Chapter 488 Something's Wrong
"I have a feeling something's not right; we should be careful," Duan Yujing said cautiously.
Three days later, the family decided to host a banquet for their friend at "Tingfeng Pavilion".
"Tingfeng Pavilion" is an antique building located in a bustling part of the city.
The pavilions and towers, with their flying eaves and bracket sets, carved beams and painted rafters, exude an elegant atmosphere.
The red lanterns at the entrance swayed gently in the breeze, as if welcoming the guests who were about to arrive.
Li Yan and Duan Yujing decided to arrive a little later to surprise their friend.
The three siblings arrived at the restaurant first.
Inside the restaurant, the soft lighting and melodious music create a warm and comfortable atmosphere.
The table was set with exquisite tableware and fresh flowers, exuding a faint floral fragrance.
Gu Tingyan, Gu Tingyu, and Gu Suiwan sat at the dining table, waiting quietly.
Gu Tingyan was dressed in a neat suit, his eyes revealing a sense of composure and calmness.
His fingers tapped lightly on the table, a vague unease creeping into his heart.
Gu Tingyu, dressed in stylish casual wear, seemed somewhat absent-minded, glancing at the door from time to time as if anticipating something.
Gu Suiwan was wearing an elegant dress, looking somewhat uneasy.
A short while later, Tony Leung Ka-fai appeared.
He was dressed in designer brands, exuded a powerful aura, and displayed the demeanor of an industry leader in every gesture.
He had a smile on his face, but there seemed to be something unfathomable hidden in that smile.
"Children, it's been a long time! You've all grown up and become more and more successful."
Tony Leung Ka-fai's voice was loud and enthusiastic as he strode toward the dining table, his eyes scanning the three siblings.
The three siblings quickly got up to greet them and exchanged pleasantries.
"Uncle Liang, it's been a long time. You still look as energetic as ever," Gu Tingyan said politely.
But his eyes held a scrutinizing gaze as he carefully observed Tony Leung's every move.
Gu Tingyu smiled and said, "Yes, Uncle Liang, you'll have to stay longer this time."
Although I felt some resistance, I still maintained a polite demeanor on the surface.
"Uncle Liang, thank you for your help over the years," Gu Suiwan said softly.
After exchanging pleasantries, everyone took their seats.
Suddenly a woman walked in.
She was dressed in a gorgeous gown, with a graceful figure and a beautiful face.
She is Tony Leung Ka-fai's daughter, Leung Ka-yan.
Liang Jiaxin's gaze immediately fell on Gu Tingyan, a hint of surprise and admiration flashing in her eyes.
She walked straight to Gu Tingyan and sat down next to him, smiling as she said, "Brother Tingyan, it's been a long time! We grew up together, don't you remember?"
Her voice was soft and melodious, and she had a sweet smile on her face, as if she was very familiar with Gu Tingyan.
Gu Tingyan was slightly taken aback.
He didn't have a strong impression of Leung Ka-yan, but out of politeness, he smiled and replied, "Hmm, I vaguely remember her. Hello, Ka-yan."
He was somewhat wary, sensing that Liang Jiaxin's enthusiasm was a bit too deliberate.
Liang Jiaxin, however, seemed oblivious to Gu Tingyan's unusual behavior and continued excitedly, "Brother Tingyan, how have you been all these years? I often thought of you when I was abroad."
She kept trying to find topics to chat with Gu Tingyan.
Gu Tingyan felt increasingly uneasy and gave Liang Jiaxin a perfunctory response, while simultaneously gesturing to Gu Tingyu and Gu Suiwan with his eyes.
Gu Tingyu and Gu Suiwan also noticed the unusual atmosphere. They exchanged a glance, their eyes filled with confusion.
