Accidentally Married to the Big Shot-Chapter 88 - Sent a Mole
Chapter 88 -88 Sent a Mole
“Just short of throwing yourself at him, and you should also wipe the drool from the corner of your mouth.”
“I’m not drooling, am I?” Zhou Yuan sucked in her saliva; to wipe it, she would have to let go, but she was dancing with him at the moment.
“Big brother, I heard you don’t have a girlfriend yet? Why is that? You’re already 36, why not find a girlfriend?”
Gu Cheng said, “You’re quite the gossip for someone so young.”
“My dad says that gossiping is human nature and there’s nothing wrong with admitting that you’re curious.”
“Your dad really is quite the gossip.” Gu Cheng knew Mr. Zhou well; it was Mr. Zhou who spilled the beans about Su Meixi being pursued in Guang City.
...
Zhou Yuan then blinked and said, “My dad also said that the purpose of today’s banquet is actually to set you up on a blind date. Have you seen anyone you like?”
“Not at all,” Gu Cheng replied without hesitation.
“What do you think of me then?” Zhou Yuan asked with a smile that curved her eyes.
Gu Cheng glanced at her and said, “Not much.”
“What kind of person do you like?”
“Are you of age?”
“Of age, yeah. I’m even at the legal age to get married.”
“You’re too young.”
“Not young at all, I’m a C-cup.” Zhou Yuan was a girl with a large chest.
Gu Cheng looked down and caught a glimpse of the cleavage at her neckline.
He let go of her: “I’m not interested in a greenhorn like you.”
“How about we add each other on WeChat?” Zhou Yuan asked.
“There’s no need.”
He let go of her and returned to his original spot.
Zhou Yuan couldn’t help feeling extremely dejected.
Mr. Zhou saw her performance and shook his head helplessly.
In fact, they all privately thought Gu Cheng was a man without desires, uninterested in women. Over the years, numerous beautiful and intelligent women had pursued him, and he had rejected every one of them without exception.
His own daughter was simply overestimating herself.
…
On the way back, Zhou Yuan had a sorrowful look on her face.
Leaning on the passenger seat, she said, “Dad, I feel like I’ve been dumped.”
“You like Mr. Gu?”
“He thinks I’m too young, he wouldn’t even add me on WeChat.”
“I also think the two of you are not suitable. He wouldn’t be interested in you.”
“Dad, what are you saying? Am I that bad?”
“The two of you just don’t click.” Mr. Zhou felt it was good to dampen his daughter’s spirits a bit, so she wouldn’t aim too high.
If she really married Gu Cheng, wouldn’t he become Gu Cheng’s father-in-law? How could such good fortune be his turn?
Besides, to be Gu Cheng’s father-in-law…
Forget it, then Gu Cheng would seem like the father-in-law, and he would be like the son-in-law. Better to let Zhou Yuan find a man of equal standing, and let the son-in-law take care of him.
Zhou Yuan then said, “Dad, I’ve been dumped, I want to go out and clear my head.”
“Alright, where do you want to go? I’ll have my secretary book you a flight.”
Zhou Yuan said, “I’m going to see Sister Su.”
Mr. Zhou widened his eyes: “…”
…
Zhou Yuan still came.
After three flights and a local ride-share, a whole day of travel later, she finally appeared in front of Su Meixi.
It was the fourth day of the new year.
Su Meixi was on duty at the clinic, and when she saw Zhou Yuan, she was stunned for a moment, thinking she had recognized the wrong person.
“Zhou Yuan? How did you get here?”
Zhou Yuan said excitedly, “I came following the location you posted.”
“I’m asking you, why did you come here?”
Zhou Yuan said with a smile, “I’ve been dumped and came to clear my head. Sister Su, you must take me in, I’m so pitiful.”
“You’ve been dumped again? Which guy had such poor taste?”
“Ah!” Zhou Yuan sighed, not daring to tell Su Meixi that she had wanted to become their sister-in-law.
If she could really become Sister Su’s sister-in-law, that would be so cool!
The clinic didn’t have any spare rooms, so Su Meixi could only arrange for Zhou Yuan to stay at a hotel in town.
This was also Su Meixi’s first visit to the hotel in this town. The room was quite simple, overall it appeared drab and plain. Worried that Zhou Yuan wouldn’t be comfortable, she went out to buy a new blanket for her.
Fortunately, Zhou Yuan wasn’t too fussy. If it had been someone like Gu Cheng, he would have certainly chartered a flight out that very night.
Finally, after the fuss, Su Meixi took Zhou Yuan out to eat at a restaurant.
Just as they entered, they saw Gu Wei and Xiao Ding were there too.
Zhou Yuan was immediately surprised and pointed at Gu Wei, “You… you…”
She never expected to see Gu Wei here.
Weren’t they divorced? Had they found a new place to continue living together?
When the others saw Zhou Yuan knew both Gu Wei and Su Meixi and noted her fair and delicate appearance and stylish dress, they knew she must be from Feng City.
Xiao Ding invited them, “You haven’t eaten yet? Come sit with us and eat.”
Without a word, Zhou Yuan went over and took a seat.
She still looked at Gu Wei with surprise, “Big brother, so you’re serving here?”
Gu Wei nodded.
“Then have you and Sister Su… made up?”
Gu Wei glanced at Su Meixi and said, “Ask your Sister Su.”
Zhou Yuan turned to look at Su Meixi.
Su Meixi just smiled faintly.
She suddenly felt like one of those jerks who drag out a breakup, neither fully committed nor decisive enough to cut ties.
During the meal, Zhou Yuan sneakily took a photo of Gu Wei, and another of Su Meixi.

The meal was rather enjoyable. Zhou Yuan was good at lightening the mood, and she actively asked about the military situation. Xiao Ding and Da Liu were quite warm, too, sharing everything they could, leaving Zhou Yuan both shocked and fascinated.
After dinner, as Zhou Yuan was about to leave, Gu Wei approached her, “Hand over your phone.”
“What phone?” Zhou Yuan knew Gu Wei must have realized she secretly took his pictures, so she feigned ignorance.
Gu Wei didn’t speak, just extended his hand in front of her, and under his imposing presence, Zhou Yuan reluctantly handed it over.
But Gu Wei didn’t take it, merely asking, “What are you planning to do with my picture?”
“It’s nothing really, just…” Zhou Yuan’s face reddened a bit before she added, “I wanted to show it to your brother.”
“Do you know him?”
“I met him once on New Year’s Day at your place, I have…,” Zhou Yuan’s smile curved her eyes, “an eye on becoming your sister-in-law.”
Gu Wei didn’t demand she delete the photos but warned, “Showing my brother is fine, but no one else, or you’re on your own.”
Gu Wei’s seriousness intimidated Zhou Yuan.
Back at the hotel, Zhou Yuan first got Gu Cheng’s phone number from Mr. Zhou.
She wanted to add him on WeChat, but upon entering the phone number, his WeChat didn’t show up.
So, she sent him an MMS with the photo of Gu Wei: Brother Cheng, this is Zhou Yuan, the girl who helped Ah Dai unbind that day. I ran into your brother here at the border, isn’t this fate?
No one replied.
Gu Cheng had seen the MMS, but since he knew his brother was at the border, why did he need to hear it from Zhou Yuan?
Zhou Yuan, disappointed not to receive a reply from Gu Cheng, felt a little dejected.
In the afternoon, Zhou Yuan was resting in Su Meixi’s room.
And then she saw the water bottle on Su Meixi’s table.
There was clearly a “Wei” character on it.
Was it Gu Wei’s?
Zhou Yuan pondered for a while.
Sister Su clearly said she was divorced, yet she and Gu Wei were in the same place. If they hadn’t said they were back together, could it be they were on the path to reconciliation?
She took a picture of Gu Wei’s water bottle and sent it to Gu Cheng, with the caption: I found this in Sister Su’s room.
Unexpectedly, Gu Cheng replied to her text: How are things between them now?
Zhou Yuan responded: I feel like they both like each other, it’s just that Sister Su lacks the courage to make the move.
After sending the message, she saw a WeChat friend request: I am Gu Cheng.
Overjoyed, Zhou Yuan immediately accepted.
Gu Cheng sent her a message: If you have any information about the two of them, let me know, but don’t tell anyone else.
Zhou Yuan instantly responded: I understand.
In Feng City, Gu Cheng sent the image Zhou Yuan had shared to Gu Wei, with the message: I heard that Ah Xi has always treasured your belongings.
Gu Wei saw the message later that night.
He stared at the image for a while, thinking: I didn’t expect Ah Xi to like me that much.
