Chapter 491: Unexpected Guest
After Gu Fan left, Leng Le put on a somewhat headache-inducing expression: "What should we do? We’ve shown too much interest in Gu Fan’s old house, and given Gu Fan’s sharp intuition, he will definitely suspect that there’s something going on. He may even turn up something."
However, the boss didn’t see this as a problem: "No matter, even if we don’t say anything, Gu Fan’s parents will eventually let him know. Possibly, once Gu Fan finds out, it could even help us uncover the secret of the old house."
"I see, so that’s what you’ve been planning, boss." Understanding dawned on Leng Le, his lips curling up at the corners in anticipation of the impending drama.
Meanwhile, Gu Fan, who had just left the Elite Club, took a deep breath, unable to understand why the boss kept brooding over the old house. It wasn’t like the boss needed a place to stay.
Sensing that something was off, Gu Fan furrowed his brow and pondered, but for the life of him, he couldn’t figure out what was so special about the old house.
As Gu Fan was racking his brain, he received a call from Du Jun, which immediately gave him a bad feeling. While they were no longer enemies, they didn’t contact each other much. So, if Du Jun was calling now, it probably wasn’t good news.
Steadying himself, Gu Fan answered the call, and asked, "What’s up, Du Jun? Please don’t tell me it’s bad news."
Du Jun responded, "Actually, I wanted to scare you a bit with some bad news, but sorry, no such luck. There’s an old man from the ancient town who wants to meet you. He says you know him."
"The old man, could it be?" Gu Fan recalled the overly loud man from the ancient town. His impression of him was quite strong, hence, he agreed: "Okay, I also want to meet him, have a chat. Do I need to make a trip to the ancient town?"
