Chapter 347 - 347: Hubby, You ‘re Mine Tonight
Chu He, when looking at Gu Qingcheng, who exuded confidence and nobility, was shocked and flustered, showing none of the ferociousness she had just when she spoke of killing Gu Qingcheng.
Qin Chong had not expected Gu Qingcheng to appear here.
After all, Huo Sicheng was already acting as the chairman of Gu Corporation, and he would surely be in the meeting room.
Gu Qingcheng had won against him and Chu He. She would definitely have a meeting with Huo Sicheng to demonstrate her triumph as the winner. But instead of having a meeting with Huo Sicheng, Gu Qingcheng came to confront him and Chu He.
Gu Qingcheng offering to help Chu He clearly showed that she had overheard the entire conversation between him and Chu He.
This was trouble. He had not expected that his ostensibly reconciled relationship with Gu Qingcheng would now be completely torn apart. “Qingcheng, your aunt just speaks without thinking when she’s angry, don’t mind her,” he quickly interjected to smooth things over, affectionately adding, “Cousin-in-law, why aren’t you holding a meeting with Sicheng?”
Gu Qingcheng ignored Qin Chong. She stood in front of Chu He and asked, word by word, “Chu He, I am standing right in front of you, aren’t you going to ask me how to save you?”
Chu He’s face was pale with a hint of blue, both helpless and angry.
She looked at Gu Qingcheng, who was smiling with crescent-shaped eyes, and felt as if Gu Qingcheng’s smile was like a knife piercing through her entire body, and she was overwhelmed by an endless wave of fear.
In the end, she turned away her gaze from Gu Qingcheng’s eyes, feeling guilty and aggrieved.
Seeing Gu Qingcheng ignoring him, Qin Chong again tried to laugh it off and said, “Cousin-in-law, you…”
“Still calling me cousin-in-law?” Gu Qingcheng abruptly looked at Qin Chong, her beautiful smile tinged with malice, “I heard your conversation with Chu He clearly. I call you cousin, but you secretly help Chu He against me and even want to kill me. It seems that our reconciled relationship from before at the Gu family restaurant no longer counts. Since you were the first to tear apart our relationship, don’t pretend in front of me.”
Qin Chong’s face changed dramatically. He opened his mouth to explain but found it difficult to speak, like a fishbone stuck in his throat.
He couldn’t refute Gu Qingcheng, because he had indeed helped Chu He against her, and she had even overheard him.
It was over.
With Gu Qingcheng’s ruthless character, she would definitely tell Huo Sicheng about this.
Huo Sicheng would not let him go.
He really shouldn’t have helped Chu He. Otherwise, he would not have publicly broken his reconciled relationship with Gu Qingcheng.
Chu He saw the change in Qin Chong’s expression. She knew that Qin Chong must regret helping her.
She was now completely isolated and helpless.
“Chu He, haven’t you realized?” Gu Qingcheng’s beautiful face lost its smile, only fierce resentment remained in her eyes, “Without Gu Tianhao, you’re more isolated than ever.”
Chu He stiffened, her wide eyes staring in shock at Gu Qingcheng.
Indeed, when Gu Tianhao was not in a coma, he still cared for her. Whenever Gu Qingcheng bullied her, he would intervene to help her.
Now that Gu Tianhao was in trouble and Gu Qingcheng controlled everything, no one would help her anymore.
“Pushing Gu Tianhao down the stairs was the worst decision you ever made,” Gu Qingcheng said with satisfaction, observing Chu He’s reaction. “When Gu Tianhao was alive, he would have helped you, and even today, Gu Corporation would not have fallen into my hands. You pushed Gu Tianhao down the stairs in such a vicious way just to avoid divorcing him, and now you’re reaping the consequences.”
“I didn’t push Tianhao,” Chu He retorted, “I told you I didn’t push him. Why are you so sure I did?”
“To avoid divorcing Gu Tianhao,” Gu Qingcheng explained, “No one else would push him except you. It can’t be that Gu Mei, who is crippled in bed, climbed up to the sixth floor to push Gu Tianhao, can it?”
Chu He’s expression changed. She angrily said, “Gu Qingcheng, don’t go too far!
Gu Mei is paralyzed in bed because of you. How can you bring her up?”
“Why shouldn’t I mention Gu Mei?” Gu Qingcheng thought of the murderous look in Gu Mei’s eyes. She stared into Chu He’s eyes and said sharply, “Gu Mei’s current state, neither human nor ghost, is all your fault. It’s the karma you created.”
“You…” Chu He was infuriated, “Gu Qingcheng, you…”
Gu Qingcheng looked at Chu He, who was so angry she couldn’t speak, and relished the feeling of figuratively slapping her in the face.
“The only thing that can save you now is to wake up Gu Tianhao,” she told Chu He. “As long as Gu Tianhao remains unconscious, Gu Corporation will be under my control. You most need money to save your daughter, Gu Mei. If he doesn’t wake up, your financial power will be in my hands, and I will make sure you don’t have a single cent.”
“Don’t…” Chu He was terrified by Gu Qingcheng’s words. Desperate to save her daughter, Gu Mei, she forgot her hatred for Gu Qingcheng and pleaded, “Qingcheng, it’s my fault. If you want to avenge your mother, come at me. Don’t hurt Xiaomei…”
Qin Chong, seeing Gu Qingcheng’s determination, quickly said,
“Cousin-in-law, you…”
“Shh,” Gu Qingcheng gestured for Qin Chong to be silent, her eyes cold, “For the sake of your Qin family, you’d better keep quiet.” Qin Chong swallowed hard, holding back his words.
For the sake of the Qin family, he couldn’t help Chu He.
Otherwise, if Gu Qingcheng told Huo Sicheng about this, Huo Sicheng, being extremely protective of his wife, would definitely not spare the Qin family.
He was still alive at the mercy of Huo Sicheng. He couldn’t afford to offend Huo Sicheng.
Chu He looked at Qin Chong and said nothing. She knew he couldn’t help her.
Now, it seemed that Qin Chong was not as reliable as Gu Tianhao.
No matter how harshly Gu Tianhao treated her, no matter how much he wanted to divorce her, at least when Gu Qingcheng troubled her, he wouldn’t allow Gu Qingcheng to do as she pleased, for the sake of his pride.
She wanted to save Gu Tianhao. She wanted Gu Tianhao to live well. She would never allow Gu Qingcheng to take control of Gu Corporation.
Gu Qingcheng glanced at the sullen Chu He and Qin Chong, feeling too satisfied to waste more time with them. At that moment, Chu He and Qin Chong both looked towards Gu Qingcheng.
Chu He, looking at the confidently poised Gu Qingcheng, was shocked and flustered, showing none of the ferocity she had just displayed in threatening to kill Gu Qingcheng.
Qin Chong had not expected Gu Qingcheng to appear here.
After all, Huo Sicheng had already taken over as the acting chairman of Gu Corporation, and he would surely be in the meeting room.
Gu Qingcheng had won against him and Chu He, and she would certainly meet with Huo Sicheng to display her status as the victor.
But instead of meeting with Huo Sicheng, Gu Qingcheng came to confront him and Chu He.
Gu Qingcheng’s offer to help Chu He clearly showed that she had overheard the entire conversation between him and Chu He.
This was a disaster. He had not expected that his ostensibly reconciled relationship with Gu Qingcheng would now be completely torn apart.
“Qingcheng, your auntie just speaks without thinking when she’s angry, don’t mind her,” he quickly interjected, trying to smooth things over, and affectionately added, “Cousin-in-law, why aren’t you holding a meeting with Sicheng?”
Ignoring Qin Chong, Gu Qingcheng stood in front of Chu He and asked, word by word, “Chu He, I’m standing right in front of you. Aren’t you going to ask me how to save you?”
Chu He’s face was pale, tinged with a shade of blue, both helpless and angry.
She looked at Gu Qingcheng, whose eyes curved into crescents as she smiled, feeling as if Gu Qingcheng’s smile was like a knife piercing her entire body. She was overwhelmed by an endless wave of fear..
