Rebirth: He refused to Divorce Again
Chapter 500 - Chapter 500 Chapter 500 Slipping Away with Tail Between Legs

Chapter 500: Chapter 500: Slipping Away with Tail Between Legs Chapter 500: Chapter 500: Slipping Away with Tail Between Legs The Jade Mine’s office had already been completely handed over to Gu Cheng.

And after receiving the approval of Old Patriarch Gu, Uncle Gu indirectly told Zhang Yi about the affairs of the Jade Mine.

One, because Zhang Yi had always been loyal to Old Patriarch Gu.

Two, because Zhang Yi was very familiar with everything about the Jade Mine, almost knowing it like the back of his hand.

Therefore, when Gu Cheng found out that the Jade Mine lacked even a single piece of jade rough stone and only had ordinary rocks, he definitely would not be able to just grin and bear it.

He would definitely go and ask Old Patriarch Gu for clarity.

By that time, Zhang Yi would naturally understand, so continuing to hide the truth would also alienate him.

Moreover, Old Patriarch Gu wasn’t worried–if one understood, they understood; if they didn’t, they could claim they were deceived.

It’s a matter of “Different strokes for different folks.”

But Uncle Gu couldn’t possibly go into details either.

And Zhang Yi, being extremely clever, got the point immediately.

As long as Zhang Yi understood one thing, that the Jade Mine no longer had jade.

So, there was no need to regret that the Jade Mine had fallen into the hands of Gu Cheng and his mother.

Zhang Yi was a person with a discerning mind and had been puzzled why Old Patriarch Gu sold the Jade Mine for fifty million.

Now, he finally understood.

Yet, in his heart, a certain admiration also arose.

He also filled with hope for the future of the Gu Family.

The next morning, bright sunshine filtered through the clouds and spilled onto the world.

In the tall banyan trees, birds chirped and twittered.

Signaling the arrival of a new day.

After packing, Uncle Gu, Qiaoqiao, and Zhang Yi left the town, taking a car towards the airport.

Meanwhile, Gu Cheng and Gu Jianhua were wandering around in the mine shafts.

Gu Cheng looked at the chunks of stone, knowing these were jade rough stones.

Once everything settled down, he would mine a batch of gemstones and then publicly auction them, unlike the old man, who only kept them for his own use.

A smile played at the corners of Gu Cheng’s mouth.

Gu Jianhua, with a calm expression, followed behind his father, his thoughts indecipherable.

After a while, Gu Cheng, leading Gu Jianhua, returned to the surface. A bodyguard came over and whispered, “Young Master, Uncle Gu and his group have left.”

Gu Cheng nodded, scoffing inwardly, So they’ve scurried off with their tails between their legs, huh?

He said to Gu Jiansheng beside him, “Ask Head Miner Wei to bring a few old masters over. We’ll discuss things and start work tomorrow.”

“Dad, are we starting work so soon?”

“Yes, let’s mine a few trucks full before winter sets in, and then haul them to the Imperial Capital for auction.”

Gu Jiansheng nodded. He didn’t understand much about these matters, and what could he do now anyway?

Gu Jiansheng walked towards the office.

Three days later, Qiaoqiao and her group arrived at the Imperial Capital.

At the entrance of Gu Garden, Old Patriarch Gu waited for them with a beaming smile,

while from the kitchen drifted the fragrance of cooking.

Gu Qingfeng’s eyes brightened, the heavy stone that had weighed on his heart finally lifted.

Even though they no longer had the Jade Mine, he didn’t feel sorry.

If he had no Jade Mine, neither did others.

The fifty million had been wired to their account, and the shares were smoothly resolved–it couldn’t be anything but great news.

Moreover, the astute Old Patriarch Gu also had his own calculations; Qiaoqiao surely had other plans.

It didn’t matter to him what her plans were.

As long as Qiaoqiao brought it up, he would help her accomplish it.

He wasn’t worried; that girl was too cunning.

Soon, the car that went to pick them up at the airport appeared in Old Patriarch Gu’s line of sight.
