He hadn’t anticipated this point.
"I will definitely clear up this case from back then. Mr. Wu, sorry to disturb you, but if you have any information from that ti, could you share so with us."
"Rest assured, whatever I know, I will definitely tell you. As for the Wuke Mountain Base, Master Gu, you need to keep that confidential. Although things aren’t like they were back then, there are certainly still so disruptors; safety first."
The situation back then was much more complicated than it is now; enemies were everywhere, and we had to be constantly vigilant against them.
Gu Yecheng walked out from Wu Wei’s place with a wry smile.
This case wasn’t simple at all; he now felt as though he was beginning to see the light of day through the fog.
Gu Yecheng glanced at the sky outside and said to Ye Fei: "Let’s go ho first."
He hadn’t returned ho for several days, imrsed in collecting information about the Wuke Mountain Base and investigating Wu Wei’s whereabouts.
"At this hour, Young Madam should be finishing class soon." Ye Fei checked the ti.
Gu Yecheng listened to Ye Fei and laughed, "You are getting more competent, let’s head to the school to pick her up."
Ye Fei laughed as well, "After being by your side for years, I’ve learned a few things about reading the situation."
"You’re not too young yourself; if you et a suitable girl, feel free to let know."
"There’s no rush for that," Ye Fei blushed.
The car stopped at the entrance of Dihua Affiliated High School; being an army green SUV, it was quite conspicuous.
Gu Yecheng rolled down the car window, watching the entrance of the school.
Ensuring that his wife would see him imdiately upon coming out, as he would too.
Xiaofeng walked out with several books in hand, together with Xiaonian, Shuiling, and Jin Qingqing, chatting and laughing.
"Sis, isn’t that my brother-in-law’s car?" Xiaonian’s sharp eyes caught the conspicuous SUV and the distinguished-looking man inside at once.
Xiaofeng glanced over and felt her ears heating up, "Why is he here?"
"Isn’t it obvious? He’s here to pick you up," Shuiling teased.
"Sister, is that brother-in-law? Brother-in-law is handso, even more so than Qiao Zhenfeng; my, sister, you really are a life winner, with such a handso husband and having given birth to boy and girl twins, if you attend Dibei or Dihua University, how many won would be envious to death,"
Is this the kind of life written in novels?
Listening to them, Xiaofeng smiled lightly, "You shouldn’t just pick a good-looking husband, but soone good to you. I’ll go over first, see you tomorrow."
"See you tomorrow." Xiaonian and Shuiling, naturally understanding not to disturb, waved at Yecheng at the school gate, then headed back themselves.
As his wife approached, Gu Yecheng got off the car to open the door for her.
Wang Jieyu and Liu Shuang ca out, imdiately noticing the pleasing scene.
"Jieyu, is that her husband, Young Master of the Gu Family?" Liu Shuang admired Gu Yecheng’s back, eyes bright, such a handso and stylish man.
Wang Jieyu nodded, she had seen Gu Yecheng before, "Yes."
"Indeed, heaven is unfair, what does that Su Xiaofeng have for the heavens to arrange such a perfect husband for her?" Liu Shuang pouted.
"Who knows, maybe she was just born lucky."
"Young Master Gu too, with such a good background, why like a country girl?"
"Liu Shuang, mind your words," Xiaonian turned back suddenly upon hearing Liu Shuang, "My sister is the Young Lady of the Quan Family, even if she grew up in the countryside, that doesn’t change the fact she is our Young Lady of the Quan Family. That status, honestly, few in the Imperial Capital can match; whether you accept it or not."
Liu Shuang’s background wasn’t impressive, being rely the child of a minor official, hence why she ingratiated herself with Wang Jieyu.
...
Xiaofeng got in the car as Gu Yecheng followed.
"What brings you to pick up today?" Xiaofeng put her books away and leaned her head against Gu Yecheng’s chest.
They hadn’t seen each other for so days.
"I intended to head straight ho, but rembering your classes end around this ti, I ca to pick you up. You know, when you ca out of the school, I almost couldn’t spot you; among a bunch of high schoolers, you hardly stood out."
"Do I look like a minor, making you feel you acted too early?" Xiaofeng blinked.
Gu Yecheng teased, "Exactly, always feel like the old bull enjoying young grass, acted too soon."
"That’s your admission of being the old bull, nothing to do with ."
Gu Yecheng laughed.
The couple chatted happily as they headed ho.
After dinner, Gu Yecheng went to Elder Gu’s study, discussing the person called Ruan Yu.
Ruan Yu was of the sa level as Bai Liuniang, previously making significant contributions to the governnt; however, in retirent, she followed her son abroad, and she hadn’t returned for several years.
"Is that what they said to you?" Elder Gu listened to Yecheng, frowning.
Yecheng nodded, "I saw the docunt, it doesn’t appear fake, but since Elder Ruan is not in the country, no one else seems to know about this matter."
"I will contact Ruan Yu, you should ask your father to check the archives, see if a base was established in Wuke Mountain back then. I certainly haven’t heard of it."
"Sounds like you’re suggesting the docunt might be fake."
"The possibility isn’t ruled out. Since they dare to bring up Ruan Yu’s na, they must feel secure that we can’t contact her or she’s no longer alive. Nonetheless, you must keep an eye on Wu Wei, don’t let him escape."
In such confidential matters, perhaps others might not know, but Bai Liuniang certainly would.
Moreover, Ruan Yu went abroad years ago, if a base existed with her in charge, the governnt wouldn’t have allowed her to leave the country.
Listening to his grandfather, Gu Yecheng felt he understood the situation: "I get it, he’s staging an illusion out of nothing, almost fooled ."
"As long as you’re aware. Since they dare to use Ruan Yu, it ans they hold leverage against her, allowing them to manipulate her."
"This possibility isn’t ruled out."
Gu Yecheng returned to the bedroom, Xiaofeng had already showered.
The factory in Chengbei sent over so docunts during the day; she was working overti to handle them.
The factory in Chengbei had now stabilized, continuing to produce the original food products while needing to develop new products.
New products are essential for a factory’s vitality.
Looking at his wife hard at work, Gu Yecheng felt a bit helpless; he took a quick shower then approached, leaning his head against Xiaofeng’s chest, "Darling, is the docunt you’re holding more attractive, or is it ?"
Hearing this, Xiaofeng felt amused, "I’m just taking so ti to review as I wasn’t ho during the day."
"I haven’t been ho for several days," Gu Yecheng said, his hands becoming restless.
Xiaofeng rolled her eyes, indeed, this man constantly thought of that one thing; before she could respond, the docunt was already out of her hands.
A certain man had already moved in.
The night was deep, only the water cup on the bedside table swayed back and forth.
After a while, the water in the cup finally returned to calm, standing quietly.
Xiaofeng sat up with a flushed face, glaring at Gu Yecheng, "Give a glass of water, I’m dying of thirst."
Gu Yecheng handed over the water cup to Xiaofeng, watching her water-soft lips taking a sip, his lips curled upwards.
