Lady Gu Is Too Weak To Fend For Herself Chapter 1203 - 1203 They're Back

Chapter 1203 - 1203 They’re Back

1203 They’re Back

Qiao Xi lowered her eyes. “The Xia family is able to hide Xia Yunlou’s ident.i.ty flawlessly. There must be someone secretly helping them. Otherwise, with the Yin family’s power, they would have found clues all these years.”

“They’ve been planning for years, and someone is secretly helping them. It’s really not easy to find evidence.”

“But it doesn’t matter even if there’s no evidence. Since I’m sure that the person in front of me isn’t the real Xia Yunlou, I’ll just fake the evidence.”

Hearing Qiao Xi’s words, Gu Zheng raised his eyebrows.

Qiao Xi chuckled. “The Xia family forged a DNA test report to prove Xia Yunlou’s ident.i.ty, so I’ll fake evidence to prove that she’s fake. There’s no problem with that, right?”

“Before Mom pa.s.sed away, she was still thinking about her sister. It was her last wish to find her sister. No matter if Xia Yunlou is dead or alive, I have to investigate it clearly. I can’t let that vicious woman taint Xia Yunlou’s reputation.”????w???ovel.?o?

Gu Zheng asked casually, “So what are you going to do?”

Qiao Xi lazily leaned against the sofa, and the corners of her mouth curled up slightly as she said meaningfully, “I want to set up a trap for the Xia family to fall into.”

Gu Zheng hugged her in his arms and laughed heartily. He teased, “Mrs. Gu, you’re really smart. But didn’t you say that you weren’t going to scheme against the Xia family?”

The smile on Qiao Xi’s face suddenly stiffened.

…

In the dead of the night, Gu Zheng came to the study to deal with work.

Song s.h.i.+jing walked in and asked nervously, “President, Mr. and Mrs. He have returned to the country. The old master has also rushed over from the capital. They’re holding a welcome banquet in Li City. They sent an invitation today. Do you want to attend?”

Gu Zheng glanced at the invitations on the table, looked away, and chuckled. “They still came back in the end.”

Song s.h.i.+jing was a little unhappy. “The He family hasn’t been developing well overseas all these years. If you hadn’t helped them directly, they would have gone bankrupt long ago. Instead of doing business honestly, they always want you to clean up their mess. They’re too greedy. Now that they’ve returned to Li City, they actually have the cheek to invite you over!”

Gu Zheng lowered his eyes, and a cold glint flashed across them. He sneered. “Back then, I wasn’t welcomed in the Gu family. It was the He family who helped me. Perhaps without the He family, my entrepreneurial path wouldn’t have been so smooth, so I should repay them. Whenever they encounter difficulties, the first person they think of is naturally me.”

“President, you’ve done enough for the He family over the years. You’ve already returned their kindness. Moreover, when they went overseas back then, they said that they would never contact you again. But they couldn’t survive overseas and returned to Li City. Aren’t they going too far?”

Gu Zheng’s slender fingers tapped on the word ‘He’ on the invitation in silence.

Song s.h.i.+jing, who was at the side, was indignant. “Everyone in Li City thinks that the He family helped you back then. They think that you have a close relations.h.i.+p with the He family and that you treat them as your benefactors. Now that they’ve just arrived in Li City, a group of people is trying to curry favor with them. The He family has benefited a lot by relying on your name. Are you still going to indulge them?”

Qiao Xi stood at the door of the study and listened to Song s.h.i.+jing’s angry voice. He had always been calm and humble. This seemed to be the first time he was talking to Gu Zheng so agitatedly!

The He family? Qiao Xi seemed to have never heard of this family before. Previously, they had cut off all contact with Gu Zheng. Now that their business overseas failed, they returned to Li City. Did they want to rely on Gu Zheng to survive?

In the study, Gu Zheng said casually, “The He family won’t be smug for long.”

Song s.h.i.+jing: “…” He really felt indignant for the president. The president had already done enough for the He family. Now that the He family still dared to approach him, did they really think that the president had such a good temper that he would just tolerate it?

If they angered the president, the He family would definitely suffer!

At this moment, Qiao Xi knocked on the door and interrupted their conversation.

Qiao Xi pushed open the door and swaggered in without hiding the fact that she had eavesdropped. “Who’s the He family?”

The corners of Gu Zheng’s mouth curled into a disdainful smile. “We’re old friends, but we might be enemies in the future.”

Actually, Qiao Xi also understood. It was probably because when Gu Zheng was bullied by the Gu family back then, the He family helped him. Now that Gu Zheng had become the richest man in Li City, the He family wanted to get benefits from him.

On account of their past kindness, Gu Zheng had directly helped the He family on multiple accounts. They received enough money to prepare to go overseas to develop, but they despised Gu Zheng’s ident.i.ty as an illegitimate child and were unwilling to interact with him. Now that Gu Zheng’s ident.i.ty as an illegitimate child was debunked and he became the legitimate heir of the Gu family, the He family came back to curry favor with him.
