Chapter 544: Sneaking a Smile

ing the guests at that table."Could I switch seats" he said, gesturing to the empty table beside him. Perhaps because he was handsome and had a strong presence, the two young girls at his table blushe...Lu Yaoyao covered herself with the blanket and giggled, hearing the sound of running water coming from the bathroom. She was both satisfied and her heart beat faster. It took a while before he came out.

She suddenly understood what he meant by wanting to smoke.

So I mischievously teased him, "You want a cigarette I'll ask Hao Jie to go get you a pack."

Gu Ruandong ignored her, but his eyes held a warning: There will be a day when you cry!

Lu Yaoyao suddenly remembered the incident on New Year's Day at the hotel, and she felt a shiver down her spine. She meekly said, "My foot injury, the doctor said it would take at least three months to fully heal."

Until I am recovered, you may not act like an animal.

Gu Ruandong finally spoke, his voice a little cold: "Well, the longer you quit smoking, the stronger the nicotine cravings become."

Lu Yao yao stopped talking completely, lying flat and motionless. In terms of shamelessness, she was definitely no match for Gu Ruandong.

She lay flat, watching Ruan Dong sitting by the bed, looking at her gently all the time, as if he wanted to draw her into his eyes. Her face flushed and her heart beat faster. She pulled the quilt bit by bit upwards, covering her face to block his view, then glanced at the pregnancy series again.

Gu Ruandong pulled her quilt away from her face bit by bit: "Don't get stuffy."

Then he continued, "Yao Yao, next time, no matter what the reason, don't run into danger. Nothing is more important than you."

Actually, both the set and the dressing room were equipped with cameras. He saw very clearly the video of her running into the fire scene, and he also knew why she recklessly ran in. He believed Lu Kuò had seen it too, but Lu Kuò didn't know what she went in there to get.

But is it worth it Is he worth it

At this moment, his eyes were filled with deep affection when he looked at her.

Lu YaoYao almost melted under his gaze, so she lowered her head and replied.

“I know.”

Gu Ruandong kissed her hand, bringing it to his lips. He knew she wasn't taking it seriously, so he emphasized again, very seriously and earnestly:

“Yao Yao, no one is worth you taking a risk for, not even me.”

"You deserve it," Lu Yaoyao said firmly.

She doesn't hold back, she isn't subtle. She's showing him with her actions that he is worthy.

Gu Ruan Dong leaned down and kissed her. Faced with her candid warmth, he was speechless.

Being cherished and loved by her made him feel precious. This was true when he was young, and it remained so as he grew older.

Lu Yaoyao chatted with him for a while and fell asleep. When she woke up the next morning, he had disappeared again.

Seeing Lu Kuo walk in, she had a look of disdain.

"Why are you always hanging around me Didn't you go back to work in Senzhou"

"Do you still have a conscience Do you think I enjoy staying in the hospital every day People are getting gloomy."

Then go back to Senzhou!

He's like a giant light bulb, always reporting on time every morning. This forces Gu Ruandong to come at night. He can't stand being tortured like this. Lu Yaoyao is turning her elbow outwards, but I feel sorry for Gu Ruandong.

Lu Kuò would have turned and left if not for the fact that she was his sister. But if he really did leave, he believed that as soon as he stepped out the door, his grandfather would call to berate him. In the Lu family, Zhenzhen had no status at all.

So the siblings were at odds with each other at this point, unable to be apart and forced to stay bound together. Perhaps they were enemies in a past life

Lu Yaoyao suddenly said, “After a few days when I'm discharged from the hospital, I'll go back to Senzhou to recover. Don't come to my house then, anyway, it’s far away and grandpa wouldn't know. I believe you won't be able to… >>>

"Doesn't heaven get tired of seeing my face"

Lu Kuò: “It's not just these two days of enough. I've seen enough long ago. Rest assured, after returning to Senzhou, I will automatically and completely disappear from your sight.”

Lu Yaoyao is in a good mood now, and her leg injury doesn't hurt anymore, so she has the energy to bicker with Lu Kuo.

She stayed in the hospital for almost a week. Lu Kuo came to accompany her every day during the day, and Gu Ruandong came at night. Hao Jie had already returned to Senzhou to work, leaving her assistant here to keep her informed.

The assistant said with a hint of resentment, "I feel like you're playing the field right now, manipulating two men at once. Morally bankrupt."

Lu YaoYao said, "Then you can search for the answer on a certain search engine. My brother loves me too much, what should I do"

She and Lu Kuo both disliked each other, yet they were inseparable and had to be bound together.

On the weekend, she called Ruannuan: "Can you come over and take my brother away this weekend"

Ruanruan had originally planned to visit her over the weekend anyway, and she smiled and asked, "What's wrong with your brother"

"He's such a bother."

Ruanruan smiled and replied, "Oh."

All is clear!

At the weekend, Ruannuan came to keep her company. Gu Ruandong just happened to be going back to Senzhou to deal with some urgent work that required his presence.

As soon as the plane landed, Xiao Cai and the driver came to pick him up. On the way, Xiao Cai began to report on his work.

“It’s still the problem of urban village demolition, something has happened.”

What's wrong

“The groundbreaking ceremony was originally scheduled for Monday. These past two days have been focused on finishing up the demolition work. The Chen family, who owned a storefront along the street, had signed the agreement beforehand but became stubborn after seeing the bulldozers arrive, wanting to back out and refuse to move. They even went to the roof to hang banners in protest. Wang, the head of the project, was present at the scene at that time.”

They have a quick temper and are direct, often giving forceful commands like "break it down."

"When the excavator moved the house, Mr. Chen, the old man of the Chen family, was sitting on the roof pulling a banner. He lost his footing and fell down from the 4th floor, hitting his head on the ground and died instantly."

Now the Chen family has set up a mourning hall at the construction site, with constant wailing and howling, attracting quite a few media outlets.

Xiao Cai finished his report and waited for Gu Ruandong to come up with a solution.

"Where's Lawyer Shu"

"Lawyer Shu has been communicating with Chen's family on-site these past few days."

Xiaocai thought of Lawyer Shu, he was really dedicated. He had been talking to the Chen family these past few days, his voice was hoarse from all the talking.

Where is Mr. Wang

"Mr. Wang is also here, he didn't dare to come and pick you up."

Evictions and accidents happen, Gu Ruandong had encountered them before. In the end, they were all about money. If the money was right, everything would be resolved naturally. However, in recent years, he found it troublesome to involve human lives. So, every time he collaborated with Wang, the most important point he emphasized was to keep things civilized and avoid staining his hands with blood again. It's hard to wash away bloodstains.

Mr. Wang has his own way of doing things, and even though we try to follow his instructions and control ourselves, when he gets angry, he just ignores everything.

Right now, news about the Gu Group's demolition project resulting in fatalities is spreading everywhere. Something this big couldn't have been done by the Chen family, a common citizen. There must be powerful capital backing them up.

This piece of land in the old village is worth its weight in gold, many competitors are envious and covetous. They take advantage of the situation to stir up trouble and smear the reputation of Gu's Group—it's all too common. Gu Ruandong has become accustomed to this and treats it with indifference.

Shu Tinglan faced this situation for the first time. After communicating with the Chen family for two days, seeing that they were unmoved by his pleas, he finally ...

It dawned on me that someone was pulling the strings behind the scenes.

She originally had some sympathy for the Chen family, after all, they had lost their loved ones, but now, she only saw the evil of human nature. On her way home from work that evening, she couldn't help but chat with Zhuo Yu'an for a few words. Ruandong was responsible for everyone's food, lodging, and transportation, so on the return flight, it was still the same people as when they came.There were some staff members from Gu Shi Dongyang F...
