The Golden-Eyed Life of a Security Guard

Lanting Villa is very large. The ground floor is for dining, the second floor has private rooms, and the third floor is generally only used to entertain VIPs and distinguished guests.

Given Wu Yueming's status, the table he booked was naturally on the third floor.

Although Lanting Villa is already one of the top high-end hotels, the lobby on the first floor is still very crowded with many diners.

Led by the waiter, the three arrived at the Yalan Pavilion on the third floor. Two very attractive female waitresses were waiting in the private room and accompanied them throughout the visit.

For the past seven or eight days, apart from the meals that Song Lan brought him, Gu Yuebai has basically been eating boxed lunches from the cafeteria. He really feels that nothing tastes good anymore.

We ordered seven or eight dishes, all of them spicy: spicy fish, spicy bullfrog, crispy pork ribs... we ordered whatever was delicious.

Gu Yuebai ate without any decorum, making the waiters nearby shake their heads in disapproval.

They looked exactly like refugees fleeing famine, as if they had never eaten before.

Wu Yueming picked up a glass of red wine and kept toasting Gu Yuebai and Song Lan until Gu Yuebai was a little tipsy. Then he took out a bank card and said, "Dr. Gu, you've really worked so hard these past few days. This is just a small token of my appreciation. As promised, I'll thank you later. It's just a small token of my appreciation."

Gu Yuebai blushed and his words were a little slurred. He nudged Wu Yueming and mumbled, "It's nothing, hehe. I haven't even checked how much you gave me on that card last time."

He casually slipped the card into his pocket, not caring if it fell out.

Wu Yueming quickly said to Song Lan, "Xiao Song, I think you should keep the card for him for a while. You can hand it over to him after he sobers up. I'm really worried. There are ten million in there, after all."

Song Lan smiled awkwardly and explained for Gu Yuebai, "He doesn't usually drink much, but he looks like he's had too much to drink today. Okay, I'll keep it for now."

She reached out, took the card out, and put it into her LV bag.

The waitresses next to them exchanged a glance, both looking surprised.

The young man sitting next to me, who looked to be in his early twenties but was actually a multi-millionaire, was actually quite drunk.

Judging from his clothes and appearance, he doesn't seem like a rich person. The funniest thing is that he has no manners when he eats or sits. It seems that you can't judge a book by its cover.

Gu Yuebai sat down next to Wu Yueming, shaking his head, and said slowly, "Mr. Wu, these three thousand workers have suffered a lot. You'll probably have to spend some more money to raise their wages or something, otherwise it won't look good."

"Don't worry about that. I've already had the finance department allocate the funds. It's 10,000 yuan per person, and during illness, it's paid leave. Everyone gets paid." Wu Yueming still had some guts when it came to this matter.

However, losing tens of millions at once still gave him a bit of a stomachache.

Gu Yuebai nodded with satisfaction. "On behalf of more than three thousand workers, thank you."

"Not at all, it's what I should do."

If Wu Yueming doesn't do this, it will be difficult to silence public opinion. Even if the workers don't cause trouble for him, the government won't let him off easily.

Wu Yueming is a smart man; he knows how to handle these matters.

Song Lan, who was standing to the side, was very pleased with Gu Yuebai's kindness and righteousness after hearing their conversation.

If the person you like has good character, then they are truly good, which proves that she made the right choice.

She looked at Gu Yuebai with a slight smile, extremely satisfied.

Ring ring.

Song Lan's phone rang.

She answered a phone call: "Oh. Okay."

Song Lan glanced at the slightly drunk Gu Yuebai, her expression becoming subtle, her delicate brows furrowing, and replied, "We're at Lanting Manor, have her come over."

While Song Lan was on the phone, Wu Yueming was most concerned about the Imperial View Mansion. His investment in the Imperial View Mansion had exceeded 18 billion yuan, and this incident had cost him nearly 100 million yuan more.

He couldn't let Imperial View Mansion fall apart like this.

"Dr. Gu, what do you think we should do about Imperial View Mansion? When can the workers return to work?"

Gu Yuebai narrowed his eyes, looked at Wu Yueming, and asked, "Have you offended someone? With that person's methods, going to great lengths to stop construction at Dijing Mansion, cause an accident, and even result in a death, all to ruin Dijing Mansion's reputation. Think about it, do you have some kind of business enemy?"

After this incident, Wu Yueming also felt that someone was framing him.

"It should be Li Jiaye from the Lijia Group. We all went to see the land plot for Imperial View Mansion as soon as it came out. The feng shui master surveyed the land and found it to be excellent. Many wealthy businessmen were interested at the time and even wanted to reserve a house there."

Wu Yueming recalled the situation at the time: "During the bidding, I was the one competing fiercely with Lijia Group. However, for some reason, after the bid reached 1 billion, Li Jiaye suddenly left the scene, and I won the land."

Gu Yuebai drank a glass of water, which sobered him up considerably. He asked thoughtfully, "Does the Li family know any wandering sorcerers, Taoist priests, or similar figures?"

"I don't know, but the Li family has always been close to wandering sorcerers and often has dealings with them. Are you saying that the land was cursed by a wandering sorcerer?"

Gu Yuebai snorted softly, tapping his index finger on the table. He said with some apprehension, "That's no ordinary martial arts master. I'm not sure I can defeat him. If things don't go well, I'm afraid I'll be doomed."

"That dangerous?" Wu Yueming frowned.

Have you ever seen a Yin Corpse Demon?

"no."

"But it appeared right in front of you. Thousands of people in the hospital had a mass incident, which you experienced firsthand. That person must have some unorthodox methods, like the Five Ghosts Locking Yin Formation, which is not something ordinary people know."

Wu Yueming stared intently at Gu Yuebai, trying to discern the truth from his expression.

But then he thought again, Gu Yuebai is incredibly capable, he must not be making things up, and he doesn't need to use such an excuse to deceive himself.

He pleaded urgently, "Dr. Gu, please help me. If you help me resolve the issues at Imperial Mansion, I will definitely reward you handsomely."

Gu Yuebai put her arm around Wu Yueming's shoulder. "That harmful thing. I'm definitely going to get rid of it. As for the person behind it, I'm not entirely sure. I'll tell you the results after it's all over."

"Thank you so much. Thank you so much." Wu Yueming quickly picked up his wine glass again and drank with Gu Yuebai.

"I'll do my best." Gu Yuebai didn't dare to make any promises, after all, he had no experience in combat. He had absolutely no experience in this level of fighting. If he messed up, wouldn't he become a laughing stock?

"When would you like to go check out Imperial View Mansion?"

"Go tomorrow at noon."

Wu Yueming clapped his hands, his face beaming with joy.

After a satisfying meal, Gu Yuebai led Song Lan out of the private room. As he looked up, he suddenly saw a woman going down the stairs at the corner.

He felt that the woman's back view was very familiar, as if he had seen her before.

In an instant, a beautiful figure flashed into his mind. He finally remembered—it was the woman he had spent the night with. He ran towards her without thinking, until he reached the corner.

However, the woman had vanished without a trace. Unwilling to give up, Gu Yuebai hurried up to the second floor, checked all the private rooms, and finally went to the lobby on the first floor, but ultimately found nothing.
