Campus Ace Girl-Chapter 603 - 604: The Truth Comes Out, Fengxi Is Angry
Wang Yuan looked at Gu Anxi with a fresh pair of eyes! Holy crap, no wonder Mr. Min always said she was peculiar; now it seemed it was true!
The secretary looked down, holding the check in his hands, feeling its burning heat while also secretly desiring it. Gu Anxi smiled faintly. "Think about whether there are any other paths for your master to take aside from this one. Zhou Yu is pregnant; how will he protect her?"
Wang Yuan lowered his eyes, thinking for a long time before he quietly said, "Let me think about it." He tried to return the check, but Gu Anxi wouldn’t accept it. She said indifferently, "Just keep it. Consider it a deposit."
Five million, just for the deposit? Secretary Wang was dumbfounded. This benefactor was truly generous!
Watching Gu Anxi leave, he pressed on with his own affairs. When he returned to the hospital room and saw Mr. Min again, he felt somewhat guilty. Yet, the more he thought about it, the more he realized that Little Gu’s advice was sound—Mr. Min seemed to value this child greatly right now, so the child must be protected at all costs. Mr. Min had made too many enemies; it seemed there was only one path left for him...
「Meanwhile」
Gu Anxi returned to Bo Xichen’s office. Uncle Bo was on a call, possibly with a foreigner, and watched Gu Anxi while talking. After he hung up, he motioned for her to sit beside him. "What mischief have you been up to now?"
"I didn’t do anything!" Gu Anxi leaned on his shoulder, speaking softly. "Min Xin knows."
Bo Xichen glanced at her. "Did you purposely let him find out?"
"Not at all." She hugged his arm. "He saw the baby’s ultrasound report. If he still couldn’t figure it out after that, he’d be a pig."
Bo Xichen chuckled. His little charmer pestered him, wanting him to teach her the German medical book in front of him.
"Didn’t you just translate this book last month? You even won a small award for it."
The little minx blushed. "Uncle, can’t you just play along?"
He held her on his lap and said earnestly, "I thought that was something for when we’re home."
Suddenly, the little minx became flustered. What was he talking about?!
But she obediently leaned against Uncle Bo’s chest, behaving very well. After a while, Bo Xichen spoke in a low voice, "Why did you help Min Xin?"
The little minx snorted. "I didn’t help him! I helped Big Brother deal with him."
He laughed, stroking her hair gently, his voice hoarse. "You can tell me." As soon as he finished speaking, the little minx rushed into his arms, whispering, "I just thought that the child should have the right to choose with whom to live."
Bo Xichen sighed. He knew it! His little girl probably still couldn’t completely let go of her past. Every time she saw Gu Mingzhu, Tang Yuan, or Gu Yuanshan, her mood was likely affected.
He stayed silent, gently stroking her hair, consoling her without a word. Slowly, she relaxed in his arms and spoke softly, "Am I being childish?"
"No." He smiled. "I also agree that we should give this couple a way out."
If Min Xin could give up power and privilege for Zhou Yu, it wouldn’t necessarily be a bad thing. But the cost would be great. Everything he had worked so hard for over the years would have to be surrendered. The question was whether he was willing.
Gu Anxi let out a cry and wrapped her arms around his neck. "Uncle, you’re the best!"
Just as he was about to set her down, Director Hao and a few other older men arrived to discuss the afternoon’s surgery plans with Professor Bo. The moment they opened the door and called out "Professor Bo," they saw the scene—the normally brave Doctor Gu was hanging onto Professor Bo like a bear cub, in a rather indecorous pose.
The older men quickly covered their eyes. "We’ll come back later." 𝒻𝓇𝑒𝘦𝘸𝑒𝒷𝓃ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝒸ℴ𝘮
"No need." Bo Xichen casually removed the clinging little minx. "Go and play by yourself. If you’re bored, play with Fengxi."
Fengxi’s voice chimed in at the right moment, sounding quite serious. "Professor Bo, I need to record the meeting content. Professor Bo’s little darling can choose to play by herself or choose to cause trouble."
Director Hao and the others were astounded again. That Fengxi had really become sentient!
「Just then」
Feng Mian arrived and casually plopped down on Bo Xichen’s desk. "These are this month’s financial reports. Take a look and sign them."
Bo Xichen chuckled and tossed the reports to Gu Anxi. "You’re idle anyway."
Gu Anxi obediently said, "Oh," quite compliant. Director Hao and his colleagues admired Professor Bo. They had heard that Doctor Gu was lavishly indulged everywhere, but in front of Professor Bo, she behaved like a docile kitten. Gu Anxi noticed their expressions. At this point, Fengxi was silent again, so she cleared her throat. "Hey, Fengxi, weren’t you going to record the meeting? Why are you silent now?"
Bo Xichen glanced at her with mild reproach. Feng Mian looked like he was about to explode. He had recently distanced himself from Fengxi and stopped using all Phoenix Systems. He hadn’t expected to encounter it here.
At that moment, Fengxi spoke, "Acknowledged. I will keep up with the meeting content."
Gu Anxi said smugly, "Feng Mian is here. Aren’t you going to say hello?"
Fengxi chose to remain silent.
Gu Anxi said, "Aha! The truth is out! The AI is angry!"
Feng Mian abruptly pulled her away, documents and all, to a small conference room nearby. For the rest of the meeting, Fengxi seemed even more despondent.
Director Hao and his group of old fellows were academically accomplished, and their emotional intelligence wasn’t low either. From the overt and covert signs, they seemed to understand something... Yes, there appeared to be a somewhat ambiguous relationship between Feng Mian and Fengxi.
「In the small meeting room」
Gu Anxi looked at Feng Mian with a grin. "What, are you that afraid of Fengxi?"
Feng Mian responded somewhat coldly, "Absolutely not."
Gu Anxi merely replied with an "Oh?" "Is that so? By the way, I heard you have a girlfriend now!"
Feng Mian lit a cigarette, smiling faintly. "I do."
"You didn’t get a girlfriend just because of Fengxi, to prove you’re normal, right?" Gu Anxi rubbed her chin. "That doesn’t sound like something you’d do."
Feng Mian’s voice cooled further. "Gu Anxi."
Gu Anxi laughed. "Speaking of which, I’ve been idle lately and researching AI entities. I have a few designs. Let me show you."
She pulled out her cell phone and opened a link. "Look, I have five designs here: black hair, blonde hair, blue eyes. They’re all incredibly beautiful, with very fair skin and gorgeous figures. Which type do you like, Feng Mian?"
Feng Mian actually glanced through them. All five were indeed beautiful, but he preferred the black-haired one; her figure was particularly good. He pointed to that design. "This one is good."
Gu Anxi nodded. "Uncle also said this one is good and quite suitable for Fengxi. It seems you both have the same taste."
Feng Mian froze, completely disoriented.
