CHAPTER 408: CHAPTER 409: HAVING MONEY REALLY CAN MAKE ANYTHING POSSIBLE!
Zhou Yunchen smiled. "I sent it over first thing this morning. I heard the Jiang Family Head came too and even held a small celebratory banquet."
Gu Anxi gave a faint smile. "Then we should definitely go and celebrate properly."
Zhou Yunchen was also in Beicheng. Hearing this, he said, "Alright. When will you head over?"
Gu Anxi checked the time. "This afternoon. I’m going back to the hospital to see Dad in a bit."
Hearing this, Zhou Yunchen was slightly moved. "I’d like to visit Mr. Gu too."
Gu Anxi asked where he was. He told her the name of the hotel. Gu Anxi turned the steering wheel with one hand. "Okay, I’ll come pick you up."
Half an hour later, Gu Anxi’s car stopped in front of Qingcheng’s best hotel—the same one Mr. He had stayed in last time. Zhou Yunchen came over as soon as her car stopped.
Unexpectedly, another person was following him: Shen Congwen!
Gu Anxi’s eyes widened as she looked from one to the other.
Zhou Yunchen opened the car door, got in, and smiled. "What’s wrong?"
Gu Anxi couldn’t help but ask, "Why are you two together?"
Shen Congwen turned his face to look out the car window. "Mr. Gu asked me to come to Qingcheng to take a look."
Gu Anxi chuckled. "It seems he still values you highly."
Shen Congwen looked somewhat surprised and glanced at Zhou Yunchen beside him.
Gu Anxi said no more and drove directly to Yunxi Hospital. When they got out of the car, Zhou Yunchen’s steps were a bit unsteady...
Gu Anxi shook her head and said to Shen Congwen, "That’s my Senior Brother for you. So imposing when he’s out and about, but he just wilts when he sees my dad."
Shen Congwen lowered his gaze. "It must be deep respect and affection. Besides, he hasn’t seen Mr. Gu in a long time."
Gu Anxi smiled and was quite polite to Shen Congwen. However, the barrage of questions during the short drive truly made Shen Congwen feel a bit overwhelmed; he constantly felt that Gu Anxi was hinting at something!
When they arrived at the VIP ward, Zhou Yunchen was already there, half-squatting in front of the hospital bed. Gu Yuntian was quite alert, already sitting up slightly against the headboard, speaking softly with Zhou Yunchen—he looked like he was patiently guiding him.
Deep respect and affection were written all over Zhou Yunchen’s face.
Shen Congwen had never seen this side of Zhou Yunchen. The Zhou Yunchen he knew was always particularly wicked, extremely wicked...
Shen Congwen’s gaze was fixed on him, almost unable to look away.
After a long moment, Gu Yuntian’s gaze fell on Shen Congwen. Seeing this, Zhou Yunchen quickly said, "This is my university classmate, Shen Congwen."
Gu Yuntian remained seated, quietly observing him. Shen Congwen did the same.
He looked at this man, to whom Zhou Yunchen owed such a debt of gratitude for recognizing his worth, and also quietly squatted down.
Gu Yuntian observed him carefully, then smiled at Zhou Yunchen. "This young man, I think he’s more handsome than you."
Zhou Yunchen chuckled. "That’s true! Back in university, many foreign girls used to chase after him."
Shen Congwen was extremely embarrassed. "Zhou Yunchen!"
Zhou Yunchen tilted his head. "Well, am I wrong?"
Shen Congwen fell silent, his ears turning a little red.
Gu Yuntian looked at them and smiled faintly. "Go on and attend to your business. I’m a bit tired."
Wang Keru immediately helped him lie down, and Gu Yuntian closed his eyes to rest.
Gu Anxi slipped on a white coat and came over to give him a routine check-up. While examining him, she said softly, "Dad, Uncle Xiao said your body will need at least six months to recover. You should stay in the hospital for the first three months; don’t be in a hurry to go home."
Hearing his youngest daughter say this, Gu Yuntian hummed in agreement, feeling an indescribable sense of comfort.
After Gu Anxi finished the check-up, she quietly discussed some matters with Wang Keru.
She also felt for her mother, who had been staying at the hospital to accompany her father ever since the surgery. Granny Chen had advised her against it, but Wang Keru wouldn’t listen. Fortunately, this was a VIP ward with a small bedroom next door, so Gu Anxi let her be.
Wang Keru knew Gu Anxi had important things to do, so she said softly, "I’m here with your dad. Go and take care of your business."
Gu Anxi nodded with a smile. "Okay. When Dad wakes up, tell him the Bishui Yuntian project has been restarted. The ribbon-cutting ceremony is today. When he’s awake, show him the video."
Wang Keru was stunned. "Anxi?"
"I decided long ago. Once Dad woke up, I would restart Bishui Yuntian," Gu Anxi said nonchalantly.
Wang Keru lowered her head, feeling somewhat ashamed. Anxi has arranged everything so perfectly; I feel so useless!
Granny Chen, with her worldly wisdom, glanced at her. "Took you long enough to realize!"
Gu Anxi looked at the two of them. Are they at it again?
She just smiled, took off her white coat, and walked out of the ward. Zhou Yunchen immediately followed her. "President Gu, I didn’t know anything about the Bishui Yuntian matter!"
"That’s right, it’s a surprise!" Gu Anxi replied matter-of-factly. "Just like when Uncle Xiao suddenly came to do the surgery and didn’t tell me either."
Zhou Yunchen was stunned. "So, the decision about Bishui Yuntian was only made in the last couple of days?"
"Yes," Gu Anxi said without batting an eye.
Zhou Yunchen suddenly felt—Having money really does let you do whatever you want!
Gu Anxi took him to Bishui Yuntian, and Shen Congwen went along too. Gu Anxi teased lightly, "Vice President Shen, if you keep following us like this, won’t it cause a misunderstanding with *your* Mr. Gu?"
She paused, then continued, "Or perhaps *that* Mr. Gu has given you some special tasks?"
Shen Congwen felt a bit overwhelmed. He realized that Gu Anxi and Zhou Yunchen sometimes operated on the same wavelength, probably because they grew up together and were both close to Gu Yuntian.
At this moment, Shen Congwen felt a surge of curiosity about Gu Yuntian. What kind of man could raise individuals like Gu Anxi and Zhou Yunchen?
Lost in these thoughts, the car arrived at Bishui Yuntian.
The sports car, worth over ten million, pulled up. Two rows of hostesses greeted in unison, "Good day, President Gu! Good day, President Zhou!"
Gu Anxi got out of the car, calm and composed, as did Zhou Yunchen.
Just then, the manager of the venue hurried over. "President Gu, you’re finally here! The auspicious time is almost upon us."
He pointed to one side, where a path decorated with colorful ribbons and balloons had already been prepared.
Gu Anxi looked at Zhou Yunchen and Shen Congwen. "Let’s go together!"
Shen Congwen felt like an outsider and thought it inappropriate to stand with them, but Zhou Yunchen pulled him over.
The three of them stood in a line—the men handsome, the woman beautiful. It was an incredibly striking scene.
Amidst the deafening sound of firecrackers, Gu Anxi, Zhou Yunchen, and Shen Congwen cut the ribbon in unison. The manager of Bishui Yuntian had also arranged numerous song and dance performances, invited some second and third-tier celebrities to liven things up, and even organized a prize draw.
With such grand promotion, all the villas at Bishui Yuntian sold out in a single morning. Plans were also announced for over a dozen additional Western-style houses and high-rise buildings... The crowd of eager buyers was immense.
After the excitement here died down, Gu Anxi looked at Shen Congwen. "Vice President Shen, now that you’ve graced our event, it’s time we returned the favor and supported yours."
Shen Congwen groaned internally. I’ve fallen for Gu Anxi’s scheme again!
By publicly cutting the ribbon with Gu Anxi like this, if things went smoothly with the Jiang Family, it would be fine. But if they didn’t, he, Shen Congwen, would be the first to be sacrificed!
