Chapter 1168: Gu Qingcheng Was Very Willing to Accept
It was so detailed that even things like what was discussed, what food he ate, what time he bathed… and what time he slept were recorded.
Lu Jinnan got up and walked to the desk. He stood next to Fu Huai’an and began flipping through Ma Yuhao’s movement records. After skimming through them, he discovered that Ma Yuhao truly lived like that dead young man in terms of behavior and lifestyle.
Gu Qingcheng’s gaze was calm, but his expression, which was clear one moment and dark the next… indicated that he was very interested.
“Gu Qingcheng found his older brother and arranged a time to meet, but Gu Qingcheng got into a car accident and died. As Gu Qingcheng’s only kin, his older brother buried Gu Qingcheng’s ashes. Using this opportunity… Old Gu will appear before everyone using another identity! Hence, Old Gu… hone your photography skills well. Look at Ma Yuhao’s photography style in recent years, and try to emulate it…”
Gu Qingcheng nodded. This meant he agreed!
Compared to not seeing Yun Liuli for a few years, Gu Qingcheng was very willing to accept such an arrangement.
Gu Qingcheng took a deep puff of his cigarette. All these years, other than the times he was with Yun Liuli, very few matters could make Gu Qingcheng’s heart beat as wildly as it was beating right now.
“Mainly, as our subordinate, Ma Yuhao will follow our orders! I think it’s indeed feasible…” Lu Jinnan set down Ma Yuhao’s movement records as he looked up and said this. He looked towards Gu Qingcheng.
“But, how are we going to deal with Ma Yuhao after this?”
“Just leave him with Cen Mo!” Fu Huai’an said.
Although he was one of them, who could guarantee this person would never betray them in this lifetime?
So, the best way was to keep him under tabs. It would be most appropriate to leave him with Cen Mo…
Moreover, this person had superb tolerance, so he might be of great use to Cen Mo.
It wasn’t that Fu Huai’an didn’t trust the people he groomed, but… since it concerned Gu Qingcheng’s safety from now on, Fu Huai’an had to be cautious.
When doing something like this, the usual course of action was to kill Ma Yuhao, as that would be the safest for them!
“Then, let word spread that Old Gu is looking for his kin first?” Tang Zheng asked.
Fu Huai’an shook his head. “It’d be too deliberate to let word out now. Instead, if we continue keeping this under wraps and catch those people eyeing Old Gu off guard, it will appear more realistic.”
After all, with Gu Qingcheng’s identity, if he let out word that he was looking for his kin, those eyeing Gu Qingcheng and waiting to grab hold of his weakness would certainly not be able to sit still. When that happened, it wouldn’t be as convenient for them to do many things.
Moreover, based on how secretive their organization was, to be able to protect Gu Qingcheng’s adopted daughter under such strict surveillance, if they were to leak out news that Gum Qingcheng was looking for his kin and his older brother were to appear right after he died, it would look too deliberate.
“It’ll be best if we don’t appear to have any movement and let the news be revealed suddenly…” said Fu Huai’an. “The people in our organization have always been tight-lipped.”
“Were you the one who came up with this idea?” Lu Jinnan asked Fu Huai’an.
The reason Lu Jinnan asked was that he felt that with Fu Huai’an’s character, he always did only things he was sure of. But he clearly hadn’t made comprehensive preparations for this plan, so it was like this idea had just struck him.
“Today, Xiao Nuan told me that Fang Yan plans to let Yun Liuli enter the entertainment industry. So, it suddenly struck me…” Fu Huai’an said.
Indeed, he was suddenly struck with this idea…
“Enter the entertainment industry?” Gu Qingcheng frowned.
Gu Qingcheng knew that the entertainment industry was complicated and didn’t appear to be very willing.
“Don’t worry…” Fu Huai’an said, “Fang Yan and Xiao Nuan will be watching over Xiao Liuli!”
Gu Qingcheng was silent momentarily before nodding.
Yun Liuli had yet to find something she liked after all these years, so it might be a good thing for her to try more new stuff.
“Since we’ve reached a consensus, let’s begin preparing!” Fu Huai’an said to Gu Qingcheng, “From today onwards, carefully study Jacob Bellucci’s movements and practice imitating him. Strive to act in an identical manner!”
Gu Qingcheng nodded.
Fu Huai’an then said to Tang Zheng, “You need to inform Cen Mo about this, but we need to keep this to the five of us to avoid complications. Tang Zheng… make a forecast of Jacob Bellucci’s movements for at least the next two years based on his past records. He’ll need to modify his behavior accordingly.”
Tang Zheng nodded. “Leave it to me!”
“Then let me settle Ma Yuhao’s matter!” Lu Jinnan looked at Fu Huai’an.
Lu Jinnan was injured. Although it was a minor injury, Fu Huai’an had initially wanted to let Lu Jinnan rest.
Knowing Lu Jinnan wanted to do his part for Gu Qingcheng, Fu Huai’an nodded. “Okay!”
“This plan is highly risky…” Lu Jinnan said, “I’ll strive to do it as best I can and make the risk as low as possible.”
Tang Zheng, however, smiled. “Although there’s risk involved, Old Gu need not live like a rat in the sewers, and us brothers can continue hanging out together. I feel it’s worth it.”
Listening to Tang Zheng’s optimistic view, Fu Huai’an said, “Once Old Gu becomes Jacob Bellucci, he’ll be Jacob Bellucci and not Old Gu. I hope you two clearly recognize this. In the future… if we sit together with Jacob Bellucci like this, it’ll arouse suspicions.”
Tang Zheng and Lu Jinnan both kept quiet.
But so long as they could see Gu Qingcheng, see him live well, Tang Zheng and Lu Jinnan could accept this outcome.
“Then, it’s best not to tell Xiao Liuli about this,” Tang Zheng said to Gu Qingcheng.
Gu Qingcheng kept quiet for a long time before nodding.
“Can Old Gu still be with Xiao Liuli?” Lu Jinnan asked.
Fu Huai’an smiled slightly. “When Yun Liuli sees Jacob Bellucci, who resembles Gu Qingcheng so much, it’s natural for her to court him. It’s even normal for her to pester Jacob Bellucci and ask if he’s Gu Qingcheng! So it’s better if we keep it from her and let her do what she would naturally do.”
The most important reason for letting Gu Qingcheng retire was Yun Liuli.
Therefore, regarding Yun Liuli’s reaction, Fu Huai’an had deduced in his heart countless times. Ultimately, he decided it’d be best to let Yun Liuli react naturally. On the contrary, it might be a bad idea to tell the girl beforehand and let her deliberately distance herself from him.
They agreed upon it. This was a risk to Gu Qingcheng, but it was also an opportunity.
Although Gu Qingcheng was a cautious man, at the thought of Yun Liuli’s vibrant smile, he felt it was worth taking the risk. He didn’t want Yun Liuli to have to hide from people with him…
He was even less willing for Yun Liuli to lead a vagrant life with him, to have to move to a new place every six months and thus not be able to make friends everywhere they went.
Yun Liuli had always kept her heart closed to people. Here, she liked Lin Nuan… Bai Xiaonian, Tuan Tuan, and Yuan Yuan, and there were also the new friends she made in school!
Yun Liuli started developing feelings of friendship, kinship… and all kinds of complex emotions. Gu Qingcheng didn’t want to destroy Yun Liuli’s original way of life.
Thus, Gu Qingcheng was willing to take this risk.
