Little Gathering (1)

EndlessFantasy TranslationEndlessFantasy Translation Ah Mo did not say anything and just silently stared at Gu Qiwu, his reserved and imposing manner not giving in to Gu Qiwus. While as Ah Mo was sizing him up, Gu Qiwu also fixed his gaze on him while his dark eyes refracted a shifting light. His stern face was a little tense, but you could not quite read his expression. The two of them seemed to confront each other for quite a while before Gu Qiwu spoke up, Nice to meet you, Ah Mo! Looks like you still remember me. His deep voice contained a hint of amusement, but it sounded cold to Ah Mo. Mr. Gu of the Hui Gu Corporation, you were quite popular a while back. Itd be quite hard to not remember you. Ah Mos face was calm as he responded calmly. The curve on the corner of Gu Qiwus lips widened. Then, he pointed at the seat across him. Have a seat! Ah Mo looked at him thoughtfully, then walked over and sat down. I remember the last time we sat across each other like was a few years ago when Mu Yinan came to City B to talk business. I made an appointment with him, but he didnt come and sent you instead. He regards you quite high, and you have quite a status in the Mu family. Gu Qiwus inquisitive gaze paused on Ah Mos face. Although his tone seemed a little meaningful, Ah Mo could hear a hint of disdain. Still, he was used to these things because he had seen such tricks before. Mr. Gu, youre wrong. Theres no such thing as a hierarchy in our Mu family, just the elders and those who come after them, Ah Mo replied. Gu Qiwu suddenly laughed. His calm tone was filled with a hint of disdain as he taunted, No hierarchy? Our Mu family? Are you already part of the Mu family? I heard that you were just an orphan that Mu Yinan adopted from the orphanage. Even if that were hard to hear, Ah Mos expression did not change at all. He looked at Gu Qiwu calmly, I think you dont want to see me today just to discuss my background, do you? Youre quite a hard one. I heard about you from Ah Yong. You used to be Mu Yinans expert help, and now youre a capable subordinate of Mu Yuchens. Even Ah Yong was praising your capabilities. However, these things cannot cover up the truth of your background. When Gu Qiwu said this, he paused and examined Ah Mo again before continuing, You should have a better chance, and not lower yourself to just be Mu Yuchens subordinate as Glory World Corporations common project manager, dont you think? In the end, Gu Qiwus tone seemed to sound like he was probing. His dark brows were slightly raised as he looked at Ah Mo with amusement. Ah Mo slowly lowered his gaze, hiding the shadow that flashed in his eyes. I dont know what youre talking about. You know what I mean! But I wont point it out either. A sneer flashed across Ah Mos lips. Im sorry, Mr. Gu. I dont understand what you mean. You and I understand each other. I personally admire your capabilities and think youre very responsible. Youve stayed at the Mu family for so many years, and done so much for them. Mu Yuchen should at least arrange for a better position for you, shouldnt he? Do you need me to make it any clearer? I accidentally found out a while back that your wifes pregnant too. As a man, dont you think that you should give your child a better life? Gu Qiwus voice continued to drone on. Let my woman and child have a better life? Mr. Gu, do you know this logic too? When he heard this, Ah Mo found it even more ironic. This man did not mention Lingshi at all, and instead, talked at length about these things. As Ah Mo finished, Gu Qiwus profound gaze took in all of Ah Mos disdain. However, he did not answer him and his expression did not seem calm. He thought to himself that Mu Lingmo definitely knew about his relationship with Mu Lingshi. However, Gu Qiwu did not plan on pointing it out bluntly. You should consider my words. With your capabilities, you shouldnt just be a little project manager. Besides, dont they say that they see Mu Lingshi as a Mu familys daughter too? Upon hearing this, Ah Mos expression began to shift from dark to light as he glanced uncertainly at Gu Qiwu, Can you give me a better deal? Gu Qiwu instantly smiled, seeming to be satisfied with the changes on Ah Mos face. At least, I wont be stingy with my own people. Upon hearing that, Ah Mo had a mixed expression. He looked quietly at Gu Qiwu and pursed his lips tightly without uttering a word. You can go back and consider it, Glory World can only be Mu Yuchens. Although you think of him as one of your own, he might not. Six years ago, after that tragedy, is that not enough to show what the problem is? After going through that, you should understand it very well. In fact, it was Mu Yuchen who asked you to arrange for the people. I heard that you hesitated then, didnt you? Gu Qiwu went on with a lower voice though Ah Mo could hear a hint of strangeness. Ah Mo quickly looked up and met with Gu Qiwus to catch a hint of coldness from his dark eyes! Alright, you can go back and think about it. Im looking forward to your answers. If youre willing to become part of my people, Ill allocate an even vaster space for you. Afterwards, Ah Mo did not answer Gu Qiwus question. When he left the clubhouse, it was already very late at night, and Maple Residence had already fallen into silence. Xi Xiaye had just coaxed Mu Xiaocheng to sleep and bathe, while Mu Yuchen was browsing through some documents in the study room. When the phone rang, Mu Yuchen answered without even looking. Brother, it was really as you said! On the way home earlier, I was stopped by Gu Qiwus people who brought me to meet him! Ah Mos voice sounded solemn as he spoke softly. Mu Yuchen reacted calmly. Hmm? What did he talk to you about? As he answered, he closed the thick book he was holding and put it back onto the shelf. He wanted me to be one of his chess pieces. I think it was meant to go against you. He even brought up that thing with Lingtian, but his move of trying to drive a wedge between us doesnt seem very clever, Ah Mo said, unfazed. Upon hearing that, Mu Yuchens expression froze slightly, then he answered coldly, Whether its clever or not depends on who it was targetting. If it were really someone, this might actually be a good trick.
