Mr Gu’s First Doting Marriage
Chapter 1046 - Chapter 1046 Chapter 1048 Dirty Money

Chapter 1046: Chapter 1048: Dirty Money Chapter 1046: Chapter 1048: Dirty Money Xia Yangyang finished telling the story and said, “That’s the way it is, there are too many things in this world without a clear right or wrong, and I don’t know what to say.”

Xia Yangyang merely stated the objective facts.

In this matter, she had no stance and no right to persuade anyone.

The only thing Xia Yangyang could do was to be there for Gu Qichen whenever he felt distressed.

Gu Qichen laughed after listening, but a touch of sadness lingered in the curve of his lips, and he did not speak another word.

Xia Yangyang heaved a heavy sigh.

She was supposed to return today.

But considering that Sun Ping was coming tomorrow to repair the house,

Xia Yangyang took a day off, planning to stay one more day to observe.

Xia Yangyang also told Gu Qichen about the drug trafficking case from before.

After hearing it, Gu Qichen’s brows furrowed even more tightly.

Gu Qichen said, “Don’t take on such dangerous cases in the future.”

Xia Yangyang replied, “I didn’t seek it out myself, but when it came my way, I couldn’t just ignore it. Besides, it involves the Culture Hall. Even though I’m not one of them, there is still that connection.”

Gu Qichen asked with a stern face, “So about this matter, have you told the people here?”

Xia Yangyang knew what Gu Qichen meant.

Gu Qichen was asking if her godfather, Li Zhiqian, and the others knew about Sun Ping’s drug trafficking case.

Xia Yangyang shook her head, “I haven’t said anything.”

Her heart still leaned towards justice and her duty.

If Sun Ping really was involved in drug trafficking and if there were higher-ups involved, who would be the top boss? Could it be someone high up in the Culture Hall, someone she knew?

Gu Qichen asked, “So, do you also suspect that this matter is related to Gao Huizhi?”

Xia Yangyang shook her head, “Godfather would definitely not be involved in drug trafficking. Although he engages in some shady business, he does not do anything utterly malicious or harmful. I’m absolutely sure of that. But I can’t guarantee that among the many people in the Culture Hall and those uncles who founded it with him, none of his subordinates have gone astray. So, I haven’t said anything and don’t want to startle the snakes. After all, this is something for the detectives to handle.”

Gu Qichen asked, “Then, what exactly do you want to do by staying here tomorrow?”

“I just want to figure out who this ‘buzz-cut guy’ really works for.”

Whoever the buzz-cut guy was loyal to naturally became the biggest suspect.

This was actually something Xia Yangyang didn’t want to face.

Because it was either her eldest or second brother.

Although her second brother repeatedly claimed that Sun Ping belonged to the eldest brother, even Phoenix had unintentionally confirmed this.

But the eldest brother was abroad all year round and did not manage domestic business at all.

It seemed unlikely no matter how she looked at it.

Moreover, Liu Jie had said that it was the largest drug trafficking and manufacturing organization in the country, with its own pharmacists and a mature distribution network, forming a complete criminal industry chain.

How could her brother abroad manage to do all this?

But the second brother…

Xia Yangyang felt it was also impossible.

Although her second brother, Gao Wenbin, was his father’s favorite and had almost taken over most of his business,

Other than an underground casino, the rest of his business was pretty much legitimate.

For many years, he had managed them in an orderly way and earned a lot of money for the Culture Hall.

The Culture Hall had been laundering its image over the years, operating on both sides of the law, with significant investments in the real estate and education sectors.

They had even built several schools and gained a good reputation.

Li Zhiqian had no need to jeopardize his life for dirty money.

And Gao Huizhi would absolutely not allow it.
