Chapter 323: Taking the Initiate

“Su Ming’s girlfriend?” Gu Chen pondered for a moment; his impression of Li Lan wasn’t very profound.

After a while, he said, “They should have met through arranged dating. Li Lan’s family is from an ordinary working-class background, but her father used to be a small leader in a factory. Their family is slightly wealthier than average. She studied abroad for two years, and there’s nothing abnormal about it. I’ve had someone investigate. Her current job position is genuinely earned; she excelled in her studies with high scores.”

Song Fan was somewhat surprised; she hadn’t expected him to investigate even the girlfriends of people around him. However, considering the complex background of the Gu family and Gu Chen’s situation, it made sense to thoroughly check Sumei’s sudden addition of a girlfriend.

“The issue lies in the two years she spent abroad.” Song Fan found it difficult to broach the subject. She knew Gu Chen was resistant to her recovering memories.

But Gu Chen immediately caught on. “The two years you lost?”

Song Fan nodded slightly. “And the person who fought me seems very familiar with me. The fact that I have an injury on my left shoulder is something only a few mercenaries who executed missions with me would know. She knows it. I suspect she is somehow related to my disappearance, at least she knows me or was kidnapped with me. Li Lan wore a diamond earring when she visited your house that day. Although she claimed to have put it away, I think there’s something wrong. Su Yang was particularly nervous at that time. Also, Li Lan’s arm was just burned, and it’s impossible to see if there were any previous scars. ”

She carefully chose her words, knowing the importance of the matter. Su Yang was one of Gu Chen’s trusted confidants. If he had issues, Gu Chen would be even more vulnerable. However, Su Yang had indeed risked his life to save Gu Chen, and she wasn’t sure if he was being manipulated.

“Su Yang has no problem. I can assure you of that,” Gu Chen said earnestly. “Although he is my assistant, most of the time, he’s more like family, even an elder brother. He is trustworthy.”

Song Fan nodded, hoping he was right. If Su Yang betrayed them, she knew it would be tough for Gu Chen.

But Gu Chen remained rational. He continued, “However since you suspect issues with Li Lan, I will use my connections to investigate. If she doesn’t show any flaws, perhaps her parents might have some. Don’t get involved in this matter; I will handle it.”

Initially, Song Fan hoped he would be more cautious. Now, with so many unknowns around Gu Chen, even with tight security at Gu Mansion, poison could still be administered. She had to be extremely vigilant.

Song Fan added, “You could also investigate A Li. I know many foreign organizations use orphans or children from single-parent families. They may train them for many years and then deploy them for undercover missions.

Some may even stay undercover for a lifetime before finally playing a role.”

She was well aware that Gu’s people were carefully selected, and their identities thoroughly screened. A Li’s sudden change of allegiance could only mean she was a prearranged pawn.

“Also, Charlie wants to collaborate with me.” Song Fan didn’t conceal anything;

she was well aware that certain matters couldn’t be hidden. “He mentioned that there might be an issue with my father. He consistently prevents my siblings and me from entering the Song Group… Charlie proposed a collaboration on a jewelry brand, and I find it feasible. It could be my stepping stone into the Song

Group.”

Her words surprised Gu Chen somewhat, but he had some understanding of the Song family, especially Song Yi. Although he had a good reputation in A City, he had heard from a few old shareholders that he was a cunning fox, and he wasn’t averse to ruthless methods.

Upon thinking about how difficult it was for him to initially enter the Gu Group, he sighed and said, “Charlie must have some hidden agenda. However, the strength of the Brown Group is not comparable to other domestic companies. But if you’re worried, you can collaborate with the Gu Group. I can provide you with more resources, and Gu’s involvement in the jewelry business is extensive.”

His suggestion was indeed very feasible. Instead of cooperating with a less familiar Brown Group scion, it was better to choose Gu Chen. The influence of the Gu Group was sufficient for her to establish herself in the Song family. With a few successful collaborations, she could enter upper management.

However, Song Fan shook her head. “I’ve already thought about it. I want to collaborate with him. Not only because his plan is feasible, but also because he knows you were poisoned. Perhaps he has connections with the mastermind behind the scenes.”

She picked up the teacup, blowing gently on the surface, then squinted her eyes. “Instead of sitting and waiting for an assassination, it’s better to take the initiative and see what he’s up to..”
