Chapter 170 Ha...hahaha...let us off the hook?
The world of Jiangcheng Finance Magazine changed overnight.
The front page headlines were dominated by the topic of Gu family's illegitimate son, Chen Jinhuai.
"Breaking news! Gu Huojun, the head of the Gu family, has been exposed to have an illegitimate child!"
"In-depth analysis: The upbringing of Chen Jinhuai, the illegitimate son of the Gu family, whose mother is suspected to be the Gu family's nanny!"
"During Mrs. Gu's postpartum period, her husband had an affair with her 18-year-old nanny, and she became pregnant!"
"Only one year younger than the eldest son, the Gu family's inheritance rights may be in jeopardy, and who will inherit the vast fortune?"
The content is increasingly bizarre.
The version most talked about by the general public is the "nanny version".
The report vividly described how, when Mrs. Gu had just given birth to Gu Jingcheng,
Even while still in postpartum confinement, Gu Huojun couldn't stand the loneliness.
He got involved with the family's innocent 18-year-old nanny.
"Success on the first try" is how Chen Jinhuai came to be, only one year younger than the legitimate crown prince.
Gu Huojun's decades-long image as a meticulous and disciplined entrepreneur collapsed abruptly.
The comment section was flooded with various opinions.
"Tsk tsk, I didn't expect Old Master Gu to be so serious all the time."
He's also a womanizer in private, unable to control his spending.
"Men, when they have money and power, how many can resist the urge to cheat?"
Besides, it's 'normal' for someone of his caliber to play a bit more fancy.
"Did the illegitimate child expose himself? It must be because he didn't pay enough and pushed him too far."
"This is just one case that has come to light. Who knows how many more are hiding?"
Maybe we could form a football team!
"Upstairs +1, how could a man with money and status like that only date one woman?"
Maybe his wives and concubines could fill several mahjong tables, as long as the money is right.
Aren't they all lining up to serve him?
"Tsk tsk tsk, I really couldn't have imagined that Gu Huojun was such a rotten old cucumber."
I used to think he was a rare breath of fresh air among entrepreneurs.
"Hey, I remember his son Gu Jingcheng got married too."
Who is Mrs. Gu? It seems like they've never publicly revealed her identity. They're being so mysterious. Could they already be divorced?
"It's hard to say. She's dealing with a philandering father-in-law every day, and possibly a husband who's just like him."
"No wonder they left! I'd run away too!"
Gu Family Old House
Gu Huojun looked at the unfamiliar young man on the screen.
She tearfully accused him of being a "father who never fulfilled his responsibilities."
His emotions were so sincere, as if he had suffered a great injustice.
His eyes churned with the chilling dread of someone long accustomed to power being offended.
After a long while, Gu Huojun suddenly turned off the screen.
Close your eyes and lean back on the sofa.
An image of a woman with a somewhat timid look and misty eyes appeared in my mind.
"This is the child that Qingyu gave birth to..."
"Just like his mother, he was born... a natural actor."
"She schemed and plotted back then, and now her son is making his debut on stage."
"They resorted to such despicable means because they thought he was soft-hearted and easy to manipulate."
"Oh!"
Gu Huojun made a phone call to Gu Jingcheng.
"Let's have a talk with Chen Jinhuai."
"If he remains stubborn..."
"There's no need to hold back."

Lin Wei handed over some final tasks to Lin Yanlin at the company.
During lunch break,
She leaned back on the sofa, casually flipping through recent news articles.
A pop-up ad appeared announcing an exclusive report from Gujia.
She tapped the screen lightly with her fingertip.
I immediately noticed Chen Jinhuai's slightly haggard face.
Lin Wei saw the speculations about her divorce in the comments section.
A self-deprecating smile curled at the corner of his lips.
This generation of netizens really has a knack for "predicting".
She and Gu Jingcheng have indeed reached the point of getting a divorce.
I just never expected that the identity of "Mrs. Gu," who had never appeared in public before, would be revealed.
It will also be mentioned in such farces.
Lin Wei felt nothing and casually clicked on Chen Jinhuai's accusation video.
The man in the picture has a wronged look in his eyes.
He was completely different from the gentle and refined "President Chen" she remembered.
Chen Jinhuai was actually the illegitimate son of the Gu family.
Therefore, those seemingly close encounters... are not accidental.
Men who are shrewd and calculating are indeed...
Lin Wei put down her phone. In this life, her entanglement with the Gu family...
It was so deep that she couldn't breathe.
Her husband is Gu Jingcheng, and her ex-fiancé is Gu Xuan.
There's also Chen Jinhuai, the illegitimate son of the Gu family who has been living away from home...
They deliberately try to get close to you.
She thought that as long as she got the divorce certificate, she could walk away gracefully.
But when she was alone, the pain surged up and almost overwhelmed her.
Humans are indeed greedy.
Perhaps this situation is truly a punishment from heaven for her greed.
She actually... in that marriage that began as a transaction,
...She greedily wanted to possess that aloof, noble, and elusive man.
She wanted to have a place in his heart.
She crossed the line first, giving away her true feelings that she shouldn't have.
Therefore, reality slapped them hard in the face.
If only she had been in that deal with Gu Jingcheng back then.
If we had just viewed it as a collaboration, perhaps it wouldn't have hurt so much now?
The pain she is experiencing now is the price she is paying for that delusional wish.
Lin Wei reached out and placed her hand on her lower abdomen.
Everything in Jiangcheng will soon come to an end.
Once she gives birth to the baby, she will have a little life that is completely her own.
She will give the baby all her love.
Keep him away from these wealthy families and their hypocrisy and indifference.
She can watch him grow from a tiny little dumpling into an independent and vibrant individual.
This is the best gift God has given her after her rebirth.

A private clubhouse atop Yunxi Bend Mountain.
In the wide corridor, two rows of bodyguards in black stood facing each other.
On one side were the people Gu Jingcheng brought.
On the other side were Chen Jinhuai's men.
Both forces were equally powerful.
Gu Jingcheng and Chen Jinhuai walked one after the other.
They walked toward the private room that Jiang Kai had specially prepared.
Inside the private room, the luxury remained unchanged.
Two men sat facing each other on a black leather sofa.
The air was thick with the smell of gunpowder.
Gu Jingcheng casually rested his hand on the armrest of the sofa.
His voice carried the aura of someone in a superior position.
"Old classmate, it's been a long time."
Chen Jinhuai's lips curled into a cold smile, full of provocation.
"Old classmate? Gu Jingcheng, we share the same blood."
What, you don't want to admit it?
Even if Bai Qianqian is rendered useless, I can still achieve my goal.
Gu Jingcheng raised his eyes and glanced at him indifferently.
His eyes held a condescending indifference.
"Did you really have to push things to this point?"
"As long as you retract your statement and publicly clarify, the Gu family can let you and your mother off the hook."
Chen Jinhuai shrugged, as if he had heard the biggest joke in the world.
The laughter then grew louder and louder.
The laughter was full of sarcasm and a sense of certainty.
"Ha...hahaha...let us off the hook?"
You two, father and son, are truly hypocritical to the same degree.
They can spout grand and eloquent phrases with ease.
"Now you're scared? Worried that the Gu family's reputation will be completely ruined?"
When they abandoned my mother like trash, how could they not feel any fear?
When she knelt at the Gu family's door, pleading and begging...
Where is your pity and fear, you who care about your families?
Gu Jingcheng looked at Chen Jinhuai quietly.
Only after Chen Jinhuai's loss of control subsided did Gu Jingcheng turn his head to the side.
She gave Qiu Cheng a look, and Qiu Cheng placed the file bag on the coffee table.
Gu Jingcheng's gaze fell on Chen Jinhuai's face.
"The 'past' between your mother and my father,"
All the evidence and records are here.
"Take a good look at what the truth is!"
