Taming beasts starts with understanding bird language

Chapter 858 Details determine success or failure
Early the next morning.

Gu Chan got up early, washed and had breakfast. Then she left the inn in a carriage and rushed to the Kyoto Chamber of Commerce.

Unlike yesterday, she was in a good mood today. After all, she had a business letter from the Kyoto Chamber of Commerce in her hand, and she also had some preliminary understanding of the Kyoto Chamber of Commerce. In this case, she would not be as at a loss as yesterday.

More than half an hour later, Gu Chan arrived outside the fourth door of the Kyoto Chamber of Commerce.

After getting off the carriage, she said to the driver, "Wait for me at the door for a while. I'll go in and come out soon."

"Yes, miss." said the driver respectfully.

Gu Chan immediately stepped forward and joined the crowd in line.

Since she had been there once yesterday, she chose the same door today, and the same guard was in charge of the inspection.

Gu Chan waited in line for a long time, and when it was finally her turn, she handed over the business card in her hand with a smile.

The guard first looked at her strangely, then opened the business letter and carefully examined it. After the examination, he returned the business letter to Gu Chan and said speechlessly, "Hey, little girl, can you please find out before you come? I want to scold you! You are so cute and so young, I can't help but scold you! You are wasting my time again!"

"Brother Guard, what's wrong? Didn't I come here with a business letter?" Gu Chan said dumbfoundedly.

"Your name is not on this business letter! It's Feng Hao, which is obviously a man's name. Can you really be called Feng Hao?" the guard said unhappily.

Gu Chan stood there with an embarrassed look on her face, speechless.

The guard sighed and said, "Let me tell you! You must hold the business card in person to enter. If you want to go in, you can ask the owner of the business card to come and take you in. Everyone in our Diyue country has their own identity card. You need to check the identity card and the business card to make sure they are consistent before you can pass."

"Ah? That's so troublesome!" Gu Chan said in a daze.

"Didn't you come here yesterday? I saw you chatting with that woman for a long time, and I thought you knew everything! And you should have seen so many people queuing up yesterday! Didn't everyone bring their ID cards and business cards for me to check?" the guard explained.

Gu Chan hurriedly apologized, "I'm sorry, Brother Guard. I was so busy chatting with that sister yesterday that I didn't notice everyone taking out a few copies of the post to check. I'm sorry for causing you trouble."

"Okay, okay, let's go! Don't waste my time here." The guard said impatiently.

Gu Chan left quickly so as not to delay the people behind her from coming forward for inspection.

Back in the carriage, Gu Chan angrily cursed, "Feng Hao, you bastard, no wonder you smiled so cunningly last night and gave me the business card so casually. You really cheated me again."

"Haha..." The coachman driving the carriage in front was so amused that he couldn't stop laughing.

"What are you laughing at? Go back to the inn quickly. I will beat him up." Gu Chan roared.

The driver was so frightened that he immediately stopped smiling and hurried back to the inn.

Not long after, Gu Chan returned to the inn. As soon as she entered the inn, she quickly rushed to the guest room upstairs where Feng Hao lived.

At this time, Feng Hao and Fang Tianyi were sitting at the table reading together, looking very affectionate, which made Gu Chan even more angry and she yelled, "You bastard, you dare to play tricks on me and make me come here for nothing."

"What do you mean I'm playing tricks on you? You were the one who hurriedly took the business card away last night without asking for details. Can you blame me?" Feng Hao said while holding back a smile. "Damn it!" Gu Chan yelled angrily.

The next second, she couldn't bear it anymore and rushed forward to beat Feng Hao up.

Fang Tianyi stood up and opened his arms, blocking Feng Hao tightly, staring at Gu Chan and said, "If you beat him up, who will take you to the Chamber of Commerce later? Do you really want him to lie in bed for a few days, delaying your going to the Chamber of Commerce and delaying his studies for the imperial examinations?"

"You..." Gu Chan was choked speechless.

Feng Hao smiled and said, "It's okay, Miss Fang, you don't have to stop her. She can hit me if she wants. I won't fight back anyway. If she really wants to hurt me, I will just lie down on the bed and enjoy myself!"

"No, I don't want you to get hurt!" Fang Tianyi said with concern.

Gu Chan let out a long breath, suppressed her anger, glanced at the two of them and said, "Alright! It seems that along the way, your relationship has become better and better, right? No wonder you were sitting together and being so affectionate just now, have you already secretly made love?"

"Oh, you naughty girl, what are you talking about? Brother Fenghao and I are innocent." Fang Tianyi covered her little face with her hands and said shyly.

As she said this, her face had turned red all the way to her neck.

Gu Chan rolled her eyes and said with a wicked smile, "Forget it, I am magnanimous and will not bother with a pervert like you. Anyway, I have played a trick on you before, and now you have played a trick on me twice, so we are even now."

"Tell me honestly, what does your relative in Kyoto do? Why can't he even get a business card?" Feng Hao asked.

"She runs a brothel, of course she can't do it." Gu Chan said casually.

After saying that, she walked to the table, sat down, silently poured herself a glass of wine and started drinking.

Feng Hao pressed on, "What is your relationship with this relative?"

"She is my...cousin's wife, I have to call her my cousin's wife." Gu Chan said cunningly.

Whether it is Long Zhen or Yuan Qingyi, they are not much older than her, so arranging them to be cousins ​​is the most appropriate and least likely to arouse suspicion.

Feng Hao squinted his eyes and glanced at Gu Chan. Seeing that something was not right with her, he knew that she was not telling the truth.

But he didn't expose Gu Chan, he just smiled and said, "How about this! I'll take you to the Chamber of Commerce now, and when I come back later, you have to take me to meet your cousins ​​and their wives, and tell them about our relationship."

"That's totally fine! It's not a big deal. If you want to meet them, I'll take you there." Gu Chan said nonchalantly.

"And there's something I don't understand. Since you've already come to Kyoto, why don't you go and stay at your cousin's house, but instead stay in this inn?" Feng Hao suddenly asked.

Gu Chan's heart skipped a beat and she instantly felt guilty.

She had actually neglected this issue a bit in the past few days. At first, she thought that if she didn't stay at Yuanyang Tower, staying at this inn would be more convenient for her to move around. Besides, she didn't know many people in Kyoto, so others wouldn't care.

But she obviously overlooked that Feng Hao was an extremely smart and talented man. Details often determine success or failure. If she couldn't handle this small detail well at the moment, it might really arouse Feng Hao's suspicion, which would cause her a lot of trouble later.
