Chapter 117 Jiang Bei's Gratitude



"Tsk, one man is allowed to have two women, he's quite extravagant."

"Puff~ cough cough cough cough..."

The water in Xie Jinyu's mouth sprayed out directly, and he coughed until his face turned red and his neck became thick.

The moment he opened his mouth, Gu Zuozuo disappeared from the chair and stood far away from him, afraid that she would get a drop of water on her.

"Don't act like I'm such a scumbag."

Xie Jinyu shook his head with an expression that said he was wronged.

"Besides, you didn't take the engagement seriously, did you? Can I force you to acknowledge it? As for her, ah, she approached me with a purpose. She could fool my mother, but she couldn't fool me."

Gu Zuozuo crossed her arms and looked at his miserable appearance, raising her eyebrows in schadenfreude.

"If you use your ability on everyone, you'll probably be single for the rest of your life."

"If I'm single, I'm single. Calling me a dog is too much. Besides, I don't want to analyze people's intentions as soon as I meet them. It's a work habit that I can't change."

His profession cultivated in him the habit of being alert at all times. Even when he returned home to face his parents and relatives, he would still first use his supernatural powers to survey his surroundings. This was almost as ingrained in his bones as his faith.

Gu Zuozuo didn't intend to continue this topic and pointed outside.

"Jiang Bei is not dead. He even awakened his gold-type supernatural power in a blessing in disguise. If you still want this soldier, you should get well quickly. The boss of the National Supernatural Bureau has already started recruiting him."

She was right. Wang Erzhu had already been rubbing his hands together and trying to poach people. It was said that he was determined to pester people into the National Foreign Affairs Bureau.

A confident smile appeared on Xie Jinyu's gentle face, and her eyes, which could look at a dog with deep affection, curved into crescents.

"You have to believe in my charisma as a leader. My soldiers have been with me for at least four years. I can't just poach them just because someone wants to."

Gu Zuozuo couldn't stand his smug look of being confident in everything, and couldn't help but speak back to him.

"Heh~ No matter how attractive she is, she still has spies?"

First Blood

"It is said that there is more than one spy!"

~Double Kill

"The spy even directly overturned your regiment!"

~Triple Kill

"I can even kidnap your soldiers right under your nose!"

~Quadra Kill

"I almost killed you!"

~Penta Kill

Xie Jinyu covered his chest with his hands in pain, his face turning from blue to white, then to red, and finally to purple, looking extremely miserable.

The unparalleled spirit of the elegant young man in the past has completely disappeared, and he is like a stupid roe deer who refuses to admit defeat and is stubborn even though he is not right.

“Puff~”

Gu Zuozuo, amused by his reaction, waved his hand and stood up to leave.

"I'm going back now. I came to say goodbye to you. Take good care of your injuries. We'll see you again someday!"

After saying this, without waiting for Xie Jinyu to reply, the man disappeared into the house. He left very cleanly and neatly without any trace of nostalgia.

Xie Jinyu stared at the direction where she disappeared for a while, then sat back on the bed weakly, staring blankly at a certain point in the void.

She is no longer the original Zuo Zuo, doesn't he know that?

But why do I still feel so sad...

"Boss! Look... uh..."

Jiang Bei's cheerful voice was still in the air, and his right foot, which was about to step into the house, froze in mid-air, neither falling nor not falling.

What's wrong with his boss? He looks like he's about to cry.

"Are you standing by the door like a gatekeeper? Why don't you just get in?"

Gu Zuozuo appeared again, and he was already in the villa he bought in Bauhinia Garden in Hong Kong City.

"Miss? When did you come back?"

The woman in a neat suit saw her and immediately smiled with her white teeth showing.

"I just came back not long ago. How is the company?"

She founded a real estate company in Hong Kong in 1973 and has been busy with it for the past two years. After the company gained a firm foothold, she gradually let go and let her subordinates take charge. She only showed up occasionally to give instructions on the general direction.

Besides, with a system helping her monitor the company's finances at all times, she has nothing to worry about.

"Don't worry, Miss. Everything is normal in the company. How long do you plan to stay here this time?"

"You can't stay long. Did you stay in the two villas I asked you to stay in?"

"The ones that were left were three buildings in Deep Water Bay, and they're connected!"

Gu Zuozuo looked at the three property deeds and nodded with satisfaction.

Although houses in Hong Kong were expensive at that time, they were not as astronomical as they are in later times.

Two of these three buildings are wedding gifts prepared for Meng Tian and Qi Meng. I will consider them as my blessings to them on behalf of the original owners.

And they both have their own crushes, so they will probably get married soon, right?

In this age where blind dating is equivalent to marriage, she doesn't think that the two of them are planning to change partners. Maybe this is the only wedding in their lifetime?

After saying goodbye to the woman and leaving a plan for the coming year, Gu Zuozuo went straight back to Malutun.

It was already October, the beginning of winter. As soon as she stood still, she felt the whistling cold wind.

The whole Malutun was bustling with activity at this time. The laughter of the older children leading the younger children could be heard from far away, and the hearty laughter of the aunts and sisters could be heard from even farther away?

"Gu Zhiqing! When did you come back?"

As soon as the woman in the floral cotton jacket pushed open the door, she was startled by Gu Zuozuo standing at the door.
