CHAPTER 341: CHAPTER 341: YUE XIAOYANG’S WEAKNESS

An Junxi contacted the school and made the arrangements. The school interviewed Gu Jinxiu and placed him in the fifth grade according to the procedure.

This international primary school is different from other international primary schools. The teaching mode lies between Western and Chinese education. It has a six-year system with low academic pressure, suitable for foreign children to adapt.

An Junxi personally took Gu Jinxiu to school. Gu Jinxiu knew his dad was on a business trip in the United States, which made him a bit unhappy because Mom had said they would take him to school together with Dad.

An Junxi knew why Gu Jinxiu was sulking and said, "Dad is busy with work. How about this? When Dad is free, we will come together to pick you up after school, okay?"

Reluctantly, Gu Jinxiu agreed, "You better not lie to a kid."

An Junxi poked his little head, "You’re so clever, no one can fool you."

Gu Jinxiu proudly replied, "Of course."

When they arrived at school, Gu Jinxiu said, "It would be even better if my little sister came too."

The classmates would surely envy him if they saw he had a cute little sister.

Seeing that Gu Jinxiu was about to become a show-off about his sister, An Junxi said, "Your sister is studying at home. As her older brother, you need to set a good example and help me teach her homework later."

Feeling a huge responsibility, Gu Jinxiu said, "Don’t worry, Mom! I can already skip grades now. If it weren’t because He Yiqing wanted to sit with me, I would be attending middle school."

As they were talking, someone behind them called out Gu Jinxiu’s name.

An Junxi saw a pretty little girl arrive in a chauffeur-driven car. The girl hopped over to them and said, "Jinxiu, I haven’t seen you for a long time! Jinxiu’s mom, you look even prettier than before!"

An Junxi recognized her as He Yiqing. The little girl was still so sweet with her words, truly endearing.

Seeing He Yiqing, Gu Jinxiu immediately dropped his polite demeanor and transformed into a cool little guy, saying, "He Yiqing, why are you still so short?"

He Yiqing protested, "Jinxiu’s mom, am I really that short?"

An Junxi patted Gu Jinxiu on the shoulder, "A gentleman should not talk to a girl like that."

Gu Jinxiu pouted, "Alright, He Yiqing, why haven’t you grown taller yet?"

An Junxi was embarrassed. It meant the same thing no matter how he phrased it!

He Yiqing very seriously shook hands with An Junxi, "Jinxiu’s mom, I won’t hold it against Jinxiu."

An Junxi felt quite guilty. He Yiqing’s manners were excellent, and Jinxiu still needed special training in this area.

"Didn’t Jinxiu’s mom bring little Ai Xi? I really want to see the little girl."

An Junxi said, "Ai Xi is still too young and needs to stay at home. Next time, you can come to our house to play. Auntie will make you something delicious."

"Great!" The little girl jumped up, "Jinxiu has never invited anyone to his house before. I’m so happy!"

Gu Jinxiu coolly said, "What’s so exciting about that? I usually like to bring stray cats and dogs home to play with."

An Junxi couldn’t help but tap Gu Jinxiu on the back of his head, "What are you saying? Yiqing is not a stray cat or dog."

Gu Jinxiu had an opinion about this, "Mom, you can’t blame me for her sake."

"Stop talking now. We’ll be late if we don’t hurry up."

An Junxi held the hands of the two children as they headed into the school. She noticed that He Yiqing’s driver kept staring at them, so she took a closer look and was shocked, "Chen Ming, is that you? So you are the driver for the He Family. We haven’t been in touch, so I almost didn’t recognize you."

Chen Ming was Sister Chen’s younger brother. He was the one who had brought her parents and Ai Xi from the island to Yan City.

An Junxi had met him once and asked him to leave his address so they could stay in contact. The gentle and refined young man had not left any contact details, saying that it was just convenient for him to bring them along, and An Junxi had not followed up due to her busy schedule.

Now facing An Junxi, Chen Ming was a bit nervous as he rubbed his hands together, "Mrs. Gu, I know you have a lot on your plate, but has my sister mentioned anything to you?"

"Does Sister Chen have any issues? I’ve spoken to her a few times on the phone, but she hasn’t mentioned anything."

On the phone, Sister Chen had said she only found out that An Junxi’s husband was such an influential man from the news and that she feared An Junxi had suffered too much on the island, always speaking politely to her.

An Junxi knew that Sister Chen was kind-hearted and shy, so she probably would not ask for help even if she needed it.

Seeing Chen Ming like this, she took out her phone and said, "Let me write down your phone number first. I’ll contact you after I drop the kids off at school."

"Okay, sure."

Chen Ming didn’t dare delay Mrs. Gu’s time any longer and quickly gave his number before leaving.

An Junxi took the two kids inside and talked with the teacher, who assured her they would pay extra attention to Gu Jinxiu.

Once home, An Junxi called Chen Ming. Only on the phone did Chen Ming dare to tell her, "My sister’s in-laws passed away. She and her husband have been to many big cities for check-ups but still can’t conceive a child. They have spent all their savings, but nothing seems to help..."

An Junxi understood what he meant, "I’m sorry for not paying more attention to Sister Chen’s situation. I should have helped her sooner."

Chen Ming said, "My sister would never accept others’ kindness and wouldn’t want anyone to talk to her about it. Please don’t mention it directly to her, or she’ll blame me."

After pondering for a while, An Junxi said, "Okay, give me your bank account number. I’ll transfer some money to you first so that Sister Chen can get checked. If that doesn’t work, I’ll find a specialist for her."

Sister Chen had helped her so much. Now, Sister Chen’s only simple wish was to become a mother, and there was no reason she shouldn’t help.

Leaving his account details, Chen Ming said, "Thank you on behalf of my sister, Mrs. Gu."

"No need to thank me. If the hospital can’t help, make sure to come to me."

Quickly transferring six hundred thousand yuan to Chen Ming’s account, An Junxi thought that Sister Chen must be feeling low and decided to contact her later.

Little did she know, the money she transferred to repay a favor would nearly destroy her marriage with Gu Yikun in the future.

He Sirui received a notification that the jewelry exhibition at the Saint Petersburg hotel was postponed. She asked Secretary Wang, "Why did President Gu suddenly change the date? All the preparations are done, just waiting for the hotel’s ribbon-cutting ceremony."

Secretary Wang remained tight-lipped about the President’s schedule, "This was a last-minute decision by the President. I haven’t received any other notifications, so I can’t tell you much, Miss He."

Getting nothing from Secretary Wang, He Sirui approached Gu Qianlan, who said, "My brother went on a business trip to the United States. Before that, he visited Tengxia Industries. Brother Yue has been absent from the company for a long time, so my brother went to check it out."

Tengxia Industries and the Senye Group were not on good terms. So He Sirui went straight to find Yin Feibai.

Yin Feibai was in a difficult situation. Since his mother had a falling out with the Gu Family, Gu Yikun no longer even put up a façade, openly helping Tengxia Industries, backed by Yue Xiaoyang, to go after him.

Yin Feibai resented Gu Yikun, seeing him as a hypocrite. Although Gu Yikun hadn’t officially broken any contracts, he was using Tengxia Industries to suppress him without leaving any evidence.

Yue Xiaoyang must have some dark secrets in the United States. Once he found Yue Xiaoyang’s weakness, Tengxia Industries’ good days would be over!
