Chapter 8
The small desk lamp on Su He's desk was working every night. The room was always filled with the sound of pen tips rubbing against paper, and the manuscripts on the desk were piling up higher and higher.
The room is located in a remote area and few people come here. There is also a small balcony next to it. He occasionally carries the fish tank to the balcony to let the goldfish bask in the sun. On some not-so-hot nights, he sits on the balcony with a notebook and writes.
He thought no one would notice, but in fact, Sheng Jin and the terrace outside the bedroom were just above his head.
Very occasionally, Sheng Jinyu would stand on the terrace and look down, and would see Su He repairing potted plants, or cleaning the fish tank, changing the water and feeding the fish.
Just like now.
Sheng Jinyu was playing with the lighter in his hand, the black, gold-plated cigarette body between his fingers. The lid of the lighter opened and closed with a click, but it didn't light up in the end.
From this angle, he could only see Su He sitting on the balcony, trimming the water plants for the goldfish in the fish tank. Only the whorl of hair on his head and a small part of his white chin were exposed.
He asked himself if he had ever seen a man with such delicate skin, which seemed to be glowing under the light.
Like a white water lily growing in a pond, the raindrops hitting the petals looked no different from falling on his face.
Yan Yichen's voice came from the Bluetooth headset: "It's been more than half a month, and you haven't gotten rid of him yet?"
"How did I know he was so difficult?" Sheng Jinyu's voice sounded a little annoyed. "Sheng Zonglan has pushed people around me before, but I've never seen anyone like this."
I've never seen someone so willing to be pushed around and flattened, yet still maintain a good mood...
Many people have been stuffed around him since he was a child. Sheng Zonglan has his own set of standards for selecting people. Most of those people are from aristocratic families and are quite arrogant. Not many of them are ambitious to have a good relationship with him.
But almost no one could stand Sheng Jinyu's cold treatment, and they all resigned after not staying for long.
This gave him a moment of leisure, and then the cycle began again.
There is always someone sent to Sheng Jinyu for various reasons.
But when it came to Su He, the situation was different.
No matter how he treated this person, Su He seemed unaffected by him. He continued to live his own life happily, and only bothered him with some trivial matters every day.
He intentionally or unintentionally picked on Su He and restricted his freedom of movement in the house, so Su He stayed obediently in the permitted area.
He spoke in a harsh way and often said unpleasant things, but Su He didn't seem to take it to heart and still greeted him with a smile.
"Is he planning some big move? It's not good to go on like this. Since we can't drive him away, how about... you try to test him?" Yan Yichen said.
Sheng Jinyu actually had this in mind, but he didn't say it out loud: "Let's talk about it later, I'm hanging up."
He hung up the phone, stared at the people downstairs, and tapped his fingertips on the marble railing with a frequency that became increasingly impatient. After a while, he muttered something.
"These two fish are so precious."
·
Great upheavals are always happening frequently in Guangzhou. A few days ago, a new municipal committee was transferred in, which caused a big earthquake. Many people were implicated and some were flying away and some were falling down.
The Sheng family took advantage of the policy and soared even higher like a lit firecracker.
Sheng Jin had too many things to familiarize himself with. He had been at Sheng’s headquarters for several days. There were too many relationships to smooth out and too many people to deal with.
Visiting cards were handed to him one after another, and he had no time to pay attention to the "hot potato" at home.
Sheng Zonglan decided at the board meeting to hand over Zhisen Capital, a financial branch of Shengshi, to Sheng Jinyu.
As soon as the news came out, dozens of pairs of eyes in the Sheng family stared at him like hungry wolves, fearing that they would not be able to find any mistakes in him and would not be able to report him at the next family meeting.
Sheng Jinyu did not return to Jingshan for two consecutive days and stayed at the InterContinental Hotel near the company at night.
After enduring two consecutive nights, Sheng Jin, who already had sequelae from the concussion, finally found a reason to torture him again.
It felt like there was a meat grinder in my head, and it hurt so much that I wanted to bang my head against the wall.
Assistant Fang wanted to send someone back to get some medicine, but found that someone had already delivered it.
Few people in Xiaoxie Garden were so attentive. After asking carefully, he found out that it was Su He who asked S037 to contact the driver to deliver it, and it also came with a bowl of Cordyceps, Pork Tripe and Chicken Soup, which was probably made by Su He himself.
Assistant Fang was so sure because the chef at Xiaoxie Garden didn't use thermos buckets for packing.
The white porcelain cups are all filled with boiling water, and the hot water is changed every ten minutes. When they arrive at the place and are placed on the table directly, they are still steaming.
As soon as Assistant Fang saw the thermos, he guessed who made it.
However, timely rain can quench the thirst of a dry land. Assistant Fang didn't pick and choose, and delivered it to his boss quickly without saying who sent it.
Sheng Jinyu was probably very tired. He didn't know whether he could taste the hot soup or not, and fell asleep on the sofa with his clothes on.
When I woke up, it was dark.
Assistant Fang brought a piece of news, saying that Su He was called back to the old house by Sheng Zonglan. Sheng Jinyu rubbed his throbbing temples and sneered, "Just in time, let's go back and take a look."
When he got home, Su He had just entered the villa.
As soon as he dealt with the big boss, he welcomed the little ancestor in.
Su He felt that his life was like walking on thin ice. He looked at Sheng Jin and his imposing steps, and felt inexplicably nervous.
I'm not sure whether Sheng Jinyu knew that he was called to the old house. If he didn't know, could he be treated leniently if he confessed voluntarily?
Sheng Jinyu unbuttoned his suit as he entered the room and took off his coat lazily. Out of the corner of his eye, he saw Su He following him happily, like a tail, as if he had something to say.
He stopped and turned around.
Su He was distracted and almost fell into Sheng Jinyu's arms. Fortunately, he reacted quickly and stopped himself to avoid an accident.
"Why are you so nervous?" Sheng Jinyu's eyes were like an eagle staring at its prey, judging him without any concealment.
Su He hesitated for two seconds and then confessed everything: "I just met Chairman Sheng, and he asked me a lot about you."
Sheng Jin stood with his back to the light, looking down at him. The setting sun poured down from his side, too dazzling. Su He could only look away and look carefully at his toes.
He was wearing a pair of lotus green slippers with an inflatable frog on the upper that jumped as he walked.
He bought this when he went out to buy fish food for his goldfish, but now it looks more like the native resident of this home than the pair of shiny black leather shoes opposite him.
"I thought you wouldn't tell me," Sheng Jinyi's tone was calm, but there was a hint of impending trouble. "What did you say?"
Su He said, "I said I didn't know, but I didn't know anyway. You wouldn't let me into your room, and you wouldn't let me go out with you, but you forgot to bring the medicine. Doctor Gu said rehabilitation treatment is very important at this stage..."
He was getting off topic, but it was true.
His spy was clueless about everything. Chairman Sheng was silent for a long time after asking the question. Just when Su He felt that he was going to be killed.
Secretary Chen looked at him and said, "President Sheng had already guessed this would happen. The young master is a cautious man. It's rare that you've stayed with him for this long. The next task is to gain his trust first."
"This is not an easy task, Mr. Su. It depends on you." Secretary Chen patted him on the shoulder.
Su He got the affirmation without knowing why, and a heavy burden was placed on his shoulders.
He finished speaking haltingly, raised his head, and found that Sheng Jinyuye was staring at him with cold eyes.
It seemed as if she was trying to decide whether to believe what he said.
After a while, Sheng Jinyu stretched out his hand expressionlessly and suddenly said, "Take it out."
"What?"
"cell phone."
Su He subconsciously took out his phone and put it in his hand, but Sheng Jinyu didn't move. He looked at him and said, "You know that's not what I'm talking about."
Where is that...wait!
He suddenly remembered that he seemed to have come to the first node of the plot in the book. When the original owner went back to report for the first time after following Sheng Jinyu, the villain gave the original owner a new mobile phone with some tricks on it.
The cell phone had a monitoring and positioning function, and it was precisely because it was with the original owner that Sheng Jinyu did not become suspicious.
But how did Sheng Jinyu know about the existence of the cell phone? !
Su He took it out of his pocket reluctantly. In fact, he had no intention of using it, but before he could put it down, he was discovered.
He handed it over nervously.
The next second, a huge crash exploded past his ears.
The phone flew onto the wall and shattered into pieces. The glass on the shell shattered all over the floor, and a big hole was smashed into the carved wall.
Su He was startled and his whole body shook violently. He was a person who could not stand being frightened easily. Even the little frogs on the toes of his shoes were shaking, and his eyelids and eyelashes were blinking non-stop.
Sheng Jinyu leaned over and picked up two things from the debris on the ground and placed them in front of Su He: "Do you recognize them?"
Su He looked at the two black objects, and his intuition told him that they should be monitoring and positioning devices.
But he still shook his head.
Sheng Jin sneered: "Didn't Sheng Zonglan tell you how to use these things?"
"The micro-locator and the N8 chip eavesdropper can even hear your heartbeat clearly."
Sheng Jinyu casually threw the stopped-working parts into the trash can, brushed off the dust on his hands, and looked at him again: "Do you really not know, or are you just pretending, Assistant Su?"
Su Gan: QAQ! !
How to answer this?
It’s not that he was completely unaware of it, but he didn’t know it much earlier than Sheng Jinyu!
So does this count as knowing or not knowing?
Sheng Jinyu's questioning expression was cold and fierce. Looking down at him, the oppressive feeling was quite strong.
Su He had a premonition that he would be chopped into pieces in the next second, so he suddenly thought of a solution and shouted, "We can cooperate!"
"What?" Sheng Jinyu obviously didn't expect him to say that.
"I don't have to risk being killed by you to work for your father. It's fine if I don't tell him." After saying that, Su He felt a little lacking in confidence.
"But if I help you, I might be killed by him first, so you have to protect me, okay?" Su He frowned and looked at Sheng Jinyu with a worried look on his face.
The pair of light brown eyes in front of him looked pitiful and sincere, as if they were really asking for help. Sheng Jin looked away uncomfortably.
What is going on? A delaying tactic?
First trick him into letting his guard down, then take advantage of his trust and stab him?
Sheng Jinyu thought for a moment and raised his eyebrows: "Why should I believe you?"
Su He was stunned. He really didn't have any chips to prove his words, so he could only say: "Anyway, you were so guarded against me, I didn't have the chance to report you."
Sheng Jinyu listened to the accusatory tone and suddenly smiled: "It's good that you know."
After saying that, he went upstairs without looking back and without leaving a single word.
S037, who had been watching the entire confrontation from the corner, hurried over and asked, "Are you okay, Su He? Are you scared?"
Su He scratched his ear: "Yes, a little."
It summoned a sweeping robot to clean up the battlefield and comforted Su He: "Don't be afraid. Chairman Sheng sent many people here before you. Although they left after a short stay, the young master has since dismantled 26 surveillance and eavesdropping devices in the house, so..."
Su He was really shocked by this number and asked, "Was it demolished later?"
"They've all been demolished! Including the one in your room. The young master personally led his men to demolish them." S037 replied.
Even his room has...

You wealthy people are so perverted!
