Promise You a Prosperous Life - C43

The door was ajar, and I was about to open it when I heard the sound of voices arguing inside. I had never bothered to listen to the squalor of the walls, but this time I chose to stop and look nervously through the tiny crack in the door and listen.

Zhai Meijiao and her mother stood at the side of the door. The two of them were furious for some reason. After a while, they stopped and shouted in a tearful voice.

“Mom, why did dad go through all of this? Why didn’t he tell us the truth about being ordered to kill? If that’s the case, maybe we won’t be facing the death penalty. We will meet him again one day.”

So it was because of this that the two of them were so angry. My body shot forward, and I nearly hit my head on the door. No wonder Zhai Meijie’s attitude at the court was different from others. She knew such a big secret, and it turned out that there was someone else who had killed my father.

I had the urge to barge in and find out who the real culprit was, but I knew I wouldn’t get anything. I fought back the desire to rise and gritted my teeth to stay the same.

“Stop talking nonsense and tell me. Who told you that?”

After hearing those words, I couldn’t help but stuff my ears into the crack of the door. I was so excited that my entire body was trembling uncontrollably.

“No one told me, and I don’t know anyone else either. I only learned about it when I heard your conversation with dad when I went to the toilet at night. But mom, dad already went in, so are you still going to fill me up?”

His mother didn’t answer and instead scolded him harshly, “From today onwards, no, right now, this matter will be in your stomach. If you say anything about it, I won’t acknowledge you as my daughter.”

“No, I can’t do it! I want dad! I want dad to come out!”

As if her mother had heard something outrageous, she slapped her daughter hard on the face. Di Mei covered her face and glared at her mother in disbelief. Then, she quickly walked to the door.

Not good, she might have to go out. I turned around and walked two or three steps to the top floor. In less than a minute, the door opened heavily. Then, she stomped down the stairs.

I didn’t meet with Zhai Mei-jie because I felt her mother knew more about the truth. I waited for more than a minute, and when Zhai Mei-jie was almost out of sight, I walked down the stairs and entered without hesitation.

Zhai Meijiao’s mother thought that her daughter came back after realizing her mistake. There was kindness in her expression, but there was also surprise. When she saw that it was me, her face was filled with astonishment.

Panicking, she blurted out, “Why are you here?”

I sneered, “If you didn’t come, how could you have heard such interesting content? It’s not easy, just tell us what you know. ”

Zhai Mei-jie’s mother might have realized that I had listened to all of their conversation, but she was unwilling. After a moment of panic, she looked at me and sighed.

“You didn’t hear it. Actually, we, mother and daughter, had a conflict because of her father.” You didn’t hear it, actually, we, mother and daughter, had a conflict because of her father.

I knew Zhai Meijiao’s mother wouldn’t easily say it out loud, but that didn’t mean that there was no way to make her say it, because whoever was being ordered by her would definitely reap huge financial benefits. As long as this balance was broken, things could turn for the better.

After thinking it through, I seem calm. However, I say it word for word.

“You can feel that I have to be in a good mood from her performance, so I won’t leave you easily today. Of course, you can choose not to tell me, but I believe that when I call for the reporters later, you will definitely tell them, because then it won’t be up to you. You can decide whether to maintain or destroy the current situation.”

My words struck Zhai Mei-jie’s mother’s heart. Once again, panic appeared on her face. After waiting for a while, she begged, “Okay, I’ll tell you everything I know. I just hope you won’t tell the reporters and give us a way out.”

After that, Di Meijiao’s mother revealed fear in her eyes as her voice trembled.

“The person who ordered your father’s death was Yu Qiyi from ‘Mo Yi’, the company’s chief executive. After monopolizing the seafood market in the early days, he also wanted to buy all the supermarkets in the city under his name, and the progress was basically smooth, but when talking to your father, he was still unwilling. He thought your father blocked his path of wealth and ambition, and in the end, he ordered our family’s Old Zhai to kill your father.”

Zhai Meijie’s mother paused before continuing.

“You may not believe me, but you are a smart woman. Think carefully, why is Director Yu in such a hurry to get married to you? Is it too bizarre that your mother died? Was there no strange phenomenon happening before this? And the will. Is the handwriting the same as your mother’s? ”

I was stunned as though I was struck by lightning. But after that, the doubt that was already present in my heart suddenly became clear.

No wonder Yu Mo wanted to marry me over and over again. He had been spying on my father’s supermarket chain all morning, and no wonder my aunt and uncle suddenly appeared in my mother’s room. It was also his move.

And then there was the “sugar incident” that had just taken place, which was also part of his plan.

But to prevent Mama Zhai from lying to me, I pretended not to believe it and said through gritted teeth.

“Looks like not only are you not going to say the real reason, you’re also spouting lies and causing trouble. Then, don’t blame me for being rude. Let’s explain it clearly in front of the reporters.”

I took out my cell phone and was about to call the newspaper, but another word from Mom Zhai Meijiao sent a chill down my spine. I finally believed what she had said before.

If you still don’t believe me, this Saturday morning on the 22nd floor of the multibillion-dollar hotel, Director Yu and the city’s leading toy dealer Hu Zuqiang will join hands to invite the head of the business community to hold a large scale thank-you banquet. But that’s just an excuse from the public, in fact, Director Yu will use your father’s supermarket chain as the betrothal gift and meet with Hu Zuqiang’s daughter personally.

Yu Mo’s purpose of killing my father and seizing our supermarket chain was actually to please the rich girls, but not only did I help him succeed step by step, I was also muddleheaded as I immersed myself in the river of love that he had created. I was naive enough to think that we could live forever.

I wandered out of Zidoux’s house and out into the street. The cold wind was blowing and my mind was clearing.

Yu Mo Yi completely ignored me. In his eyes, I’m not even a blade of grass, so I’m sorry. I, Gu Yan, have always been a person who didn’t offend me.

As soon as Yu Mo got my dad’s supermarket chain by such despicable means, I’ll make him repay it tenfold. I bit my lips and swore.

Yu Mo Yi, you are really scheming and vicious, but you don’t need to worry about those who don’t have shoes. I, Gu Yan, will risk everything to collect debts for my parents, and I will settle this debt with you on Saturday morning!
