“After Gu Haoran goes in, his shares will definitely be automatically transferred to Gu Heng, and from then on, the Gu Group will belong to both of us.” Gu Yunwei looked at me meaningfully.
I scoffed, "What, you two can get along peacefully?"
"That's impossible." Gu Yunwei said calmly, "Without Gu Haoran, I will have far fewer obstacles, and taking back the company will be just around the corner."
“Gu Heng has been in charge of the company for several years, and many people in the company have already defected. You may not be able to take over the company so smoothly.” I reminded him, “Don’t be too happy too soon.”
"I'm ready." Gu Yunwei smiled.
"Didn't Gu Haoran stop you from coming here?" I asked, puzzled.
“He didn’t know that his grandmother had already given these things away,” Gu Yunwei said. “He always thought that the USB drive was still in his grandmother’s possession.”
"He didn't even think of that?" I asked in surprise.
“He’s been keeping an eye on things. He even knows if a fly flies into the Gu family’s old house.” Gu Yunwei said with a half-smile, “But actually, this USB drive has been in my hands from the beginning. The one Grandma had was a fake.”
"Heh." I said knowingly, "That was a clever move. It saved you and Madam Gu from harm, and it also blinded Gu Haoran. But he is your biological father."
“He should have done this a long time ago.” Gu Yunwei’s expression was icy: “My mother has suffered a lot these years, every minute and every second has been torture. He has lived a carefree and pleasure-seeking life for half his life, but what about my mother?”
Gu Yun did all this to avenge Su Wanqing.
"Why didn't Old Madam Gu let Su Wanqing marry Gu Wuji?" I was very curious.
"Do you really think my grandmother arranged this on purpose?" Gu Yunwei said sarcastically. "It's clearly Gu Haoran who wanted to marry my mother and get my grandmother's support, otherwise he wouldn't have gotten the company."
I suddenly realized: "So, Gu Haoran, he..."
Gu Yunwei pursed her lips: "It's just what you think."
That's true.
“My mother suffered her whole life. She couldn’t have love and still lost her freedom. She endured so much for me. As her son, I must avenge her.” Gu Yun looked at me seriously: “I’m just sorry, I can only do it through you. If I do it myself, it will cause trouble and make it very difficult to take back the company in the future.”
“I was already planning to deal with Gu Haoran anyway, so it wasn’t like I was being schemed against by you,” I said.
"In the end, you still had to take the blame for me. I owe you that." Gu Yunwei looked at me.
"Infamy?" I scoffed. "Who would curse me? Gu Haoran broke the law, and I arrested the criminal who hurt my mother. Who dares to curse me? Even Gu Heng doesn't have the right."
The words have not yet fallen.
There was a knock on the study door.
"Come in." I looked towards the doorway.
Mu Xi came in: "Your godparents asked if Mr. Gu would like to stay for dinner?"
"I do have time," Gu Yun said with a smile.
"Where is your mother?" I asked, puzzled.
"I'm at the hospital with Grandma," Gu Yun said without explanation.
"How much longer can Madam Gu hold on?" I walked over.
"The doctor said it should be within a few days." Gu Yunwei's face did not show much sadness or grief: "Grandma has suffered a lot in her life, so death is not a painful thing for her."
I nodded: "Since no one is home, why don't you stay and have a meal with us?"
"Okay." Gu Yunwei smiled. "I'll call my mom."
"Row."
Gu Yun did not go downstairs first.
Mu Xi pulled my arm: "It's snowing outside."
"Really? If it doesn't snow in winter, what will it fall?" I asked, looking at her.
"You really don't care?" Mu Xi asked.
I shook my head: "I don't care. Didn't I say I have no feelings for him?"
I really didn't feel anything.
Just yesterday, at that very moment.
"Alright then." Mu Xi didn't say anything.
Mu Xi hesitated for a moment: "Yan Yan, be honest with me, what is your relationship with Shen Xingyuan?"
I was taken aback.
"His attitude towards your mother is very problematic," Mu Xi whispered.
I shrugged: "It wouldn't hurt to tell you."
I recounted my background and my mother's experiences.
Mu Xi's eyes widened: "There's actually such a thing!"
"Very few people know about this, Xixi, you must not tell anyone," I instructed.
"I definitely won't tell." Mu Xi looked sad. "No wonder Auntie is like this. If it were me, I would go crazy too, to be betrayed by the person you share a bed with, especially in such a humiliating way."
Although this matter has been resolved, my heart remains heavy.
"Forget it, let's not talk about it anymore." Mu Xi said angrily, "If I ever see him again, I'll make him pay!"
I smiled wryly.
Mu Xi and I went downstairs.
Mother Mu looked at me, seemingly wanting to say something but holding back.
"What's wrong?" I asked.
Mrs. Mu said awkwardly, "I saw Mr. Huo standing outside for a long time."
"Still not gone?" I asked.
"No." Mother Mu must have heard about what happened yesterday, and she didn't know what to do.
"Ignore him," I said coldly. "He was just making fun of himself; I didn't ask him to do it."
Mu Xi said, "Mom, Huo Yubai tricked Yan Yan so hard, he deserves it."
“Of course! Deceiving someone’s feelings is a heinous crime!” Mother Mu chimed in, “No matter how rich or powerful he is, wrong is wrong, and he should take responsibility.”
Mu Xi nodded.
"I'm going to check on Gu Yunwei." I left the living room.
Gu Yunwei was standing in front of the window of the greenhouse, making a phone call.
He sneered, "You ask me? I haven't done anything. I'm just a mere vice president now; I don't have that ability."
I don't know what the other person said.
"If you ask me now, I can't help you. Who told you to do this? You can say that to the police, it won't do you any good to me," Gu Yunwei said sarcastically.
The other party was still rambling on.
"Say what you will. Even if I used you to curry favor with Shen Yan, so what? Who told you to break the law? Who told me to like her?" Gu Yunwei smirked. "I think the police should be here by now, so I won't bother you any longer."
He hung up the phone, turned around, and saw me.
I explained, "I didn't mean to eavesdrop. The food is ready, and everyone is waiting for you."
“It doesn’t matter if you hear it.” He walked towards me. “This greenhouse is quite nice.”
"It's for my mother to cultivate her character," I said.
He chuckled, "It's really nice. I'll get one for my mom too. Can you introduce me to the designer?"
I paused for a moment: "The designer is standing outside."
He turned to look out the window.
Huo Yubai stood in front of the gate not far away, his body covered in snow.
"Aren't you going to try and persuade them?" Gu Yunwei asked curiously.
"I'm not going." I shook my head. "I have nothing to say to him."
Gu Yunwei said, "You should talk things out with him. No matter what happens in the future, you should put an end to this relationship, shouldn't you?"
