148: The unsolved case is solved, it really is her!
The relationship between the Chen Yan family and the old house is difficult to describe.
Shen Boxiong never gave face to Shen Yan's family and did not even show up at Shen Yan's engagement party.
Shen Zhongjun's attitude was rather ambiguous. Sometimes he was willing to give Shen Yan's family some face, such as attending Shen Yan's engagement party. Sometimes he refused to give them any face at all, like today.
Wen Yiyi still doesn't know enough about the Shen family's affairs. Wen Zhicheng treats her like a child and doesn't tell her about these things. The three members of the Shen Yan family want to save face and won't reveal their own scars, so she is angry about Shen Zhongjun's attitude.
Wen Yiyi felt wronged, and Chen Yan questioned her with a gloomy face: "You wanted to take the lead in organizing this class reunion, and asked me to help you find a high-end venue. Did I help you get things done? I don't ask for your gratitude for doing these things. I am your fiancé and I can't let you lose face. But shouldn't you discuss the discount for all consumption today with me in advance!"
Wen Yiyi was annoyed. "I can't even make the decision on such a small matter? If you don't have the authority, just tell me. I'll make up for the discounted fee later!"
Chen Yan was so angry at Wen Yi that he had a headache.
A discount is definitely possible, and the person in charge of the hotel here should give him some face... If Second Uncle Shen Zhongjun is not here today, Shen Yan can just say hello.
With Shen Zhongjun here, it would be inconvenient for Shen Yan to go to the hotel manager for such a small matter.
Shen Zhongjun knew that Gu Jun was having a party here and had even sent him some wine. How could he not know that the banquet hall was booked by Shen Yan? Now, if Shen Yan was asked to ask for a discount, he would be speechless.
Chen Yansheng and Wen Yiyi always speak big words first.
It was like this last time I borrowed the dress, and it’s the same this time when they said it was on a discount.
If things weren't done properly, she would demand to pay for it herself.
The money for the dress was indeed paid by Wen Yiyi herself, but the subsequent impact caused by the dress was paid for by the company, including reimbursing Xu Yao for the money spent on buying hot searches!
Shen Yan tried hard to suppress his anger. He felt that the waiters around him were eavesdropping with their ears perked up.
Were the waiters making fun of him?
It's a joke that this "Young Master of the Shen Family" has very little weight in the Shen Family in Nancheng.
The people in the banquet hall must be laughing at him too.
It's funny that he condoned other people's bragging, making other students mistakenly believe that this hotel belonged to him.
"Shen's Hotel" and "Chen Yan's Hotel" sound like only one word difference, but in fact the difference is huge.
Others may not know about the estrangement between Chen Yan's family and the old house, but Xu Yao definitely knows!
Second uncle sent wine to Gu Jun but didn't care about him, which made him feel ashamed.
Chen Yan had managed to maintain composure during the banquet just now, but now that Wen Yiyi had called him out of the banquet hall, his forced composure vanished. He no longer wanted to go back to the banquet hall. This wasn't his class reunion, so why should he go through all that trouble with Wen Yiyi?
"I want to go back."
Chen Yan's excuse was perfunctory, and Wen Yiyi chased after him, "If you leave like this, how am I going to tell everyone when I go in later?"
"You can say I'm not feeling well, or that there's an emergency at work, whatever you want."
Chen Yan was determined to leave, and no matter how Wen Yiyi tried to persuade him, it was useless.
Looking at Chen Yan's back, Wen Yiyi cursed him as a bastard, and couldn't help crying after cursing.
Is this her fault?
She didn't know why Shen Zhongjun wanted to send red wine to Gu Jun!
If Chen Yan didn't also want to show off in front of Xu Yao and Gu Jun, why would he actively help her arrange a venue for the class reunion?
Is there no other suitable venue in the entire South City? We must book it at the Shen family’s hotel... Chen Yan did it on purpose.
Those boys wanted to please Chen Yan and ridicule Gu Jun, but Chen Yan didn't stop them!
Everyone has dark thoughts, so why should the blame be placed on her alone?
Chen Yan had no face to return to the banquet hall. Did she feel proud to go back alone? Chen Yan would never do such a thing when he was with Xu Yao before!
Wen Yiyi broke down and cried. Afraid of being laughed at, she hid in the lounge nearby.
Next to the lounge is the smoking room. The two rooms are separated by a glass wall, and the middle section of the glass wall is frosted to protect privacy.
Wen Yiyi saw Teacher Li and Gu Jun enter the smoking room. She tried to shrink herself into the sofa in the lounge. She must not let Gu Jun see her in such a miserable state!
It turned out that Teacher Li was craving for cigarettes, so Gu Jun accompanied Teacher Li to smoke two cigarettes.
The sound insulation of the glass wall was not very good. Wen Yiyi heard Gu Jun asking Teacher Li about the donation. Gu Jun said that he had read the documents archived by the school and the name of the donor was "Wen Yiyi".
Gu Jun wanted to know whether she was the donor.
Across the wall, Wen Yiyi opened her eyes wide.
Gu Jun's words reminded Wen Yiyi of a past event.
She did give Teacher Li some money.
After receiving the money, Teacher Li asked her to sign to prove the source of the money.
——So that money was given to Gu Jun? !
…
Hearing Gu Jun's question, the kind teacher Li frowned. "I thought you were really just here to smoke with me, but you're actually asking me about the donation. When I gave you the money, didn't I tell you that the donor didn't want to leave his name? I didn't expect that after all these years, you'd still be obsessed with it. You guessed I wouldn't tell you, so you took advantage of my absence to retrieve the school archived documents!"
Gu Jun smiled bitterly, "Of course I remember what you said back then. If my grandfather hadn't passed away, I would have been able to resist asking who the anonymous donor was. After he passed away, it's hard to rest in peace when I think about it. After all, without that money, my grandfather's illness wouldn't have been treated, and I would have dropped out of school. Ever since I was a child, my grandfather always said not to owe others debts and not repay them. Now that he's gone, this debt of gratitude has become an unsolved case."
Not owing debts is Gu Haishan’s principle in life.
So Gu Haishan was willing to sell everything he had to pay off the debt his daughter-in-law owed before she ran away from home.
Gu Jun was raised by Gu Haishan, and "not owing debts" became Gu Jun's principle.
Jiang Zhiyan invested in Gu Jun's business, and Gu Jun made Jiang Zhiyan the respected "General Jiang".
The school waived Gu Jun's tuition so that he wouldn't go hungry, and he gave the school a scholarship in return.
The only thing that Gu Jun hasn't repaid yet is the donation that saved Gu Haishan's life and prevented Gu Jun from dropping out of school in high school!
Teacher Li was stunned: "Your grandfather...when did this happen?"
"Last summer."
Gu Jun said in a low voice, "Xu Yao and I had already obtained our marriage certificate before Grandpa passed away, leaving him with no regrets."
Teacher Li didn't know what to say. He patted Gu Jun on the shoulder and comforted him to learn to look forward. "You are so successful now and have a family. The old man was relieved before he left. The donation from ten years ago should not become a debt of conscience for you. If you live a good life now, you won't be ungrateful to the donors... If you must ask, the money was indeed given to me by Wen Yiyi back then."
Could the person who made the anonymous donation really be Wen Yiyi?
Deep down, Gu Jun resisted this answer.
If the donor was really Wen Yiyi, why didn't she react when she saw him several times?
Gu Jun didn't think Wen Yiyi was the type of person who would do good without expecting anything in return.
"Wen Yiyi doesn't know that the money is donated to me?"
Gu Jun was very persistent in getting to the bottom of this. Teacher Li sighed, "You had such a strong sense of pride back then, and I don't want the students to look at you with sympathy. Wen Yiyi really doesn't know who the money will be used for. Not only does she not know, but the other students don't know either."
