Gu Juexi’s comment caught Du Mingsheng by surprise. He put the coffee cup on the table and said with a smile, “I am incomparable to Brother Gu, of course. I only know some simple tricks.”

“I remember you being very smart since you were young, you don’t have to be so humble now,” Gu Juexi said. He put his cup on the table and leaned back against the sofa.

Du Mingsheng looked down anxiously, as if he wanted to hide something that was displayed in his eyes.

After a while, Du Mingsheng looked up at Gu Juexi and said in a straightforward manner, “Brother Gu, what is the real agenda of this meeting?”

Gu Juexi crossed his right leg over his left leg, adjusting himself to a comfortable posture while peering at Du Mingsheng’s hands that had clenched into fists and quickly unclenched.

The young man was still a little too green.

“Nothing, really. It’s just that I heard Auntie Yuan mention that you were at B City, and my mom has been pestering me to invite you to my house for dinner. She misses you very much,” Gu Juexi said flatly, avoiding the real agenda.

“How is Madam doing lately? Is she alright? She was always good to me every time I visited Gu Mansion when I was a kid. I’ve been occupied with the company lately, but I’ll visit her when I’m free,” Du Mingsheng said sincerely, smiling fondly.

Gu Juexi clasped his hands together, his eyes focusing on Du Mingsheng. “Mingsheng, what am I to you?”

Du Mingsheng looked at Gu Juexi in surprise. “Young Master, what do you mean?”

Gu Juexi shrugged and continued, “It’s nothing. Are you facing any difficulties at work?”

Du Mingsheng shook his head. “Everything is under control. May I know why you called me here?”
