Chapter 193: The Future Richest Man!
Chu Yan paused, turned to look at Gu Yin, and saw that her face looked terrible, she was staring coldly at Xia Tian, and the grip on his arm was getting tighter and tighter.
Chu Yan also looked up.
Although Feng Jiangyue was telling the truth, Xia Tian still needed her, so he forced a smile and said, "Sister-in-law, you can't blame me for the mistakes my mom and the others made. I know you've always been good to me, and you're the only one I acknowledge! You're my sister-in-law! Mu Yuxin, the Zhou family, none of that has anything to do with me! I gave my mom a good scolding after I found out about this. I haven't contacted you because I don't know how to face you, so I was thinking of just putting it off until later!"
Feng Jiangyue crossed her arms and sneered, "Kid, all those years of schooling weren't for nothing. Your little tricks can't hide from me at all. Your face is full of scheming! You're not that old, but you're more cunning than your mother! Get lost! I'm annoyed just looking at your Xia family!" Of course, except for her boyfriend.
After finishing her sentence, Feng Jiangyue ignored Xia Tian and walked downstairs.
Gu Yin grabbed Chu Yan and followed Feng Jiangyue's steps.
Upon entering the office, Feng Jiangyue said helplessly, "Although I don't acknowledge my boyfriend in front of Xia Tian, he is still Xia Zhi's younger brother. So, on behalf of my boyfriend, I apologize to you for making you feel wronged."
Gu Yin shook her head. She approached Feng Jiangyue and asked in a low voice, "Teacher, which Zhou family were you talking about with Xia Tian just now?"
Feng Jiangyue didn't expect Gu Yin to ask this. She asked in confusion, "You mean the Zhou family, the shipping magnates of Hong Kong? Didn't your master say before that you look a lot like Old Madam Zhou? You mean that family? What's wrong?"
Gu Yin's mind raced. So, after Li Dazhi, Xia Tian was arranged by the Zhou family! But according to the time Xia Tian arrived, he arrived earlier than Li Dazhi, and Xia Tian hadn't appeared in front of her this past year. Could it be that Li Dazhi and Xia Tian have different people behind them?
"It's nothing, it just sounds familiar. But Master, is Grandmaster really willing to give up the Zhou family and follow you?"
Watching Gu Yin keep probing, Chu Yan remained silent.
Feng Jiangyue waved her hand and laughed, "How could your master's family possibly be related to the Zhou family! The person who's interested in him isn't from the Zhou family, but a junior from your master's school. I don't know where she met your master, but she's been relentlessly pursuing him. It just so happens that this junior knows the Zhou family's daughter, and Madam Xia thinks that as long as Xia Zhi gets together with that junior, then the Xia family will have hitched a ride on the Zhou family's coattails. Even if they don't get any benefit, just being able to get even a little bit connected to the Zhou family would be very advantageous for the Xia family!"
Gu Yin nodded: "Does the Zhou family's daughter know that her junior sister is acting recklessly because of her reputation? Even if the daughter knows, does the head of the Zhou family allow it?" Isn't it said that the rules of large families are very strict?
Feng Jiangyue sighed: "It seems that the Zhou family's daughter knows about it. She even accompanied that junior sister to the Xia family. But whether the old master Zhou knows about it, I don't know. I guess he probably doesn't. After all, the Zhou family's main base is in Hong Kong. The old master Zhou and his wife are always active in Hong Kong and abroad. They don't seem to come to the mainland very often. They probably don't know what the Zhou family's daughter did."
Gu Yin wanted to ask something more, but the bell rang, so she had no choice but to leave the office.
On the way back, Chu Yan noticed that Gu Yin was deep in thought. She seemed to have forgotten that she was still holding his hand. Seeing that the classmates passing by were staring at the two of them, he was worried that Gu Yin might get into trouble, so he had no choice but to ask, "What are you thinking about?"
Gu Yin snapped out of her daze and was stunned when she saw Chu Yan: "What are you doing here?"
Chu Yan: "..." He silently raised his hand and looked at Gu Yin quietly.
Gu Yin realized she was holding onto the other person's arm and asking what they were doing there. Her head ached, so she immediately let go and said apologetically, "Sorry, I was lost in thought."
Chu Yan pursed his lips and looked to the side, ignoring her.
Seeing him like this, Gu Yin touched her nose, walked up to him, and said slowly, "Are you angry?" It wasn't that Gu Yin was ignoring him; she was just thinking about something and automatically ignored everything around her.
Chu Yan shook his head: "No."
Gu Yin: "...Look at your face, it's practically ice crystals falling off, and you still haven't?! Oh, I'm sorry, really! I promise it won't happen again! I still need your help with something, if you're really angry, then I won't dare to say anything."
Hearing that she needed his help, Chu Yan, who had been looking at her toes, immediately looked up and asked, "What is it?"
Seeing him like this, Gu Yin couldn't help but laugh: "You're not angry anymore?"
"Okay, what is it?"
Gu Yin's smile faded, and she said seriously, "I want you to help me find information about the Zhou family in Hong Kong, information about everyone in the family, starting from when Old Master Zhou started his fortune. Is it possible to find that? If it's too difficult, we can take it slowly and find as much as we can."
When Gu Yin asked Feng Jiangyue about the Zhou family, Chu Yan guessed that she had a secret. However, since she was unwilling to talk about it, he didn't ask. Anyway, if she needed help, he would help her.
“No problem, but my family doesn’t have any businesses in Hong Kong, so it might take a while.” There are too many big shots in Hong Kong, and the place isn’t very big. There are no profitable industries left, so it’s not even a chance for people from the mainland to go there. In recent years, it’s been people from there who have been gradually moving to the mainland.
Gu Yin smiled and said, "It's okay, no rush, just follow your steps."
"What should we do with Xia Tian?" It seems there are other people behind Xia Tian. Chu Yan doesn't know anything about Gu Yin, so he has to ask them whether to keep Xia Tian or throw him out. Otherwise, if he does something reckless, it will affect Gu Yin.
Gu Yin thought for a moment, then said, "Don't push him too hard. Let him continue studying in Jiangcheng. Don't let him go back to Beijing. Can you do that?"
Xia Tian was so surprised when he first saw her, but after a day he acted like nothing had happened, implying that she should go back to the village and not come out. So she guessed that the other party must not have told the person behind her about her situation in Jianggao. It was very likely that Xia Tian had "neglected his duty" and dared not let the other party know.
If Xia Tian is forced to return immediately, and the other party goes all out to expose her to the people behind her, she will be in a passive position. So, she should leave him in Jiang City first, so that he feels he still has a chance to complete the mission and keep him hooked. This will save her a lot of trouble!
After Gu Yin said that, Chu Yan understood her idea and nodded: "Okay, I'll call the principal later and ask him to study at No. 4 Middle School."
Gu Yin reached out and patted his shoulder: "Then I'll trouble you, young master of the richest family. I'll treat you to a meal when I have time. The bell has rung, go back to the classroom."
Chu Yan glanced at the delicate, fair hand on his shoulder, smiled, and shook his head: "She's the future richest man."
"Pfft, I misspoke, it should be 'trouble for the future richest man'!" He couldn't help but laugh after saying that.
Chu Yan didn't feel embarrassed at all; he was confident!
