After dinner, Zhou Xiao and Shen Wei made a video call. She had already arrived in Qingjiang, but she couldn't find the victim.
With Guan Manjing, whether Shen Wei can find the victim is not so important anymore, it doesn't matter if she can't find it, it can be regarded as icing on the cake if she finds it.
At that time, someone will support it, right?
Zhou Xiao didn't persuade her to go back, since she's already here anyway, and it's good to find the victim.
In case Guan Manjing's temporary defection, having these victims is equivalent to a layer of protection.
There is nothing else to do.
Zhou Xiao went downstairs to the study and borrowed some books from Peng Yu to read.
Haven't stepped into the study yet.
Peng Yu in the study raised his eyelids slightly, but didn't look at him directly, "What's the matter?"
"Borrow two books."
"No borrowing."
"Why?"
"I just don't want to lend it to you."
"Do you think I'm not good enough for Li Jingwen, so you want to break us up?" Zhou Xiao wanted to ask this question a long time ago.
"break up?"
Peng Yu sneered.
"Did you use the wrong words, and you two don't have a relationship, how can you break it up?"
"We are just friends." Zhou Xiao said.
"There are no friends like you in the world, you two are almost stuck together!"
Peng Yu was angry.
Sure enough, I am very concerned about this.
Zhou Xiao asked: "Speaking of which, I have never known what is the relationship between you and Sister Jingwen?"
"friend."
"Where are there friends like you in the world? If I didn't know that Jing Wen's sexual orientation is normal, I would even doubt you"
The words are not finished.
The book in Peng Yu's hand has been thrown over.
Zhou Xiao avoided it nimbly, and still had time to look at the book that was thrown over, "Good guy, such a thick book!"
If such a thick book was dropped, it would probably cause minor injuries.
"Sister, are you going to kill me?"
After saying this to Peng Yu, Zhou Xiao withdrew from the study to avoid being accidentally injured.
The first book was thrown over, and the second book survived.
Peng Yu didn't seem so angry anymore.
She said: "My dad is also her dad."
"Half father?" Zhou Xiao was startled.
"almost."
"Why did you tell me?"
"I admit, I look down on you a little bit, just like Jingwen, even if you come from the junior class of Yanda University and Imperial University, you have to enter the house on your knees, but you are a mud leg, but you can enter the house with your head held high. It made me very upset."
She glared at Zhou Xiao, making no secret of her hostility.
"So, it's a miracle that I can live here?"
"almost."
"Then why don't you kick me out now?"
"Jingwen's vision is better than mine." She whispered.
Very low very low.
Not willing to admit Zhou Xiao's excellence.
"What?"
"roll!"
Peng Yu smashed another book out.
Just throw it over casually, never reaching Zhou Xiao at all.
"Does Sister Jingwen know?"
"I know, I don't know."
""
Zhou Xiao probably understood.
Li Jingwen accepted Peng Yu's kindness so easily, maybe it was because she already knew about their relationship, but she didn't want to say it herself, and she didn't want others to know that she acquiesced to this relationship.
"So you don't mention this matter in front of her, understand?"
"Lend me a book."
"The two books on the ground are enough for you to read." Peng Yu said.
Zhou Xiao bent down and picked it up.
Seeing the title of the book, Zhou Xiao raised his head and asked Peng Yu, "Is it specially chosen for me?"
Peng Yu didn't speak.
Not speaking is the default.
"Thanks."
"Slow down."
Zhou Xiao stopped walking away.
A bank card flew over.
"Five million." Peng Yu said, "Guan Manjing's five million, you plan to give it to Jingwen, right? ??
Zhou Xiao didn't say a word, and he also tacitly agreed.
"These five million, I will pay you back for her."
"If it wasn't for her, when the Yirenzhuang incident broke out, my company would have a big problem. Needless to say, five million, I would give her ten million."
Zhou Xiao didn't pick up the bank card.
"Then it will be our cooperation fund." Peng Yu said.
"That's not necessary."
"Then I'll give you a watch."
Peng Yu took the next best thing and took out a watch from the drawer.
This time I didn't throw it over.
Zhou Xiao picked up the card and walked over.
If you don't want to take something today, it seems that you can't go, so just take one and see if this watch is something expensive.
Put down the card and pick up the watch.
This is an old watch, and it doesn't look particularly expensive.
"How much is this thing worth?" Zhou Xiao asked.
"When I first bought it, it was more than one million."
More than one million.
This is good.
Zhou Xiao put it on his wrist and showed it to Peng Yu, "Can I go?"
Peng Yu nodded slightly.
Leaving the study and going up to the second floor.
Lying on the bed reading a book, the watch was thrown on the table beside the bed.
Sudden.
The door was pushed open.
It's Li Jingwen.
Now she enters the door without taboo at all, without knocking on the door or checking the time, she just came in so casually.
Zhou Xiao didn't bother to say this, he raised his eyes and continued to read.
Li Jingwen put a cup of tea for him, saw the watch on his table, and asked, "Where did this watch come from?"
"What's wrong?"
"Peng Yu gave it to you?" Li Jingwen asked.
"Um."
"That's all right."
Li Jingwen left again, coming and going in a hurry.
Zhou Xiao became curious.
Li Jingwen is such a big star, what kind of good things have I never seen before, why am I so surprised when I see such an old thing?
Still snorted?
Check it out online.
Zhou Xiao turned on his phone, took a photo, and searched directly online.
This watch is very old, almost ten years ago, but it is very commemorative. It was indeed more than one million ten years ago.
Now the words.
"one two three four¡¡"
Zhou Xiao counted the following zeros.
Seven zeros.
Twenty million!
""
""
Still go back.
Be sure to return it.
Zhou Xiao picked up his watch and went downstairs directly. When he rushed to the study, Peng Yu was no longer in the study, only the maid was cleaning up.
"Where's Peng Yu?" Zhou Xiao asked the maid.
"I went out and said I'm busy these two days, so I won't be back."
This is hiding.
It must be hiding!
"By the way, Mr. Zhou, I left you a note."
The maid handed over the note.
On it are Peng Yu's very beautiful words, "The benefits Jingwen got from you are far more than 20 million, and the profits I can get from you are far more than 20 million. You don't need to accept it, but I will definitely not accept it." don't want."
Zhou Xiao smiled wryly.
In the end, he was tricked by this person.
No matter.
Zhou Xiao put the watch on his wrist again.
If you can wear a watch worth 20 million yuan, you can also say that we are a successful person.
"By the way, Mr. Zhou, this is the book list Sister Yu gave you. I have sorted out all the books on the book list, and they are all here."
The maid displays the bookshelf on the left.
The bookshelves are filled with books specially selected by Peng Yu for Zhou Xiao.
To put it bluntly, every book will have a profound impact on Zhou Xiao's future.
"Does this mean you are raising me as a brother-in-law?" Zhou Xiao thought in his heart, only smiling wryly. (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
