C90 – The Sound That Makes People Blush

“This is a big deal. If you don’t go now, what if you miss something important?” Xiao Lu had learned about Wen Shuyue’s father, so she wanted her to check it now.

But the current situation was not to be underestimated. The content of every meeting was very tricky now, and if no leaders came, the staff would be a mess.

Wen Shuyue was caught in a dilemma. She could not afford to be absent from the company meeting, nor could she ignore her father’s situation. She had to ask for help.

“Just wait for me here. I’ll find Mr. Gu.” Wen Shuyue finally made up her mind and went to Gu Ning with the information.

There was a heart-pounding sound in the office. Wen Shuyue understood what was going on inside and blushed immediately.

She hovered at the door. Noticing a halt in the doorway, she knocked gently and said cautiously, “Mr. Gu, may I come in?”

“No.” Gu Ning’s angry voice came from inside. He evidently did not think that Wen Shuyue would suddenly appear at the door.

“Well, I’ll wait for you outside.” 

Wen Shuyue’s expression was not natural. Although she knew Gu Ning was a thrill-seeker who made out with his girlfriend in the office, she had never met it before.

This time she caught him red-handed, and of course, she had a feeling in her heart that she could not tell. She had never thought the story was true.

A few momenta later, Gu Ning finally arranged his clothes and opened the door to meet Wen Shuyue.

Dear Readers. Scrapers have recently been devasting our views. At this rate, the site (creativenovels .com) might...let's just hope it doesn't come to that. If you are reading on a scraper site. Please don't.

His expression was more unnatural as if he had been caught cheating.

“What, what are you coming to see me about?” He stammered.

“My dad’s lawyer says I have to go now, but there’s a crucial meeting coming up, so I was hoping you could help me.” When Wen Shuyue had recovered her mood, she explained her purpose.

He didn’t expect that she had come to him for such a trivial matter. Gu Ning’s face suddenly turned sour. He frowned and said, “You come to me for such a small matter? Wen Shuyue, what do you take me for?”

Wen Shuyue felt puzzled for a moment. She looked down and thought for a moment, then said, “Mr. Gu, this meeting is crucial. If it were just a small meeting, I wouldn’t have come to you specifically.”

Especially in such an awkward situation, she would never knock on the door to disturb them if she had another choice.

“Leave it to me. You must take care of it and hurry back.” Gu Ning wanted to say more, but he coughed in a low, dry voice and soon stopped talking.

Wen Shuyue was very grateful and thanked Gu Ning repeatedly. Gu Ning was not comfortable and didn’t speak much until Wen Shuyue was about to leave. He unconsciously spoke up.

“Wait a minute.”

“Huh? Is there anything else?”

At the sound, Wen Shuyue turned to look at him again, with uncontrollable anxiety on her face.

Gu Ning’s eyes kept dodging around. He didn’t dare to look straight at her. “It was a misunderstanding,” he said in a broken voice. “There are no other women in my office. It’s just…” 

“What just happened?” Wen Shuyue blinked her eyes, acting as if she knew nothing.

When Gu Ning saw her, he was startled for a moment. Then he quickly regained his natural state and said happily, “Nothing. Hurry up and let me know if there’s anything about uncle.”

“Okay.”

Wen Shuyue answered briefly, and she went away without looking back.

If she didn’t hide what just happened, the next time she saw Gu Ning, it would be embarrassing for both of them.

Instead of embarrassing both of them, she might as well pretend that she didn’t know anything. Otherwise, if she remembered the sound in the office all the time, it would have a significant impact on her,

Wen Shuyue hurried to the law office, and as soon as she got there, Lawyer Zhang took her to the office.

“I found a huge transfer of funds. The assets in your father’s name were inexplicably transferred to the account of a man surnamed Li, and the man reported your father for tax evasion, and the money transferred to him was tax evasion money, but as far as I know, although your father evaded taxes, there was absolutely not so much. ” Lawyer Zhang said solemnly.

As early as he began to investigate the transfer of the funds, he began to doubt the Wen Shuyue’s family. Now that he had found out the man’s identity, lawyer Zhang was even more skeptical about this. 

Wen Shuyue’s face turned pale in an instant, and her heart was already heaving, but she pretended to be calm and said, “Where is the home address of that man? Is it our city?”

“It doesn’t seem so. His hometown is in some countryside. I think the address is a little familiar. It is similar to the address on your mother’s id card.” Lawyer Zhang shook his head, then seemed to think of something, and his expression became more solemn.

“My mother?” Wen Shuyue was stunned, too. She suddenly thought her father had asked her to pay attention to her mother and be careful.

Did her mother have something to do with it? Or is her mother the main implicated one? But if it were just implicated, her father would not have had to warn her about her mother.

As the case became more and more complicated, Wen Shuyue felt a headache. If she could, she really didn’t want these cases to be investigated on her own.

“Miss Wen, there’s something I don’t know if I should say. Are there any conflicts in your family? Is there a discord between your parents? Or have you always been on bad terms with your family?” Lawyer Zhang suddenly asked about it. 

However, this question made Wen Shuyue puzzled. Her parents had been very kind to her all the time. Of course, her father loved her the most, and her mother was also nice to her.

There were always fights between couples. Even if her parents had a few fights, she felt normal. Was this a family feud?

Wen Shuyue gave a full account of the situation at home before. Lawyer Zhang frowned with incredulousness and disbelief.

“I think it’s not as simple as what you said. In this case, I doubt your mother, after all, she is the nearest person to your father. If she wants to do something, it will be really simple.”

“No way. My mother can’t be like that. ” Without even thinking about it, Wen Shuyue retorted directly. 

No daughter would suspect her mother of doing something like that. Especially, her mother was still imprisoned by Lu Junhan, which made it absolutely impossible.
