Chapter 155: Chapter 88: Lecture Professor?

"Your mother and the Gu family’s adopted sister, Gu Yunshan, have a story that dates back fifteen years." Quan Shaoqing leaned back in his chair, hands folded on his lap, and spoke at a leisurely pace.

"Gu Ruicheng was Gu Lirou’s fiancé, but for some reason, he got entangled with Gu Yunshan. Your mother, in a fit of rage, pushed her stepsister down the stairs, resulting in a broken leg. She was confined to a wheelchair for five years before she finally recovered. As a result of that incident, your mom was kicked out by your father and has never returned home since."

"As for why Gu Yunshan would take action against your mother again, there is no reason. Therefore, we cannot be sure that it was Gu Yunshan who did it, since there’s no evidence. However, I found out that a week before your mother’s car accident, the Gu Family’s butler had visited Luocheng, but what he did there is unknown. This is the only suspicious detail in the entire case."

Quan Shaoqing thought that all these matters involved personal grudges, so he could only investigate to this point. But one thing was certain, there was something wrong with the Gu family people.

Gu Xiaoxi took a sip of her soy milk, her beautiful eyelids drooping as myriad thoughts flashed through her mind, considering what Su San said about the matter being related to the Gu Family.

Then, Quan Shaoqing also said that the Gu family’s butler had visited Luoli City. The Gu family’s butler was the only suspicious detail in the whole affair.

Therefore, a visit to the Gu family was essential.

She planned to go as Gu Lirou’s daughter, to wish the old man a happy birthday while casually probing the Gu Family’s secrets.

Quan Shaoqing saw a flash of intelligence in Gu Xiaoxi’s eyes and immediately understood her strategy, "The Gu family is far more terrifying than you imagine. Their subordinates are all desperate felons. If you want to go, absolutely not."

Gu Xiaoxi stood up from the dining table, head held high, "Who said I was going? I just want to go and see my mother and sort through her belongings. The Gu family is in Qing State City, which is not in the direction of Luoli City at all. Don’t worry, I won’t wander off."

"Really?" Quan Shaoqing didn’t believe her and immediately followed Gu Xiaoxi, grabbing her arm with a stern warning in his voice, "You are forbidden to go."

Gu Xiaoxi turned to him and blinked, "I won’t go!" Then she strode towards the door.

Quan Shaoqing watched her back, hardly believing Gu Xiaoxi’s words. But since she insisted she wasn’t going, he was at a loss for words.

The two left the apartment with complex emotions.

Lin Mi was already waiting outside, along with another soldier.

Seeing the two emerge together, they quickly gave a military salute.

Lin Mi said to Quan Shaoqing, "Superior officer, it’s getting late. We need to inspect Zone B at eight in the morning."

Gu Xiaoxi put two pieces of gum into her mouth, waved at Quan Shaoqing cheerfully, "Since you’re busy, I’ll see you later. I’m off to a lecture now."

The other soldier immediately made a gesture of invitation and then led the way.

Quan Shaoqing glared at Gu Xiaoxi’s retreating figure, wanting to say something but hesitating. He really was very busy today and wondered if she could handle those men on her own.

"Lin Mi, have someone accompany me to Zone B. You follow Gu Xiaoxi, and if there’s something she can’t sort out, help her," Quan Shaoqing ordered. After all, Lin Mi was his man, and leaving him behind would be sufficient to intimidate a group of arrogant elites.

Guided by the soldier, Gu Xiaoxi walked toward the large lecture hall not far away.

The soldier glanced at Gu Xiaoxi several times, seemingly in disbelief, "Miss Gu, are you really the lecture professor invited by the superior officer?"

So young! He just couldn’t believe that Gu Xiaoxi was going to give a lecture to two hundred elites.
