Chapter 39

Li Jiashu stared at Yun Zhou's words with resentment. What does it mean to go see your mother? Are you going to sleep tonight?

So he said: [We graduated from the same elementary school, but I didn't expect that there would be such a big gap between us after graduating from college. I only sent you this one page of content, and you still want to ask your mother to read it? ] Tsk tsk, he finally pretended to be awesome this time, and his sister-in-law is really awesome.

However, Yun Zhou said: "Well, it can be seen that this thing is not written by you. There are countless steps and deduction processes in this page of paper. It is not just a matter of one page. I guess you don’t even understand the basic logic. Tell me, which research institute’s big shot did you ask for help?"

Huh? Huh? ? ? This time Li Jiashu was really stunned. He asked his sister-in-law to make up a few random sentences to fool people, and this was the effect? ​​If he still believed that this was made up by his sister-in-law, he might as well believe that his sister-in-law was Qin Shi Huang.

Yun Zhou seemed to see that Li Jiashu did not reply, and said again: [Brother Jiashu, I'm sorry, I was just joking this afternoon. Now that I have exposed you, you don't have to feel ashamed. Think about it, even the team led by my mother has not yet produced any results for this project. It is normal that you don't understand.]

[So, you should actually be proud of knowing such a big shot in the academic circle. He must have spent a lot of effort to help you prove that this direction is wrong. I guess he has been working overtime all night. We don’t have such connections in our family.]

Li Jiashu was even more confused: "......?" He was talking about his sister-in-law? She was working overtime all night? Wasn't she video chatting with his brother all night to have a long-distance relationship?

Yun Zhou said so much, and finally revealed his true intention: [Brother Jia Shu, handsome, kind and helpful, can you tell me which research institute and which boss you are consulting? Can I go visit him? I still have some questions about this research direction that I want to ask this teacher...]

Li Jiashu doubted his life for a while, and replied: [Xiaoyun, I can't tell you this for now. I have to ask that teacher for his opinion.] His sister-in-law studied finance in college. Since this is an academic problem, it shouldn't be his sister-in-law who came up with it. If he rashly claimed it for his sister-in-law, wouldn't it be embarrassing for his sister-in-law? It's better to ask his sister-in-law what's going on first.

Yun Zhou immediately replied: [Damn it! Do you still want me to sleep tonight? ! ! ]

Li Jiashu smiled happily and said, "Tsk tsk, those who make others unable to sleep will eventually be unable to sleep either."

Yun Zhou: [Forget it, let’s wait until my mom has verified it.]

After finishing the chat with Yun Zhou, Li Jiashu felt like a complete victory. He opened the chat box with Gu Chen again, and then he saw the chat record in which his sister-in-law told him not to send messages anymore.

Li Jiashu’s smile suddenly disappeared: “…” Ahhh, if he doesn’t know the truth, he won’t be able to sleep tonight!

Li Jiashu did toss and turn that night, waiting to ask Gu Chen at dawn. He heard that his sister-in-law got up at six in the morning, so he probably wouldn't have to wait long.

At six o'clock the next morning, Gu Chen opened his eyes on time because of his well-developed biological clock. After eight hours of sleep, he was in good spirits and in a good mood.

As soon as he stood up and opened the curtains, he received a video call from Li Tingqin: "Good morning, Ah Chen."

Gu Chen held his phone, closed his eyes and faced the French window. He basked in the sun for a while, opened his eyes, and saw a fresh green outside the window. He said in a relaxed tone, "Mr. Li, good afternoon."

Li Tingqin didn't expect that as soon as the video was connected, there would be such a beautiful picture. The young man closed his eyes, his brows were relaxed, and the morning sunlight was shining on his face.

Li Tingqin asked, "Are you going into the mountains to exercise later?" If he were in China, the two of them would probably go up the mountain together.

Gu Chen said: "Well, wash up first, then change clothes."

He didn't know what he was thinking about, but he raised the corner of his mouth and joked, "Boss Li, do you need me to put my phone next to you and chat while I work?"

Just as he finished saying this, Li Jiashu's message came again: [Sister-in-law!!! Tell me quickly! What happened last night! How did you do it! ]

[Sister-in-law! I can’t sleep or eat because I don’t know the answer.]

[Sister-in-law, did you ask any senior for advice, or did you actually study for a double degree? ]

Gu Chen: “…” The atmosphere just now seemed to have disappeared completely.

Li Tingqin asked again: "What's wrong, Ah Chen?"

Gu Chen asked puzzledly: "Why did Jiashu get up so early today?" It was not like this when he lived in the old house.

Li Tingqin: "Hmm? He sent you a message at 6 o'clock again?"

Gu Chen said, "Oh, forget it. I'll explain it to him first. I have to go exercise later and it's too late. We'll talk tonight."

Li Tingqin: "...Okay, go ahead."

Li Jiashu had been holding back his curiosity all night, but before he received a reply from Gu Chen, he received a call from Li Tingqin: "Jiashu, why did you get up so early today?"

Ah? Did his brother install a surveillance camera here? Li Jiashu said faintly: "Brother, is there a possibility that I haven't fallen asleep yet..."

Li Tingqin frowned and said, "Don't send messages to your sister-in-law before 9 o'clock in the future." Waiting from 10 o'clock last night to 6 o'clock in the morning just to send a message to Achen?

Li Jiashu was even more confused: "Brother, why did you know just after I sent a message to my sister-in-law? And what on earth were you and my sister-in-law doing in the morning? Why did you do it from 6am to 9am?"

Li Tingqin did not answer his stupid question.

Li Jiashu said again: "This is not allowed and that is not allowed. Then when can I send a message to my sister-in-law?"

Li Tingqin said, "You'd better not." Then he hung up the phone.

Li Jiashu: “Huh???”

It’s amazing that your sister-in-law is your wife!!!

After hanging up the phone, Li Jiashu saw the message Gu Chen replied: [I just made it up. ]

Li Jiashu replied immediately: [Do you think I would believe it?! I have asked professionals to look at it, sister-in-law, just admit it.]

Gu Chen said: [Didn't you, Jiashu, ask me to make up a few sentences? The formulas on this piece of paper are from related topics that I found on the Internet. You shouldn't have told others that I made them up, right?]

Li Jiashu: [Of course I didn’t, but sister-in-law, you don’t have to pretend…]

Gu Chen replied: [Okay, that's good. Sister-in-law believes that you, Jiashu, will not go out and tell others about it. I will go to exercise first.]

Li Jiashu: [???]

[Sister-in-law? QAQ]

【sister in law! ! ! 】

Li Jiashu took a deep breath. At this time, Yunzhou sent a "good news": [Brother Jiashu! My mother and the team have been verifying it for a whole night! This direction is really wrong! Oh my God! This teacher is amazing! He used a page of refined formulas to express such a powerful logical chain. Even my mother was amazed...]

[Brother Jiashu, have you asked that teacher for his opinion? I want to study for a doctorate under him, is that ok?]

Li Jiashu thought, you still want to study for a doctorate under your sister-in-law? You're dreaming. Now I even send a message to my sister-in-law and she says "better not".

But what should he say now? Last time, his sister-in-law made up a story to the fourth cousin, but he could still make up a story about the business circle to fool the outside world...

Hmm? Fourth cousin? Mr. Gu?

Li Jiashu suddenly had an idea and quickly typed: [Xiaoyun, I wonder if you have heard of Mr. Gu? ]

Yun Zhou racked his brains to think about the people and things related to the Li family. It seemed that the divorce case of the fourth aunt of the third branch of the Li family was quite a big deal. Was there a good friend of Mr. Li, Mr. Gu, who was the manipulator behind it?

Yun Zhou said: [You mean... Mr. Gu who gave Aunt Mo Rong some advice? ]

Li Jiashu began to make up: [That's right, the Gu family of Mr. Gu is very mysterious and doesn't come out easily. He has a younger generation, Mr. Gu, that is, Professor Gu, who is very good at this. Yesterday you came to me, and I had no choice but to ask Professor Gu for some advice. But the people in his family don't care about fame and fortune in the outside world, and don't like outside discussions. Professor Gu should not want to reveal his identity, so Xiaoyun, don't ask me anymore, I'm also embarrassed. ]

Yun Zhou said: [Ah... Professor Gu, do you really think so? But he helped us solve such a big problem, I think he should be rewarded at least 5 million. Can you help us contact him to pass it on? ]

Li Jiashu said: [Then I'll ask him if he needs it. But you guys are in this situation now... I heard you owe the bank 200 million? Let's talk about the compensation after you've achieved results.]

Yun Zhou said again: [Can I ask Professor Gu to help us look at two other directions? One direction is still 5 million, and we ask Mr. Gu to invest in technology, how about 10% of the shares? ]

Li Jiashu said: [I want to ask first.]

He forwarded the screenshot of the chat with Yun Zhou to Gu Chen and said, "Sister-in-law, sister-in-law! Look, you made 5 million just by writing a piece of paper! Are you interested in writing two more pieces of paper to make 10 million?"

He forwarded the other two PDF files to Gu Chen and felt regretful. Why didn't he forward the three files together yesterday?

Gu Chen came back from the gym and took a look at his phone, and saw a lot of messages from Li Jiashu. He felt that this matter could not go on like this forever. He clicked on two files and took a look, and replied: [Not interested.] He had never worked in these two directions, so he really couldn't just write two pieces of paper. He could do it if he really wanted to study it, but his brain had stopped working.

Gu Chen said: [Why not adopt your second plan from yesterday? I will lend you 5 million first, and you can go and send your classmates away.]

Li Jiashu said: [Now I can’t even get rid of 5 million. Their family spends 5 million a month. I suspect that if I don’t tell him, he will keep pestering me... Sister-in-law, now only you can save me from the entanglement of the terrible Nan Tong.]

[Your brother and I are both gay :)] Gu Chen thought for a moment and said, [It just so happens that your brother gives me 5 million a month for me to spend, so I will invest in this project.]

Although he has not done anything in these two directions, a quick look at the documents shows that there is a high possibility of success in both directions. This project is still promising. If he makes money in the future, Mr. Li will no longer have to give him pocket money. With 5 million yuan a month, it is really difficult for him to spend it living in the mountains.

Li Jiashu: [!!!] Is this human language? What do you mean you have to spend 5 million every month?

But a genius like my sister-in-law actually looks favorably on this project after reading the documents? My sister-in-law can easily reject a direction with a piece of paper.

So he asked: [Sister-in-law, do you really think this project is feasible? This is 5 million a month, and there are many people outside who are pessimistic about it. ]

Gu Chen said: [It’s okay, there’s no need to be so pessimistic, maybe both directions are feasible. ]

Li Jiashu got a positive answer and said, "Okay!!! I'll tell them right now!" Really, don't bother him anymore!

Gu Chen said: [However, the specific issues such as the contract and equity negotiation will be left to you to handle. Please don't bother me again tonight.]

Li Jiashu: “QAQ…”

Why is it that others are middlemen making a profit from the price difference, but for him, it becomes the middleman who makes the profit from the job?

But he still replied: [Sister-in-law, don't worry, after dealing with this matter, I will never send you messages again, my brother will break my legs. ]

Switching back to the chat box with Yun Zhou, Yun Zhou repeatedly asked: [How is it? What did Professor Gu say? ]

Li Jiashu said: [Professor Gu is not short of money, and he is very optimistic about your project. He is ready to invest 5 million a month. Now ask your parents to talk to me about the equity issue? ]

Yun Zhou: [!!! Professor Gu is really optimistic?]

In order to be more convincing, Li Jiashu coded the address and sent a screenshot of the chat to Yun Zhou.

When Yun Zhou saw the chat screenshot, he immediately ran to the laboratory with his phone.

His mother's team hadn't rested yet. One of them was holding a printed piece of paper that Gu Chen had written yesterday, still immersed in research. However, some people were more practical and said, "Boss Yun, we said yesterday that we would stop this project. Although you found a great academic to give you advice last night and gathered everyone to verify this wrong direction, it's still a long way to go to continue working on these two projects. Everyone is already very tired. I advise you to be more practical..."

"Mom!" Yun Zhou didn't go in because he didn't change his clothes. Instead, he patted the glass window of the laboratory and shouted, "Professor Gu is very optimistic about this project! He even invested 5 million a month!"

This time, everyone in the whole building almost heard his shout. Yunxiu opened the door of the laboratory and asked, "Zhou Zhou, what did you say?"

Yun Zhou quickly showed his phone to Yun Xiu and said, "Look, Mom, Professor Gu said both directions are feasible, and he has invested money, 5 million a month, all problems will be solved."

Yunxiu used Yunzhou's phone to transfer the picture to himself, and then sent it to the group, saying, "Everyone, take a look. I believe that everyone can feel Professor Gu's level after reading his manuscript yesterday. Now he thinks this project is feasible and he has invested in it."

Everyone was very tired after coming to this point, and finally breathed a sigh of relief. Unexpectedly, everything turned out so well. They exclaimed: "Ah, finally... Let's give it another try... With this, I feel I can last another month!"

"What could be more convincing than investing your own money? I believe it..."

Yunxiu heaved a sigh of relief. Everyone's confidence had actually been shaken a long time ago, and they were about to break up yesterday. Fortunately, Professor Gu came to their rescue...

She said, "Okay, everyone has been up all night, go back and rest, we will reconvene tomorrow to sort out our thoughts."

After seeing off the team members, she turned to Yun Zhou and asked, "Zhou Zhou, do you know where Professor Gu is working? I must go visit him in person."

Yun Zhou: "..." Bring out Li Jiashu's words again? I always feel that his stories are outrageous?

"Uh, Mom, actually..."

…

When the legendary "Professor Gu" was taking a bath tonight, finally no one came to disturb him. He looked at the bath balls and bath salts mentioned by Li Tingqin on the shelf and selected them carefully.

There are many brands. Gu Chen selected the flavors and found that one of them was very familiar, as if it had appeared on Li Tingqin.

Okay, this one. He threw the bath ball into the bathtub, and the whole bathroom was filled with that familiar fragrance.

After taking a bath, Gu Chen lay down on the bed and called Li Tingqin on video again.

Today, Li Tingqin was in the office and said, "Achen, good evening."

Gu Chen leaned against the head of the bed and chatted casually: "Well, the matter with Jiashu should be resolved."

"That's good." Li Tingqin changed the subject and said, "Yesterday I used the brand you recommended, and it felt pretty good."

"Really?" Gu Chen raised his lips slightly and said, "I also used it to take a bath tonight. This one is xxx. Is it the brand you usually use?"

Li Tingqin asked casually with a smile: "Achen, how did you know?"

Gu Chen said: "When I picked it, I thought the taste was familiar so I used it."

"Now that we're done, we both smell the same."
