"How long have you been waiting for this show?"
"A very long time."
"Are you tired of playing along with me and Wen Yi for so many years?"
"I'm playing along with you, but not with Wen Yi."
Gu Heng didn't know what else to say. She sneered, "Is this what you want to tell me?"
He Xiao's expression was cold as he turned to look at Wen Yi. When he met her gaze, he looked back at Gu Heng. He straightened his neck and said, "Shouldn't I? Do you think this reason is laughable? "
Gu Heng looked at him quietly. "If you really did it for Wen Yi, would you have joined forces with Dan Na to kidnap Si Nian?"
A month ago, He Xiao had specially brought his son to the villa on the pretext that his son wanted to see Ye Huanyan. In fact, it was just a cover. After Dan Na was exposed, Gu Heng quickly checked the villa's surveillance camera and found that on the day the He father and son came, He Xiao had gone to the West Coast alone at night.
He Xiao's face paled. Although he knew that he couldn't hide from Gu Heng, he still felt guilty to be exposed in front of Wen Yi.
The living room suddenly quieted down and no one spoke for a long time.
"How is Si Nian?"
The person who broke the silence was Wen Yi.
Her face was pale. When she looked at him, the sadness in her eyes was greater than anger.
He Xiao's heart trembled. He clenched his fingers and tried to calm himself down. "He's fine. Nothing will happen to him."
"That's good. You can do whatever you want us to, but don't hurt my two children."
"Wen Yi."
He Xiao's tone became more anxious. "I don't want to hurt you. Smith will only take Old Gu away for investigation. Nothing will happen."
"Do you think that you're not hurting me by letting them take Old Gu away with you?"
Wen Yi looked at him faintly. The sadness in her eyes had disappeared and her patience had been exhausted.
She had never been a good-tempered person. Before He Xiao had brought Smith over, Gu Heng had already held her hand and said a lot of things to her, reassuring her and asking her to be patient.
Such a storm was just the tip of the iceberg for the two of them. Compared to the rain of bullets in the past, it was just a drop in the ocean.
Gu Heng was still indifferent. He looked at He Xiao the same way he did on Wall Street.
At that time, he had not yet made a name for himself, and He Xiao was still a naive playboy. When he walked out of the bank, he glanced coldly at the rich second generation young master He Xiao, who was surrounded by people. It was this cold glance that made him and He Xiao get to know each other.
"Originally, originally, back then … back then, you should have married me."
Before Gu Heng was taken away by Smith, this was what He Xiao said.
He turned around to take a look, but he wasn't looking at the person who spoke.
Wen Yi looked at him. Her eyes were full of worry, but she didn't get up to send him off. She forced a smile and watched him leave. She turned a deaf ear to He Xiao's words in the living room.
"Wen Yi, things shouldn't have developed like this."
"…"
Gu Heng's figure finally disappeared outside the door. Hearing the sound of the car engine, Wen Yi gradually retracted her gaze and looked at He Xiao.
"Are you done?"
"Wen Yi …"
"Don't disgust me with your self-righteous affection."
Wen Yi took a deep breath and stood up. Her wine-red sweater made her skin look even fairer. Although she was already in her sixties, she still had a unique charm. At this moment, her indifferent expression was exactly the same as that of the person who had just walked out.
"Why didn't you say these words 40 years ago? Why didn't you do these things 40 years ago? How were you doing without me? You still got married and had children. You still had a meteoric rise. Old Gu and I didn't interfere with your life at all. We have a clear conscience. "
"That's all on the surface. Do you know how painful it was for me over the past 40 years? Every day felt like a year to me. "
He Xiao's voice suddenly rose. He seemed to be very dissatisfied with Wen Yi's indifferent attitude. His face turned red.
"Since the day you married Gu Heng, every day felt like a year to me."
Wen Yi looked at him. After a while, she said in a low voice, "So you want to say that you set up a trap to frame Old Gu and me because you were unwilling to accept it. It was all because you couldn't forget me all these years?"
"…"
"It's such a big trap, but you put the blame on me. I'm really … flattered."
"…"
"He Xiao, before my father died, he told me that people who do bad things always have their own reasons. But no matter what the reason is, it's just an excuse that can be magnified infinitely by you."
Because in this world, there will always be people who are as miserable as you and have the same excuse as you, but they still live a kind, benevolent, and lively life.
"Wen Yi …"
"Don't come over."
The black muzzle of the gun was pointed at He Xiao's heart. Wen Yi's eyes were filled with coldness. That indifferent look was just like the one she had when she was in the South African diamond robbery case. "You know that my shooting skills are very accurate. This is still my private territory. You broke in, so I shot you. I won't be held responsible."
He Xiao stopped in his tracks and clenched his fists tightly.
"Okay, don't move. I won't go over, but you can't deny my feelings for you."
"Feelings?"
Wen Yi sneered. "If it was Old Gu today, even if I had already shot him, he would still have the strength to crawl in front of me and not let go even if he died."
This was the reason why she had been loyal to him for so many years.
When it came to feelings, she believed that no one in this world would love her more than Old Gu.
He Xiao's face was ashen. He wanted to go forward several times, but he was held back by the gun. In the end, he left angrily and said, "Before the investigation is completed, the Four Seasons Villa will be temporarily locked down. No one is allowed to enter or leave."
Wen Yi did not retract her finger from the trigger for a long time. She waited until the sound of the engine at the door disappeared. Then she fell onto the sofa, her eyes red.
Gu Min rushed over. Probably because she had a conflict with someone, her face was bruised and red, but she still rushed in without a care. "Madam, are you okay?"
Wen Yi leaned against the sofa. Gu Min had twisted a handkerchief for her on her forehead.
"I'm old and my blood pressure is a little high, so Old Gu told me not to get too agitated."
Her voice was a little hoarse. "Yan Yan and the rest have left, right?"
Gu Min nodded. "Yes, they have left. Madam, don't worry. Sir is such a smart person. He will definitely find a way to get through this difficult situation. Moreover, Young Master is outside. If Young Master hears the news, he will definitely find a way to come back."
Wen Yi looked at Gu Min. She did not comment on her words of comfort, but there was a rare affection in her eyes. "Min Min, why aren't you leaving?"
"I'm staying to accompany Madam. If that despicable He Xiao dares to do anything to you, I will break his legs."
Before she could finish speaking, she suddenly covered her mouth and looked at Wen Yi in panic.
To her, Wen Yi was very strict. Probably since Gu Min had an impression of her, Wen Yi had been very distant from her. When they met occasionally, she would ask her to behave properly. If she made a mistake, she would be punished.
