Chapter 294 Song Die's Approach
However, Gu's mother still insisted: "I don't care about the project or not. If you don't come back today, I will wait until you come back."
Gu Chen felt a headache. He knew his mother's character. She would not give up until she achieved her goal. He rubbed his temples and said, "Mom, please don't be like this. I really..."
Mother Gu interrupted him: "Son, I haven't seen you for so long, I just want you to come back for a meal, is that not possible?"
Gu Chen was silent for a moment, but finally softened his heart and said helplessly.
"Okay, Mom, I'll be back, but I might be a little late."
Only then was Mother Gu satisfied.
She nodded and said, "Okay, son, then mom will wait for you at home."
After hanging up the phone, Gu Chen looked at the documents in front of him and felt even more depressed, but he could only temporarily put down the work at hand and prepare to go home to face his mother's various demands.
He actually wanted to know what other plans Mother Gu had in store for him.
Gu Chen sighed helplessly, gave a few instructions to his subordinates, and hurriedly left the office.
When Gu Chen arrived at Gu's house, before he even entered the living room, he heard the laughter of Gu's mother and a woman. He had a bad feeling in his heart, and when he opened the door, he saw Song Die sitting next to Gu's mother, smiling sweetly.
When Song Die saw Gu Chen, surprise flashed in her eyes, and she quickly stood up to greet him: "Brother Gu Chen, you are finally here."
"Why are you still here?" Gu Chen nodded slightly as a greeting, but he was secretly wondering in his heart why Song Die was here.
It turned out that Song Die had been trying every possible way to get close to Gu Chen. She often appeared in various places where Gu Chen might be, creating opportunities for chance encounters. Sometimes she would deliberately fall in front of Gu Chen and wait for him to help her up; sometimes she would pretend to be lost and ask Gu Chen for help. But Gu Chen knew all about her tricks, but he didn't expose her out of politeness.
At this moment in Gu's house, Song Die began to display her "green tea" tactics again. She diligently poured tea for Gu Chen and said in a gentle voice: "Brother Gu Chen, you have worked hard, have a cup of tea to moisten your throat."
Gu Chen took the teacup and said lightly: "Thank you."
After regaining his memory, he hated Song Die even more, but because of his plan, he never exposed her.
Mother Gu smiled and said, "Gu Chen, look how thoughtful Song Die is."
When Song Die heard Gu's mother's praise, her face flushed and she worked even harder to perform. She picked up a piece of fruit and handed it to Gu Chen's mouth: "Brother Gu Chen, try this fruit, it's so sweet."
Gu Chen subconsciously dodged back and said, "I can do it myself, put it down."
He is very frugal with words and is unwilling to say more than a word.
Song Die did not give up, and stuffed the fruit into Gu Chen's hand, and pretended to get closer to Gu Chen intentionally or unintentionally: "Brother Gu Chen, don't be polite."
Gu Chen felt disgusted, but he couldn't get angry. He could only force a smile and pushed him away: "I don't like eating fruit."
This made Song Die very embarrassed and she had no choice but to continue looking for opportunities to get close to Gu Chen.
"Brother Gu, I've been having a good time recently. I often travel and participate in social activities..."
Then, Song Die took the initiative to find a topic and began to talk about some social activities she had recently participated in, portraying herself as a star in the social scene.
As she spoke, she secretly observed Gu Chen's reaction. Seeing that Gu Chen only responded occasionally, she worked even harder to add fuel to the fire.
Gu Chen actually had no intention of listening to her. He was thinking about how to end this awkward meeting as soon as possible. He kept looking at his watch, hoping that Gu's mother would understand his thoughts.
Mother Gu seemed to be completely oblivious to Gu Chen's impatience, and she kept praising Song Die: "Song Die is not only beautiful, but also has a good personality. She is a perfect match for our Gu Chen."
When Song Die heard this, a smug smile appeared on her face, and her eyes looked at Gu Chen even more passionately: "Brother Gu Chen, please take good care of me in the future."
Gu Chen smiled bitterly in his heart, but said, "Of course."
He did not tell her that he had recovered his memory. He wanted to see what Mother Gu was trying to do, so he had been enduring it.
"Brother Gu, you happen to have a piano at home. Let me perform for you. I know a lot about piano." At this time, Song Die suggested playing a piano piece for Gu Chen to show off her talent.
"I don't like listening to piano."
"Okay, Gu Chen, don't refuse. Song Die is a kind-hearted child. You are not allowed to refuse."
Gu Chen wanted to refuse, but seeing Gu's mother's expectant eyes, she did not give Gu Chen a chance to refuse, so he had to nod in agreement, otherwise his plan would be exposed.
Song Die sat at the piano and played a cheerful song. After playing, she looked at Gu Chen expectantly, hoping to get his praise.
Gu Chen said perfunctorily: "It plays well."
Song Die thought Gu Chen really appreciated her, and said excitedly: "If Brother Gu Chen likes it, I will play it for you every day in the future."
Gu Chen couldn't stand it anymore and prepared to leave, using the excuse that the company had urgent matters to deal with.
Mother Gu said dissatisfiedly: "You've just arrived and you're leaving. Can't you take things a little longer?"
Gu Chen said helplessly: "Mom, this is really urgent. It is related to the company's major decision."
Seeing this, Song Die said obediently: "Since Brother Gu Chen has something to do, then go and do it first. Work is more important."
Gu Chen felt as if he had been pardoned. He said goodbye in a hurry and left the Gu family.
The moment he walked out of the house, Gu Chen breathed a sigh of relief and secretly decided in his heart that he must find an opportunity to have a good talk with his mother and ask her not to arrange such meetings again.
After leaving the Gu family and returning to the company, Gu Chen sat in his spacious office, his brow furrowed. Thinking back to Song Die's recent frequent appearances in his life and her various deliberate attempts to get closer, his suspicions grew stronger. He decided he couldn't be passive anymore and had to find out Song Die's true intentions.
Gu Chen picked up the phone on his desk and dialed his special assistant, Xiao Liu. "Hello, Xiao Liu, help me investigate someone, Song Die. I need to know her detailed background and all relevant information. Give me the results as soon as possible."
He strongly demanded that Song Die's identity must be investigated as soon as possible. He had not investigated Song Die before he lost his memory. Now it seems that Song Die's appearance is indeed very suspicious.
"Yes, Mr. Gu. I will definitely find out Miss Song Die's identity as soon as possible."
After receiving the task, Assistant Xiao Liu immediately launched a comprehensive and in-depth investigation. He collected information through various channels, interviewed relevant personnel, and reviewed a large number of documents and records.
After half an hour of intense investigation, Xiao Liu finally came to Gu Chen's office with the results.
"Mr. Gu, there are results in the investigation into Song Die. We have found out Song Die's identity." Xiao Liu handed over a thick document that showed all of Song Die's information, including her interpersonal relationships.
Gu Chen took the document and flipped through it quickly. When he saw that the document showed that Song Die was Song Song's sister, his eyes instantly became sharp.
"Song Song's sister, no wonder..." Gu Chen muttered to himself. Song Song was his rival in love, in love with Jiang Ru, and had always used insidious means to approach Jiang Ru, which gave Gu Chen a headache. He had always regarded Song Song as a rival in love. Now Song Die's appearance was surely no coincidence.
Gu Chen leaned back in his chair, tapping his fingers lightly on the table, thinking about the conspiracy that might be hidden behind this. He knew that Song Die's approach was probably another trick of Song Song, and he had to respond carefully to avoid falling into the other party's trap.
He had a strong intuition telling him that the two brothers and sisters of the Song family were definitely not that simple, and there must be a bigger conspiracy hidden among them.
