Chapter 8 It wouldn't be good if she saw it.
"Mom, Gu Xuan and I have broken up."
Lin Wei frowned slightly. The Gu family had set a trap for them to fall into!
Seeing that her aunt and Lin Wei disagreed, Lin Yan pretended to try to persuade Lin Wei.
"Sister, for Uncle's sake, don't be stubborn. Brother Gu Xuan is so good to you."
Such a wonderful marriage is something most people would kill for.
"Besides, Brother Gu Xuan is about to become the general manager of the Gu Group."
So many girls dream of marrying him; it's your honor to marry into the Gu family.
Seeing Lin Wei pursing her lips, Lin Yan became even more smug and took Su Qing's hand to sow discord.
"Auntie, you can't find any other way to save Uncle except this road."
My sister is the only daughter of the Lin family; how can she not shoulder this responsibility? It's...it's heartbreaking.
Lin Wei raised her hand and slapped Lin Yan across the face, her gaze sharp.
"It's none of your business how you get to meddle in my affairs!"
Lin Yan was slapped back a few steps, her eyes wide as she covered her face, "Sister, how could you hit me!"
"Lin Wei, what are you doing?"
Gu Xuan had just returned from his uncle's company when he saw this scene, and he felt sorry for Lin Yan and protected her behind him.
"There's a limit to making a scene. What did Yan'er say wrong?"
"It's your honor that you're willing to marry me. Now that your uncle has been arrested..."
Who knows how much profit your father has secretly pocketed from the Gu Group!
"Now that my mom is willing to let you into the family despite past grievances, don't be ungrateful!"
Lin Wei suddenly felt a lump in her throat, unable to breathe, and her anger had nowhere to go.
"Your family is utterly shameless, trying to use my father to blackmail me into marriage."
They're still eyeing my 100 million yuan dowry.
Leaving the Gu family home, she felt as if a huge stone was lodged in her heart; she shouldn't have come to the Gu family at all.
How could the man who had tried to kill her in her past life show her no mercy!
As night fell, Lin Wei stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, looking at the dappled lights outside, and felt a pang of sadness in her heart.
Even after being reborn, she could not escape her predicament.
She watched helplessly as her father was framed and as Lin Yan stirred up trouble at home, causing her to drift further and further away from her mother.
Should we just accept our fate?
No, she has to turn things around and not let the same mistake happen again!
Lin Wei suddenly heard Gu Jingcheng's words: "Call me anytime when you've figured it out, I'll be waiting for you."
A sudden inspiration struck him: whether it was a company matter or his father's problem, as long as Gu Jingcheng intervened, the matter could be resolved.
Lin Wei clenched her fist, made up her mind, picked up her phone, and dialed Gu Jingcheng's number.
Gu Jingcheng's slightly tipsy voice came through the receiver, as if he had been drinking, "Miss Lin, you've come to your senses so quickly?"
As Lin Wei listened to the voice on the other end of the phone, a sudden surge of inexplicable grievance welled up inside her, and she didn't know how to speak for a moment.
"say!"
Lin Wei snapped out of her daze, "I...I..."
"We'll talk when we meet."
Before Lin Wei could finish speaking, the call ended, and she received Gu Jingcheng's address on WeChat.
It is the address of an entertainment club.
In her previous life, she had visited the "Haojiang No. 8" entertainment club, the largest and most luxurious entertainment venue in Jiangcheng.
It was my best friend Shi Nuan's birthday party, and she had arranged for eight male models to be with her.
She finally managed to escape, but ended up in the wrong room and was pinned down by a well-dressed man.
She almost lost her virginity.
She used all her strength to smash the man's head open and escaped.
From then on, she developed a phobia of that place and never went back.
For the sake of the company and her father, Lin Wei did not delay and drove to the club.
Today is the birthday of Jiang Kai, the young master of the Jiang family. Jiang Kai is the only son of the Jiang Group. He loves excitement and is a well-known playboy in Jiangcheng.
This time, only Gu Jingcheng and Shi Yanzhou, the eldest son of the Zhou Group, were invited to the birthday celebration.
The three of them were childhood friends, so close that they could share a pair of pants.
Gu Jingcheng is a very busy man, and coupled with his detached and indifferent nature, he rarely attends such occasions.
I rarely get to come out today, and I got forced to drink quite a bit.
There were also several young models and celebrities that Jiang Kai had invited to liven up the atmosphere in the private room.
One of them noticed that Gu Jingcheng was slightly drunk, so he seized the opportunity to pour a glass of water and sit down next to him.
"Mr. Gu, drinking alcohol makes you feel unwell. Have some hot water to soothe your throat."
Jiang Kai laughed upon seeing this.
"Xin'er, you're so sensible. None of the other girls knew to properly entertain our President Gu all night."
The young models looked at each other, wondering if they were being naive or simply too afraid.
Gu Jingcheng is a big shot standing at the top of Jiangcheng's social hierarchy.
How could ordinary people possibly catch his eye? Even if they wanted to climb higher, they knew their own limitations.
And this newbie model, who just started out, has managed to squeeze into this industry with her reckless and impulsive actions. She's going to have a hard time soon.
Unexpectedly, Gu Jingcheng took the water glass that Xin'er handed him.
Just as Cheng Xin'er was secretly pleased, Gu Jingcheng suddenly raised his hand, pinched her face, and poured water into her mouth without any tenderness.
Cheng Xin'er choked and was soaked, falling off the sofa.
"You dare to drug me? You're asking for trouble!"
Gu Jingcheng casually tossed the water glass aside, and it landed next to Cheng Xin'er's legs, shattering instantly.
"President Gu, I was wrong... I was wrong, please... please forgive me..." Fan Xin'er begged for forgiveness repeatedly.
Jiang Kai, his face grim, immediately ordered the security guards to drag the man out, calling him a disgrace.
Seeing that Gu Jingcheng's eyes were not right, Jiang Kai quickly changed the subject.
"Brother Jing, there are so many pretty girls, and you haven't taken a liking to any of them. You wouldn't actually be interested in that kind of thing..."
"Jiang Kai, you've had too much to drink."
Shi Yanzhou interrupted sharply from the side.
Who is Gu Jingcheng? He's the Yama of Jiangcheng's business world. The last person who told him to his face that he was no good has already been thrown into the sea to feed the sharks.
Even if they have a good relationship, how can a man's pride allow someone to say no to his face, especially since Gu Jingcheng is now in a high position?
Shi Yanzhou took a deep breath. "Jingcheng, Jiang Kai has drunk too much. Ignore him."
"It's alright. A friend is coming to pick me up in a bit, it wouldn't be good if she saw me."
"Damn, Jing-ge, a girlfriend? You've been keeping it a secret for so long."
Jiang Kai suddenly felt that the young model in his arms was no longer appealing, and leaned close to Gu Jingcheng with a gossipy look on his face.
"Brother Jing, give us a hint, whose daughter is she? Is she as beautiful as an angel?"
"Jingcheng, I'm curious too, what kind of girl do you like?"
"Ordinary friends".
The door to the private room was pushed open, and Gu Jingcheng looked at the woman at the door.
The hazy blue sundress had bare arms and calves, and the white skin was almost dazzling.
Her long, black, curly hair was casually draped over her shoulders, and as she walked forward, the ends of her hair and the hem of her skirt swayed together.
She is both alluring and seductive, captivating people without even realizing it.
Lin Wei glanced at the scantily clad young female models inside, a fleeting hint of disdain flashing in her eyes.
She looked down on rich playboys who indulged in debauchery, and thought that a man of Gu Jingcheng's noble status was different.
But I didn't expect that all men are the same.
Lin Wei suddenly had second thoughts. Was marrying Gu Jingcheng the only option to save the company and her father?
It was too late to escape; Gu Jingcheng was staring straight at her.
