In the past, the He family thought that Gu Zheng was just an illegitimate child who was struggling at death's door under the Gu family's suppression. No one expected him to actually establish Gu Corporation in Li City and beco the business emperor everyone admired.
Actually, she had always liked Gu Zheng. The aura this man exuded fascinated her, but because he was an illegitimate son, she had never expressed her feelings. Now that she was finally back, Gu Zheng had beco distant.
Gu Zheng's voice was low and calm. "I'm not familiar with you, Miss He. You don't have to worry about . There's no need."
He Wenxian's heart ached, and her eyes were filled with sadness.
"Co here." Qiao Xi waved at He Wenyin. When He Wenyin saw Qiao Xi's face, she could not resist. Regardless of the current situation, her body could not help but walk up to Qiao Xi. She stamred, "W-What's wrong?"
"I'll give you a gift." Qiao Xi's tone was gentle.
He Wenyin turned around and looked at He Wenxian as if she was asking for her sister's approval. He Wenxian naturally smiled and nodded. "Wenyin, it seems that Mrs. Gu likes you very much. Just accept the gift from Mrs. Gu. You must thank her properly."
Qiao Xi lowered her eyes and ignored her. Instead, she brought He Wenyin into the house and took out a report from her bag. "Give this to your master."
He Wenyin took it and saw what was on it. Her eyes widened. This report was the research data of a new drug. She and her master had been studying it for a long ti, but they had yet to confirm the ratio of the drug. The report in front of her contained detailed experintal data and the specific operation thod.
Before He Wenyin could react, Qiao Xi stuffed another jade token into her hands. "Give this to Mr. Liao too."
He Wenyin took a closer look. This was actually the dical Order of the dical Association. Only the core mbers of the dical Association were qualified to get it. She asked in shock, "Why is Master's jade token with you? Y-You…"
"Of course, it's because he lent it to , so this report is my thank-you gift."
He Wenyin flipped through the report excitedly and jumped up. "Mrs. Gu, you're too outstanding!"
Qiao Xi smiled. It turned out that this woman was Mr. Liao's disciple. She couldn't help but ask, "He Wenyin, do you know what would've happened to you had you really poisoned ?"
He Wenyin's eyes widened. "How could I have poisoned you?"
Qiao Xi said, "But your sister said that you used to poison people. She said that you were jealous of my beauty, so that's why she guessed that you poisoned . Why would she think that?"
He Wenyin frowned and said in a low voice, "It's probably because Sister has been too tired recently, so…"
Qiao Xi really did not understand why Mr. Liao would take an innocent little girl as his disciple. She did not want to say anything else and turned to leave.
"Wait a minute!" He Wenyin shouted. "Actually, I know you're giving a reminder, but this is my business. Anyway, thank you. I'll be careful."
Qiao Xi smiled. After she and Gu Zheng left, He Wenyin walked up to He Wenxian.
He Wenxian was still gentle. "Wenyin, I've already talked to Ah Zheng. This ti, he won't open a back door for the He family, but he won't make things difficult for us either. I'm already very satisfied with this.
"We've only been away for a few years, but Ah Zheng is already married. Do you still rember how you used to follow behind Ah Zheng? Do you feel terrible when you see Mrs. Gu now?"
The look in He Wenyin's eyes changed. She lowered her head and said, "I don't feel bad anymore. Sister, you don't have to comfort ."
"Yes, Wenyin, you're so obedient. I was just afraid that you would make a mistake on impulse. I misunderstood you today. It's better for to rush up and reprimand you than for Ah Zheng to punish you personally, right? Can you understand my intentions?"
He Wenyin: "…"
She had a secret, so she couldn't leave the He family yet. Hence, she hesitated for a mont and smiled innocently. "I understand, Sister. You're so good to ."
He Wenxian's eyes were filled with contempt. What a fool. She managed to deceive He Wenyin with just a few words. A bastard of unknown origin wanted to occupy the identity of a daughter of the He family. Was she worthy?
In the living room.
The butler went forward and reported, "President, Madam, the two misses from the He family have left."
Gu Zheng gestured for him to leave, then raised his eyebrows and looked at Qiao Xi. "Mrs. Gu, don't you have anything to ask?"
The corners of Qiao Xi's mouth curled up into a sly smile. "Ah Zheng, I heard that you used to have a close relationship with the He family. Second Miss He has loved you since you were young. The He family even said that they would let her grow up and marry you! Is that true?"
