After searching in the basement for more than an hour, Gu Yan found nothing.
He irritably put everything back into the box and took it upstairs to his room, intending to study it that night.
As soon as I left the basement, I heard a female voice above my head: "What's wrong, Mr. Gu? You don't look in a good mood."
Zheng Beibei arrived at some point and stood at the basement entrance, covering her mouth and nose with one hand, with a look of disgust on her face.
What's this idiot doing here again? Is he here to see a joke?
Gu Yan didn't find the watch and was in a bad mood. He said with a sullen face, "Pick up my grandfather's belongings."
"When my grandfather was alive, he often told me that Grandpa Gu liked to do charity and was a good man. I have always admired him." Zheng Beibei sighed.
"Why are you here?" Gu Yan was feeling annoyed. He wanted to go back and look through it carefully. He was not in the mood to act with Zheng Beibei.
"I just want to ask you, how is Shen Yinan's investment going?" Zheng Beibei did not hide her true purpose.
"He agreed."
"That's great! When will the funds be available? My friends are urging me!"
When she heard that the other party had asked for 10 million, Zheng Beibei immediately smiled happily.
Gu Yan hesitated for a moment: "Just in the next few days, he said he needs to make some preparations."
Need to prepare? Ten million is still necessary?
Zheng Beibei sneered with some disdain.
It seems that Xue Du doesn't like this boyfriend very much, and Shen Yinan has to prepare the 10 million by himself.
According to her understanding, Hongyu International has a new president, and Shen Yinan approved a lot of funds to invest in projects as soon as his father replaced him, and now the working capital is tight.
She specially hired someone to set up this project. Ten million was just the first batch of funds. The amount would grow like a snowball. Once it started rolling, it would not be easy to exit.
Even if Shen Yinan stopped the loss in time, it would make Xue Du realize what a stupid and brainless idiot the person next to him was.
Zheng Beibei knew that she had no chance to be with Xue Du.
But she also didn't want other people to be with Xue Du.
Why? She had been secretly in love with Xue Du for so many years, from her youth to now, she only had eyes for Xue Du, but Xue Du cast all his eyes on another inconspicuous boy.
Xue Du had clearly said before that he had someone he liked.
It would be fine if it was someone he liked, but she had never even heard of the name Ana Shen!
How could she be willing to do that?
Gu Yan glanced at Zheng Beibei, whose expression was changing unpredictably, and knew that this woman was going crazy again.
But it doesn't matter, it's a matter of each taking what they need.
Rather, he also hoped that Zheng Beibei could get Xue Du. He just couldn't stand Shen Yinan's bullying.
Gu Yan raised his leg, intending to go upstairs around Zheng Beibei, but because his movement was too big, a photo fell into the folder that he was not holding firmly.
It was the one where Xue Du was.
Gu Yan's scalp tingled and he hurried to pick it up.
But a hand picked up the photo before him.
Zheng Beibei stared at the white-haired boy in the photo, her voice trembling: "Is this Xue Du? Why is he in this photo?"
"This was a charity event my grandfather used to organize. I think he attended it."
Of course, Gu Yan couldn't tell anyone about the deal between him and Shen Yinan.
Are you kidding? Zheng Beibei approached him because she thought he could get Shen Yinan's investment. If this woman knew that he didn't get it, how could he get a share of the pie?
He raised his hand to take the photo away, but Zheng Beibei refused to let go.
"Can you give me this photo?" Her eyes were red.
Gu Yan: “…”
Is this woman a stalker? That's terrifying.
"Okay, take it." It's just a photo.
He was now in a hurry to go upstairs to figure out how to prove that the Gu family had funded Shen Yinan, and he didn't take this trivial matter to heart, so he just gave it to her and left.
Zheng Beibei felt like she had found a treasure. She smiled shyly at Xue Du in the photo, put the photo away, and her thoughts drifted away again.
She remembered that when Xue Du first dyed his hair white, the whole school was in an uproar. The dean of studies couldn't believe that the top student in the grade would be so outrageous.
But due to Xue Du's grades and the Xue family's status, and the fact that summer vacation was just a few days away, he was ordered to dye his hair back before the next semester.
A few days before the final exam, someone passed by the class every day and secretly looked inside.
After school, girls would often stop Xue Du and whisper their love to him in the empty stairwell with blushing faces.
Xue Du would politely refuse them. Sometimes, if the girls cried too hard, he would walk with them for a while and send them home.
But more people don’t have the courage to confess, so they can only secretly watch and fantasize about who he will be with in the future.
Zheng Beibei was one of them, and she didn't even dare to say a word.
She often secretly looked at Xue Du's back, watching him refuse to confess his love again and again, thinking to herself that this man would never fall in love with anyone in the future, and would never fall in love with anyone.
That's fine too. It's more reassuring for him to be alone than to belong to someone else.
Later, even when she was working, Zheng Beibei was still concerned about Xue Du's feelings. When she heard some rumors about him and a boy, she just thought it was a joke.
But when she saw that he actually logged into the social software that he hadn't logged into for a long time, just to say that he had a boyfriend, she knew that Xue Du was really not playing around, he was serious.
The more she saw Xue Du’s ruthlessness towards others, the more she envied Shen Yinan’s existence.
Why can that kind of person do it but she can't?
Zheng Beibei thought about it and posted a circle of friends that only Xue Du could see.
