Mr Gu’s First Doting Marriage
Chapter 1144 - Chapter 1144 Chapter 1148 The Mastermind Mr. X

Chapter 1144: Chapter 1148: The Mastermind Mr. X Chapter 1144: Chapter 1148: The Mastermind Mr. X Xia Yangyang stood up and was about to leave.

“Miss Xia,” Xi Zijun still called out to her.

Xi Zijun said indifferently, “What if I told you that the real target of Mr. X is your godfather, Gao Huizhi?”

Xia Yangyang unconsciously stopped in her tracks.

Xi Zijun said, “If I’m not mistaken, there was a major incident at Culture Hall before, and it suffered heavy losses, even Gao Huizhi barely survived, right?”

Xia Yangyang turned around, “How do you know?”

That matter had been completely sealed off; Xi Zijun should not have known.

“You don’t need to worry about how I know. I know not only this, but also what the ultimate goal of the behind-the-scenes manipulator of the drug trafficking case is. It’s to ruin Gu Qichen and destroy Shengyuan, so they targeted Gu Zhaohan. However, they didn’t expect the situation to reverse, forcing them to find a scapegoat. My father became their scapegoat just because he once held shares in the Great Wall, which made it easier to fabricate evidence. But what’s cunning about those people is that while laying out their plans, they were also paving the way out for themselves, making everything flawless. However, the failure of the plan doesn’t mean they won’t initiate a second plan. I think your eldest sister’s wedding might just be their Plan B. This is the consequence of you not taking it seriously earlier and failing to find the mastermind. My father was just an insignificant pawn. The person they truly want to deal with is not my father. I’m just worried that if Gao Huizhi is not dead, there will be a third plan, so don’t blame me for not warning you.”

Xia Yangyang felt a chill run down her spine.

Xi Zijun had already stood up, “Now there are only two ways to find the culprit: one is for Xiao Han to wake up, and the other is to find Mr. X. If we don’t find him soon, not just Mr. Gao, even Ah Chen, I think, will be in danger. I came here today intending to cooperate with Miss Xia. However, if Miss Xia is unwilling, I will find another way.”

“Cooperate?” Xia Yangyang asked.

“The Culture Hall is in Beijing, after all, I have some means in Beijing. I have a friend who is a skilled private detective; as long as Miss Xia can help arrange for this person to enter the Culture Hall, he will naturally find out who Mr. X is.”

Xia Yangyang frowned.

Xi Zijun said, “Miss Xia should still remember our first cooperation; you should be able to trust me.”

Xia Yangyang remembered; their first collaboration was to deal with Liu Ruyan.

After thinking for a while, Xia Yangyang said, “Sorry, I can’t do that; I can’t insert someone I’m not familiar with into the Culture Hall.”

“Xia Yangyang, don’t you worry about Ah Chen…” Xi Zijun paused, “Aren’t you concerned about Mr. Gu’s safety? If that person really wants to target Gao Huizhi, Ah Chen being Gao Huizhi’s biological son is now common knowledge. Mr. Gu is in danger; they see him as Gao Huizhi’s Achilles’ heel. Do you think I’m being overly attentive just for my father? I’m also worried they might do something harmful to him.”

Xia Yangyang’s heart tightened, “I’ll keep this in mind and won’t let anything happen to Ah Chen.”

“Can you guarantee that? You’re just uncooperative because of your hostility towards me, yet you haven’t truly considered Ah Chen’s safety.”

Xi Zijun no longer referred to him as Mr. Gu.

“Xia Yangyang, ultimately, I genuinely want to help you. I don’t want the man I love deeply to be in any trouble. Rest assured, my loving him does not mean I intend to take him from you, so there’s no need to see me as a rival. I could have approached Ah Chen directly about this, but I didn’t; I chose you, hoping you could let your guard down.”
