Suddenly, the atmosphere at the scene became weird. At this moment, what the reporters were most interested in was not the matter of Wen's mother, but the matter of Gu Jianming of the Gu family and the so-called "current Mrs. Gu". After all, they basically knew everything about Wen's mother. The reason they rushed here this time was to watch the fight. When the time came, they would directly post a big headline on the Internet, broadcasting the fight between the wealthy Gu family live.
And now, with Mother Wen's two or three words, it seemed as if they could not only witness the fierce battle, but also reveal more secrets of the wealthy family. Suddenly, the focus seemed to shift. In unison, the reporters' cameras stopped panning at Mother Wen and shifted directly to focus on Gu Jianming and the mistress. They almost chased after them and demanded to know what was going on. Was what the original wife said true? Did she only give 200,000 yuan? Were they still not divorced?
Suddenly, Gu Jianming's face turned ugly, especially when he saw the cameras that were shooting at him. He felt even more angry inside. After all, Gu Jianming was a man, and men still had to have dignity. What's more, he was a businessman. If such a report were to spread, there would probably be many people in the business circle who would laugh at him, and his business would probably fail.
When he thought of this, Gu Jianming's original feeling of pity for Wen's mother when he saw her so thin, and the desire to compensate her, disappeared. He felt that the woman in front of him did not consider the situation at all and said such words in front of the reporters. Wasn't she trying to ruin him?
No, Gu Jianming couldn't let this end. Now, the only thing that could pull the advantage back here was... those millions. That's right, although Wen He really didn't take that much, only 200,000. Although it wasn't true, most people believed it now, didn't they? What if he insisted that he really gave Wen He millions? At that time, he really gave it, but Wen He just didn't take it.
Doing so might cause some damage to Wen He's reputation, but it didn't matter. He would just double the compensation to her later. If the girl's reputation was damaged because of this incident and she couldn't find a good partner, he could also help introduce her to young talents. But his reputation, Gu Jianming's, could not be ruined. If it was, the Gu family would be finished.
Thinking of this, Gu Jianming's facial features were a little distorted. He gritted his teeth and changed the subject directly, saying to Wen's mother, "Okay! That's enough! You don't have to say anything more. Don't you just want money? Aren't the millions you had before enough? If you want how much, just tell me directly. There's no need to threaten me, Gu Jianming, like this. It's useless!"
Huh...? Gu Jianming's words imply... a direct admission of the rumor. Sure enough, he took several million, not just 200,000. Who would only take 200,000? After all, the Gu family is a wealthy one, so how could it be only 200,000? Mother Wen had lied!
Public opinion suddenly became complicated again. After all, this time, it was not spread from some photos or short videos, but one of the parties involved directly admitted it, and implicitly admitted the fact that Wen He "threatened" Gu Jianming and took several million!
Mother Wen saw all of this, including the changing expressions on Gu Jianming's face. Her heart turned cold. She suddenly understood what Xiao He had meant when she said she couldn't stay in that home any longer. How cruel it had been to force her to return to the Gu family and fight for what belonged to her!
Gu Jianming had long since changed, becoming unrecognizable. He was no longer the gentle and considerate husband she had known. Or perhaps, she had never seen Gu Jianming's true self. Yes, he was a gentle and considerate husband, but he wasn't just gentle and considerate to her; he could be even more gentle and considerate to other women. Compared to that, the Gu Jianming with his ugly, twisted expression now seemed to be the real Gu Jianming. For his own sake, he could twist white into black, even sacrificing Wen He's reputation!
Suddenly, Mother Wen felt like everything was meaningless. She even felt extremely regretful. What had she been doing all these past ten years of madness for? Was it to win back such a disgusting man? Or to fight for such a disgusting Gu family? No, she didn't want it. She didn't need it anymore, never again! She had only thought that if Xiao He could return to the Gu family and win back everything that belonged to her, she would be able to live a good life. After all, she was the only legitimate heir to the Gu family.
But she was wrong, completely wrong. She was even more fortunate that her child hadn't listened to her and ended up in this disgusting Gu family. Gu Jianming's behavior was now clear, telling her plainly that even if the child had legitimately returned to the Gu family, he would have been subjected to oppression and humiliation, not like he was now, sitting by her bedside with such a bright smile, sharing her joy and happiness.
This is enough. She just wants her children to be safe and happy. No amount of money can make up for this.
Suddenly, she seemed to hear a "buzzing" sound, and the noise in her ears suddenly disappeared. Everything around her became extremely clear. Mother Wen even felt that her brain, which had been dizzy for more than ten years, was not as clear as it was at this moment. She was even very clear-headed and calm and knew what she was going to do next.
Mother Wen just listened to Gu Jianming's nonsense quietly, and then asked calmly, "How much is it in total?"
How much? Logically, shouldn't this woman refute him and call him a liar? He'd even thought of how to put the pressure on her later, so why would this woman suddenly ask such a question?
Gu Jianming was stunned for a moment, completely unsure of the significance of Mother Wen's question. However, answering such a question seemed to have no disadvantages for him. After thinking about it, he cruelly raised a large number, stretched out his palm, and said, "Five million, a total of five million."
"Okay, very good, I get it. No matter what I say, as long as you insist on saying it, no one will believe me. After all, I have no evidence."
"But it doesn't matter. I don't want to be entangled with you anymore, or rather, I don't want to have anything to do with you anymore. Just as you wish, let's get a divorce. Xiaohe will be mine, and the property will be divided in half. The five million will be directly deducted from that property! Just like this, let's part ways cleanly and clearly, Gu Jianming."
The author has something to say: I don’t have enough time to code today, I will make up for it tomorrow~
