Chapter 22 Encountering Su City and being searched

Gu Shiyao wanted to laugh a little. Mu Yichen was a bit unreasonable. Since he liked asking her questions so much, she just followed his words.

"The Overseer knows things like a god. He has guessed everything I have in mind."

After Gu Shiyao said this, he walked to his room.

Mu Yichen couldn't believe that Boss Gu would tell him the truth.

He walked down the stairs, walked over quickly, hooked his fingers on the cheongsam on Gu Shiyao's back, and then pulled her to his side.

He said: "Didn't Boss Gu say that I know things like a god? Come with me to the office building today and spend the day with me doing business."

Gu Shiyao: "..."

Why was he so serious? She couldn't accept Mu Yichen like this.

Mu Yichen didn't notice the expression on Gu Shiyao's face. He drove Gu Shiyao to the office building naturally.

Inside the office building, there were officers in military uniforms coming and going. They saw a woman standing next to Mu Yichen, and some of them almost slipped while walking.

Gu Shiyao enjoyed their funny looks along the way, and he felt obviously happy.

When they arrived at Mu Yichen's office, a door blocked all the sounds outside.

Mu Yichen walked to the bookcase and picked from the bookcase. After picking for about a minute, he pulled out a book from a whole layer of books and handed it to Gu Shiyao.

"You can read by yourself for a while, and I'll go talk to Adjutant Zhang about something."

Gu Shiyao sat across from his desk with a book, and she began to browse it carefully. This book was about military affairs. It contained many notes annotated by Mu Yichen, but it would be boring to read too much.

After watching for a while, Gu Shiyao found that Mu Yichen still hadn't come back. She walked to the bookcase and put the book back to its original place.

There were three floors of books in Mu Yichen's bookcase. She looked at the titles of each book carefully from left to right. Looking closely, she saw that they were all books about military strategy.

There were two knocks on the door, and Gu Shiyao subconsciously turned his head to look at the door.

Su Cheng walked in and saw Gu Shiyao standing next to the bookcase.

At this moment, Gu Shiyao was the only one in the warlord's office.

Gu Shiyao was wearing a crescent-white cheongsam today. This color cheongsam looked elegant and heart-warming when worn on Gu Shiyao.

Su Cheng's eyes flickered. The woman in front of her always looked stunning no matter what color of cheongsam she wore.

Gu Shiyao also looked at Su Cheng. He was dressed in military uniform and handsome, but the smile between his eyebrows made her frown.

Su Cheng took a step forward, his eyes were complicated, and he deliberately reminded: "Boss Gu, you are standing alone in the governor's office. If someone with an intention sees you and makes irresponsible remarks, I'm afraid that you stole military secrets." It will have a bad impact on you..."

Gu Shiyao glanced at him. She just wanted to find a book to read, but Su Cheng casually said something about stealing military secrets. Gu Shiyao felt that it would be safest for her to leave now.

"Sir Su, thank you for the reminder."

She walked to the chair in front of the desk, picked up her girl's bag, and prepared to walk outside.

Gu Shiyao passed by Su Cheng, and she smelled a faint scent of spices on Su Cheng. Before she could recover, Su Cheng suddenly grabbed Gu Shiyao's wrist. With a slender and white wrist, it was the first time that Su Cheng had such close contact with Gu Shiyao. He was a little surprised by his subconscious behavior just now.

Gu Shiyao saw Su Cheng staring at the bag in her hand, but he didn't know that Su Cheng was looking at her artistic wrist.

Gu Shiyao pulled it out and found that it was not pulled. She chuckled and said, "Sir Su, do you suspect that there is something shameful hidden in my bag?"

Su Cheng took a step back and let go of Gu Shiyao's hand. His behavior just now was indeed a bit rude.

His eyes flickered inexplicably: "I'm sorry, although Boss Gu is a distinguished guest in the governor's house, but the military meeting is coming soon, so I have to be cautious."

"It's better to be cautious." Gu Shiyao handed the girl's bag to Su Cheng and asked him to check it in an upright manner: "Mr. Su, please check it carefully."

Su Cheng didn't originally want to search the bag in her hand, but when he saw the female bag handed over by Gu Shiyao, he subconsciously caught it.

He opened the girl's bag in his hand, and there were only a few things inside that could be counted with ten fingers.

Su Cheng closed the bag in his hand and handed it back intact: "Sorry for disturbing Boss Gu."

Gu Shiyao smiled slightly, but in his heart he rolled his eyes at Su Cheng. This difficult man didn't seem very friendly to her.

"It doesn't matter. Mr. Su is just doing business. By the way," she paused and looked at Su Cheng seriously: "I saw a man wearing a blue gown upstairs in the department store today. For a moment, I felt that he had something to do with Mr. Su. The body shape is very similar.”

Su Cheng's heart shrank inexplicably. He put on a disguise when he went out, but this disguise happened to be seen by Boss Gu. What else did she know?
  There was a smile in his gleaming peach blossom eyes, and he pretended to be nonchalant: "Boss Gu must have made a mistake. Su has never left the office building today."

Gu Shiyao nodded, as if to show that she believed what he said. She smiled suspiciously: "Oh, maybe I'm just blind."

"The military governor went to discuss the matter with Adjutant Zhang. Commander Su may have to wait here."

Su Cheng didn't want to stay here for a long time. If any secrets were leaked by staying in the governor's office for a long time, he would be blamed.

Su Cheng was very sensitive to this. He observed Gu Shiyao's facial expression and said in a low voice: "Boss Gu and I will go out together and report something to the warlord."

Thinking of what he had just said and looking at the way Gu Shiyao responded calmly, Su Cheng felt that he might have underestimated Gu Shiyao. She did not look like an ordinary business woman.

He did pass by a department store when he went out today. Su Cheng was thinking, what on earth did she see? Will she tell the Overseer about this?

Su Cheng was very confused. He wanted to test Gu Shiyao, but he didn't know how to test it without arousing her suspicion.

Gu Shiyao walked outside. Halfway there, Su Cheng was called away by an officer in military uniform.

When she walked out of the office building, she looked back. Four stories high, this tall building concealed countless calculations and dangers.

Suddenly, a hand tapped her shoulder from behind.

Gu Shiyao exclaimed. When she saw Mu Yichen standing behind her, she was so frightened that she stepped on Mu Yichen's black military boots in front of Adjutant Zhang.

"Does the Overseer want to scare me to death? People are scary, and they can really scare people to death."

When Adjutant Zhang saw this, he was very sensible. He got out of here and was no longer a light bulb for the warlord.
