Chapter 25 A Mysterious Gift
"Your own home, so I don't need to introduce it to you, right?"

Zhou Weiyi followed Bai Yanan into the house reluctantly, pretending not to hear what she said and shifted his gaze elsewhere.

Bai Yanan was not angry when being ignored, but just sighed in her heart: He should be one of the few people who resisted returning to his mansion.

If there are people here that he doesn't want to see and he doesn't want to go back, it's understandable.

But here, no.

“This thing is pretty heavy.”

While the two were talking, Uncle Qian, the housekeeper who was now in charge of the villa, was walking towards them holding a dark brown wooden box.

The wooden box is not too big, just the size of an everyday shoe box.

But judging from the effort made by Uncle Qian, who was in his forties, when he held the baby in his arms and the veins on the back of his hands bulged, it must be very heavy.

The wooden box that was brought over was placed on the expensive and exquisite custom-made coffee table by a famous designer next to the sofa.

Bai Yanan was very curious about what was inside, but she was not in a hurry to open it.

Instead, he gently nudged Zhou Weiyi, who was trying to turn a blind eye to everything, with his elbow.

"open to take a look."

Zhou Weiyi, who was named, was not very willing to take action.

Just about to refuse——

"This is something that Mr. Zhou left for you. Of course you have to open it."

This was the main reason why she coaxed and deceived him into coming back even though she knew he was unwilling to come back.

It was also when Uncle Qian called her today that she learned that Mr. Zhou had left something for Zhou Weiyi before he passed away.

As for why Zhou Weiyi had been out of the sanatorium for so long, Uncle Qian explained.

This is not Uncle Qian’s problem, everything was arranged by Mr. Zhou before he died.

According to Uncle Qian's retelling of Mr. Zhou's original words, if Zhou Weiyi could get along with her, he should hand the things over to him.

Uncle Qian didn't know why he did this, he only knew that Mr. Zhou must have his reasons for asking him to do this.

Uncle Qian felt that the two of them were getting along pretty well now, so he decided to give the things to them according to Mr. Zhou's last wishes.

Mr. Zhou never told him what was in the wooden box before he died, and Uncle Qian kept his promise and never opened it to take a look.

The three people present at the moment didn't know what was inside.

Even though he was told that it was Grandpa Zhou's intention, Zhou Weiyi had no desire to open this mysterious gift.

"It depends on you."

"How can that be possible!"

Seeing that Zhou Weiyi actually gave up the initiative to unpack the package, Bai Yanan was the first to disagree.

Although she is curious, she doesn't have the habit of taking apart other people's things without permission.

What's more, that thing was specifically given to Zhou Weiyi, so she couldn't touch it.

"It's really troublesome."

When Bai Yanan was considering pulling his hand and leaving if he continued with this attitude, Zhou Weiyi seemed to have figured it out.

Although he said he was impatient, he still pulled the buckle of the wooden box.

Bai Yanan was stretching her head to look curiously, but Zhou Weiyi closed the box immediately after she opened it a crack.

This reaction is a bit big.

"What is it?"

He closed it so quickly that she didn't even notice it.

"Nothing... nothing, just a stone."

As he spoke, he subconsciously held the box down, as if he was afraid that Bai Yanan would open it.

Mr. Zhou left him a box of stones?
Is it some special way for the grandfather and grandson to express their feelings?

Of course she was curious. Even if Zhou Weiyi didn't let her look, she wouldn't do something as disgusting as forcibly lifting it up to take a look.

It's his stuff, he has the right to decide whether to show it to others or not.

"gone back."

This person really didn't want to stay in this villa any longer, so he just got his things and left.

Bai Yanan had no idea what to do about this.

He said goodbye to Uncle Qian in a hurry and went back with him. On the way back, he held the box tightly and never let go for a moment.

The first thing he did when he got home was to take his things back to his room.

The house is so small, no matter how well he hides it, Bai Yanan can find it at any time if she wants.

So when he came out of his room after tinkering around for a long time, she jokingly asked, "Do you want me to give you another safe?"

"I can see it."

He didn't hesitate at all.

Now Bai Yanan is unsure.

"Really?"

It's not that she is stingy, but using a safe to store a few stones is a bit of a waste of resources.

If he insisted, Bai Yanan would still buy it for him.

But at this moment, he answered the question irrelevantly, "I'm hungry."

The topic was changed so casually, and the sincerity of the intention was not very high.

Bai Yanan couldn't make up her mind for a while, so she decided to eat first.

I wanted to cook something, but when I opened the refrigerator, it was cleaner than her face.

So I quietly opened a pornographic APP on my phone, which perfectly solved the problem of dining for two people.

Someone was shouting that he was hungry, but he didn't even eat a few bites.

It seems like he's had enough of the takeout.

Although Bai Yanan often felt guilty about letting such a valuable rich young man follow her to eat takeout every day, she really didn't want to cook.

Before finding a suitable auntie to cook at home, he can only bear with it for now.

The problem of eating needs to be solved, but she saw him looking at his phone behind her back after dinner.

Not surprisingly, this person is thinking about finding a job again.

She was quite afraid that he would really just find a random job and go to work.

If it's good, that's fine, but what if you're cheated?
This person has never been to work and looks easy to deceive.

It would be great if there was a job that could satisfy his desire to work and guarantee his safety... huh?

Really!
The Zhou family has their own company, so it shouldn't be a big problem to arrange a sinecure for him in their company.

In this case, I can't avoid dealing with people from the Zhou family.

She was not very willing to deal with people from the Zhou family, and she didn't want Zhou Weiyi to be cheated.

She has no other advantages except that when it comes to action, her main focus is speed.

The next day, they rushed to the headquarters of Zhou Group.

Why go directly to the company instead of going to Zhou’s house?

Of course, it’s because when it comes to work, the company is more suitable.

She went to Zhou's to look for someone, and the front desk asked her as usual if she had an appointment.

That obviously didn't happen.

But if she told the truth, she would definitely not see anyone, so she lied.

"I have already made an appointment directly with Jay Chou himself by phone."

Directors always make appointments in advance and generally do not jump the queue unless it is urgent.

The front desk didn't find any relevant information about her on the appointment form, but seeing that Bai Yanan was determined, out of caution at work, after asking about her identity, they still called Zhou Hongxin's office.

Because of what happened at the Zhou family last time, Bai Yanan was not actually sure whether Zhou Hongxin would meet her this time, so she was taking a gamble.

If he still cared about Zhou Weiyi - to be more precise, if he still cared about the Zhou shares she held, he would not have rejected her.

And she made the right bet.

After hanging up the phone, the receptionist said to her very politely, "Mr. Jay is still meeting with a client and the call won't be over soon. Please wait a moment."

Afterwards, a woman who claimed to be Zhou Hongxin's secretary came to the front desk and took her to the VIP room upstairs to rest.

After settling her down, the secretary had other things to deal with, so he left first.

Bai Yanan, who was left alone in the office, looked calm on the surface, but was actually very panicked inside.

Isn't this a bit too smooth?
It's not a scam, right?
