Campus Ace Girl-Chapter 650 - 651: This Kid is Really Impressive, 3500 Words
Gu Anxi checked on Zhou Yu. Since Bo Xichen had surgery, she decided to visit Cloud He Group.
She had just left the hospital and was about to get into her car when she heard a voice calling out to her from a distance.
Gu Anxi leaned on the car door and looked. It was Gu Yuanshan’s driver. Then, Gu Yuanshan himself emerged from the car, a cautious expression on his face.
Gu Anxi stuck her hands in her pockets and walked over to him. "Mr. Gu, is there something you need?"
Gu Yuanshan looked her straight in the eye. "It’s like this: Changqing is returning from abroad tonight. He heard that you and Xichen got your marriage certificates, so he suggested everyone have dinner together. I thought, since I was free, I’d come and ask you."
Gu Anxi didn’t immediately agree, nor did she refuse.
Gu Yuanshan was slightly disappointed. Just then, the driver interjected, "Sir, he’s just asking on behalf of the young master. It’s truly not his own intention."
Gu Yuanshan shot him a glance. This old fool, doesn’t he know when to keep his mouth shut?
Gu Anxi gave a faint smile. "Congwen has also gotten her marriage certificate."
Upon hearing this, Gu Yuanshan’s face lit up with immense relief. "That child has also become accomplished. The person she found is very good. That’s great."
"I thought you didn’t consider Zhou Yunchen a good match," Gu Anxi said with a smile.
I still think he’s not good enough, Gu Yuanshan thought.
But on the surface, he said with a smile, "Director Zhou is young and promising; how could he not be a good match?"
Gu Anxi smiled. "Alright then, I’ll bring the two of them along." After saying this, she headed towards her car.
Gu Yuanshan’s eyes were practically tearing up as he watched her, full of longing.
His driver, Uncle De, consoled him, "Sir, it looks like the young miss is going to forgive you."
Gu Yuanshan sighed softly. "She’s doing it for Congwen. She’s thick-skinned and her loyalties run deep. She’s just afraid Congwen can’t let it go. Besides, it’s probably also for Changqing and Gu Ning’s face."
Uncle De offered a few more words of consolation. Just then, Gu Anxi opened her car door, then closed it, turned her head, and smiled. "Mr. Gu, actually, I still really like money!"
Most of the Gu Corporation’s shares had been given to her. The sincerity was there, so she wouldn’t embarrass him.
Gu Yuanshan had wronged her, but money hadn’t wronged her!
Just like Old Master Wang of Jiangcheng—his family had treated Mom so badly, but their money was still fragrant!
Uncle De hadn’t reacted yet, but Gu Yuanshan did, both shocked and delighted.
Does Anxi mean she wants to break the ice with him?
However, he immediately became angry again—
How could a child of our Gu family turn out like this, so blatantly and repeatedly saying they love money?!!! It must be Gu Yuntian! No, it’s Wang Keru!
Now, all of Beicheng was saying Wang Keru was extremely fond of money, treating her daughter like an ATM. She loved to indulge, possessing a drawer full of ’pigeon eggs,’ more extravagant than any socialite!
At this moment, Gu Yuanshan wished he could take Gu Anxi home and raise her from a few years old, when she started her enlightenment. He would personally teach her divination, ensuring little Anxi received traditional Chinese education from a young age, growing up to be proficient in zither, chess, calligraphy, and painting—not someone whose eyes were solely filled with money, money, money!
Driver Uncle De watched his master’s face turn pale, then red, unable to tell if he was happy or unhappy...
Meanwhile, Gu Anxi got into the car, appearing utterly indifferent.
For her, accepting money didn’t mean she had to affectionately call Old Gu ’Dad.’ He would still be Mr. Gu. Besides, he was the one who came to her.
Gu Anxi started the car and WHOOSHED past Gu Yuanshan, leaving behind a cloud of exhaust fumes.
Gu Yuanshan choked. Uncle De looked on with admiration. "The young miss is truly impressive!"
Gu Yuanshan coughed a few more times, then said, "This child, she drives too fast."
After a moment, he looked in the direction the car had gone, then suddenly chuckled foolishly. "This child is truly impressive."
Uncle De looked at his master’s expression and thought, He’s done for, he’s gone silly...
Gu Anxi drove straight to Cloud He Group. As soon as she arrived at the office, she convened a meeting to establish a separate electronic R&D department within Cloud He Group.
Managers Ma and Wang objected, "Miss Gu, we don’t have personnel with that kind of expertise!"
"You’re responsible for recruitment. PhDs or higher, with less than three years of work experience," Gu Anxi stated succinctly.
Manager Ma was puzzled. "Why less than three years, not more?"
Gu Anxi glanced at him. "If a PhD holder hasn’t made a name for themselves after more than three years, they might as well go home and roast sweet potatoes."
Managers Ma and Wang exchanged a glance. Miss Gu’s words are truly venomous.
Gu Anxi then turned to the Head of Finance. "Funding is absolutely not an issue. However, I require the financial reports daily."
This was a project worth hundreds of billions. There was no room for error.
The Head of Finance nodded gravely. Ever since witnessing Miss Gu’s prowess at the Bo Family’s home, even if Miss Gu were to fart, he would consider it fragrant.
The meeting lasted only half an hour. Gu Anxi returned to her office and didn’t play any games. Instead, she took out her laptop and was constantly calculating data...
The office was quiet, with only Secretary Tang occasionally bringing her coffee. She was surprised. It had been a long time since Miss Gu showed such dedication to work. Or rather, the entire company was managed so effectively by Miss Gu that everyone was compliant. No one dared to cause trouble or challenge her.
She just didn’t know what earth-shattering thing Miss Gu was planning now.
Secretary Tang asked casually. Gu Anxi, seeming a bit dazed, replied, "I lost a friend. Now I just want to bring her back."
Secretary Tang didn’t quite understand. She just said, "Oh," then clenched her fist. "Then, go for it, Miss Gu!"
Gu Anxi smiled. "Thank you."
Then, her gaze fell upon the screen. She had two sets of data: one was shared with the development department; the other was private, related to Fengxi. She combined her Little Uncle’s data and everything Feng Mian had input, gradually injecting it into that microchip... Someday, Fengxi would return.
She worked until eight in the evening when she received a call from Bo Xichen. Closing her laptop, she asked somewhat lazily, "Little Uncle, are you done with work?"
Bo Xichen smiled. "I’m downstairs."
He paused. "I heard a certain young lady agreed to a dinner. Everyone’s here now, just waiting for you, and yet you’ve been busy all this time."
Gu Anxi immediately checked the time. "I completely forgot!"
"Come down quickly," Bo Xichen said.
The call ended. He took out a cigarette and lit it, smiling. Gu Yuanshan didn’t even dare to call himself and made me do it. What a coward.
Gu Anxi left immediately. Secretary Tang was still waiting for her. She felt a little guilty. "In the future, if you see I’m busy, just clock out yourself."
Secretary Tang smiled. "Okay, Miss Gu."
They went downstairs together. Watching Gu Anxi hop into Professor Bo’s car, Secretary Tang couldn’t help but smile. Miss Gu really has an unexpected charm.
Once inside the car, Gu Anxi started rubbing her belly. "Little Uncle, I’m hungry."
Bo Xichen laughed. "What were you busy with? I heard you’re working on a big project."
Gu Anxi hummed. "Yeah! A big project."
He started the car and didn’t ask any further. But given his understanding of her, he knew it had something to do with Fengxi. Otherwise, no project could burn money like this. But he knew even better that she never just burned money for nothing; she would naturally make a small fortune along the way.
Gu Anxi sat in the car, yawning constantly. He knew she was tired, so he said softly, "Sleep for a while. I’ll wake you when we arrive."
She hummed in agreement. "Okay."
She leaned back against the seat obediently and quickly fell asleep.
Bo Xichen turned up the air conditioning a bit and drove smoothly. About half an hour later, they arrived at the hotel. He parked the car and gently patted her small face. "Anxi."
Gu Anxi opened her eyes, her gaze somewhat hazy. She looked around. "Are we here?"
He nodded. "We’re here. Get out of the car."
Gu Anxi unbuckled her seatbelt, still drowsy, her head bobbing like a pecking chick. In the end, he had no choice but to half-carry her as they walked.
When Gu Yuanshan saw her, his eyes lit up, but he was too embarrassed to show it too obviously, merely greeting Bo Xichen.
Gu Anxi leaned against Bo Xichen, looking at Gu Yuanshan.
Gu Yuanshan was completely bewildered.
Zhou Yunchen, who understood Gu Anxi best, knew this meal was obtained by Gu Yuanshan practically squandering his entire fortune. He found it amusing and glanced at his own wife.
Shen Congwen sat there, feeling quite awkward. After all, she had always been a man in their eyes, especially to the Gu family. Now, eating together like this...
This included Gu Changqing, who had called her a lackey.
Gu Changqing glared daggers at Shen Congwen.
Zhou Yunchen lit a cigar and chuckled. "Brother Changqing, if you keep looking at my wife like that, I’ll think you have a secret crush on her."
Gu Changqing averted his gaze, glaring at Zhou Yunchen. "Do you think everyone shares your... tastes?"
Zhou Yunchen could fool others, but not him. Those two clearly had an ambiguous relationship before. Zhou Yunchen truly has... unique tastes, Gu Changqing thought.
Shen Congwen smiled. "Well, that’s still better than having no interests at all."
Ding Ning smiled faintly. 𝘧𝓇𝑒𝑒𝑤ℯ𝑏𝓃𝘰𝑣ℯ𝘭.𝘤ℴ𝘮
Gu Changqing was about to explode. What does she mean, ’no interests at all’? He and Ding Ning are doing just fine! This Shen Congwen is truly insidious!
He had no good impression of Gu Yuanshan, nor of Shen Congwen, that lackey. But now, in such a short time, the Gu family had been turned upside down. They were all sitting together, and no one could stand the sight of anyone else.
Gu Yuanshan, however, had completely changed his former demeanor, acting like a peacemaker, his temper surprisingly good.
Well, his family fortune was gone, his divination tools thrown away, and now he had nothing left.
He sat there, watching Gu Anxi eat with gusto, and couldn’t help but ask, "By the way, Anxi, your ’Little Deity,’ from whom did she learn her arts?"
Gu Anxi looked up, a half-smile on her face. "Are you thinking of learning from her?"
Gu Yuanshan’s old face flushed. "At my age, how could I possibly learn from her?"
An idea struck Gu Changqing. "Then let her learn from you. It’s perfect for her to inherit the position of Family Head."
Gu Yuanshan’s face darkened. "Changqing, do you disdain the position of Family Head so much?"
"If that stuff was reliable, how could you not divine that Gu Mingzhu wasn’t a child of this family?" Gu Changqing crudely brought up his old father’s sore spot.
Gu Yuanshan’s mouth moved, but he remained silent.
Gu Changqing, feeling it wasn’t enough, added, "If it was accurate, how did you not figure out Shen Congwen is a woman?"
Gu Yuanshan’s mouth gaped open, but he said nothing.
Gu Changqing continued, "If your divinations were accurate, would Anxi still be eating with us? She would have destroyed the Gu family long ago."
At this point, the new lackey, Uncle De, weakly said, "Actually, it’s pretty close, Young Master Changqing. Look, isn’t the Gu family in an uproar now, with chickens flying and dogs jumping? And the Gu Corporation... it’s all in the hands of the Young Miss and Miss Shen. Actually... actually... it’s not wrong to say a ’demonic star’ has descended."
Gu Anxi, nibbling on a small meatball, said slowly, "I haven’t received the share transfer documents yet. Congwen, have you?"
Shen Congwen shook her head, smiling.
Gu Anxi put down her chopsticks and clapped her hands. "Exactly. The shares haven’t arrived yet, so how can you pin that label on us!"
She looked expectantly at Gu Yuanshan. "You people wouldn’t understand the feeling of being abandoned."
Bo Xichen gave her a reproachful glance.
Zhou Yunchen chuckled quietly.
Shen Congwen was at a loss.
Old Gu couldn’t hold back anymore and coughed lightly. "Isn’t it just shares? I’ll have the lawyer come over to sign immediately!"
Who cares about the family fortune? Who cares about money? Aren’t they just saying I lack sincerity? I’ll show them! Let these little rascals open their dog eyes wide and see!
Gu Ning thought, Big brother, you’re being impulsive! Can’t you see Anxi only came today for your money!
Aunt Gu Rong thought, With this kind of aptitude, the Family Head should be replaced quickly! What an embarrassment!
Gu Changqing thought, Sign it immediately, so he won’t bother me with this again later! It’s just too bad it benefits Shen Congwen, that vicious dog!
