Chapter 208 Stubborn
Matters of the heart are beyond one's control. She always wants to persuade Qin Fang to let go, but she herself is as stubborn as Qin Fang.
Even though she knew better than anyone that there was no possibility for her and Huo Xilin anymore, she still couldn't accept anyone else, even though Qin Fang was a very good person.
In the blink of an eye, it was the beginning of the school year. Xu Qingsui packed up the little one early and went to Jiacheng Kindergarten to register with Lin Wan.
It is worthy of being the leading kindergarten in the country. Any child who studies there is either rich or noble.
While waiting in line to register, someone suddenly called her name from behind.
"Xu Qingsui?"
She turned her head and looked towards the source of the sound. The woman in front of her looked familiar yet strange: "Who are you?"
The woman took off her sunglasses, revealing her beautiful face: "It's me, Gu Rong."
After this reminder, Xu Qingsui suddenly realized and asked in disbelief: "I haven't seen you for many years. I didn't expect you to have changed so much. I'm sorry, I really didn't recognize you."
No wonder she felt that the person in front of her was very familiar, yet she didn't know him. Gu Rong had changed a lot from before, like two completely different people. However, if she looked closely, she could still vaguely see his previous appearance.
"I had plastic surgery, so it's normal that you can't recognize me." Gu Rong said openly: "I heard that you went abroad? Are you doing well these years?"
Xu Qingsui nodded, still having many questions in her mind. She looked at the little boy that Gu Rong was holding, who was taller than Xu Youyou, and asked, "Is this your son?"
If she remembered correctly, Gu Rong married Lu Jingyu after she became pregnant, which made her exactly one year older than Xu Youyou.
"Yes." Gu Rong looked at the child Xu Qingsui was holding: "This is? Your child?"
Her eyes were full of disbelief: "You are married?"
Xu Qingsui didn't know how to answer, so he could only nod awkwardly: "Yes."
Gu Rong couldn't help but sigh: "Time flies so fast. I didn't expect our children to be this big already."
Xu Qingsui smiled and nodded: "Yes, time flies so fast."
"Let's have dinner together after you register. I'm sure you have a lot of things you want to ask me. And I happen to have something to tell you too." Gu Rong said.
"Okay." Xu Qingsui agreed without hesitation.
She did have a lot of things she wanted to ask Gu Rong, especially the lawsuit in which she was absent.
Gu Rong specially booked a private room so that the two of them could talk conveniently.
After registering, Xu Qingsui asked Lin Wan to take the child back, and she went alone to meet Gu Rong.
"Where is your child?" Xu Qingsui couldn't help but ask curiously when he saw Gu Rong was alone.
"Let his father take him back." Gu Rong replied.
"Lu Jingyu?" Xu Qingsui asked subconsciously.
Gu Rong sneered: "Is he worthy?"
"You must be very curious about Lu Jingyu's current situation, right?" Gu Rong asked first.
Xu Qingsui did not comment: "I have been abroad these years. If you have any information about the Lu family, please let me know."
Until now, Xu Qingsui has not told his brother Xu about the grudge between the Xu family and the Lu family.
"After the lawsuit between you and Mr. Lu was over, Mr. Lu was sentenced to life imprisonment. I originally thought that he would be released, but unfortunately the forces behind him were restrained. You did not attend the second trial, but your lawyer attended on your behalf. Mr. Lu lost the second trial and was sentenced to death with a reprieve. When the verdict came out, he fainted on the spot and had a stroke, becoming a vegetable. The sentence has not been executed until now, which is really a relief for him." Gu Rong slowly recounted the events of the past few years.
Xu Qingsui sighed as she listened to this. Her lawyer was the legal representative of the Huo Group, and she knew very well that Huo Xilin must have helped a lot in this matter.
Perhaps Qin Fang also helped her. At that time, she was unable to return to China due to restrictions. Qin Fang just told her not to worry, as someone had already handled the matter for her. As for the details, he was unwilling to tell her no matter what.
This had become the thing that had occupied her most curiosity for many years. Now, after listening to Gu Rong's words, she suddenly understood.
The reason why Qin Fang was unwilling to tell her was because this matter was related to Huo Xilin, and he was afraid that she would think too much.
"Then what's going on between you and Lu Jingyu?" Xu Qingsui put his worries aside and continued to ask.
Mr. Lu has become a vegetable, which is equivalent to being dead. Even if he wakes up one day, he will only be sentenced to death. However, he is too old and probably won't wake up.
"After Mr. Lu's verdict came down, Lu Jingyu completely gave up. He didn't care about the company's affairs. He spent all his time drinking and partying outside. He also got addicted to gambling. Before the child was born, he had sold all his shares and was kicked out of the Lu Group. He even sold the Lu family villa under his name. Then he set his sights on the assets under my name, but these assets can only be used after the child is born."
Gu Rong showed a disdainful sneer on her face: "So I teamed up with my current husband and kicked him out. After the child was born, I made some operations and transferred all the assets out. Now Lu Jingyu is hiding from debts everywhere, like a rat crossing the street. I guess he is begging for food somewhere."
Xu Qingsui was filled with sorrow that the once glorious Lu family had fallen like this.
She got her revenge, but she didn't feel happy.
Xu Qingsui didn't want to have too much contact with people like Gu Rong. As the saying goes, people with different ideals cannot work together. She had already understood what she wanted to know and didn't want to continue dealing with her.
"Ms. Gu, thank you for telling me this. I have something else to do, so I'll leave first."
There is no need to be too blunt when talking to smart people. Gu Rong already understood what Xu Qingsui meant.
The reason why she took the initiative to tell Xu Qingsui all this was because she had received favors from Xu Qingsui before, otherwise she wouldn't have the good life she has today. She was just repaying the favor.
So when Xu Qingsui left, she did not try to stop him, but just said to her: "The Lu family's grandfather and grandson ended up like this, thanks to the help of the president of the Huo Group, your ex-boyfriend. I wonder if you are still in touch with him now?"
Before, Gu Rong didn't know Huo Xilin's true identity until the news of his wedding with Yan Xisui was published in various news reports, and then Gu Rong suddenly realized it.
No wonder he always has such an extraordinary temperament when he is with Xu Qingsui. He is not comparable to Lu Jingyu. Sometimes she envies Xu Qingsui. How can her life be so good that any man she finds will be one of the best.
Unfortunately, it did not come to fruition. After that, Gu Rong no longer knew any news about Xu Qingsui, because when she wanted to contact Xu Qingsui, the phone was no longer connected.
When we met again after many years, she was already a wife. Everything had changed and no one was the same as before.
