Translator: 549690339
Gu Yuanzhou walked towards the lounge with his phone, seeming uninterested in letting me hear his conversation.
My phone rang too. Picking it up, I found it was a text message from a reporter.
âSister Song, Iâve found out who was in Room 66 at the Romantic Hotel.â
âWhatâs the situation!â
âItâs a bit complicated. Room 66 is rented out long-term by Gu Yuanzhou. He comes here at a fixed time every month.â
âDo you know the womanâs name?â
âNot at the moment, but Iâve found out some other information. Letâs meet to talk about it!â
âAlright!
After I hung up, Gu Yuanzhou also came out.
He handed me a list.
âYou go purchase these.â
I took the paper and looked at it. All of it was home appliances, water heaters, refrigerators, air conditioners, and the like.
âPresident Gu, are there any other requirements?â
âBuy according to your judgment.â
âAlright, got it.â
I had just reached the door when he called me back.
âForget about it, deal with these in the afternoon. Come with me somewhere in a bit.â
Looking at these appliances, the categories were complete. It seemed like a new house was about to be furnishedâŠ
Normally Gu Yuanzhou would have a chauffeur, but today he drove himself.
Perhaps out of habit, I instinctively opened the passenger seat. Just as I was about to sit downâŠ
Gu Yuanzhou stopped me,
âSit in the back!â
Three words, firm and cold!
I then snapped back to reality.
âOh, Iâm sorry, Iâm used to it! I apologize, 1 apologize!â
I quickly closed the car door and moved to the back seat.
Gu Yuanzhou remained silent and started the car.
This was the first time since being reborn that I was alone with Gu Yuanzhou in an enclosed space.
The atmosphere was very oppressive.
Gu Yuanzhou didnât say a word, his face was stern.
In fact, in the eyes of other employees, Gu Yuanzhou was a cold and distant person.
He was undoubtedly hard to approach.
As for why he didnât let me sit in the front, 1 never figured out why.
One hour later.
In a remote suburb, the car slowly stopped at the foot of a hill.
At the entrance of a complex, a man in a suit and tie stood. When he saw Gu Yuanzhou, he quickly bowed and smiled.
âPresident Gu, hello!â
âIs the house ready?â
âDefinitely meets your requirements, a prime feng Shui location chosen by a
Hong Kong masterâŠâ
At this moment, I realized that this man was a real estate agent, here to show Gu Yuanzhou a house.
Putting together the details of him asking me to buy appliances, I realized he was buying a new home.
His wife and child had just died, and he was already eager to build a new home?
To verify my thoughts, I opened the list he gave me again. I noticed it contained some womenâs appliances, like a Dyson hair dryer.
Indeed, he was buying a house for a woman.
The location for the house was indeed excellent.
Surrounded by green hills and fresh air, with a vast sea of flowers in the distance.
Apart from being too far from the city and not convenient for commuting, there were no other faults.
Of course, a woman kept by Gu Yuanzhou, a man worth tens of billions, naturally wouldnât have to work.
Her main concern would likely be exposure by the media, so a scenic and secluded location is better.
As the agent was showing Gu Yuanzhou around, I also took the opportunity to survey the surrounding environment.
A standalone villa, with no neighbors.
Upon careful observation of the direction, I found that the house was actually in a shaded position, due to a hill blocking it, sunlight could not reach the doorway.
Living here without sunlight would certainly be a little uncomfortable.
So I found the real estate agent and expressed my doubts.
The agent chuckled and patted me on the shoulder,
âLittle girl, you donât understand! This is exactly what your boss wants.â At this time, Gu Yuanzhou was standing in front of the living room window, gazing at the backyard. I stood not far behind him with the agent.
I presume he also heard our conversation, but he didnât voice any objections. It seems⊠that is indeed what he requested.
The house was newly built. The hard construction part was done; now, it only needs appliances and furniture to be habitable.
During the house inspection, Gu Yuanzhou remained silent, not uttering a single word.
Even the real estate agent was surprisingly tactful, remaining silent most of the time, except for the occasional comments about the fengshui.
Visiting the house in such a suppressed atmosphere left a deep impression.
âWhat do you think, President Gu?â
Gu Yuanzhou took a quiet drag from his cigarette, taking his time before he finally answered,
âShe should like it!â
âIf President Gu is satisfied, please sign this contractâŠâ
The realtor promptly handed over the contract without protest. Gu Yuanzhou took the pen and casually signed his name.
âFor post-acquisition matters, coordinate with him. Alright, you may leave now.â
Despite purchasing the new house, Gu Yuanzhou didnât seem to be in high spirits.
He brought me here to handle the subsequent issues related to the new property.
I took the realtorâs car to leave, while he stayed behind.
Far into the drive, I took a look back.
Gu Yuanzhou had his phone out, talking to someone over a call on that black phone, whose number I did not know.
Must be his mistress!
Was he calling to tell her to come and visit the house?
As I got off, the agent clucked his tongue,
âl never thought President Gu would be such a devoted man.â
I casually retorted,
âHow do you determine heâs devoted when you donât even know who heâs buying it for?â
âl think I know. Itâs for his wife!â
The realtorâs words took me by surpriseâŠ
1 didnât expect Gu Yuanzhou to so quickly announce to the world that sheâs his wife.
I chuckled in derision before pushing the car door open and getting off.
At half-past five in the afternoon, 1 met Shen Yishu at a small coffee shop.
He is a journalist at Polar Media. He was the one who wrote the news about Gu Yuanzhou killing his wife for insurance money.
He is a very brave and creative young man. I sent him to the hospital and paid for his medical bills after he was previously beaten by the security guards. Since then, we became friends. His special status as a journalist facilitated access to information out of the everyday personâs reach.
He was wearing a plaid shirt and faded jeans. Quite likely, he had taken a shower before meeting me. His hair was still wet, and a soapy fragrance emanated from him.
Thatâs the advantage of youth. Even with a simple get-up, he seemed fresh and energetic.
Compared to him, I seemed much more world-weary.
Even inside Song Xiaoyunâs youthful body, my eyes hid a thirty-year-old womanâs sorrow. âHello Sister Song!â
He waved at me.
âHello, two coconut lattes please!â
I was about to pay, but he quickly stepped up.
âIâll get this!â
I glanced at the price â nine ninety-nine special offer⊠Fine, let him pay, young men often have a strong ego. He brought the coffees over to me.
âThank you!â
âSister Song, I should transfer that medical bill to you!!
âNo need, it wasnât a big deal.â
âItâs fine, 1 got paid!â
Though it was only a hundred bucks, Shen Yishu was adamant. So I did not refuse.
âSo, they decided to keep you?â
âAh, no⊠Itâs another boss who pays me! But, thatâs okay! As long as I have the money, I can go after my dreams.â
Shen Yishu seemed excited. He had been covering a lot of headline news recently. fređwđbnđŒvđČđ„.đđŒđ
Sitting next to me, he pointed out the news he had been chasing.
Although Iâm not a journalist, I can see that this young man has talent and potential.
He grasps the situation very well and isnât afraid to take on challenges.
âYou are very talented!
My praise made Shen Yishu blush.
Likewise, we touched upon the topic of the Romantic HotelâŠ
âTo be honest, I didnât stop investigating Gu Yuanzhou recently. I have found a lead that 1 mentioned over the phone. Gu Yuanzhou often checks into the
Romantic Hotel..
