Chapter 930: The Empty Li Family
Gu Wanqiu looked over the document again and again, and after making sure there was no problem, he picked up the pen and wrote his name.
She handed the document to Zhou Yi. Comparing the two men, if she had to choose one she liked, she would definitely choose Zhou Yi. He Tian was too mean-spirited. Sometimes he was just a bootlicker of Li Jinxing, with a lot of tricks up his sleeve. If you were not careful, you would be easily tricked by him.
She should be more careful with He Tian.
After Zhou Yi put away the documents, he dragged Zhou Yi, who was looking around, out.
After getting in the car, Zhou Yi said with a serious face: "You shouldn't have told her so much. What's going on between her and Mr. Li is not something we outsiders can interfere with."
He Tian curled his lips and said, "I was about to say it. I feel uncomfortable if I don't say it. When I saw her smug expression, I wanted to teach her a lesson on behalf of the boss."
Zhou Yi frowned: "If you hurt her, President Li will not be happy."
He Tian sighed, "What do you think the boss wants? I even suspect that Gu Wanqiu has cast a spell on him. Even at this point, he still can't let go and even asked us to protect that woman so that she won't get hurt. I don't know what he's thinking."
Zhou Yi stared at He Tian's constantly moving mouth, then lowered his gaze after a long pause. What was he after? Li Jinxing had been entangled with Gu Wanqiu for so long, having loved her and hated her before, all he wanted was her as a person. Who could see through things like love, hate, anger, and infatuation in just one or two glances?
…
After He Tian and Zhou Yi left, Gu Wanqiu started walking around. She looked at every room. She walked into her room and found that the jewelry she had used was still in the jewelry box in the same order.
After going out and seeing the nanny, Gu Wanqiu called her: "What's your last name?"
"My last name is Liu."
"Mrs. Liu, how many years have you been working here?"
"A year."
It’s been a year, so she must have come not long after the Gu family got into trouble.
"Mrs. Liu, was there anyone else here when you came?" Gu Wanqiu originally wanted to ask Butler Wang.
Mrs. Liu shook her head. "No, there was no one here when I came. Mr. Li hired me to clean the house once a week, but the house is too big. It's okay inside, but I can't handle the yard outside by myself. After I mentioned it to Mr. Li, he hired a gardener. Mr. Li still comes here often. He likes quietness, so he doesn't like too many people around him."
Gu Wanqiu didn't want to hear anything about Li Jinxing, but some things will appear in front of you more frequently the more you don't want to hear them.
Mrs. Liu seemed to have started a conversation and couldn't stop talking about Li Jinxing.
"I've never met a boss as nice as Mr. Li. He pays a lot of money. When he came here, he didn't let me cook, so I did it myself. He even helped me trim the potted plants in the yard. Plus, he always cleaned your room. He said that one day you would come back to live here, so he didn't want to change the position of things in case you were not used to it."
"When Mr. Li comes here, he just sits there in a daze. He often mentions you to us. I think he loves you very much."
More than one person told her that Li Jinxing loved her very much, and every time she heard it, she felt like she was hearing a joke.
"Mrs. Liu, have you been paying attention to the news these past two days?"
"Ah?" Mrs. Liu didn't understand for a moment.
Gu Wanqiu said slowly: "Li Jinxing committed a crime and was caught by the police. He is no longer your boss." To put it bluntly, if you want to flatter someone, you can find someone else to flatter instead of always saying good things about him.
Doesn't she know whether Li Jinxing is good or bad?
"Li Jinxing is a labor camp prisoner now. I don't think it's a lucky thing to be loved by someone like that. I just feel disgusted." Every time she went to bed with Li Jinxing, it was the same as having sex with Gong Suinu. Even when he was about to be taken away by the police, he did not forget to disgust her.
Now Gu Wanqiu felt uncomfortable and sticky all over, and could even feel tearing pain when walking.
Gu Wanqiu's face was as pale as jade, and at this moment, a mean smile appeared on that beautiful face.
No matter how much I want to say, it's all stuck in my heart and I can't say it out.
In fact, what Mrs. Liu wanted to say was that she didn't think Li Jinxing had done those bad things, but the fact was that Li Jinxing was arrested and she had no way to defend herself.
"Mrs. Liu, if you still want to continue working here and earning a high salary, then don't mention him anymore. You need to know who your boss will be in the future. If you can't do that, I can always replace him."
"I understand, Miss Gu, I will be more careful with my words and actions in the future."
Gu Wanqiu returned to the bedroom, threw away her coat, took off her tattered wedding dress, took a good bath, and went to bed and closed her eyes.
It's still very early, not even noon, and I can't fall asleep. As soon as I close my eyes, Li Jinxing's face and figure will occupy my mind.
At noon, Mrs. Liu came upstairs and asked her to come down to eat.
"Take the clothes off the floor and throw them away."
Mrs. Liu was quick and efficient and cleaned the room quickly.
…
Late at night, this place seemed empty, as if even the breathing carried an echo. Unable to sleep during the day, he also suffered from insomnia at night. Gu Wanqiu stood by the window and looked at the incomplete moon covered by clouds.
She was a little bit unbelievable that things would go so smoothly. Thinking back on it now, she always had a feeling of unreality, as if she had had a dream. When she woke up, she was still locked up in Qiule Manor by Li Jinxing. Then Li Jinxing used the eggs taken from her body to be a surrogate mother. This was not enough... Li Jinxing also wanted her to give birth to a child.
After that, Gu Wanqiu kept paying attention to the information on the Internet. After Li Jinxing was arrested, he was on the hot search news for several days. All major media were rushing to report his news, and she was also involved.
Liu Zibo also contacted her in the meantime and told her that even if the God of Wealth came this time, Li Jinxing would not be able to turn things around, so she should be at ease.
Li Jinxing will definitely go to jail. When he is in jail, he will bribe the people inside and make sure Li Jinxing is not skinned alive. He will not be named Liu if he does not let Li Jinxing get away with it. He holds a grudge and still remembers the punches Li Jinxing gave him.
Gu Wanqiu turned on the TV, which was broadcasting the local news of Haicheng. When she heard the host mention Li Jinxing's name, Mrs. Liu, who was mopping the floor, stopped and looked up at the TV.
All the assets of the Li Group are being liquidated. The screen behind the female host shows the empty Li Group, with a photo of Li Jinxing attached. The handsome face in the photo is full of vigor and vitality, which is a complete irony compared to the now empty Li Group.
Gu Wanqiu drank the coffee in her hand. The pupils in her indifferent eyes were dark. She lowered her eyes, blew away the hot air, and the voice of the host on TV came to her ears.
Tomorrow is the day when Li Jinxing will stand trial in court, and the final result will depend on how the judge decides tomorrow.
I thought that for such a big case, Li Jinxing would hire a lawyer or something to reduce the sentence as much as possible, but he did nothing and looked like he was leaving everything to fate.
Should I go to court tomorrow? Gu Wanqiu thought about it for a long time...
