Chapter 84 : Deceived By Those Ignorant Women Out There

"That's right, there won't be much chance to interact with each other in the future anyway." Mu Lanshu nodded and suddenly looked at Gu Nian suspiciously, "Tell me the truth, you and that Chu Zhaoyang have nothing to do with each other, right?"

"No." Gu Nian quickly denied, "Don't make blind guesses."

"Chu Zhaoyang's conditions are good, but they're just too good. We won't try to get too high. We won't get entangled with him either. We can't afford to get entangled, you know?" Mu Lanshu grabbed Gu Nian's hand and said nervously, "Their family, you stay far away, understand?"

Gu Nian thought that Mu Lanshu might disagree, but she didn't expect that her reaction would be so big.

"Mom, you scratched my hand and it hurts," Gu Nian said.

Mu Lanshu quickly let go, lowered her head, and saw her fingerprints on the back of Gu Nian's hand.

"I didn't mean it, I'm sorry." Mu Lanshu rubbed the back of Gu Nian's hand.

"It's okay." Gu Nian held Mu Lanshu's hand, "Mom, why are you reacting so big?"

"I have?" Mu Lanshu concealed a smile and looked away, "No, mom just thinks that this kind of big family has a lot of things going on, and ordinary people like us can't afford to mess with them."

"I know." Gu Nian whispered, lost in thought, Chu Zhaoyang's face appeared in her mind.

"In that case, how about meeting the boy that my classmate introduced to you? Let's just live an ordinary life."

Gu Nian knew that Mu Lanshu was still not at ease.

She still kept Yan Chuwei's words in mind.

"Mom, I want to let nature take its course, and I don't really want to go through a blind date. You know, I'm a very slow-tempered person, and I don't think I'm suitable for a blind date."

"What's the matter? Just meet a few more times. As a police officer, how can you usually have so many opportunities to meet outsiders? Just let nature take its course. How long will it take? Listen to me, just meet each other. This time this boy is really good." Mu Lanshu said without refusal.

Seeing that Gu Nian didn't want to agree, Mu Lanshu glared: "Do you really have any thoughts about Chu Zhaoyang?"

"No." Gu Nian said helplessly.

"Then, go on a blind date." Mu Lanshu couldn't help but say.

Gu Nian could only agree reluctantly.

Chu Family, located in Shan Shui Yuan in the east of the city, was a famous high-end villa residential area in B City.

There were not many villas in the community, and most of the area was occupied by golf courses, lakes and woods.

Although it's in a busy city, the environment was quiet.

Chu Tian skipped down from the second floor carrying her bag. When she passed the living room, her mother, Xiang Yulan, called: "Where are you going?"

"I'm going to see Gu Nian." Chu Tian stopped, fearing that Xiang Yulan didn't know, and then explained, "Didn't she get injured while protecting my brother? She's in the hospital. I'll go over and have a look."

"I asked your brother, but it was just a few bumps, nothing serious. Why are you running there so early in the morning?" Xiang Yulan waved to Chu Tian and called her over, "I have asked Xiao Liu to go see her with a gift, so you don't have to go there again."

"How can that be done? No matter whether the injury is minor or serious, she is trying to protect my brother. Mom, how can you just let Xiao Liu go? This is too disrespectful. Besides, do people care about your courtesy?" Chu Tian said unhappily, turned around and walked out, muttering, "I don't know if Nian Nian will be angry."

"You come back!" Xiang Yulan threw down the orange peel and half of the oranges on the coffee table, "Why will she be angry? The things I sent were all valuable supplements. She just bumped into it a few times, and it was a profit to get these. Besides, it is her job to protect your brother, and she is doing her part. It is very reasonable for me to express my gratitude."

"Mom, why are you so hostile to Nian Nian?" Chu Tian said with a puffed up face.

Xiang Yulan took out a tissue and wiped the orange juice on her hands, then looked up at her: "Are you familiar with her?"

Chu Tian chuckled: "In terms of familiarity, my brother is more familiar with her."

Chu Tian ran over, sat down next to Xiang Yulan, and said, "Mom, my brother treats Gu Nian differently than others. It's quite unusual. I've never seen him pay so much attention to a girl. He treats Gu Nian like this. But it's the first time."

Xiang Yulan made a move, and then her face darkened: "Don't mess around with your brother's affairs and force him to follow any woman."

"I'm messing around? It's because my brother likes her that I went to get along with her. I found that Gu Nian is indeed very good and suitable for my brother. So, Mom, be polite to Gu Nian!" Chu Tian said anxiously.

Xiang Yulan clicked her tongue impatiently and said, "You know people but don't know their hearts. How do you know she didn't do it to show your brother on purpose? Do you know her? You said you help your brother check it out. What's the matter?"

Xiang Yulan peeled off an orange and said to Chu Tian who was fuming: "Besides, I have already found a girl for your brother. She is a little girl from the Jiang family. Jiang Xiangxue is two years older than you. She is mature, steady and not too lively is just right for your brother."

"Mom, you are the one messing around! My brother likes Gu Nian, so he won't like anyone else. Can you please stop causing trouble?" Chu Tian said anxiously.

Chu Zhaoyang and Gu Nian were at odds with each other for some reason, and they haven't reconciled yet. If another person comes to cause trouble, could things get better?

"You are a child, what do you know?" Xiang Yulan said impatiently, "Your brother had a bad experience when he was a child, and his personality changed. He rarely had contact with anyone after he came back, and then he gradually got better. I was afraid of him being deceived by those ignorant women out there."

"Mom, brother is not a child anymore. He doesn't need you to make decisions for him and check things for him. If he is really so gullible, can Chutian get better and better under his hands? My brother doesn't like to talk, but he's not stupid. He has his own ideas, so don't influence him in everything, okay?" Chu Tian stood up.

"I'm doing this all for his own good!" Xiang Yulan's face turned completely cold, "I'm usually too spoiled to you, and everything depends on your temper. Go back to your room now, and you're not allowed to look for Gu Nian."

"It's because of this that my brother moved out." Chu Tian was furious.

"Go back, and don't tell your brother about this, or you won't be able to continue do what you want!" Xiang Yulan said coldly with a stern face and a straight chin.

Chu Tian's breath caught in her chest, and tears of anger came out.

"You are so unreasonable!" Chu Tian said angrily, turned around and ran back to the room.

Gu Nian returned to the police station to report the day after she was discharged from the hospital. As soon as she entered the office, she was caught by Shen Xiaoman.

"What's going on between you and Chu Zhaoyang? Tell me the truth!" Shen Xiaoman grabbed Gu Nian, raised her index and middle fingers, and pointed at her eyes, "The night before yesterday, I saw it very seriously. He hugged you in a princess carry!"

"It's because I got hit a few times to protect him, and he was afraid that I would get hit and cause problems." Gu Nian explained. After not coming for a few days, the table was covered with a thin layer of dust.

She soaked the rag and wiped the table, and said, "Isn't this quite normal? Isn't it to protect him?"

Shen Xiaoman shook her head and said, "Do you think I'm stupid? He's not just thanking you for being like this! Moreover, you were the one who offered to protect him before, right? There must be something fishy between you two."

"Speaking of which, what happened to the four people we arrested? Did they say who ordered them?" Gu Nian asked as she took another glass of water for herself.

"You changed the topic very abruptly." Shen Xiaoman said speechlessly.

Gu Nian couldn't help but laugh and shook Shen Xiaoman's arm: "Oh, just let me go. What happened to those four people?"

"After a day of interrogation yesterday, the four people only confessed a small gang. I don't know whether it is true or not, but Captain Li and Xu Chengyi investigated the small gang's share of the drug market. It was very small. Basically, they relied on pulling strings in the middle, so the new drugs developed by Chutian Group actually have little impact on them. They don't have the strength and there was no need to take action, but the clues do point to that small gang, and there was no way to continue to investigate. There are no more clues."

Just as she was talking, Mo Jingsheng and Li Shaofeng walked in with gloomy faces, both trying to suppress their emotions.

"Boss, Captain Li." Gu Nian called.

Seeing her, Mo Jingsheng nodded: "Here you are, are you okay?"

"I'm okay." Gu Nian said.

"I just received news that the police car escorting the four people exploded. The policeman who was escorting and driving the car and the four people died on the spot." Li Shaofeng said solemnly, his eyes red.

The two colleagues responsible for escorting and driving died innocently, but the person behind the scenes had not been found yet.

As soon as those four people died, the clues were completely cut off.
