"Don't change the subject." Ma Qiqi pretended to be serious, but the dancing smile in her eyes betrayed her. "I'm telling you, even if you plan to be with Professor He, you have to restrain yourself. Don't poke other people's eyes at school after you graduate."
Gu Nianzhi sighed softly and put down her spoon. She wiped her mouth with a napkin and said helplessly, "I don't have any feelings for Professor He, really. But Professor He treats me really well, and I … how do I put it … "
Gu Nianzhi was a bit confused herself. It would be a lie to say that she had no feelings at all.
Humans weren't plants, so how could they be emotionless?
But this kind of feeling wasn't romantic.
Gu Nianzhi was very clear about this.
"To be honest, I do feel closer to Professor He than other people, but I don't know why." Gu Nianzhi spread her hands. "Really, sometimes I think it's nice to have a brother like him, but I wouldn't use that to disgust Professor He." "That's true." Ma Qiqi nodded in agreement. "What I hate the most is when the man I like tells me that he only sees me as a little sister … Sister my ass! If you don't like him, then you don't like him. Why do you have to make it sound like a bitch? "
Gu Nianzhi smiled sheepishly and whispered, "So there's really nothing between me and Professor He. Even if I think he's like a brother, it's just a thought in my mind. How could I be so lucky to have such a good brother like him? "
"Professor He is cold on the outside but warm on the inside. I really don't know what kind of woman would be good enough for him." Ma Qiqi became infatuated again. "He's so handsome. He talks and walks like the scenery. I can't help but be attracted to him …"
Gu Nianzhi was speechless.
She waved her hand in front of Ma Qiqi. "Wake up! Qiqi, you're already taken! "
"Yeah …" Ma Qiqi sighed deeply and beamed. "That's why I can only watch from afar. I can't play with him!"
"Pfft!" Gu Nianzhi smacked her hand. "Go play with Brother Xiong. Professor He is so handsome that you can only watch from afar. Don't use your dirty thoughts to fantasize about him. "
"Pfft!" Ma Qiqi also patted Gu Nianzhi's hand. "Brother Xiong and I haven't reached the level of 'playing around,' so you don't have to worry."
Gu Nianzhi couldn't stop smiling.
It was a beautiful weekend morning with good food and friends. It was one of life's great joys.
After breakfast, Gu Nianzhi went to the library to prepare materials for Monday's trial.
This time, both sides were ready to confront each other in court.
After the first two tests, she and Gu Yanran both knew that they were like fire and water. They had reached the point where they could only exist.
The assassination that had happened a few days ago made Gu Nianzhi understand that Gu Yanran wanted her dead.
Gu Nianzhi had originally only wanted to fight for half of the Gu family's property rights. The other half was to be frozen.
She hadn't expected Gu Yanran to be so ruthless as to directly take her life, so she wouldn't hold back.
This time, she wanted to fight for all the family property.
She wanted to kick Gu Yanran out of the house and leave with nothing.
Although it was difficult to do so.
After all, the comatose Gu Xiangwen was Gu Yanran's biological father based on DNA.
Gu Nianzhi was only an adopted daughter.
If an adopted daughter could fight a lawsuit to get all the property from her biological daughter, it would be enough for everyone to talk about for years.
Gu Nianzhi looked at the materials in her hands and the written questions and answers that Ye Xuan had given her. She fell into deep thought.
She could see that Gu Yanran had protected the Gu family's situation very well.
The old servants of the Gu family had all died in the "hostage kidnapping" incident in Barbados.
Ye Xuan had also been in boarding school in the United States for a long time.
His only evidence was that when he was the head of finance for the Gu family, he had a better understanding of the Gu family's assets. He was able to provide Gu Nianzhi with a list of assets.
With Gu Xiangwen in a "vegetative state," Gu Yanran's side of the story regarding the Gu family's matters could only be heard.
Because other than her, no one else alive knew the details of the Gu family's situation.
Gu Nianzhi's marker pen drew circles and lines on the paper. In the end, the center always returned to the name "Gu Yanran" in the middle of the white paper.
She already had a vague idea that since Gu Yanran was the core of everything in the Gu family, her breakthrough point should be Gu Yanran.
All other evidence was secondary. What she really wanted to prove was Gu Yanran's true identity.
Gu Nianzhi absolutely did not believe that Gu Yanran was Gu Xiangwen's biological daughter.
Although she was not sure if she was Gu Xiangwen's biological daughter, she was very sure that Gu Yanran was definitely not.
Then who was Gu Yanran?
Gu Nianzhi took out the information that Huo Shaoheng had helped her find on Gu Yanran.
She graduated with honors from St. John's College in England. What a qualified housekeeper.
Before St. John's College in England, her high school and elementary school records were all blank. She couldn't find out where she went to high school or elementary school.
Gu Nianzhi added another suspicious point to her list.
…
The weekend passed quickly. Gu Nianzhi spent two days in the library, and Monday quickly arrived.
It was the third court hearing for the estate dispute between her and Gu Yanran.
She woke up in the morning, washed up, and changed into a smart black Versace pantsuit and a pair of HNIK black stilettos. Her long hair was tied up in a bun at the back of her head, making her look more mature.
Looking at herself in the mirror, Gu Nianzhi was still a bit dissatisfied.
She wanted to find a pair of glasses to wear so that people would think she was an adult …
However, she didn't usually wear glasses. She hadn't worn glasses in court in the past either. If she wore them now, it would be too eye-catching.
Therefore, Gu Nianzhi only thought about it.
After she finished packing, Ma Qiqi went downstairs with her.
Ma Qiqi was also going to sit in today. Ever since she and Yin Shixiong got together, she didn't give up any opportunity to be with him.
This time, Yin Shixiong was representing Huo Shaoheng to sit in on Gu Nianzhi's lawsuit, so Ma Qiqi followed along.
Yin Shixiong was waiting for them downstairs in his car.
Gu Nianzhi and Ma Qiqi went downstairs to get in the car. Gu Nianzhi consciously sat in the back and gave the front passenger seat to Ma Qiqi.
Ma Qiqi sat in with a smile and blushed when she saw Yin Shixiong.
Yin Shixiong had never been in a relationship before, so he didn't know what it felt like to be in a relationship.
However, he knew that he was happy when he saw Ma Qiqi, liked being with her, and was willing to be with her.
Starting the car, Yin Shixiong and Ma Qiqi started chatting.
Both of them were chatterboxes. As soon as they started the topic, they immediately discovered many similarities.
For example, they both liked swimming, eating, rock climbing, and camping.
By the time they arrived at the courthouse, Yin Shixiong and Ma Qiqi had already decided to go to an indoor stadium for indoor rock climbing this weekend.
Gu Nianzhi was also infected by their relaxed attitude.
She simply emptied her mind and didn't think about anything else. She closed her eyes and rested in the back seat.
When she got out of the car, Gu Nianzhi immediately saw Gu Yanran and Jin Wanyi standing at the courthouse entrance.
Gu Yanran looked very haggard. She was still a beautiful second look, but she didn't have the charm she used to have.
Jin Wanyi's attitude was normal as she stood elegantly beside Gu Yanran.
However, when she saw Yin Shixiong open the car door and carry Ma Qiqi out of the car, the calmness on her face was on the verge of shattering.
