Although Gu Siting didn't seem to welcome Ling Yan and her daughter's arrival, he still allowed them to stay at the Gu residence for the time being.
He was busy with his company work and left home very early every day. Sometimes he wouldn't come back all night, and even when he did, it was already midnight.
Therefore, you can't usually get a good shot.
This made Ling Yan's plan even more convenient.
She didn't immediately go to the basement to commit the crime after settling in; instead, she stayed for two days before doing so.
However, they discovered that the crystal coffin containing Gu Weiwei's body had been closed. Although they could still see everything inside the coffin, they could not touch the nine-eyed dzi bead placed on her body.
She searched around the coffin for a long time but couldn't open it. In the end, she found that it was locked with a special device.
Left with no other option, she could only wait until Gu Siting returned that evening to ask him about it.
"Brother Siting, I went to see Weiwei today, and her coffin... why was it locked?"
She asked seemingly casually, while secretly observing Gu Siting's expression.
It had always been kept in the basement like that, but now it's locked. Could it be that he's noticed something?
“I don’t want the Dorrance family to take her away,” Gu Siting said bluntly, his head down as he ate. “Besides, the owner of the Nine-Eyed Dzi Bead is about to appear, and we can’t afford any more mishaps.”
Ling Yan bit her lip and said, feigning sadness.
"How do I open it? I want to see her."
“You can see it even without opening it.” Gu Siting finished speaking, glanced at her, and added, “Besides, you’d better not go in again.”
"Why?" Ling Yan pressed.
"There's no reason why. If there's nothing else, you should go back to the Ling family as soon as possible." Gu Siting brought up the issue of them leaving again.
As the appearance of the owner of the Nine-Eyed Dzi Bead drew ever closer, he did not want to be disturbed by any other people or things.
Seeing that the atmosphere was not good, Ji Fang quickly smiled and tried to comfort her.
"Si Ting, Yan Yan has been busy with movie promotions lately and hasn't been back for a long time. She came to the Gu family first because she wanted to see you. After all... you are engaged, it's not right for you not to see each other for so long."
Is it because news of Gu Weiwei is coming soon that he's starting to become indifferent to Yan Yan?
“If that’s the reason, then the engagement can be dissolved,” Gu Siting said coldly.
“Brother Si Ting…” Ling Yan didn’t expect him to propose breaking off the engagement.
Upon hearing this, Ji Fang also became anxious.
"Si Ting, everyone outside knows you two are engaged, and... Yan Yan was pregnant with your child. If the engagement is broken off, what will she do in the future?"
"Gu's Group will continue to provide you with excellent conditions in both work and life. As for that child... it was an accident anyway," Gu Siting said.
If he hadn't drunk too much that day and mistakenly taken Ling Yan, who was wearing Weiwei's clothes, for Weiwei, there would have been no child at all.
Ling Yan's hand holding the knife and fork trembled slightly. At that time, she knew that he and Gu Weiwei had a misunderstanding and conflict, and she also knew that he had drunk a lot of alcohol that day, so she used Weiwei's phone to send him a message to ask him to meet.
He mistook her for Gu Weiwei and had sex with her, after which she became pregnant and had that child.
He kept it a secret from Gu Weiwei from the beginning because she was ill and had to abort the child.
After that, he did his best to treat her well and take care of her.
She thought that even if he didn't like Gu Weiwei that much, he still liked her to some extent.
In the end, it was all just an attempt by him to transfer his feelings away from Gu Weiwei, and he still couldn't let her go.
Even though Gu Weiwei is dead, and even though she is the one by his side now, he still can't forget Gu Weiwei.
