My Billionaire Exhusband Grovels Me After Divorce
Chapter 1216 - 1216 1216 The Woman I Snatched is Gu Guotais

Chapter 1216: Chapter 1216: The Woman I Snatched is Gu Guotai’s Wife Chapter 1216: Chapter 1216: The Woman I Snatched is Gu Guotai’s Wife Qiao Yin knew she had saved Dongfang Ce’s life this time, the elderly man was grateful and fond of her, but she hadn’t expected that he really wanted her to marry into the Dongfang Family.

She could only helplessly smile and say, “You might not know this, but I’ve been divorced once. Young Master Mu, being such a talented and good-looking gentleman, wouldn’t it be inappropriate to marry a woman who has been married before? I also have no plans of marrying right now, so I can only appreciate your kind intentions in my heart.”

Dongfang Ce, however, didn’t seem to care at all as he said, “So what if you’ve divorced once? It’s not a big deal. Mu’s grandmother was also divorced once, and didn’t I eagerly ask for her hand in marriage?”

Qiao Yin was somewhat surprised, looking subconsciously towards Dongfang Mu.

His grandmother was also remarried? And she married Dongfang Ce?

Dongfang Mu was obviously aware of this, and seeing Qiao Yin’s surprise, he smiled at her, “Yes, my grandmother was married once before. After her divorce, my grandfather directly stepped in to court her, even though she was initially reluctant to marry him!”

Dongfang Ce recalled the past, a smile appearing on his face, “Mu’s grandmother was famously beautiful back then, skilled in music, chess, calligraphy, painting, and even finance. She was extremely talented and had many admirers.”

Qiao Yin couldn’t help but ask, “How could her first husband bear to divorce her?”

“Because that man’s family was prominent and somewhat looked down on Mu’s grandmother. Plus, he was always arguing with Mu’s grandmother, who couldn’t stand it anymore, so she divorced him. It was quite sensational at the time, after all, she was one of the top madams in wealthy circles, and she decided just like that to not be one anymore.”

Qiao Yin’s eyes widened in shock, hardly believing her ears, “This… the man you talked about, he wouldn’t be… from the Gu Family… could he possibly be my grandfather?”

“Yes, that’s him.”

Seeing her guess so quickly, Dongfang Ce felt even more convinced of her intelligence.

He nodded very straightforwardly, “The wife I stole was Gu Guotai’s. Otherwise, why do you think he still hates me so much, why he hates the Dongfang Family so much?”

Qiao Yin was dumbstruck, never having imagined the deep-seated love and hatred between the two families. She murmured, “I thought, I thought it was because of what you said last time, about causing his legs to become paralyzed… that’s why the relationship was bad.”

“Oh, that was also one reason, but I didn’t do it on purpose then, it was just an accident, and he was cured later, wasn’t he? I don’t know how he became paralyzed again, but you can’t blame me for that anymore, can you?”

Qiao Yin took a while to recover from Dongfang Ce’s explosive revelations. She gently shook her head, “My grandfather’s paralysis wasn’t due to an injury, but because of poisoning, this poison…”

“Poisoning?”

Dongfang Ce raised his voice slightly, “What poisoning? I never poisoned him. Back then, I was just arguing with him and accidentally pushed him down the stairs! I always thought his legs were damaged from the fall. Wasn’t that it?”

“No, it wasn’t. He had nerve atrophy and necrosis due to poison, which is why he couldn’t stand up anymore. I’ve been helping him remove the toxins all this while!”

Now it was Dongfang Ce’s turn to be shocked: “So this old guy has been in a wheelchair all this time, and it wasn’t my fault? Then who did it? Who would poison him?”

Qiao Yin shook her head, “I’m not sure about that. My grandfather probably doesn’t know who poisoned him either. He knew he was poisoned but has never been able to find out who did it.”

Dongfang Mu looked at Dongfang Ce, “Grandfather, now you don’t have to feel guilty anymore. His paralysis has nothing to do with you. At most, you married his wife, no, not even that—they were already divorced.”

Dongfang Ce frowned in thought for a moment, then burst out laughing, “Doctor Qiao really is my lucky star! You came and saved my life, and now you have cleared up a longstanding issue in my heart. You really have a connection with me and the Dongfang Family. Won’t you consider marrying Mu? I heard that Mu has always really liked you!”

Dongfang Mu also looked at Qiao Yin expectantly, his face blushing slightly, “Qiao Yin, consider me, please!”

Qiao Yin looked at him, then at Dongfang Ce, and couldn’t help saying, “Didn’t you say that Mu’s grandmother was originally my grandmother? So, Mu and I don’t have a blood relation, right?”
