I asked him.
Xu Yinuo sat down on the sofa and looked at me with cold eyes.
“He’s putting on a show! Can’t you see?”
“Really? Do you have any proof?”
Xu Yinuo sneered and threw a stack of documents at me.
These were newspapers from three years ago.
They published information about real estate bidding, and one line, underscored in red by Xu Yinuo, caught my eye.
It was about a piece of land at Beilu Hill which was won at an auction by Zhenyi Company.
“What is this supposed to prove?”
“Beilu Hill was a piece of land that Gu Yuanzhou had bought at a cost of 2 billion. However, he made a failed investment, and now he can’t sell it due to the poor real estate market. With the bank pressuring him to pay up every day, he resorted to using the Yin Mansion as a gimmick to hasten the sale!
You will see if you don’t believe me.”
Xu Yinuo left after depositing these words.
Even though I didn’t want to believe him, what happened next transpired almost as Xu Yinuo had predicted.
The next day, news of the boss of Zhenyi Company buying Yin Mansion at Beilu Hill to honor his deceased wife spread rapidly and soon topped the search trends.
Beilu Hill was once again a hot topic…
Haha!
Gu Yuanzhou, you are indeed ruthless.
Not only did you exploit your deceased wife for personal gain, but you also wouldn’t hesitate to disregard your own child!
You beast!
I was furious!
But no matter how much anger I held, 1 couldn’t deliver harm to Gu Yuanzhou, not even to allow me the satisfaction of slapping him once.
All I could do was swallow my fury.
1 must find the mistress!
Once I find the mistress, I can drag him into the mire and make sure he never recovers.
1 calmed down.
After carefully considering and comparing the clues, I again focused on Ye Mengyan.
Ye Mengyan always says she has nothing to do with Gu Yuanzhou.
But she did not explain why Gu Yuanzhou’s credit card was with her!
Something is fishy here!
I changed my approach, I decided to create an opportunity…
To put Ye Mengyan and Gu Yuanzhou together face to face.
I believe, illicit affairs cannot be concealed.
If two people have been intimately involved…
Their eyes cannot lie, and their body language will inevitably betray them.
On Monday afternoon, I received a text from the TIF Fashion Design Competition organizers inviting me to the award ceremony.
1 didn’t want to reveal my identity, so 1 used Ye Mengyan’s student ID to participate in the competition.
Once I arrived at the event, Ye Mengyan grabbed my hand with uncontained joy.
“Xiaoyun, first prize! You’re just too brilliant!”
“Xiaoyun, how did you do it! You’re really so talented!”
I just smiled and didn’t say a word. Ten years ago, I was already a pioneer in the fashion world, so this small award didn’t mean a thing.
After some hesitation, Ye Mengyan ventured to ask me,
“Xiaoyun, are you going to accept the award as me?”
I saw the eagerness in Ye Mengyan!s large eyes, I knew what she wanted.
For me, this award was of no consequence so I decided to fulfill her wish.
“You go and accept the award! You’re the one whose identity was used after all!”
“But you won the trophy, I feel a bit guilty about taking it.”
“It’s okay! Getting this award will make it easier for you to land a good internship!”
“Thank you so much!”
Ye Mengyan hugged me and went on stage to accept the trophy with a joyful smile.
As I sat in the audience and watched Ye Mengyan’s youthful grin, I sensed that something was off.
I turned my head and scanned the crowd…
To my surprise, I saw Gu Yuanzhou!
He was sitting in the VIP seats in the front row.
I knew my opportunity had arrived!
After the award ceremony, I found Ye Mengyan backstage.
“Since you are so interested in fashion, let me introduce you to a friend!” “Who’s this friend?”
“He’s a big shot in a fashion company. Meeting him might give you an opportunity to get into his company.”
“Really? Am I appropriately dressed? I’m not great at small talk, is there anything I should watch out for?”
Ye Mengyan was overjoyed and her excitement was palpable.
“Don’t worry, I’ll be with you! Just go with the flow.”
The fashion design award ceremony was held at the sports stadium.
Actually, it was quite normal for Gu Yuanzhou to appear here,
After all, Zhenyi Company is one of the top ten fashion companies in A City, it would be normal for him to come and see the fashion show.
After the show, Gu Yuanzhou had an arrangement for drinks at Fangtai Hotel beside the sports stadium.
Being his secretary had the advantage of knowing his whereabouts at all times.
Since becoming the president of the company, Gu Yuanzhou liked to take a hands-on approach to important decisions.
Every fashion week, he would personally attend to identify any emerging fashion trends or distinctive designs to take back to the company’s design department.
In terms of business, he is not only smart, but also willing to put in the effort.
Usually, after a round of drinks, Gu Yuanzhou would be slightly tipsy, and his guard would be lower, making it easier to see his true reactions.
During the course of the drinks, I did not disturb him.
When I saw they had had enough to drink, I went to find Ye Mengyan…
It seemed that Ye Mengyan had guessed the identity of the person I was about to introduce her to.
She had clearly taken great care in her appearance.
She knew how to dress up.
She wore a white dress, wore her hair down, and her face was adorned with light Korean-style makeup, it appeared casual and light.
But as a woman, I knew that her seemingly natural face was actually much harder to achieve than those with heavy makeup.
Similarly, she knew and understood the taste of middle-aged men very well.
She knew that men of this age are tired of heavily made-up women, preferring the refreshing simplicity of a younger girl.
Her eyes filled with anticipation as she approached the private room.
About ten minutes later, the guests had left, and then I guided Ye Mengyan into the private room.
“President Gu! “
