However, the public only believed what they saw. They couldn't see the deeper things.
No one could see what Gu Jingming's real life was like. They didn't know what he was like outside of the news reports.
At the same time, the stock prices of some of the listed companies under the Gu family plummeted. Some of the projects were forced to be shut down. At this time, everyone started to feel anxious.
Gu Jingze was definitely busy. Lin Che didn't dare to leave the Gu family's house. He rested at home and waited for news. From time to time, he asked Dongzi to find out what had happened.
There was no response from the Glass Palace. The President was also locked in his room. No one knew what he was doing.
It was a mess outside. Some people had even taken to the streets, calling for the President to resign.

In the office. Gu Jingze stood there, listening to the reports from his subordinates.
"President Gu, now that the President is locked in his room, we don't know what to do."
Gu Jingze said, "Haven't you found the President's wife?"
"We've looked for her in the country, but we didn't find her. We thought she might have been moved out of Country C. Now the President is in a hurry to find her. He doesn't care about anything else. What do you think …"
Yu Minmin was missing and pregnant with his child. How could Gu Jingming care about anything else?
Gu Jingze said, "Let him be."
"What should we do now?"
"We still have to find the source. We have to find out who is behind all this. Only then can we get to the bottom of this."
They understood. The three of them left the office and went to do their own things.
Gu Jingze leaned against the wall and waved his hand, asking the others to leave.
At this moment, Lin Che's call came in.
He took a deep breath and picked up the phone.
"Gu Jingze, are you still busy?" Lin Che's clear voice came through the phone.
Gu Jingze nodded. "I'm fine. How are you at home?"
"What can happen to me at home? I'm fine."
"Okay. Don't go out. I'll be back in a few days."
"I know. I'm not out. You have to be careful."
"I know." Gu Jingze hung up. He thought for a moment and picked up the phone. He said to Qin Hao, "Tell Madam not to tell anyone about Yu Minmin's disappearance."
"Yes, sir."

Yu Minmin got off the plane and was sent to a villa.
She looked up to see where she was.
From the outside, it seemed to be tropical.
She thought for a moment and continued to look for clues. When she saw a sign on the side, she realized that this was the M Nation.
As soon as she woke up, she was brought to M Nation.
Exclaiming in her heart, she touched her stomach. Knowing that the child was fine, she could only relax herself.
However, she wondered if Gu Jingming had gone crazy looking for her. She didn't know what had happened in C Country. Why did so many people rush to the resort and take her away?
Anxious, she looked outside and thought, I can't stay here like this …
He couldn't just sit around and wait for death.
But now that she had just arrived, she could only be obedient. Leaning against the wall, she pretended to be weak and powerless. She watched as someone came in and silently delivered some food. She looked as if it was difficult for her to even sit up. Coupled with her big belly, it was hard for people to believe that she was only left with half a life.
After the person who delivered the food went out, he said to the people outside worriedly, "Did something happen to her inside? Her belly is so big. She looks like she's half dead."
"What could happen to her? I just used some drugs. Forget it. Let's keep an eye on her. Don't let her die. The higher-ups said that she'll be of great use to us."
"Should we find a doctor?"
"Forget it. Isn't she eye-catching enough? You want to find a doctor? Do you want to die?"
"Okay."
"We'll find a doctor if we can't do it. Let's keep an eye on her first."
Yu Minmin waited in the room. Seeing that there was no movement outside, she could only look at every corner of the window. She wanted to see if there was any way to get out of here. She also wanted to look at everything in the room to see if there was anything that could help her.
If it was a normal rich young lady, she wouldn't know about this. But Yu Minmin had been an independent child since she was young. She had lived in a worthless family. She quickly found the cabinet and opened it from the inside. She slowly removed the copper products that were used to fix the cabinet. Metal products could always be of some use. She looked again and found some iron products that were used to fix the drawers. She removed all of them. Just this alone took her more than two hours.
When she was done, she put the things on her body and continued to lean against the wall, pretending to be dead.
Time passed incomparably slowly. Every minute here was like torture.
She just thought to herself, If I'm like this here, what about Gu Jingming …

Gu Jingming hadn't eaten or slept in the room for a day and a night.
Linda didn't dare to persuade him, so she could only stand there and watch.
The rumors about the President had developed to a point where they had to be suppressed. But at this time, they actually took Madam away. This was almost a fatal blow to Gu Jingming.
Linda could only ask someone to lock down the entire Glass Palace and then send someone to look for Yu Minmin.
There was no news for the time being. Linda was still communicating with Gu Jingze, but there was no news from Gu Jingze either. They could only wait and deal with the trivial matters first.
Meanwhile, Lin Che stayed at home and watched as the people outside busily walked back and forth. They had already locked down the entire Gu Mansion several times. Lin Che leaned against the wall. When she saw Gu Shinian walk in, she waved and said, "Nian Nian, come here."
Gu Shinian said, "Mom, did something happen at home?"
Lin Che sighed and looked at Gu Shinian. She knew that some things couldn't be hidden from Nian Nian.
Lin Che said, "Something happened. You might have seen it already. But don't worry, Dad will deal with it. We just need to wait at home and not cause trouble for Dad."
Gu Shinian nodded and said, "Do you want me to find out something?"
"You're going?" Lin Che looked at him and wanted to laugh, but she suddenly remembered that Gu Jingze had said that Gu Qigang had given the Gu Family's best secret guards to Gu Shinian.
Lin Che said, "It's fine if you go and find out. I just want to know what's going on outside."
Gu Shinian nodded and said, "Mom, don't worry. There are two men in our house protecting Mom. Mom and the little brother in your stomach will be fine."
Lin Che snickered and looked at Nian Nian. "How do you know it's a little brother?"
Gu Shinian said, "If it's a little sister, I don't want her anymore."
