The Ceo‘s Caged Melody

Black-bellied, sharp-tongued business tyrant vs. adorably cunning, deceptively soft beauty 【Let the evil meet their fate, and if fate doesn't take its course, I'll do it for you】 It was rumored in C City that the merchant Gu Jiangnian was a master of strategy and profit, where every move was made for gain. But everyone at Junhua knew, Director Gu sought not only profit but also people. To what extent? Want money, send money; want someone, send someone; you fight, I guard the door; you brawl, I support you. Before marriage, she was the least favored miss of the Jiang family, battling alone against her cruel stepmother and adulterous father, with her daily work: brawl! Brawl! And brawl some more! After marriage, she was the beloved little ancestor of the Gu Mansion, pampered and protected in the palm of the master's hand, too precious to let others bully, with her daily work: cling to powerful coattails! Cling! And cling some more! 【Post-marriage daily life one】 One day, Mrs. Gu was ill and had lost her appetite. Mr. Gu canceled his appointments to return home, sat in front of her, and coldly stared, his words icy: “Didn’t you say I was a feast for the eyes? Eat!” 【Post-marriage daily life two】 Mrs. Gu found herself in a tight spot, attacked by the public, when a reporter relentlessly pursued Gu Jiangnian asking, “As Junhua’s director and C City’s wealthiest Mr. Gu, what is your opinion on Mrs. Gu's attempt to run over her own biological father?” The man paused abruptly, his face cold as he slowly and deliberately said, “She's spoiled by me. What’s it to you?” Without waiting for the reporter to answer, he arrogantly continued, “Even if you have an opinion, keep it to yourself. My woman, Gu Jiangnian’s woman, is not subject to your criticism.”

Chapter 29: Late Night Visit

Translator: 549690339

```

In the spacious bedroom, the night breeze from outside blew through the window, stirring the sheer curtains.

The man stood by the window, holding his cell phone and listening to the conversation on the other end. It took him a while to reply, "Everything Jiang Muwan is doing now is aimed at killing Yang Hu. Follow this lead in your investigation."

"And... what after the investigation?" Xu Fang asked.

Perhaps Xu Fang's question had struck a nerve, as it took Gu Jiangnian a while to respond. Indeed! What after the investigation?

He was never one to meddle in other people's affairs, so why did he behave differently when it came to Jiang Muwan?

The man by the window raised his hand to his face, his long fingers touching the glass as he pondered for a long time, as if he had figured something out, "Go back and rest."

Late at night, the man lay in bed with his eyelids tightly closed, yet his mind kept replaying Jiang Muwan's words, a different kind of dialogue between them.
