Chapter 42: 42: How Many More Things is He Hiding From Me_1

The hotel manager seemed to think for a while,
“It must have been about four years ago! He invested a hundred million, and now he’s one of the six shareholders of the hotel.’
“Oh, right, right… Quite impressive.”
“Indeed, the real estate market has doubled in just a few years, and the valuation of this hotel has increased tenfold!”
Four years ago!!
When I was pregnant with our second child, around that time, I had left the workforce.
I had handed the company over to President Gu alone to manage.
1 had no idea that he invested a hundred million in other ventures at that time.
More importantly, he didn’t tell me!
So, in our ten years of marriage, how many more things has he been hiding from me?
Seeing my shocked expression, the hotel manager added proudly,
“President Gu has a unique vision and makes decisive moves; he has a significant potential in investment. This hotel is just one of his many businesses, and reportedly, he has many other enterprises!”
“Really? What are those enterprises?”
No sooner had I finished my question than Gu Yuanzhou’s footsteps resounded.
The manager tactfully changed the subject, asking,
“Mr. Gu, will you be dining in the restaurant later, or shall I have a meal sent up to you?”
“No need, we have other matters to attend to!” “Alright, if you need anything, just give me a call!”
Having said that, the manager respectfully left.
By then, Gu Yuanzhou had changed into a sleek black suit.
“These few days are very important for me. Make sure to take accurate meeting notes, especially those relating to quotes and contracts. Report to me every evening. ”
Having been married to Gu Yuanzhou for nearly ten years, as the woman who knows him best, 1 believe no other assistant could be more suitable for him.
After a brief rest in the morning, we went out.
He had a tight schedule that day.
In the morning, he attended an e-commerce exhibition held by HK. He expressed interest in several projects, and discussions about collaboration were underway.
After a quick break at noon, he attended several more meetings.
I accompanied him every step of the way…
Not until 8 P.M. did all his appointments for the day come to an end.
Having been on my feet for the whole day, I was knocked out.
Fortunately, each bedroom in his top-floor apartment was equipped with a bathtub, allowing me to talk to Wenya while taking a bath.
When 1 told Wenya about Gu Yuanzhou’s investments in hotels and such in C City, she immediately started cursing.
“I’ve told you before – this man is two-faced! Not only does he keep a mistress, but he’s also secretly moving capital around. This man has never intended to spend the rest of his life with you.”
“It’s not certain that the money is from Zhenyi Company!””Are you still defending him?”
“Not quite, I’m just speaking up for him!”
“Ayun, in my opinion, you should take this opportunity to investigate him more; he might have even more skeletons in his closet!”
“Alright!
While taking a bath, I had some time to think. After I get back to A City, I will go over the accounts.
After the bath, I changed clothes and took the organized documents to his door.
He was on the phone at the moment…
The soundproofing of this house was excellent, not a single noise from outside seeped in, so I could clearly hear the voice coming from his phone.
It was Ye Mengyan who called…
It seemed like Ye Mengyan was testing his heart!
Having been Gu Yuanzhou’s secret lover for four years, did she want to go official now?
After a while, 1 entered the room only when Gu Yuanzhou had hung up the phone.
Gu Yuanzhou seemed unaffected by Ye Mengyan. His expression was calm…
“President Gu, here’s our itinerary for the whole day! All the potential investments are listed here for your review! ”
Gu Yuanzhou casually glanced at the chart I handed him before throwing it back at me.
“That’s not what I need!”
“President Gu, I don’t understand.’
“Rank all the prospective investments by return on investment! ”
I was shocked by his strict demands for an assistant.
However, fortunately, with my years of experience in the business world, this won’t be a problem for me.
Actually, I roughly analyzed some data when I gathered this information earlier, so I had a clear understanding of what’s worth investing and what’s merely hype.
I sat down, picked up a pen, and ranked these projects by the rate of return, from one star to five stars, for him.
With a second look, Gu Yuanzhou finally showed satisfaction in his eyes. “Why choose the fast-moving consumer goods (FMCG) industry?”
“Recently, sales from streaming services have shown high potential. The factories I selected are quite innovative. It we acquire them and collaborate with top streamers, I believe we’ll see returns soon.”
“What about the real estate industry? It has been a hot industry for the past few years, but you’ve only given it one star?”
“The heyday for high-end real estate has passed… It’s past its peak… Investing in real estate now, apart from draining the funds, would lead to difficulties like an inability to cash out easily.”
He seemed quite satisfied with my analysis, “You may go rest now!” “What do you think of my analysis, President Gu?”
He didn’t answer my question. Instead, he stared at me for quite a while.
His gaze was similar to when he suddenly called me to his office a few days ago.
It was probing, as if he wanted to see something from me.
After some time, instead of answering my question, he simply instructed me,
“Go, get some rest!”
I was really ready to sleep.
For I had a more important task to undertake later in the night.
At 12:30 midnight, I woke up to the alarm I had set and quickly got up, freshened up and got ready to go out.
To avoid being recognized, I put on a mask and a cap and walked into a shady internet cafe.
In fact, the easiest place to find such an internet cafe in a city is near a school, as you don’t need to present any ID to use the internet there.
Though the cafe was crowded at this time, everyone was immersed in their games and paid no attention to me.
1 threw a hundred towards the bar, found a single-room computer, turned it on, used the portable disk 1 had brought along for a VPN, changed my ID, and broke into Mrs. Zhou’s email.
This email address was given to me by Director Zhou…
Half an hour later, I indeed found some shocking photos in the email.
I never realized that wealthy people could be so extravagant.
This Mrs. Zhou was actually keeping a top male star as a kept man. The multitude of bed photos were simply unbearable to look at, I felt nauseated after just a few glances.
I copied and pasted these photos, then forwarded them to Director Zhou.
Half an hour later, I was done.
Cleared the browsing history…
Suddenly, the cafe went dark, and gamers started asking the server, “What’s going on?”
The server was sweating profusely, trying to placate the gamers while troubleshooting.
Three minutes later, all the computers in the internet cafe automatically restarted, and all the lights came back on. I pulled down my cap, smiled, and walked out of the internet cafe.
What they didn’t know was that during the short few minutes, I had reinstalled the operating system of the internet cafe’s main computer.
The surveillance camera and the computer software would no longer contain traces of me.
After finishing all that, I returned to the hotel apartment. As soon as I walked in the door, I bumped into Gu Yuanzhou!
