Chapter 109: V19: Sometimes, I feel like he is a cunning little roundworm in a woman’s belly.

On the plane, taking the night flight back home.

When Yu Yuanshen took good care of Gu Zixuan, he had no idea he had already become someone else’s target.

In the first-class cabin, the figure of Gu Zixuan sitting beside him was so real.

He bought her seat on the left aisle, while he sat inside. Though this made it a bit inconvenient for him to get in and out, it was much easier for Gu Zixuan to get up, and with her left foot close to the inside, he didn’t have to worry about anyone passing by bumping into her.

"Anyway, it’s an overnight flight, and sleeping on the plane will make time pass faster. It’s almost 2 AM now, and we’ll reach home around 10 PM. Hurry and sleep. I’ll wake you at proper meal times, and be careful with your foot."

While speaking, Yu Yuanshen also tucked in his legs a bit.

His deep-set eyes and clean appearance carried an air of elegance, like a graceful white violin.

His thoughtfulness brought warmth to Gu Zixuan’s eyes, and she smiled, curling her lips. "Thank you, Brother Yu."

"No need to be so polite." He stopped mid-sentence, recalling the scene that had unfolded at Paris Square a few hours ago. Yu Yuanshen’s eyebrows furrowed slightly, then he nonchalantly turned his face away, asking, "By the way, how did you end up going to France with Feng Chengjin?"

Realizing that Brother Yu didn’t buy her previous explanation, and the mark on her face was a bit too obvious, she smiled slightly and spoke the truth. "It’s nothing really. I went to reclaim some documents from him, and we struck a business contract. During dinner, I received a call from home saying He Xiaoqi had an accident. My car wasn’t available, so he drove me home..."

Gu Zixuan paused. "Something unfortunate happened at home. When I left and found that his car hadn’t gone, I went to his place with him. Later, maybe he realized that I was in a really bad state. I even cried that day and had a fever. He realized I couldn’t be left alone, and since he was heading to France to discuss business, he just brought me along."

Gu Zixuan spoke simply, deliberately avoiding family matters, and detailed the process of going to France with Feng Chengjin.

Yu Yuanshen’s eyes turned cold for a moment, hearing the key point.

His fingertips lightly touched Gu Zixuan’s cheek but didn’t linger. "Did the He Family do this?"

Gu Zixuan pursed her lips, unsure whether to say yes. In the end, she could only smile faintly. "Forget it, it’s all in the past. I’ve been out for so many days; they must be worried. They shouldn’t give me a hard time when I go back."

Her willingness to speak on behalf of the He Family made Yu Yuanshen let out a long breath. "Zixuan."

Gu Zixuan looked up, her heart fluttering slightly, and gave a bitter smile, turning her face away. "It can’t be that bad, Brother Yu. Back when the incident in New York happened, He Qimo was willing to risk his life to protect me. Maybe it’s just that I don’t get along with his family. He might find me a bit... domineering. I’ll work on it, and things will improve."

After speaking, she continued to lower her gaze, making Yu Yuanshen slowly clench his fingertips but unable to say anything.

In an instant, it was like he understood why Feng Chengjin would act so decisively. If it were him, he might have done the same.

Because she really shouldn’t have to bear so much!

But how could he persuade Gu Zixuan?

During that time when she was injured and blind in New York, the impact of He Qimo on Gu Zixuan was so significant that she could remember it for so many years, cherishing those few weeks of care and holding on for eight years... f.re(e) w.e(b)nov el.c.om

Yu Yuanshen remained silent, yet Gu Zixuan could sense his heavy breathing.

She paused when the flight attendant started serving the first round of nighttime beverages to see who needed them. freew\e bnovel.com

As the attendant passed by Gu Zixuan, she smiled and told the flight attendant, "tea/and/water."

"OK." The flight attendant smiled charmingly and kindly poured two cups, handing them to Gu Zixuan.

After the drinks cart moved away, Gu Zixuan handed the tea to Yu Yuanshen. "Brother Yu."

Yu Yuanshen drank coffee during the day and tea at night, a small life habit that Gu Zixuan knew and remembered clearly.

Looking at the red tea being handed to him and her clear eyes through the cup, his heart rippled slightly.

But in the instant he took it, he suddenly and sharply realized something.

Looking at the fingers that had just touched, he deliberately hesitated for a moment. But Gu Zixuan didn’t react at all. Only after he took it securely did she slowly withdraw her fingertips, her expression as composed as if she didn’t realize they were of different genders.

Thinking about Gu Zixuan playing with a pillow with Feng Chengjin, blushing in his embrace.

He narrowed his brown eyes and said, "Zixuan, what do you think of Feng Chengjin as a person?"

"Pretty good, he’s nice to people without being oppressive. He’s very polite to ladies, even if he’s a bit childish at times, he doesn’t act recklessly. Generous, principled, and has high IQ and EQ. Most importantly, he seems to understand what women are thinking. Sometimes I feel he’s not as domineering and deep as he looks but more like a little worm in a woman’s stomach who knows her thoughts."

Not knowing why Yu Yuanshen asked, Gu Zixuan gave an honest answer, and as she finished speaking, she even unconsciously laughed.

Yu Yuanshen, however, thought of the nearly legendary man he had heard about in the business circle in Rong City all these years.

His career had its ups and downs, but each time he stood with an even more commanding stance at the top of the business world. His methods were strong, and he acted swiftly and decisively. Although he appeared elegant, everyone who engaged with him knew that beneath his approachable exterior was a high level of arrogance and self-confidence that couldn’t be challenged.

His love life was also very clean. 17 years in the industry and no scandals. No women dared to approach him. He seemed to have liked someone, but he eventually let it go, and it ended with no results.

But why does such a man, who has always been obsessed with making money from business and whom neither men nor women dare to provoke, appear so casual in Gu Zixuan’s eyes?

Moreover, Feng Chengjin’s attitude yesterday, so blatant and unabashedly obvious...

Feeling something is completely off, Yu Yuanshen furrowed his brow tighter and tighter as he drank tea, unable to connect his thoughts.

When his mind was entirely chaotic as tangled yarn, he decided in frustration not to dwell on it.

But accompanied with Gu Zixuan getting up to go to the restroom, he glanced at the flat shoes on her feet, which Feng Chengjin had specifically ordered Qin Nuo to buy. Qin Nuo had come back with them, only to be told at the hospital entrance, "Too hard, go change them."

A slight stir in his heart.

In a daze, while idly chatting about Rong City entrepreneurs in the past, words his friend had spoken suddenly invaded his ears.

"He once liked a woman, and his care for her was unparalleled. He even went to the United States to start a company. Eight years ago, his wound from an appendectomy wasn’t yet healed before he headed to the United States, almost causing an uproar within the Feng Family."

Yu Yuanshen’s eyebrows trembled as if connecting the dots of a storyline, looking at Gu Zixuan in astonishment, his brown eyes filled with quivering light, unable to snap out of it for a long time...

...

Rong City, by the beach at Binhai Road.

He Qimo listened with a gloomy expression as Liang Xi reported after returning from abroad.

"President, I noticed that the wife’s phone has been turning on at set times for about an hour every day these past few days. I contacted Director Chen yesterday, and through location tracking during the activation, it was found to be active on Binhai Road, but by the time we arrived, the phone was off again and the person was gone. It’s good that you’re here now, you can check it out."

It’s now 5 PM, and after returning to the country, He Qimo was caught with another impromptu invitation from high-ranking officials, unable to decline, accompanied them for another three days.

Those three days, he constantly wanted to leave, but faced with the official from the central committee inspecting Rong City, he just couldn’t resist and stayed on site.

The drinking over three days almost had his stomach churning.

At this moment, faced with six whole days without seeing Gu Zixuan, his anxiety is even more intense.

Perhaps the emotional tension expedited the spread of stomach pain; when the spasms hit, Liang Xi promptly handed him stomach pain medication and opened a bottle of water.

After drinking, he paused a while, waited for his complexion to ease a bit, then asked: "Does she come here every afternoon?"

"Yes, but the location is not very fixed, and the activation time is very short, so the positioning might not be accurate. But today everything around here is arranged, so there shouldn’t be any issues."

He Qimo looked up, observing the normal Volkswagen and Toyota cars parked at Binhai Road parking spots, nodding slightly.

Shouldn’t attract too much attention.

...

Time gradually approaches dusk.

In Rong City, it’s the fourth day since Miss Gu and President Feng departed, Mrs. Xu picked up her grandson from kindergarten near dusk, had an early dinner, and took her grandson and daughter-in-law to play a while at Shanghai Beach.

On the beach, it’s filled with the joyous little feet running of her grandson, while the daughter-in-law watches with a smile on the side.

Yet she touched the phone in her pocket hesitantly.

Should she just throw it away?

It’s worth thousands of dollars...

But considering the considerable salary and care President Feng had given her, Mrs. Xu pondered for a while before slowly reaching for the phone in her bag.

She was about to throw it into the sea when no one was watching.

Her daughter-in-law, Zou Min, saw it and chuckled, "Mom, whose phone is this?"

"Um..." Mrs. Xu hesitated, yet before she could speak, her grandson ran over, saw the phone, and thinking it was his father’s, immediately grabbed it, "Grandma, let me play ’Running Everyday’."

"Hey! That’s not your dad’s phone." Mrs. Xu hurriedly followed him.

But nothing could stop her 5-year-old grandson who already knew how to operate a smartphone and pressed the power button.

The pleasant ringtone rang, seemingly an incoming call.

Mrs. Xu’s face turned pale, hastily wanting to call out, "Don’t answer!"

But she couldn’t stop her grandson’s nimble fingers, "Hello! I’m little Xi Xi, who are you looking for?"
