The girl felt lucky.
She bit her lips and said, “Mr. Gu, let’s… Let’s go to the room at the back.”
Gu Yimo was screaming internally.
Why? He was supposed to be in the laboratory organizing the report last week. Why had he ended up like this?
He really wanted to run, but he couldn’t help holding it in when he thought about the doubling of funding. Many of the equipment in the laboratory were old, and he couldn’t bear to change them. He could replace all of them next year.
“Um… Did you get your money?” Gu Yimo said awkwardly. “Didn’t you say that if you don’t get your money… you… you won’t…?”
The girl was dazed for a bit, and then she blushed and said, “I’ve received the message.”
“Okay,” Gu Yimo answered and started counting the ants.
“Mr. Gu, do… do you think I’m shameless?” The girl bit her lips.
“No, everyone’s here to sell their bodies,” Gu Yimo said without hesitation. “But my price is higher than yours.”
The girl was completely dumbfounded. ‘What… What is going on? Is Mr. Gu a fool?’
She asked, “How much are you selling your body for?”
“Oh, at least 40 million,” Gu Yimo said happily.
The girl’s lips parted, and she said, “That… That’s much higher than me.”
Gu Yimo was dazed as well. She finally realized how weird that conversation was.
There was an awkward silence in the room.
…
On the other side, Ye Shengge finally understood everything.
“I won’t allow you to take the risk.” She hugged him tightly, feeling terrified. “I don’t care what you do. This is my only request.”
Ji Shiting stroked her back and said, “Okay, I’ll remember.”
“But are you really going to send Gu Yimo to investigate?” Ye Shengge was worried. “He’s really a technological geek. This is making things difficult for him…”
“At least he’s watched a lot of adult videos.” Ji Shiting curled his lips. “I believe in his potential.”
Ye Shengge suddenly recalled the strange voice she had heard when she had called him that day…
It was Gu Yimo!
She couldn’t help chuckling. “Then send him. Anyway, just don’t go.”
The man grabbed her hand and chuckled, “I’ll take a shower first in case you get impatient.”
“I’m not in a hurry.” Ye Shengge snorted and turned her face away.
It was about her dignity, so she wouldn’t take the initiative tonight unless he asked for it.
Ji Shiting smirked and turned around to go to the bathroom.
Ye Shengge took the chance to call Qianfan Villa and tell Sister Xiu that she wouldn’t be going back tonight. She then video-called the two kids.
At this time, the two kids had finished washing up. They were wearing pajamas, and their heads were in front of the camera. They were adorable.
“Where are you, Mom?”
“Are you on a business trip again, Mom?”
“No. I’m going to stay in a hotel.” Ye Shengge couldn’t help smiling as she recalled the two kids’ prank. “Are you hiding something from me?”
They looked at each other and shook their heads. “No.”
Ye Shengge didn’t expose them, but her smile intensified.
At this moment, the man said, “Who are you talking to?”
…
