Although Chen Yuan didn't show it in front of Qi Xiu, she was already extremely anxious.
As the time agreed upon with Qin Hongxiao drew closer, she hadn't heard any news at all.
I'm afraid that by then she will have to hand over the one million betrothal gift to Qin Hongxiao.
"Chen Yuan, the water is spilled."
Only after hearing Gu Jisui's voice did Shen Yuan respond. The water in the cup had overflowed onto the table.
She picked up the tissue and apologized repeatedly, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I didn't pay attention."
Gu Jisui frowned and stared at her. For some reason, he always felt that Chen Yuan was absent-minded these past two days.
I called her several times before she reacted.
"Are you worried about something?" Gu Jisui hit the nail on the head. Chen Yuan was stunned for a moment, but there was nothing to hide. If she told him, maybe he could help her.
"I went to see Qi Xiu two days ago, but he still refused to say anything. There are only five days left until the agreed time, and I still haven't found anything."
Gu Jisui paused, it turned out to be about this matter.
"Let me try. Don't worry, I will definitely help you find out about your parents."
Hearing this, Shen Yuan's eyes suddenly lit up.
"Okay, thank you."
The two of them sat at the dining table, unaware that Xu Wenlou was watching their every move.
She overheard their conversation and learned that Chen Yuan had been looking for her biological parents.
After returning to the company, Gu Jisui asked Special Assistant Song to go to the hospital. After a while, he brought back the news.
"Mr. Gu, Qi Xiu still refuses to give in, but I've found out he has a lot of enemies. He's been hiding all these years and moved here from S City to avoid them."
I didn't expect Qi Xiu's mouth to be so hard to pry open.
He stood up and said, "Give me the car keys, I'll go by myself."
After Special Assistant Song handed him the key, he went to the hospital where Qi Xiu was.
In a moment, he appeared in Qi Xiu's ward.
Seeing him, Qi Xiu frowned and seemed a little impatient.
One just left, and now another one is here? It seems he can't stay in this hospital for long with these lingering ghosts.
"You don't have to waste your words on me. I don't know anything and I won't tell you."
Gu Jisui was coldly rejected by Qi Xiu before he could say anything. He frowned, but soon returned to normal.
He casually pulled a chair and sat next to the bed, crossed his legs, and looked him up and down.
Qi Xiu felt uncomfortable being stared at. Did this person have some quirk? Why was he staring at him like that?
"Qi Xiu, Mr. Qi, right?"
Qi Xiu looked at Gu Jisui. It seemed that his guess was correct. This man also came to inquire about something.
"I am. If you come to ask me something, I advise you not to waste your breath."
He spoke in a decisive tone, trying to interrupt the visitor's thoughts, but he only saw Gu Jisui slightly raise his eyebrows, looking indifferent.
"Mr. Qi, don't worry, I'm here to make a deal with you."
Qi Xiu paused after hearing this. Make a deal with him?
He looked Gu Jisui up and down. The suit on this man looked very valuable. How could a man who cost hundreds of thousands of dollars for a suit do business with a penniless man like him?
"What deal do you want to make?"
Gu Jisui said lazily, "I know you have many enemies. It must be hard to hide from them all these years, right?"
Qi Xiu was stunned for a moment, then immediately became alert. How could he know all this?!
"What do you want to do?"
Gu Jisui chuckled, "Didn't I tell you I want to make a deal with you?"
Qi Xiu didn't say anything and just looked at Gu Jisui quietly.
He continued, "I have the ability to protect you. As long as you are willing to tell me what you know, I can guarantee your safety."
Qi Xiu frowned and said something about making a deal. What's the difference between this and the previous one? It's just adding a condition.
What did he know? The offer did sound tempting, but he didn't need it.
Those things can only rot in his stomach. The worst that can happen is death. He has never been afraid of death.
Qi Xiu had a sarcastic smile on his face. "Don't waste your energy. If I were afraid of death, I wouldn't need you to trick me."
In a coffee shop, Xu Wenlou and Shen Jiajia sat face to face.
Shen Jiajia looked at Xu Wenlou with an impatient look.
"Tell me, what do you want me to do?"
In the morning, Shen Jiajia received a strange phone call. The person on the other end said that he had something important to tell her.
Originally she didn't want to pay attention to him, but after hearing that the other party said he was related to Shen Yuan, she became interested.
She didn't expect that the person who asked her to meet was actually from the Gu family.
This was the first time that Xu Wenlou, who had always been arrogant, was questioned in this tone.
If it were someone else, she would have confronted him long ago, but Shen Jiajia was still useful, so she gritted her teeth and endured it.
“Miss Shen, if I’m not mistaken, you definitely don’t like your sister, right?”
Shen Jiajia paused, "What do you want to say?"
Xu Wenlou curled his lips and said, "Coincidentally, I hate her too. Why don't we practice fighting and defeat her?"
It does sound tempting, but what benefits can she offer him? And she still wants to join forces with Shen Jiajia?!
"How can you help me?"
Xu Wenlou pursed his lips and said, "As long as you want, anything is fine. This morning I overheard that Shen Yuan found a man named Qi Xiu, and that man seemed to know news about her biological parents."
When Shen Jiajia heard this, she was stunned. She actually let that bitch find some clues.
