Move Out

"Jenny washed the coat and sent it over today," Acheng added.

Gu Muchen raised his hand to signal Acheng to bring the coat over.

Acheng walked over, placed the paper bag on the sofa, and turned to leave.

As Acheng approached, Gu Muchen’s keen sense of smell suddenly caught a faint fragrance, a familiar scent.

"Wait!" Gu Muchen stopped Acheng.

"Er Shao, do you have any other business?" A Cheng asked.

"Where did the scent on you come from?" Gu Muchen asked.

"Scent? What scent?" A Cheng sniffed himself in confusion, then took out a red peace and fortune bag from his pocket. "Er Shao, are you talking about this scent?"

As soon as the small peace and fortune bag got closer, the fragrance became strong and clear.

Gu Muchen reached out and took the peace and fortune bag, carefully examining its style.

It was exactly the same as the one he had picked up at the hotel that day.

If there was any difference, it was that there were no embroidered words on this peace and fortune bag.

"Where did you get this?" Gu Muchen asked.

"Jenny gave it to me. She said she was very grateful to me for saving her that day, so she got a peace and fortune bag for me and put her favorite spices in it," A Cheng said truthfully.

"Jenny?"

Gu Muchen looked at the peace and fortune bag in his hand and immediately remembered the red birthmark on her waist that he had seen at Shengge Bar that day.

The same peace and fortune bag, the same fragrance, the same red birthmark...

Gu Muchen returned the peace and fortune bag to A Cheng and asked in a cold tone, "Are you very close to her?"

"Not really. After she found out that I had saved her that night, she said she was very grateful and wanted to be friends with me if I didn't mind." A Cheng took the peace and fortune bag back and carefully put it in his pocket.

"You saved her?" Gu Muchen's voice instantly became colder, and his gaze toward A Cheng became more intense.

Gu Muchen's stare startled A Cheng, making his heart skip a beat. He quickly put on a smile and said, "Wasn't that what Second Young Master instructed me to do? If she asks, I just say it was me who saved her instead of you..."

A Cheng's words were cut off by Gu Muchen's sharp gaze.

"Do you know anything about her?" Gu Muchen asked.

"I don't know," A Cheng shook his head. "She said she didn't want anyone to know who she was. She wants to be friends with me under the name 'Jenny.' I don't mind, and I think she's quite cute."

"How do you contact each other?" Gu Muchen asked.

"Oh, I have her phone number," A Cheng said, taking out his phone and quickly jotting down the number.

After A Cheng left, Gu Muchen said to Ren Yi, "Find out everything about this Jenny. I want to know all the information about her."

"Yes, I'll do it right away," Ren Yi immediately turned and left.

Since the charity auction, Ye Chu had not returned to Shengge Bar.

She had been considering whether to quit her job at the bar, but now that she had told the Ye family she was moving out, she had to rent a place on her own and had lost her salary as a maid at the Ye family.

After weighing her options, she decided not to quit her job at the bar.

After making her decision, Ye Chu sent a message to Xiao Sheng, saying that she had taken care of things at home and would return to work at the bar.

Xiao Sheng quickly replied with a simple and clear message: "Okay."

These days, Ye Chu had been busy looking for a house.

Her mother needed to stay in the hospital for a long time, so she only needed a small and cheap place to live.

However, in Yun City, there were no cheap houses.

In the end, she found a small apartment in an old and rundown neighborhood.

The facilities were relatively complete, and the price was the cheapest among all the houses she had seen.

The only downside was that it was a bit far from the main city area.

After finding the house, she moved out of the Ye family's home.

On the day of moving, Ye Xingguo called Ye Chu to the study and took out a card, placing it on the table.

"Chu Chu, as a girl living alone and taking care of your sick mother, it must be very difficult for you," Ye Xingguo sat on the sofa, looking kindly at Ye Chu. "Take this money and buy some nice clothes. The remaining money can be used to pay for your mother's hospital fees, so you don't have to work so hard."

Ye Chu stood there, looking at the card on the table without moving.

Since the day she returned to the Ye family's home, Ye Xingguo had never looked at her directly.

If it weren't for the sake of preserving the Ye family's reputation, he probably would have kicked her and her mother out long ago.

Now that she was leaving, he suddenly acted like a kind father, which made Ye Chu suspicious of his motives.

"I can't accept this money for nothing," Ye Chu refused directly.

"You are my daughter, and no matter what, I am your father. I naturally care about you and hope that you will have a good future," Ye Xingguo said, sighing helplessly. "All the mistakes were made by your mother back then. Don't let her mistakes ruin your life."

Ye Xingguo's words suddenly gave Ye Chu a sense of foreboding.

As expected, after pretending to be a kind father for a few minutes, Ye Xingguo revealed his true intentions.

"Chu Chu, dress up nicely and buy some beautiful clothes. Tomorrow, accompany me to a banquet. Mr. Li will also be there, and he said he has a very good impression of you and wants to meet you."

As expected.
