Lady Gu Is Too Weak To Fend For Herself-Chapter 1642 - A Hero’s Appreciation

1642 A Hero’s Appreciation

In the study of Longwan Residential.

Thank you readers!

Qiao Xi was curious. “He Weinian wouldn’t want He Tingchen to take the blame, right?”

“That’s impossible,” Gu Zheng replied without hesitation. “He Tingchen is the heir in his heart. Even if he’s weak by nature, He Weinian’s assets will still be left to He Tingchen. How could he bear to let his only son go to jail?”

“It’s been so many days, but He Tingchen hasn’t come out of the police station yet. Looks like the problem this time is a little troublesome!” Qiao Xi said with a smile.

“He Tingchen is the one who’s unwilling to leave,” Gu Zheng said indifferently.

As soon as he finished speaking, Song Shijing pushed the door open and entered. “President, the He family has sent an invitation over.”

Qiao Xi had a look of disdain. “The He family is still in the mood to hold a banquet at a time like this?”

She looked at the contents of the invitation and felt a chill run down her spine.

An apology banquet?

“Could it be that someone confessed?” Qiao Xi suddenly reacted. The next second, she received the news that the He family’s butler had confessed.

The butler had worked in the He family for many years. He took the initiative to go to the police station to admit that he was the one who asked He Tingchen to send the necklace to Longwan Residential. His original words were, ‘No one is buying this necklace for the time being, so it’ll be handed to Gu Zheng for safekeeping first. If Gu Zheng isn’t around, it’ll be placed in his study.’

Then, the butler took out a series of evidence, including chat records and recordings. He proved that he was the culprit who framed Gu Zheng and it had nothing to do with the He family and He Tingchen.

In the end, He Tingchen was acquitted. He Weinian’s name was not even tarnished one bit. However, the question was, where did the real Scorching Heart go?

The He family’s butler said that he had already sold the necklace overseas and could not get it back. This farce should end here. He Weinian sent an invitation to the people of Li City’s high society to explain this matter in public.

Qiao Xi sneered. “He Weinian is really audacious. He even invited everyone to the He family’s residence. Isn’t he afraid that we’ll find the necklace?”

Gu Zheng was silent for a moment before the corners of his lips curled up. “You’ll have to ask He Wenyin and Cheng Juan. Without their help, He Weinian wouldn’t be holding this banquet.”

Qiao Xi pondered for a moment. These two people had joined forces to scheme against He Weinian, making them a powerful force to be reckoned with

“Xi Xi, you’ve known Cheng Juan for many years, right? You should know that he has always been working with Liuli. Do you know what kind of work he’s in charge of in Liuli?” Gu Zheng suddenly asked with a chuckle.

Qiao Xi was puzzled. “What?”

Gu Zheng said, “He destroys the fakes on the market. The jewelry that Liuli Corporation sells to the public every year is limited. Of course, it can’t satisfy the needs of the socialites and noblewomen of high society. Hence, others started researching how to make fakes. One of Liuli Corporation’s departments deals with fakes on the market. Most of them are related to your work.

Qiao Xi’s eyes instantly widened. “In that case, Cheng Juan forged a fake and gave it to He Weinian? But I’m the real creator. Why not just let me make another one?”

“He Weinian has been paying attention to your movements. Moreover, making Scorching Heart requires expensive gems and professional equipment. It’ll easily arouse He Weinian’s suspicion, so Cheng Juan made it himself,” Gu Zheng explained. Google search f𝔯e𝘦𝒘e𝑏𝙣𝑜𝚟𝚎l. co𝑚

Qiao Xi was extremely excited. The four of them seemed to have a natural tacit understanding. Even if they did not communicate in detail, they knew how to start the next step of the plan.

She was really looking forward to the banquet tomorrow. If Scorching Heart was exposed in the He family, how exciting would it be?!

The next day, in the He family’s residence.

Everyone knew that Gu Zheng’s relationship with the He family had already collapsed. Everyone also knew the purpose of He Weinian holding this apology banquet.

“President Gu is really here!”

“Didn’t they say that President Gu cut off all ties with He Weinian? Why is he still attending the banquet?”

Gu Zheng held Qiao Xi’s hand and appeared at the entrance of the He family’s residence, immediately attracting the gazes of countless people.

The man was elegant and noble, with a trace of coldness and arrogance. He was like a noble god. The woman beside him had a delicate figure, fair skin, and red lips. The two of them seemed to have walked out of a painting.

Everyone looked at them uncontrollably. The moment He Weinian saw the two of them, the viciousness in his eyes flashed.

Madam He cursed softly, “If I had known that he was such an ungrateful person, I wouldn’t have cared about him back then! Now that he has made a comeback, he’s turning against us!”
