Going down the stairs, I met Xiao Cui carrying a water ghost.
"Good morning, Miss."
Xiaocui said hello.
Gu Linglong chuckled: "Look carefully, who am I?"
Xiaocui looked up and down for a while and said hesitantly: "You are the second young lady..."
Gu Linglong was very satisfied.
Xiaocui, who had been getting along day and night, recognized the wrong person, let alone someone else.
When she came to the front hall, she followed her sister's example and walked slowly to the dining table.
Mrs. Gu glanced at it and said, "Has Qingcheng gotten up?"
"Well, she'll be down soon... Mother, how do you know I'm not Qingcheng?" Gu Linglong couldn't help but ask.
Mrs. Gu smiled slightly: "When you get married and have children in the future, you will know the reason."
Gu Linglong didn't give up and asked: "Is it because of the footsteps?"
Gu Qingcheng walks fast, but Gu Linglong is just the opposite.
Mrs. Gu said: "It's not just the footsteps. The older you two get, the more obvious the difference becomes. What's more, how can a mother not recognize her own child?"
While talking, footsteps came from the stairs.
After a while, Gu Qingcheng opened the door and walked in, pulled out a chair and sat down, picked up the fried dough sticks and took a big bite, saying vaguely: "Good morning, mother."
Mrs. Gu frowned: "Try not to talk when eating..."
"Don't talk when you eat, don't talk when you sleep. No matter what the occasion, you must maintain your ladylike demeanor..."
Gu Qingcheng smiled: "Let Linglong be the lady, I like to be free."
"There's really nothing I can do about you..." Mrs. Gu sighed helplessly.
Gu Linglong said from the side: "I'm going to work."
Gu Qingcheng said: "Linglong, come back early after work, and let's go to Longhua Airport together to welcome our father back with honor!"
"Abuse of bad words!"
"Hey, you're such a good Gu Linglong. Once you get the clothes, you won't recognize the person after you fall out."
"I'll return it to you tomorrow!"
"I……"
Without waiting for Gu Qingcheng to reply, Gu Linglong quickly closed the door with a bang.
A white bicycle is parked at the door.
Gu Linglong thought for a moment, then got on her bicycle and left the Gu mansion.
In a black car on the street, Sugawara Eda was sitting in the back seat of the car, holding a miniature spyglass in his hand.
The telescope was pointed at Gu Mansion and Gu Linglong who was riding out.
In addition to the driver, there were two men in gray suits in the car. They were both agents of the Special Division.
"Captain Sugawara, that one just now..."
"That's Gu Qingcheng, don't worry about her. Our target is Gu Linglong."
"yes."
"Be prepared and look for opportunities to take action!"
"yes."
Gu Linglong has a quiet personality and a simple and regular schedule. She commutes between Gu's residence and the city hall at two o'clock every day.
In Sugawara's opinion, after following him for so long, it's time to take action!
…
8:20 am.
Gu Mangguan's car drove towards the British Concession.
"Qingcheng, why are you wearing exquisite clothes?"
"Just wear it and play."
"well……"
Mrs. Gu sighed softly.
"Mother, what's wrong with you?" Gu Qingcheng asked.
"fine."
"I sighed and said it was okay..." Gu Qingcheng muttered.
Mrs. Gu said: "Qingcheng, you are a sister. When you are a sister, you should act like a sister. You should pay more attention to Linglong in the future."
Gu Qingcheng rolled his eyes and said with a smile: "Mother, please clarify what kind of care you are referring to?"
"Of course it's Linglong's marriage."
"Difficult to handle."
"Why do you say that?"
"The City Hall Telegraph Virgins have many children, so they are famous for dating. As far as I know, within the City Hall, there are at least a dozen people who are pursuing Linglong, and they are all in good condition. Linglong is not interested in even one of them.
"
"Why have I never heard you mention this matter?"
"Linglong didn't let me say it."
"continue."
"Continue with what?" Gu Qingcheng pretended to be confused.
Mrs. Gu glared at her: "Asking even though you know it!"
Gu Qingcheng thought for a while and said: "I think there is a person who is quite suitable for Linglong..."
"Who?" Mrs. Gu asked eagerly.
"Yu Rong's brother, Chen Huaibu."
"I heard Yu Rong mention once that Huaibu was studying in France..."
"came back."
"came back?"
"Well, I arrived in Shanghai yesterday afternoon."
"This Linglong, don't tell me anything!"
"Do you still have an impression of Chen Huaibu?"
Mrs. Gu smiled slightly: "Of course. Three years ago, Huaibu came to the house once. He spoke and behaved well, um, very good."
"You think that's good too?"
"At least the first impression is not bad."
Gu Qingcheng glanced at the driver, leaned into Mrs. Gu's ear, and said in a low voice: "According to unreliable sources, Chen Huaibu likes Linglong!"
Mrs. Gu frowned: "Who are the unreliable people?"
"Yu Rong."
"How did she become unreliable?"
"She said that it can be seen from her eyes that Chen Huaibu likes Linglong. It is a subjective guess without evidence, so it can only be judged as unreliable."
Mrs. Gu smiled and said: "After marrying a detective, I even learned the tone of voice."
"Not married yet..."
Gu Qingcheng rarely has a shy side.
Mrs. Gu asked: "What did Linglong say?"
"She refuses to reveal even a single word. However, I do think that Linglong and Chen Huaibu are a good match... Hey, stop the car!" Gu Qingcheng said repeatedly.
The car slowly stopped on the side of the road.
This is the main road in the British Concession, and Xinxin Department Store is right in front.
There is a pastry shop on the street.
Gu Qingcheng got out of the car, turned around and said to Mrs. Gu: "The egg tarts in this store are very famous. Si Qi likes them very much. I'll buy a few and bring them to him. Oh, don't wait for me. It's not a few steps away. I'll walk there myself.
.”
The driver said: "Let's wait a moment. We are at least two hundred meters away from Xinxin Department Store."
"You have to wait a long time, freshly baked egg tarts are delicious..." Gu Qingcheng explained.
"Go home early."
"Know it."
Mrs. Gu rolled up the car window and ordered: "Drive."
The car continued to drive.
After watching the car drive away, Gu Qingcheng was about to enter the pastry shop.
"Miss Gu? What a coincidence?"
Gu Qingcheng looked up and saw "Xiaozhi" wearing an embroidered cheongsam standing in front of him with a smile.
"It's you?"
Gu Qingcheng was quite surprised.
This woman left behind Chong Chong and disappeared without a trace. Unexpectedly, she met her on the street.
"Hello, Miss Gu."
Sugawara-eda greeted warmly.
Gu Qingcheng lowered her face and said in a cold tone: "I'm fine, Chongchong is not."
Sugawara-eda sighed: "I know that you all look down on me. But have you ever thought about how any mother in the world would abandon her child so cruelly? I can't help it..."
If they don't know the inside story, most people will be skeptical of such an explanation.
Gu Qingcheng is no exception.
She asked: "What's your problem?"
Sugawara Eda hesitated and said: "There are too many people here and it's inconvenient to talk. Let's talk in the car..."
