Chapter 324 Unveiling the Mask



Gu Jinchen asked: "You haven't slept during this period?"

Pei Qinghuan rubbed his eyes and said, "About the same. It's just that I was catching the bus last night, so I'm extra sleepy today."

By the way, what did she do before going to bed? It seemed like she made a phone call to Su Ningyue...

Oh, right, investment!

This is a big deal concerning your wallet, so don’t forget it!

Pei Qinghuan sat up immediately.

Gu Jinchen asked in confusion: "What's wrong? Don't you want to sleep a little longer? Is it because of me? Then I'll go out now..."

Pei Qinghuan shook his head: "No, it's not because of Mr. Gu!"

She suddenly remembered Gu Jinchen's identity, and her eyes suddenly flashed.

"By the way, Mr. Gu! I have something very important to ask you."

Gu Jinchen asked doubtfully, "What's the matter?"

Pei Qinghuan sat upright and said, "It's a bit abrupt, but may I ask how much money you have?"

Gu Jinchen frowned subconsciously.

This woman, he thought she might change her personality, but she is still so stubborn and still loves money. Now she actually asks him directly, has she discovered his identity?

So this woman has been playing dumb all this time!

But why didn't he think this woman was ugly at all, but instead still had a good impression of her?

Is he crazy?! He's just like any other woman, obsessed with money!

The more Gu Jinchen thought about it, the angrier he became, and he suddenly turned around and walked out.

Pei Qinghuan was stunned.

What happened to Mr. Gu?

After thinking about it, I can only think that he might care more about his privacy.

In fact, she wanted Mr. Gu to invest in Su Ningyue's game as well. After all, this was a business that was sure to make money. Besides, Mr. Gu was her partner and had helped her so much, so of course she had to give him more in return.

But the problem is, Su Ningyue is her friend, not Mr. Gu’s friend. What if Mr. Gu feels there is a risk?

Pei Qinghuan thought about it and finally couldn't help but ask about the other party's assets. If there is a surplus after deducting living expenses and insurance, investing in this game is the safest and most profitable!

She really wanted to help Mr. Gu get rich together, but she had to get Mr. Gu's consent!

But now it seems that things have backfired. Mr. Gu not only has no intention to invest, he seems a little dissatisfied. By the way, didn't Mr. Gu sign a non-relationship agreement with her at the beginning?

Mr. Gu must be a very private person. How could she have the audacity to ask about his assets?!

Pei Qinghuan suddenly felt that he had committed a big taboo and became annoyed.

After thinking about it for a long time, I didn't know how to apologize, so I just called Mr. Gu: "Hello, Grandpa Gu."

Old Master Gu's voice was very cheerful: "Hey, what's the matter with your granddaughter-in-law calling? Are you missing an old man like me? It's really a shame that you didn't come to see me for so long."

Pei Qinghuan saw that the other party was about to start complaining and nagging, afraid that the topic would go off track, so he quickly said: "Um, Grandpa Gu, I really want to make Gu, no, make Jinchen angry. Do you know what he likes? I want to buy him a gift to apologize."

Mr. Gu's face was suddenly covered with wrinkles from laughing.

I didn’t expect Qing Huan to care so much about his cold-hearted grandson. That’s great, he’s going to be a great-grandfather soon!

"That kid hasn't had much of a hobby since he was a child, except for a bracelet. I'll send it to you. Try it on, I guarantee he'll like it!"

Pei Qinghuan didn't understand: "Gu, that's not right, does Jinchen like others wearing bracelets?"

I almost let it slip. This name is so embarrassing and unfamiliar.

Old Master Gu said cheerfully: "Yes, believe me, I have watched that boy grow up since he was a child."

Pei Qinghuan hung up the phone half-believing and half-doubting.

Old Master Gu smiled even more happily. He had finally tricked his granddaughter-in-law into wearing the ancestral bracelet. Before, when he wanted to give the girl something, she refused to accept it no matter what, which made him very anxious.

The bracelet arrived quickly, it was green and Pei Qinghuan was shocked.

It looks like jade, but where can you find jade that is this green? It must be fake. She looked at it for a few seconds and then put it on her wrist half-believingly.

It just so happened that Pei Qinghuan had nothing to do today, so he sat on the sofa, made tea, and waited for Mr. Gu to get off work.

The hands turned to half past six and there was a click from the door.

Pei Qinghuan knew that Mr. Gu was coming back, so he jumped up and helped open the door.

Gu Jinchen was stunned for a moment.

This woman is so attentive today and even went out of her way to greet him?

But this doesn’t seem bad…

Gu Jinchen tilted his head slightly and asked awkwardly, "What do you want to eat today?"

Humph, such attentiveness must be for dinner.

As a result, when he turned his head, he saw the bracelet on Pei Qinghuan's wrist, and his eyes were stern.

Pei Qinghuan had just breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that Mr. Gu's tone had softened, probably because he had calmed down a lot. Before he could organize his words, he saw Mr. Gu's face become gloomy again, and he went into his room without looking back.

It’s difficult. He’s still angry.

Pei Qinghuan sighed. Dinner would be better...

She'll do it?

She looked at the ingredients that Mr. Gu had not yet taken away and walked into the kitchen nervously.

Gu Jinchen sat alone on a chair in the room, staring at the corner dully.

I didn't expect that woman to actually trick that out of my grandfather. He has indeed been exposed.

And he welcomed her so warmly tonight. It was obvious that he had tasted the sweetness from his grandfather and came to him to curry favor and cheat him of his money.

This woman! It's not that easy to deceive him!

Gu Jinchen was planning how to uncover Pei Qinghuan's mask when he smelled a fragrance coming from the kitchen.

Then there was a knock on the door.
