Chapter 115: No One Can Move the Young Mistress of Xiao's Family

  Following the housekeeper, the two of them walked back and forth together.

  Gu Yu raised her head and looked at Xiao Qian, wanting to ask him what was going on.

  Xiao Qian caught her eye and said with a bow, "It's nothing, Grandfather is just concerned, probably just asking, you can just muddle through, say whatever you know."

  Gu Xiang's heart was secretly uneasy, looking at the increasingly close Xiao Garden, she took a deep breath.

  The guard still nodded and bowed to her, calling her "young lady", and went inside. The butler told the two people to wait for a moment, and soon they heard Xiao Yi calling from inside, telling them to come in quickly.

  Gu Yu and Xiao Qian exchanged a final glance before walking in side by side.

  Xiao Xiao looked at Gu Yan, her eyebrows furrowed, "Little Yan, why do you look so pale? Are you still worried about this matter? Don't worry, I've got it under control. I'll take care of it for you and won't let anything happen to you."

  Gu Yu's heart warmed up slightly.

  Xiao Yi didn't ask a single question and said that he would make decisions for her, how could she not feel grateful in her heart.

  He almost unconditionally stands on her side.

  Gu Yu smiled and said, "Grandpa, it's nothing, I just have a bit of a cold."

  "Caught a cold? Oh no, have you seen a doctor?" Xiao Yi asked anxiously.

  Gu Yan said, "I've seen it, and I said nothing's wrong."

  "Oh... you've caught a cold, need to rest more, don't go just yet, stay here and sleep for a while. I'll get someone to make some ginger soup with red dates and brown sugar. Don't overdo it when you have a cold, no other ingredients are needed. Nowadays people love to over-supplement, what's the point of ginseng or bird's nest? I'm not interested in those things, just these old-fashioned remedies are the most nourishing."

  "It's okay, Grandpa, don't worry about it. I've taken my medicine and I'm almost better."

  "So you're not drinking anymore?" Xiao Yi pouted on purpose.

  Gu Yan looked at Xiao Ye and could only say, "Alright, I'll drink it, I'll drink the ginger soup."

  Xiao Yi nodded in satisfaction and looked at Xiao Qian, "Have you started dealing with the matter? Have you asked what's going on?"

  Xiao Qian said, "Grandpa, I asked Gu Chen to ask around on that side. His family has a company there, and he said that after inquiring, it's true that such a company exists. There are many companies like this on that side. Grandpa, you also know that recently, not many people think domestic banks are unsafe, worried that their assets will be frozen, so they directly transfer them out. Some companies can be very simple, and now handling such a company is easy, without even needing to appear in person. Gu Chen's company has a total capacity of over 200 million, and it's said that 130 million was sold at a high price for low-end equipment, using fake transactions to transfer the money out. This is actually the worst method, which ordinary people wouldn't use, with relatively low-level techniques."

  "What time did you start this company?"

  "A month ago."

  "What happened to the person who handled it in the past?"

  "Not yet found, someone has been sent personally to Bermuda, hoping to see the handling channel of this offshore company."

  Xiao Chen took a deep breath and said, "What about other things? Are there any movements on the domestic side?"

  "For now, there's nothing much... but the police probably haven't obtained any major evidence yet, so it's still quiet."

  Xiao Xiao looked at Gu Yei, who was silent and still, and said calmly, "Little Yei, don't worry, if it doesn't work out, I'll make arrangements for you. Our Xiao family has never been afraid of others playing tricks on us. After all these years, my old man has seen everything. Who would really think that such a small move could send the young mistress of our Xiao family to prison? That's just too naive."

  Gu Xiang's heart skipped a beat as she looked at Xiao Ye, pondered for a moment, and said seriously, "Grandfather, you don't have to worry about me. This is my business, I'll go settle it myself. I can guarantee that this wasn't something I did, someone must be framing me, and if so, they must have left some clues behind."

  Gu Yu actually didn't have much confidence either, but in her heart, she didn't want the Xiao family to worry about her anymore. After all, she had already left the Xiao family.

  Xiao Yi said, "It's certain that we'll do our best to investigate. We haven't done anything wrong, so why should they pin the blame on us? But what Grandpa is saying here is that you can rest assured and boldly go ahead with it, Grandpa will be your backing."

  Gu Yan was at a loss for words and could only look at Xiao Ye, her heart filled with emotions.

  Gu Yu said goodbye to Xiao Qian on this side and walked out. Just then, she saw Xiao Minglang hurrying back from outside.

  Xiao Qian furrowed his brow to look, Gu Yu still wanted to bow her head in greeting, and went to see Xiao Minglang. When he saw Gu Yu, he was stunned for a moment. Afterwards, his gaze seemed to be filled with hatred and disgust.

  He stared directly at Gu Yan and pointed at Xiao Qian, "What is she doing here?"

  Xiao Qian blocked in front of Gu Yan and said, "What's wrong with her coming home?"

  Xiao Minglang saw Xiao Qian's attitude and became even more furious. This two-faced person, had he really fallen for this woman?

  Xiao Minglang shouted at Xiao Qian, "What attitude are you talking to me with? She can't even come home, I haven't settled accounts with you yet, and you still dare to be arrogant in front of me. Xiao Qian, have I been raising you for nothing all these years?"

  Xiao Qian sneered at Xiao Minglang, "Yes, you think you've wasted your resources on me. Xiao Bo isn't a waste, he's your good son, why don't you go find him instead?"

  "You..." Xiao Minglang's face turned green with anger at Xiao Qian's words, but Xiao Qian had said this many times before and was already used to it. He didn't care that he was scolding his own son. Instead, he shifted his gaze to Gu Yei beside him and vented his anger on her. "That's right, Xiao Bo would never do something like this. Xiao Bo would absolutely not find a woman like you, who can't even live a good life and will only tarnish the family's reputation."

  "Hah, you think he's so great that you want him to be your good son? How am I supposed to ruin my reputation?" Xiao Qian said bluntly.

  "Xiao Qian, don't you see what you've done? You think you can deceive everyone? You're already divorced from her, yet you're still speaking on her behalf. She's no longer the young mistress of the Xiao family, she has no right to set foot in the Xiao Garden again."

  Gu Yu was standing behind and felt that Xiao Minglang was talking to Xiao Qian, she didn't want to interrupt.

  At this moment, suddenly hearing Xiao Minglang shout out like this, his entire heart sank all at once.

  Xiao Qian was also stunned.

  His eyes changed slightly, and then quickly recovered his composure. Looking at Xiao Minglang, "Dad, where did you hear these rumors? Are you still hoping that I'm not your son now? Maybe I don't even deserve to stand here?"

  "Xiao Qian, it's no use trying to make me angry. If it were just idle gossip, I wouldn't say anything. But divorce? Do you really think you can still keep it a secret?"

  "Shut up!" The two pedestrians were standing still, but then a thick voice came from behind, filled with heavy anger, and shouted coldly. Several people also froze in place at the same time.

  Xiao Yi suddenly appeared behind them, holding a cane in his hand. His thin body exuded an air of elegance and pride, standing there with an aura of majesty, looking at the few people, letting out a cold snort, "All of you, come in and speak."

  Gu Xiang and Xiao Qian exchanged a glance, and it seemed that both of them saw a hint of unease and solemnity in each other's eyes.

  This thing can't be hidden anymore...

  Xiao Qian's eyes were filled with flowing light, turning back and forth, but Gu Yan's heart was filled with guilt and unease. She didn't dare to think about how sad Xiao Yi must be, nor did she dare to think about what Xiao Yi would do to her after being deceived.

  He doted on her, but after all, she was not his own granddaughter. Now that they have no relationship, can he still be more affectionate to himself?

  Gu Yu followed behind Xiao Qian, while in front of him, Xiao Minglang let out a cold snort and looked at Gu Yu with disdain.

  In the room, Xiao Yi sat in his intricately carved red sandalwood armchair, letting the butler pour tea and set it aside. The fragrance of the tea wafted through the air, but couldn't dispel the eerie atmosphere that sent shivers down everyone's spine, slowly seeping into their minds.

  Xiao Yi slowly raised his head, his eyes filled with an inexplicable emotion. When he looked at Gu Yu, he paused for a moment.

  He turned back and looked at Xiao Qian, his voice loud and clear, making people dare not disobey, "You divorced Gu Yalan?"

  Xiao Qian seemed to have taken a deep breath, turned his head and looked at Gu Yan.

  Gu Yu bit her lip. In the Xiao family, she was used to not speaking out of turn, lest she break the rules and bring trouble upon herself.

  However, at this time, she wanted to say, and wanted to tell Xiao Yi, that it was her fault, and she hadn't told him first.

  However, Xiao Qian's loud voice came from ahead, "That's right, Grandpa, I've divorced Gu Yueli."

  "Bastard." Xiao Yi's white ceramic teacup was slammed onto the table, "If your dad hadn't found out, how long were you planning on keeping it from me?"

  "Grandpa..." Gu Ye took a step forward, just about to speak, but heard Xiao Qian already taking the lead, "If I'm not hiding it from you, would you agree to our divorce? I said it early on, this marriage must be divorced, it's you who insists on letting us cultivate some nonsense feelings."
