(From this chapter, we can finally return to the male lead's perspective. In order to follow the previous chapter, we had to write a lot of content from the female lead and other characters' perspectives, and then we will always describe the male lead's perspective)
Sometimes a person's situation is like a domino. Once the first one is pushed down, the next thing is an uncontrollable avalanche
Gu Dapeng, who was unable to bring Su Mengmeng back, did not stay for a long time after leaving the Love Hotel, but went directly to the place where he set out, which was where Ding Qian and Sun Yang lived.
He had thought of waiting for a chance to see Su Mengmeng at the door, but Rita Liu upstairs obviously thought that he would do this. After he came out of the hall, he saw two black cars suddenly braked at the door of the hotel, and there were several bad-looking men coming down from above.
The two of them were separated by the car, and the other two went upstairs
A moment later, Gu Dapeng saw the figures of two women, Rita Liu and Jingye, while a man following them was carrying a tightly wrapped in a bath towel.
That is undoubtedly Su Mengmeng
Gu Dapeng is still clear about the truth that two fists cannot beat four hands, and he also noticed another detail, which completely dispelled the idea of forcibly snatching Su Mengmeng away.
Among the men who got out of the car, he saw a familiar face.
Gu Dapeng didn't remember who this man was at first, but fortunately he was a member of the guards who was left by the car. After looking at him for a while, Gu Dapeng finally recognized him.
The man's name is Liu Heng. Gu Dapeng remembers his face because he once accompanied Su Mengmeng and Sun Yang to find him. It was from that unexpected encounter that Gu Dapeng began his fate with Su Mengmeng.
But the reason why Gu Dapeng remembers the name Liu Heng is another matter
That day, when he first saw Liu Heng, the man, he was with Zhang Xiaotian, and Gu Dapeng remembered that Zhang Xiaotian recognized Liu Heng first, and so he scared the man's courage in a few words.
In other words, this Liu Heng is the security guard under Zhang Xiaotian's control, and he is Zhang Xiaotian's man.
Why did Zhang Xiaotian's people appear next to Rita Liu? And judging from this posture, they were obviously called by Rita Liu to help and protect him.
Gu Dapeng has always believed in his brother Zhang Xiaotian. He almost completely accepted Zhang Xiaotian's words without thinking, so he always believed that the struggle for ownership of Bichiyuan Club between Zhang Xiaotian and Rita Liu must be an opposing relationship.
But now, Zhang Xiaotian's men appeared beside Rita Liu
What exactly does this mean?
Two possibilities appeared in Gu Dapeng's mind instantly
One is that this man named Liu Heng chose to follow Rita Liu just out of his personal opinion. This is also the explanation that Gu Dapeng can accept the most.
Another type is that Zhang Xiaotian and Rita Liu actually have a certain degree of cooperation, and these people are driven by Zhang Xiaotian lent to Rita Liu.
If the truth of the matter is this, then the opposition between him and Rita Liu as Zhang Xiaotian calls him, it is still to be considered.
Gu Dapeng didn't think Zhang Xiaotian was lying to him, but he couldn't help but start his own thinking.
The woman Rita Liu's stronghold in this city is undoubtedly the current Bichiyuan. If you hadn't heard Zhang Xiaotian's statement, Gu Dapeng would directly think that the woman Rita Liu is the owner of Bichiyuan's club, or at least an important person like shareholders.
Although Zhang Xiaotian, according to his explanation, his family has certain shares in Bichiyuan, and his father has handed him over Bichiyuan's convention.
But Gu Dapeng knew Zhang Xiaotian very well. Judging from his previous contact with Zhang Xiaotian, it was hard for Gu Dapeng to imagine that Zhang Xiaotian had taken over such a large club a long time ago
Gu Dapeng didn't know how much energy it took to run such a club, but not long ago, he and Zhang Xiaotian were still in a state of hang out almost every day. When Zhang Xiaotian mentioned his work, he always looked like he was just a waste of time, and he didn't show how busy he was.
However, it has become increasingly difficult for Gu Dapeng to see Zhang Xiaotian recently. When he saw him last time, the impression that Zhang Xiaotian left on Gu Dapeng has also changed significantly. He looks mature and more stable.
Then there is only one reasonable explanation
Zhang Xiaotian did not have taken over the management rights of the club from his father as he said, or the management rights were not in their hands from the beginning.
The current owner of the club must be Rita Liu. What Zhang Xiaotian has to do is to seize Rita Liu's handle in exchange for ownership or other benefits of the club.
Gu Dapeng himself became a tool driven by Zhang Xiaotian because of his indescribable relationship with Rita Liu, a woman.
After thinking through this, Gu Dapeng didn't feel so uncomfortable. After all, he didn't think it was a bad thing for Zhang Xiaotian to use him.
Zhang Xiaotian needs Gu Dapeng to approach Rita Liu, and Gu Dapeng also needs Zhang Xiaotian to provide support to achieve the goal of finally regaining Su Mengmeng.
In this regard, the two of them are each trying to get it
Gu Dapeng still doesn't want to use this word to describe his relationship with Zhang Xiaotian, but he still feels a little sad.
Back at the rental house, Ding Qian and Sun Yang were still sitting in the living room waiting for Gu Dapeng's return
Before leaving, Gu Dapeng did not let them go. After seeing Gu Dapeng alone, Ding Sun and his daughters obviously understood the result.
Mengmeng her...
Gu Dapeng shook his head at Sun Yang and said: I'm one step late, the woman named Rita is ahead of me
When it comes to Rita Liu's name, Ding Qian and Sun Yang's faces have different expressions
Sun Yang's expression was very confused. It seemed that he had heard this name for the first time, but Ding Qian's expression changed slightly, and his eyes looked at Gu Dapeng were a little more complicated.
Sister Ding Gu Dapeng looked at Ding Qian who had never spoken and asked: Do you know this woman named Rita Liu?
Ding Qian tucked her long hair hanging down by her shoulders and said: I can't count as knowing her, I can only say...I know her
Sun Yang also looked at Ding Qian. She was the only person present who had no contact with Rita Liu.
I know very little, and I have only seen her once. It is said that she came back from abroad, and once she returned to China, she became Bi Chiyuan's actual boss. I saw her at a breathing meeting in the club.
Ding Qian explained that she was explaining the information she had to Gu Dapeng, and it was also explaining it to Sun Yang who knew nothing.
Then... I've heard a rumor
What rumors?
That woman is said to have a very close relationship with Jingyuan. Some people say that they are lovers, and there are rumors that they are just husband and wife.
Now Sun Yang was finally able to interfere. She covered her mouth and said in surprise: Who are you with? Jingyuan! That man is actually... married?
Ding Qian glanced at Sun Yang who was fussing and continued: Anyway, these are all things I have heard of, but I don’t know whether they believe it or not. But Gu Dapeng, do you think that woman took Mengmeng away?
Yes, I watched them get into the same car, Mengmeng her... I guess she is not in good condition, I didn't see her, but she was carried onto the car
Hearing this, Ding Qian and Sun Yang both showed unbearable expressions
Especially Sun Yang, Gu Dapeng's description seemed to evoke her tragic memories. She even took a step back and curled up slightly.
Then why did she take Mengmeng away? Could it be because of Jingyuan? Are the rumors about Jingyuan and her true?
Only then did Gu Dapeng remember that he had never mentioned the deal between him and Jingyuan to the two people in front of him.
Now, as two people who care about Su Mengmeng's safety most besides themselves, Gu Dapeng feels that there is nothing to hide.
So he spoke and began to explain under what circumstances he met Jingyuan, how he and the woman Rita Liu were involved, and the deals he reached with Jingyuan and Rita Liu successively.
As he told, Ding Qian and Sun Yang's expressions became more and more surprised
Ding Qian is quite restrained and does not show too much exaggeration, but Sun Yang is becoming more and more excited, and almost interrupts Gu Dapeng several times.
So, what do you mean is...Which woman named Rita Liu caught Su Mengmeng away to be used as bait to attract you to the bait?
Gu Dapeng nodded and said: As far as what I have heard so far, she is indeed the purpose.
But, but she is like this...as for it?
Sun Yang couldn't help but interrupt, she didn't know where to start suspicious.
Ding Qian glanced at Sun Yang and sighed: Do those people need reasons to do this? Sun Yang, you should know the most.
When Sun Yang heard this, he lowered his head knowingly
What do you do now?
Gu Dapeng replied: Be prepared for both ways. I must go to meet that woman, but I am not sure she will keep her promise and let her go, so I plan to go to Zhang Xiaotian. He and Rita Liu seem to have a conflict. He has asked me to help with that woman before, and he should be able to help me.
That's it
Ding Qian nodded, she thought for a while, looked at Gu Dapeng and said again: You mentioned that Rita Liu and Zhang Xiaotian had a conflict, but... I remembered some things, I don't know if you already know it.
What?
The day after tomorrow, an internal event will be held in the club. It is said that it will last for three days. The scene is very big. Now the club has begun to close its business and make relevant preparations, and the preliminary preparations have started a few months ago.
Gu Dapeng listened and seemed to understand what Ding Qian was going to say.
You mentioned what party that woman was going to hold... As far as I know, the event to be held in the club is different from the previous ones, and the most different thing is that this event was held for the new boss.
That new boss should be that woman, Rita Liu
Sun Yang also reacted and said: What does it mean... Sister Ding, are you saying that Mengmeng will be taken to the event that the club will hold this week?
Ding Qian nodded, but she obviously hadn't finished her words yet
Gu Dapeng, the reason I know this is because I and Ding Qian were asked to participate in this event... I don’t need to say you should understand what you want to do.
What contacted us is Zhang Xiaotian. The wind I heard was that Zhang Xiaotian made great efforts for this event. If you said it is true, he had a deep conflict with that woman Rita Liu, then how could he...
After hearing Ding Qian's words but stopped, Gu Dapeng breathed a long breath
I know, I know that they may have a cooperative relationship on the surface just now at the entrance of the hotel. I also saw a man named Liu Heng who was with Rita Liu and the others. He should be Zhang Xiaotian's man, right?
Liu Heng?
Ding Qian frowned and seemed not to remember who it was, but Sun Yang immediately reacted: Who, Liu Heng? Shouldn't he be on duty at the club today? I had received a message from him before
He sends you a message?
Sun Yang nodded and said: That man seems to have fallen in love with me and has been getting close to me... Look, this news is what you were waiting 10 minutes ago, I will reply and ask what he is doing.
Sun Yang said as he raised his phone and started typing, and Liu Heng's reply was quite fast, but the content shocked the three people in the room.
(I'm running errands for the big guy. Manager Zhang specifically told me not to offend me, and I'll talk about it later)
After reading the news, the three of them were speechless
This, this doesn't necessarily mean that they are from the same group, right? Sister Ding, you talk, and you... you all...
Ding Qian looked at Gu Dapeng, and Gu Dapeng finally made up his mind
Tomorrow, I'll go to Zhang Xiaotian to find out
Sometimes a person's situation is like a domino. Once the first one is pushed down, the next thing is an uncontrollable avalanche
Gu Dapeng, who was unable to bring Su Mengmeng back, did not stay for a long time after leaving the Love Hotel, but went directly to the place where he set out, which was where Ding Qian and Sun Yang lived.
