Married to My Ex-Fiancé's Cousin-Chapter 758 Mr. Qi Sr.’s Tactics_1

"You figured that out too?" Gu You hadn’t expected him to guess so easily and admired him. "You’re amazing!"

"Your fingers told me."

Gu You extended her hand and looked at it. Her hand was very beautiful, and her fingers were long, but because she had been drawing for a long time, her fingers were covered in thick calluses.

She asked uneasily, "Do you think my hands are unattractive?"

Bai Liyan picked up the purified water that had just been brought in, took a sip, and looked at Gu You. "Do you care a lot about what others think of your hands?"

"There are always shallow people in this world who think that way!" Gu You stared at her hand for a long time. "But... I don’t think my hands are unattractive at all. I’m a comic artist. I’ve been drawing for a long time, so my hands became like this. I’m very passionate about my work, and the marks left on my hands give me a great sense of accomplishment."

"Oh."

"It seems you’re not very interested in other people’s matters." Seeing Bai Liyan’s reserved demeanor, Gu You said, "Let’s not talk about me. Let’s talk about you! What do you do?"

Bai Liyan was just about to speak when Gu You interrupted, "Don’t say it yet. Let me guess?"

"Go ahead and guess." Bai Liyan listened to her patiently.

"A doctor?"

"You’re smart too."

"You told me yourself." Gu You smiled. "I really envy doctors. They’re so wealthy."

"..."

Gu You pointed to the luxury car waiting outside for Bai Liyan. "Even if I draw for a lifetime, I won’t earn that much."

Bai Liyan couldn’t help but laugh. "But you love your profession, don’t you? Being able to do what you love is the happiest thing in life."

Bai Liyan also loved his profession, but thinking back, he realized he had wasted a lot of emotions on Ji Yunhuan.

He looked at Gu You. "How did you guess I was a doctor?"

"I’ll tell you that later!"

"Later?" Bai Liyan frowned. He hadn’t considered there being a later with this stranger.

"What? You don’t want to be friends with me? Then forget it. Just treat it as a secret!"

On the way home, Bai Liyan had the driver take Gu You home first. She lived in a not-so-luxurious neighborhood. Gu You looked at Bai Liyan, "Do you want to come up for a bit?"

"I won’t intrude." Bai Liyan couldn’t believe he had talked so much with a stranger.

Gu You smiled at him. "Then I’ll go. See you."

She got out of the car and waved at Bai Liyan from the window. His gaze lingered on her warm smile.

...

Because she had to take care of the kids at home recently, Ji Yunhuan hadn’t been to the company much. Lin Zheng came to the house to report Lin Zhenyu’s situation to Ji Yunhuan. "Recently, she has messed up a few of our major clients again. I’ve never seen a woman like this! Who knows what she wants to achieve? We originally wanted to cooperate with RE Mobile for promotion, but because of her interference, we lost that opportunity."

Xingkong Games was in the mobile game business, and RE was currently one of the largest domestic mobile brands. A partnership to have their games pre-installed for promotion would be significant.

Who would’ve thought...

"It’s okay," Ji Yunhuan said. "Don’t worry about it. We just need to focus on making good games! Without RE, we can find other partners."

Opportunities in this world were endless!

Even with Lin Zhenyu’s suppression, Xingkong Games still had a good growth outlook. Besides, Ji Yunhuan believed Lin Zhenyu wouldn’t be complacent for long.

Sure enough, before the second sister-in-law was discharged, trouble arose on Zhou Yixiu’s side.

In the morning, after finishing breakfast, Ji Yunhuan watched the news for a while.

When she saw the news, her eyes widened. "No way!"

Qi Cheng was holding Ruirui in his arms. "What is it?"

Ji Yunhuan sat next to Qi Cheng with her tablet, showing him the news. "Is this Zhou Yixiu?"

Although the name wasn’t mentioned, Ji Yunhuan could tell from the news that it was him.

Qi Cheng glanced at the news. "Who else could it be?"

-

At the Zhou Residence, Zhou Yixiu hadn’t slept for almost a day and night. Since the news broke, he had been dealing with this issue continuously. However, it was clear that the Qi Family wanted to take this opportunity to destroy him, giving him no chance to recover.

Zhou Yixiu sat on the living room sofa, watching the news report and gritting his teeth. His hands clenched together. Secretary Wu looked at him from the side. "This matter is causing quite a stir. The authorities are already asking questions. What should we do?"

Zhou Yixiu remained silent. What could he do? What else could he do?

An issue this big couldn’t be suppressed.

Even if he wanted to suppress it, would Qi Cheng let him? Would the Qi Family let him off?

Although his grandfather had publicly sided with him last time he tangled with Qi Cheng, everyone knew the old Qi man always had the most affection for his family. Expecting him to genuinely support an outsider was impossible.

A servant approached holding a cordless phone. "Sir, the old gentleman is calling."

Zhou Yixiu took the phone. As soon as it was near his ear, he heard his father’s angry voice. "What’s wrong with you? You just took office and now this?"

"What else could it be?" Zhou Yixiu replied. "It’s just the Qi Family trying to frame me, setting me up deliberately."

He had to admit, Qi Cheng was more capable than he had imagined, and more ruthless.

He used to think that Qi Cheng, who never stepped into this circle, wouldn’t be more challenging to deal with than his older brother and grandfather. Who knew...

Such malicious tactics... Even his older brother wouldn’t have thought of them!

The old man didn’t sympathize with Zhou Yixiu. He shouted angrily, "I don’t know what to say to you. Why did you mess with the Qi Family for no reason? Dismissal is certain this time. Even I can’t save you! Think about it yourself!"

Zhou Yixiu had caused such trouble. It was a miracle that his father hadn’t been implicated.

Zhou Yixiu pinched his nose. He had climbed to his current position in almost eight years, yet now, within a few months, he was on the brink of being forced out.

Zhou Yixiu held the disconnected phone, his anger growing until it overflowed. At the critical point, he smashed the phone furiously. The person just entering from outside picked up the phone and looked at the usually composed yet currently furious Zhou Yixiu, his lips curling slightly. "Brother, why are you so angry?"

Seeing who had arrived, Zhou Yixiu felt his stomach ache intensify.

The servant and Secretary Wu greeted cautiously, "Second young master."

Zhou Jinlian walked over. Zhou Yixiu sat back on the sofa, glaring at him. "Why are you here?"
