An hour later, in the president's office on the top floor of the Dongdao Group office building.

Although the location of the Dongdao Group office building is not like Victory Group's, situated in a prime area, it is still very good. The modern-style office building is located in the bustling district of Lin'an City, and from the large floor-to-ceiling windows on the top floor, one can easily take in the dazzling night view of Lin'an City.

At this moment, Zhou Huchen was quietly sitting in the president's office. He had long changed out of that rather expensive suit, and instead was wearing a black, tight-fitting outfit.

Wearing this black outfit, Zhou Huchen's aura was even sharper than when he was in the auction hall. At a glance, one could feel a faint sense of oppression!

In his hand, he was holding the Rope-Curled Sword, with a blade as thin as a cicada's wing. At this moment, the Rope-Curled Sword's blade was slightly shaking, its cold light exceptionally dazzling in the dimly lit president's office.

Looking at the shimmering Rope-Curled Sword in his hand, Zhou Huchen's expression was as dark as water, giving off a sense of oppression.

This aura was oppressive and stuffy, making the already dim office even more stifling and unbearable.

It's no wonder, after all, just an hour ago, he had just spent three billion yuan to buy a Rope-Curled Sword with a bidding price of only fifteen million!

Spending twenty times the price to buy an ancient sword, this feeling made him very unhappy!

Recalling everything that happened in the auction hall just now, Zhou Huchen was extremely angry, especially when he thought of the sounds of enthusiastic applause from many bigwigs, which only made his blood surge with renewed anger!

Buzz!

Thinking of this, the blade of the Rope-Curled Sword in Zhou Huchen's hand suddenly trembled, and with the sound of a swish in the air, a silver light flashed, instantly slicing a thriving potted plant beside Zhou Huchen in half!

"Huchen, even if you've lost three billion, you can't take it out on a potted plant!"

As soon as the potted plant was sliced in half, the door of the president's office opened. A tall, fair young man walked in slowly, sat directly in the president's chair, and smiled at Zhou Huchen.

"Young Master"

Seeing this young man, Zhou Huchen was initially stunned, then respectfully said, "I messed up this auction, making the family lose three billion!"

In his words, Zhou Huchen's voice was low, extremely humble, completely different from the arrogant and unruly character he displayed at the auction!

"Never mind, Huchen"

Hearing Zhou Huchen's words, the young man waved his hand and said lightly, "It's just three billion, no need to worry too much. Just consider it as if I lost a card game, it's no big deal!"

In his words, the young man's tone was calm, with no fluctuation, as if three billion yuan was only three hundred yuan to him, barely enough to stir his thoughts!

"Thank you, Young Master"

Hearing the young man's words, Zhou Huchen replied respectfully.

"Huchen, it's only three billion, the family only needs a little operation, and this money can be earned back in a very short time"

Hearing Zhou Huchen's words, a sharp glint flashed in the young man's eyes. He looked at the night view of Lin'an City and then said lightly, "Besides, although your three billion was spent unjustly, there is a piece of information whose value is entirely comparable to the three billion you spent!"

As he spoke, the young man's voice slightly rose, carrying a rather playful meaning.

"Worth three billion?"

Hearing this, Zhou Huchen's body slightly shivered, he looked at the young man and said, "Young Master, please forgive this martial artist for not understanding your meaning..."

At this moment, Zhou Huchen couldn't comprehend what kind of information could possess such enormous value.

Hearing Zhou Huchen's words, the young man showed a slight smile, he slowly turned, looked at Zhou Huchen, and said, "Huchen, you only see you spent three billion to buy a sword, but you missed a detail, which is, whose sword is this?"

Whose sword is this?

Upon hearing this, Zhou Huchen was slightly stunned, then he looked at the Rope-Curled Sword in his hand, paused for a moment, and said, "Young Master, isn't this Rope-Curled Sword the personal sword of Gu Yanzhou from the Gu Family?"

"That's right"

Hearing Zhou Huchen's words, the young man nodded and then said, "Huchen, since you know this is Gu Yanzhou's sword, you should also know that this sword has always been inseparable from Gu Yanzhou!"

As he spoke, the young man's voice was steady, giving a sense of maturity beyond his years. He looked at Zhou Huchen and said, "The Rope-Curled Sword, originally inseparable from Gu Yanzhou, is now publicly auctioned at an antique auction. What do you think this signifies?"

With this speech, the young man's voice was very light, carrying a somewhat meaningful smile.

Hearing the young man's words, Zhou Huchen's eyes suddenly widened, this sentence was like a wake-up call, making him instantly understand!

The Rope-Curled Sword, originally inseparable from Gu Yanzhou, is now publicly auctioned at an antique auction, often representing only one result!

"Gu Yanzhou is dead!"

Thinking of this, Zhou Huchen said, his words full of gravity and shock!

Gu Yanzhou and the Rope-Curled Sword were inseparable, now that the Rope-Curled Sword is publicly auctioned, this alone is enough to indicate that Gu Yanzhou has died!

"Exactly!"

Hearing Zhou Huchen's words, the young man nodded and said, "The activity range of the Gu Family has always been in Yunzhong City, and now the Rope-Curled Sword appears publicly auctioned in Lin'an City, why do you think this is?"

Now this young man seemed like a seasoned detective, unraveling the clues step by step, guiding Zhou Huchen, his words full of subtle laughter.

Gu Yanzhou is dead, and the Rope-Curled Sword was publicly auctioned in Lin'an City…

At this moment, under the young man's guidance, Zhou Huchen thought for a moment, his body shivered, he looked at the young man in disbelief and said, "Young Master, are you saying, Gu Yanzhou died in Lin'an City!?"

In his words, Zhou Huchen's sentence was filled with a sense of shock!

"Exactly!"

Hearing Zhou Huchen's words, the young man smiled slightly, then said, "Huchen, Gu Yanzhou and the Rope-Curled Sword have always been inseparable, now that the Rope-Curled Sword is publicly auctioned in Lin'an City, and Gu Yanzhou is silent, this is entirely enough to prove that Gu Yanzhou has indeed died, and died in Lin'an City!"
