Chapter 144 She was no longer worthy of standing here

  Gu Yu stood behind, holding her breath, looking at Xiao Yi's back, and slowly let out a sigh of relief.

  Xiao Family

  The front hall was packed with people who came to watch the commotion. The good people stood aside and watched, while Xiao Ye had not arrived yet, everyone was discussing it in an uproar.

  Xiao Ming Jue sat on the chair, Jin Haiying looked at Xiao Ming Jue holding a cigarette case and smoking, went up and grabbed the cigarette, saying "Enough, stop smoking, Dad will be here soon."

  Xiao Ming discontentedly snorted, "What are you rushing for?"

  "What's so happy about today? Wipe that smile off your face," said Jin Haiying. "Let people see, who knows what they'll say behind our backs."

  Xiao Ming pouted, although annoyed, he didn't say anything, put away his lighter and hummed, "What's their family business got to do with us, can't even let people laugh now."

  As soon as he finished speaking, Jin Haiying slapped another palm on his arm, telling him to shut up.

  "You said, did Gu Yu really get involved with some company outside?"

  "What company is that? That's called an offshore company."

  "That's what I meant," said Kim Hae-young in a low voice. "I don't care what company she is from, but did she really do it?"

  Everyone in the room was discussing this, so no one thought it was anything out of the ordinary.

  Xiao Mingjue said, "Doesn't matter, Dad says it is, then it is. If he says it isn't, then it isn't. Alright, you talk less for now."

  Jin Haiying glared at Xiao Mingjue for a moment, but then heard someone say that Xiao Qian had arrived.

  Xiao Qian walked in and saw so many people gathered. He stood at the door, smiled and said, "Wow, everyone's here today."

  He pushed open the door and scanned the room with his eyes, but what followed was Gu Ze.

  She walked in, looked at everyone, asked each one how they were doing, her voice low and even, but it was impossible to discern any emotion.

  Later, Xiao Yi finally walked in, followed by Ge Aijia, and then Xiao Minglang and Lin Ai.

  Xiao Yan's eyes were calm, but the others had their own thoughts. Ge Aijia saw that the room was full of people and smiled like Xiao Qian, saying "How is it that everyone has so much free time?"

  Xiao Minglang stood up first and said, "Mom, we're worried about Gu Yian and want to know what's going on."

  "Wipe that sly smile off your face, it's almost splitting your ears apart. Who do you think can't see through you?" Xiao Yi suddenly interrupted him, shouting loudly.

  Jin Haiying's face had an expression that I knew all too well, and she glanced at Xiao Mingjue.

  Xiao Jia despised Xiao Mingjue the most because he was notorious for his scandalous behavior outside, with a terrible reputation that made him unlikable to anyone.

  Xiao Yi hummed, walked slowly into the room, looked at the people in the house, glanced around, but no one took a closer look, just sat down on his large red wooden chair, held his breath, and slowly raised his head.

  Gu Yu stood beside him, Xiao Yi waved his hand and let everyone sit down, but Gu Yu and Xiao Qian still stood in front.

  Xiao Xiao looked at Gu Yan, hesitated for a moment, and then said loudly, "Little Yan, tell me, what's going on here."

  "Grandpa, it wasn't me who did it."

  "Hmph, a thief would naturally not admit to being a thief." Xiao Minglang hummed from behind.

  "Ming Lang." Ge Aijia hastily gave Xiao Minglang a glance.

  When a man is old and can't get along with his daughter-in-law, it's a big deal.

  Xiao Leng coldly glanced over, although he didn't say anything, but also implied dissatisfaction.

  Xiao Minglang was indignant, "Dad, mom, I didn't want this to happen either. Who doesn't want a harmonious family? They're always so loving and affectionate with each other. She's always been arrogant because dad spoils her and favors her over me. What did I say? But now she's betrayed the Xiao family and caused such a big commotion outside, I couldn't bear being made a fool of."

  "Alright, it's just a small matter, Minglang don't be angry, it's not worth that much money, she's young, an apology will do." Jin Haiying said from behind, "We're all family, no need to make a fuss over this little thing and be unhappy."

  Xiao Minglang said, "Heh, I don't dare let her misrecognize, besides, look at the evidence in front of you, did she misrecognize?"

  Gu Yan looked at Xiao Minglang and said, "I don't acknowledge this so-called evidence."

  "You admit it now?" Xiao Minglang took out his phone and raised it as if to show everyone, "Take a look at this video, the woman in it, who else could it be but Gu Yu?"

  Gu Yu looked at Xiao Minglang and said, "The video is so blurry, it's really hard for me to decide."

  Xiao Minglang looked at Gu Yu in surprise, "Huh, you're starting to deny"

  Really?

  "No, that's right, looking at it this way, the figure and appearance are similar to mine, but it can't be confirmed as me, this is not me at all."

  "Huh, it's not you, could you have a twin sister?" Xiao Minglang said.

  "Look at that video," Gu Yan pointed out, "it's not like it's impossible to tell if they're twins or not. With today's makeup technology and plastic surgery, it's almost possible to create a person who looks just like me, isn't it? And this video is so blurry, you can only vaguely make out the shape of the person, it's like someone with a mosaic filter on their face. Who do you think it is, if not who?"

  "You..." The shape is vague, only a silhouette can be seen, and the entire face cannot be seen clearly. However, with just one glance, it's unmistakably Gu Yu. Upon closer inspection, it seems to be a bit too vague.

  Xiao Minglang said, "Isn't that ring yours? That ring was ordered by the old man in Switzerland, and it's one of a kind in the world. The mole on that woman's neck is different from yours, isn't it? Ha! You say I have no way to prove this is you, but can you prove it's not you? Besides, there's your signature, which has been verified by professionals. Do you still want to quibble? I know you'll deny everything, but do you think that if you deny everything, all the evidence will become false?"

  Xiao Minglang hummed and said, "I'm telling you, no way. The police are looking for evidence, not your excuses."

  "If Dad insists on saying that, I have nothing to say. Hand it over to the police, I agree. If you want to investigate, investigate, I'm not afraid of investigation if I haven't done anything."

  "After that, Xiao Yi kept looking at him from behind, his eyebrows raised, his deep and calculating eyes occasionally glancing at Gu Yu's expression. Finally, his gaze fell heavily on Xiao Minglang's body, "You're an elder, speaking to a child like this, do you have the nerve?"

  "I..."

  She dares to speak to me like this?

  Xiao Minglang wanted to say so, but looking at Xiao Yi's face, he swallowed his words back.

  Xiao Xiao said, "Xiao Wei, you say, the person upstairs, isn't it you?"

  "The person above is indeed not me, people who know me can tell, although it's intentional imitation, but it's not me, however, if someone insists that this is me, I have no way to argue, because after all, no one can go back to the past, and cannot pull the person out of the video to see if it's really me."

  "Hah, you think that by saying this, no one can deal with you?" Xiao Minglang laughed again in anger.

  "Hey, Ming Lang, let's talk this out properly. She is also Xiao Qian's wife, you should show some respect for him if not for others..."

  "Who is she to be his wife? She's already divorced from Xiao Qian, she's not even a member of our family, she doesn't deserve to stand here." Xiao Ming Lang said with a red face.

  The words had barely fallen when the silence was already complete.

  Many people even forgot to close their mouths, staring at Xiao Minglang and looking at Gu Yu.

  How is this possible... it's too astonishing...

  No one would have thought of this, how could Gu Yu divorce Xiao Qian?

  That's right, they made a fuss about divorce for a while, and at first they really thought they couldn't get along and were likely to divorce.

  But at that time, they quietly didn't mention it again and got back together as if nothing had happened.

  Now everyone is stunned. They've been quarreling like this and still haven't gotten a divorce, probably they won't get divorced after all. But then someone suddenly tells them that they're already divorced?

  No wonder they're so surprised.

  Lin Ai suddenly stood up, blinking her eyes and asked, "They... really got divorced? Xiao Qian?"

  Xiao Qian only reacted now, his heart sank, and then with a furious gaze, he looked at Xiao Ming Lang, "Dad, are you crazy?"

  Gu Yan stood there, feeling the gaze of everyone around her, with all sorts of implications, as if they had all surged to her face at once.

  She stood there, still with her shoulders straight, looking at the crowd, saying nothing, just staring ahead.

  It will be announced sooner or later anyway, and it doesn't make much difference whether it's a day earlier or later.

  By the way... thanks to HuaHua from yesterday, muah~
