Siheyuan: I just came across and wanted to chase me away

Chapter 770 Liu Guangtian's Treat

Liu Guangtian was in a good mood after getting Gu Nan's agreement, and he turned around and left happily. Gu Nan looked at his departing back, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, revealing a barely perceptible smile, and then turned around and returned home. Ran Qiuye saw Gu Nan coming back and asked with a puzzled look on his face: "Gu Nan, why did you agree to have dinner with Liu Guangtian? Are you planning to help him stay in the steel mill when the time comes?"

Gu Nan shook his head gently and explained patiently: "This Liu Guangtian, you don't need to think about it to know that he has something to hide. But if I don't take the bait, how can I know what they are planning behind the scenes? So, I can only follow his intentions and see what they are up to."

After hearing what Gu Nan said, Ran Qiuye was still a little worried. She looked at Gu Nan with concern in her eyes: "Then you must be very careful. People's hearts are hidden in their stomachs. Who knows what tricks they will play."

Gu Nan looked at Ran Qiuye's worried expression and couldn't help but smile. He reached out and gently patted her shoulder and said, "You, why don't you even believe me? Don't you know my ability? Don't worry, I know what I am capable of."

Ran Qiuye smiled helplessly and said angrily: "You always love taking risks, and you always make people nervous. You must be careful. After all, people's hearts are sinister. You must know this."

Gu Nan smiled and nodded, saying, "Okay, I understand this. By the way, have you convinced our mother?"

Ran Qiuye looked at Gu Nan with a smile, her eyes full of joy and relief, and said, "I put in a lot of effort and went through a lot of hardships, and finally convinced mom, and she agreed to go to Xianghe."

Gu Nan nodded with satisfaction, his eyes showing determination, and said to Ran Qiuye seriously: "Qiuye, don't worry, after things here are properly completed, I will definitely bring my parents back in style."

Ran Qiuye had always believed in Gu Nan. She nodded gently, her eyes full of trust in Gu Nan. Gu Nan looked at Ran Qiuye, as if he suddenly remembered something, and said, "By the way, find a time to tell Lou Xiaoe that Xu Damao has taken the bait."

After hearing this, Ran Qiuye responded, "I understand. Don't worry, I'll go talk to Sister Xiao'e tomorrow."

As night fell, the courtyard gradually became quiet. Liu Guangtian got up to go to the toilet at night. As soon as he walked out of the door, he was seen by He Yuzhu who was passing by. He Yuzhu's heart moved, and he immediately walked forward and asked softly: "Guangtian, what's going on? Did you go to talk to Gu Nan about that matter and did he agree?"

Liu Guangtian subconsciously looked in the direction of Gu Nan's house, with a hint of worry in his eyes, and said, "Brother Zhuzi, let's go out and talk. It will be bad if Gu Nan hears it."

He Yuzhu understood and said with a smile: "Not bad, you are thoughtful. Come to my house, I have some wine, we can have a good drink and chat while we drink."

Liu Guangtian thought to himself that although he knew that He Yuzhu had always hated Gu Nan, he never thought that He Yuzhu would be willing to spend so much money to achieve his goal. He had already treated him to a second drink. After hesitating for a moment, Liu Guangtian followed He Yuzhu to his home.

However, all of this was seen by Gu Nan who was standing in front of his window. Gu Nan's mouth corners slightly raised, revealing a meaningful smile, and whispered to himself: "Interesting, it seems that He Yuzhu is behind this matter. Since they want to play, then play with them a little bigger, and don't back down so quickly when the time comes."

At this time, Ran Qiuye came out from the inner room and saw Gu Nan standing in front of the window in a daze. She asked curiously, "What are you looking at there? You look so absorbed in it."

Gu Nan came back to his senses and said with a smile: "Nothing, just watching the excitement and the show. Well, you have been watching the children for a whole day, you are tired, go to bed early."

Ran Qiuye didn't think much about it, thinking that Gu Nan was joking, so he responded and turned around to rest.

On the other side, Liu Guangtian followed He Yuzhu to his house and the two sat down. Liu Guangtian told Gu Nan everything he said and asked with a puzzled look on his face: "Brother Zhuzi, why did Gu Nan agree? I really don't understand."

He Yuzhu poured a glass of wine for himself and Liu Guangtian respectively, picked up the glass, took a sip, and said with a disdainful smile on his face: "Gu Nan is a person who likes to take advantage of others, you just know this? He must be thinking of getting some benefits from you, so he pretended to agree. Humph, how can I not understand his thoughts?"

After listening to He Yuzhu's words, Liu Guangtian suddenly had an idea. He thought to himself that if Gu Nan really agreed to keep him in the steel mill, he might as well tell him everything about He Yuzhu's visit to him, and maybe he could sell himself well in front of Gu Nan.

But if Gu Nan ate his meal and accepted his gift but refused to help, he would just act according to the original plan and Gu Nan would not be able to do anything to him then.

Thinking of this, a hint of cunning flashed in Liu Guangtian's eyes. He picked up the wine glass and said to He Yuzhu: "Brother Zhuzi, thank you for your good wishes. I hope everything goes well. Come, let's drink." He Yuzhu looked at Liu Guangtian, a barely perceptible pride flashed in his eyes. The two clinked glasses and drank it all in one gulp. A subtle and tense atmosphere filled the room.

He Yuzhu turned his head slightly, looked at Lu Jia with a smile in his eyes, and nodded slightly without leaving a trace, using this subtle movement to signal Lu Jia that their carefully planned plan had successfully taken a key step.

Liu Guangtian was particularly restrained when drinking tonight, and did not get drunk as usual. He knew very well that he would invite Gu Nan to drink tomorrow. If he drank too much today and was still drunk tomorrow, how could he deal with Gu Nan and smoothly carry out the plan? Therefore, even with the wine in front of him, he forced himself to drink only a few glasses.

After Liu Guangtian said goodbye and left, Lu Jia frowned slightly, with a hint of worry in his eyes. He looked at He Yuzhu and said, "Brother Zhuzi, don't you think Gu Nan agreed too readily? This is not in line with his usual style. I always feel that there is something strange about it."

He Yuzhu looked at Lu Jia with a confident smile on his face and asked, "What do you want to say? Don't think about it here, just say it directly."

Lu Jia shook her head slightly and said seriously, "What I mean is, could this be a trap set by Gu Nan on purpose for Liu Guangtian? He is a man of deep thoughts and would not agree to help so easily for no reason. I'm afraid there is something fishy going on here."
