy family and enjoy glory and wealth.

Why?

…

"Young Master."

The housekeeper saw Gu Lichen and nodded respectfully.

"Well, Uncle Zhou, has Miss Lu been here very often lately?"

"It's quite diligent."

"Don't let her come after that."

"Yes." Although Zhou Bo was surprised, he didn't ask much, his duty was to carry out orders, and he didn't need to know why.

…

Jinghua Art Garden.

When Su Yimo came back, it was already past eight o'clock.

She went out early in the morning, went to Andy's house, discussed with her all day, looked up the information all day, and when she came out of her house, her voice was dumb.

She was both excited and nervous, but also deeply felt the hardships and difficulties of starting a business.

She drank a few glasses of freshly squeezed juice in the kitchen, and her throat was much better, and it was not so hot and painful.

She finished washing her cup and was just about to go out when the phone rang.

She wiped the water from her hands and picked up the phone.

"Hey, Brother Shen Zhuo."

"I heard you quit?"

Shen Zhuo was also in the kitchen, and he asked while cutting fruit.

The tone was the same as usual, warm and soft.

Su Yimo's heart warmed up all of a sudden, she hooked the corners of her mouth and smiled, "Yes, I'm a jobless vagrant now." ”

She doesn't need sympathy, she doesn't need others to share her sadness, she just wants to have a friend who cares about her, and the two of them will chat naturally and cordially.

"What's the plan? Otherwise... Go back to Liangcheng to help me, don't worry about the salary, it's definitely better than your previous one. ”

"I don't want to go back, I want to start my own business here."

Su Yimo leaned against the kitchen counter and said.

"Start your own business?"

Shen Zhuo's hand shook, cut his finger, and blood gushed out instantly.

Su Yimo heard his gasping sound and asked worriedly, "Brother Shen Zhuo, are you okay?" ”

"It's fine."

Shen Zhuo rinsed the wound and replied.

Cold water was poured over the wound, and soon it didn't hurt so much.

"Have you figured it out? Starting your own business can be difficult and risky. ”

"After thinking about it, working for others, I am always constrained, and I can't make the clothes I really want to make."

"Is that an investment?"

"Not yet... Now I have such a bad reputation that it is difficult to get investment for a while. ”

Su Yimo sighed, and her tone was obviously much lower.

"You don't have to worry about this, if you really want to do it, I can help you solve the investment problem."

"Really?"

Su Yimo's eyes lit up instantly.

"Of course."

Shen Zhuo took out the medicine box, opened it, and took out a band-aid.

"That's great! Brother Shen Zhuo, I like you the most! ”

Su Yimo cheered happily.

Although he knew that she was unintentional, Shen Zhuo's band-aided hand still shook a little, and when it touched the wound, his eyebrows were furrowed in pain, and his thick long eyelashes trembled.

He was silent.

His heart was beating so fast that his brain went blank, and he didn't know how to respond.

"Brother Shen Zhuo? What happened to you? Why don't you speak? ”

Su Yimo's surprised voice came, making Shen Zhuo return to his senses.

He wrapped up the band-aid, and his face returned to calm, "Not much, thinking about things." By the way, what do you want to do this time when Vivien framed you for plagiarism? ”

"What else can I do, bear it, she doesn't leak, and I don't have any evidence to prove my innocence."

Su Yimo drew circles on the counter with her fingers and said sullenly.

"Who said there is no evidence, you still remember what designs you drew in college to hand in your homework"

"Then who can remember, so many design drafts."

"I remember, the more I looked at your design, the more familiar it became, and then I looked through your previous assignments and found a very similar design

Draft, this manuscript is enough to prove your innocence. ”

“… Brother Shen Zhuo, you didn't lie to me, did you? ”

It took Su Yimo a long time to recover from the huge surprise and asked overjoyed.

"Silly girl, how could I lie to you with such a thing, I'll bring it to you when I return to Kyoto in a few days, and I'm not worried about mailing it."

Shen Zhuo put the medicine box back in the cabinet and said.

"Thank you, Brother Shen Zhuo."

Su Yimo's eyes were red and she was about to cry.

She was so happy and moved that she never thought that he would be able to keep all her design assignments in college.

…

Outside the door.

Gu Lichen leaned against the wall, although his face was hidden in the shadows, he could still feel the coldness surging.
