I Regained My Memories and Became Rich After Getting Divorced-Chapter 643 - : How Did You Know That
Chapter 643: How Did You Know That
Gu Ming entered the Gu residence with a broad smile, following closely behind Wu Zhen.
Irritated by Gu Dai’s disappearance, Gu Zhe asked curtly, “What brings you here?”
Gu Ming replied cheerfully, “I heard that you, who had been missing for three years, are back from the dead. As your elder brother, I had to come and see you.”
Gu Zhe nodded and then said, “Since you’ve seen me, you should leave. I have matters to attend to and no time to entertain you.”
As Gu Zhe finished speaking, both Meng Xian and Su Ting prepared to leave as well.
Seeing this, Gu Ming urgently called out, “Wait a moment, I have something else to say!”
Gu Zhe stopped and turned to look at Gu Ming, waiting for him to speak.
Gu Ming continued, “Brother, you must be very busy searching for Gu Dai, which must leave you with little time to manage the company.”
Gu Zhe’s eyes darkened, and he stared coldly at Gu Ming.
Unaware of the tense atmosphere, Gu Ming continued, “Since you don’t have the time, why not let me manage the company? After all, I’ve been running it for the past three years and have a deep understanding of it. Most importantly, I want to maintain the family’s assets.”
Not hearing a response from Gu Zhe, Gu Ming felt a flicker of fear. He took a deep breath to steady himself and added, “We’re family. Surely you don’t think I would take over the company and not return it to you? Gu Zhe, I can’t believe you would think that of me…”
Gu Zhe interrupted Gu Ming’s emotional speech, “How did you know that Daidai is missing?”
Caught off guard by the question, Gu Ming’s mind went blank, and he stammered without providing an answer.
Su Ting narrowed his eyes, “We didn’t make Daidai’s disappearance public.”
Facing Su Ting’s gaze, Gu Ming trembled, suddenly more alert. After a moment’s thought, he hastily said, “Even though you didn’t announce it, I live nearby and could piece things together.”
He continued quickly, “I just remembered I have something to do at home. I’ll be going now. As for the company, it’s fine. If you don’t trust me, I won’t insist.”
With that, Gu Ming turned and quickly left the Gu household.
Watching Gu Ming’s hurried departure, Su Ting’s eyes darkened. After a moment of thought, he spoke to Gu Zhe and Meng Xian, “Dad, Mom, I feel there’s something off about Uncle.”
Meng Xian nodded in agreement, “I feel the same. Even though we live close by, our servants haven’t left the house, and we haven’t seen him. He shouldn’t know about Daidai’s disappearance.”
Gu Zhe said, “I’ll arrange for someone to investigate Gu Ming’s activities.”
Though Gu Zhe had grown up with Gu Ming and had genuine affection for his brother, the current situation regarding Gu Dai left him no choice but to investigate every possibility.
Su Ting also instructed his men to look into Gu Ming. He himself wasn’t idle either, immediately opening his laptop to work on the surveillance footage Yang Gao had sent him.
Gu Zhe watched Su Ting’s efforts from the side.
As Su Ting focused on the code, his brows furrowed deeply, and sweat appeared on his forehead. His hands flew over the keyboard, but the screen eventually showed a large red exclamation mark.
Handing Su Ting some water, Gu Zhe reassured him, “It’s alright.”
After a moment of silence and a sip of water, Su Ting’s eyes brightened with an idea. “My brother’s hacking skills are better than mine. He can help.”
Hope surged in Gu Zhe’s heart at this news.
Su Ting sent the surveillance footage to his brother, Su Ci, and informed him of Gu Dai’s disappearance.
Su Ci responded promptly, “Don’t worry, leave it to me.”
A short while later, Su Ci called back.
Su Ting answered quickly, “How did it go, brother? Any results?”
Su Ci’s voice was filled with disappointment, “No, this surveillance footage is exceptionally sophisticated and complex. I can’t crack it immediately. It’ll take some time.”
Su Ting’s heart sank slightly, but he didn’t give up. “Alright, thanks, brother. Please keep working on it.”
Su Ci reassured him, “Of course. I’ll do my best. We’ll find her.”
Meanwhile, back in the small house next to the Gu residence, Gu Ming’s confidence wavered after his conversation with Gu Zhe. He dialed Gu Si once more, seeking further guidance.
Gu Si, still calculating her next move, listened as Gu Ming explained his encounter and his growing fears. She remained calm, knowing her plans were still in motion.
“Don’t worry about Gu Dai for now,” she instructed, her voice icy. “Focus on consolidating our control over the Gu Group. Leave the rest to me.”
Hanging up, Gu Si turned to her trusted aide, confirming, “You’re sure Song Ling took Gu Dai and that she’s suffering from amnesia?”
The aide nodded firmly, “Absolutely.”
Gu Si’s smile was cold and calculating, “Then everything is falling into place just as it should..”
