Chapter 52: Looking Back at Home
"Mr. Gu, if I'm not mistaken, before returning to China, I just invested 10 million in Shang Media."
"Yes, that's the ......way it is," Gu Qingming trembled and raised his sleeve to wipe the cold sweat on his forehead, "The company developed a new APP some time ago, and we invested all our funds into it!" This is, there is no way to make a profit all at once, so at present, the funds are a little unable to operate. Can you ......"
"Mr. Gu." Words cut off his words, "Are you a charity when I hunt for shadows?" ”
"No, Mr. Yan, our APP ......"
"If you still haven't figured out what to do, just go outside." The words interrupted him again, "The last 10 million was for the sake of your brother Gu Yanting and your sister-in-law Gu Xin for the support of me when I was first established many years ago, and I bought 30% of your shares in Shang Media at a high price. ”
"Now, a company that is about to go bankrupt, I have no interest in investing in it." The words are like a cold-blooded Hades, and he directly sentenced the person in front of him to death.
Gu Qingming sat paralyzed on the ground, looking up at Yan Ci as if he had lost his soul, "Mr. Yan, please......"
"By giving up the shares and exiting the company, Shang Media can still maintain its prestige for more than 20 years." The rhetoric is straightforward and direct.
"No, no, no, this is my brother, my brother and my sister-in-law exchanged their lives for it, I can't ...... How can I ......" Gu Qingming kept shaking his head, sweat dripping down his face and onto the floor.
"Huh!" The words sneered, and his face was instantly lowered, and a pair of eagle eyes looked directly at each other, "Gu Qingming, do you remember that Shang Media was left by your brother and your sister-in-law with their lives?" When you spend extravagantly, when you lose the company's money, when you sell the company's interests for money! Do you remember how they died? ”
The words hit Gu Qingming's face, and at this time, his pale face and dead fish-like eyes stared at people like judges.
"You, you...... How do you know that they ......" Gu Qingming's whole body trembled even more, and he stretched out his index finger tremblingly to point at the words, "Who are you?" ”
"You only have one choice, that is, take everyone who has a relationship with your Gu family and get out of Shang Media! Otherwise, you're waiting to go to jail! The words bit down on the last two words.
"No, no, Mr. Yan, I beg you, I retreat, I retreat, I will quit Shang Media immediately!" Gu Qingming crawled to the side of the word leg and hugged his calf, "Mr. Yan, don't report me!" I have the old and the young to take care of! I can't have an accident! ”
"When you took all the inheritance left by your brother and sister-in-law regardless of your family affection, and threw the young Gu Ling into the orphanage, you should have thought that something would happen to you." The words kicked him away and pressed down the intercom on the table.
But in a few seconds, Xiao Chen pushed the door in with two security guards, and the two security guards walked straight to Gu Qingming, who was kneeling beside the words, and one of them held him up and pulled him up.
Gu Qingming struggled with his backhand, but which was the opponent of the two strong guys, "Mr. Yan, Mr. Yan, I'll quit, I'll go back to write the contract, you give me some time, I'll quit Shang Media immediately!" ”
Gu Qingming shouted hoarsely as he tried to break free from the restraints of the two.
With a glance, Xiao Chen took two security guards to drag Gu Qingming out of his office.
Outside the window, there was a sudden thunderstorm, and in an instant, the rain poured down.
The words closed his eyes, put his hands on his forehead, and pressed the thumbs of both hands on his temples.
Before it was quiet for a while, Gong Yu directly kicked in the door.
"You got Gu Qingming done?" Gong Yu shouted at him: "You don't call me to watch such a wonderful play?" It's a waste of all these years that I've been designing wiring with you! ”
"What's the matter?" The words only felt that the noisy voice in his ears gave him a headache.
Only then did Gong Yu notice a strange flush on his face, "What's wrong with you?" Sick? ”
He strode closer, reached out and touched his forehead, and suddenly exclaimed, "Holy! It's so hot! ”
"Tell me!" Words waved his hand away and said impatiently.
Gong Yu frowned, not daring to joke anymore, "Since Gu Ling has resigned, I will hand over the star trail to the people below." ”
"Hmm." The words closed his eyes and leaned back on the seat cushions.
Gong Yu looked at him worriedly, "Hey, let's go to the hospital and have a look?" ”
The words seemed to be asleep, and there was no response.
Gong Yu sighed softly, he couldn't understand this kid's stubborn temper very well, unless he had a disease that was about to enter the operating room, he would not step into the hospital for half a step.
"By the way, what should Han Junyi do with that kid?" Gong Yu suddenly remembered that there was also this person, "Guo Feng and his daughter talked about you in the study and he heard it, he was going to talk to Gu Ling about this last time, right?" ”
The words opened their eyes instantly, and their frost-stained eyes stared directly at the cheetah totem on the ceiling, and opened their lips and spit out a sentence indifferently, "Obey or die." ”
Gong Yu shuddered, "Got it." ”
"Gu Ling went to Gu's house." Words: When he opened his mobile phone and saw the information displayed on it, he instantly sat up.
"What? Why did she suddenly remember to go to the Gu family? Gong Yu was also surprised, "Did she know something?" ”
There was a hint of coolness between his eyebrows and eyes, coupled with the heat of his cheeks, he felt like he was in a small space between ice and fire.
He jerked the car keys on the table and got up and walked quickly.
"Hey, where are you going?" Gong Yu was startled by his sudden movements, and shouted at him while chasing him.
……
Gu Ling stood outside the iron gate of the Gu family, where she had lived for 9 years, she looked at this familiar and unfamiliar building, the building was still the same, but things were different.
Memories come back one after another, the happy times of living with my parents on the one hand, and the dark days of being abused by my uncle and aunt on the other.
Nineteen years apart, except for the surname Gu, she has no intersection with the Gu family for a long time. If it weren't for the search for the truth, she thought she would never have set foot here in her life.
She gently pressed the doorbell, and before long, an elderly man opened the iron door and poked out half of his head to look out.
She looked Gu Ling up and down, "Are you ......?"
"Mother Lin, I'm Gu Ling." Gu Ling recognized this old man who had been a housekeeper in the Gu family for many years.
"Miss Gu? Are you Miss Gu? Mother Lin walked out excitedly, her hands trembling and stretched out to hang in the air, not daring to touch Gu Ling's arms, "You are really Miss Gu!" ”
Gu Ling was also full of emotion when he saw Mother Lin's tearful appearance, "Grandma, she is an old man...... Are you okay? ”
"Okay, the old people are all right! I just miss you all the time! Mother Lin wiped her tears and welcomed her in.
Gu Ling sneered in her heart, this grandmother of hers was only worried about her disappearing as soon as possible!
"Miss Gu has been doing well all these years? Since Mr. and Mrs. left...... Alas...... Over the years, I've really hurt you......" Mother Lin's words stopped here, and it was inconvenient to say anything.
She was specially invited by Gu Yanting to take care of his mother back then, so many years have passed, and the middle-aged woman of the year has also become an old lady with the baptism of the years, and this old mansion has also become dilapidated and old.
She may be the only person in the Gu family who still feels sorry for her.
"Who is it?" An old voice sounded after Gu Ling stepped into the house.
Mother Lin led Gu Ling closer and replied happily: "Old lady, look at who is coming?" ”
Gu Ling bit his lip and couldn't shout the word "grandma" for a long time. For more than a decade, these two words seem to have never appeared in her life, neither on the pages nor in her words.
She can't forget how the man she called "Grandma" and her daughter-in-law tied her up at the door of the orphanage. It was she who broke her grip on the iron railing and pushed her into the gate of the orphanage with a hideous face.
"Who is it?" Seeing that there had been no sound outside, the people inside asked impatiently.
Mother Lin patted the back of Gu Ling's hand and pulled her into the room, "It's Miss, Gu Ling, Miss Gu Ling is back to see you!" ”
"Who are you talking about? Who's coming back to see me? With a surprised voice from far to near, Gu Ling's grandmother Cai Mingfang walked in front of Gu Ling on crutches.
Gu Ling looked at the skinny old man in front of him, and he couldn't compare her with the fat one back then.
Gu Ling pursed his lips lightly, "Grandma." ”
Cai Mingfang's wrinkled eyes widened in disbelief, and he was shocked: "Are you Gu Ling?" ”
"It's me." Gu Ling's hand was held tightly by her, and the discomfort in her body made her voice a little hoarse.
Mother Lin looked at the two people who were standing in place, and hurriedly said, "Old lady, miss, you sit down and talk, sit and talk, I'll go boil water for you to make flower tea!" ”
Although Gu Ling felt uncomfortable, he still held Cai Mingfang's hand and helped her to sit on the sofa.
Cai Mingfang's eyes never left Gu Ling from beginning to end, she kept looking at her, from top to bottom, from face to foot, she still couldn't believe that this granddaughter she personally sent away back then came back to see her!
"Gu Ling...... You...... After so many years, how are you doing? Cai Mingfang's old hands rested on the back of Gu Ling's hand and patted gently, "You...... How are you doing? ”
Cai Mingfang's choked voice made Gu Ling's words feel like a fish in her throat, and she swallowed her saliva after coughing lightly, "It's good." ”
"Back then...... Back then, it was grandma who was sorry for you, it was grandma...... I'm sorry for you! Grandma shouldn't have listened to your aunt's nonsense, I'm ...... I...... Ahem, ahem! ”
The more Cai Mingfang spoke, the more excited she became, and the old tears on her face fell on the back of Gu Ling's hand and slid into Gu Ling's palm, "It's right that you haven't come back for more than ten years, cough cough cough...... That's right! I'm sorry for you in this home...... I'm sorry for you! Ahem, ahem, ahem! ”
"Grandma!" Gu Ling hurriedly stood up and patted her on the back, she sighed and said with relief: "It's all over, grandma, don't get excited, take care of your body!" ”
"You're willing to call me grandma, and I'll see you again before I die! I die without regrets, without regrets! Cai Mingfang continued to repent: "I hope I go down to see your parents, and they can forgive me for my confusion back then...... Forgive me......"
"Old lady, young lady, you drink tea! Miss, this is Mama Lin's own flower tea, it tastes very good! Back then, my wife loved to drink the flower tea I brewed...... "Mother Lin poured boiling water into the transparent kettle with all kinds of dried flowers and lit a burning candle.
A faint floral fragrance wafted out, Gu Ling closed his eyes and smelled this familiar fragrance, it was his mother's favorite flower tea!
When she opened her eyes again, she had already let go of the thoughts she had just had, and she looked directly at Cai Mingfang, "Grandma, I want to ask you, do you know how my parents' accident happened back then?" ”
Cai Mingfang's hands shook, the hot tea in the cup spilled into her hands, and the pain made her instantly let go of her hands, and the cup fell to pieces on the ground.
