Wu Chenhao waved his hand, "Let's go, I'm going back!"
After saying that, he didn't wait for their reply and went back to the villa without looking back.
Wei Xu watched Wu Chenhao's retreating figure with some displeasure, "He's getting more and more unruly!"
Zhang Chenjun laughed, "He is a bit unruly, but fortunately he is not a scheming person. Our Zhang family can afford to support an idle person. We will find an opportunity to send him away later."
Wei Xu nodded and smiled, "Okay, whatever you say!"
Zhang Chenjun stared at Wei Xu. Just a moment ago, she felt that Wei Xu was exceptionally gentle, and his tone was full of doting. But how could that be?
Zhang Chenjun's mind kept replaying her interactions with Wei Xu. It seemed this man had always been gentle, and he had always maintained a certain distance from her, but...
If Wei Xu knew what Zhang Chenjun was thinking, he would definitely say, "Heh, I just want to find the right opportunity to take you down in one fell swoop!"
Zhang Chenjun rubbed her temples, her slender white fingertips touching the golden ribbon as she was about to pull it open, but Wei Xu stopped her hand, saying, "Let me check it first!"
Zhang Chenjun smiled and handed the gift box to Wei Xu. She didn't react to the touch just now because they had been together for a long time and occasionally had these slightly intimate gestures.
She still remembers Wei Xu teasing her, "What if you have a boyfriend in the future? Wouldn't it be heartbreaking to see your girlfriend spending every day with him, and having to bring a third wheel even on a date?"
Zhang Chenjun thought about it seriously, "Oh yeah, it seems I won't be able to find a partner in the future. In that case, I won't get married."
After saying that, he patted Wei Xu on the shoulder, "You're really my good friend, you've given me a great reason to refuse my parents' pressure to get married!"
Wei Xu looked at the long, slender, white fingers on his shoulder, smiled, and said to Zhang Chenjun in his heart, "You have a second choice, which is to marry me!"
However, the time isn't right yet, so let's just think about it!
Like Wu Chenhao, Wei Xu checked the exterior and found no writing. He smelled it and found no strange odor. He shook it and listened to it, and it seemed to contain only ordinary things.
Wei Xu untied the ribbon, lifted the lid, and inside were some candies and a piece of paper.
Wei Xu took a candy out of the box and put it in his pocket, then handed the gift box back to Zhang Chenjun. "Don't eat it yet. I'll have it tested when we get back to see if there are any problems."
Zhang Chenjun remained noncommittal, then took the printed paper out of the gift box, opened it, and her eyes widened instantly.
"What's wrong?"
Wei Xu looked at Zhang Chenjun's expression and asked in confusion, but he didn't stick his head over. After all, this was a matter of personal privacy, and he knew his limits.
Zhang Chenjun didn't think much of it and handed the spice recipe directly to Wei Xu. After looking at it, Wei Xu frowned and said, "Who gave this to you? There's no signature. Wu Chenhao is really something, he didn't even investigate carefully."
"He probably really thought someone was apologizing to me, and I don't know if he had read the contents beforehand."
"Probably not. When I opened the gift box just now, I noticed that there were no signs of repeated folding on the ribbon. Since the security guard delivered the gift box, let's go over and ask him. Maybe we can find out something."
Zhang Chenjun nodded absentmindedly, and Wei Xu stepped on the gas and drove towards the gate.
On the way, Zhang Chenjun kept thinking about what this person's purpose was. If the spice recipe was real, why didn't he use it to make a profit himself, but instead gave it to her?
Did that person know that he was reborn, or that he knew he was connected to the Qinghe Alliance, so he didn't want to show himself and wanted to offer the spice recipe up by himself?
But what was he after? Not fame or fortune, but for the sake of his country and the world?
Zhang Chenjun laughed. There aren't that many saints in this world. He's probably a reincarnated person who doesn't want to stand out and get exposed. But that person is lucky; he hasn't been caught red-handed yet.
As for herself, she was discovered, so be it. From the moment she was reborn, she never expected to escape the attention of Qinghe Alliance. She was very satisfied with her current life.
The Zhang family villa was only a few minutes' drive from the entrance of the residential area. After Wei Xu parked the car, Zhang Chenjun also snapped out of her thoughts.
The two got out of the car and found the security guard who had delivered the gift box that day.
After questioning, the security guard roughly recounted what happened that night, and then, based on the time he remembered, he found the surveillance video from that night.
In the video, a young and fashionable mother brought her adorable five- or six-year-old child to the entrance of the residential complex. She immediately said she wanted to give Zhang Chenjun a gift, and then the security guard took the gift and said he would deliver it to Zhang's villa.
After seeing the little girl hand the gift box to the security guard, Zhang Chenjun followed her mother to a man about 20 meters away.
The light was dim at night, and the distance was far, so Zhang Chenjun and Wei Xu could only see the figure of a tall man, with curly hair, a floral shirt, sunglasses, and a large gold chain that was still faintly visible.
"Ms. Zhang, is there a problem with the gift box?" The security guard's voice trembled slightly; this was the first time a homeowner had come to him in his two years of work.
Zhang Chenjun smiled and shook her head, "No, I just don't know which friend came to give the gift. I can only try to check the surveillance footage."
The security guard calmed down and said, "Oh, I'm sorry, I'll definitely ask first next time before accepting anything."
After exchanging a few more words with the security guard, Zhang Chenjun said goodbye. Once the car had left the Changyue Villa area, Wei Xu said, "They shouldn't be a couple. That man was pretending."
Zhang Chenjun nodded. "If the video were clearer, I might be able to see through the disguise and recognize the real person."
"There are surveillance cameras along this route. Let's go to the police station and check. Maybe we'll find some clues."
Just as Zhang Chenjun was about to agree, a bolt of lightning struck the sky, followed by a deafening clap of thunder that seemed to shatter her eardrums.
Zhang Chenjun sighed, "It seems that fate doesn't want us to continue this investigation. Alright, let's go back to the guard team!"
Wei Xu was somewhat surprised that Zhang Chenjun would say that, but seeing her insistence, he nodded in agreement.
After leaving this time, I don't know when I'll be able to come back, and I'm not sure if these surveillance videos are still there. It seems that this lead has been lost!
On the way, Zhang Chenjun picked up a candy out of boredom and crumpled it up. After the plastic wrapper was crumpled up, Zhang Chenjun tore it off and stuffed it into her mouth.
Wei Xu noticed Zhang Chenjun playing with the candy wrapper and assumed she was just killing time, but to his surprise, Zhang Chenjun actually ate the candy!
"Didn't we say not to eat it yet, and to wait until we get back and have it tested?"
Wei Xu quickly pulled the car over to the side of the road, unbuckled his seatbelt, and leaned over to brace himself in the passenger seat. "Sweetie, throw up!"
