She Lives without Regret in This Life

Gu Yunbo was shocked by this word, and after the shock came a restless excitement, just thinking about it made her blood boil. Hahaha?? She would work hard for this goal, and one day she would have the renowned Young Chairman floored, able to hit however she wants!

”It’s a secret, you’ll know in the future.” Gu Yunbo gave a mysterious smile.

With a slight curve at the corners of his mouth, Meng Fan nodded seriously. ”Alright! I’ll wait!” Originally, he wanted her to stay at his place, but with Su Yun back, he dismissed the idea.

”Wait a moment, I’ll fetch the keys.” Meng Fan went out and quickly returned, holding a bunch of keys along with a slip of paper, on which was a line of words written in flamboyant strokes, not at all matching the refined image he presented.

Gu Yunbo glanced at the handwriting a couple of times, people often say handwriting reflects the person, yet his writing didn’t resemble him at all. Or perhaps, was this persona of his just a disguise? Not the real him?

No matter, today Meng Fan had already helped her a lot, resolving the accommodation issue, and finding a school that didn’t charge tuition. These she would remember in her heart, not for the past life, but for his helping hand in the present.

In the past, she had been too narrow-minded, focusing only on love and emotions, being too petty. From now on, she would bury her inner thoughts deep in the abyss, letting no one see them.

”Then I’m off, thanks for your help, goodbye!” Gu Yunbo, carrying her simple bundle, waved the keys at him, and cheerfully went out the door.

Meng Fan stood where he was, his eyes deep as the sea.

Meng Fan’s house in the Family Compound was even better than the Ping Family’s, with two bedrooms, a living room, a study, and a bathroom. However, since it had been uninhabited for a long time, a layer of dust had settled inside.

Gu Yunbo spent over an hour cleaning until it was thoroughly clean. Just as her stomach started growling with hunger, Ping Qing showed up with lunch boxes, smiling at her surprised look.

”Meng Fan told me.”

”Oh!”

Ping Qing came in, put the lunch boxes on the table, and urged her to eat first. ”Do you actually think you can live here all by yourself? How would you feed yourself? How would you buy things?”

”No,

”No.” In the seventies, even buying something required a ticket, and she had nothing, even having money didn’t guarantee making a purchase.

While she ate, Ping Qing took a look around the house, ”Such a nice house, it’s a pity to leave it empty. If you don’t live here, it would probably remain vacant.” Initially, he wasn’t assured, and when his father returned from the rescue team, he wanted to go to the Meng Family to bring Yun Bo back. It was just as well that Meng Fan sent a message explaining the situation, which reassured his father.

”For most people, it’s not possible to live here, what is considered a good house in our eyes might be nothing to someone like the Young Chairman.”

”Yes, indeed! Today he told me he wanted to move out and was interested in a house in the Old Mansion.” There are several compounds in the Northern District, of which the first one is the best.

This is also the oldest one, with residents being either retired old leaders or those who still wield considerable influence. Other than the Old Mansion, there is the second Compound where the Meng Family currently lives. It’s generally referred to as the new courtyard.

Being able to live in the Old Mansion is definitely a status symbol, and the current new elite of the rescue world isn’t qualified to reside in the Old Mansion. Meng Fan casually mentioned taking a fancy to a house in the Old Mansion, which was enough to drop countless jaws. The shock wasn’t about his arrogance, but that he had the capability to live in the Old Mansion independently, not relying on his family.
