Chapter 36.4

Gu Yanshu said calmly, “Just tell me.”

“Doesn’t our contract expire in a few days? I went to the company today to discuss the handover of work, and I saw a woman in President Ye’s office. She seemed to be especially close to him, and even dared to sit in President Ye’s office chair casually.”

“So?”

It would be abnormal if there weren’t many women who were close to a young, rich, handsome, and single president like Ye Leng. Gu Yanshu didn’t know why Fang Yuan wanted to tell him that. 

Fang Yuan, who was on the other end of the phone, paused and added, “That woman looks very similar to the woman who was photographed with Shen Jue on the day of your concert. Even though the photo was a bit blurry, the woman’s figure and temperament seems the same. There is an 80% chance that they are the same person. So…”

There might be some kind of relationship between Shen Jue and Ye Leng?

Because if his memory served him right, back then, Shen Jue clarified that the woman was his sister. Even though the Shen family didn’t have a young lady, Gu Yanshu had never doubted Shen Jue’s words.

And if that woman was really Shen Jue’s sister, and coincidentally had such a close relationship with Ye Leng, then Shen Jue and Ye Leng definitely weren’t just business partners.

It was as if he was the only one who really cared about Shen Jue.

It was as if every time Shen Jue said those ambiguous teasing words, Gu Yanshu was the only one whose heart would beat faster.

Gu Yanshu hated this feeling.

Why did Shen Jue have the final say in everything?

There was a long silence.

Fang Yuan called out tentatively, “Xiao Shu?”

“Hmm? “Oh.” Gu Yanshu snapped out of his daze. “Got it.”

“It’s good that you know…” Fang Yuan didn’t know what to say for a moment. After all, it wasn’t good for him to interfere in this matter. After hesitating for a long time, he changed the topic. “How’s your cold?”

“I’m fine,” Gu Yanshu replied absently.

“Do you still have a lot of money on you?”

“Enough to survive.”

“Do you have enough food to eat?”

“Yes…”

Before he finished speaking, Sheng Ping suddenly exclaimed, “Ahhh! There’s no more rice in the kitchen! We’re out of food!”

The voice was deafening. Fang Yuan could feel the sorrow in Sheng Ping’s tone through the 6G network.

He said worriedly, “Is there nothing left to eat?”

“I think so.”

“The big bag of rice I gave you is gone too?”

“What big bag of rice that you gave…”

Gu Yanshu remembered that prior to the recording, Fang Yuan had indeed filled a large bag of Dongbei rice for him. At that time, he even thought that Fang Yuan was crazy.

So, he hung up the call and went upstairs.

He opened the cabinet and dragged out his suitcase. Sure enough, there was a bag of Dongbei rice that had been opened and retied inside.

He heaved a sigh of relief. At least they would have rice for lunch. He just didn’t know if the rice was damp.

He undid the seal and reached out to feel the rice, but his fingertips suddenly touched something very hard.

He frowned slightly, and took it out to take a look.

It was the phone that Fang Yuan had put into the bag, after the phone dropped in the bathroom previously.

It had been there for a full ten days. He wondered if Fang Yuan’s unorthodox method would work.

Gu Yanshu pressed the power button without much hope, but the screen really lit up.

It seemed that Fang Yuan wasn’t completely useless.

After all, there might be something on the phone that could prove what he did after getting drunk that night. Otherwise, why would he appear in the bathroom for no reason?

Thinking of this, Gu Yanshu unlocked the phone.

Then, the moment he saw the screen clearly, the blood at his fingertips stopped flowing.
