Gu Tangzhang was choked for a moment, not knowing what to say. He also seemed to see from Lin Wu's cold face that there was three parts of pretending to be strong, three parts of stubbornness, and four parts of sadness, which made her look a little pitiful.

This little girl is actually an orphan? ?

Then how did the other party get the position of director of Peking University?

Did you go through a lot of hardships that ordinary people could hardly imagine, struggled hard and were bullied by others, and even paid a price...?

Gu Tangzhang felt sympathy and pity.

When he saw the shadow of his beloved wife in the other person's eyes, Gu Tangzhang couldn't help but think that if his wife was like this when she was young, she lost her parents at a young age, suffered alone, and finally got into a prestigious school, but was bullied and her reputation was destroyed by others... Help! His wife is so pitiful!

In fact, Gu Tangzhang really didn’t know much about his wife Chi Yangzhi’s early life.

When he met Chi Yangzhi, the other party was already a top student at Peking University, and represented Peking University to participate in a physics competition in Continent R. Then, when he was strolling on the street with his friends, he met him who was still in Continent R at that time.

When Gu Tangzhang saw Chi Yangzhi for the first time, he fell in love at first sight and started pursuing her immediately.

After going through many misunderstandings and twists and turns together, their feelings were so deep that they were about to discuss marriage. Gu Tangzhang asked about Chi Yangzhi's family situation.

What did Chi Yangzhi say at that time?

He remembered his wife saying she had always been alone and didn't want to talk about it.

Gu Tangzhang didn't want to make things difficult for Chi Yangzhi, so he naturally didn't ask any further questions. Later, they all thought that Chi Yangzhi's family had died early.

Now that I think about it, his wife might also be an orphan!

Gu Tangzhang's eyes suddenly became wet with empathy, and his tone was full of heartache: "Ms. Lin, you have suffered."

Lin Wu: “?”

Gu Tangzhang was immersed in his own world and continued to ask with concern: "Let me ask you a few more questions, Miss Lin, were you often bullied when you were a child?"

“…”

Lin Wu, who was unable to react, said subconsciously: "It's okay."

Mainly, she bullied others and then reported them to the Lin family.

"You are so thin, do you often not have enough to eat?"

"…Occasionally."

When she was very young, the Lin family would lock her up and not give her any food for days and nights. That was true.

However, she taught herself how to pick locks, and would sneak out every time to find food. After eating, the Lin family would almost come back. She felt that the Lin family was an eyesore, so she locked herself back in and pretended that she had never gone out. In this way, she would not see the Lin family, and out of sight, out of mind.

Later, when she went to live with her grandfather, she had become a picky eater and didn't eat much.

Now that Bo Yuting is maintaining her appetite, she has become more picky. Sometimes when she sees something she doesn't like, she simply won't touch it.

"So how old were you when you first started your business?"

“…Five years old.”

At that time, Lin Shenghai and Fang Ruling took Lin Jiangbai with them on a family outing because she scored full marks in the exam, but they didn't pay enough attention to her, which led to her being targeted and abducted by human traffickers.

She immediately sold the human trafficker and earned her first pot of gold. When she returned, she found that the Lin family had not noticed that she was missing.

"?" Gu Tangzhang couldn't believe it. "You are only five years old. How much money can you make? Are you already worried about money?"

Lin Wu said, "I made money by accident, and I will use it to buy what I need later."

After all, she couldn't learn everything by herself, so she had to buy textbooks and tutorials, and sometimes consult private teachers. Later, when she became more capable, she had to purchase the cost basis for the business.

Every single thing, which one doesn't require money?

The Lin family won’t give it to her.

Gu Tangzhang's eyes were already tearful. "So, have you continued to do this?"

"Um."

"Did you often get cheated or set up by others along the way?"

"So you force yourself to hold back?"

"……certainly."

Lin Wu looked at Gu Tangzhang, who was much older than her, as if he was a fool.

How old was she then?

It was already very difficult to stand in the business world and deal with that old slicker secretly. Where did he get the capital to vent his anger? What else could he do if he didn't swallow it? Would he seek revenge?

You know, it is never too late for a gentleman to take revenge.

Only a fool would immediately try to fight against a rock with an egg.

Not to mention that she was not a gentleman but a villain. Within a few years, she retaliated in various ways.

Gu Tangzhang's voice was choked with sobs, and he finally asked, "You have had such a hard time over the years, have you ever blamed your parents?"

Lin Wu frowned: "Why should I blame them? They have nothing to do with me, no feelings for me, and they don't block my path to wealth."

If it were the Lin family...she would have given up hope on the Lin family long ago.

If they are her biological parents...she has never seen them, so it is best for them not to get close to her to avoid causing her any worries and troubles.

Gu Tangzhang looked at Lin Wu with heartache and emotion.

Wow, his wife wasn't also this miserable when she was young?!

How did his wife get by all these years?

So sad, yet so kind, she really... He cried to death!

Gu Tangzhang thought to himself that he missed his wife so much and wanted to fly to her immediately and give her a big hug.

Lin Wu, who was thirsty after chatting, naturally poured himself a glass of water.

After taking a sip, she suddenly realized what was happening.

wrong!

She came here to discuss Situ Yue's problem with Gu Tangzhang, so how come it turned into a casual chat, and the topic was her past?

This Gu Tangzhang was definitely trying to divert her attention, so that she could back down without anyone noticing, achieve his goal, and even get a glimpse of her bottom line! !

What a deep calculation!

Lin Wu immediately put down the cup, her face stern: "Boss Gu, let's not talk about nonsense anymore, let's get straight to the point, what exactly do you want to do? In a word, Situ Yue, I will never let her return to Beijing University. I don't care what the Situ family and your Gu family have in public. It won't work with me, and I won't let them go."

"If you don't let them go, then don't let them go. They are not important!"

"Okay, in that case, I won't be polite... eh? What did you say?"

Halfway through his words, Lin Wu realized what Gu Tangzhang had actually said, and stared at Gu Tangzhang in confusion and vigilance.

Gu Tangzhang wiped his face and said kindly, "The Situ family has only minor problems. Don't worry about them. I'll go see if the food is served. You are so young, you have to eat on time to replenish your body."

Lin Wu: “?”

As luck would have it, someone knocked on the door at this moment, and Gu Tangzhang immediately called him in.

The door opened and the staff came to serve the food.

Lin Wu's expression became even more blank, because the staff served the dishes one by one. Every time a dish was served, Gu Tangzhang would eagerly turn the turntable to pass the dish to her side and said, "Come, eat quickly."

This made it seem like they were not here for a confrontation, but more like a home-cooked meal.

Lin Wu thought that either Gu Tangzhang was sick or he was so good at pretending that she couldn't see his true intentions.
