Chapter 338: Leading People to Catch an Adulterer
Tu Ran smiled and said, "Can you pour me a cup of tea? I'll talk slowly."
Gu Xixing was immediately flattered and didn't even use an assistant. He went to make a cup of white tea himself.
"Sorry, I was negligent. Please sit down."
After Xiangcheng entered spring, the spring breeze came overnight and cherry blossoms bloomed everywhere.
Tu Ran might have come out safely and was in a good mood, so she rarely wore a soft cherry blossom pink blouse.
Paired with a black half-length fishtail skirt, this kind of ladylike outfit is rare.
But she really looks great. After all, she is young and her looks are very pretty. She will look stunning when she wears some bright colors.
Tu Ran nodded and sat down on the coffee table opposite Gu Xixing.
Then hold the teacup and take a sip.
She then briefly recounted how Lin Chen had repeatedly approached her to negotiate terms after she was taken into custody.
"So that's when you poisoned him?"
Tu Ran nodded. "Lin Chen has always been vicious. I knew he wanted to deal with me, so I took action first. You can't say I was the first to do it. In the final analysis, he was the one who designed this scheme, and he just let Guo Meixin lure me into it."
"You are really foresighted." Although I knew that this girl was smart, I didn't expect her to be so meticulous.
Can turn the tables for yourself silently...
"That toxin was a small sample I collected from Guo Meixin back then, mixed with some of my own research and development. It's not lethal enough. The claim of sudden death was actually just a scare to Lin Chen. But this toxin does cause a headache to a degree that ordinary people can't bear. Lin Chen cherishes his life very much and won't let himself die, so he will definitely ask me to detoxify him. There's no other way."
"So you planned this long ago and were waiting here. How smart." Gu Xixing couldn't help but admire.
"I've actually been waiting to see if Guo Meixin would choose to tell the truth."
"If Guo Meixin had obeyed her conscience, told the truth, and cleared my name, I wouldn't have to take this next step."
"Unfortunately, human nature is so complicated. When my grandfather was alive, he often said that the abyss has a bottom, but the human heart is three inches deep and cannot be seen through. He was right."
"Then Guo Meixin really repaid kindness with enmity. If you hadn't stopped her bleeding in time at the critical moment, her life would have been in danger. How could she have woken up safely? She clearly knew everything, but still went against her conscience and slandered you, trying to kill you. Such a person really doesn't deserve sympathy." As soon as Gu Xixing finished speaking, the assistant knocked on the door.
"Come in."
"Mr. Gu, something's happening." After saying that, the male assistant looked at Tu Ran embarrassedly.
"It's okay, go ahead, Miss Tu is not an outsider."
"Something happened at the Lin family. After Guo Meixin had a miscarriage, Mr. Guo was furious and beat up Lin Chen."
"Many media outlets have surrounded the incident. It's become quite a big deal. Mr. Guo even threatened to divorce his daughter from Lin Chen."
"Okay, I understand. You can go out now."
"Yes, Mr. Gu."
After the male assistant left, Gu Xixing looked at Tu Ran and said, "Retribution comes really quickly. After all, she had a miscarriage. And it must be Lin Chen's doing, otherwise Mr. Guo wouldn't be so furious."
Tu Ran didn't say anything, but his face was calm, and he didn't show any sympathy for Guo Meixin and the Guo family.
She gave the woman a chance to tell the truth, but unfortunately she didn't.
"Tu Ran, I don't understand. What's the point of Lin Chen threatening you with the mixed-up agreement?"
"A divorce agreement doesn't mean you're really divorced."
"The divorce agreement is a cover. He probably got it to sow discord between me and Xie Nancheng. But the divorce agreement contains a series of rules and regulations, all of which are about dividing up the Xie family's assets. If I sign it and it gets out, it will have a huge negative impact on the Xie family. How the Xie family will view me then is a problem. No matter how stupid I am, I won't sign that."
"So the purpose of Lin Chen doing this is..." What Gu Xixing didn't understand was why Lin Chen went to such great lengths to do all this?
If you want to divide the Xie family's property, that's absolutely impossible.
Not to mention that Tu Ran didn't get divorced, even if they really got divorced, Lin Chen would not get any of the property.
Is it just to make Tu Ran and Xie Nancheng really divorce and break up? But what good will it do him?
"Lin Chen is just a lunatic. Who knows what he's thinking? It doesn't matter. It's all in the past."
Tu Ran didn't want to say what Lin Chen said to her.
She was even more reluctant to tell a male friend about Lin Chen's crazy and almost perverted love and possessiveness for her.
So I just glossed over this matter.
"This time, we finally escaped danger."
"You have suffered." Gu Xixing looked at the girl opposite him. At this moment, he only thought of four words - as quiet as a chrysanthemum.
I've known Tu Ran for so long, but I've rarely seen such strong emotions on her face.
Most of the time he is calm, quiet and silent.
But even so, no one dares to ignore her powerful aura and personal charm.
Gu Xixing even thought, what if he really couldn't catch up in the future.
Being friends with her for life seems to be a good choice.
Because I can keep in touch with her and always see such a comforting face.
"I didn't suffer at all. I was able to get food thanks to you."
"Those are all trivial matters, not worth mentioning." Gu Xixing smiled and waved his hands.
"You didn't prepare the pickles and steamed buns, did you?"
When Tu Ran mentioned this, Gu Xixing was also stunned. He even touched the tip of his nose in embarrassment.
"It was Xie Nancheng who did it, right? You know that too?" Tu Ran guessed.
But Gu Xixing is not a person who likes to tell tales.
"I……"
"You don't have to hide it from me. You can tell it's him." Tu Ran just felt that Xie Nancheng was childish, especially when he was jealous. He was as childish as a three-year-old child. It would be better to call him Xie San Sui from now on.
"I think Xie Nancheng is angry with me."
"But I didn't mean to feed you steamed buns and pickles."
"You don't have to worry too much about this."
It turned out that he was afraid that Tu Ran would be sad if he knew the truth.
Tu Ran smiled and said, "No, I'm not that sensitive."
"I just suddenly remembered that day when I told you about the steamed buns and pickles, and your expression wasn't right."
"When I returned, the food was back to normal."
"I knew someone had done something."
"Only he could do such a thing."
Just as Gu Xixing was about to speak, he heard a noisy sound coming from the office door.
"Ma'am, you can't go in there."
"You can't see our Mr. Gu without an appointment."
"Get out of the way... If anyone dares to stop me today, I will smash this place."
After saying that, the office door was violently pushed open.
Mrs. Xie was dressed in gorgeous noblewoman clothes and standing at the door carrying a bag worth hundreds of thousands of dollars.
That aura was something Tu Ran had never experienced since she married into the Xie family.
At the same time, standing behind her was Xie Nancheng.
"Mom, why are you here?" Tu Ran stood up and was slightly startled.
"Of course I'm here to catch someone cheating." Mrs. Xie gritted her teeth and spoke word by word.
