Chapter 189: A Thunderclap on a Clear Day

  Gu Mei turned her head back, and the one who spoke was a pretty good-looking man, whose eyes seemed quite familiar.

  "You are......" Gu Mian looked at him with some uncertainty.

  That person smiled slightly and said: "Ji Bao Shan Fang."

  Ji Bao Shan Fang?

  Tang Ming!

  This is the Zhou who followed Tang Ming to Jibao Mountain Villa last time to choose a rhinoceros horn cup... Zhou Kai.

  "Hello Mr Zou." Gu Ming thought of his name and quickly flashed a smile.

  "What a coincidence! I didn't expect to run into you here. You must be the person Yu Xiao mentioned was coming over for appraisal?" Zou Kai shook hands with Gu Mian.

  "Really, Mr. Zou, what brings you here?" Gu Mian looked at Zou Kai curiously.

  "It's not for these things on the table." Zou Kai smiled and looked at Gu Mian: "Miss Gu, have you finished reading?"

  "Not yet, just started. Do you want to watch too?" Gu Mian heard Zou Kai say this, although she wasn't clear what was going on, but the person responsible for bringing her in didn't stop Zou Kai from entering, so she guessed that Zou Kai should also be here for appraisal or something similar.

  When she was at Jibao Mountain House, she had already seen that Zou Kai was a connoisseur, but she didn't expect that the other party was also an appraiser. Looking at Zou Kai's appearance, he didn't seem like someone who would be involved in this field, and instead looked more like Tang Ming, a rich young master who flew around the world when busy and spent his free time with beautiful women.

  "It's okay, I've already seen everything before you came. I just dropped something earlier, so I came back." Zou Kai walked to the front of the table, slightly bent his waist, and picked up a pair of gloves from under the table.

  Gu Meng glanced over. It was a pair of high-end men's gloves. At this time of year, it wasn't unusual to wear gloves either.

  As she mentioned gloves, her gaze involuntarily shifted to Zou Kai's hands. Zou Kai had a pair of handsome hands that were symmetrical, powerful, and well-defined, clearly belonging to a man.

  Such hands when stroking antiques would give people an inexplicable feeling, but Gu Mian was not thinking of antiques at this moment. On the contrary, it was a scalpel.

  She didn't know why, but she felt that Zou Kai's hands were more suitable for holding a scalpel than antiques.

  "Miss Gu, you continue watching, don't mind me." Zou Kai got the gloves and didn't plan to leave. Instead, he stood aside.

  Gu Mei glanced at Zou Kai and then shifted her attention back to the antique on the table.

  One by one, they touched everything with their left hand, and each object transmitted a sense of warmth. The joyful feeling in their heart continued unabated, while the voices from the bottom of their heart were also different.

  Lin Hai's things, although not the most precious ones, are all genuine. They haven't been swapped out by anyone, which made Gu Mian slightly relieved.

  It's not easy to find someone like Lin Hai. If everything he brought back was fake, it would be disappointing.

  But these things have been seen by outsiders, no matter what the investors think, most of them can't be quietly put into their own pockets, and Gu Mei is relatively happy about this.

  "How is it, Miss Gu? What's the result?" Zou Kai asked patiently, waiting until Gu Mei stopped observing before speaking up.

  "These things are all right." Gu Mian nodded.

  It just so happened that Lin Hai's Qin Sheng and Yu Xiao had arrived at this time, and the two of them had just walked to the door when they heard Gu Mei's words.

  "No problem at all? That's great!" Yu Xiao's face relaxed, looking very happy with the news. However, he didn't forget about Zou Kai beside him and turned to ask, "Mr. Zou, what was the result after you took a look?"

  Zou Kai took two steps forward: "I share the same view as Miss Gu, there's nothing wrong with these things."

  Yu Xiande finally got a unified answer. His mood improved by several degrees, and he immediately said that he wanted to invite everyone to dinner together.

  Gu Mian and Qin Sheng naturally had no objection. Zou Kai also did not decline, and calmly followed everyone out together.

  "What did Lin Hai say?" Gu Mian asked in a low voice, looking at Yu Xiao and Zou Kai who were walking ahead without noticing her and Qin Sheng.

  Qin Sheng saw that Gu Ming could still speak to him so naturally, and the strange feeling in his heart came up again, but he covered it up very well, and on the surface, nothing was revealed.

  "Lin Hai seemed to know very little, he didn't even know that Zhang Jing had contact with other people. However, he admitted that the cave we saw when we arrived was indeed dug by their group and the things inside were already taken away by them. Because there were some things they didn't understand, they were afraid of damaging the valuable antiques if they forced their way in, so they decided to wait for us to arrive before taking action together." Qin Sheng explained in a low voice.

  Gu Xiang nodded slightly, apparently Lin Hai was not particularly trusted by Yang Lin, and the key points were not told to him.

  She didn't doubt Qin Sheng and Yu Xiao's abilities, although she hadn't seen them in action herself, but she had heard people mention the many ways the troops used to extort confessions.

  After getting the result, Gu Mei naturally wanted to call Mr. Qiao, and after Mr. Qiao knew that everything was true, he felt much more at ease. He just regretted a bit that the things Lin Hai had on him were not the most precious ones. He only hoped that Yu Xiao and others could find Yang Lin and others as soon as possible.

  She had just finished checking Lin Hai's things and was about to prepare to continue her work with Mr. Qiao, but after eating with Yu Xiao and Zou Kai, she received a call saying that her grandfather had been hospitalized again.

  This is unbearable, Gu Mei immediately couldn't sit still and immediately wanted to prepare to take a plane to the city.

  Her mother, Ji Yun, comforted her over the phone that Grandpa was not seriously ill, but Gu Mian clearly felt that her mother was just comforting her. If Grandpa were really not seriously ill, her mother would not have called to tell her this news during her time working away from home. Moreover, her mother's voice was shaking when she made the call.

  Grandfather is already old and has had a cerebral thrombosis before, so going to the hospital can be either major or minor, in this matter, I dare not gamble.

  Mr. Qiao certainly couldn't help but let people go, not only letting Gu Mian hurry back, but also comforting Gu Mian a few words, saying that Grandpa was definitely fine.

  The more urgent the situation, the more privileges are highlighted. Yu Xiao knew that Gu Mian had to rush back to the city, so she didn't wait for her to go to the airport and directly arranged for a military helicopter to come over, first taking her to a special military airport, then boarding a military plane to fly directly back to the city.

  At this time, Gu Mei didn't have the energy to care about whether using public facilities for private purposes was appropriate or not. At this time, Grandpa was the most important thing.

  When her father passed away, she was heartbroken. At that time, she was still young and had been living with her grandfather and mother ever since. The last time her grandfather fell ill, it scared her badly, and now another thing happened, she couldn't take it anymore.

  She stared at her phone on the plane, not even noticing that it had been turned off due to takeoff. She was afraid of receiving bad news from her grandfather before she could even return to the city.

  "It's okay." Qin Sheng also followed them back this time, and it just so happened that he had some things to take care of too.

  Gu Mei turned her head and glanced at Qin Sheng, nodded slightly, but didn't say a word. At this moment, she wasn't in the mood to think about whether Qin Sheng following her back had any other meaning.

  Military aircraft are different, much faster than civilian airliners. Gu Mei was so tense that when she got off the plane, her legs softened and she almost didn't stand firm, but Qin Sheng supported her from behind.

  The airport side had also been arranged long ago. As soon as she got off the plane, she got into a military jeep and headed straight to the city's largest hospital.

  Of course, Qin Sheng is also on the way.

  "Mom, where's grandpa? How is he?" Gu Meng rushed into the hospital and asked anxiously as soon as she saw her mom.

  Ji Yun didn't expect Gu Mian to come back so soon and stared blankly as if she didn't dare believe her own eyes.

  "Mom, where's Grandpa?" Gu Mian asked again as she saw her mom didn't respond.

  Ji Yun was asked this way, and she realized that she hadn't been dreaming, Gu Mian had really come back.

  "Mingming, your grandfather..." Ji Yun choked back a sob, unsure whether it was because of Gu Ming's over-excitement or the worry caused by her grandfather's illness, but tears began to fall.

  "What's wrong with Grandpa?" Gu Mian anxiously asked.

  "Sister-in-law, where's Dad? How is he?" At this time, Second Uncle, who was covered in sweat, rushed over hastily, and behind him was Gu Nang with red eyes.

  Ji Yun saw Gu Rong coming, and quickly wiped away her tears: "Dad has been sent to the ICU, he hasn't woken up yet. The doctor said he has a slight concussion, but it's not clear if there will be any aftereffects."

  "How could this be? Grandpa was fine and now he has a concussion and is even being sent to the hospital?" Gu Mian said in disbelief.

  Grandpa's body is not as good as it was before the cerebral hemorrhage, but he has recovered quite well. Normally, he just goes downstairs and walks around a bit, he won't go too far, so how did he suddenly end up in the hospital?

  "I don't know, your grandfather left early in the morning and forgot to bring his phone. I made lunch for him to eat when he came back, but he never showed up. Then I received a call from the hospital and rushed over immediately." Mom tightly grasped Gu's hand.

  Just now she was standing alone outside, but she was so scared that she feared something unexpected would happen to her father-in-law.

  Gu Mei's face was gloomy, her complexion extremely unpleasant, and her heart was also in a mess.

  "Great Aunt, Grandfather won't be in trouble, will he?" Gu Nan's eyes were red as she anxiously looked at Ji Yun.

  Ji Yun suppressed her urge to cry again and patted the head of Gu Nan, who was almost as tall as her: "Nothing will happen, Grandpa won't have anything happen to him."
