Chapter 116

After a long time, the bus stop sign was unusually quiet and there was not even a bus passing by for a long time. The night was getting darker and the temperature was getting colder. Shu Wei rubbed his hands and felt a chill in his heart for no reason.

She sighed and heard the horn, followed by a conspicuous car parked in front of her. The car window slowly rolled down, revealing a smiling face.

"Madam, why are you here alone?"

It was Wang Sili, who seemed to have come back from somewhere. When he saw Shu Wei here, he stopped his car, "Are you waiting for someone? I still want to go home. I'll take you home."

Shu Wei looked up at the gloomy sky and nodded, "Thank you."

The warm air in the car eased her mood. Then he leaned back in his chair and listened to Wang Sili's ramblings.

"Little zhang, that kid is disobedient. Mr. Gu should have told me to take you home. Why are you waiting here in the middle of the night? You must teach him a lesson when you get back."

"I'm the one getting out of the car. I have something to do."

"Oh, I see. But madam, your health is not better than before. If anything goes wrong, the whole company will be in trouble. You and gu have been having a bad time these days. It's like we live in a rainforest every day."

Shu Wei was amused by his words, but then he smiled bitterly and opened his lips.

Does Gu Xinyan still care about her and her children?

The so-called infidelity, in this man's eyes, must be the deepest sin. She couldn't explain it, nor could she explain it at all, was it... That they were destined not to go on.

The pair of people that she had longed for for all her life would never come true.

"Here we are." Wang Sili parked his car at the entrance of the neighborhood and opened the door for her, "Take your time. Call me next time if you need anything. I'll pick you up."

Fortunately, he was alert. Although it was late at night, he was not vague at all.

Seeing Shu Wei walking away again, he remembered what he had suffered today and couldn't help but remind him, "Actually, Mr. Gu really cares about you. Even if there is a mistake, it must be because you care too much. At worst..."

"No big deal. Punish him to kneel on the washboard." Wang Sili said that last sentence in secret. For fear of being overheard.

Shu Wei only thought it was a joke, but when he thought of that possibility, he couldn't help but laugh.

When she returned to the apartment, she thought it would be as empty as she thought. But when he turned on the light, he saw a tiny figure.

Her long hair fell on her shoulders and she curled up into a small bag.

"Who are you?"

Shu Wei subconsciously stepped back to the door, his phone in his hand, and decided to call the police and call for help as soon as he realized something was wrong. Who knew who he was when he came home so unknowingly.

"If you don't speak, I'll call the police!"

She was really scared by the design these days. First Lin Zhaoying, then Wen Chesheng. Shu Wei felt like a frightened bowbird, afraid of the wind and grass.

But just as she was about to dial the number, the figure on the sofa slowly turned around and a familiar, pale face appeared in sight.

Shu Wei exclaimed subconsciously. If the man hadn't called her by her name, he would have thought he had met a ghost.

She scrutinized the figure for a long time before she was sure and took a deep breath, "Gu Chenchen?"

"Why are you here? Your brother is looking for you everywhere. You came here..."

"Are you looking for your brother?" She suddenly lowered her shoulders and hung her bag on the hanger. She poured herself a glass of water and sat down on the sofa, "He's not here. He won't be back for a few days."

"Gu Chenchen, since you're back. Just make it clear to your brother that nothing happened between Wen Chesheng and me that day."

She thought of the only witness and snorted happily. At least Gu Chenchen can testify for her...

Gu Chenchen stammered, blinking his swollen eyes and nodding softly, "I see. I'll explain it to you."

Don't tell my brother yet, if he knows I'm back. He'll kill me."

Gu Xinyan had loved her since she was a child, perhaps because she grew up alone. After returning to the Gu family, she became a sister and poured all her love on her.

But she could only take revenge.

"Shu Wei, sister-in-law, can you take me in for the next two days?" Gu Chenchen held her face in a pitiful manner, and her originally delicate cheeks had lost a whole circle of weight.

I don't know what kind of life I'm going through, turning myself into this.

Shu Wei was actually very similar to Gu Xinyan, who lost his twin sister from birth. From then on, he was the only child in the family and had few playmates in North city.

It was lonely and helpless.

Now that gu chenchen was begging her, he couldn't resist, so he had to answer, "But how long can you keep it from me now?"

"Go home before you tell mom and dad about this."

She did not know which word touched Gu Chenchen, and she suddenly became excited. Shaking his head, he said, "No, I'm not going back."

Her eyes were misty. She had promised to study abroad, but she ran away without saying anything. She was also with the Gu family's enemies, if... If the family knew about it, it wouldn't be as simple as killing her.

Shu Wei's persuasion was like a spell hanging over his head. She could not run, but she could not stop, let alone retreat.

From the day he followed Wen Chesheng, was he doomed to escape?

"Sister-in-law, anyway, my brother is not coming back for the time being. Let me stay here, I promise I won't disturb you."

Shu Wei hesitated first, then reluctantly agreed, "But you have to promise me that the time will be ripe in a few days. You have to explain yourself to your parents and brother."

"Yes, I promise!"

Shu Wei remembered very clearly that Gu Chenchen had raised his hand to swear.

That clear and innocent face made her unable to bear any grudges. Just think of it as a sister who has been raised to be unruly, and tolerate some wrongdoings.

It was not until one day when they confronted each other that she realized that it was wrong of some people to give a little tolerance.

-

Just as Shu Wei was about to fall asleep, a man stood by the window on the top floor of the North city Gu enterprise, his eyes distant and deep. The thick smell of smoke emanated from his side, and he suddenly did not realize it and just stared at the distance.

The phone rang and Wang Sili's reply sent Shu Wei home.

"Madam is not in good spirits, but she has returned home. Well, the lights are out too."

"Well, you can go back."

He put down his phone, his arm muscles tensed up. A dull feeling rose from the bottom of his heart, almost gripping his whole mind. He thought of Shu Wei, and his heart tightened again.

Why should the woman who loved him wholeheartedly not believe him?

But he couldn't show it. Lin Zhaoying's parents' judgment was on the way. The lin and gu legal groups already had a lot of good evidence, which could greatly reduce the punishment.

Wen Chesheng now thought that his goal was about to be achieved, and it was time to be on the least alert. Everyone was careful...

He had to be distracted by Shu Wei's influence, and in this way, the one who hurt was himself.

-

However, things were much more serious than he thought. In the past three days, Shu Wei had never been here or even made a phone call.

He did not dare to ask, nor to go back to see, but to wait for the verdict to end in three days.

Thirty years ago, Lin Jitian joined forces with his father and a few others to grow up in North city, where every inch of land was gold. In the early days of a business, there was no room for cooperation.

Unexpectedly, as the company grew bigger, the conflict between them became more and more obvious. Until that year it erupted.

An accident, he was still young and exiled, Wen Chesheng's parents died, and he never disappeared. Only the Lin family was unscathed.

Everyone would blame Lin Jitian, and the truth of the accident was still unknown.

Gu Xinyan slowly closed the file, straightened his shirt, and walked out of the office.

Today was the day of Lin Jitian's trial.

Lin Zhaoying was waiting outside early, her elegant clothes and professional smile made her look very different from before.

The moment he saw Gu Xinyan come out, he immediately went up to him. Her smile was like a flower.

"Xin Yan, the legal team has already taken a step forward. Let's hurry up." Although Mr. K was not contacted, at least she had some confidence that she could reduce the punishment.

In just a few years, he could find another way. Therefore, at this time, Lin Zhaoying was especially energetic. With her exquisite makeup and elegant figure, she was able to attract the attention of others wherever she went.

But at this moment, the man was still expressionless. Not even... Not even looking at her.

"Let's go." His thin lips were lifted casually, and he looked at his watch impatiently, hoping to end it as soon as possible. As long as he tried his best to appease Lin Jitian, the situation would be calm.

Walking up the elevator, Lin Zhaoying appeared in his eyes. He had thought that he would still be distracted, but after careful speculation, he realized that all the love and affection had gradually disappeared.

"Xin Yan, wait for me."

Gu Xinyan silently pressed down on the first floor, his face calm and expressionless. He stood with his hands behind his back, not looking at Lin Zhaoying from beginning to end.

Lin Zhaoying had no choice but to follow, as if he had not noticed anything, and just stood behind Gu Xinyan with a straight face.

Xin Yan, I want to thank you for this. Without your help, my parents don't know what will happen."

"No verdict yet." Gu Xinyan said coldly, no one can tell if there is no result. But he always felt that how could Wen Chesheng give up so easily? He wasn't like the kind of person who wasn't ready to step back.

Even if he had chosen a good time and found evidence of Lin shi crimes, was it enough for Lin Jitian to stay in it for the rest of his life?

Lin Zhaoying did not understand what he was thinking. His eyes fell on his broad back, and his lips curled into a cold arc.

Ignore her?

Ah... She would let Gu Xinyan know the consequences of ignoring her!

Meanwhile, Shu Wei was at the airport in North city. A few boxes of luggage, casual attire and simple attire made her look exactly like the many people who were leaving.
