In the middle of the night, the Gu family's mansion in Rongcheng Bibo Park is still a busy scene. The maids, dressed in delicate and neat uniforms, nervously walked through the courtyard pavilions, like worker bees in a hive, pouring their nests with their own efforts to maintain the vigorous operation of the heart of the Gu family.

Just a few years ago, it was a secluded and comfortable paradise, and although Gu Cangsheng, the head of the Gu family, bought land here, he almost never lived here. As the second boss of Bolanzhuang, he basically takes the business group as his home and is busy with work all day long. And considering that he is getting older and is gradually delegating power, it is natural that the talents in the family who are in the age of fighting will not leave the left and right, and they will also take the business group as their home. Considering that these family elites are good at team battles, their daily life and work are all staff, secretaries, servants and other idle people-with the business group as their home, they naturally have to drag their families with them, so the headquarters of Bolanzhuang has been overcrowded for a long time......

It wasn't until more than two years ago that after a storm that was inconvenient to talk about, the Yu family of Wave Zhuang suddenly lost power, so the Gu family took advantage of the situation, and Gu Cangsheng took over the power logically. After taking power, he gradually moved away from the headquarters of the merchant group, moved out of the office where he had lived for decades, and opened the mansion in Bibo Garden. Since then, many important strategic decisions and family appointments have been made in this mansion. So once upon a time, the mansion, which was also a family vacation and leisure place, became a center of power and wealth.

And where the power and wealth are, the talents of the family will naturally follow. For more than two years, every space in the mansion has experienced fierce competition, and then, being able to have a separate bedroom of their own here is regarded by many Gu family members as a symbol of being in the circle of power - after all, this mansion was not built as a prison and dormitory, although it has tried its best to present grand moat luxury, the bedroom setting is also limited, even if some temporary addition of some annexes, wooden rooms, and sky pavilions, now the serious bedroom is less than three digits.

Most of the dozens of bedrooms have been carved up by the real power figures in the family, leaving only a few rooms for improvisation. And these bedrooms naturally have different grades, among which the Qionglou Cave Heaven located at the highest point of the main house is occupied by Gu Cangsheng, like a throne to suppress luck. At the head of the throne, a covenant-keeping court that is not spacious, but can inherit the afterglow of Qionglou, is regarded by many Gu family members as the position of heir.

However, now the covenant court is still vacant, as if it is a carrot that Gu Cangsheng deliberately put on the talented people in the family to urge the young people to continue to work hard. On the other hand, the Trade Wind Garden, next door to the Covenant Court, already has its own owner.

This means that in this long battle for the heir in which countless Gu family members participated, some people are already about to win the final victory.

Late at night, the Gu family, who was only one step away from victory under the watchful eye of the public, returned to his Trade Wind Garden with a tired body. Her beautiful silver hair, which had always been the most beautiful in the moonlight, was now dimmed and dry by the moonlight, as if she had lost her spirit. And this scene was naturally firmly captured by many eyes lurking in the dark, and it was quickly transmitted back to the rear, so that those competitors who couldn't sleep at night could finally celebrate and fall asleep with a smile.

As for Gu Shishi herself, she didn't seem to care about those hidden malicious eyes at all, and calmly showed her current tiredness and fragility at home, until she walked into the Trade Wind Garden and pulled on a light veil as thin as a cicada's wings to activate the formation and cover all the eyes that came to investigate...... She finally put a mocking sneer on her face.

At the same time, there were already people waiting in the room, but it was a young woman with a delicate and lovely appearance and a long figure, and when she saw Gu Shishi, she couldn't help but smile and said, "Sister Shishi, what's so happy?" ”

Hearing this voice, Gu Shishi's smile finally became gentle, she looked at the person in the room, couldn't help nodding, and said in a low voice: "Orange, you are here." ”

The girl named Orange tilted her head: "The leader hasn't gotten off work yet, how dare I run around?" ”

Gu Shishi sighed helplessly: "Don't call me a leader, I won't pay you a salary...... I'm a bunch of worries today, so don't make fun of me. ”

"What's wrong, what's wrong? Is there something going on over there at the hill fortress? ”

Gu Shishi sneered: "I can't tell you about the matter over there, there is someone who keeps the secret oath...... But you can really guess accurately. ”

The two of them obviously didn't care about this blatant violation of the oath, and Orange just shrugged: "After all, the family's affairs are not qualified to make Sister Shishi worry at all, those people really think they have a chance." ”

When Gu Shishi heard this, her smile couldn't help but turn cold: "Yes, those people really think I'm the biggest competitor!" The old man made a move to lead the way, directly put the most hated person on the fire, and took advantage of the situation to put the heir he really wanted in a safe position, which is really clever. ”

Orange said: "Sister Shishi should pay attention to restraining her emotions, and when you meet the old man tomorrow morning, don't let him see the flaws." ”

Gu Shishi waved her hand: "It doesn't matter, as long as you don't behave too much, not only will he not mind, but he will be happy." For the kind of old man who has been a human spirit all his life, he can still find out the mistakes of young people in his twilight years, see the thoughts of young people, and issue threats that make young people break out in a cold sweat, so that he can really feel the joy of being in power...... And only when he is happy, my position in the family can be stable, so even if I am beaten by him, I will not lose anything. ”

"Huh?" Orange tilted his head again, "Sister Shishi, are you sure you want to take the favored courtier route?" Aren't these work materials prepared in vain? I still think that you must not make any mistakes when reporting to work. ”

As she spoke, she turned around and was about to clean up a file on the desk. was stopped by Gu Shishi in time.

"Of course not in vain! Other things can be wrong, but things at work must not be fooled. Gu Shishi explained seriously, "If you want to be a favored minister, there is never a shortage of people who are good at being a favored minister. After all, it is because of my recent outstanding business performance that I have the qualifications to be handled by him...... If I hadn't known you in the past few months and had some achievements in my work, I'm afraid he wouldn't have looked down on me at all, and what is the vice president of the Construction Investment Association to the big boss of Bolanzhuang? So, let's show me the information, tonight I will try to chew it carefully, report tomorrow morning, and deal with his difficulties so that there will be fewer mistakes. ”

"Wow, then I, the little staff member who drafted the report, suddenly felt a heavy responsibility, in case something went wrong......"

"That's my problem, too." Gu Shishi said, "I have never made a mistake in the things that I have handled, I just don't worry about myself." After a pause, she added, "It's a pity that you have always refused to really do things for me, otherwise I would have been able to rest assured if I took you with me during the report...... In fact, just casting a family mark will not really restrict you from anything, and I will not treat you as a subordinate. ”

Orange smiled: "But I'm still used to calling you Sister Shishi, not Boss Gu." ”

It was not the first time that Gu Shishi was rejected, so she was not annoyed at all, but smiled: "Actually, I am too, the feeling of calling you an orange is better than calling you your full name." It's funny to say, you and I met by chance a few months ago, but in just a few days, we became sisters as if we were in love in our previous lives......"

Orange smiled even more cheerfully: "Lovers in a past life? It's a romantic statement, but I don't mind continuing the relationship. ”

Gu Shishi shook her head: "I can't accept the intimacy above sisterhood, so I'm afraid I'm going to disappoint you......"

Orange shrugged: "It's good to be a sister, I have been wandering alone for a long time before, and it is the first time I have met a good sister like Sister Shishi, and I have been by your side for a few months, it is my most lively day, I ...... And not asking for more. ”

Gu Shishi looked through the information and said frankly: "Then stay here all the time and don't leave, although the Trade Wind Garden is not a spacious place, it can still make room for you." ”

"Well, as long as Sister Shishi doesn't dislike me, I will always follow you. I'm afraid that there will be too much gossip from the people around me......"

Gu Shishi couldn't help laughing: "Ha, gossip? Do I still need to be afraid of any rumors? In the past two years, I haven't heard any strange words, the time when I fell in love with Qin Yu, I had to be arranged every day, and there were really all kinds of ugly words...... However, maybe they are still right in some places, I am indeed a frivolous woman who has no emotional permanence and wants to be a play. ”

When Orange heard this, he sighed leisurely: "Sister Shishi, I'm sad, our good fate is like a night of romance by you." ”

Gu Shishi laughed and said, "Isn't it just a night of romance!" If it weren't for the bad mood that day, I would have gone to the wilderness to drink alone, and I wouldn't have met you, a Nanxiang backpacker, and I wouldn't have drunk with you all night, and I would have married Jinlan on the spot. ”

"Eh~"

Gu Shishi said, but sighed faintly, and her smile melted: "Actually, Qin Yu and I seemed to be like this at the beginning, just because of an accident, we got along for more than two years...... Although he received his life-saving grace, in fact, why did the Gu family need to compensate himself for repaying the kindness? At that time, it was as if his mind was not clear, looking at him everywhere like a flawless white moonlight, I wanted to give him everything I had......"

Orange said, "Women, there will always be times when your mind is not clear." Although Sister Shishi, you have been delayed for more than two years, as long as you finally wake up, it will not be too late...... Wait, Sister Shishi, what you mean by this is that you are not talking about this long-term meal ticket you gave me, only for two years? ”

Gu Shishi laughed again: "With the means you have shown during this time, it is impossible for me to let you leave after two years, what I have always thought about is that even if you want to leave one day, I will leave you at any cost." Let go of an able assistant like you, and I will be a shame to my family. ”

Saying that, Gu Shishi sighed again: "The old man has always taught us that there is no shortage of capable people in this world, and we must maintain an open vision and an open mind." But before I met you, I really didn't expect that there would be someone in the world who is so smart. These troubles in the merchant group can always be easily solved in your hands, and you have never been exposed to these matters before. I've been thinking that if you start your own business, maybe it won't take ten years to have an industry that is not inferior to that of Langlanzhuang. ”

Orange shook his head and smiled: "Sister Shishi, don't be joking, I'm just a little smart, and it is all because of the resources in your hands that Sister Shishi can do such and such things." In today's world, one person's cleverness alone can't do anything, so in fact, I also want to thank Sister Shishi for giving me the opportunity to show my skills. ”

Gu Shishi no longer argued, only said: "With me, you will never lack the opportunity to perform...... Not. ”

As she spoke, her mind gradually sank into the report, and she stopped speaking, but after a while, her eyelids sank and she fell asleep.

Orange tries to cover her with a blanket, but she wakes her up and makes her yawn and wave her hand.

"No, I can't sleep tonight, I'll insist on it, wait for the report tomorrow, and then go to the Jiantou Zone to doze off."

Orange asked, "Then are you going to stare at the old man with an embarrassed look?" Too deliberate, right? ”

Gu Shishi said with a smile: "It's not deliberate, now, in the context of some things that can't be said because of keeping secret oaths, I, the manager at the forefront of the Wave Village, is duty-bound to be busier than before." If I don't put on an embarrassed face, the old man will blame me for not doing my best enough. ”

"Eh, I remember he made it clear at the family dinner that family members should put their health first......"

When Gu Shishi heard this, she even lost a little tiredness, and pouted her lips a little disappreciatively: "It's just an excuse to show off your health regimen, if the people below are all about health, who will focus on their careers?" And showing off health is essentially a show of power. Those who have the power can devote a lot of time to their health, but if the people below who consolidate their power do not do their best to do things properly, so that the people above break their daily routines, sacrifice their cultivation, and affect their health, it is a great sin. ”

Orange couldn't help but say: "I heard that when Old Man Gu was the second boss in the past, he took the business group as his home and often advocated hard work, and at that time he almost didn't take a break once a month......

Gu Shishi sneered again: "If you doze off, there are top physiotherapists who set up a magic circle for you, and those who warm up the Yuan Shen don't need to rest completely...... Forget it, it's no fun to spit out all this black mud. For those ordinary people in the Construction and Investment Association, how can I, a person who enjoys the pure spirit of the earth's veins in the Trade Wind Garden, not be an unreasonable and superior person? Anyway, take advantage of the spirit now, and help me do the math here. ”

"Okay."

——

At the same time, far away in the underground secret room of the mountain fortress, Brother Ding, who was dressed in sportswear, had already frowned deeply, and drops of cold sweat slid all the way from his forehead to the bridge of his nose along the folds of the Sichuan character......

With the help of Guan Xiaohe's invisible trap bee, he could hear the conversation in the Trade Wind Garden clearly. Many other small issues can be ignored, but ......

But what is that orange sacred?!
