The contents of the document folder were not about Zhang Bo, but about Wang Lin.
Zhou Chunhua never expected that the seemingly refined middle-aged man was actually a criminal.
When she looked at her daughter, she clenched her fists.
When I put down the documents, a bowl of noodles appeared in front of me.
The noodles were cooked by Gu Yao, and there was an egg poached in them.
"Are you busy at noon?" Gu Yao asked.
Zhou Chunhua shook her head truthfully and said, "It's nothing."
"Then come with me to meet someone. We'll need his help with this."
"OK."
Let alone meeting people, she wouldn't hesitate to go through fire and water for this matter.
"There's something else I'd like to discuss with you."
She looked up at Gu Yao.
"Here's the thing, could I stay here for a while? I don't mean to stay for free, I'll pay the rent as it is."
"Why?" Zhou Chunhua asked, looking bewildered.
How could someone who buys a villa on a whim not have a place to live?
Gu Yao didn't say anything, but looked troubled.
"Um... I'll ask Nana later. If he has no objections, you can stay in any of the guest rooms."
Since Gu Yao didn't want to talk about it, he must have had reasons why it was inconvenient for him to say.
In her opinion, Gu Yao must have encountered some difficulties to ask for such a request.
Gu Yao helped her from beginning to end, so how could she not lend a hand when Gu Yao needed help?
The reason I need to discuss it with Nana is that the house originally belonged to Nana; I was just borrowing it and had no say in the matter.
As soon as she finished speaking, Juliana came out of the bedroom yawning.
When Juliana saw Gu Yao, her dazed eyes cleared instantly.
After exchanging greetings, Zhou Chunhua told Gu Yao about his desire to stay at her place.
“Sure! The guest room is empty anyway, so Attorney Gu can stay as long as she wants. And don’t bring any stuff, everything is provided in the guest room. Just bring your bag.”
Zhou Chunhua really didn't expect that Zhu Lina would agree so readily.
After all, Juliana has disliked men the most since she was a child.
She didn't know why, but Juliana just couldn't stand men.
At first, she was worried that Nana was having trouble refusing Gu Yao's request to stay because of her.
Later, seeing the two chatting naturally, she gave up the idea.
Because Nana didn't seem to reject Gu Yao.
So... a pretty face will always be a plus, no matter where you go.
Even with Juliana, this was no exception.
After breakfast, Gu Yao went back to get his bag and prepared to check in.
She and Nana then tidied up the guest room.
An hour later, Gu Yao returned with his bag.
Nana took his fingerprints.
"From today onwards, the three of us are officially roommates."
Gu Yao smiled politely and said, "I'll be troubling you from now on."
"No trouble at all!" Zhu Lina turned to Zhou Chunhua and winked, but said, "I suddenly remembered I have something to do at the company, so I'll go there first."
After saying that, she went straight to the bedroom, changed her clothes and grabbed her bag in one go.
She even did her makeup while walking.
She looked so impatient, as if someone at home was chasing her away.
As usual, Zhou Chunhua escorted Zhu Lina to the elevator.
As soon as she stepped out of the house, Juliana suddenly pulled her to her side.
"Hana, you'd better work hard this time!"
"What are you striving for?"
"Gu Yao! Such a good man, handsome and rich, much better than that bastard Liao Nanxing! Remember, proximity makes the best of luck! Go for it, sister!"
After saying that, the elevator doors closed.
Zhou Chunhua looked at the reflection on the closed elevator door, feeling both amused and exasperated.
After her divorce from Liao Nanxing, all she wanted was to find Nini; she didn't want anything else.
...
Grand Hyatt.
After Gu Yao introduced the person in front of her, Zhou Chunhua extended her hand with neither humility nor arrogance: "Hello."
Tai'an reached out and shook hands with Zhou Chunhua, his expression gradually changing from surprise to joy, and he even held her firmly for a few minutes.
Throughout the meal, Tai'an was exceptionally polite and attentive to her.
This feeling is like... a younger brother's feelings for his newlywed sister-in-law.
This made Zhou Chunhua feel quite embarrassed.
Before they had even finished their meal, Tai'an had already started arranging activities for the afternoon and evening.
What's with having afternoon tea and then another cup in the evening?
Just as she was wondering how to decline Tai'an's offer, her phone rang.
To Zhou Chunhua's surprise, it was Zhang Bo who called.
He said he had something to discuss with her and specifically instructed her to bring Gu Yao along.
Thanks to Zhang Bo's phone call, she didn't have to rack her brains to find an excuse to decline Tai'an's kindness.
I don't know if Gu Yao noticed her discomfort.
Anyway, as soon as she hung up the phone, Gu Yao called her and left.
On the way, Zhou Chunhua apologized, feeling embarrassed.
Gu Yao simply replied with a nonchalant "It's nothing."
...
When Zhou Chunhua arrived at the detention center, she learned that Zhang Bo had confessed to all the shady things he had done in the past.
Zhang Bo, dressed in work clothes, had shaved his head.
In just two or three days, she looked like she had aged more than ten years.
"Xiao Zhou, Attorney Gu, I want to know how Xiao Nuan is doing now?"
Zhang Bo is a bad person, but in his role as a father, he still evoked empathy from Zhou Chunhua.
His concern and love for Zhang Xiaonuan were obvious to everyone.
