67: Principled Feng Jun and Chen Fan’s bold conjecture!
Coming out of the bank, Chen Beixuan had an extra bag in front of him.
Inside were 500,000 yuan in deposit, weighing over ten catties, heavy when lifted.
The agreed meeting place was a cat cafe, and he arrived half an hour early.
His wheelchair couldn't go inside, so he simply sat in the sunroom outside.
Various meows sounded non-stop, and even a few bold Hakimis jumped onto his wheelchair.
The two sides faced off for a few minutes, and finally, Chen Beixuan conceded defeat.
After buying some cat food from the staff, he found a corner to play with the cats.
Time passed minute by minute, the cat food in his hand grew less and less, but no one came.
He couldn't help but feel a little suspicious.
Hiring a private detective felt like a gang transaction, was it reliable or not?
According to Lu Ziming, this detective agency had exposed many celebrity scandals.
It had a high reputation and was very trustworthy in the circle of second-generation rich kids, as for why?
Perhaps it was because the rich kids had bought various celebrities' location information, and liked to stage 'accidental' encounters to pick them up.
Chen Beixuan glanced at his watch; there were still a few minutes left.
Besides the cat cafe staff, there was no one else present.
He waited patiently, and soon it was exactly 4 o'clock.
Just as he thought the other party wouldn't come.
The employee who was scooping cat litter nearby suddenly stood up and came to his side.
"Hello, I'm Feng Jun. Did you bring your deposit?"
Chen Beixuan: ???
He was stunned for a long moment.
He looked confused.
"No, you were clearly here, why did you have to wait until 4 o'clock to show up?"
"I have my principles. Punctuality is essential. Please respect my principles," Feng Jun said expressionlessly.
"Crazy..."
With a thud, the bag was thrown onto the chair.
Chen Beixuan said with a headache.
"This is a 500,000 yuan deposit, for ten days of surveillance."
Feng Jun opened the bag, glanced inside, and then picked it up.
"Please choose the reporting time, reporting phone number, and whether there is a backup phone number?"
"Seven PM, using the previous phone number."
"OK, the transaction is complete. You can go back now."
"Can I buy information about employers from you? Any price is fine," Chen Beixuan suddenly asked before leaving.
Feng Jun squatted down, scooped up a pile of cat poop, and shook his head indifferently.
"I have my principles. No amount of money will do."
Chen Beixuan nodded thoughtfully, then turned and started his wheelchair to leave.
He liked people with principles.
But he had never seen anyone as principled as Feng Jun before.
There were only two people in the shop, and he waited for half an hour before revealing his identity.
It's hard to comment...
......
As dusk fell.
Zhang family's villa.
Chen Fan and Liu Ruyun shamelessly chatted here until evening.
They talked about everything under the sun, even how many female employees the company had.
Finally, Mrs. Zhang could no longer bear it and asked them to leave.
"Excuse me, Old Zhang is about to come back, and I still need to cook. Why don't you two head back first?"
"Ah... alright then, Sister-in-law, you're busy, we'll be going now."
Seeing that she had laid it bare, Chen Fan also found it inappropriate to stay any longer.
Bang—
The door opened and closed.
The two stood at the doorway, sobered up a bit by the cold wind blowing in their faces.
"Husband, why do I feel like Mrs. Zhang was a little unhappy?"
"Did we chat for a bit too long...?"
Liu Ruyun recalled Mrs. Zhang's expression before closing the door; she clearly looked relieved.
"No, Sister-in-law isn't like that. Look how well we chatted today; she'll definitely put in a good word for us with Mr. Zhang later."
"These relationships, they're all built up little by little, you don't understand anything..."
Chen Fan fiddled with a few strands of his bangs in the car window in the courtyard, frowning slightly.
"Strange, why am I starting to lose hair recently...?"
Liu Ruyun looked at his flippant demeanor and felt troubled.
It was obvious the other person was unhappy, but this idiot couldn't even tell.
How did she ever become so blind as to fall for this kind of person?
Was it just because he had yellow hair?
Sigh, she was still too young back then.
Love makes one satisfied with just water...
Stupid, too stupid!
If it weren't for her daughter, she would even want a divorce.
But her daughter was still young and couldn't be without a father.
Just make do, what else can she do...
"You, you just get angry too easily, it's making you lose hair."
"From now on, you need to learn to be more emotionally stable, okay?"
Liu Ruyun stepped forward and linked her arm through his, her eyes full of affection.
Chen Fan felt a tingling sensation all over from her gaze and was quite susceptible to this approach.
"Alright, alright, I'll listen to you, let's go home."
The two walked out of the villa courtyard and headed towards the exit.
There were many small paths in the villa area, like a grid separating the villas.
At a turn, Chen Fan looked back and was instantly frozen in place.
Liu Ruyun walked a couple of steps forward, and seeing that he hadn't moved, she turned back to ask.
"Husband, why aren't you walking?"
Chen Fan didn't speak, just rubbed his eyes hard and looked into the distance.
"Huh, was I seeing things?"
"What are you saying, Husband? Did you see something?"
Liu Ruyun looked into the distance, a hint of confusion appearing on her pretty face.
Chen Fan shook his head.
"I must have been mistaken. Just now, an old man in a wheelchair looked exactly like that old geezer from my family..."
"You must be mistaken. How could your father appear here? Are you crazy...?"
Chen Fan slapped his forehead, thinking excitedly.
"Do you think it's possible that my father is actually a rich person, and he's been pretending to be poor all these years just to cultivate my tenacious spirit?"
..."Neurotic, you've watched too many short dramas, haven't you...?"
Liu Ruyun rolled her eyes, sighed, and turned to continue walking.
Chen Fan stared into the distance, that silhouette reappearing in his mind.
It felt like he was about to grasp something, yet he grasped nothing at all...
"It seemed like an electric wheelchair. That old geezer probably couldn't afford it. Maybe I really was mistaken..."
He shook his head, temporarily no longer thinking about it.
"Hey, wife, wait for me...!"
Chen Fan hurriedly chased after her...
......
"Woah, woah, woah, Grandpa's back!"
Xiao Lu jumped up from the sofa and rushed towards Chen Beixuan... and the toy in his hand.
"Wow, a Barbie doll set! Thank you, Grandpa!"
Chen Beixuan smiled and opened his arms, but waited in vain.
Xiao Lu had already run off like a flash, hugging the box...
Zhou Xiuya, who had just finished cooking, happened to see this scene and smiled.
"Xiao Lu, it's time to eat. You can play after you eat."
After speaking, she turned to Chen Beixuan, smiling and nodding in greeting.
"Mr. Chen, you're back. Dinner is ready, we can eat anytime."
"Okay, I'll wash my hands and be right there. Thank you for your hard work."
Chen Beixuan replied with a smile and went to the bathroom to wash his hands.
Villas truly were different; even the bathroom door was much wider, making it convenient for him to enter and exit.
After dinner, Zhou Xiuya accompanied Xiao Lu in the living room, playing with Barbie dolls.
He, meanwhile, returned to his room to browse the official forum.
As soon as he entered the forum, the most prominent area was the promotional poster for the first National League.
It listed information such as the league time, registration method, competition mode, and so on.
And the most important thing was the grand prize of the league, with generous rewards!
Seeing this, Chen Beixuan became interested and clicked to examine it in detail...
