Chapter 405: Falling into a Trap

After hearing the news from the Qin family, Gu Zhaoye was distracted the whole day.

While Gu's father was holding a meeting, he made an excuse to go to the bathroom.

The entire conference room suddenly fell silent, so quiet that one could hear a pin drop.

Gu Zhaoye crouched down and carefully slipped out of the back door. Suddenly, his father's voice rang out unexpectedly, "Where are you going?"

The executives all turned their heads, and dozens of pairs of eyes were focused on him. An unnatural blush flashed across Young Master Gu's rebellious and eccentric face.

"Sit down." Father Gu said in a deep voice.

Gu Zhaoye's escape plan failed.

After finally waiting for the senior executives to accompany Gu's father to inspect the subsidiary, he took advantage of their unpreparedness and escaped again.

Unexpectedly, Gu's father suddenly appeared behind him like a ghost, and coldly ordered the bodyguard to throw a gun to the ground.

"Go, pick up that gun." Father Gu said solemnly, "Since you care so much about it, take it with you and go on the run with them."

Young Master Gu was wearing trendy branded clothes, eye-catching and expensive, with a cool expression on his face, which already made the female employees very happy.

He roared in frustration, his voice echoing throughout the entire floor, and the employees who were about to run over to ask about his well-being immediately backed away.

"I want to marry her, but you try to stop me. She's in danger, and I have to go find her, but you try to stop me. You and my mother just watch me go from being the principal wife to a concubine. How can I bear this?"

Listen, what kind of nonsense is this?

Father Gu rebuked him angrily, "How could I give birth to a son like you?"

"Hey, that's right, my mother said the same thing." Gu Zhaoye replied nonchalantly: "I also want to ask you two, why did you give birth to me?"

"The girl I want to marry is right in front of me. Why should I let someone else get there first? My status was what stopped me before, so what's stopping me now?"

"Dad, I'm telling you, I don't care about the rumors. No matter who she is or who she's with, I don't care."

"I will take her back from Qin Si right now. I am willing to take her away, but she refuses. What is Qin Si? That shameless guy must have used some means to force her."

"I must bring her back before the Qin family finds her."

The relationship between Gu Zhaoye and his father has always been tense. Whenever they meet, they are like enemies. There is no conversation that can last more than three sentences without a quarrel. The next second after a quarrel, Gu's father will teach Gu Zhaoye a lesson.

Gu Zhaoye also "fighted back" without any hesitation.

In comparison, he would rather confide his thoughts to Mother Gu, but reality makes him realize that if he wants to pursue love without worries, he still needs Father Gu's approval.

Otherwise, Qin Si's today may be his tomorrow.

Gu Zhaoye has been willful and reckless since he was young, but his IQ has gradually increased recently. The Gu family is not as complicated as the Qin family. He does not need to go through the twists and turns of defection to give Jiang Zhiyue a peaceful, stable and affluent life.

He could have expressed his feelings to his father.

Gu Zhaoye took a deep breath, his eyebrows gleaming brightly, "I love her so much. Ever since I first saw her when I was a child, my heart has been pounding..."

So when he saw Jiang Zhiyue for the first time, he couldn't help but pinch her face hard until her tender little face turned red.

The little girl's big, bright eyes were filled with sparkling water.

Gu Zhaoye did this just to confirm whether she was a real person.

His heart was beating wildly in his throat, as if it was about to jump out.

She has a small face and always likes to wear a ponytail and a hairband with a little bunny on it.

Every time Gu Zhaoye saw it, he couldn't help but feel itchy and wanted to pull the rabbit's ears hard.

At that time, Jiang Zhiyue would turn around and tell him not to bully her.

He liked to take her to the most remote garden every spring when the birds were singing and the flowers were fragrant, and he always suggested playing house with her.

Jiang Zhiyue always responded that playing house requires a group of children to play together in a lively manner.

Gu Zhaoye, however, didn't like to participate with other people, as they were all stupid boys and stupid girls. He was only willing to play this game with Jiang Zhiyue.

Jiang Zhiyue played the role of his maid conscientiously, which often made him furious.

Jiang Zhiyue never understood why he was angry, so she began to secretly keep a diary, recording the moments of his daily manic attacks.

She would tactfully advise him to see a psychiatrist.

Gu Zhaoye knew clearly that in Jiang Zhiyue's eyes, he was always a hot-tempered playboy since childhood, and she could only obey him because of his power.

But she didn't know...

In every game during childhood, he never expected Jiang Zhiyue to play the role of a maid.

He longed to play the roles of husband and wife with her.

He dreamed of leaning down quietly and kissing her secretly in that deserted garden.

......

Sheng family.

As soon as Sheng Huaian heard the news, he immediately ordered people to block the news channels and sternly warned the servants in the villa to keep their mouths shut and not let Jiang Wanrou notice anything unusual.

Then, he immediately sent people out to look for Jiang Zhiyue, and also sent people to the Qin family.

When the news came, he was in the main house of the Sheng family, and the news naturally reached the ears of Mr. Sheng.

Someone chuckled and said, "It seems that Zhiyue and Huai'an have a good relationship on weekdays. I didn't expect that Zhiyue would keep it a secret from Huai'an when she was doing something important. Before she went to the Qin family, she didn't even inform you in advance?"

Who else could be the person who is deliberately causing trouble except for the side branch of the Sheng family?

Everyone has had a hard time recently. They believed Sheng Hui's plan to secretly sell off his late wife's assets. Although the properties were successfully sold, the funding chain was blocked by the bank at the last minute.

When we sent someone to inquire, the bank made excuses, saying that a huge amount of money was involved and the remittance process had not yet been completed.

They are all old foxes, how can such excuses be convincing?

The Sheng family suspected that there was a ghost, and the ghost was inside the Sheng family.

Jiang Zhiyue! That little girl must have done something!

This amount of remittances must have passed through the bank under the Mu family, although Mu Liansheng did not openly express his pursuit of Jiang Zhiyue like others.

He was also a playboy who frequented places of entertainment and did not work hard, so people unconsciously overlooked the connection between them.

It wasn't until there was a problem with the funding chain that everyone realized the situation!

In order to help Jiang Wanrou restore her identity, she forced Old Madam Sheng to commit suicide. How could Jiang Zhiyue be indifferent to the property left to Jiang Wanrou by the late lady?

She returned to her family seemingly calmly, but before recognizing her relatives, she had already arranged every step.

They thought they had designed a good path, but they didn't know that she had already laid a net of heaven and earth, waiting for them to fall into it.
