Chapter 129 The Spoiled Little Troublemaker (42)
As the saying goes, a new official starts with three things.
On the power stage of this city, the newly appointed mayor Gu Qingyu was like a gust of cold wind, whistling and instantly changing the entire official ecology.
Although he is such a young man, he is so experienced, calm and flawless in his actions, and there is almost no flaw to be found.
So much so that those bosses who are usually so awe-inspiring are now trembling with fear, fearing that they will follow in the same fate as the Ning family if they are not careful.
You know, the Ning family used to be very famous in the upper-class social circles, and attracted countless envious eyes.
However, the Ning family's sudden misfortune also became a topic of conversation among everyone after dinner.
Ning Qingwu, the eldest daughter of the Ning family, fell from the clouds to the mud overnight. Her father was imprisoned, her mother died early, and the family property was taken away by the adopted son of the former head of the Ning family. Even Prince Jiang, who cared for her the most, seemed to no longer care about her.
Just think about it, how many people were jealous of the eldest daughter of the Ning family who was loved by everyone!
Those rich young ladies who had always believed that she was lucky shook their heads and sighed.
They were originally full of envy and jealousy towards Qingwu, but now they only have pity left.
At the same time, many rich second-generations who coveted her graceful beauty were eager to witness with their own eyes how this once proud princess fell from the clouds to the mortal world, and imagined whether they would have the chance to touch that beauty.
Everyone thought that Qingwu's life would become dull and bleak from then on.
Suddenly, someone saw Mayor Gu, who was as cold and calm as a Buddha, with a happy face and taking Miss Ning to choose a wedding ring.
Wedding ring???
According to those who were fortunate enough to witness this scene, Miss Ning was still as spoiled and willful as ever, and was very picky when choosing a ring. It took her a long time to finally choose one that satisfied her.
Either he complained that this one was not pure enough, or that one was too small, but Mayor Gu, who was busy with his affairs and had a lot of things to do, stayed by her side gently throughout the whole process.
No matter how Miss Ning acted coquettishly and mischievously, he always had a smile on his face and doted on her with a good temper. It could almost be said that he obeyed her in everything.
Not only that, during the entire process, Mayor Gu always held Miss Ning's hand tightly, not letting go even for a second.
People who saw this scene could hardly believe their eyes, and even wondered if the world had become too fantastical and bizarre.
Unfortunately, before the man could take a few more glances, he was quickly discovered by the accompanying bodyguards.
Just when he was filled with panic and thought he had accidentally discovered a shocking secret and was about to be killed, he saw that the high and mighty, unreachable Mayor Gu actually spoke in person -
He frankly admitted that he and Qingwu had already obtained a marriage certificate and revealed that they would hold their wedding soon.
He was in a trance.
The news spread from one person to ten, from ten to a hundred, and finally everyone knew about it.
Qingwu, who was just being pitied and laughed at by everyone, suddenly transformed herself and became the mayor's wife.
In this real world, money is hard to earn, but power is even harder to come by.
If Qingwu finally chose to marry into a wealthy family like Jiang Zhiran, perhaps people would still sigh with envy and jealousy;
However, when the person she married changed to the extremely powerful Gu Qingyu, everyone present fell silent. They didn't even have the courage to express their opinions. They all became cautious in their words and actions, fearing that the slightest mistake would bring disaster upon themselves.
At the same time, Qing Wu also announced to the public at the first opportunity that she had completely severed the father-daughter relationship between her and Feng Huangnan.
Moreover, she mercilessly exposed to the public Feng Huangnan's hypocritical behavior of saying one thing in front of others and another behind their backs over the years, as well as his secret attempts to seize the interests of the Ning family by any means necessary.
Thanks to Gu Qingyu's clever operation behind the scenes, everyone soon realized that Qingwu was just a poor girl whose father was calculating and whose mother died early.
All along, her arrogance and willfulness were actually just a way of self-protection.
At this point, all the accusations and criticisms directed at her disappeared in an instant. All her faults seemed to no longer be important, but instead turned into helpless acts that could be understood and forgiven.
Everyone had to suppress the complicated thoughts in their hearts and send sincere blessings to Gu Qingyu and Qingwu.
The background of Gu Qingyu, the young and promising mayor whose power is growing, is unfathomable. No one dares to speak, but various speculations gradually increase.
For example, some people believe that Gu Qingyu went to such great lengths to attack the Ning family first just to seize the beauty.
Some people speculated that his real goal was not the Jiang family, so he deliberately married Jiang Zhiran's ex-fiancée.
However, this statement was soon questioned by some people: With Gu Qingyu's current status and strength, is it really necessary to sacrifice his marriage to achieve his goal?
Besides, how could Young Master Jiang be a soft persimmon that could be bullied by anyone?
Yes! Jiang, Young Master Jiang!
The person who was secretly speculating behind the scenes suddenly said in horror: "No, although the Ning family was in trouble and the Jiang family did not help, it seems that from the beginning to the end, there has been no news of Young Master Jiang and the eldest daughter of the Ning family canceling their engagement, right?"
The originally noisy atmosphere suddenly became silent.
Everyone's expression gradually changed from confusion to horror——
The Jiang Group, which is at the center of the topic, is in dire straits and no one dares to act rashly.
The closer one is to Jiang Zhiran, the more clearly one can feel that Jiang Zhiran is about to go crazy.
Another person who was almost going crazy was Yan Chenli.
He never expected that just after he was filled with joy and finally got rid of Jiang Zhiran who kept pestering him after going through so much hardship—
He rushed back to the Ning family excitedly just to see the little princess he had been thinking about, but what awaited him was such a cold and empty room.
… She took nothing, she wanted nothing.
Not to mention him.
Facing the empty Ning family, Yan Chenli gradually became confused. If the little princess was gone, then what was the point of having this Ning family...?
