Possessive & Addicted: The CEO Could Never Let Her Go

Chapter 203: Chapter 203: The Black Gold Showdown

Pei Long was somewhat puzzled by Gu Xiaozhan. Oil is like black gold, with immense potential, and if Gu Xiaozhan seizes the opportunity, he could earn more money. But why isn’t he taking action?

On the contrary, Gu Xiaozhan seemed to be pushing the oil towards the President Mansion!

”Xiao Zhan, are you serious?” Pei Long was somewhat unsure of his intentions.

Gu Xiaozhan’s voice was solemn and cold: ”Any conversation with Your Excellency is always serious.”

”Alright then!” Pei Long was secretly delighted, but did not show it in his tone, ”I’ll set up a task force to investigate what’s going on! However, Xiao Zhan, you have plenty of talent on your side, if I need help, I hope you’ll send someone my way!”

”Alright.” Gu Xiaozhan straightforwardly agreed.

After that, there was no sound in the office.

Mu Anhan was also lying in bed. Although her little mind was clever, she found politics tiresome, and she couldn’t understand the power play between Gu Xiaozhan and the President Mansion.

But there was one thing she was sure of: she wouldn’t allow anyone to harm Gu Xiaozhan.

She lay there, unable to sleep.

If she wanted to protect Gu Xiaozhan, wouldn’t she need to learn about oil too?

Suddenly, Mu Anhan thought of her elder brother!

Her elder brother seemed to be an expert in oil exploration; however, he went to college and left home early, with little interaction with her. Her relationship with her elder brother wasn’t as close as with her third brother.

But after all, blood is thicker than water!

She vaguely remembered that in a past life, there was a massive oil war where her elder brother became a talent that many sought after. Gu Xiaozhan also extended an olive branch to him, but because her relationship with Gu Xiaozhan was strained, and her third brother was crippled, her elder brother blamed Gu Xiaozhan and refused to work for him.

Her elder brother became a talent for the President Mansion but was not valued. He wasn’t allowed to participate in any oil exploration work and was kept under house arrest, unused by anyone else. Despite his capabilities, he became despondent, developed depression, and attempted suicide several times...

Mu Anhan abruptly sat up; she couldn’t let her elder brother repeat the same mistakes.

The root of all this was her relationship with Gu Xiaozhan.

Moreover, she had to heal her third brother’s legs as soon as possible so that her elder brother wouldn’t be swayed by people from the President Mansion.

Mu Anhan had to visit the hospital today to understand Li Qivi’s recovery status and find more patients to treat, so she could treat her third brother.

Mu Anhan thought about this and opened the door, walking out to Gu Xiaozhan’s office chair, ”Husband, I want to go to the hospital.”

Gu Xiaozhan raised an eyebrow, hadn’t she been ignoring him all along? Now she was seeking him out? Wasn’t she just throwing a tantrum? Now everything’s fine?

Mu Anhan obediently said, ”I know what I did wrong.”

Before he could ask again, she quickly explained, ”Last night in the restaurant, I dealt with Feng Siling and Tom by myself without telling you, husband. I shouldn’t have made you worry, I was wrong! I’ll definitely correct it next time.”

She realized this just now when she heard Gu Xiaozhan mention that he had Lie Huo teach Tom a lesson.

Seeing that his expression softened, Mu Anhan knew she had said the right thing. She reached out to grab his arm, gently shaking it, ”Husband, I just want to train my independence and self-reliance. It’s not that I don’t want you to know, it’s just that you’re so busy. I hope to become your right hand, not your burden!”
