The Glamorous Comeback of the Ousted Heiress novel Chapter 684

Chapter 684: 272 Mysterious Shanhai Residential Complex, A Table for One (Second Update)_1

“Young Master Jiang,” Gao Shu said, somewhat surprised, as Jiang Fulai seldom called her. They had WeChat, but rarely chatted. Most matters were conveyed to her by Jiang Xijue, “Why are you calling me?”

It was indeed out of the ordinary.

Jiang Fulai returned to his room after staying a long while in room 103. His clothes had picked up a faint smell of tobacco, and he was preparing to take a bath, holding his loungewear. His voice was casual, “Did you go to the concert today?”

He had never before taken such interest in her whereabouts.

Gao Shu’s fingers rested on her knees, and after a brief thought, she said in surprise, “You… don’t tell me, she recognized me?”

Without speaking a word or giving Bai Lian overly attentive looks, she had been concerned about revealing anything to Bai Lian.

...

“Yes, I mentioned you to her,” Jiang Fulai said, turning with his clothing in hand.

“What did she say?” Gao Shu quickly thought, knowing the gift she selected for Bai Lian had to be considerable. She had gone out of her way overseas to find a collector to select an imperial green hairpin for Bai Lian.

Jiang Fulai dashed Gao Shu’s hopes of giving Bai Lian another hairpin, and at the moment, Gao Shu had not yet found another appropriate gift for Bai Lian.

Luckily, there was an auction later in the week, and Gao Shu had already had Secretary Xue schedule it in.

Gao Shu stated formally, “If not, then don’t wait any longer. Take me to meet her.”

Jiang Fulai reached for the bathroom door, stopping in front of the mirror, “It depends on her schedule.”

“I know,” Gao Shu smiled, knowing about Bai Lian’s existence through news from Gao Yan. She did not dare to inquire about the people around Jiang Fulai, “Just let me know in advance when she is available.”

She hung up the phone.

Jiang Fulai casually placed the phone on the washstand and began to unbutton his shirt.

The Gao Family.

Mu Youjun waited for Gao Yi and Gao Jiachen to return, standing at the door to take the overcoat off Gao Yi.

He spoke to Gao Jiachen at his side, “Have you had any contact with Professor Ma at the Tongfeng class or at the Ma Institute?”

“As you know, Professor Ma always leaves right after his classes,” Gao Jiachen said indifferently.

They discussed some research matters. Once they were done talking, Mu Youjun brought up the encounter with Gao Shu she had on the road.

Gao Yi narrowed his eyes, turning to Gao Jiachen, “Your young aunt is back. Try to arrange to meet her in the next couple of days. Her word carries more weight than that of our entire family.”

It couldn’t be helped, after all, Gao Yi was Jiang Fulai’s uncle.

At one time, Gao Yi dared to leverage his status as the uncle, but now, even seeing Jiang Fulai was not easy, let alone anything else. _{freёwebnovel.com}
