"Aren't you going to ask me what you should do?" Ye Shaoting looked at Gu Xiukai, whose face was unable to hide his thoughts.
Having just established a cooperative relationship, his mind had already begun to plan how to lead Gu Corporation to glory, and then to confront those old guys who looked down on him.
Gu Xiukai replied sternly, "Since you've already guaranteed that I can secure my position as Gu's heir, I assume what you want me to do won't cost me my life. Therefore, what I do is unimportant."
In his mind, a worthless life was acceptable. As long as the future held a beautiful life, he didn't care what others thought.
Through their conversation, Ye Shaoting's initial prejudice was broken. He saw that although Gu Xiukai didn't seem very intelligent, he was a good partner.
"When does the cooperation begin?" Gu Xiukai no longer wanted to wait.
"Now," Ye Shaoting replied.
The two looked at each other.
Leaving Gu Residence, Ye Shaoting looked up at the camera above and took out his phone to capture it.
As soon as Ye Shaoting's car drove away, Ye Chenhan's car emerged from a nearby road. He got out of the car, dusty and dishevelled, and directly pushed open the door to enter Gu Residence.
"Why are you back again?" Gu Xiukai turned around, mistaking the person for Ye Shaoting who had just left, and was surprised to see Ye Chenhan.
Ye Chenhan didn't find his question odd. He went to the sofa and began searching on it, "Did I drop my wallet here?"
"Wallet?" Gu Xiukai walked to his side and joined the search. "I haven't seen it. Your words make me feel like you're trying to extort me."
Extort him?
Ye Chenhan looked up at him, "You're overthinking it."
The throw pillows on the sofa were all tossed aside, with one even falling on the floor.
Gu Xiukai bent down to pick it up, holding it as he played with it. "You only came here just now. If it's not here, then it wasn't dropped here."
Could it really not have been dropped here?
Lost in thought, Ye Chenhan searched again, unwilling to give up. The sofa was clean, with nothing else on it except the throw pillows.
"If you see it, give me a call and I'll come back to pick it up," Ye Chenhan said to Gu Xiukai.
Gu Xiukai nodded, "Don't worry, I will."
After all, he would soon be actively seeking them out.
Having found nothing, Ye Chenhan drove away.
Ye Group.
Ye Chenhan was like a gust of wind. He pushed open the door and sat on the sofa in Ye Shaoting's office, "Brother, what did you ask me to get?"
Ye Shaoting had just arrived as well. He looked at Ye Chenhan, who had arrived a moment later, "Why did it take so long?"
"I realized halfway that my wallet was missing, so I went back to Gu Residence." Ye Chenhan picked up the teacup in front of him and poured himself a cup of tea.
He went back? How come I didn't see him?
Ye Shaoting walked from his desk to him, "Did you find it?"
"No, I might have dropped it at home," Ye Chenhan replied.
Seeing that Ye Chenhan didn't ask him back, Ye Shaoting realized that he had returned after he had left.
Turning back to his desk, he took out a document from the drawer. "Give this to Di Mingjue."
"What is this?" Gu Xiukai asked, taking it and beginning to flip through it.
The contents were personal profiles, and the photos attached to them were somewhat familiar.
"Information about the people who kidnapped Zi Yu at the beginning," Ye Shaoting said. "I sent people to investigate, and they were all paid to do it."
Mentioning these people, Ye Chenhan became angry. The police had interrogated them for many days, but they were all tight-lipped as if their mouths were glued with superglue, refusing to speak. With no way to coerce them, they could only be provided with food and lodging at the police station.
"Give this to Di Mingjue. Perhaps by understanding them, he can find a breakthrough," Ye Shaoting said.
This information was actually of little use, as the police had already begun their search on the sea.
