Chapter 145 Who Would Complain About Not Having Enough Money?
Master Gu is allergic to begonia pollen. Although it won't be life-threatening, it will make him feel unwell for a while.
She managed to get this information out of Chen Lie.
Gu Yanli looked at her intently, taking in all her little thoughts.
He raised his hand, and Chen Lie left the office.
"Why are you so hostile towards Master Gu?"
Gu Yanli leaned down to meet her gaze. Their eyes met, and their breaths brushed against each other's faces and reached their ears.
"for me?"
Su Yiran looked at the man so close to her and shrank back. "I just don't like him. Don't flatter yourself."
"Yes."
Gu Yanli chuckled softly, "I don't like him either."
"You clearly know that he was behind those things, but you can't do it openly because of the Gu family's rules. You can do it behind the scenes. If he's ruthless, don't blame you for being unjust. Even if he knows it was you who did it, he doesn't dare to expose it. He can only grit his teeth and swallow it."
Hearing her words, Gu Yanli's smile widened. "You still say it wasn't for me? Madam is just being stubborn."
"..."
Su Yiran pursed her lips tightly.
Try to get her to say something!
Yes, she just couldn't stand Gu Jiuye's arrogance.
Gu Yanli had never been one to be swayed by others' opinions. If it weren't for the rules and regulations of the Gu family, why would he have to put up with this kind of treatment?
"You still haven't told me why you're investigating Yan Yuan."
"Don't you already know the reason? Do I need to repeat it?"
"...Alright, then I won't bother you anymore. Goodbye!"
Su Yiran met Gu Yanli's gaze, gave a slight smile, picked up her bag, and got up to leave.
"lady."
Gu Yanli glanced at the time and kindly reminded him, "It's not time to get off work yet."
"Oh, what then?"
Su Yiran raised an eyebrow. "I quit!"
Having said that, she turned and left.
"Okay, but Madam, don't forget to pay the compensation for emotional distress before you leave."
"..."
Su Yiran stopped abruptly and turned to look at him. "Gu Yanli, you shameless person! You have plenty of money, why would you need my measly little bit?"
"Who would complain about not having enough money?"
"..."
That's true, who would complain about not having enough money!
"Who said I was leaving."
Su Yiran touched her belly. "Your baby wants to go out for a walk, is that not allowed?"
"That's fine."
"..."
Having received Gu Yanli's permission, Su Yiran left the office indignantly.
"lady."
As Su Yiran passed by the display station, her eyes caught sight of the documents on the table.
It was the copy he had taken in to show Gu Yanli earlier; Chen Lie hadn't had time to take it down to give to Yan Lianhe yet.
Su Yiran stopped and walked towards him. Chen Lie's heart was in his throat. He asked, "Madam, is there anything you need?"
"It's okay, just go about your business."
As Su Yiran spoke, she picked up the documents from the table.
"Madam, this is not allowed..."
Chen Lie instinctively wanted to stop him, but the other person simply looked up, instantly deflated his spirits.
Su Yi flipped through the documents, which were detailed accounts of her experiences from childhood to adulthood, even including the number of illnesses she had suffered.
She raised an eyebrow. "Does Yan Yuan have a deep-seated grudge against Yan Lianhe? She's even investigated her ancestors for eight generations."
Chen Lie lowered his head and said, "Madam, I still need to send this document down."
"...It's just a few sheets of paper, reprint it."
Su Yiran stuffed the documents into her bag and swaggered down the elevator.
When Yan Yuan went missing, Su Yiran thought she had left Kyoto. She didn't expect that she was still in Kyoto, but the location was a bit remote and the roads were winding and hard to find.
The Gu family's drivers are all professionally trained, so the driving is relatively smooth, but it still makes things difficult for Su Yiran in the back.
Even she, who never gets carsick, got carsick.
Su Yiran blocked Yan Yuan's place directly.
"Sister Yiran?"
The moment Yan Yuan saw Su Yiran, she instinctively turned and ran.
"He didn't come."
Su Yiran watched her retreating figure.
Yan Yuan paused in her steps.
Su Yiran walked over and said, "Even human traffickers can't find this place, and you actually found it. I'm almost dizzy. Aren't you going to invite me in for a seat?"
Yan Yuan looked at the person in front of her, opened the door, and said, "Excuse me, Sister Yiran, please sit down and let me pour you a glass of water."
While someone went to get water, Su Yiran looked at the furnishings in the room. Although they weren't very nice, they were quite cozy.
"I'm sorry, my home is simple."
Yan Yuan handed her the water, "Why are you here?"
“Yan Lianhe asked my husband to investigate you, and I happened to see it and came here before he could.”
"you……"
Yan Yuan's face turned pale, and she was on edge.
Are you curious why I'm telling you all this?
Su Yiran smiled and said, "Since Yan Lianhe used my husband's help, why can't I tell you the truth? I'm just curious, why are you avoiding him?"
"I……"
Yan Yuan lowered her head.
"Okay, then I'll ask it another way."
Su Yiran looked at her and asked, "What is Yan Lianhe's relationship with my husband? Or who exactly is Yan Lianhe?"
Those connected to Gu Yanli are probably not as simple as they seem.
Seeing that Yan Yuan and Yan Lianhe had an unusual relationship, it's likely that Yan Yuan knew something about them.
I just don't know the score.
Yan Yuan met Su Yiran's gaze, opened her mouth, hesitated for a moment, and said, "Why don't you just ask your husband? Why come all this way to ask me?"
"To be honest, my relationship with my husband has never been equal. There are many things that I can't know just because I want to."
Take, for example, the story of Uncle Zhong and his mother.
"Too."
Yan Yuan suddenly chuckled softly, "People of their social class are not that simple."
Su Yiran seized on a key point in her words, "You mean Yan Lianhe?"
"Yes and no."
Yan Yuan didn't say much, "It's getting late, Sister Yiran, you should leave quickly, it's getting dark, and the road here will be difficult to walk on."
"Yan Yuan?"
Su Yiran looked at her.
She turned and went back to her room, locking the door behind her.
Su Yiran said through the door, "I don't know what happened between you two. You have a father in a nursing home. I heard he hasn't been feeling well lately. You can go visit him when you have time."
After I finished speaking, there was still no echo from inside.
Su Yiran did not linger any longer and turned to leave.
On her way back, she kept thinking about Yan Yuan's words.
What do you mean by "it's him, but it's not him"?
Su Yiran had no clue, so she looked at Gu Jing and patted him on the shoulder, "Gu Jing, do you know anything about Yan Lianhe?"
Gu Jing gasped, his brows furrowed, and his face paled. He quickly regained his composure and shook his head. "I'm sorry, Madam. I'm not very clear about what happened during the years that Master sent me abroad."
Su Yiran frowned as she looked at his reaction. "Are you feeling unwell somewhere, in your shoulder or back?"
