Chapter 19 Mr. Zhou definitely doesn’t have you in his heart

Chapter 19 Mr. Zhou definitely doesn’t have you in his heart

Gu Xiyan suppressed the chaotic emotions in her heart and said, "I heard something."

She didn't dare to look at Zhou Mu for fear that Zhou Mu would see that she was guilty.

"This person disrupted the charcoal market price and alarmed the government and the public. He is bold and ambitious."

Every time Zhou Mu said a word, Gu Xiyan's heart beat faster.

She really didn't know it would be like this. Unintentionally, she remembered that something like this happened in her previous life. It was Su Ho who spread rumors that this year was a severe winter, which happened to happen in August of the 11th year of Chengde.

She remembered this and took action before Su Ho. She thought she might make money, so she planned to use this opportunity to try her skills and let Su Ho return empty-handed. She didn't want to cause such a big sensation and alert the court.

Obviously, there wasn't such a big battle in the previous life, and Su Ho didn't earn that much. Was it because Su Mei bought too much Yin Shuang Charcoal, or was it because she temporarily added a condition that she wouldn't sell it "not exceeding a hundred catties" that caused the price to skyrocket?

unknown.

"Perhaps that person just hit him accidentally?" Gu Xiyan answered weakly.

Hearing this, Zhou Mu raised the corner of his lips slightly: "If he can make tens of thousands of taels of silver in just ten days if he makes a mistake, then this person's financial fortune is very good. Girl, do you think it is possible?"

Gu Xiyan was silent. This question was too dangerous and she didn't dare to answer it randomly.

She was restless and still thinking about making an appointment with Su Mei.

Zhou Mu and Hu Bu intervened in the matter. Not only did she panic, Su Mei must have panicked too. Although she thought she was making mistakes and had not committed a crime, she still felt guilty when facing Zhou Mu.

At this time, she also wanted to understand why Zhou Mu came to Jixiang Tower to dine. It was simply because the place was crowded with people, and the rich and powerful liked to come to Jixiang Tower to eat and drink.

But this time they mainly sold Yin Shuang Charcoal, and most of their customers were from wealthy families, so Zhou Mu was at Jixiang Building, and without him needing to specifically inquire about information, someone would just spit out the information they knew.

She had a hard time eating this meal.

"Do girls eat so little?" Zhou Mu observed Gu Xiyan for a while and found that she ate as little as cat food. No wonder she was so thin.

Gu Xiyan really had no appetite, so she made an excuse: "I ate too much for breakfast, and I'm not hungry yet. Master, I'm full."

Zhou Mu looked at her indifferently and said, "Eat more."

Under Zhou Mu's gaze, Gu Xiyan bit the bullet and ate some more.

She put down the bowl and chopsticks and said, "I've been out for too long, sir. I want to go back."

"Zhiyuan, you go see Miss Gu off." Zhou Mu didn't try to hold him back.

Gu Xiyan breathed a sigh of relief, put on her curtain hat, and left the private room.

Qi Zhiyuan sent Gu Xiyan downstairs, saw her getting on the carriage, and then returned to Zhou Mu to resume his life.

Zhou Mu was watching the carriage Gu Xiyan was riding downstairs start up. She said she wanted to go back, so why was she going in the opposite direction to Wanqinghou Mansion?

When talking to Gu Xiyan before, he always felt that she seemed to have something on her mind, but he didn't feel like asking too many questions.

Watching Gu Xiyan's carriage go away, Zhou Mu thought that he should arrange a meeting with Gu Xiyan as soon as possible.

Half an hour later, in the northern suburbs of the capital, Gu Xiyan saw Su Mei.

As soon as Su Mei saw her, she pulled her towards the hillside.

It was autumn, a season of depression for all things, and the weeds on the hillside were wilting and lifeless.

Only a few sparse wildflowers are struggling to bloom their buds.

Su Mei and Gu Xiyan chose a seat with a good viewing angle and sat down, and they remained silent for a long time.

Then they looked at each other and laughed loudly.

In the end, Su Mei smiled and fell on Gu Xiyan's shoulders. The laughter gradually stopped, and she asked seriously: "Did you break the news that this year will be a cold winter?"

Gu Xiyan shook her head: "It wasn't me, it was Su Ho. I learned about Su Ho's plan by chance, so I took action before her."

In fact, although Soho also implemented this plan in the previous life, it did not cause much trouble.

"It's a pity that the Ministry of Finance has been alerted this time, and the person who is really investigating this matter is a young master named Zhou Mu. I just met Mr. Zhou by chance at Jixiang Tower. Speaking of which, I have some friendship with him. If he knew what was going on behind the scenes,

I'm scheming..." Gu Xiyan's words faded away.

"We haven't done anything harmful to nature, so what are we afraid of? Besides, it's me who's doing the dirty work, and no one knows you are behind me. Besides, we haven't bought or sold by force, so you don't have to be afraid of Mr. Zhou." Su

She patted Gu Xiyan's shoulder with her eyebrows.

"I'm either afraid, or I don't want him to know that I did this, and I don't want to be hated by him." Gu Xiyan said calmly.

When Su Mei heard this, she looked sideways: "Xiyan, do you like that Mr. Zhou?"

Gu Xiyan glared at her angrily: "It's not what you think. I have a long history with Mr. Zhou, and I regard him as a benefactor, confidant and friend. By the way, Mr. Zhou also wants to play matchmaker with me."

Su Mei listened carefully, and after a while she said: "Then I understand, no matter whether you have Mr. Zhou in your heart or not, Mr. Zhou definitely does not have you in his heart."

"Originally, he only has family and country in his heart, so how could he pretend to be a woman?" After a pause, Gu Xiyan added: "Now, his political career is about to begin, and he will soon enter the family.

Are you on duty?"

Su Mei felt that Gu Xiyan's tone was so different when she mentioned Zhou Mu, but she also said that there was no love between a man and a woman for Zhou Mu.

Zhou Mu was also surprised that when faced with such a beautiful Xi Yan, he was not moved and instead found a man for Xi Yan.
