Chapter 217: Drunken Confession



She wore it close to her skin all the time.

The man's fingertips were warm, and Su Xiaoli felt a little itchy when he touched her.

"Of course I need it. It's very cost-effective whether for self-use or for investment appreciation." Su Xiaoli, who came here with a "golden finger", has been wanting to buy a house in Beijing for a long time.

She had already planned on spending a lot of money this time and buying at least four sets.

"Buy it for myself, buy it for my mother, buy it for you, buy it for Ling Yi..." Su Xiaoli was halfway through her words when she suddenly realized that Gu Feihan didn't like that person.

The man's hand paused.

"So you went to Qingzhou and met him too?" Gu Feihan's tone suddenly became even colder than in the afternoon.

Su Xiaoli didn't say anything.

"Is that so?" Gu Feihan's tone dropped to freezing point, and his hands clasped on her waist were tense and stiff.

Su Xiaoli was silent for two seconds and was slightly discouraged.

Fortunately, alcohol can indeed give cowards courage.

The gallbladder is the official in charge of justice, and decisions are made from it.

Su Xiaoli, who had finished drinking the red wine, looked up at Gu Feihan and said resolutely, "Yes."

She's had enough.

If Su Xiaoli doesn't tell Gu Feihan about Ling Yicheng's past and changes, she won't be able to bear such a big secret.

She didn't want to wait until the detonation of the thunderbolt and then let Gu Feihan bear the consequences with her.

What if it was really exposed one day that Gu Feihan was Ms. Lin's biological son and she had not yet married into the family? Based on Su Xiaoli's understanding of Ms. Lin's cultivation, Ms. Lin would not criticize her, but would definitely blame her own son.

While there is still time and opportunities to make amends, Gu Feihan is so smart, he will definitely have a better way.

Maybe he has what I can't do. At worst, wouldn't it be better for the two of us to discuss it together? Also, they are obviously good people, so where does the deep hatred come from?

That’s right, Ling Yicheng didn’t do any good things before, but now he has been trying hard to get on the right track!

Even if it was not for Ling Yicheng himself, but for Lin Yaru, as Ms. Lin's son, would Gu Feihan have to despise Ling Yicheng for the rest of his life? Obviously, Gu Feihan was not such a person. At least the one Su Xiaoli knew was a man with a broad mind.

She didn't want her beloved Gu Feihan to become a heartless and cold-blooded person.

So now, she wanted to tell Gu Feihan everything.

Gu Feihan...his heart ached, and even breathing hurt.

He really didn't understand - Su Xiaoli, what was going on with this resolute expression, as if she was ready to go through fire and water and take on this obligation?

Just for a wild kid, even if he could prove that he was a member of the Lin family? Gu Feihan was sure that the matter was far more serious than he had imagined.

Su Xiaoli would not treat irrelevant people like this.

She would only be so protective of her family, her lover, and those who are truly in her heart.

So, what is Lin Yicheng to her? If Lin Yicheng and her...

Gu Feihan didn't dare to think about it anymore.

Su Xiaoli let out a long sigh, rubbed her head which was a little dizzy from drinking, got down from Gu Feihan's legs, and sat next to him.

She grabbed his slender fingers and rubbed them twice before looking directly into Gu Feihan's eyes. She calmed herself down and said seriously, "Next, don't interrupt me when I say something. You must wait until I finish, okay?"

Gu Fei had a cold face, neither nodded nor shook his head, and continued to remain silent.

Su Xiaoli spoke again, with a resounding voice:

"I know you have never liked him, and you may have suspected that he was doing something crooked, but you still helped him hide it from your mother. So when I went to your house this time, your aunt didn't ask me about it, right?"

Gu Feihan did not comment.

Su Xiaoli continued: "I want to apologize to you for this matter, because your suspicion was correct. At first I didn't want to make my aunt worry, so I didn't tell her everything.

Who knew that I would keep it a secret until now? I can’t bear it anymore.

You are the person I trust the most, I can only choose you, let's bear this secret together, okay? Just think of it as helping me."

Gu Feihan's expression relaxed slightly.

Su Xiaoli continued: "When we two eavesdropped on the rainy day in Qingzhou, a voice said that there was an old man at the Pinghui, and the old man's business was very wide, including Pinghui, high-interest dai, and smuggling...

It is highly likely that the old man is doing all the dark businesses we know, and Lin Yicheng is in charge of underground gambling and usury, and maybe there are some other things now.

His name there was Ling Yicheng.

He transferred 200,000 yuan to me before, and during the Spring Festival, he invested another 100,000 yuan in the cosmetics company, accounting for 20% of the shares. Now he has opened a clean import and export trading company, and I also own 20% of the shares.

These are all clean, without a drop of blood or a speck of black.

Now, Pinghui has collapsed, a lot of underground businesses have gone bankrupt, the old man has no followers, and they are trying hard to pull him down a darker path.

I don't want to lose a partner, and I don't want my aunt to finally get news about the Lin family, only to end up with someone behind bars for the rest of his life.

So I will use part of the 200,000 to buy him a house in Beijing, just to tell him that he has a home in Beijing, next to his family.

I'm betting that he is not a heartless person, he has warm blood. Family and a home are his greatest hope to not fall into depravity again.

I'm not sure if I can win the bet, but I want to give it a try, that's all."

A long and heartfelt confession.

Now, Su Xiaoli had a calm and... dead pig-in-the-face expression, although there was hope in her eyes - she really hoped that Gu Feihan could understand and support her.

Gu Feihan is still digesting.

The first half was pretty much the same as what he had investigated. As for the second half, he had occasionally heard Su Xiaoli making phone calls a few times, and it vaguely matched the story. He just didn't expect that the person on the other end of the line was Lin Yicheng, or "Ling Yicheng."

What he didn't expect was that he increased his share in the medical device factory and guarded against Lu Sinian's attack, but lost to Lin Yicheng in the cosmetics business.

Su Xiaoli, you really are a cunning rabbit with three burrows.

Gu Feihan got a headache when he thought of this.

If he wants to pull Lin Yicheng out of the dark quagmire, at the moment, he won't be able to do better than Xiaoli.

Intellectually speaking, on the surface he could accept the information and facts that Xiao Li told him, but deeper down, was there anything else?

Su Xiaoli didn't tell him what he wanted to hear most.

Even if Su Xiaoli is handling this matter as a "relative" or "partner", what about Lin Yiben himself?

It certainly won’t be that simple.

But no matter what, right now Su Xiaoli has chosen me because I am the person she trusts the most, and she is willing to tell me everything.

This is true.

After a long while, he spoke indifferently, his voice was extremely cold, and he spoke sparingly: "Okay, I will share the responsibility with you."

Su Xiaoli breathed a sigh of relief visibly.

That’s exactly what I said!
