1271, the most embarrassing transaction in history
"It's not like that. It's because my parents are going to discuss business, so they asked me to dress more formally. This way I will have a stronger aura."
Gu Chen looked forward and said, "As I said, my parents are also dressed very formally today."
"Okay." Feeling that she was happy for nothing, Lu Weiwei lowered her head in despair.
Sure enough, this was the correct way for Junior Brother Gu to open his mind. He was overthinking it.
Over there, Gu Baichuan and Xiao Xiaofang also saw the two of them playing there, so they hurried over to say hello.
"Weiwei, have you been waiting for a long time?" Xiao Xiaofang said.
Lu Weiwei raised her head and suddenly seemed to have a different face. She forced a smile and said: "No, auntie, I just got here."
Looking up and down Xiao Xiaofang's clothes, Lu Weiwei quickly praised: "Auntie, your dress is so beautiful, it looks particularly elegant on you."
"Really?" When Xiao Xiaofang heard this, she immediately felt happy and humbly said: "Oh, I don't know what to wear when I go shopping with you, so I just picked something casually, eh?"
Looking Lu Weiwei up and down, Xiao Xiaofang also said with admiration: "Your dress is very beautiful. It matches my Gu Chen's dress exactly. Well, it's pretty good."
"Really?" Although Lu Weiwei knew that these were Xiao Xiaofang's polite words, she felt comfortable hearing them.
So Xiao Xiaofang pulled her husband Gu Baichuan over again: "Husband, do you think I am worthy or not?"
"It's a good match, I think it's a good match." Looking at Gu Chen and Lu Weiwei in front of him, Gu Baichuan was not interested in drinking.
After receiving the approval of the two elders, Lu Weiwei also grinned: "I don't know, aunt and uncle, do you have something to do today, right?"
After all, Gu Chen said it just now, so of course he knew it.
But at this time, Xiao Xiaofang felt a little embarrassed.
Thinking that my son Gu Chen would tell the truth so quickly, I felt a little embarrassed.
So Xiao Xiaofang said again: "Actually, I originally wanted to invite you to my house to sit down and have a meal or something, but then because there was business to discuss here, you happened to make an appointment with my family Gu Chen."
"Let me think about it, why don't I come with you? It just so happens that we go shopping outside, have a meal or something."
"So that's it?" After understanding the specific situation, Lu Weiwei didn't seem as angry as before.
It felt like Gu Chen just said something if he had something to say. If it were any other boy, it would be as if his mouth was covered with honey, and he would have to say yes even if he didn't.
But it was because of Gu Chen's upright character that Lu Weiwei admired him quite a lot.
After all, if I didn’t know, I would have thought that Gu Chen was going on a blind date.
Thinking of this, Lu Weiwei felt secretly happy.
After everyone briefly joked at the entrance of the International Plaza, they all put on masks and scanned the health code to enter.
After that, everyone went directly to the fifth floor.
The fifth floor is the food area of the mall, and it is also the most popular food check-in place in Jiangnan City, where many domestic internet celebrity shops are gathered.
And the variety of food here is so varied that it’s a bit overwhelming just looking at it.
"This should be the right place." Xiao Xiaofang confirmed as she looked at the restaurant in front of her.
Since it is not the peak dining period yet, the flow of people is not very large.
Many store employees are cleaning and preparing ingredients.
Gu Baichuan squinted and looked left and right, and then said with satisfaction: "The location is not bad, not far from the elevator and on the main road."
"Don't say that during the negotiations later," Xiao Xiaofang warned.
Gu Baichuan made an "OK" gesture, indicating that there was no problem.
At this moment, a middle-aged woman sitting at the door of the store seemed to have noticed everyone, so she stood up and took the initiative to walk to the door.
"Excuse me...are you Sister Xiao?" the middle-aged woman asked.
Xiao Xiaofang grinned, pointed at the middle-aged woman and asked, "Are you Xiaomei?"
"Yes, yes, I've been waiting for you for a long time." Looking at the Gu family's scene, I suddenly felt quite impressive.
Then she glanced at Gu Chen and Lu Weiwei, and Zhao Mei also grinned: "You are the whole family, you even brought your son and daughter-in-law?"
"I..." Lu Weiwei was about to refute, but since the other party said so, why should she refute? Looking for embarrassment?
So he immediately shut up again.
Xiao Xiaofang smiled faintly: "Yes, the whole family is mobilized."
Glancing at the store in front of her, Xiao Xiaofang smiled lightly and said, "Is this your store?"
"That's right, the store is mine and is currently leased to this restaurant. The lease term is still 2 months away," Zhao Mei said.
"Well, it's pretty good." Xiao Xiaofang didn't show any particular liking, she just smiled in agreement.
Seeing that everyone was standing awkwardly, Zhao Mei immediately suggested: "How about we go in and talk?"
"Okay." Gu Baichuan said humbly.
Afterwards, a group of us came to the store and found a good seat to sit down first.
The clerk immediately put away a few drinks.
Looking at the decoration of the store, Zhao Mei also said with emotion: "This store has a good business, but the boss doesn't have that much cash, so he only rents it and does not buy it."
"If my family hadn't really been waiting for money, I would never have sold this location."
"Xiaomei, what happened at home?" Although they had already communicated on the phone, Xiao Xiaofang still asked with concern.
Zhao Mei waved her hand: "My husband is sick and has mental problems, which cost a lot of money. I have no choice but to stay at home to take care of him, and I don't go to work."
"In the past, I thought I would have a good store and just collect rent every month, but now it seems that this is not possible at all."
"When you need money, this store is not your trust."
Glancing up at Xiao Xiaofang and Gu Baichuan, Zhao Mei immediately changed her tone and said, "But then again, Sister Xiao's family is also in business, and I heard that the business is quite big."
"That's what they are bragging about." Xiao Xiaofang drank her drink and smiled teasingly: "It's not like you don't know that the sisters in my dance team like to brag when they have nothing to do."
"It's good. Sister Xiao still has time to dance and develop hobbies, but not like me." Zhao Mei's tone was full of envy as she spoke.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Xiao Xiaofang said indifferently: "It means exercising, you can't just sit all the time. Anyway, after all, dancing is just a hobby."
"Does Boss Gu have any hobbies?" Zhao Mei immediately turned her attention to Gu Baichuan again.
Gu Baichuan smiled faintly: "I also like dancing. I was the first to start dancing in our family. Later I practiced Tai Chi. I am quite popular in the Tai Chi circle in Jiangnan City."
"Very good." Looking at the happy family in front of her, Zhao Mei was quite envious.
So he turned his attention to Gu Chen and Lu Weiwei.
Seeing that Gu Chen had a handsome face and was somewhat similar to Xiao Xiaofang and Gu Baichuan, he asked: "Then this should be your young master, he looks really talented."
"Thank you, that's what everyone said." Seeing Zhao Mei praising her son, Xiao Xiaofang was naturally happy to listen.
Then, Zhao Mei continued to ask: "Then this should be your daughter-in-law, right?"
"Uh... no, I'm Gu Chen's colleague." Lu Weiwei also felt quite embarrassed.
I feel like if I didn't make it clear just now, forget it. If I still pretend that nothing is wrong now, I will look very embarrassed.
So he took the initiative to reveal his identity.
Zhao Mei looked at the two of them and said understandingly: "That's it from now on."
Lu Weiwei glanced at Gu Chen and saw that Gu Chen's face was calm, so she thought to herself, why don't you give me some reaction?
At this time, Gu Chen also noticed that Lu Weiwei was staring at him, so he grinned, but didn't say much.
"I wonder what your son's hobbies are?" Zhao Mei was also curious as she thought that the Gu family had a wide range of hobbies.
Gu Chen said directly: "I like solving crimes, and I am also very interested in autopsies, poison testing, etc."
Gu Chen is a down-to-earth person. When asked by his elders, he will tell the truth.
Zhao Mei was stunned on the spot, her head turned towards Xiao Xiaofang mechanically, and she said with a wry smile: "You...your son turns out to be a policeman?"
"Yes, both of them." Xiao Xiaofang nodded silently.
"It's...very good. If my son was as good as your son, I would wake up laughing even when I sleep."
When Zhao Mei mentioned this, she also sighed quietly.
Gu Chen exclaimed: "What's wrong, auntie? Are you worried?"
"No...no?" Zhao Mei shook her head and tried to calm down.
Gu Chen said directly: "You must be in a hurry to go out, right? And it can be seen that you attach great importance to this transaction. You must have just arrived, and you must have hurriedly handled family affairs before rushing to the scene.
of."
After the words fell, Zhao Mei chuckled: "How do you know?"
"Your clothes, the tags haven't been cut off yet, they must have been bought in a hurry from the women's clothing area on the third floor for this transaction, because when I was going upstairs, I found women's clothes from a store next to the elevator, the same as yours.
are exactly the same.”
"Uh..." Seeing Gu Chen's careful observation, Zhao Mei was also quite surprised.
However, Gu Chen did not stop reasoning and continued: "You also bought your pair of shoes at the women's shoe counter on the first floor, and at the store next to the elevator."
"These shoes are very clean, they don't look like they have been out and about, and they still have the smell of new shoes."
Seeing Zhao Mei stunned, Gu Chen added: "And just now I discovered that there was a pair of discarded black leather shoes in the trash can next to the elevator handrail. They were placed on the top of the trash can. They must have been discarded not long ago."
"There are not many people shopping in the mall during this time in the morning, and there are very few people doing business, so that pair of shoes is most likely the same pair you wore into the mall."
"this……"
After being told by Gu Chen, Zhao Mei fell into self-doubt again.
But at this moment, Gu Chen tilted his head slightly to the right, then straightened his body and said: "Your eyebrows are not symmetrical. Maybe you are in a hurry, so you should have been in the store just now while waiting for us to come over."
Start putting on makeup."
After he finished speaking, Gu Chen picked up a makeup mirror from the seat next to him, then handed it to Zhao Mei and said, "This should be your makeup mirror. You might have been sitting next to me just now."
"Because the salespersons in the store are all working and the restaurant has been cleaned up, it shouldn't be anything left by customers."
"Uh." Zhao Mei was stunned as she took the makeup mirror from Gu Chen.
Then he turned to look at Xiao Xiaofang and asked weakly: "Xiao...Sister Xiao, you...is your son usually like this?"
"Uh..." When asked by Zhao Mei, Xiao Xiaofang was immediately embarrassed and quickly explained: "I... my son is very concerned about everything around him because of his work habits."
"I didn't even pay attention to these women's shoes, clothing tags, etc. I didn't expect this kid to look at them so carefully."
Glancing at Gu Chen, Xiao Xiaofang also warned and said: "Son, stop talking, I'm scaring your Aunt Zhao Mei."
"It's okay, it's okay." Seeing Xiao Xiaofang starting to blame Gu Chen, Zhao Mei also smiled and said, "I really didn't expect that all my actions this morning could be seen through by Gu Chen without reservation."
Shaking her head, Zhao Mei also smiled bitterly and said: "It seems that you are really good as police officers. There really is no secret at all in front of you."
"Thank you." Gu Chen also smiled faintly, and then glanced at Lu Weiwei beside him.
Lu Weiwei was already used to it and secretly gave a thumbs up.
After all, this is Gu Chen's normal attribute.
Regardless of work or life, always remain highly vigilant.
Seeing that the atmosphere had eased, Zhao Mei continued to ask teasingly: "Gu Chen, do you see anything else?"
"Well...can I really say it?" Gu Chen was also hesitating, feeling whether he should say it or not.
Xiao Xiaofang patted Gu Chen on the shoulder and said angrily: "Okay, that's it. Your Aunt Zhao is here to talk to me about the transfer of the store today, not to be your interrogation target."
"Yes, Gu Chen. Work is work and life is life. Don't bring the same routine you did at the police station here. You will make Aunt Zhao very uncomfortable."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Seeing that Zhao Mei was already very embarrassed, Gu Baichuan also hurriedly came to the rescue.
However, it was embarrassing. Zhao Mei finally saw how powerful Gu Chen was just now.
But just now, Gu Chen vaguely seemed to have discovered something else, but he was just hesitating.
Therefore, Zhao Mei also waved her hands and said with a slight smile: "Gu Chen, it's okay to just say it. We are all our own people, there is nothing bad to say."
Lying on the seat, Zhao Mei also spread her hands and said: "Then do you see anything else?"
"Do you really want to say it?" Gu Chen reminded her again and again, but seemed unwilling to mention it.
But when Gu Chen said this, the atmosphere at the scene became weird.
Zhao Mei's face turned green. It felt like you had already said that. If I didn't let you say it, wouldn't it look like I was being disrespectful?
After thinking about it, Zhao Mei also forced a smile and said: "You can just say it's okay. In fact, Aunt Zhao also wants to know how many secrets you can see from me."
"Okay, this is what you asked me to say, so don't be offended if I say it." By saying these words, Gu Chen got himself a free card in advance.
After all, rashly commenting on elders was indeed a bit impolite in Gu Chen's opinion.
Especially since Zhao Mei is a friend of a teammate of Mom's dance team, Gu Chen is naturally a little taboo.
But when the words came to his lips, they were not pleasant to say. Gu Chen also smiled and asked directly: "Excuse me, Aunt Zhao, before you went out, did you have any conflicts with your uncle at home?"
"Um……"
When asked by Gu Chen, Zhao Mei immediately sat up straight and seemed to be shocked.
"How do you say this?" Gu Baichuan couldn't understand. How did his son Gu Chen figure it out?
Xiao Xiaofang also looked confused, kicked Gu Chen and said, "Son, what are you talking about?"
"I'm not talking nonsense." Gu Chen pointed at Zhao Mei's neck and said, "There are a few bruises on Aunt Zhao's neck. Judging from the shape, they should look like palms."
"And judging from the color of the bruise, it should be a new injury, and it won't last too long. If calculated based on time, it should be shortly before Aunt Zhao went out."
Glancing at Xiao Xiaofang, Gu Chen asked: "Mom, where does Aunt Zhao's family live?"
"Just... nearby, nearby, right?" Xiao Xiaofang turned her head and glanced at Zhao Mei.
Zhao Mei also had a stiff smile and took the initiative to reply: "It's not far, just in the community opposite the International Plaza."
"Then it should only take you about 5 minutes to walk here, plus shopping for clothes, shoes, and makeup."
Gu Chen did a simple mental calculation, then raised his head and said, "If you buy clothes and shoes normally, it may take a lot of time, but if you are in a hurry, I will give it 40 minutes to an hour."
"Based on the bruises on your neck, the time of injury should be about 1 hour and 15 minutes."
Gu Chen lowered his head and glanced at his watch, and then said: "That's the injury sustained around 8 a.m."
"Crack!"
Just as Gu Chen finished speaking, Zhao Mei accidentally knocked the drink on the table to the ground because she was too focused.
"Oops, the drink spilled, waiter, help me mop it up."
Seeing the drink spilled at Zhao Mei's feet and the new shoes everywhere, Xiao Xiaofang quickly shouted to the cashier.
A waitress immediately came over with a mop to clean up.
At this moment, Zhao Mei was sitting on pins and needles.
I feel like if I hadn't talked too much just now and had to ask Gu Chen to reason, there wouldn't have been so many things.
But the bruises on my neck are actually not easy to spot if you don’t look carefully.
Thinking that I had kept my hair down before, I just welcomed everyone into the store and after sitting down, I pushed my hair back.
Unexpectedly, this simple action was accurately captured by Gu Chen, who didn't even deliberately stare at him.
Thinking of this, Zhao Mei suddenly thought deeply and became frightened.
Seeing this family in suits and ties coming to discuss a deal, Guang Guchen's reasoning, among other things, already made him feel timid.
Fortunately, the drink was spilled, interrupting everyone's original thoughts.
The waiter came to clean up, immediately giving Zhao Mei a chance to relieve her embarrassment.
Although Xiao Xiaofang and Gu Baichuan saw it, how did Zhao Mei get injured before going out? Although they want to know this.
But after all, there are occasions.
In this situation, whoever talks about it will be embarrassed.
Instead of doing this, it is better to pretend that nothing happened and go directly to the topic to discuss the transaction.
After all, it is not a question of aura or not, but a question of whether Zhao Mei is willing to trade now.
If Zhao Mei is scared away, who will she buy a store from?
