Chapter 79 Chapter 79 Chapter 79
Gu Ting gathered his emotions and smiled at Zhou Yingxue, "I'm fine, Aunt Zhou. It's just that there was a bad guy who was always trying to harm me. Now he's going to jail. I'm happy."
While speaking, she couldn't help but notice the middle-aged man next to Zhou Yingxue. He was tall, handsome, elegant, and had a scholarly air. Standing with Zhou Yingxue, one could imagine what a wonderful couple they were when they were young.
Zhou Yingxue introduced, "This is my husband, Qin He. This is Xiao Ting. Xiao Ting just got out of the hospital. I didn't expect to see you here again. Let me tell you, this child and I are destined to be together."
Gu Ting raised his hand mid-air and paused. When he heard Qin He's name, his tone changed: "Are you Qin Wei's elder brother, Qin He?"
The scene froze. Zhou Yingxue's eyes flickered between the two of them. Qin He stared at Gu Ting in a daze for a moment before offering a handshake. "I'm Qin Wei's elder brother. I just found out today that he's being held at the A City Police Station, and I'm still unsure of the reasons. Do you know Qin Wei?"
Gu Ting said expressionlessly, "I am one of the plaintiffs."
Zhou Yingxue was very surprised, and at the same time her heart skipped a beat. It was possible that her brother-in-law had committed more than one crime. She held Qin He's arm, worried that her husband would be too angry.
No wonder her mother-in-law insisted that she come with her husband, for fear that he would really ignore his younger brother in anger.
Although she was a little concerned about Gu Ting, this was obviously not the time to talk.
Qin He acted very calmly. He said to Gu Ting, "I will first inquire about the case with the police. If it is true, our Qin family will give you an explanation. We will leave first. Goodbye."
After saying that, he took Zhou Yingxue's hand and strode away, and the two of them headed towards the office.
Half an hour later, Qin Wei came to the interrogation room again. He originally looked lazy, but when he saw the two people sitting in the interrogation room, he instantly straightened his back.
"Qin He, what are you doing here?" His eyes flickered twice, and he pulled out a chair and sat down, looking up at the sky. "I said, you don't have to meddle in my affairs."
Qin He's face was ashen, and he looked at Qin Wei with eyes filled with disappointment. "You told me to leave you alone, and this is what you've been doing all these years? I thought you were down-to-earth in running a company and doing business, and that you've achieved something over the years, which comforted me. But I never expected that you would even dare to commit murder and break the law. All the money you earned was obtained through illegal means. You do things by any means necessary, leaving no room for compromise. Are you still yourself? Are you still human?"
Qin Wei laughed twice and said, "From childhood to adulthood, you have only known how to say this nonsense. It makes me want to vomit. What I am like is none of your business. Put away your pretense and get out!"
Qin He took a deep breath: "Tell me the truth, are the cases the police said true?"
Qin Wei lifted one leg and shook it, sneering, "That depends on what the police can find out."
Qin He showed an incredible expression: "Although our family is not rich, our living standard is already better than most ordinary people. What are you still not satisfied with? Have you forgotten everything your father taught you when you were a child? You..."
Qin Wei waved his hand impatiently, "Come on, I'm fifty years old. Don't try to fool me with this. You're aloof, you're noble and upright. You married the daughter of the richest man, and with the influence of the Yue family, you've risen to prominence and power. Do you think I'm snobbish and wicked for pursuing money? Let me tell you, the only thing I'm not as good as you is that I didn't marry the daughter of a wealthy family!"
"If I had the powerful Yue family as my backer, I could be just like you, pretending and being hypocritical, enjoying the supreme pleasure that power brings while standing on the moral high ground and accusing others!"
Zhou Yingxue was so angry that her eyes widened and her face was irritated. She said sternly, "Qin Wei, don't go too far!"
Qin Wei's arrogant expression froze for a moment, and then he snorted coldly, still looking that hateful.
Qin He gently stroked Zhou Yingxue's back, his eyes icy. "Indeed, you're over fifty years old. No matter how much I teach you, I can't change your nature. Well, as long as you can bear the consequences, it's fine. This is the last time. I won't interfere in your affairs anymore."
Qin He stood up from his chair. "I'll remind you one last time. All those people you bribed in the Wei Realm have been investigated. They can't even protect themselves, so don't even think anyone will protect you. You'll stay in prison for the length of time the court sentences you. Spend the rest of your life atoning for your actions!"
After saying that, Qin He opened the door and left without looking back.
Qin Wei finally panicked. He stood up suddenly, kicked over the chair, and yelled in the direction Qin He left: "Qin He, you are a complete hypocrite. For power and position, you even ignore your own brothers. Are you still a piece of shit?"
"My mother is eighty years old, and you made her watch her youngest son go to jail. How cruel of you!"
“…”
Qin Wei yelled like crazy until his voice became hoarse. He finally calmed down and slumped back in his chair, gasping for breath, looking extremely embarrassed.
"Qin Wei."
Qin Wei suddenly looked up and found that Zhou Yingxue had not left yet. She had obviously seen his crazy face clearly.
He calmly turned his face slightly and lowered his eyes to hide all emotions.
"Leave me alone," he said.
Zhou Yingxue didn't move an inch. "I just want to know. Xiao Ting is such a pitiful child. Why are you targeting her? Has she ever offended you in any way?"
Qin Wei slowly raised his eyes. Unlike Qin He, his eyes were sharp and he always looked at people with ferocity. "Do you want to seek justice from me for Gu Ting?"
Zhou Yingxue's eyes didn't blink. "I just thought you wouldn't embarrass a child like this. There must be a reason, a reason we don't know."
Qin Wei looked away and started laughing like crazy again: "Hahahaha... She's a daughter that a psychopath secretly gave birth to for me. I hate her. I wish she could die with her mother. Is that okay? Hahahaha..."
Zhou Yingxue was so shocked by the news that she was speechless. When she looked at Qin Wei again, it was as if she was looking at a madman.
After coming out of the police station, Gu Ting was not in a good mood, so Yan Xiu drove her home to rest.
After leaving Gu Ting's house, Yan Xiu put down what he was doing and contacted Zhou Yingxue immediately. It happened that Zhou Yingxue also wanted to find someone to find out about Gu Ting's affairs, so the two agreed to meet at a place.
Yan Xiu arrived at the agreed location and was not surprised to see Zhou Yingxue and Qin He sitting there.
Qin He's gaze passed through Yan Xiu, a touch of nostalgia filling his eyes. "Many years ago, I met your parents in Switzerland and even went skiing together. Your parents were a very loving couple. I often heard them talk about you back then, saying that you were smart, kind, and generous, and that they were very proud of their son."
Yan Xiu sat down opposite and was a little surprised to hear this. He didn't expect that Qin He and his parents had actually met.
Although he lost his parents at a young age, he has now been able to face the departure of his parents calmly. He said, "Thank you. Then I should call you Uncle Qin."
Qin He sighed silently and said, "Uncle Qin, Uncle Qin, it's all fine."
Yan Xiu understood: "Uncle Qin, you guys came here today, probably for Tingting."
Zhou Yingxue felt a little uncomfortable when she mentioned Gu Ting. "We already know Xiao Ting's background. I didn't expect her life to be like this. When I was in the hospital, I saw that she had a good personality, loved to talk and laugh, and was lively and cheerful. I thought she was born in a friendly family and her parents must be very good. Who knew she grew up in an orphanage and suffered so much since she was a child..."
Zhou Yingxue was unable to continue speaking. This reminded her of her own daughter. If her daughter had to endure such a growing experience, she would be heartbroken.
Qin He patted Zhou Yingxue's shoulder and continued, "Qin Wei's incident has hurt Gu Ting a lot. It's natural for her to hate Qin Wei. I won't say anything for Qin Wei here, and I never thought that she had to return to the Qin family. In fact, regardless of whether she is a descendant of the Qin family or not, it is a fact that Qin Wei hurt her. I think I need to apologize to her and see if I can do something to make it up to her. She definitely doesn't want to see us right now, so we found you. I think you, like us, hope she's well."
Zhou Yingxue explained with urgency in her eyes, "Yan Xiu, we didn't mean to ask Xiao Ting to forgive Qin Wei. We just wanted to do something because we are truly sorry for what happened to her."
Yan Xiu looked them straight in the eye and said slowly, "If you really want to do something for Tingting, I hope you can promise me one thing."
Qin He and his wife were cheered up.
It snowed all night long in City A. The next morning, the city was covered in white snow. Red lanterns were hung and red couplets were posted in many places, and the festive atmosphere of the New Year was suddenly strong.
Today is New Year’s Eve.
The company was on holiday, and it was a rare opportunity for him to have some free time, but he was used to getting up early. He opened the floor-length curtains and saw the outside was covered in snow and everything was silent. His heart was actually a little excited about the morning snow.
Seeing the snow scene always makes you feel good. Gu Ting said that she had not seen the snow scene in City A for a long time.
Yan Xiu put on a thick down jacket and went to his neighbor Gu Ting's house for breakfast with peace of mind. Although he bought the ingredients and cooked the meals, the kitchen utensils belonged to Gu Ting, which was reasonable.
The door of Gu Ting's house opened, and to Yan Xiu's surprise, Gu Ting no longer looked listless as he had yesterday. Instead, there was light in his eyes, and he looked energetic and in surprisingly good condition.
Yan Xiu walked into the house with ease, took off his coat, and asked with a puzzled smile, "Which stock went crazy last night? Or was it that the handsome chef came to cook for free? Are you so excited?"
Gu Ting pushed him on the chest with two fingers and said, "You are so shameless." Then he turned and walked towards the bathroom.
She got up and had no time to tidy herself up, so her hair was a little messy because of static electricity.
Yan Xiu was busy in the kitchen for a while and started cooking the porridge. While he was studying the dish, Gu Ting tidied up and came to the kitchen to help.
Yan Xiu glanced up, his gaze fixed on Gu Ting, who was wearing a red knitted long dress with a V-neckline. When she moved slightly, her collarbones looked so pitiful and charming. The dress was designed with a tight waist, which perfectly showed off her beautiful and soft waistline.
She is tall, with fair and beautiful skin. The red knitted long skirt she wears makes her figure look slim and well-proportioned, tall and delicate, and her skin looks even more white as snow. She is like a rose blooming on a snowy mountain, so gorgeous, truly worthy of the saying: fair skin and beautiful appearance, as gorgeous as peach and plum.
Yan Xiu was slow to react, and smiled and praised: "This outfit suits you very well, you look very beautiful today."
Gu Ting has been tinkering with her makeup and styling these days, trying out all sorts of styles. She's confident in her taste in clothing and says with a smug smile, "Of course. I'm wearing this because today is a special day."
Yan Xiu replied in a gentle voice, "Yes, today is New Year's Eve."
The word "speechless" was clearly written on Gu Ting's face.
"Everyone on earth knows it, okay? Guess again." Gu Ting looked at him with her sparkling eyes and said meaningfully.
Yan Xiu's heartbeat suddenly quickened.
