The paranoid boss always tries to trick me

Chapter 218 The Truth About the Past

Gu Wanran went to the apartment alone. After finding the house number, she asked the neighbors on the left and right. She only knew that the place would be cleaned every Monday, but it was always empty.

A middle-aged couple next door seemed to have lived there for some years, and they still remembered Jiang Xianlin who used to live here.

"In the past, Mr. Chen and his son lived here. If there is any delicious food, he will bring it to us. If we ask him for help, he never refuses. He is a very good person."

"Then do you know what happened to this family?" Gu Wanran asked.

The couple shook their heads: "I don't know. Later, I only saw his son and a man who looked like a bodyguard coming in and simply packed up a few things before leaving."

"Is that so..." Gu Wanran looked at the closed door and couldn't help frowning.

How should she get in?

"Little girl, do you know this family?" The middle-aged woman asked curiously.

"Probably." Gu Wanran smiled, and used the excuse she had prepared long ago, "My father and Mr. Chen were good friends back then. Later...something happened to Mr. Chen, and they had no contact. Recently, my father fell ill and wanted to see him." Seeing my former friends, I tried to find them."

"Come back on Monday." The middle-aged woman said enthusiastically, "Someone will come to clean on Monday, maybe I can find out something."

"You have lived here for so many years, but you haven't found out anything. If I come here as a stranger, I may not have any clues."

"We don't know Mr. Chen very well. He doesn't want to be disturbed. That's normal. Your father and Mr. Chen are friends, so it must be different."

"Thank you, I'll consider it."

Gu Wanran glanced at the house number, turned and left.

She walked between the corridors and pressed her phone to send a message: "Where are you?"

"downstairs."

Seeing the news, Gu Wanran put away her phone and quietly waited for someone to come.

She is related to Tuo Yuanxia, ​​and she has found a capable lockpicker. Although it is immoral to do so, there is only one chance, and she doesn't want to miss it.

Song Yunrou's mouth is not tight, Jiang Yuechen will know the truth today, so she might as well burn the boat for a while.

The man came quickly and moved lightly, and quickly opened the door for Gu Wanran.

Jing'an Building, fifteenth floor.

Jiang Yuechen walked out of the elevator and slowly walked towards the innermost private room.

Standing at the door, confirming the house number, he knocked on the door patiently.

As soon as there was a very rhythmic knock on the door, the door couldn't wait to be opened from the inside.

"Yue Chen."

Song Yunrou's eyes lit up, and she smiled sweetly.

Jiang Yuechen's face gradually turned cold: "Why are you?"

Song Yunrou smiled and said, "Of course it's me, if not, who else?"

"Where's Gu Wanran?"

"Miss Gu? I don't know."

Song Yunrou pretended to be innocent, blinked lightly, and reached out to grab Jiang Yuechen's arm, "Yuechen, stop standing at the door, I have prepared a surprise for you, come in quickly."

Jiang Yuechen avoided Song Yunrou's arm calmly, and walked away without hesitation, his brows were filled with anger.

... That woman dared to deceive him.

"Yue Chen!"

Song Yunrou hurriedly ran out to stop him, and stretched out his arms to prevent him from going any further, "You've come here, why don't you just come and have lunch with me?"

Jiang Yuechen didn't respond, and he didn't stop. When he walked in front of Song Yunrou, he didn't cast a glance down, but reached out his hand to push her indifferently.

"Yuechen, wait a minute!" Song Yunrou said anxiously, "Don't you want to know why the person you met with was me instead?"

Jiang Yuechen's footsteps paused slightly, and he actually stopped.

A burst of jealousy surged up in Song Yunrou's heart, but she hid it well and invited with a smile, "Come in and sit down. I specially asked the chef to prepare your favorite dishes and two bottles of red wine. Outside is..."

"5 minutes, make it clear."

Song Yunrou's introduction was interrupted by a cold voice.

Song Yunrou lowered her eyelids unwillingly, and then slowly said: "Gu Wanran took the initiative to come to me and wanted to make a deal with me. She said that she could help me ask you out, and I need to help her find out where you used to live when you were a child." .”

Jiang Yuechen's face darkened, "What's the address you told her?"

Song Yunrou gave him a careful look: "...I didn't lie to her, I told her the correct address, which is Qingyuewan Apartment two streets away, 21 on the 2113st floor."

Jiang Yuechen strode forward, almost rushing outside.

"Yue Chen!"

Song Yunrou stomped her feet, looked back at the carefully prepared red wine in the room, and had to catch up.

Qingyue Bay Apartment.

Gu Wanran held up the photo album in his hand in a daze, a turbulent wave rolled up in his heart, and his face was bloodless.

"……how is this possible……"

She muttered to herself, tears fell involuntarily, and there was pain in her chest that she couldn't breathe.

how could this be?

She breathed heavily, and wiped away the tears on the photo album with her hands, trying to see the people on it more clearly.

She was so deaf to any sound that she didn't notice the sound of the apartment door being turned open by a key.

It wasn't until the door of the room was kicked open with a "bang" that Gu Wanran looked at the person belatedly.

……It's him.

There was a burst of despair in Gu Wanran's eyes, he gritted his teeth, unable to make a complete sound.

Jiang Yuechen's eyes fell on the photo album in her hand, and the password box that was opened beside her. His eyes were gloomy, but there was not much oppressive coldness in his eyes.

"why……"

Gu Wanran made a trembling voice: "Why are you doing this to me?"

Jiang Yuechen pursed his lips and said nothing, strode forward to snatch the photo album, threw it in the box, closed the lid, and locked it, all in one go.

"The password... is our days together."

Jiang Yuechen's hands stopped.

"Jiang Yuechen... No, Xu Jiachen, why are you doing this?!"

Gu Wanran hammered the table bitterly, and a red mark appeared on her delicate hand.

"At the beginning, I asked you if you were Xu Jiachen. If you said no, I just assumed that he was really dead. I never thought that you would be the same person."

Gu Wanran's chest kept heaving, tears bursting into embarrassment, "Jiang Yuechen, which one is the real you? The love and tenderness at the beginning were all fake, right? It was a conspiracy for you to get close to me and the Gu family Yeah?"

Jiang Yuechen didn't answer, but just looked at her quietly.

Gu Wanran gritted her teeth, trying to make herself a little more respectable, but there were some things she couldn't control.

"Tell me, have you ever liked me?" There was a bit of anticipation in the trembling voice, even as if grasping a life-saving straw.

She raised her head and looked straight at him with difficulty, the light in her eyes faded little by little, leaving only the last bit of stubbornness, and the ruthless determination not to hit the south wall and not give up.

Jiang Yuechen's Adam's apple rolled, he suppressed a certain emotion surging in his heart, and said coldly: "No."

Gu Wanran was in despair, "...Yes, how could you like me, you are Jiang Yuechen...you are not Jiachen at all, it's all fake, you used it to torture me."

Jiang Yuechen didn't say a word, it was a tacit agreement.

Gu Wanran laughed at himself, rubbed his sore forehead, raised his head to look at Jiang Yuechen, and suddenly slapped him on the face with his hand.

"You owe me more than that, but I don't want to entangle you anymore, so let's do it."

She propped herself up on the table and stood up unsteadily, and floated towards the door with her feet floating.

"Don't leave." Jiang Yuechen stopped her and pulled her back.

"Let me go!" Gu Wanran bit Jiang Yuechen's wrist hard, forcing him to let go, and then stumbled towards the door.

Jiang Yuechen glanced down at the deep tooth marks on his wrist, and a savage look suddenly appeared in his gloomy eyes.

He suddenly turned around, strode over to hold Gu Wanran's hand, pressed her against the wall, gritted his teeth, and suppressed an inexplicable emotion: "It was all forced by your good father, if it wasn't for him, I'm also not interested in playing tricks with a woman like you."

"Jiang Yuechen, sooner or later you will regret it because of your ego."

Gu Wanran looked at him bitterly, "I've said it many times, my father and I didn't do anything, you just don't believe it, if you indulge the real murderer behind the scenes, in the future, you will end up like your father .”

"Shut up!" Jiang Yuechen clamped her neck suddenly, his eyes were ruthless, "Gu Wanran, don't try to run away from me. I want you to pay off all the debts your father owes."

"How do you pay back the debt you owe me?"

Gu Wanran was not afraid in the slightest, and stuck his neck, looking as if he was going to die: "You will pay the price, even if I have nothing to do with you, there will be people like this."

Jiang Yuechen exerted force on his hands, and Gu Wanran suddenly felt short of breath, and couldn't help but groan, but the tears in his eyes were full of unyielding and hatred, and he just stared at him like this.

Just when Gu Wanran was about to faint from suffocation, another person broke into the room.

"Yuechen, you..."

Song Yunrou came in panting. Seeing this scene, she couldn't help being startled, and then a gleam of pleasure flashed in her eyes.

Unexpectedly, Jiang Yuechen suddenly regained his senses, and as soon as he let go of his hand, Gu Wanran fell to the ground and coughed violently.

……What a pity.

Song Yunrou said from the bottom of her heart, her contemptuous gaze lingered on Gu Wanran for a moment, and then she looked at Jiang Yuechen.

She obviously didn't know what was going on at the scene, so she entangled her with a sweet smile, and said coquettishly, "Yuechen, it's rare for us to meet, so why don't you accompany me today? If you don't like the place I chose, then change it. I listen to you."

"By the way, just across the street, there's a nice new restaurant..."

Gu Wanran gradually stopped coughing, raised her hand to wipe away the tears from the corners of her eyes, and ran outside.

This time Jiang Yuechen didn't stop her, she ran out of the apartment smoothly, and ran all the way to the street in a daze, tears streaming down her face again.

What she once regarded as the most beautiful thing in her heart was all shattered today.

The man who was always gentle and patient in his memory overlapped with Jiang Yuechen's extremely indifferent tough face, constantly tormenting Gu Wanran.

She staggered down the bustling street, unable to hear the sounds around her, and didn't know how the people around her looked at her.

She didn't even know where she was going, she just wanted to escape, escape from this place forever.

……Head hurts.

Gu Wanran covered her forehead, under the stimulation of various emotions, she finally couldn't hold on, and fell straight backwards.
