CHAPTER 1324: CHAPTER 1324: IS THIRD SISTER A GIRL OR A BOY?

Gu Huaijin listened, remained silent for a few seconds, then suddenly said to Gu Zhiqi, "Is money really that tight?"

Gu Zhiqi looked up at Gu Huaijin, without speaking, but her eyes clearly spelled out the words "money is tight."

Gu Huaijin slightly twitched the corner of his mouth, and said earnestly to Gu Zhiqi, "You’re only seventeen, you should be focusing on your studies. If you need money, you can ask us. There’s no need to work so hard."

Upon hearing this, Gu Zhiqi paused, and after a few seconds, said to Gu Huaijin, somewhat insincerely, "I enjoy the process of making money."

She did enjoy the process of making money, but if she could get the money effortlessly, of course, she would like that more.

However, the money needed for Chubby Chiu’s upgrade was not something anyone could provide all at once.

She feared that if she spoke up, not only Gu Huaijin, but the entire Gu Family might go bankrupt.

Gu Huaijin: "..."

Forget it.

Gu Huaijin fell into a long silence.

While he was silent, Gu Zhiqi suddenly remembered something and called out to him, "Big brother."

Gu Huaijin looked up at Gu Zhiqi, "Yes?"

Gu Zhiqi: "Is Third Sister a girl or a boy?"

When Gu Huaijin heard this, he was taken aback, fell silent for a long time, then asked Gu Zhiqi, "Why are you suddenly asking about this?"

Gu Zhiqi: "I heard him speak in a boy’s voice."

"Everyone calls her Third Sister, she must be a girl," Gu Huaijin said, lowering his eyes slightly, seemingly not entirely focused.

Gu Zhiqi listened, then asked, "Do you know someone named Feng Qi?"

Gu Huaijin suddenly looked up at Gu Zhiqi, "How... did you find out about this name?"

"I met someone in the Imperial Capital today. He said his name is Feng Qi, and he’s Third Sister’s boyfriend," Gu Zhiqi said, staring fixedly at Gu Huaijin, "Do you know him, big brother?"

Gu Huaijin’s fingers beside him curled slightly, after several seconds abruptly looked away, and only after a long while did he say, "I don’t know."

Seeing his expression, Gu Zhiqi knew he was lying.

Seeing that Gu Huaijin seemed unwilling to talk, Gu Zhiqi didn’t press further and buried her head in her meal.

Gu Huaijin, however, didn’t pick up his chopsticks for a long time. After a while, he looked at Gu Zhiqi and asked, "You... what else did he tell you?"

Gu Zhiqi didn’t answer immediately; instead, after swallowing the food in her mouth, she looked up at Gu Huaijin and said, "He said he’s my brother-in-law, and told me not to mistake him next time we meet."

"I see," Gu Huaijin murmured, then absentmindedly picked up chopsticks and put some food into Gu Zhiqi’s bowl, "Let’s eat."

Seeing this, Gu Zhiqi continued eating.

This meal, Gu Huaijin ate somewhat absentmindedly.

**

After going upstairs, Gu Zhiqi had Chubby Chiu investigate Feng Qi.

It didn’t take long before Gu Zhiqi received information about Feng Qi, and she buried her head in reading.

Feng Qi, graduated from Imperial Capital Art Academy, the youngest top director in Xia Country.

He started his directing career at 18, and in just three years, became a top domestic director, starting to connect internationally at 22.

Today Feng Qi is 25 years old, not only a well-known director in Xia Country but also gained some reputation internationally. In recent years, he has been directing films with international engagement.

The rest was his directing history, with many works.

This information is widely available online, easily searchable.

Chubby Chiu, seeing Gu Zhiqi had finished reading, immediately said, "These are the public records, but some records are hidden, hidden by Third Sister apparently. I need some time to crack them."

Gu Zhiqi listened and said, "No need to look further."

"Huh? Not investigating further, why?" Chubby Chiu was confused.
