Chapter 105: The Academic Prodigy's Dark Moonlight (16)

Wei Cheng looked at Gu Sheng and said, "How do you know that my dream is to make the software launched by Mengxin Technology go global? Don't you think I'm just daydreaming? When my dad heard about this dream, he gave me a hard slap on the wrist, thinking that I wouldn't even be able to leave Lancheng."

Then, grabbing Gu Sheng's arm, he said, "You're the first person to believe me. Don't worry, no matter the price, I'll take all three of them."

Gu Sheng: "..."

When did he start to believe Wei Cheng?

He only believed in his own abilities and his capable subordinates. As for Wei Cheng, he could just be a generous spender.

She pulled Wei Cheng's hand away. "Also, don't reveal my identity to anyone for now. Also, I'm still a senior in high school and need to attend classes, so I can't work at the company."

"I understand, I understand. You need to do well on the college entrance exam. With your brain, you must be a genius." Wei Cheng thought Gu Sheng was a genius, after all, it seemed like he was self-taught.

"Don't tell anyone about our cooperation, including your family or friends."

"OK."

"There is one last request."

"You said you could do it, and I definitely will."

"I need you to investigate someone for me and keep track of his family's situation." She handed a file to Wei Cheng, who glanced at it. "Lu Xiao? I recognize him. He seems to be the owner of a building materials company. He's done business with my dad before. What's your relationship with him? Why do you need to investigate him?"

"You don't need to worry about that for now. He has a son who probably has a history of bullying and sexually harassing classmates. Send someone to keep a close eye on him. I need evidence."

Wei Cheng looked at Lu Xiao's son, Lu Chengran. He was of average appearance, but looked shifty-eyed. However, looking at Gu Sheng's dark expression, it seemed that Gu Sheng hated this family.

"Okay, I'll find someone to keep an eye on things and investigate."

Having explained everything, Gu Sheng started to send the person away, since it was almost time for school to end and the person should be at the hospital soon. "Keep in touch, you can go home now."

Wei Cheng: "???" Use and discard? We'll be colleagues from now on, can't we at least have some colleague affection?

"Alright, I'll be going now. Take good care of yourself and I wish you a speedy recovery." Wei Cheng said and left.

Gu Sheng looked at the closed door. How should I put it? Wei Cheng, who was exactly the same as in her previous life, and many other events that were unchanged, all confirmed Gu Sheng's belief that she had been reborn.

...

Unexpectedly, Wei Cheng did not leave the hospital immediately, but wandered around the hospital, and then happened to bump into Wen Wan, who came to the hospital to visit Gu Sheng.

Wen Wan was talking to the system at the time and almost spilled the soup she was carrying for Gu Sheng because she wasn't paying attention.

"I'm so sorry, are you alright?" Wei Cheng quickly apologized, but Wen Wan waved her hand and said, "It was my fault for not watching where I was going, it's not your fault."

Looking at the beautiful girl in front of him, Wei Cheng thought to himself: Could this be a romantic encounter sent to me by God?

So he smiled to what he considered his most charming and handsome angle, and said, "How can this not be my fault? My name is Wei Cheng, and this is my business card. Can I treat you to dinner to make up for my carelessness?"

Wen Yan: "..."

Where did this greasy guy come from? He looks decent enough, but why is he hitting on people in such a sleazy way?

Is that face twitching?

"No need, I have something to do, I'll be going now."

As he was about to walk past her, Wei Cheng quickly said, "You're wearing the uniform of Lancheng No. 1 Middle School, right? A friend of mine also goes to Lancheng No. 1 Middle School. What a coincidence!"

Wen Wan looked at Wei Cheng and said, "Uncle, I really have something to do. Goodbye." Then she ran off.

"Uncle???" Wei Cheng was shocked. This person actually called him uncle? He was only twenty-three years old, how could he be an uncle?

He quickly pulled out his phone, turned on the camera to check his handsome appearance, and exclaimed, "This is an incredibly handsome guy! What do you mean 'uncle'? Girls these days have terrible taste!"

Wen Wan went to Gu Sheng's ward and ladled out the soup that Aunt Liu had stewed. "I almost spilled this soup. I just met a lunatic who tried to chat me up. It was so greasy."

Gu Sheng frowned. "Stay away from strange people in the future."

Wen Wan: "Of course."

How are you feeling today?

"I feel like I'm ready to be discharged; I'm almost fully recovered."

"Let the doctor examine you; the doctor's opinion matters." Wen Wan then took out a stack of notes from her schoolbag. "Although I know you probably don't need them, I wrote them all down since you skipped class. Do you want to see them?"

"Okay, thank you." Gu Sheng took the notes. Actually, Gu Sheng already knew all this knowledge and didn't need to look at them at all. But the seventeen or eighteen-year-old Gu Sheng wouldn't refuse.

Three days later, the doctor gave Gu Sheng a comprehensive examination and finally confirmed that Gu Sheng could be discharged from the hospital, but he needed to come back for a follow-up examination regularly. When he was discharged, Gu Sheng’s grandmother, Xiao Shuyun and Wen Wan came to pick him up and take him home. Standing at the door again, Gu Sheng felt both familiar and strange.

"Why aren't you coming inside? What are you looking at at the door, little one?" Grandma Gu asked, looking at her grandson who was standing there dumbfounded.

Gu Sheng pulled herself out of her tangled thoughts and stepped into the house. "It's nothing, I just feel like I've stayed in the hospital for too long this time."

Back home, Gu Sheng thought about changing the environment for his grandmother and sister. He had recently sold some of his writings and had about 100,000 yuan, enough to rent a place with a better environment and security.

But how should I put it?

After all, he's just a student, where would he get so much money?

"Grandma, there's something I really want to say. It's not safe here anymore. After Uncle went to prison, those who can't collect their debts will keep harassing you. So you should move out of here, otherwise, there's no guarantee that the danger won't happen again."

Grandma Gu: "I know, but where can we go? Moving also costs money. Azai and Shuyun still need to go to school, and all the money in this house needs to be saved for their education."

Wen Wan even wanted to shout: Why don't you all stay at my house?

But she knew that Grandma Gu would not agree.

“I asked my dad to find a reasonably priced house with good security. As for the rent, we can pay it off later when Gu Sheng makes money.”

Anyway, Gu Sheng will definitely make a lot of money in the future.

"This..." Grandma Gu still couldn't make a decision, but Gu Sheng on the side agreed.

"I think it's okay."

"But--"

"Grandma, you have to believe me. Otherwise, if we continue to live here, I'll be constantly worried that those people will hurt you and Shuyun. I'll work even harder to earn money in the future," Gu Sheng said immediately.

"Grandma, just listen to Gu Sheng. Look how many times this has happened? Gu Sheng has been to the hospital twice already. It's like they're trying to kill him. Grandma, aren't you afraid something will happen to Gu Sheng?"

"Okay." Grandma Gu immediately agreed as soon as her grandson was mentioned.

Money is a problem, but at worst she can use the money she saved for her grandson's wedding and temporarily use her granddaughter's dowry to make up for it.

In any case, we can't let our grandchildren be put in danger again.
