Chapter 69: Eating melon progress 69%
Su Lan observed carefully and found that half of the people in the room turned around, while the other half did not.
This range seemed to be surrounding itself, forming a circle like a compass.
Su Lan was curious, how big was this circle?
Su Lan walked forward to the person who looked back the farthest away.
About five steps.
She tried again, thinking, "The thief ran toward the north gate."
Su Lan looked at the reactions of others.
Sure enough, her thoughts spread to an area about five steps away.
Five steps is the radius, and she herself is the center of the circle. Wherever she goes, the range of her voice will follow.
Su Lan found it very interesting and came up with a bad idea.
Mrs. Gao listened to the inner voice and carefully examined the antique, but could not tell whether it was real or fake. She immediately ordered the butler to go down and check and catch the thief.
The butler behind the group withdrew.
Su Lan, as the bell ringer who gave a friendly reminder, heard voices of doubt.
"How did she know it was stolen?"
"Could it be an accomplice?"
Su Lan still didn't say anything, but replied in her heart.
[In this society, it's really hard to be a good person.]
I saw these thieves at a charity art exhibition last time, but they ran too fast and I didn't catch them.
Su Lan was telling the truth, and the people around her believed it without a doubt.
"Words can lie, but how can the ahem (heart) also lie?"
"What she said must be true."
"Why don't you go catch the thief? What are you doing with these fakes?"
Su Lan was secretly happy, but looked aggrieved.
[Hey, I'm telling the truth. If we don't arrest them now, it will be too late.]
The anxious mood of the people around her reached Mrs. Gao's ears, and she felt that Gu Xizhou was a talented person.
Not only was she outspoken, but she was also very observant. She remembered these thieves after seeing them once, and they even reminded her that they had good abilities and good character.
The thief was caught in less than five minutes, faster than expected, but the items were not found.
The housekeeper beside Mrs. Gao asked, "Where are the things?"
She understood what Mrs. Gao meant. Rather than catching a petty thief, the Gao family wanted this pile of priceless antiques.
The female thief looked up and said, "I want to see Gao Shengtang. I won't tell you until I see him."
Mrs. Gao said, "Come here, go get the young master."
Two minutes later, Gaoshengtang arrived.
"I heard that a beautiful lady is looking for me?" Gao Shengtang's eyes swept across the group of people and stopped on Su Lan's face, thinking that it was Su Lan looking for her.
Su Lan deliberately stood five steps away from Gao Shengtang to watch the show. She glanced at the scene and saw that all of Gao Shengtang's girlfriends from spring, summer, autumn and winter had come to watch the show. It was interesting.
The female thief stood up and slapped Gao Shengtang in the face.
"Gao Shengtang, you and I have known each other for twenty years. We were childhood sweethearts. Our marriage caused quite a stir in the city. When your Gao family was short of money, my family lent you money. You even used my family as collateral to get the loan, which helped you get through the crisis."
"But when my family was in trouble, you just turned around and ran away. You are simply a modern Chen Shimei!"
The people around were talking about it.
"This Gao Shengtang is definitely not a good person. So many girlfriends have given birth to his children, but they didn't even get married. I didn't expect he even has a childhood sweetheart."
"Of course not. I heard that the living expenses for these girlfriends and children are based on the minimum standard. If you want to get more money, you have to keep trying to please him. Some even kneel down to wash his feet."
"Tsk tsk, if you don't want to take good care of them, why have so many children? It's better to get them sterilized and be done with it all..."
The female thief continued to cry, "My poor four-month-old baby in my belly, before she even came out to see the world, was pushed to death by you. You are a murderer! People like you don't deserve to have children!"
The people around him were shocked.
"Is it so cruel? Pushing a pregnant woman? Is the baby in her belly his?"
"This is too immoral. No, shouldn't they be arrested?"
After listening to the discussion, Gao Shengtang asked a tricky question, "I don't even know you. Tell me, is the mole on my waist on the left or right side?"
Su Lan's heartfelt reminder: [He doesn't have a mole on his lower back.]
The female thief replied directly: "You don't have a mole on your lower back!"
Gao Shengtang was shocked. She could answer such a tricky question. He had clearly never seen this woman before. "Impossible! You had plastic surgery. No, who sent you?"
The female thief snorted coldly, "You don't even recognize me, and you're still pretending? I came here today to expose your true face in public."
At this moment, Gao Shengtang's girlfriends of Spring, Summer, Autumn and Winter were standing by and watching the show. They only looked good on the surface, but they had been tortured by Gao Shengtang in private. They just treated him as an ATM. Any more leverage they had over him would allow them to get more money, as long as the Gao family didn't fall.
Mrs. Gao next to her also said nothing and even started drinking tea.
Su Lan and Mrs. Gao looked at each other.
She understood that this was an internal struggle within the Gao family.
The Gao family has two sons and three daughters.
The eldest son and daughter were both born to Gao Changzhi's ex-wife. Gao Changzhi's ex-wife had an affair with a bodyguard, and was discovered by Gao Changzhi, who divorced her and kicked her out of the house.
After the divorce, Gao Changzhi ignored his ex-wife, but was quite fond of his eldest son and daughter. He planned to let them inherit the family business and even drafted a will, preparing to give 60% of the inheritance to the two of them.
Mrs. Gao was Gao Changzhi's second wife. She married him three years after his first wife passed away and gave birth to one son and two daughters.
With two daughters, the older one is in love, the younger one is unmarried, and the son is too young, still in elementary school. The three children have no competition in the fight for the family inheritance.
Mrs. Gao was determined to bring down her stepson and stepdaughter to pave the way for her children.
Today, we will start with Gaoshengtang, and the target of this attack is Gu Xizhou (Su Lan).
Su Lan understood it, but she had seen the future melons, and her fortune would be booming tonight.
After the matter was accomplished, Mrs. Gao expressed her gratitude generously.
She would just pawn the knife. Who wouldn't want money? She was good at torturing scumbags.
But she has to help both sides.
How can we bring down this big tree without turning the Gao family upside down?
She remembered clearly what Gao Changzhi had done to Gu Xi and Mu Qing, and she was determined to avenge him.
Since the Gao family has a deep foundation, let's start by dealing with the internal strife.
Su Lan quietly moved behind the crowd, moved to the range where Gao Shengtang could hear, and reminded himself in his heart.
[That's right, she doesn't know you. She didn't even steal from your house.]
Gao Shengtang was reminded and looked back at Su Lan. The beauty was helping him!
He confidently said to the female thief, "You don't know me, and you didn't steal anything from my house!"
Su Lan cursed inwardly: [This fool! ]
The people around started to make noises.
"Hahahaha, this idiot!"
"Do you know what you said?"
"Does he know what's missing from his house?"
Mrs. Gao realized that while she really wanted to bring down Gao Shengtang, she didn't want to lose so many antiques. She shouted, "Tell me! Where are the things hidden?"
The female thief laughed, "I don't know."
Su Lan added in her mind: [She really doesn't know that she is a fake. When her things were stolen just now, she was basking in the sun under the camera.]
The scene was extremely interesting.
Gao Shengtang thought that he had Gu Xizhou's support and everything was under control.
Mrs. Gao thought that Gu Xizhou was on her side and would definitely help her deal with Gaoshengtang. Everything was in her plan.
The same goes for the female thief. Their plan is flawless. She has an alibi and her inner voice to help her, as if she has divine help!
Everyone looked in Su Lan's direction with gratitude.
Su Lan: ???
She was clearly adding fuel to the fire, no, she was revealing the truth and speaking out for justice!
The female thief heard the inner voice and turned against him immediately, "I'm telling you the truth. I didn't steal anything. I was just sitting outside the whole time. If you don't believe me, you can check the surveillance. I just came here to expose Gao Shengtang's face of abandoning his wife and children."
Gao Shengtang angrily shouted, "You're talking nonsense! Do you have any evidence?"
The female thief took out the four-dimensional color ultrasound photos and the certificate of booking a hotel room at Gaoshengtang, and the time matched.
Gao Shengtang looked at the evidence and remembered Gu Xizhou's words that she was a fake, so there must be a flaw.
Gao Shengtang approached the female thief's neck, and she instinctively dodged and said, "You're framing me with this photoshopped evidence?"
The female thief counterattacked: "Absolutely true."
Gao Shengtang: "You imposter, why are you throwing mud at me? You're just trying to delay time by making a feint to the east and attacking to the west. By that time, your accomplices would have probably run away."
Each side held their own views, and the people around began to discuss.
"Who is telling the truth?"
"I can understand Gao Shengtang's betrayal, but pushing a pregnant woman to abort her is so cruel. Is that something a normal person could do?"
"I remember that the family the Gao family had previously married into was named Zhuang. It seems that when the engagement was broken off, the Zhuang family owed ten small goals. Who knows?"
Mrs. Gao glanced at Su Lan, meaning: Keep talking.
Su Lan pretended not to understand.
A few seconds later, the housekeeper beside Mrs. Gao came over to tell Su Lan, "My wife knows that you are capable of helping her, so we will give you this amount as a thank you gift."
Su Lan looked at the numbers and saw they were exactly as she had expected. Okay, deal.
Su Lan adjusted his position and expressed his thoughts.
[It is true that Gaoshengtang promotes pregnant women.]
[He and Miss Zhuang were engaged. When they were sixteen, he got her pregnant and they were planning to get married.]
The Gao family suffered a setback in their overseas investment, running out of funds. They borrowed money from the banker and then asked the banker to act as a guarantor, which allowed them to borrow money from the bank, alleviating their immediate financial needs.
But when the Zhuang family got into trouble, the Gao family turned hostile and said they wanted to break off the engagement with Miss Zhuang. Miss Zhuang was already pregnant, so Gao Shengtang pushed her out the door. There were several steps at the entrance, and she fell down.
Su Lan's inner thoughts were revealed, but Gao Shengtang couldn't hear them.
Gao Shengtang was completely confused. He felt that everyone looked at her strangely, with a look of disgust on their faces, as if they wanted to spit at him.
At this time, Mrs. Gao said, "We know about your situation. The Gao family will give you reasonable compensation."
As soon as she finished speaking, she put a label on Gaoshengtang. What she wanted was for everyone to scold Gaoshengtang's character.
Gao Changzhi wouldn't care if he flirted with other women, but it was a serious offense to hurt the Gao family's bloodline.
Gao Shengtang protested: "What nonsense! I didn't do anything."
No matter how much he shouted, no one around believed him.
The Gao family caught the thief and brought him in.
"Zhuang Keyan?" Anna recognized her.
The people around him seemed to have realized something.
"Is this female thief's surname Zhuang?"
"Could it be... Miss Zhuang who is married to Gao Shengtang? She looks so young."
Zhuang Keyan walked in and said, "Let me go, I can leave on my own. I'm the person you're looking for! I was the one who stole the things, and I was the one who married into the Gaosheng Hall!"
Mrs. Gao asked, "Where are the things?"
Zhuang Keyan sneered, "I threw it into the lake, go and fish it out."
Mrs. Gao didn't waste time talking to her. Instead, she looked at Su Lan first. She wanted to know where the things had gone.
Su Lan shifted his gaze and looked up at the sky.
This is a separate price.
The author has something to say:
