Chapter 58

The next day, Mo Keyu came to work as usual.

Everything was normal in the company, except that Mr. Hou from the board of directors looked at her with complicated eyes. The person following him was no longer the hot and beautiful secretary from before, but the pretty boy secretary who had just been transferred here yesterday.

Rather than a complicated look, it would be better to say that it contained a bit of resentment.

"Good morning, Uncle Hou." Mo Keyu greeted him.

Even if Mr. Hou had prejudices in his heart, he would be wrong if he did not say hello.

He forced a smile: "Morning."

Mo Keyu stopped in front of the male secretary, turned his ear to the side, and waited for the other party to greet him with a playful expression.

President Hou gave the male secretary a look, and the secretary gritted his teeth:

"Morning... Mr. Mo."

[Ahahahahahahahahaha——]

Mo Keyu was laughing wildly in his heart, and Mr. Hou only felt a buzzing sound of a boiling kettle in his head. It took him a long time to realize that it was laughter.

Why is there someone in my head laughing like boiling water?

This has happened to Mr. Hou more than once. He also became inexplicably confused when he met Mo Keyu before.

He looked at the secretary next to him, but the young secretary didn't react at all.

Could it be that Mo Zhengtian's daughter was born to be his nemesis?

After hearing the greetings from these two people, Mo Keyu left with satisfaction.

She used the system to complete today's work in an hour at work, and then began to check Baozi Entertainment's latest cooperation.

During this time, Wu Xiaotian followed a large crew. Unexpectedly, he turned out to be quite talented in acting and successfully got the role of the third male lead. Han Suyi participated in other variety shows. Under the guidance of Li Pingwei, he became more and more variety-savvy and gained a lot of popularity.

Baozi Entertainment is thriving.

No one dared to criticize her entertainment company in public opinion. After all, the largest shareholder in the hot search entertainment software is the Shen family.

On the day of the Gu family's birthday party, Mo Keyu simply dressed up casually and went there.

The Gu family's mansion is comparable to that of the Shen family. If you want to say what makes the Gu family better than the Shen family, it is probably that they have more people.

Mo Keyu came to Gu's house alone and didn't even tell his father.

Walking in the hall, there were many dignitaries, many of whom came here for the sake of the Gu family's face, and there were also a large number of relatives who came from the Gu family.

"Small cake!"

Mo Keyu had sharp eyes and saw a cake cart. She followed the cart to the small garden outside.

There were several servants taking care of the garden, and several young masters and young ladies were taking photos in the garden.

At this moment, several angry shouts came from deep in the yard.

"Look at how stupid you are!!"

The last sentence was particularly loud, and the people around were startled and looked around for the source of the sound.

The man's voice was rough and slightly hoarse, as if there was a mouthful of phlegm stuck in his throat that couldn't come down.

Someone who was taking care of the garden heard the sound, dropped his work and immediately ran towards the direction of the sound, and then the angry shouting subsided.

A man came out from the flowers. His facial features were not bad, but his face was fierce and his sharp triangular eyes made people feel a little scared. Mo Keyu felt a little uncomfortable just by looking at him from a distance.

He saw many guests coming to the garden and he forced a hospitable smile on his face as if nothing had happened.

[The eldest son of the Gu family, Gu Qun, 30 years old, the eldest son of Gu De, his mother is Huang Lanzhi, he was the one who asked someone to drug Shen Mingli and frame you.]

[It turns out that the legendary Mr. Gu who took drastic measures is the eldest son of the Gu family. With such stupid behavior, I thought it was done by Mr. Gu from another branch.]

Mo Keyu was a little surprised.

It's just that the feeling of knowing that the lawless criminal is right in front of you but being unable to do anything is too maddening.

The internet celebrity insisted that he was the one who took the drastic measure, but the evidence of who gave the instructions had long been destroyed.

Without evidence, it would be difficult to accuse the person behind it even if we knew who it was. She knew it by cheating in the system. In real life, it takes a lot of time and energy to investigate something, and you may not get a satisfactory result.

Therefore, even if she knew that it was Gu Qun who did it, she couldn't do anything to him now.

[Host, he bribed someone from the Shen Group to get the information, and then asked his relatives to arrange for someone to deal with Shen Mingli. Even if he failed, he could use a relative to take the blame.]

[Oh~ I thought the big boss would be so easy to catch. Even if everyone knows that he is the mastermind behind this, they won’t be able to do anything to him.]

Gu Qun patted his clothes. A woman followed him. The woman had red eyes and looked to be in her fifties or sixties. She followed Gu Qun without saying a word.

The two of them walked towards the hall, getting closer and closer to Mo Keyu's sight, and she could see their faces more clearly.

[Hey, how come this 30-year-old Mr. Gu looks like a man in his 50s?]

[Standing together with her mother, she feels like a married couple.]

[No, her mother looks younger than him. She looks like his daughter.]

[How come this young master looks just like my father at such a young age?]

Gu Qun stopped and looked around with a ferocious look on his face. Mo Keyu turned his back and pretended nothing had happened, fearing that he would be targeted by such a person.

When the young masters and young ladies saw his expression, they couldn't help but step aside.

The eldest son of the Gu family is still so scary.

Gu Qun clearly heard someone scolding him, and Huang Lanzhi next to him seemed to hear someone whispering nearby.

"Master, the old man is just looking for you and your wife, but he can't get through on the phone. He wants you to go to the living room quickly."

A servant came running over.

"Tsk, this old man," he waved his hands impatiently, "I know, I know."

The mother and son left quickly, and Mo Keyu followed them to the hall.

The room was filled with guests and was extremely noisy.

She randomly found a corner and sat down. Standing in the middle of the hall was Gu De, and next to him was Huang Lanzhi, who was forcing a smile.

The gifts piled up behind them were higher than his head.

Seeing Gu De, the system's gossip sound never stopped:

[To talk about the Gu family, we have to start from the time of Gu De. The Gu family has more than one heir. In order to gain power for himself, he tried to curry favor with the Huang family, a big family at the time. Huang Lanzhi was deceived by Gu De at the time. After the two got married, she used the power of the Huang family to help Gu De all the time. In the end, Gu De successfully became the heir of the Gu family. ]

[Ah? If Huang Lanzhi is so important, why would his son scold her?]

Mo Keyu didn't quite understand what he heard, so he took a piece of icy watermelon from the table and stuffed it into his mouth.

[Afterwards, the Huang family lost power, and Gu De's true nature was completely exposed. He often stayed out all night. However, Huang Lanzhi had already given birth to Gu Qun, and she thought that with Gu Qun around, her future property would still belong to her child.]

[But...the son she gave birth to wasn't good to her either.]

[Host, the power of genes is very strong. In addition, Gu Qun has been watching how people around him treat Huang Lanzhi since he was a child, and he has been influenced by them and looks down on her.]

[I see, but she is my mother after all, how can I not have any empathy?]

[To be honest, I don’t think Gu Qun is very smart. He follows his mother, and basically all of her property belongs to him. But as for his father… it’s not necessarily the case. Not everyone is Old Man Mo.

[Oh, by the way, since you said that Gu De often stays out all night, does he have someone else outside? Maybe he has a child.]

[Yes, he has been unable to control himself since the Huang family fell into decline. He not only takes care of Gu Qun, but also...]

At this moment, Gu De spoke into the microphone a few times, and the whole audience suddenly became quiet.

Everyone looked at today’s birthday star, Gu De.

"Today we have invited the famous singer Mr. Wang and the WEST band. Thank you all for coming."

Gu De said, smiling with wrinkles all over his face.

There were bursts of applause from the hall. Mo Keyu, who was sitting nearby, also clapped along with them. After the applause stopped, the hall became quiet again.

[So...Gu De has more than one son?]

A voice suddenly appeared in the hall and everyone was stunned. Although the voice was small, it was very clear.

Gu De also stood there in a daze, and Gu Qun's face turned black in an instant.

This is a banquet for a birthday celebrity. Even if everyone knows that Gu De has an illegitimate child, they can't say it in public!

The fact that Gu De had more than one child was not groundless, and it had long been spread in the circle. However, no one dared to say it to his face, after all, there was still a legitimate heir who was not easy to mess with.

Soon, there were sounds of discussion from below. Gu Qun was about to take the microphone to say something when a man in the guest seats stood up and rushed over like an arrow, so fast that only his afterimage could be seen.

Another person below quickly took out his cell phone and turned on the camera to face the people above.

Even the security guards scattered around the hall were unable to react. The man quickly grabbed the microphone and said:

"I am Gu De's son. Twenty-eight years ago, Gu De met my mother and gave birth to me. However, Gu De has never acknowledged me for the sake of his reputation. No matter what, I have Gu family blood flowing in my veins, and I am also a child of the Gu family..."

Before he could finish, Gu Qun grabbed the microphone and the security guard nearby rushed over and threw him to the ground. A few bodyguards came behind and pressed on him, and the scene was chaotic for a while.

[Oh shit oh shit!]

Mo Keyu was stunned, and so were the more than 200 guests present.

There was a burst of exclamations from below. Some people chose to go up to help, some tried to smooth things over, and some quietly took out their phones to take pictures.

[Don't you need an invitation to attend this kind of banquet? How did he get in?]

【Someone is behind this.】

[Oh, that's right. Otherwise, how could an illegitimate child get in? There must be someone behind this. Who has a grudge against the Gu family?]

Mo Keyu took another piece of watermelon. The bright red watermelon was red and crisp.

"Dad~Daddy~Daddy~"

The illegitimate child had been dragged out by five or six bodyguards. He was struggling and calling Gu De "Dad".

[The person who has a grudge against the Gu family... could it be...]

Mo Keyu was shocked. Wasn't he Shen Mingli, the one who was specifically instructed by Gu Qun to drug last time?

After doing such a thing, how could Shen Mingli let him go so easily?

Many people recorded this farce, and after a few minutes, the situation returned to normal.

"It was just a small accident. Young people nowadays are really unexpected. We have already dealt with it. Let's just treat it as a surprise for all our relatives and friends."

Gu De had seen all kinds of storms before, and he remained very calm in front of so many people. He just brushed over such a shocking event with just a few words, without being affected at all.

It was Gu Qun who felt embarrassed.

He is well aware of his father's romantic history, and although he himself has a lot of romantic history, in order to avoid accidentally getting the Gu family's property, he will clean up his own mess.

But Gu De is different. He is still romantic even when he is old and cannot control himself at all.

He has currently found out that Gu De may have five or six illegitimate children outside, or possibly seven or eight. He dealt with them secretly, either by giving them some money to send them away or by threatening them. Almost all the illegitimate children he knew about have been dealt with.

But I didn’t expect that another one would pop up today, and it was one that hadn’t been found before.
