Although no one got out of the car, the sound of the car horn was like a warning and a reminder.
Ye Xuan didn't turn around. He didn't know whose car it was, but he also understood that it was inappropriate for him to act like this in front of the girls' dormitory.
Slowly releasing Gu Nianzhi's arm, Ye Xuan frowned and said icily, "I'm just fulfilling my promise to Uncle Gu. Don't overthink it. You're not my type at all. "With that, he turned around and left.
He passed by Huo Shaoheng's car without looking sideways at all. She didn't know if he recognized whose car it was.
Gu Nianzhi shook her arms and silently cursed, "Psycho!" Then she looked at Huo Shaoheng's SUV.
Ye Xuan quickly walked far away, his figure disappearing on the sidewalk.
Huo Shaoheng sat in the car and only got out of the car when he received news from a member of the Special Operations Forces that Ye Xuan had already left the B University campus.
Leaning against the car door with his hands in his trouser pockets, he narrowed his eyes and looked at Gu Nianzhi, who was standing on the steps of the dormitory building with a faint, relaxed smile.
Gu Nianzhi originally thought she had guessed wrong and that the person in the car wasn't Huo Shaoheng because no one got out after waiting for a long time.
Just as she was about to turn to leave, she saw the car door open and Huo Shaoheng's long legs stride out.
She watched as he stood in front of the car and closed the door behind him. Then he leaned against the door and nodded at her.
Gu Nianzhi hesitated for a moment before walking down the steps to stand in front of Huo Shaoheng. She looked up at him and said, "Huo Shao, you saw everything? Ye Xuan came to find me … "
He didn't tell Gu Nianzhi that as soon as he received news of Ye Xuan's appearance at B University, he rushed over from the base as fast as lightning. He only revealed a steady smile and said, "Why did he come to see you? Is it for Gu Yanran? "
Gu Nianzhi thought that what Ye Xuan told her must be very important to Huo Shaoheng and the others. After all, it involved all of Gu Xiangwen's patents, especially those related to the military …
Lowering her head, she took out her phone from her pocket and forwarded the list of the Gu assets that Ye Xuan had sent her to Huo Shaoheng. "He gave this to me. I think you guys need it more."
Huo Shaoheng felt his phone vibrate. He took it out and looked at it. His heart skipped a beat.
He tapped on the screen a few times and roughly read the content.
"He gave this to you? Can he be trusted? "
"It should be believable. Because I can't think of a reason why he would mislead me about this. "Gu Nianzhi shrugged." Ok, anything else? If not, I'm leaving. "
Huo Shaoheng put away his phone and continued to ask, "That's it? He came to you today just to give you this list? "
"Yeah …" Gu Nianzhi thought about it and decided to tell him about the photo. "Right, he also gave me a photo of him and my dad when he was young. This is my first time seeing what my father looks like. "
Remembering that Huo Shaoheng and the others were still investigating Gu Xiangwen's whereabouts, Gu Nianzhi felt that it would be more helpful for them to archive the photos.
"Gu Xiangwen's photo?" Huo Shaoheng was stunned again. "Ye Xuan actually has a photo of Gu Xiangwen?"
They had searched all over the world but could not find a single photo of Gu Xiangwen that had been published.
Gu Nianzhi opened the photo album on her phone and showed Huo Shaoheng the photo she had taken of Ye Xuan and Gu Xiangwen together.
Of course, she was too embarrassed to show him the photoshopped photo.
"Send me one." Just as Gu Nianzhi thought, this was a very important clue. Huo Shaoheng straightened and was very cautious.
"Ok." Gu Nianzhi immediately forwarded it to Huo Shaoheng. Seeing that he was staring at the photo, she said happily, "Isn't my dad very handsome? I've never seen a man more handsome than him. "
Huo Shaoheng snorted and didn't comment.
However, even by Huo Shaoheng's standards, he had to admit that Gu Xiangwen was indeed very handsome. Moreover, it was the kind of eye-catching handsomeness that was much better looking than many celebrities.
However …
Huo Shaoheng's brows furrowed imperceptibly. Then he searched through the photo album on his phone and found the photo of the Gu family of four that he had taken at the Gu's island villa in the Caribbean Sea. He passed it to Gu Nianzhi. "Take a look. Who is this?"
Gu Nianzhi leaned over and glanced at Huo Shaoheng's hand. Her pupils suddenly contracted.
This photo was obviously a "family portrait" of a family of four.
A gentle and elegant man and a quiet and gentle woman sat in the middle. There were two girls standing next to them. The older girl was about 16 or 17 years old, and the younger girl was about 11 years old.
The older girl was obviously Gu Yanran because her current appearance was not much different from when she was 16 or 17 years old. Gu Nianzhi could recognize her at a glance.
However, the younger girl was definitely herself from seven years ago!
The quiet and gentle woman sitting had a round face and slender eyes. They were the standard almond-shaped eyes and two curved eyebrows. She did look somewhat similar to Gu Nianzhi when she was young.
Could this woman be her mother?!
Gu Nianzhi's gaze also became fervent.
The man sitting next to the woman was very elegant. If one looked closely, they would notice that this person's expression seemed to be somewhat similar to Gu Nianzhi's. He seemed to be smiling even when he wasn't speaking, giving people the feeling of a spring breeze.
"Who is this man?" Gu Nianzhi asked curiously. "What about this woman? Could she be my mother? "
Huo Shaoheng placed the photo on her phone next to the "family portrait" on his phone. He compared them and said, "I originally thought that the man in this photo was your father, Gu Xiangwen, and the woman was your mother, Grace."
"Oh?! How is that possible? My father is definitely not this person. That person is my father! "Gu Nianzhi pointed at the handsome man in the photo with Ye Xuan and said resolutely.
To be honest, the man in the "family portrait" of four people was gentle and elegant. He was also quite good-looking. Of course, he wasn't as eye-catching as the man in the photo with Ye Xuan.
Gu Nianzhi was obsessed with voices, but she was even more obsessed with looks. She was used to looking at faces, so she was certain that the man in the photo with Ye Xuan was her father, Gu Xiangwen.
Huo Shaoheng knew about this bad habit of hers, but he didn't think there was a need to correct it. She had higher standards, so he wouldn't have to worry too much.
Because she refused to admit that the man in the "family portrait" of four people was her father, Gu Nianzhi also refused to admit that the woman was her mother.
Although she didn't have any evidence and was only relying on her intuition.
Huo Shaoheng looked down and carefully compared the two photos. He didn't speak for a while.
Gu Nianzhi was anxious. She was worried that Huo Shaoheng would think that the man in the "family portrait" of four people was her father. She didn't care about being embarrassed and took out her photoshopped photo. "Look, this person's nose is exactly the same as mine. From his appearance, this man should be my father as well."
Huo Shaoheng finally saw Gu Nianzhi's photoshopped photo. He glanced at her and was slightly moved. His deep voice softened. "Yeah, I also think that the man in Ye Xuan's photo should be your father, Gu Xiangwen."
Ever since Huo Shaoheng confirmed that the time he and Gu Yanran were in danger in Barbados, it was very likely that Gu Yanran had directed and acted on her own. He began to have doubts about all the evidence from that time, including this "family photo."
In order to not cause Gu Nianzhi any trouble, he didn't take it out.
Until Ye Xuan took out a photo with Gu Xiangwen.
This photo also confirmed Huo Shaoheng's suspicions.
That "family portrait" of four people was deliberately placed there for him to see, but he didn't want to jump to conclusions for the time being.
Gu Nianzhi breathed a sigh of relief, but a new question quickly surged in her mind. She looked at Huo Shaoheng suspiciously. "Where did you get this photo?"
Because Gu Yanran was in it, Gu Nianzhi immediately asked, "Did Gu Yanran give it to you?"
To a certain extent, it was indeed arranged by Gu Yanran.
Huo Shaoheng thought about it for a while and nodded. "Sort of."
"Yes means yes, no means no. What do you mean by sort of?" Gu Nianzhi asked anxiously.
She finally had a new lead, so she didn't want to give it up.
Huo Shaoheng briefly recounted the time when he was in danger with Gu Yanran in Barbados.
Gu Nianzhi knew that Huo Shaoheng had stayed on the island with Gu Yanran because of that. She had felt sour at the time.
But now that she heard about it again, she realized that she actually didn't feel sour at all. She only sighed. "… So that's how it is. She really planned this."
Everything was connected. Whether it was transferring assets or arranging all kinds of props to prove her identity, it didn't seem like Gu Yanran's doing.
Gu Nianzhi gripped her phone and frowned as she paced back and forth in front of Huo Shaoheng. She mused. "I think there's someone behind Gu Yanran. Someone was helping her plan to seize the property of the Gu Family with a purpose. Huo Shao, did you know? Gu Yanran even started transferring assets four years ago. Tell me, she's clearly already the eldest daughter of the Gu family. Also, before she saw me again, what reason did she have to transfer assets? "
At that time, the Gu assets were hers to begin with. Why would she take the risk?
Huo Shaoheng nodded and said honestly, "I originally thought the person behind her was Ye Xuan. But from the way Ye Xuan came to confess to you today, Ye Xuan doesn't seem like someone who could help Gu Yanran transfer the Gu assets."
"Ye Xuan is very loyal to my father. He's protecting the Gu family, not someone from the Gu family." Gu Nianzhi understood this very well. "It's a pity that he's been with Gu Yanran for so long. Gu Yanran has led him astray and reduced him to the position of a servant. I think that's definitely not my father's original intention of paying for his education."
Looking at Gu Nianzhi's serious little face, Huo Shaoheng's eyes became solemn. He said calmly, "Yeah, so does that mean he'll have to follow you from now on? You can help him correct his values. "
