The next second, the coffee cup was slammed heavily onto the table in front.
In the blink of an eye, Gu Moqian had already stood up and left.
He Qianyun had just hung up the phone when a tall and imposing figure appeared right before her.
The man exuded an aura of noble coldness; his deep black eyes carried an intimidating sharpness, instantly capturing He Qianyun's attention.
Gu Moqian!
Oh my god, to actually see Rongcheng's number one young master here in person! Was she hallucinating?
He Qianyun rubbed her eyes hard—no mistake, it was Mr. Gu!
"What's your name?"
Gu Moqian asked in a cold, detached voice.
Oh my goodness, Gu Moqian was actually talking to her! And he was asking her name!
This domineering CEO-style flirting was so heart-fluttering. Could it be… Gu Moqian had taken a liking to her?
Oh my god, oh my god!
He Qianyun's heart pounded uncontrollably. She hurriedly reached up to tidy her hair, responding coquettishly, "My name is He Qianyun."
He. Qian. Yun.
Excellent. Anyone who dared to bully his woman must really have a death wish.
The cold and stern man suddenly curved his lips into a smile. That gaze, seemingly born from hell itself, sent a chill down He Qianyun's spine.
"Gu…"
He Qianyun had barely uttered one word when Gu Moqian abruptly turned and walked away.
A woman like this—staying even a second longer would dirty his eyes.
As Gu Moqian walked, he pulled out his phone and made a call to Chen Ke: "Investigate a woman named He Qianyun immediately. By tomorrow, I want her gone from Congrong City completely."
After a pause, Gu Moqian added, "Once everything's arranged, bring the Koenigsegg to the central commercial plaza."

In the hallway, Ji Wei frowned slightly, her expression already showing signs of irritation.
He Qianyun had been sent away, but the scumbag in front of her was still blocking the path.
"Ji Chuyang, good dogs don't block the way! You refuse to be human, but you insist on being a dog?"
"Ji Wei, who are you calling a dog?"
Ji Chuyang was enraged by her words, his face darkening visibly.
Ji Wei stared at him fearlessly. "Who else but you, Young Master Ji? You're the only one in my way."
"Ji Wei, looks like you're tired of living!"
Ji Chuyang, filled with fury, raised his fist and swung it toward Ji Wei's face.
However, before the fist landed, it was suddenly restrained mid-air by a powerful force, unable to budge an inch further.
Ji Chuyang's eyes widened in shock as he turned and saw Gu Moqian glaring at him, his expression grim and terrifying, seething with unrestrained rage.
Ji Chuyang's heart skipped a beat.
Before he could recover, a sharp pain shot through his wrist. Gu Moqian forcibly wrenched his fist out of mid-air.
Ji Wei was also surprised to see Gu Moqian.
Wasn't he at the coffee shop? Why had he suddenly come here?
Gu Moqian's cold, dark eyes scanned Ji Chuyang's face briefly before he walked straight to Ji Wei's side. "Did he hurt you?"
"He wanted to, but thankfully, you got here in time," Ji Wei lifted her gaze and smiled at him.
As long as he was here, her heart felt more at ease.
Gu Moqian silently took her hand, and his gaze toward her softened slightly.
"Has the Ji Family been rooted in Rongcheng too long, perhaps thinking of relocating?"
Gu Moqian raised his eyes casually to look at Ji Chuyang, his voice as chilling as shards of ice.
Ji Chuyang's face turned stark white, his heart quaking with dread.
The Ji Family and Gu Family might both be among the top five wealthy families of Rongcheng, but their power was worlds apart—completely incomparable.
If Gu Moqian wanted the Ji Family wiped out, it would merely take the twitch of his finger.
Ji Chuyang didn't dare provoke Gu Moqian. The plan to drug Ji Wei last night had been orchestrated under Ji Shanshan's instigation. Moreover, Gu Moqian's unexpected appearance had left him anxious and unsettled, his mind haunted ever since.
