Before they worked together, Bai Ran had heard that Gu Qian had a high status as a model in the advertising industry. Furthermore, he had become famous at a young age and had long established a foundation that others did not.

Chen Chen said that Gu Qian had lost both his parents when he was young, had grown up overseas, and had only been a part-time model for a short period of time. Bai Ran had also guessed it, but she did not take it seriously. She felt that Chen Chen’s ability to describe his past with Gu Qian in such detail did not seem like he had made it up casually.

So what was going on?

After some thought, Bai Ran asked, “Mr. Gu, are you living with your parents? Are your parents in Shanghai?”

Gu Qian took a sip of wine and said calmly, “Of course. Our ancestors were all from Shanghai. If I didn’t take care of the business here and some filming missions, I wouldn’t be here. However, I like this place a lot. Since I’m always here, I bought a house and made some businesses here. There have been a lot of things going on here recently, so I can’t go back for the time being. I just picked my parents up and they lived here for a while. I’ll go back to Shanghai after I’m done.”

“By the way, Miss Bai, why are you asking this?” Gu Qian looked up, looking a little puzzled.

Bai Ran’s face instantly turned red and white. She quickly waved her hand and said politely, “It’s nothing. I was just asking casually. Mr. Gu is really filial. You can’t bear to separate from your parents for a moment. Besides, our place is indeed suitable for elderly people to stay.”

Gu Qian smiled and said, “No, no. It’s what I should do. When my mother gave birth to me, she almost had a difficult labor and was not in good health. Later, she even gave birth to my sister and did not recover well. Unfortunately, my sister passed away due to illness a few years ago. They were very sad and could not leave me anymore. I was the only son left. Of course, I had to accompany them well and take care of them.”

Hard labor? Hearing this, Bai Ran was even more convinced.

Gu Qian’s parents were his biological parents and he even had a sister. It was not what Chen Chen had said at all.

Bai Ran’s heart was in a mess. What was going on? Was what they said true?

In order to hide her awkwardness, Bai Ran quickly said, “I see. It’s really a pity. I hope you two are fine.”

Gu Qian smiled casually and said, “Thank you, Miss Bai.”

With that, he took the decanter and poured red wine for Bai Ran.

From the corner of her eye, Bai Ran saw an obvious callus between Gu Qian’s right thumb and index finger. Her gaze could not help but turn over.

Even if it was an ordinary person, Bai Ran knew that this kind of old cocoon was only found in long-term gun training. Otherwise, it would not have only appeared there.

If Chen Chen said that Gu Qian was a mercenary, then he should hold a gun often. It seemed like this was true.

When she thought of the cave on Mount Yunwu, Gu Qian was very skilled and his arm strength was very strong. This was not the physique an ordinary person should have.

Bai Ran suddenly became alert and felt that she should not question Chen Chen like this.

What if Gu Qian had deliberately said this to confuse her? What if it was Ah Xuan who had formed an alliance with Gu Qian?

However, the next second, she felt a little guilty. This reason was too unreasonable.

What reason did Gu Qian and Yu Xuan have to lie to him? Even if Yu Xuan did not want to see Chen Chen reconcile with her and lie to her, what reason did Gu Qian have?

Gu Qian did not know Yu Xuan at all before!

Looking at Bai Ran’s hand, the vigilant Gu Qian suddenly realized something.

He retracted his hand unnaturally. This scene was noticed by the equally vigilant Yu Xuan.

Yu Xuan’s reaction was extremely agile. Before Bai Ran could think too much, she immediately said, “Mr. Gu, business has been so busy recently. Do you still have time to exercise? I heard you’re good at playing horizontal bar. You were almost chosen to compete in the city!”

Gu Qian immediately understood and quickly said, “Of course. No matter how busy I am with work, I can’t forget to exercise. As models, the most important thing is not to train my figure. I realized that the horizontal bar is the most effective against me. I have strong arms and muscles in my shoulders. Only then can I support my clothes, hehe.”

As Gu Qian spoke, he smiled and gestured with his hand.

Everything was smooth and flawless. Bai Ran’s only doubt was instantly dispelled.

She could not help but believe that Chen Chen was lying to her.

From the beginning to the end, from the general direction to the details, it was actually different from what Gu Qian had said…
