《Limited to Pampering in Marriage: Report to Captain, I’m Pregnant.》Chapter 16 - The USB Flash Drive Has Been Switched
Advertisement
It was originally the 60th birthday banquet of the old master of the Ling family, but now it became a recognition banquet for Fu Beichen and Gu Nanyu.
It was just that this recognition was unilateral because Gu Nanyu later ran away while holding the album and diary.
Yes, you’re not mistaken, she ran away.
She was scared off!
People at the banquet were discussing the matter that happened today. They could not believe that the Fu family was involved with the Gu family.
These people began to gossip about Gu Nanyu's parents.
Some people were unaware of the Gu family’s situation, hence they asked the people around them.
“Speaking of the matter today, I have not heard of Gu Yan’an for many years. After all, I have been abroad. How has he been these days? Why is his younger brother Gu Ming’an always representing the Gu family instead of him?"
"Of course, you did not know this since you were abroad. Gu Yan’an died seven years ago, and since then the Gu family is managed by the second child of the Gu family."
"What? Gu Yan’an is gone? What a pity!"
"Yes, you’re right. Gu Yan’an was a genius in the business world. The Gu family would have been better if he was still here."
"What a shame..."
They were mourning for Gu Yan'an. Suddenly, a stranger made a comment.
"I didn't expect that the wife of Gu Yan’an would be Fu's eldest daughter."
"Nobody would have imagined that. When Gu Yan’an returned from abroad with his wife, his wife had never appeared in the eye of the public. Gu Yan’an had protected her well enough until we couldn’t find out any information about her."
Gu Yaxi was still at the banquet at this time. She was unreconciled knowing that Gu Nanyu was now in the limelight.

Gu Nanyu has such a powerful uncle!
Gu Yaxi felt very unpleasant when the people in the hall were talking about her eldest uncle, Gu Yan’an, and her eldest auntie!
Everyone attributed the present glory of the Gu family to Gu Yan'an. They were not even bothered to appreciate her father’s effort in managing the business.
Gu Yan'an was also lucky. After returning to China at that time, he established a firm foothold in the economic entertainment field after creating several big IPs and making many people under the company famous.
If he was the lead now, there were so many rival companies because the studios were popping up like mushrooms.
The market competition was so great, and it was still a mystery if he could continue to be the leader of the industry.
Subsequently, Gu Yaxi thought of the wife of Gu Yan’an, Gu Nanyu's mother.
Gu Yaxi's only impression of her was her beauty.
As a child, she wished that she looked like her eldest aunt.
Gu Yan'an protected his wife so well that the members of the Gu family could not get in touch with her.
Fu Beichen was sitting in a Hummer. He closed his eyes, not knowing what he was thinking about.
His personal assistant, Jiang Yishan, plugged the USB flash drive to his laptop. This USB flash drive was left by Gu Nanyu when she ran out of the banquet hall in dismay.
Jiang Yishan handed the notebook to Fu Beichen after the information was displayed.
"Chief, the USB flash drive has been loaded."
Fu Beichen did not even open his eyes as he waved and replied, "No, the USB flash drive has been switched."
Jiang Yishan was stunned and he could not find any clues even after searching the USB flash drive thoroughly.

Was it possible that the chief has seen the above information before, which is why he knew that the USB flash drive has been switched? Jiang Yishan was very puzzled.
Fu Beichen opened his eyes to stare at the USB flash drive as he started talking.
"There will be a small S on all the things that belong to Captain S. Did you see any small S on this item?" Fu Beichen said lightly.
Jiang Yishan glanced, and there was no letter S as mentioned by Fu Beichen.
"Chief, what was his purpose of replacing this USB flash drive?"
Fu Beichen looked out of the car window, his dark eyes narrowed slightly.
Purpose?
He would know it soon.
Those who knew of this would either shut up forever or be kept by his side forever.

The Stormcrow Cycle
Once a powerful and lauded witch, Ba'an salu-Ba'an now lives alone in a cave in the desert, waiting to die. When she rescues an outlander from certain death she becomes embroiled in a deadly game of politics and empire, of heart and soul, but worst of all--of hope and love and a chance at a peaceful future. Can a disgraced witch find a reason to live her life again--and if so, what price must she pay? The Stormcrow Cycle is a trilogy comprising of The Exile, The Lion, and Abomination. Tags or genres for each book: The Exile: romance, slice-of-life The Lion: romance, slice-of-life, politics Abomination: tragedy, high/epic fantasy (aka "Everything is on fire!") Updates once a week whenever I have time. Cross-posted on Wattpad and Scribble Hub. The CBMokedi cover will return! Excerpt: She looked down at him again. Young. Healthy, from what she could see, except for the wound that was killing him. He was handsome in a way that suggested a life of wealth and plenty. She did not think he had ever starved. Someone important. Her shadow fell across him, and he frowned. Blearily, he opened his eyes. They were amber and bright, even as he lay dying in the dirt. She could feel his soul, blazing inside of him like a fire refusing to die even as his body began to fail. He met her gaze, eyes widening in what she guessed was surprise—or shock. But he never looked away, staring up at her as though transfixed. Ba’an made her decision. She raised her hand and covered his eyes. In another moment, a murder of crows cawed as they took wing. The man and woman were gone from the road, leaving only the dead staring up into the sky. Note: This is a high-fantasy set in a low-magic world. The first book is largely character-driven and we really only hit the real plot in Book II, so if you're not fond of long epic yarns you ought to skip this one. I also don't include trigger warnings, but mind the "traumatizing content" tag--all societies minus one practice slavery and the world is indeed, rather grim!
