The Ice King's Little Trouble Maker-Chapter 615 - 579

"I think I heard something about the Yunzhong Building."

A voice echoed again at the entrance of the banquet hall.

Everyone turned once more to look toward the doorway.

Qiao Yuxian listened to the voice, startled, and also turned to look at the entrance.

Gu Yanjing also followed to look at the entrance.

Wen Mingcheng walked in with long strides, thin eyebrows, narrow eyes, and thin lips. There was a smile on his face, but he still gave off a sense of indifference.

"President Wen." Someone at the banquet greeted him.

Wen Mingcheng nodded in response.

When Gu Linhai saw it was him, he came down from the stage.

Coincidentally, Wen Mingcheng walked to a spot not far from Qiao Yuxian, and as Gu Linhai came down from the stage, he approached him: "President Wen, you found time to come today?"

That Assistant Jian also stood behind Wen Mingcheng at the banquet.

Wen Mingcheng shook hands with Gu Linhai: "President Gu, recognizing your son is such a joyous occasion, I was in Jin City and had to come over."

Gu Yao walked up to Gu Linhai’s side, nodded, and greeted Wen Mingcheng.

"You’re too kind, President Wen," Gu Linhai said, "I heard you haven’t been in Capital City lately, so I sent the invitation to Assistant Jian."

"Yes," Wen Mingcheng said, glancing at Gu Yao, "I was dealing with some personal matters recently, just got back a few days ago."

Qiao Yuxian looked at Wen Mingcheng, glanced at his leg, and then at his arm.

She had just seen him in D Continent.

He had recovered well, but after walking for a while, his leg was still a bit uncomfortable and had a slight limp.

But in his current state, there was no sign of it, and it seemed he could even run.

She looked up at Gu Yanjing.

Gu Yanjing squeezed her fingers gently, signaling it was okay.

If something really happened later, they could always have Shang Chen carry him away.

Wen Mingcheng and Gu Linhai were chatting.

People at the banquet started whispering again.

"President Gu is a visionary, collaborating and competing with the Yunzhong Building."

"President Gu is still impressive; who else could have such a good relationship with President Wen?"

"If you ask me, if the Gu Group were in President Gu’s hands, it would definitely be better. Young people are too aggressive and don’t know how to adapt."

"Yes, if the Gu Group were in President Gu’s hands, they wouldn’t have lost projects to the Yunzhong Building one after another."

"Since they can’t win, why keep trying? That’s no way to do business."

"The only reason the Gu Family is still standing is because of its deep roots; otherwise, it would have been ruined long ago."

"The two have met now. Yunzhong Building brings an assistant, fine, but now the person in charge is here. Who knows what might happen when they meet."

"Wasn’t it said that Wen Mingcheng was taken away by that mysterious boss?"

"That’s just what they say outside. Once he came, Assistant Jian walked to him, so there’s definitely nothing wrong."

"Just wait and see, maybe today we’ll witness a big drama between the Yunzhong Building and the Gu Group."

"President Gu is someone with substance, able to converse with anyone. Those with ability and strength always appreciate each other."

...

The phone in Qiao Yuxian’s pocket vibrated occasionally.

Gu Yanjing and Chu Zhengran’s phones were the same.

Listening to their whispers, Qiao Yuxian curled her lips.

This group of people is always spreading the word that Gu Yanjing is inferior to Gu Linhai.

With so much media presence, once it hits the internet,

everyone would think Gu Linhai is competent and should take over the Gu Group.

Afterwards, with a good reputation, recognition of a son would also be advantageous.

Wen Mingcheng and Gu Linhai were talking and started laughing, and while doing so, he glanced at her.

Seeing her curl her lips, Wen Mingcheng’s smile instantly disappeared, shocked: "Curled at me?"

Qiao Yuxian looked at him: "......"

Wen Mingcheng spoke with Qiao Yuxian.

The murmuring voices immediately vanished, watching them, eager for a spectacle.

Gu Linhai and Gu Yao watched them.

Gu Yao sensed something was off.

Gu Linhai might have been a bit lost by the praise from the entire banquet hall, completely unaware, happily introducing Wen Mingcheng: "This is Yanjing, Mr. Gu. President Wen should know him. This is his wife."

Wen Mingcheng looked at Qiao Yuxian without speaking.

"Just kids," Gu Linhai continued to maintain his good uncle image, "President Wen, don’t take it to heart, just playing around."

Wen Mingcheng glanced at Gu Linhai, then looked at Qiao Yuxian and said, "I’ve been here for so long, aren’t you going to greet me?"

Gu Linhai’s proud smile froze.

Qiao Yuxian: "......"

"Hmm?" Wen Mingcheng asked again.

Qiao Yuxian was at a loss for words, but soon forced a smile: "Uncle Wen."

Hearing her voice, Chu Zhengran chuckled.

It didn’t sound like she was greeting Uncle Wen, more like she was killing Uncle Wen.

Everyone else was completely shocked.

Uncle Wen?

They know each other?!

Gu Linhai’s pupils trembled, watching Wen Mingcheng and Qiao Yuxian in shock.

The expressions of the two clearly showed they knew each other, and their relationship was not ordinary.

Gu Yao squinted his eyes.

Qiao Shuning was also stunned, staring intently at Qiao Yuxian.

Quan Rong couldn’t make anything out, but he was also watching them.

Wen Mingcheng got goosebumps from her calling: "Y-you speak properly."

"Okay, Uncle Wen," Qiao Yuxian replied.

Assistant Jian couldn’t hold back and chuckled slightly.

Wen Mingcheng turned and glared at him.

Assistant Jian pressed his lips, holding back laughter.

Gu Yanjing also chuckled: "Uncle Wen."

Having experienced the "Uncle Wen" from before, Wen Mingcheng found Gu Yanjing’s cold voice particularly pleasant, so he responded: "Haven’t seen you for a while."

"Yes," Gu Yanjing said, "five days."

He saw him with Qiao Yuxian in D Continent.

Wen Mingcheng: "......"

Qiao Yuxian also chuckled: "Uncle Wen, getting on in years, memory isn’t what it used to be, huh."

"You speak properly," Wen Mingcheng said through gritted teeth.

Qiao Yuxian refused to comply.

Gu Linhai beside finally snapped back and asked tensely: "President Wen, you know each other?"

"Oh," Wen Mingcheng, seeming to suddenly remember others were present, said, "President Gu, I forgot to introduce. This is the president of our Yunzhong Building, Qiao Yuxian. This is her husband, also the head of the Gu Family, Gu Yanjing. Of course, he’s your nephew, very familiar to you."

Everyone at the banquet looked at Qiao Yuxian.

The entire banquet hall seemed to be devoid of sound, even the piano music seemed to disappear.

Gu Yao’s hand hanging by his side tightened.

Gu Linhai suddenly looked at Qiao Yuxian, eyes red, chest heaving.

She is the president of Yunzhong Building!

The mysterious owner behind Yunzhong Building turned out to be her!

Then he... all this time, partnering with Yunzhong Building, had been working with Qiao Yuxian all along.

Then what had he been doing all this time?

Was he being played by Gu Yanjing and Qiao Yuxian all along?

In the end, Gu Yanjing just lost a few projects.

But he collaborated with Yunzhong Building on so many projects, once Yunzhong Building makes a move, they wouldn’t care, but the Qian’an Group would suffer a severe blow.

Gu Linhai’s pupils contracted fiercely again.

The photos of the land with bodies were Yunzhong Building’s doing.

It must have been them!
