280: He is Fu Hong’s financial sponsor
Sister Tan originally just thought that Gu Jun was not an ordinary person.
Now that Gu Jun's identity has been revealed, Sister Tan has become more polite to him.
The houses in this neighborhood weren't bad, and would be perfect for a billionaire, but they weren't luxurious enough for Gu Jun. Sister Tan thought about the reason why Gu Jun bought a house here, and she felt very emotional.
Of course there is no problem in helping to look after Jason. Most people don’t have the opportunity to help the big boss.
Knowing too much but not being able to say it is a torture for Sister Tan.
Sister Tan didn't know what to talk to Gu Jun about, so she pointed at the house and said, "Jason hasn't left the house since he came back at noon. He usually goes to the yard to water the flowers, but he didn't water them today. You should go back and check on them."
"Thanks!"
Gu Jun knew the reason why Jason behaved abnormally.
When he entered the room, Jason was not downstairs. There was dinner on the table that Gu Jun had sent to him at a fixed time, but it looked like Jason hadn't touched it.
Gu Jun went upstairs and saw Jason drawing.
Gu Jun didn't disturb Jason.
Jason came downstairs over an hour later. Gu Jun told him not to rush into painting a new piece. "The money Jiang Zhiyan earned from buying 'Garden' should be enough for you to use for a long time. Also, the 'Fate' I took away earlier has been sent to the auction house for appraisal. You can take a break for a while before creating a new painting. It's hard to impress people when you don't have inspiration."
Jason looked a little anxious.
Gu Jun pretended not to notice, but in the end Jason couldn't hold it in any longer.
"The Black Sea has been sent back to South City."
"The exhibition is ending so soon?"
"Well... I want to go out tomorrow to pick up the painting."
Jason mustered up his courage and said, "You don't have to arrange a driver to take me there. I can go get the painting myself. You arranged everything for me, and I didn't have the chance to exercise myself."
Exercising himself was a good reason, so Gu Jun agreed.
"No problem, go get it. Once you get the painting, send it directly to Hua Hu. Since you want to train yourself, I won't ask about the handover of 'Black Sea'. You can handle it yourself."
Jason breathed a sigh of relief.
"good."
Gu Jun patted him and said, "Eat first. The food is getting cold. Do you want me to heat it up for you?"
Jason shook his head, "I can heat up the food."
Jason was the second person who ate absent-mindedly in front of Gu Jun today. Gu Jun watched Jason finish his meal before leaving.
The next morning, Gu Jun went to the company to be interviewed by a portal website. Hearing that Jason had gone out alone, Gu Jun rushed over by car. Jason didn't go to the hotel where Fu Hong had been staying. Jason met a man in a very ordinary cafe.
The man looked to be about fifty years old, with obvious white hair on his temples and his facial features did not look particularly outstanding.
Gu Jun couldn't tell whether he was more excited or disappointed.
This is the "financial backer" behind Fu Hong.
Did Fu Hong abandon her husband and children for this man?
Gu Jun really didn't see what was so attractive about the other person. If one only looked at the appearance, this man was far inferior to Gu Jun's father, Gu Wenting. Fu Hong gave up Gu Wenting and chose this man only for other reasons - the man must have been financially strong. 20 years ago, he could have supported Jason to study painting, and he could have arranged for Fu Hong and Jason to live in a townhouse. Later, he simply let Fu Hong and Jason immigrate together.
This financial strength is much stronger than that of Gu Wenting, a math teacher!
Gu Jun sat in the car and looked across.
The assistant gave Gu Jun an earphone so that he could hear the conversation between Jason and the man.
Gu Jun hired someone to help take care of Jason's daily life, so it was not difficult for him to tamper with Jason's personal belongings.
Jason and the man's conversation came from the headphones.
The man cared about Jason very much and wanted to know whether Gu Jun was good to Jason. He also asked a lot of details about Gu Jun and Jason's daily interactions. The man seemed to want to understand Gu Jun from these details.
Jason trusts the man very much and cares about him very much. He repeatedly persuades the man to take Fu Hong away from South City.
"If you leave, don't come back."
"Don't worry about me. I'm doing well in South City. My brother treats me well."
"I like the South City and I don't like immigrants."
"I don't want her to be my agent anymore. I will take care of my paintings myself from now on."
The man's expression changed from surprise to solemnity.
Jason's words sounded so heartless.
The man could understand Jason and Fu Hong's quarrel, and he also knew that some of Fu Hong's actions were wrong. But no matter what, Jason's current situation is indeed inseparable from Fu Hong's persistence. Fu Hong's paranoia hurt Jason, but also made Jason successful!
Before, the man didn’t understand why Jiang Zhiyan would spend eight figures to ask Jason to customize a painting.
Now the man knows that Jiang Zhiyan is not too rich and has no place to spend it. Jiang Zhiyan has acknowledged that Gu Jun is the founder of Huahu. Gu Jun's status in Huahu must be higher than Jiang Zhiyan. Jiang Zhiyan is the boss of Huahu in name only, but in fact, Gu Jun has always been the actual helmsman of Huahu!
Gu Jun arranged all this after he found out Fu Hong had returned to Nancheng: Jiang Zhiyan was interested in buying the painting, Fu Hong was deliberately looked down upon by Jiang Zhiyan, Jiang Zhiyan left Fu Hong aside and met with Jason alone, Jason signed a contract with Jiang Zhiyan himself, the contract without an agreed selling price angered Fu Hong, the relationship between mother and son deteriorated rapidly, Gu Jun took Jason away... Every step of this was Gu Jun trying to alienate the relationship between Fu Hong and Jason!
"Lin Sen, you are a very smart child. Can't you see what Gu Jun's purpose is?"
The man always spoke gently to Jason, so this was a rare instance of harshness.
Jason lowered his head and said nothing. The man also suppressed his anger: "He is doing this to sow discord between you and your mother. He has always held a grudge against your mother. Now that he has the ability to change the situation, of course he wants to take revenge on your mother. He helped you sell your paintings, bought that house for you to live in, and sent your paintings to auction houses to build momentum. These are all his means to win you over. Which of these things has your mother not done for you? You can't completely forget your mother's efforts just because Gu Jun did these things!"
Jason lowered his head even further.
The man's anger suddenly became uncontrollable, and his voice became higher. "Linsen, don't evade these questions. Answer me clearly. Have you really been bought off by Gu Jun's petty favors? Are you going to abandon me and your mother and run to your richer brother? Because he has a more powerful backer. With his help, you can become a world-renowned painter!"
This series of questions overwhelmed Jason. He wanted to refute, but his mind went blank and he couldn't form a complete sentence.
Jason wasn't good at talking back to anyone, and he was even less capable of doing so when he was panicked.
The man glared at Jason, and someone walked over to the two of them and put a hand on Jason's shoulder.
The person who came was Gu Jun.
"Jason."
Gu Jun's voice was calm. "Sometimes being immoral can bring you greater happiness. As long as you're immoral, others can't hold you morally hostage. You don't owe anyone a favor. Your parents brought you into this world without even asking for your opinion, and they unilaterally raised you to be a painter without even asking for your opinion. They all say it's for your own good. If it's truly for your own good, shouldn't they respect your own opinions?"
