ABCFWGR Chapter 83 Country Bumpkin

Half an hour later.

The duckbill cap arrived at Xiushui Villa.

Following closely behind, the others in the car dragged two safe boxes out of the SUV's trunk.

"Wuwuwu~"

The sound of sobbing came from the safe boxes, one male and one female.

Obviously, they had been gagged.

The duckbill cap kicked one of the safe boxes. "Shut up! If you dare to make another sound, I'll cut off your manhood!"

Soon, the duckbill cap and his companions dragged the two safe boxes to the next-door suite, the most luxurious one in the villa.

Between the two suites was not a wall, but a one-way glass.

In the luxurious suite.

Tan Baofang carefully accompanied Gu Chen. "Mr. Gu, if the He family has offended you, why not let me take care of it for you? Why go through all this trouble?"

"It's not the He family that offended me, it's someone from their family," Gu Chen said lightly.

Isn't that the same thing?

Tan Baofang didn't understand, but whatever Mr. Gu said was what he would do. He didn't want to overstep.

In the next-door suite.

The duckbill cap opened the safe boxes and kicked them over. He Yuan rolled out, still wearing only a bathrobe.

As for the secretary, she only had one more piece of clothing than him, and she was trembling with fear.

"Do you know why we grabbed you?" The duckbill cap grabbed He Yuan's hair and asked.

He Yuan thought to himself, how would I know? He opened his mouth and said, "Everyone, are you here for money or revenge? If it's money, I can give it to you now, but if it's revenge, please make it clear."

He wasn't as panicked as he had imagined; instead, he calmed down.

If he didn't have this courage, he wouldn't have become the current head of the He family.

"We're not here for money or revenge. Someone from your family has offended someone," the duckbill cap said coldly.

He Yuan frowned. "So what do you want to do?"

But he was thinking, who from the He family had offended someone recently? He had no clue.

"We're not going to do much, just teach you a lesson and remind you to be more careful in the future," the duckbill cap said playfully.

"Can you tell me who is behind you, so I can understand better?" He Yuan asked.

"Of course not, but you can think about whether your family has recently acquired someone new," the duckbill cap said.

Acquired someone new?

He Yuan immediately thought of He Xiumei. Could the people in front of him all be hired by the Chen family?

Before he could figure it out, the duckbill cap had already ordered his men to act.

In the luxurious suite next door.

Gu Chen had no more interest in watching. He stood up and said, "Don't be too harsh. The main goal is to remind them."

Tan Baofang got up to see him off. "Understood. Those guys are all my trusted men, and they know how to handle things."

Gu Chen nodded and didn't let him see him off. He left Xiushui Villa through the back door.

Afterwards, Gu Chen went to Fuli Pharmaceutical.

After all, he had promised Liu Hanyan to take up the position of CEO, and he couldn't just let things go without taking responsibility.

"Mr. Gu!"

Several receptionists at the front desk greeted him enthusiastically.

Gu Chen smiled kindly.

When he entered the office, he saw Wu Anqi buried in documents. She was officially the secretary, but she was handling the CEO's duties, which was quite stressful for her.

Because she was so engrossed, she didn't even notice Gu Chen standing behind her for a long time.

In the end, Gu Chen coughed a few times before she finally reacted.

"Oh? When did you arrive?" Wu Anqi exclaimed with surprise.

She didn't know about the situation with the Chen family.

"I've been here for a while, but I saw you were deeply focused, so I didn't want to disturb you," Gu Chen smiled.

"Hehe, sit down quickly. Let me report to you about the work," Wu Anqi said, pulling him to a seat.

Then, she opened the files on the computer and began to introduce them to Gu Chen.

There was only one chair, so Gu Chen sat while she had to stand. In order to give Gu Chen a better view, she had to stand closer.

Although it wasn't intentional, being so close, occasionally their skin would touch.

From a distance, it looked very ambiguous.

Someone who didn't know might think it was the boss taking advantage of the subordinate, or the subordinate trying to seduce the boss.

Gu Chen was slightly distracted by the faint scent emanating from her body, and he couldn't focus on the documents.

"Alright, that's my progress over the past few days. Why is your face turning red? Are you feeling unwell somewhere?" Wu Anqi quickly reached out to touch Gu Chen's forehead and murmured, "But you don't have a fever."

"It's hot," Gu Chen brushed her hand away and replied casually.

"Hot?" Wu Anqi couldn't understand. They had the air conditioning on, so how could he be feeling hot?

"It's almost lunchtime. Let me treat you to a meal as a reward for your hard work," Gu Chen changed the subject.

Wu Anqi rubbed her stomach. She hadn't eaten breakfast because she was on a diet, and she was indeed a little hungry.

More importantly, she could have lunch with Gu Chen to build rapport. She couldn't miss this opportunity.

"Okay, but it has to be a big meal!" Wu Anqi couldn't hide her excitement.

The two of them walked out of the company together and got into their respective cars at the parking lot.

"Anqi!"

At this moment, someone suddenly called out from behind.

Wu Anqi subconsciously turned around and saw a familiar face. "Sun Zhian, didn't you go abroad? Why are you here?"

Sun Zhian, dressed in a suit and meticulously groomed, exuded an air of being well-traveled. "I'm back to start a business. I didn't expect to run into you here. Who is this next to you?"

"This is Gu Chen, my current boss," Wu Anqi didn't want to reveal too much privacy and simply introduced him.

At the mention of this, Sun Zhian nodded slightly, then looked Gu Chen up and down, with a hint of disdain and hostility in his eyes. He then extended his hand. "Hello, Sun Zhian."

He thought he was hiding it well, but he didn't realize that he couldn't deceive Gu Chen at all.

Gu Chen remained composed and shook his hand. "Hello."

After retracting his hand, Sun Zhian discreetly wiped it on his clothes, as if he was very disgusted, but he shook hands with Gu Chen just to save face in front of Wu Anqi.

Sun Zhian asked, "By the way, where are you two going?"

"It's almost lunchtime, so we're going to have lunch," Wu Anqi replied matter-of-factly.

"That's a coincidence. I was just about to have lunch too. Let's go together. Anqi, we haven't seen each other in a long time as old classmates. You shouldn't refuse me, right?" Sun Zhian said.

Since he had already said so much, what could Wu Anqi say?

Wu Anqi looked embarrassed and glanced at Gu Chen, hoping he would refuse. She didn't want their time alone to be ruined by someone else.

"Then Mr. Gu can join us too. Don't worry, you don't need to pay. I'll treat you," Sun Zhian offered generously.

It sounded like he was inviting Gu Chen to a meal for free.

Upon hearing this, even Wu Anqi couldn't help but frown. She didn't like his tone at all.

Of course, Gu Chen noticed. Sun Zhian wanted to show off in front of Wu Anqi, so Gu Chen decided to indulge him.

"Alright, but I'll choose the place," Gu Chen said.

"No problem, just pick an expensive one. Being too cheap will ruin my image," Sun Zhian joked.

Although he smiled on the surface, he cursed Gu Chen as a country bumpkin in his heart. But it didn't matter; it just gave him a chance to show off his wealth in front of Wu Anqi.

Even though this country bumpkin was taking advantage of him, it still made him a little unhappy.
