After three days, whenever she thought about Gu Jiangxin's divorce and disappearance, her chest would still feel tight, flustered, and breathless.
Zhang Wen, Mrs. Gu, was beginning to sense that something was wrong.
Her expression froze when her daughter mentioned it.
"He might have been held back by something urgent."
Previously, when her daughter's life was still uncertain, she had been praying to God and Buddha. She had even made a wish in the empty corridor at night. As long as Wushuang could be as healthy as an ordinary girl, she would not remarry Gu Jiangxin for the rest of her life.
This was a form of punishment and even self-abuse.
However, she firmly believed that Gu Jiangxin would protect this family with her.
Whether or not their marriage existed, it would not change their love for each other.
She never asked about Gu Jiangxin's career, never bothered him, and never set a limit on what time he could go home.
She was the most suitable wife for Gu Jiangxin.
To put it bluntly, even if he really went out to play with a few bar girls or socialized with friends, she could turn a blind eye to it.
When a man was rich, it was normal for young girls outside to stick to him.
All these years, not only did she not restrict his freedom, but she had always been his face and his harbor.
How many women like her were there in the world who were dignified and elegant, who came from a prestigious family, and who even allowed him to go on business trips without coming home?
She also knew him so well.
He could not really use this divorce to abandon her.
"Your daddy should be busy."
Zhang Wen pinched the snow-white bedsheets.
She seemed to be very sure, but her tone was not very convincing. Moreover, her lips were a little dry at the moment. It was obvious that she had not taken care of herself for the past few days and her mind was in a mess.
"Wushuang, don't worry. Your daddy loves you the most. Every time he comes back from a business trip, he will bring you a gift. This time will definitely be the same. "
He had this family in his heart.
He had his daughter and her.
Zhang Wen smiled as she said, "Do you want some water? Are you hungry? I'll get you a bowl of chicken porridge. "
Gu Wushuang, who was lying down, only felt a wave of weakness. His limbs were weak.
Having lived in this family for more than 20 years, she knew the Gu family better than Gu Shishi.
Mrs. Gu, who was speaking like this, was obviously afraid!
On the surface, these words seemed to be comforting her daughter, but in reality, they were simply trying to numb herself!
Gu Wushuang closed his eyes with difficulty. "Mommy, tell me the truth. How many Gu Corporation shares do you own?"
The spoon in Zhang Wen's hand fell into the bowl with a clang, making a crisp sound.
The smile on his lips was a little forced and bitter.
"Wushuang, why are you asking this? Mommy didn't marry your daddy for these things. "
She came from the Zhang family, which was also a wealthy merchant in the capital.
Before she got married, her elder brother and father already had over a hundred million yuan in assets, and they had developed well in the past few years.
All these years, she felt that she was qualified to be Gu Jiangxin's wife. Other than giving him her freedom, another important point was that she didn't covet his money.
She came from a noble family and was different from those shallow girls who only cared about money!
That was why she was confident that no matter what Gu Jiangxin did outside, he would still return to her side after he had seen a thousand sails.
Because she was the only one he wanted from her. He had no other requests!
"Mommy!"
Gu Wushuang bit her lip.
She was born into a wealthy family, so her best friends were also from wealthy families.
She had heard too many stories of couples starting a business together when they were young, divorcing when they were middle-aged, fighting over company shares, and fighting to the death!
If one party took precautions and transferred their assets, the other party might very well end up with nothing!
As for the children, if they followed the weaker party, they might only get a limited amount of alimony every month!
Even an adult child like her might not even be able to get alimony!
If Gu Jiangxin didn't want to give her any, he could totally not give her a single cent at all!
The law had never forced parents to give their assets to their children. Moreover, Gu Wushuang was only an adopted daughter.
If the parents didn't want to give their assets, there was nothing an adult child could do!
"If, if Daddy had a child with another woman outside, then … then what would you do?"
Gu Wushuang was so anxious that she was about to cry.
"What would you and I do? Where would we go? "
"The house at home. Mommy, is that your name? Those villas with gardens, is your name on the property certificate? "
She was really out of breath after saying that!
Mrs. Gu's face was completely pale.
Of course, her name wasn't on the property certificate!
Before they got married, she had said that she didn't want his money and only liked his talent and ability.
After they got married, why would she ask for her name to be written?
Even if the house they bought later was their joint property … she was too embarrassed to ask for it.
If she did, wouldn't she be going against her own words before they got married?
"You … Daddy isn't that kind of person!"
Mrs. Gu's voice suddenly rose!
"Shuangshuang, how could you say that about your Daddy? Who told you that it's nonsense? How could he have a child outside? "
When Gu Wushuang heard that, not only was she not happy, but her heart turned even colder.
She didn't have any confidence in her rebuttal.
As a wife, as a woman who knew her husband best, she actually panicked because of one sentence!
It was obvious that deep down, Mrs. Gu felt that there was at least a slight possibility.
Gu Wushuang closed her eyes tiredly.
But her hands gripped the bedsheets tightly.
In order to obtain the inheritance of the Gu family, she had done so much and made so many arrangements!
But now that she was about to get it, it was suddenly on the verge of collapse!
The mother and daughter pair fell into a strange silence.
Someone knocked on the door of the ward. "Wushuang, Auntie, it's me."
Huo Wencheng's voice sounded.
He knew that Wushuang wanted to talk to her mother about this sensitive matter, so he deliberately left in advance.
As the son-in-law of the Gu family, he really didn't want to get involved in the affairs of the elders of the Gu family. He wanted to avoid suspicion.
But —
After getting Mrs. Gu's reply, he walked in with a bitter smile.
"Auntie, Uncle sent me an email and asked me to pass it to you."
Huo Wencheng's expression was really ugly.
And his words made the hearts of the mother and daughter in the ward sink even more!
If they were just guessing before, now it was like a big knife falling down and cutting them!
It was like announcing a death sentence!
Mrs. Gu's hand couldn't even hold the bowl of porridge anymore.
Her voice was sharp and her volume was eight octaves higher!
"He, he asked you to pass it to me!?"
Her lips couldn't stop trembling!
With every breath, she felt like she was inhaling a mouthful of blade dregs, cutting her heart and lungs!
What couldn't her husband of twenty-five years tell her directly? Why did he have to pass it to her through her future son-in-law?!
Huo Wencheng obviously couldn't say anything, so he could only pass his phone over.
Mrs. Gu stood up with a bang, even flipping the chair behind her.
"No, this must be a scammer! Wencheng! Your uncle can call me if he needs anything, or even send me a WeChat message if he can't get through! Why would he send it to you? It's fake! This must be a scammer! "
She didn't even dare to look at it. She kept retreating and almost bumped into the wall!
Huo Wencheng gritted his teeth.
"Auntie."
He looked at Wushuang on the hospital bed, who was extremely weak and hadn't recovered yet.
He could only harden his heart and raise his voice.
"Auntie!"
"Uncle called me," Wang Yao said.
"He will pay for all of Wushuang's medical and hospitalization fees."
"But … he won't be coming back to this family."
Huo Wencheng chose the most gentle way to express his feelings.
However, Mrs. Gu was still dumbfounded. She leaned against the wall and almost slipped down.
"Impossible, impossible …"
"I'll call … call your uncle …"
Gu Wushuang's face was as pale as a sheet. Gu Jiangxin hadn't appeared for the past three days.
Knowing that she had a safe operation, he only replied with a simple "Oh" on WeChat.
Thinking about what Brother Cheng said, she had already prepared for the worst.
"Did my dad say … how much of his assets will be given to Mommy?"
She closed her eyes with difficulty, and a teardrop seeped out.
Her heart ached immensely.
It was too difficult.
She had chased Gu Shishi away, but all her efforts had been in vain!
She couldn't get over it just thinking about it!
Huo Wencheng looked down. He didn't want to look at Mrs. Gu, who had broken down to the point where she couldn't think straight. He also avoided looking at Wushuang's sorrowful face.
"Uncle said that the house you're used to living in in China, and the garden bungalow next to the hospital, will be left to you."
After saying that, he shut his mouth tightly.
Mrs. Gu's eyes widened and she slid down to the ground.
Gu Wushuang was so heartbroken that she almost fainted again.
Two houses … only two houses!?
The entire company, including the part that belonged to Gu Jiangxin, was valued at at least 3.5 billion!
How much was two houses worth?!
The one overseas was worth less than 10 million!
The set in the country was only worth 30 million at most!
What kind of joke was this?!
Moreover, these weren't assets at all. They were self-owned houses and couldn't be sold!
How was she going to survive in the future?
"There's nothing else."
Huo Wencheng cruelly added a final conclusion.
Mrs. Gu was completely dumbfounded by these few blows!
Huo Wencheng sighed. "Auntie, if you need a lawyer, I can arrange it for you. But … you have to be mentally prepared for the worst. "
If Gu Jiangxin had been prepared, he would have transferred more than half of his assets.
Even if they went to court, it would be a thankless task.
Mrs. Gu's eyelids rolled. Finally, she couldn't take it anymore and fainted!
"Hmm?"
Gu Shishi flopped around in the pool for three and a half rounds.
She was so tired that she couldn't even breathe properly.
She listened to the man on the shore quietly explain the situation of the Gu family that had taken a turn for the worse in the past few days.
Only Bai Lian and her daughter were in a state of emergency.
Anyway, Gu Jiangxin was fine. She even took her son to the amusement park.
A despicable person was invincible. This saying was true.
"It sounds like … I'm a little happy. What should I do?"
Gu Shishi stuck out her tongue.
She really couldn't feel any sympathy for the mother and daughter.
Mrs. Gu finally realized that a marriage certificate was still useful, right?
Of course, if she found an unreliable man, even a diamond certificate wouldn't be able to save her.
She could only say that her taste in people was really bad. Her own worldview was also distorted!
"Then let's celebrate."
The man on the shore with his six-pack and Apollo's belt exposed wanted to see the world in chaos.
He reached out and touched her little face that was half-exposed in the water.
"Roast duck tonight?"
Gu Shishi blinked and suddenly felt even hungrier.
It was so nice to have a man with the same worldview as her!
