My sister regretted sending me to the correctional facility.

a few days later.

I heard that Zhao Ming has already resolved his issues with the director.

The section chief is going to jail for attempted murder.

Zhao Ming also managed to save himself.

After Zhao Ming sorted out his mess.

He went to find Gu Yao again.

Zhao Ming wanted to explain things properly to Gu Yao.

However, Gu Yao didn't even give Zhao Ming a chance to see her.

Gu Yao went on a business trip out of town.

Whether Zhao Ming went to Gu Yao's house or her company, he came up empty-handed.

Gu Yao was away on a business trip.

Before she left, she made a rare phone call to me.

Gu Yao asked me to help take care of her mother while she was away on a business trip.

This request is related to Aunt Gu.

I agreed without even thinking about it.

Then, I told Lin Xia about it and said that I wanted to go visit Aunt Gu.

Lin Xia not only understood very well, but also said she wanted to go with me.

I don't understand at all.

Lin Xia explained, "Back in high school, when Aunt Gu came to visit you and Gu Yao, she brought me fruit."

Our school used to be a boarding school.

They only get holidays on weekends.

So, if Aunt Gu doesn't see us for a few days, she'll come to the school to visit us.

Lin Xia's explanation convinced me.

So, I took Lin Xia with me to visit Aunt Gu.

Lin Xia was carrying many valuable supplements.

I was carrying a lot of fruit in my hands.

After I knocked on Aunt Gu's door.

The person who opened the door was not Aunt Gu.

On the contrary, it was Zhao Ming.

Zhao Ming saw that Lin Xia and I had come together.

A slight look of surprise appeared on his face.

But he quickly realized what was going on.

A sound came from inside the room.

"Zhao Ming, who's here?"

Zhao Ming immediately replied with a smile, "Aunt Gu, it's Lu Yi who's back! He also brought a girlfriend back with him!"

Before Lin Xia and I could explain...

Zhao Ming, however, preemptively explained it to me.

Upon hearing this, I glanced at Lin Xia with a hint of panic.

However, Lin Xia appeared very calm.

I couldn't tell whether Lin Xia was happy or unhappy.

After I turned my head around.

Lin Xia's lips curled up slightly.

Until Aunt Gu arrived at the door.

Lin Xia and I quickly greeted her, "Hello, Aunt Gu!"

Aunt Gu smiled sweetly, "Lu Yi! You've finally come to visit me! You have no idea how much I've missed you since you last came!"

I replied apologetically, "I'm sorry, Aunt Gu, I've been too busy lately, so I haven't had time to visit you. Please understand."

Aunt Gu shook her head with a smile.

"What are you saying, kid? How could I possibly blame you? Young people should prioritize their work and career!"

Then, Aunt Gu looked at Lin Xia behind me.

She said with delight, "Lu Yi, is this your girlfriend? She's so beautiful! But she looks kind of familiar..."

Lin Xia quickly stepped forward and presented the gift.

"Aunt Gu! I'm Lin Xia! I was Lu Yi and Gu Yao's high school classmate. You used to bring me fruit when you visited the school!"

Aunt Gu finally remembered.

She exclaimed happily, "Yes, yes, yes! I remember now, you're Lin Xia, the one with the best grades!"

"I remember back in your high school, you and Lu Yi were the only ones who got accepted to study abroad. It's a pity that Lu Yi was too stubborn and refused to go abroad, wasting such a good opportunity!"

When I heard this, my face burned with pain.

That was all in the past when I was young, impetuous, and ignorant.

Lin Xia then secretly glanced at me.

With a knowing smile, she said, "I bet Lu Yi had some ulterior motive for not studying abroad back then!"

Aunt Gu was stunned for a moment.

"Lu Yi, what special purpose could you possibly have?"

I chuckled to myself and glanced at Lin Xia, until Lin Xia deliberately teased me.

"Aunt Gu, what could my purpose be? I just can't bear to part with you!"

"Hahaha! Lu Yi, you're really good with words now! Aunt Gu felt so warm inside. Come, come, all of you come in quickly, don't just stand there like idiots at the door!"

Under Aunt Gu's warm guidance.

Lin Xia and I sat on the sofa.

Zhao Ming looked quite disheveled at this moment.

Ever since Gu Yao caught him cheating.

Zhao Ming seemed to be going through a period of bad luck.

Business is going badly, and love is collapsing.

Gu Yao went on a business trip to another city.

After much deliberation, Zhao Ming decided to take advantage of the recent time to try and win over Aunt Gu.

He wanted to get Aunt Gu to put pressure on Gu Yao so that Zhao Ming would marry her quickly.

Zhao Ming didn't expect that he had just arrived here when Lin Xia and I arrived shortly after.

So Zhao Ming started to pretend to be diligent.

Lin Xia and I sat on the sofa, and he went to the kitchen to boil water and pour tea, and also helped wash the fruit I brought.

Aunt Gu saw Zhao Ming busy running around.

She couldn't stop smiling.

"Lu Yi, Zhao Ming! I feel that my life has been fulfilled!"

"I've watched you all grow up since I was little, and now I see Lu Yi has found a beautiful girlfriend, who is also my high school classmate, my favorite girl, Lin Xia!"

"Zhao Ming is also destined to be with my Yao Yao, and they're getting married soon! All these major life events are going to be resolved at once, and I feel so relieved!"

I smiled and held Aunt Gu's hand: "Aunt Gu, your happiness is more important than anything else!"

As a result, Aunt Gu suddenly asked a question.

"Lu Yi, Lin Xia, when are you planning to get married?"

Lin Xia and I were both stunned.

The two looked at each other.

I was a little embarrassed: "This, this..."

Lin Xia appeared more composed and said confidently, "If things go well, we might get married next year!"

When I heard this, my eyes widened in shock.

He stared at Lin Xia with a look of astonishment.

I mouthed, "Lin Xia, don't joke around like that, Aunt Gu will take it seriously!"

As a result, Lin Xia said loudly, "Aunt Gu, now I'm worried that Lu Yi might have some ideas..."

Aunt Gu was shocked when she heard this.

He immediately became serious with me: "Lu Yi, Lin Xia is so beautiful, it's your good fortune that she's interested in you!"

"What other ideas do you have? Are you short of money? Or do you not have enough money for the bride price?"

"Don't worry, Aunt Gu has already prepared it for you. Your father left you an inheritance specifically for you!"

Hear this.

Zhao Ming and I both showed expressions of surprise at the same time.

"Aunt Gu, how come I've never heard of this before?"

Zhao Ming was also hiding in the kitchen, eavesdropping.

Aunt Gu laughed heartily: "This money was said by your father himself to be saved for your wedding! You weren't married before, so I couldn't give you this money!"

"But things are different now. You're getting married to Lin Xia next year, which is exactly when you'll need money!"

I swallowed hard and asked nervously, "How much money did my dad leave me?"

Aunt Gu lowered her voice: "Come closer, you two, I'll only tell you two!"

Zhao Ming, who was in the kitchen, was extremely anxious. He regretted not pouring the water.

Now he doesn't even have the chance to hear it live.

Aunt Gu whispered, "Your dad left you fifty million!"

The words fell.

My eyes widened instantly, my face filled with shock.

Lin Xia, standing to the side, beamed with joy: "Lu Yi! Congratulations on inheriting a large fortune!"

"I won't have to work anymore, I can rely on you to support me!"

I chuckled: "Don't be ridiculous! You're kidding me! A fraction of your assets is more than the inheritance my dad left me!"
