Lady Gu Is Too Weak To Fend For Herself

1225 She’s In The President’s Office

Gu Zheng sneered and nodded, but his eyes were red. He did not hide the coldness emanating from his body.

“I’ve already returned the He family’s kindness. We shouldn’t be in contact anymore, but the He family suddenly returned to Li City. They seem to have forgotten about what happened before.”

Gu Zheng knew He Weinian well. He was a true businessman, but he was also a ferocious beast. There must be an important reason for his actions.

At this moment, their car had already stopped at the entrance of Gu Corporation. The staff member saw that Gu Zheng’s car had been parked at the door for some time and thought that it had broken down. He hurriedly went forward and asked warmly, “Mr. Gu, do you need help?”

Qiao Xi glanced at the time. They had actually stayed at the entrance for so long. “Ah Zheng, I’m going to the design department.”

“Xi Xi,” Gu Zheng suddenly said. He grabbed her wrist and instructed softly, “The He family has ill intentions. You have to be careful. But He Wenyin doesn’t have any ill intentions toward us. Instead, she’s filled with hostility toward the He family.”

When Qiao Xi heard his words, the corners of her mouth curled up into a smile before she turned around and left.

As he watched her leave, Gu Zheng’s eyes suddenly turned cold. He asked, “Have you found out about that?”

Song Shiyu felt the coldness around him and was too scared to say anything. Song Shijing said respectfully, “Not yet, President.”

Gu Zheng’s expression changed. “You can’t find any news of He Weinian from when he was overseas?”

“Yes! I keep having the feeling that there’s a powerful force behind the He family. The other party has erased all news of the He family. I can’t find any clues.”

Gu Zheng’s eyes suddenly turned cold, scaring Song Shijing so much that he trembled. “President, please give me a little more time. I’ll do my best to search.”

“There’s no need. There’s no point in giving you time.” A cold killing intent burst out of Gu Zheng’s eyes. “I knew He Weinian wouldn’t have come back for no reason.”

…

Qiao Xi entered the design department and found a corner to sit down. She logged into Black Tide’s account. It should be very easy for her to investigate a family. The internal information of Stars was very detailed, but she could not find any useful information after investigating for a long time.

Back then, after He Weinian left Li City, he opened a company overseas. Although his business was not as good as when he was in Li City, it could at least be maintained. Everyone knew that his business overseas had not been optimistic all these years, so he opened a few more companies in the country. Only then did the He family gradually stabilize.

After going overseas, He Weinian arranged for He Tingchen and He Wenxian to continue their studies. After they graduated, they would return to the company to work.

He Weinian had a good reputation outside, and his business partners had a high evaluation of him. He never mistreated the company’s employees, nor was he biased toward his children. The assets were equally divided between He Wenxian and He Tingchen.

The information that could be found on him was all positive, and it was limited. It made people feel that something was wrong.

Qiao Xi knew that this information was true, but she kept having the feeling that this was just what He Weinian wanted others to see. There was more information that was being concealed. Perhaps only the He family knew about it.

He Weinian might not be as good as the rumors said. He might even be a complete villain!

An hour later, Qiao Xi was sitting in the office drawing designs when there was a knock on the door. “Xi Xi, Assistant Song is looking for you.”

Qiao Xi went out and saw Song Shijing waiting for her outside with a frown. As Gu Zheng’s assistant, he had always been calm, but at this moment, he looked extremely embarrassed.

“Young Madam, the He family is here again.”

Qiao Xi frowned. “Why are they here?”

“Uh…” Song Shijing hesitated for a moment and said with a subtle expression, “They said they want to apologize to you in person.”

“Apologize?” Qiao Xi’s eyes were filled with disdain.

“Yes! He Wenxian wishes to apologize. Moreover, Chairman He and Madam He are both here as well. Young Master He and Second Miss He aren’t around this time.”

Qiao Xi’s tone was playful. “Oh? He Wenyin isn’t here?”

“Um…” Song Shijing was a little uneasy. “Young Madam, you should go take a look at the situation yourself.”

Qiao Xi’s gaze landed on him as if she had captured the crux of the problem. “I asked you why He Wenyin isn’t here. Why didn’t you answer me? Do you know where she is?”

Song Shijing’s expression froze.

He wanted to say something but hesitated. He felt his heart almost stop beating as he said with difficulty, “She… She’s in the president’s office.”

At this moment, in Gu Zheng’s office, his long legs were stretched out as he lazily leaned against the chair. He opened his eyes slightly and smiled distantly. “Second Miss He, why do you think I should agree?”
