Shangguan Wu raised an eyebrow, looking smug as if he had gotten a great deal, and said, "With a big shot helping me, of course I want to finish as quickly as possible and succeed as soon as possible!"

Gu Yunzhen looked at her radiant smile with doting eyes.

That night, with Gu Yunzhen's help, Shangguan Wu finally solved the problem that had been troubling her for several days.

Although she was busy until the early hours of the morning, she was happy and excited.

So excited that she couldn't sleep, she eventually became so exhausted that she was carried out of the bathroom by Gu Yunzhen, who held her in his arms and she fell into a deep sleep.

When I woke up the next day, it was already 10:40 a.m.

The seat next to Shangguan Wu was empty and devoid of warmth, indicating that Gu Yunzhen had been up for a long time.

She got up and washed up, and when she walked, her legs felt like they weren't her own.

"You dog of a man, you bastard."

After washing up while grumbling, she changed her clothes and went downstairs. In the living room, she saw her husband, her parents-in-law, and her older brother.

Shangguan Wu's intuition told her that something was wrong!

When Gu Yunzhen saw her coming, she got up to greet her and said, "Let's go to the dining room and get something to eat first."

Shangguan Wu asked, "I'm not hungry. What happened?"

While getting her breakfast, Gu Yunzhen reassured her, "It's nothing, it's alright."

However, Shangguan Wu rolled her eyes speechlessly: "Do you think I'm as easy to fool as Xiao Bao? If it's just a small matter, why doesn't Big Brother go to the company? You and your in-laws are at home too."

For large families like theirs, the closer it gets to the Lunar New Year, the busier they become.

But they're all staying home today, so it can't be a small matter!

Gu Yunzhen patted her head, his deep voice tinged with sarcasm: "Jiang Yu's body has been found. Her last phone call was to Quan Tianrui, but Shangguan Xinyi told the police that the mastermind behind it all was Chu Mingshu."

Shangguan Wu stared in disbelief: "..." What the hell?

"Is Shangguan Xinyi out of her mind?"

She knew Shangguan Xinyi was brainless, but accusing Chu Mingshu of hiring someone to commit murder was beyond what the word "heartless" could describe.

Tsk, I wonder if Chu Mingshu regrets raising such a daughter!

Gu Yunzhen: "Let's eat first."

Shangguan Wu: "Take less, you won't be able to eat anything else at noon if you eat now."

Gu Yunzhen: "You don't need to finish them all, just taste each one."

Shangguan Wu: "..."

She didn't argue with him and asked, "Where was Jiang Yu's body found?"

Gu Yunzhen replied, "The high seas."

Shangguan Wu's pupils dilated in shock: "Huh?"

How could Jiang Yu have died in international waters?

Could it be that, like in her previous life, she was thrown into international waters to die?

"How did you find it in international waters? Retrieving a body from the ocean is as difficult as climbing to the sky."

Gu Yunzhen looked into the distance with her deep gaze, her voice deep and resonant: "Ji Mingjing sent people to search after receiving the news, and they only found them yesterday."

Shangguan Wu was astonished: "The body was brought over by Ji Mingjing?"

Gu Yunzhen gave a complicated "hmm".

Suddenly, Shangguan Wu swallowed her food and looked up at him: "What does this have to do with Shangguan Xinyi? Why would she testify against Chu Mingshu?"

Gu Yunzhen reminded her, "Didn't you say that Quan Tianrui might be able to use hypnosis?"

“That’s right!” Shangguan Wu snapped his fingers and said happily, “Now it makes sense. Shangguan Xinyi was hypnotized by Quan Tianrui and accused Chu Mingshu of being the mastermind behind the murder. If Chu Mingshu can’t provide any proof, then he can only go to jail for Quan Tianrui.”

That's right. Although Shangguan Xinyi had no choice in the matter, she must have hurt Chu Mingshu's feelings, so Yu Hao probably won't help her anymore.

Without Chu Mingshu's guidance and Yu Hao's protection, Shangguan Xinyi would be like a chicken, duck, or goose without wings, unable to be proud and possibly ruthlessly slaughtered.

Shangguan Wu joked, "Oh dear, should we put Chu Mingshu in jail or Quan Tianrui in jail?"

Gu Yunzhen showed no sympathy for those who had hurt her, her expression indifferent: "Go to jail."

Shangguan Wu's lips curled up, and her eyes and brows were filled with a bright smile.

Suddenly, she exclaimed in surprise, "Huh!"

Gu Yunzhen looked down at him: "What's wrong?"

Shangguan Wu couldn't help but wonder, "Ji Mingjing, did he already intend for me to treat Rongrong back then?"

Before he could speak, she denied it again: "It shouldn't be. Not many people know that Jiang Yu divorced my brother. She was your sister-in-law. She died in international waters. Ji Mingjing only helped retrieve her body because of you."

However, Gu Yunzhen's handsome face remained expressionless, as if what he said had nothing to do with him, and his voice was cold: "This is just a guess."

After all, Rongrong's condition had been going on for more than a day or two, and Ji Mingjing wanted to heal her as soon as possible.

It was rare for Shangguan Wu to see him avoid the question. She knew that he valued relationships, and from her third cousin's description, she could tell that they had a deep brotherly bond with Ji Mingjing.

She didn't want him to be caught in the middle.

"Has Rongrong not come over today yet?"

Gu Yunzhen's tone remained unchanged: "No."

Shangguan Wu lowered her head, hooking her ring finger around his finger and gently shaking it, changing the subject: "Honey, since there's nothing else, let's go out later."

Thinking of the group of people blocking the door, Gu Yunzhen raised an eyebrow: "Where are you going?"

Shangguan Wu rolled her eyes and looked up at him: "I want to go shopping, I want to buy pretty clothes and bags, is that okay?"

A glint of light flashed in Gu Yunzhen's eyes. She probably didn't buy these things because he was in a bad mood.

The more you care about someone, the more you can sense their emotional changes.

In an instant, Gu Yunzhen's deep eyes were filled with tenderness, like the white moonlight spread across the ground at night, gentle as water.

"Okay, I'll leave after you finish eating," he said.

Shangguan Wu felt like she was about to drown in his gentle gaze.

"I'm finished eating." She stood up with a smile, took his hand, and walked out of the dining room.

Passing through the living room, Shangguan Wu said, "Mom, we're going out!"

Ji Mo Yan casually asked, "Where are you going?"

Just as Shangguan Wu was about to speak, Gu Yunzhen coaxed him, "Go see my mother-in-law."

"Cough cough cough..."

Shangguan Wu was taken aback by his words and looked at him incredulously.

Gu Yunzhen led her out of the villa without changing his expression.

In the living room, Ji Moyan turned her head to look at Gu Qingyu: "He lied to me just now, didn't he?"

Gu Qingyu feigned ignorance: "Really?"

Ji Moyan raised her voice: "Yes, didn't you see Wu Bao's shocked expression? That brat must be lying!"

Gu Qingyu sighed and asked in return, "When young people go out on dates, do they expect you to come along?"

Ji Moyan choked for a moment.

"Who said I was going out with them? But..."

Ji Moyan, who was being stubborn, paused for a moment, picked up her phone, opened the forum, scrolled to the comments from netizens who wanted her to meet them in person, and confronted the man: "Look, all these people want to meet me."

Gu Qingyu frowned: "If you go and join the fun, what will I do?"
