Gu Juexi decided not to speak as anything he said might be used against him if this went on.
Rather than wasting time on pointless arguments, he may as well investigate who the mysterious culprit was.
That person did an excellent job of deleting the footage. It was a daunting task to reconstruct the missing portion even if Gu Juexi found the original video. At the very least, it could be confirmed that the person was a computer genius who could rival Gu Juexi.
For the first time in forever, Gu Juexi stumbled upon an enemy in the shadows.
The only thing Gu Juexi could do right now was assign more bodyguards to protect Ye Yuwei. He had to protect her from the enemy lurking in the dark.
Especially now since the school anniversary celebration was just around the corner. He had sacrificed a lot of time and effort preparing the proposal, and no one could ruin it for him.
Gu Juexi didn’t return to his office. He spent his time at Ye Yuwei’s office, waiting for her to get off work.
While she was working, Gu Juexi tried to reconstruct the deleted footage using Ye Yuwei’s laptop.
This time, he was facing an adept opponent. He tried a lot of methods but to no avail.
The more challenging the problem was, the more exciting it was for Gu Juexi. He spent all afternoon investigating the person.
At 5 p.m., Gu Juexi had successfully hacked into the person’s ID. Gu Juexi was taken by surprise as the screen went black abruptly. He stopped typing altogether, his hands slowly retracting from the keyboard.
Gu Juexi leaned back against the sofa while watching the blank screen glitch ever so slightly. Slowly, a blurred image filled the screen.
The image was vaguely visible, but he could make out a pair of eyes with bloody tears and empty sockets.
As quickly as it appeared, the image disappeared and three seconds later, the screen returned to normal. He had still failed in restoring the video.
It didn’t already matter to Gu Juexi.
This was a warning, but the warning was directed at him, not Ye Yuwei.
The flower pot was simply a smokescreen, the person’s main objective was to show Gu Juexi the eyeless image.
But what was the warning about? Why? Gu Juexi hadn’t got a clue.
It was 5.30 p.m., time for Ye Yuwei to get off work. When she looked up, Gu Juexi was leaning sluggishly against the sofa like he was spineless. His lazy posture suggested he was resting and struggling with his thoughts at the same time.
Ye Yuwei shut down her computer and got off her chair. “PA Wen is a newlywed, don’t you feel sorry for letting him work so hard for you? What can possibly happen to me in the office?”
Gu Juexi opened his eyes when he heard her voice and peered at the woman who was packing her bag. He flipped the laptop shut and threw it on the table. “He will leave for his honeymoon in a few days. I will be left alone then, won’t I?”
Ye Yuwei squinted at him in annoyance. Was this what they called a bad boss?
Gu Juexi and Ye Yuwei exited her office together. The remaining staff in the office stood up out of respect when they saw Gu Juexi but they were ignored as he walked straight to the elevator.
Ye Yuwei touched her nose and watched Gu Juexi press the elevator button for her. He would maintain his composure when he was in public.
Gu Juexi had parked his car at the underground parking lot. Due to the incident, Gu Juexi paid closer attention to their surroundings as he went to the car with Ye Yuwei.
Ye Yuwei tossed her bag into the back seat and used the rubber band on her wrist to tie up her shoulder-length hair.
Gu Juexi reversed his car. Ye Yuwei glanced at him and said, “I’m thinking of a person.”
Gu Juexi’s gaze fell on her briefly. He exited the parking lot and drove towards the highway.
The glance made Ye Yuwei shudder slightly and feel guilty.
