Chapter 302: The Fake Heiress (11)
“But Mom feels sad whenever she thinks about you suffering. That nanny is absolutely despicable. We’ve already called the police, and she’ll be caught sooner or later. She’ll definitely pay the price.”
When Li's mother thought of the wicked person who had separated her and her daughter for twenty years, she hated her to death. She wanted nothing more than to eat her flesh, drink her blood, and ask her if she had treated her badly back then. Why did she steal her daughter?
Mr. Li did not give up and made several phone calls, but his daughter Xiaoqing rejected him without hesitation. He investigated the boy Xiaoqing supposedly liked and found that things were really complicated.
After his father's business failed, he developed an alcoholic disorder. His mother is mentally ill, and he himself dropped out of high school and never went to college. Now he is unemployed and has to take care of his mentally ill mother and endure his alcoholic and abusive father. He also has a ten-year-old brother to support. This situation has destined him to live a life of hardship.
Aside from her good looks, she has absolutely nothing to offer.
Has Xiaoqing gone mad? She went to the countryside and actually fell for this guy.
After thinking it over, Mr. Li realized that since Xiao Qing was still wary of him and didn't want to come back to the house, he could only try to find another way to deal with her.
Soon after, the butler went to the Gu family with a check.
Upon seeing Gu Qian, the butler wondered if it was just his imagination, but he sensed an unfathomable aura emanating from this young country boy, one that seemed completely out of place in the village. However, looking at the surroundings and Gu Yao beside him, he dismissed his thoughts and directly handed the check to Gu Qian.
"This is what President Li gave to Mr. Gu. One million is enough for your family to get out of the current predicament. Moreover, President Li has also helped you contact an expert in Lin City who specializes in mental illness. You can take your mother to get treatment, and your brother's school registration can also be resolved. As for you, I know you were the top science student that year. If you are willing, President Li will let you study in the senior year of high school and then continue to take the college entrance examination."
Gu Qian's emotions were not written on his face, which made the housekeeper unable to figure him out for a while. However, when they investigated his educational background, the fact that he was the top scorer in the college entrance examination did shock them. It was a pity that the burden of his family had caused him to lose all of this, and he could only retreat to this poor and backward village and live a difficult life.
He must be resentful, right?
As expected of President Li, he resolved all of his difficulties in one go, which would have impressed any normal person.
Moreover, according to President Li, this young lady and Gu Qian could not possibly have any relationship. It is highly likely that this is just an excuse for refusing to return to the Li family, and the two are just putting on an act.
If that's the case, then Gu Qian has even less reason to refuse.
"Then what do you need me to do?" Gu Qian asked.
Butler: "It's simple. Leave here and never have any further contact with Miss Qing."
Gu Qian sneered, "I won't accept it."
Butler: "What?" He didn't seem to have heard Gu Qian's words clearly, but Gu Qian quickly repeated, "I don't want these things. You can take them back. Xiao Qing and I are truly in love."
"Are you crazy? That's a million dollars! And you don't want to treat your mother's illness anymore?"
Gu Qian laughed and said, "It's a very tempting offer, but I don't believe there's such a thing as a free lunch. I would never give up Xiao Qing just for these things. I'll find a way to treat my mother's illness, so don't worry about it."
The housekeeper couldn't understand why Gu Qian would refuse him.
He was quickly kicked out of the Gu family by Gu Qian. He called President Li to explain the situation, and the other party was also surprised, obviously not expecting that Gu Qian would have such backbone.
After Wen Wan learned all this, she felt that the male lead was indeed the male lead, and he would not betray her for these benefits. He was simply too reliable.
It wasn't for nothing that she saved Gu's mother. Gu's mother's condition is becoming more and more stable, and she hasn't had a relapse in a long time. If she doesn't get any stimulation in the future, she will be safe for the time being.
Soon, Gu Qian removed the lock from Gu's mother's hand, and Gu's mother came downstairs to live with her two sons. The happiest person was Gu Yao, who doted on his mother every day. He hoped that this good mother could stay like this forever.
Gu's mother looked at Gu Qian with guilt in her eyes.
"Xiao Qian, are you with Grandma Shen's granddaughter?"
Gu Qian said, "We are just ordinary friends. It was all just an act. She just didn't want to go back."
“It’s all my fault for dragging you down, Xiaoqian. Do you still want to go to school? I don’t need to take care of you now. I’ve saved up some money over the years that your father didn’t get. Your student status is still valid. Go to school and take the college entrance exam.”
Gu Qian shook his head. "That money should be saved for Yao Yao's schooling. I've forgotten most of what I learned, so I won't waste my time on it."
Gu Yao shook his head. "My brother is going to university."
"I'm not going."
Gu's mother: "..."
Finally, she took Gu Qian's hand and said, "You have to go. I know you want to go. I'll handle things at home. I'll go borrow some money from my family first. Now that I'm healthier, I can find some work to supplement our income. Once you go to university and become successful, we'll definitely be able to live a good life. I don't want you to stay in this village and waste your time and talent."
Gu Qian still didn't budge.
So Gu's mother went directly to Wen Wan. When Wen Wan heard that Gu's mother wanted Gu Qian to go to school, she agreed. After all, Gu Qian was going to be a great male lead in the future. If he stayed in this poor village and didn't leave, and there was no stimulation from his ex-girlfriend, who was his dark moonlight, in the original plot, his mother and younger brother wouldn't have died. So how could he survive and make a name for himself?
Clearly, going to school and then to university is the most advantageous path for the male protagonist.
"Xiaoqing, can you help me persuade Xiaoqian? He doesn't want to."
Wen Wan agreed, "I will try to persuade him, Auntie, don't worry."
Wen Wan brought up the matter several times afterward, but Gu Qian disagreed. Wen Wan had no choice but to keep persuading him until he figured it out one day.
...
Unable to persuade Gu Qian, Li's father harassed Wen Wan again, and even gave Lin Baiyu the address when Lin Baiyu asked for it.
No one expected that Lin Baiyu would actually go there.
When Wen Wan returned home from the convenience store, she saw the incongruous luxury car and the young man standing outside it.
He is handsome and has an outstanding temperament.
The system poured cold water on the host's enjoyment, stating, "[This is Lin Baiyu, the young master of the Lin family, your fiancé.]"
Wen Yan: "..."
Ah, Wen Wan turned to leave, but Lin Baiyu called her back. He walked over gently and looked at Wen Wan, "Xiao Qing, do you still remember me?"
He continued talking, still holding Wen Wan's hand. Wen Wan looked at the villagers around her. That's how it is in this village; they love to watch the excitement, especially the Shen family recently, which has been particularly lively.
