In the conference room.
Seeing that everyone had left, Gu Chenan stretched lazily and stood up from his chair.
"Sister Fang, keeping me alone here, do you want to relive last night's..."
"Gu Chenan! Don't be so presumptuous!" Fang Yuanyuan glared angrily.
Gu Chenan: ?
[How did she become so cold after just one night?]
[Last night when you wrapped your legs around my waist, you weren't acting like this, hey!]
Fang Yuanyuan stood up and pointed at Gu Chenan, saying, "Let me tell you, although I just protected you in the meeting, it doesn't mean I'll let you off the hook."
"You killed Gong Fei and then used others to eliminate the Li Family of Suhang. You're even brazen enough to come to our Black Owl. I'll settle this score with you!"
Gu Chenan pouted.
"Sister Fang, you could have just accepted Cao Mang's deduction earlier. After all, I already told you last night that I killed Gong Fei."
"I..."
Fang Yuanyuan faltered, swallowed, and then tilted her head back, folding her arms across her chest. "I have my own plans. It's none of your business!"
"Oh?"
Gu Chenan raised an eyebrow and approached Fang Yuanyuan, slapping her round, full bottom. "Could it be... you can't bear to part with me?"
Fang Yuanyuan's cheeks immediately turned red, her mouth slightly open, flustered.
"You... you watch yourself. I'm your boss!"
"Of course, I know that."
Gu Chenan walked in front of Fang Yuanyuan, pressing close to her body. "Then, boss, please."
Please?
Fang Yuanyuan was stunned for a moment, then quickly reacted, flustered again.
"I... I... I'm warning you, I can at any time... mmph!"
Before she could finish speaking, her mouth was covered by Gu Chenan's.
After a long while.
Gu Chenan lifted his head: "Thanks just now, Sister Fang."
Fang Yuanyuan said tsundere-like: "Don't thank me. I told you I won't let you off!"
"Alright." Gu Chenan nodded and said: "Then I'll wait for you to come find me to avenge Gong Fei anytime."
After saying this, he pinched Fang Yuanyuan's blushing cheeks and turned to leave.
"Wait, I didn't say you could go!"
From behind, Fang Yuanyuan's voice came.
Gu Chenan turned back: "Is there anything else, Sister Fang?"
Fang Yuanyuan lowered her head, fidgeting with her fingers: "Tonight at ten, come to my room. There's something..."
Gu Chenan grinned.
"Want to roll your eyes and do the scissors hand again? Understood!"
"You... speak properly!" Fang Yuanyuan said angrily.
Gu Chenan smiled, turned around, and waved as he left the conference room.
...
After the meeting.
The whole organization was in chaos.
Originally, everyone thought Gu Chenan would surely die today, but unexpectedly, the leader Fang Yuanyuan didn't believe at all that Gu Chenan had killed Gong Fei.
This shocked everyone greatly.
"What? Impossible, didn't Brother Cao say it was Gu Chenan who killed Gong Fei?"
"I don't know. We were expecting to see how the leader would deal with Gu Chenan. Who could have imagined things would develop like this?"
"Do you think there's a possibility that Gu Chenan really didn't kill Gong Fei?"
"Hiss~ Since the leader thinks so... it's possible!"
"Damn, why are we still calling him Gu Chenan? We should call him Mr. Gu!"
...
"Chenan, what did the leader say to you when she kept you in the conference room?"
As soon as Gu Chenan entered the room, he saw Hoshino Kannon standing with her hands on her hips, looking haughty.
"Want to know?" Gu Chenan stretched lazily, casually taking off his jacket.
"Don't keep me in suspense, tell me quickly!"
Gu Chenan smiled and said, "She told me to go to her room tonight."
"Ah?"
Hoshino Kannon was stunned.
"How on earth did you win over the leader? Even if you're handsome as jade, dashing and suave, with deep features, dignified appearance, sexy body, striking looks, refined and elegant, clear-eyed and good-looking, with sword-like eyebrows and starry eyes, and an imposing manner, there's no reason you could have won over the leader so easily, right?"
"How long have you been in the organization?"
Hoshino Kannon was full of confusion.
Gu Chenan, however, was stunned.
[Damn, with all those adjectives, are you writing a novel?]
"You've said it all, how else could I win her over? It's because I'm handsome." Gu Chenan shrugged.
"So are you really going tonight?" Hoshino Kannon seemed a bit reluctant.
"Jealous?" Gu Chenan raised an eyebrow.
"No!" Hoshino Kannon pouted and shook her head.
Gu Chenan smiled without saying anything. He had no choice; originally, he didn't want anything to happen with Fang Yuanyuan either.
But after the Gong Fei incident, he had to do this.
Otherwise, not only would he and Hoshino Kannon be hunted down by Black Owl, but Lin Yu would also become one of the Twelve Owls.
Gu Chenan was sacrificing himself for the plan, plus Fang Yuanyuan was that twin-tailed loli.
Hiss... this wasn't a bad deal.
"We've been in Yanjing for so long but haven't gone out to play. Shall we go out for a bit later?" Gu Chenan asked.
Hoshino Kannon brightened up: "A date?"
"Mm." Gu Chenan nodded.
"Yay!"
Just then, there was a knock on the door.
"Who is it?"
"Mr. Gu, Miss Hoshino, it's me, Wan Ke."
"Oh, what's the matter?" Gu Chenan asked.
"It's like this, Mr. Gu. Now that you've become one of the Twelve Owls, the organization has arranged two squads for you. You're now the direct supervisor of these two squads, so you should meet them," Wan Ke said.
Hm?
Gu Chenan was stunned.
Then he quickly realized that within Black Owl, each of the Owls had their own squads under them.
Now that Gu Chenan was one of the Twelve Owls, the organization would certainly arrange his own squads for him.
"Damn, why now? What about our sweet date?" Hoshino Kannon said helplessly.
Gu Chenan patted Hoshino Kannon's head and said, "It's okay, we'll go after I'm done with this."
He put on his jacket and opened the door.
"Let's go."
Led by Wan Ke, Gu Chenan came to an office.
"Mr. Gu, this office will be yours from now on."
Looking at the "Gu" character hanging on the office door, Gu Chenan nodded.
Entering the office, two figures sitting on the sofa immediately stood up.
"Mr. Gu!" They both bowed slightly.
These two were wearing the same black leather jackets. One had a blind eye, while the other had dyed yellow hair.
"Mr. Gu, I'm Li Chuan, the captain of the first squad," said the one with the blind eye.
"Mr. Gu, I'm Wang Meng, the captain of the second squad," the yellow-haired one spoke.
"Mr. Gu, from today on, these two are your subordinates. You can deploy them as you wish," Wan Ke introduced briefly and then said, "Mr. Gu, you can talk in detail. I won't disturb you."
With that, he left the office, gently closing the door.
Gu Chenan looked at Li Chuan, then at Wang Meng.
Finally, he pointed at Wang Meng's yellow hair and said, "You, dye your hair black later!"
Wang Meng was stunned, but although he didn't understand why, he still nodded and said, "Yes, Mr. Gu."
Gu Chenan nodded.
[Damn it, giving me a yellow-haired subordinate, are you treating me like a cuckold?]
[Is this NTR?]
[Don't even think about it!]
