Chapter 72 Exposing Wen Li's Past and Taking Her Life
Lin Meizhen wiped away her tears.
"This scourge, even with a terminal illness, still won't behave. Is she prolonging her life through malice?"
Ji Ying narrowed her eyes. "She doesn't want to prolong her life; she wants to die sooner."
"Take good care of Grandpa."
She avoided Lin Meizhen and went downstairs to the garden to make a phone call...
Ji Ying left her car at the hospital, so Xiao Xia drove her brother's car home.
But as soon as I drove out of the parking lot gate, my phone rang.
She lost focus... *duang!*
The front of the car kissed the side of someone's waist.
Other people's cars were fine, but hers had a dented bumper.
Even so, she was too scared to get out of the car. She answered the phone, which was still playing music, and asked in a trembling voice, "Brother, you've caused trouble. You called me, which distracted me, and I ended up crashing into someone's car."
Xiao Chang paused for a moment on the phone, "You have insurance, it's okay, are you alright?"
Xiao Xia swallowed hard. "It's okay, the other party is a Hongqi L5."
Xiao Chang: "..."
Xiao Xia added, "It's a custom-made one."
"Oh, is that so? Then from now on, you're not my sister anymore. I'll acknowledge you again after I've paid off the debt."
After saying that, Xiao Chang hung up the phone.
When the other driver saw that she didn't get out of the car for a long time, he came up and knocked on her car window.
"Uncle, I didn't mean to."
Everyone knows what kind of status someone who can drive an L5 car is, so Xiao Xia would rather die than get out of the car.
Helpless, the driver called out the name of the "little leader" in the car.
The secretary walked to the window, saw Xiao Xia, and looked on incredulously.
Xiao Xia forced a smile, "Brother, I'm very poor..."
The secretary smiled, a glint of light flashing in her eyes.
"It's okay, I don't think the impact was too serious. Just leave a couple of hairs. We'll contact you again if anything else comes up."
Xiao Xia didn't think she understood correctly.
"You mean we're just going to let the car accident go like this?"
The secretary nodded. "This is my business card. I wouldn't lie to you."
He is the secretary to the president of the VYG Energy Council.
From Beijing.
Xiao Xia's eyes lit up.
"No taking it back!"
After giving her the hair, she immediately reversed, turned, and sped away.
The secretary returned to the car and carefully put the hair with the follicles still attached into a transparent bag.
“This Miss Xiao is quite interesting. She was sent to the countryside as a child, and there are almost no records of her whereabouts before the age of 12. However, the time when she was brought back to the Xiao family coincides with the time when Madam went missing... I think she is very likely, so I left her a business card.”
The secretary glanced at the boss's expression and adjusted her words.
“The Xiao family is well-off. If she really is the lady, then she shouldn’t have suffered much these past few years, which will make things easier for you and Teacher Shen.”
The man calmly put away the transparent bag. "Your eyesight is sharper than a DNA sequencer?"
The secretary shut her mouth.
...
In the evening, local trending topics once again put Gujia in the spotlight.
However, the protagonist exposed this time is Wen Li, who calls herself a wealthy socialite and serves as the honorary president of several socialite and noblewoman associations.
It's worth noting that Wen Li's public resume is quite impressive: she graduated from a prestigious university's economics department, her first husband was an educator who committed suicide due to depression, and in her second marriage, she married into a wealthy family with her daughter. She assisted her husband and in-laws and raised a business tycoon like Gu Yanchen.
In recent years, she was once the envy of everyone in Kunming's high society as a model of a wealthy lady.
The content exposed this time plunged her from the heights of fame into a stinking quagmire.
Several gossip bloggers not only posted her junior high school graduation certificate, but also dug up the identity information of her ex-husband, a gambling addict, and even posted her work photos in a massage parlor, as well as "dedicated" photos of her serving customers.
Furthermore, they specifically stated: "We have evidence and we are not afraid of being sued."
Wen Li's meticulously woven gold brocade robe was torn to shreds at this moment.
Even Gu Gong was ridiculed for his excessive love.
Because Wen Li was known for her ostentatious behavior in high society circles, once the confirmed news broke, those who had previously fawned over her either blocked her or mocked her.
Some people even openly expressed their "concern" for her in the group chat:
"Mrs. Gu, we've heard your massage techniques are exceptional. Perhaps you could offer us sisters a massage sometime?"
"Mrs. Gu's unique methods are only for serving specific VIPs; she won't bother with you."
Wen Li was so angry that her nose started bleeding, and even medication couldn't stop it. She was taken to the hospital that night.
However, the atmosphere in Mr. Lin's hospital room was very warm and cozy.
Lin Meizhen went home, and Ji Ying kept watch.
She gave the old man his blood pressure medication and adjusted his hospital gown.
"Why bother arguing with those scoundrels? Wen Li has a foul mouth and a black heart; she's beyond saving. You should eat and drink well, live a few more years, and make that jealous person furious!"
Grandpa smiled because of her words of encouragement.
"It seems that my granddaughter has learned a lot in the past few years in the Gu family and hasn't suffered any losses. I can finally rest assured."
Ji Ying, however, fell into a moment of deep thought because of her grandfather's words.
There are times when you suffer losses in the Gu family, but that's for Gu Yanchen's sake, for the so-called bigger picture.
To put it bluntly, it's only because of love that they're willing to back down.
Now that she has no feelings for Gu Yanchen, and Wen Li still doesn't know what's good for her, she can't blame her for being ruthless.
Just then, the ward door was suddenly kicked open.
Gu Gong stormed in and slapped her across the face.
Ji Ying managed to stand up by holding onto the bed frame.
What are you going to do?
Grandpa panicked; his face turned pale and he was panting heavily.
His heart couldn't withstand such a shock. Ji Ying came to her senses and quickly pressed the call button.
But Gu Gong ignored everything and cursed, "You vicious woman! Your mother-in-law was just confused for a moment and said a few angry words. Your grandfather was already dying. Can you blame her for not being able to withstand the accident? For such a small thing, you dare to dig up her past and try to kill her?! Do you have any humanity left?!"
Grandpa coughed violently because of what he said, and even his lips turned purple.
"Stop talking!" Ji Ying said.
However, Gu Gong ignored the alarm coming from the heart monitor and continued to curse.
"Was my wife wrong? Without Gu Jia supporting the family, this old bastard would have died long ago. You're nothing but a cheap slut who can only breathe by climbing into my son's bed! You take advantage of our benefits as a couple, and then you turn around and bite us back. You're not even as good as a dog that wags its tail!"
The doctors and nurses rushed in and, seeing Mr. Lin's condition, angrily said, "The patient can't be agitated. Why are you all arguing in the ward? We need to save the patient, so get out of here right now."
Ji Ying didn't want him to continue provoking her grandfather here, so she immediately walked out.
But Gu Gong thought she was trying to escape because she felt she was in the wrong, so he stepped forward and grabbed her collar.
"What? You got my wife hospitalized, and you think you can just run away without even being able to speak a normal word? Let me tell you, even if you kowtow to my wife until your head is smashed, this won't be over!"
The alarm from the heart monitor pierced Ji Ying's heart with each beep.
She grasped Gu Gong's hand and lowered her voice, saying, "Don't dirty my grandfather's hospital room, let's talk somewhere else!"
Seeing her attitude, Gu Gong became even angrier and forcefully threw her aside.
Ji Ying bumped into the nurse's cart, shattering the medicines on it and making the whole ward even more chaotic.
"Gu Gong!"
The calm, icy surface in her eyes cracked instantly, and the anger hidden beneath finally exploded.
