CHAPTER 35: CHAPTER 35: SHE SHOULD BUY A HOUSE

EDITOR: ENDLESSFANTASY TRANSLATION

After seeing off Jiang Ruhai, Gu Zheng returned upstairs to Gu Wanwan’s room.

Seeing that she was already awake, he whispered, "Is there anywhere else you’re not feeling well?"

Gu Wanwan turned her head, and two lines of silent tears fell: "Dad, I’m sorry... it’s all my fault. If I die, all of this will be over..."

Gu Zheng sighed at the bedside, "For someone like Ye Mingchen, you’re willing to throw away your life?"

There are so many good men in the world, why be so determined to marry into the Ye Family?

Gu Wanwan’s face was pale, and she bit her lip: "Dad, I really like him. I’m sincere, and Mingchen is too. I have no face to ask you to allow us to be together, you..."

Gu Wanwan seemed unable to continue, and she looked extremely helpless.

Perhaps thinking back on Gu Wanwan’s sweet nature, and the constant contrast with Gu Heng, that unworthy son, Gu Zheng’s heart suddenly softened: "Don’t do anything foolish anymore, I’ll consider the investment matter."

Gu Wanwan was stunned, and two more lines of tears rolled down her face: "Dad!"

Gu Zheng waved his hand and turned to leave.

Fifty million is not a small amount, and if it’s lost, it won’t be a joke.

However, comparing the fifty million to his daughter’s life, naturally, it doesn’t outweigh human life.

At dawn the next day, Gu Ningyue went downstairs with dark circles under her eyes.

"Did you not sleep well?" Ling Tianyou put down his teacup and asked.

Gu Ningyue nodded helplessly, having spent the entire night haunted by nightmares, even bringing the terrifying things from a past life into her dreams, leaving her drenched in cold sweat.

"By the way, do you have Mr. Chen’s contact information? Can you give it to me?" Gu Ningyue pulled out a chair and sat opposite Ling Tianyou: "I want to find an opportunity to visit Mr. Chen."

Ling Tianyou was a bit surprised, "Visit Mr. Chen? Why?"

Gu Ningyue was a bit off at the teahouse yesterday, and now she’s asking for Mr. Chen’s number. What is Gu Ningyue planning to do?

Gu Ningyue quickly glanced around and made a perfunctory reply: "Mr. Chen mentioned he has some nice tea at home, and I’m quite interested in that!"

"You enjoy tea tasting?" Ling Tianyou’s smile carried a trace of sarcasm.

Not sure who yesterday was drinking Biluochun as if it were plain water.

Gu Ningyue maintained her composure and shamelessly nodded, "Suddenly got interested, is that not okay?"

"Okay!" Ling Tianyou found Mr. Chen’s phone number in his mobile and sent it to Gu Ningyue: "Mr. Chen doesn’t like people who talk too much, don’t anger Mr. Chen. If the deal falls through, I’ll hold you accountable!"

"Don’t worry, I’m just having tea, won’t upset Mr. Chen." Gu Ningyue said, thoughtfully. Clearly, she’s not sure herself.

Ling Tianyou didn’t say more, and he left after breakfast, "The company is busy today, I’ll come back in the evening. If you want to eat something, just tell Aunt Zhang."

"Hmm, alright!" Gu Ningyue replied while chewing on her bread, but her eyes were glued to her phone, not even looking at him.

Ling Tianyou stood in place, "Won’t you see me off?"

Gu Ningyue finally lifted her head with the bread in her mouth, "Ah, yeah, see you off, let’s go!"

Seeing her distracted appearance, Ling Tianyou sighed and turned around: "Forget it, you continue eating!"

Since yesterday, Gu Ningyue has been acting off, what happened during this time?

Gu Ningyue knew she had upset the big shot, so she immediately pulled out her chair and chased after him, "Won’t you come back for lunch?"

Ling Tianyou nodded, too lazy to engage in her pointless chat.

Watching him leave the villa and get into the car, Gu Ningyue waved her hand: "Come back early!"

Ling Tianyou: "..." So what is up with his fiancée?

Seeing the car drive out of the gate, Gu Ningyue turned back into the house to continue eating.

"Ning Yue, did you hear? Chen Rui is coming back to the country." Shen Hanyin suddenly sent a WeChat message.

Gu Ningyue searched through the original owner’s memory for this name, Chen Rui, seemed to be Ling Tianyou’s childhood friend.

The rumor was she was A City’s top beauty, practically a perfect ten, and appeared on TV a long time ago.

You could say she’s every man’s dream girl.

"No, what happened?"

Shen Hanyin replied, "I heard Ling Tianyou hasn’t had a girlfriend or gotten married, seems like a big part of the reason is her."

Gu Ningyue felt inexplicably uncomfortable, "Really! Why is she suddenly returning to the country?"

"Not sure, but probably because she heard Ling Tianyou is getting married, so..."

Looking at Shen Hanyin’s series of suggestive exclamation marks, Gu Ningyue felt slightly more uneasy: "Whatever happens, I’ll deal with it accordingly, anyway, Ling Tianyou and I haven’t gotten the certificate."

If Chen Rui is really coming back for Ling Tianyou, or if Ling Tianyou still has feelings for Chen Rui, she knows that no matter how capable she is, it won’t be enough.

Although lacking in relationship experience, she knew forcing a relationship wouldn’t lead to happiness.

However, the news from Shen Hanyin today was a reminder; she needed to plan ahead.

The place she currently lives in, and the card she has were all given by Ling Tianyou.

If one day he wants to take these back, she’ll be left on the streets.

Thinking of this, Gu Ningyue realized—she should buy a house!

Once resolved, she flipped open the house selling app on her phone and started browsing property listings.

Though she doesn’t like noise, without Ling Tianyou in the future, she would certainly need to find a job.

If that’s the case, the location can’t be too remote but also not too central.

With these requirements, her choices became limited.

However, as she browsed, Gu Ningyue suddenly smacked her forehead, that’s right! Ling Tianyou’s card previously had ten million!

Why not buy two?

"Aunt Zhang, I’m going out for a stroll, will be back around noon."

After greeting Aunt Zhang, Gu Ningyue went upstairs to pack her household registration and ID card and then drove away.

Suddenly, she felt grateful for having listened to Song Yunjin’s suggestion to separate her household registration earlier, making these matters much easier.

The entire morning, Gu Ningyue viewed five or six places and finally settled on a two-story, independent property of two hundred square meters, paid in full.

The community had just been completed recently, and not many people had moved in, while this property was oddly cheap.

For her, it was crucial to acquire it quickly.

After swiping the card and completing the formalities, Ling Tianyou’s phone suddenly received a message: "XX card with tail number expenditure of three million..."

Three million? Ling Tianyou frowned at his phone and then placed it aside: "The new project in collaboration with Mr. Chen’s company will launch soon, so I need..."

An hour later, Ling Tianyou left the meeting room and waved to the assistant: "Check this card number’s bank transactions and report back to me as soon as possible!"

The assistant acknowledged and turned to leave.
