Chapter 159: Chi Yu Believes in Gods and Buddhas

In Yi Shu’s eyes, Gu Yuan is a cold-hearted capitalist, showing no mercy to Chi Yu, nor soft-hearted towards him.Whatever she decides to do, she will see it through to the end.

Breaking up without destroying Chi Yu’s career was already considered fortunate. Would President Gu not be angry now that Chi Yu has disappeared and stopped working??

"President Gu... Chi Yu’s situation over there is indeed very important. I hope you can show some mercy, Chi Yu is already in a miserable state..." In a rush, Yi Shu accidentally let it slip.

The suspicion of playing the pity card was very serious, and Yi Shu feared President Gu wouldn’t fall for it, so he quickly stopped talking.

He immediately backpedaled: "No, President Gu, what I mean is that Chi Yu hasn’t been very lucky lately, so he went to pray."

Gu Yuan: "..."

Others might not know, but Gu Yuan definitely knows that Chi Yu believes in gods and Buddha.

"Disappearing mysteriously, just to pray?" Gu Yuan asked an extra question.

Yi Shu nodded vigorously: "Yes, Chi Yu went to pray."

Oh right!

He hadn’t thanked her for that matter yet.

Now that Chi Yu’s return was uncertain, being able to talk to President Gu today was beyond Yi Shu’s expectations. He hurriedly said, "President Gu, about that incident that day, thank you for your help. Otherwise, Chi Yu wouldn’t have gotten out so quickly, and his career would have been heavily impacted."

Gu Yuan raised an eyebrow: "Which incident?"

Yi Shu was stunned; did President Gu forget?

"It’s... it’s the incident where you bailed Chi Yu out of the detention center. His conduct was... a bit serious. Without your help, he wouldn’t have gotten out in seven or eight days or even half a month. Moreover, after he got out, everything was suppressed without a hint of wind in the outside world. Thank you, President Gu, for your old friendship in rescuing Chi Yu from the fire and water."

Only someone like Gu Yuan had that kind of ability.

But Gu Yuan was not aware of this.

She understood the general idea from Yi Shu’s words, but she wasn’t the type to claim credit, so she told Yi Shu: "You are mistaken, I did nothing. Chi Yu must have someone else influential behind him, or... never mind, you go about your business."

Gu Yuan turned and walked inside.

Earlier, she was about to say that Chi Yu had probably found himself a new wealthy patroness.

That wasn’t something she should say.

...

Wen Fei is coming back tonight.

After handling all business matters in advance, Gu Yuan returned to the Gu Mansion to make preparations.

Everyone at the Gu Mansion was busy today, cleaning every nook and cranny, ensuring it was spotless. Uncle Xiang stood by Gu Yuan’s side, reading off a procurement list, to which Gu Yuan responded one by one.

"The tulips that Madam likes have been ordered."

"Madam doesn’t like the carpets, so they’re all changed to lambswool carpets."

"Madam doesn’t like to see..."

When reading this, Uncle Xiang’s tone paused, as if preparing to ask.

At this moment, Gu Yuan, standing there, said: "There’s no need to relocate the Black-winged Kite. Even if she doesn’t like it, she’ll have to look at it. This time, don’t cater to her."

The Black-winged Kite is an internationally protected bird species that inhabits the area around the Gu Mansion. This batch of Black-winged Kites has been raised by Gu Yuan herself, and she has raised them very well.

However, Wen Fei doesn’t want to see them.

Every time Wen Fei comes back, these Black-winged Kites would have to be relocated.

But this time, Gu Yuan did not accommodate Wen Fei.

Uncle Xiang was pleased with Gu Yuan’s words: "Miss Gu, you should be like this. There’s no need to comply with Madam in everything; she doesn’t appreciate it, and it just wears out your heart."

Gu Yuan nodded in agreement: "I’m aware of it in my heart, Uncle Xiang, go ahead and make the arrangements, just like every year."

"Alright, then I’ll get to it."

After taking a few steps, Uncle Xiang suddenly came back, as there was one more thing about Mr. Chi...
