Chapter 44: 44: Can’t Wait to Turn Positive_l
Her smile was tender, giving off a comfortable vibe.
What man could resist her?
After being busy for a few days, Gu Yuanzhou must’ve wanted a warm home. I remember that each time Gu Yuanzhou returned from a business trip, he used to spend a lot of time pampering me. He was the type of man who had strong needs for male-female intimacy.
But now…
He needed a woman to release his energy.
He probably couldn’t help himself.
However, his reply surprised me slightly.
He didn’t even get in Ye Mengyan’s car.
“l have a dinner later, so I won’t be going to the Maple Mansion.”
“Eh, Big Brother Gu, I made chicken soup… Why not go back and have some before you leave?”
“There’s no time!”
He himself hailed a taxi, then looked at me, who was standing there in a daze.
“Get in! ”
“Oh, okay!’
I came to my senses and immediately took the suitcase from Ye Mengyan’s hand.
Ye Mengyan looked rather hurt, her eyes filled with tears as they followed Gu
Yuanzhou.
“Big Brother Gu, did I do something to upset you? You don’t even want to speak a few more words to me now?”
“No, it’s not that. I have important matters to attend to… This is a gift I brought back from C City for you! You should go home first!” He actually took out a black gift box and presented it to Ye Mengyan.
Only then did Ye Mengyan break out into a smile. “Thank you, Big Brother Gu, I won’t bother you any longer! Goodbye!”
Ye Mengyan obediently waved at Gu Yuanzhou…
She knew when to retreat and was tender and considerate – quite a seasoned lover indeed.
However, I truly didn’t expect that Gu Yuanzhou would bring a gift for Ye Mengyan.
The car continued to move forward.
While sitting in the back seat, 1 unlocked my phone and scrolled through my social media feed.
Unexpectedly, Ye Mengyan had excitedly posted about her new gift on her social media.
An open box with a ruby necklace shimmering luxury under the light, with a line of text to match.
“No concern for the length of our days and nights, all I want is for the sun and moon to stand side by side…”
Elegant words, full of poetry. If this wasn’t a story of a home-wrecker, it would be quite touching.
1 silently turned off my phone, staring out at the scenery outside the window.
Giving a present to Ye Mengyan meant that she still held a very important place in his heart.
Over the past four years, how many gifts had he given to Ye Mengyan?
I didn’t want to think about these things anymore. They were too distressing.
Unconsciously, I opened up the surveillance video on my phone.
Since arranging for Ye’s mother to work at number 168 West Mountain Villa belonging to Ding Yinuo, I would sporadically check the surveillance video.
Checking to see if any suspicious person who might be the mystery cousin had contacted Ye!s mother.
After a few checks, 1 didn’t find anything suspicious.
As for Ye’s mother, she was diligent and efficient, the courtyard was always clean. She fertilized the plants and weeded the garden.
Sometimes, she would also dry quilts and other things in the sun…
As I was carefully watching, a large face suddenly rushed into the camera, shook the lens, and then the screen went black!
Obviously, someone had removed or turned off the camera.
I immediately sent a text to Ding Yinuo.
“Why did you remove my camera?”
The reply was quite assertive as they immediately went on the offensive.
“Did I allow you to install cameras in my house?”
“You’re not even there!”
“What does that have to do with it? It’s still my house even if I’m not there! Without my permission, you’re invading my privacy. What are you trying to accomplish?”
As these disagreements can’t be resolved through messages, I decided to meet face to face with him to talk it out.
The car suddenly stopped in front of a mall. “Go and buy some clothes. We have to attend a dinner party later.”
Gu Yuanzhou handed me a bank card…
I hesitated for a moment.
“President Gu, if you need a companion, I think Miss Ye would be more suitable! She’s so gentle and beautiful!”
Gu Yuanzhou picked up a pendant from inside the car, it was a Jade Guanyin.
He showed it to me.
“She’s just like this piece of jade!”
“Oh, 1 get it! You meant that Miss Ye is as precious and rare as jade, needing careful protection, right?”
Gu Yuanzhou looked deeply into my eyes.
“You have a mission at the dinner party! Ye Mengyan is still a student, she isn’t suitable for such places!”
“But eventually, Miss Ye will have to join the working world! Learning some things earlier will better equip her for society.”
Gu Yuanzhou rubbed his temples and then said calmly,
“She’s so innocent, I don’t want her to be tainted by society! She won’t need to join the workforce in the future!”
This statement shocked me even more,
In the past, I thought he didn’t let Ye Mengyan join Zhenyi Company to avoid rumors.
Now it seems, he was protecting her, even intending to provide for her for a lifetime.
Like nurturing a piece of fine jade, he wanted to guard her carefully.
Indeed, she was his true love.
Sometimes, the closer I got to the truth, the more uneasy I felt. When I got out of the car, I gave him back his bank card.
“President Gu, I’ll buy my own clothes!”
Gu Yuanzhou didn’t say much, his eyes showing a bit of confusion as he glanced at me. He then gave me an address.
“Be there before nine tonight!”
After I got out of the car, 1 didn’t go to buy clothes. I hailed a taxi and headed for the West Mountain Villa, number 168.
It wasn’t too late, and I had to take care of the more important tasks first.
Half an hour later, the car stopped at the front door of Villa 168 on West
Mountain.
I rang the doorbell.
The door opened, and Ding Yinuo appeared, a smirk on his face as he looked at me.
“You’ve visibly put on weight after a week of going on business trips with the big boss, haven’t you? Don’t tell me…have you fallen for your boss?”
“Mr. Ding, let’s talk inside!”
Once inside, I didn’t see Ye’s mother.
However, the three cameras that I’d installed were neatly arranged on the desk, having been disconnected by Ding Yinuo. “Where’s Ye’s mother… the housekeeper?”
“l fired her!”
Ding Yinuo said it flippantly.
Fuming, I responded, “How could you do that?”
“We don’t owe each other anything, why can’t I do that?”
“Ding Yinuo, what’s your problem?”
“I’ll ask you again, did you give your boss the medicine?”
At Ding Yinuo’s question, I fell silent for a moment before erupting, which, in truth, was a question that had been bugging me for years.
“Ding Yinuo, did he desecrate your ancestors’ tombs or something? Why are you so intent on having him killed?”
Truth be told, if a company wants to establish itself in A City and make some accomplishments, it would inevitably offend many people and draw jealousy from competitors.
The business world is a battlefield without the smoke of gunpowder. Everyone can pull out all the stops, but very few people would actually try to assassinate their competitors.
After all, this is a society that follows the rule of law, where murder is punishable by death. Any rational person wouldn’t commit such an act.
Ding Yinuo’s eyes were filled with menace; his deep voice carried a hint of murderous intent.
“He killed the woman 1 loved most.. Do you think he deserves to die?”
