330 Clairvoyance
Gu Yu’s bodyguards were not the only ones in the corridor. Mao Songping’s subordinates were also in the corridor. Seeing Gu Yu wave her hand, everyone understood and walked to the other side of the corridor, hiding far away.
“There’s no one else around me. Speak.” Gu Yu spoke into the phone again and frowned, “What is it that you’re afraid of being heard?”
“Actually, there’s nothing much…” Zhou Mingfei muttered to himself. He was thinking about what he could reveal to Gu Yu and what he could not.
“What are you doing? Why are you dragging your words?” Gu Yu urged. She had a good relationship with Zhou Mingfei, so she spoke casually.
“Do you know about that matter of mine?” Zhou Mingfei said.
“I know, I’m getting it done for you. Don’t worry, I’ll definitely settle it for you,” Gu Yu said. They were talking about Zhou Mingfei’s impending trouble. Zhou Mingfei had already made a pretty bad arrangement for this matter. He was just short of burning down and destroying the Lihao Ballroom. Surrounding all aspects of this matter, Zhou Mingfei also used his connections to deal with some small problems that he could solve. The big problems would be left to the Zhou family to solve later.
Recently, Zhou Mingfei had been frequently calling Gu Yu in order to ask her to help him solve some small problems. Therefore, Gu Yu knew about it, and she knew it very well.
“What’s wrong? Does this have anything to do with your sister-in-law?” Gu Yu asked.
“My sister-in-law was the one who told me,” replied Zhou Mingfei.
“What? What do you mean by your sister-in-law was the one who told you?” Gu Yu did not understand.
“Everything! Everything that I’ve been investigating! My sister-in-law told me all about it!” Zhou Mingfei said.
Gu Yu was suddenly silent. She was first stunned, then confused. Finally, she asked, “Everything? Then how did your sister-in-law know? Do you know what kind of background she has?”
“Her family runs a noodle shop,” Zhou Mingfei said.
“A noodle shop? Is it the code name of some organization?” Gu Yu didn’t understand.
“No, it’s exactly what it means. Her family runs a noodle shop in a small county, and she’s from an ordinary family,” Zhou Mingfei explained.
“And you… you just believe it?” Gu Yu was shocked.
“Of course, I don’t believe it, and my father doesn’t believe it either, but we can’t find anything about my sister-in-law’s background at all. Her family background is really just like that. If she has other backgrounds, even our Zhou family can’t find out anything about it…” After Zhou Mingfei finished speaking, Gu Yu fell silent again. She had to take a break as there was a lot of information to process.
“My sister-in-law has also visited my father. Because of my big brother’s matter, she had a private discussion with my father,” Zhou Mingfei said.
“And then?” Gu Yu immediately asked.
“After that… my father seemed to have come to some sort of agreement with my sister-in-law. I don’t know what’s the arrangement. My father didn’t tell me, and my father didn’t even tell my big brother. But I feel that… because of my sister-in-law, my dad’s attitude towards the Shao family has changed. I even had a phone call with my father this morning, and my father didn’t explain it clearly to me. He just wanted me to listen to my sister-in-law. There are some things that I can’t tell you, but it involves my big brother and Shao Ying. The things that have happened in City Z recently are quite complicated…” Zhou Mingfei found it difficult to tell Gu Yu all of his feelings.
However, Gu Yu still understood a lot about what he was saying. Jiang Tong had once talked to Zhou Anguo privately and neither of them even let Zhou Mingfei and Zhou Jingyun know what they were talking about…? As for what exactly happened, Gu Yu could not imagine… but the meaning of Zhou Mingfei’s words was very clear. His attitude and tone made Gu Yu feel that he was really a little afraid of his sister-in-law. Would Zhou Mingfei be afraid of a young woman who was younger than him by four years and had no special background?! To h*ll with ordinary family! To h*ll with running a noodle shop!
“Gu Yu, do you believe that someone can predict the future?” Zhou Mingfei suddenly asked Gu Yu.
“Eh? What?” Gu Yu didn’t seem to hear him clearly. After a while, she said in a strange tone, “Are you saying that your sister-in-law…”
“I’m not sure if it’s… but it’s just… ugh! Just don’t mess with my sister-in-law or make her upset. And be polite to her. You’ll understand after you spend more time with her. I’ve asked my sister-in-law about what you told me before, and she said it was a misunderstanding. Don’t worry, it’s fine.” After Zhou Mingfei finished speaking, Gu Yu didn’t make a move for a long time. She was a little frightened by Zhou Mingfei’s words. Zhou Mingfei’s earlier words were quite scary, and in the end, he even suggested some metaphysics idea!
“You guys can go ahead and have a talk. It’ll be fine. It should be alright since I’m in the picture… unless you offend my sister-in-law. You guys can talk. If there’s anything, let me know.” As Zhou Mingfei spoke, he sounded like he was going to hang up the call.
