Chapter 947: Used (1)

Ling Tianya remembered that she had received a call when she was about nine months pregnant, a phone call from Cheng Chen.

During the phone call, Cheng Chen had said that Gu Zhiqian was well, but he had taken half a day off work and proceeded to cancel everything on his schedule. Gu Zhiqian had to pay for all the damages out of his own pocket.

After asking Ruan Zeyan, she had found out that the old man of the Gu family had fallen ill, and Gu Zhiqian, as heir to a huge number of assets, had gone back to settle issues to do with his inheritance.

Ling Tianya had found it all a little odd. Gu Zhiqian wasn’t the kind of person who would participate in his family’s feuds. He had never had any designs on the Gu family assets. He wouldn’t have signed on to become an actor with Zhiya Entertainment if he had planned to inherit his family’s empire.

If he was planning to inherit the business, he should have just stayed within the family business, taken up a role there and enjoyed his birthright as a wealthy young master. There was no need to become an actor.

By then, Ling Tianya was already approaching her due date, so she was concentrating on her own family and her child that was about to arrive. She didn’t pay much attention to Gu Zhiqian’s sudden absence, although she did recall finding the whole matter odd. There was a lot going on in her own life then after all.

After that, she hadn’t seen Gu Zhiqian again. Even at Tiny Rice Ball’s birthday banquet, he was nowhere to be found. He had made a big fuss about being his godfather, but all he did was send a few robot toys as his replacement.

Ling Tianya had thought that his gift might have been a little premature since Tiny Rice Ball was still so small. He wasn’t big enough to play with toy robots yet.

Now that she thought about it, the robots were probably off as well. Wang Manpeng was the one who sent them, not Gu Zhiqian!

That would explain why Mark had realized so quickly that Ruan Fusheng was about to violate her in the nursery. Mark had managed to barge in and stop him in such a timely way, and it was all because of those toy robots in the room.

“You took control of Gu Zhiqian long ago. You were the one who took leave from Zhiya Entertainment. You were the one who went back to the family and fought for your cut of the inheritance. You were the one who gave those robots to my son!” Ling Tianya was glaring at Wang Manpeng now. “You installed cameras on all those toy robots, didn’t you? That’s how you could see everything that was happening in the nursery room!”

When Ling Tianya had finished, Wang Manpeng grinned. He looked pleased with himself. “You deserve to be the woman that I fell in love with. You are really so clever.”

When Wang Manpeng referred to her as the woman that he loved, Ling Tianya felt nothing but revulsion.

Wang Manpeng saw the disgust in Ling Tianya’s eyes. He sat on the couch without any sign of anger. “That’s right, I needed Gu Zhiqian’s identity as a cover. That’s why I had plastic surgery to look like him. Perhaps the heavenly fathers took pity on me as well because the moment I assumed his identity, the old man of the Gu family announced that he was gravely ill. It was a rare opportunity and perfect timing; how could I sit it out? I have such a big organization to take care of, and I need powerful financial support as well!”

Wang Manpeng was laughing sarcastically. “Gu Zhiqian has been like this since he was young: lazy and carefree. He was a free spirit, and he enjoyed having fun more than anything else. He didn’t appreciate being shackled down by his name or his family. He wanted to be free. That’s why he would rather become an actor than inherit his family’s empire. He had a poor relationship with his family because of this, and he hardly ever returned to the house over the years. It was easy for me to assume his identity. His family didn’t even know him as well as I did. I resembled him anyway, and we had a similar voice. No one would find out if I went back there with his face.”
