"Since you're here, why didn't you knock?" Gu Zheng's voice suddenly rang out.
There were about twenty steps from the roadside to the house gate. Gu Zheng stood at the top of the steps, his arms folded, looking down at her.
Gu Fanyan tried her best to calm herself down. "This is my first time here, so I'm not very familiar with the area yet. I'm not sure if you live here."
Gu Zheng turned and went inside.
Gu Fanyan walked up the steps and followed her inside.
The interior decoration is not luxurious, but it is very unique, exuding a simple and cool personal style.
Like Lin Guangchen.
He is also like Gu Zheng.
Gu Fanyan had no prejudice against their relationship, but it was another matter if they wanted to be her enemies.
“Lin Guangchen called me and said he had confessed to his parents,” she said bluntly. “So, I can’t threaten you with the video from last night.”
Gu Zheng sneered contemptuously: "Your behavior yesterday was indeed very stupid. As the eldest daughter of the Gu family, I thought you could come up with some more ingenious tricks."
Gu Fanyan put down the file bag in her hand: "Take a look, here's what you wanted."
Gu Zheng took out the documents inside and chuckled: "Share transfer agreement, transferor: Gu Fanyan."
“I remember you told me not long ago that your shares wouldn’t be so easy to transfer, right?”
Gu Fanyan replied calmly, "I don't want Lin Zhibai to stay inside for even a second longer. If this problem can be solved with money, why wouldn't I?"
Gu Zheng was slightly taken aback, his sneer deepening: "Oh, Miss never treats money like money, but do you know exactly how much these shares of yours are worth?"
Gu Fanyan scoffed: "I haven't calculated it. Since you want it so badly, you should do the math."
She stepped onto the balcony at the corner of the house and said, "I'm getting some fresh air outside. Call me when you've figured it out."
This transfer agreement is quite thick, over thirty pages long, and not a single clause is superfluous.
If Gu Zheng wanted to see it clearly, it would take him at least an hour.
There was no sound from inside the room.
Gu Fanyan went around the terrace to the other side of the house, came to the window of Gu Zheng's study, and climbed in without thinking.
The assistants had already surveyed the terrain.
The route had been planned long ago.
The assistants were just worried that Gu Fanyan wouldn't be able to climb into the study because she was scared, nervous, or didn't have enough strength.
It turned out she could do it.
As long as she thought about how it was for Lin Zhibai, she could manage.
After entering the study, she quickly went to the bookshelf, looking for where the other half of the financial documents might be kept.
She wasn't alone in her search; the buttons on her clothes had been modified by her assistant—they were actually pinhole cameras.
She has tiny earbuds, about the size of a grain of rice, in her ears so she can communicate with her assistants at any time.
"Miss," the assistant's voice suddenly came, "is there a safe under the bookshelf?"
Gu Fanyan immediately opened the cabinet door at the bottom of the bookcase, and sure enough, a safe about half her height appeared before her eyes.
What she's looking for is most likely in the safe.
A surge of joy filled her heart, but then her assistant's voice came again, "Miss, the item is definitely not in the safe; we can rule that out."
Gu Fanyan was taken aback. She had been worried that the safe would require a password to open, but it seemed that her worries were unnecessary.
The assistant continued, "The most conspicuous places are often the most hidden places, Miss. Do you see the shelf over there where the books and magazines are?"
Gu Fanyan saw it through the glass cabinet door.
Inside was a very high empty space, filled with all sorts of books and magazines, and also containing many newspapers.
Gu Fanyan's sixth sense was buzzing.
She immediately opened the cabinet door and flipped through the books one by one. Suddenly, a few lines of numbers flashed before her eyes...
"Gu Fanyan?" Gu Zheng's voice came from the living room.
Her heart skipped a beat, thinking, "He finished reading that thick document so quickly?"
"Gu Fanyan?" Gu Zheng called out again.
Suddenly, as if realizing something, he strode quickly toward the study.
Gu Fanyan couldn't help but clench her hands.
Climbing out of the window is no longer an option.
She didn't want to look so pathetic.
Why don't we just stand here and wait for him to come in?
He could never have imagined that she already had some of the evidence, and that she was looking for the other part.
All she had to do was lie and say she was looking for something else.
His footsteps drew closer, and he was about to reach the study door.
"Gu Zheng!" A woman's voice rang out again in the living room.
Gu Fanyan was slightly taken aback; the voice sounded like Sheng Xin's.
Gu Zheng stopped in his tracks.
He turned and walked back to the living room, looking at Sheng Xin, this uninvited guest, "It's you? What are you doing here?"
Sheng Xin stood at the door: "Gu Zheng, you want to harm Lin Zhibai? Aren't you overestimating yourself?"
Gu Fanyan immediately realized what was happening and took out the item she had just found from the pile of magazines and books.
It's a financial statement!
It really is a financial statement!
She immediately pulled them all out and hid them inside her clothes.
Suddenly, Sheng Xin's cold laugh echoed from the living room: "Have you ever considered that if something happened to me at your doorstep today, you wouldn't be able to escape responsibility!"
Immediately afterwards, a series of hurried footsteps could be heard heading out.
Gu Zheng's curses rang out: "Madman!"
Then came another burst of hurried footsteps heading out.
"Ah!" Sheng Xin screamed.
Gu Fanyan trembled and hurriedly chased after him from the study.
She ran out into the living room and was immediately stunned.
Sheng Xin fell at the bottom of the steps.
Sheng Xin rolled down from the top of the steps.
At this moment, Sheng Xin lay on the ground, clutching her stomach in pain.
Gu Fanyan rushed to Sheng Xin's side, steadied her, and yelled at Gu Zheng beside her, "What have you done! What have you done to her!"
Gu Zheng remained silent, unsure how to handle the situation.
"Screech!" Suddenly, a sports car braked sharply to a stop on the side of the road, and a person quickly jumped out of the car.
Gu Fanyan was taken aback for a moment: "Lin Zhibai!"
Lin Zhibai ran over, his worried gaze falling on Gu Fanyan's face: "Sister Fanyan, are you alright!"
Gu Fanyan shook her head, "You should take a look at her!"
Lin Zhibai asked in confusion, "Sheng Xin?"
Gu Fanyan urged, "She just fell down the steps, I don't know if the child is alright! Take her to the hospital quickly!"
Lin Zhibai scooped up Sheng Xin in his arms and ran towards the sports car.
Gu Fanyan's hands suddenly felt empty, and she was stunned for a moment. In that instant, she felt a void in her heart as well.
But she quickly came to her senses, stood up and angrily rebuked Gu Zheng: "You'd better pray that she and the baby in her belly are alright!"
"Besides, let me tell you, the child in her belly isn't Lin Zhibai's. Pushing her down the steps won't get you any revenge on Lin Zhibai!"
After saying that, she turned around and got into the car.
The sports car sped out of the residential area.
Gu Zheng stood there for a while, somewhat bewildered.
Is it true that he pushed Sheng Xin down the steps?
But why did he promote Shengxin?
He looked up again and glanced at the security camera outside.
The monitoring equipment is functioning normally.
He breathed a sigh of relief, but before he could fully relax, he suddenly realized something.
He turned and went inside, and a moment later he rushed out, his face full of anger.
