Hello, Heir

Gu Deshou’s silence made Zhuang Nainai’s blood run cold.

Her original guess was also nearer to the truth.

Although the Gu’s were frequently close to bankruptcy, to a family whose financial resource was once worth several hundreds of millions, 500 thousand yuan may only be a single piece of Li Yufeng’s jewelry. But now!

They are now using this affair as a bargaining chip…

Gu Deshou sighed. “Nainai, it’s not that we don’t have 500 thousand, but you must know, with our family situation now, once we are bankrupt, we won’t have a place to stay… You and Mr. Si…”

Without letting him finish, Li Yufeng coldly snorted. “Why are you being so meticulous to that thief?! Our family doesn’t owe her anything, serves her right if she is taken to court! She should count her blessings that we did not sue her! If you have that energy, you should think about how to please Mr. Si so that he’ll go through with the engagement!”

After hearing this, Zhuang Nainai furrowed her brows and said, “My mom isn’t a thief!”

“She is a thief, a thief who steals children! We have witnesses and material evidence, what can you still argue about?”

Zhuang Nainai clenched her fists tightly. “Anyway, according to what we initially agreed, if I help you through this difficult time, you will give me 50 thousand.”

Li Yufeng sneered. “At this moment, have you already helped us?”

With Li Yufeng’s coercion, the remaining feelings of guilt and insecurity in Zhuang Nainai’s heart disappeared.

She paused, her expression returned to normal, and she now had a relaxed expression on her face.

Seeing this, Gu Deshou suddenly stood up excitedly. “Really?”

Li Yufeng also looked at her, revealing an expression of disbelief.

Zhuang Nainai smiled. “It’s true, there should be a report on this coming out tomorrow. You should know, towards other women, he’d always decline advances, but towards me…”

Upon saying this, Zhuang Nainai lowered her head, shyly saying, “He has been busy these last few days, with regards to the wedding and other matters… Dad, we need you to find time to meet the people in his family.”

Gu Deshou repeatedly nodded his head, excitedly rubbing his hands. “This is natural, this is how it should be.”

Zhuang Nainai looked towards him again. “That 500 thousand…”

“When we see the relevant reports tomorrow, we will give it to you,” Li Yufeng said before Gu Deshou could open his mouth to speak.

Zhuang Nainai’s heart sank. She nodded her head then headed to the room that was especially prepared for her to rest in.

As she entered the room, her expression sank all of a sudden. She sat down on the sofa dispiritedly, hugging her own knees.

When the photos get sent out to the public tomorrow, the Gu’s should immediately proceed to the bank to take a loan.

However, when Si Zhengting finds out that she had made use of him, will his anger at that time affect the Gu Corporation?

Zhuang Nainai took a deep breath, hoping it would not be like that. She really had no other choice.

Taking out her cell phone, she found Lin Xi’er’s number from her contacts. She stared at that number, dazed.

…

Late at night…

Si Zhengting stood on the villa’s balcony, surrounded by the smoky air. Cold wind blew and scattered his hair, but it could not blow away his cold expression.

Lifelessly, he looked straight ahead, yet his pupils were not focused. At the moment, his mind was full of the lines Zhuang Nainai had shouted today.

“… Because I still like you, I love you, so I want to marry you!”

“I regret it, I have always liked you, shall we get married?”

Irritably snuffling the cigar in his hands, he picked up his cell phone to call executive assistant Ji Chen. “Clear my schedule for the next two months.”

His executive assistant was stunned. “Sir, may I ask why?”

“I want to prepare for the wedding.”
