Rebirth! The Assassin's Revenge-Chapter 361: I’ll Handle It

Gu Zheng stared at the girl sitting on the sofa, she seemed like a stranger, just sitting there with a cold gaze, waiting for him to make his decision.

Inexplicably, a chill rose in his heart, causing him to subconsciously clench the fingers on the table into a fist.

"I’ve already had someone draft a divorce agreement. Tonight, I’ll bring her home to discuss this matter," Gu Zheng calmed down and said to Gu Ningyue, "The Gu Family’s assets, she shouldn’t even think about taking a penny."

Gu Ningyue shook her head with a smile, "Just a divorce agreement isn’t enough, right? As far as I know, Li Yulan has planted quite a few of her own spies in the company over the years. Otherwise, don’t you think the recent crisis in the Gu Family is a bit too coincidental?"

All these years, Gu Zheng was too trusting of Li Yulan.

"Do you really think that your authority has remained unchallenged all these years, and that Li Yulan has always feared you?"

Initially, Li Yulan might have had some reverence for Gu Zheng, but after having two children and successfully integrating into the Gu Family, that little reverence was eroded by a life of luxury.

Besides, a woman favored by Xiang Bei wouldn’t be without skills and tactics, would she?

If she didn’t have them, the mother of the original owner wouldn’t have died depressed.

"You knew she’s the one who planted spies in the company?" Gu Zheng, although furious upon discovering Li Yulan’s infidelity, quickly calmed down due to years of experiences and began making preparations for the fallout.

At this moment, Gu Ningyue approached him, willing to lend a helping hand. Gu Zheng felt a slight surprise but more of a subtle joy.

Gu Ningyue nodded at Gu Zheng, "Of course."

Gu Ningyue recounted the information given by Ling Tianyou to Gu Zheng, though she held back somewhat.

After all, all she wanted was for the Gu Family to remain intact.

Ten minutes later, when Gu Ningyue finally finished speaking, Gu Zheng’s face flushed red, "Li Yulan! How dare she! How dare she!" 𝕗𝐫𝐞𝕖𝕨𝐞𝗯𝚗𝕠𝘃𝐞𝚕.𝐜𝗼𝚖

Gu Ningyue looked at Gu Zheng’s furious demeanor, a hint of a smile appeared in her eyes.

Apparently, Ling Tianyou’s information was exceptionally accurate.

She thought she would have to come up with some ways to convince Gu Zheng, but it seemed she had worried too much.

"Dad, do you still want a divorce now?" Gu Ningyue shook her phone, "If you do, I’ll be leaving."

She stood up, looked at Gu Zheng sitting behind the desk, her smile was captivating.

Gu Zheng looked at the daughter he had always disregarded, for the first time truly acknowledging her existence, "Ning Yue, why are you telling me this?"

Did she forget the hurt she experienced in the Gu Family before?

Gu Ningyue’s smile deepened, "You’re my father, so despite any dissatisfaction, I can’t let outsiders take advantage, right? In court, we’re family!"

Gu Ningyue’s few words perfectly answered Gu Zheng’s question.

Gu Zheng responded, "It’s good that you think this way. I’ll handle this!"

Gu Ningyue nodded, "If there’s nothing else, I’m going back."

Gu Zheng suddenly stood up from behind his desk, "Ning Yue..."

Gu Ningyue turned around, "What’s wrong, anything else?"

Gu Zheng hesitated to speak, after all, Gu Ningyue had just helped him.

Gu Ningyue saw his state, suddenly smiled, "If you intend to plead for Gu Wanwan, Dad, I advise you to forget it!"

"Also, do you remember what my mother looked like?"

Gu Zheng froze, her mother...

He remembered only her proud look, like a mountain ready to crush him.

Gu Ningyue looked at Gu Zheng’s expression, her voice calm and strong, "My mother was in great pain when she died. Did you stay by her bed even for a day during her severe illness?"

"Where were you at that time?"

"You were accompanying Li Yulan and Gu Wanwan, probably having a great time outside, right?"

"Did you think about my mother and me?"

"If you didn’t think about me and my mother back then, now you don’t deserve me sparing Gu Wanwan."

"Oh, by the way, I won’t spare Li Yulan either!"

"You better not protect her. Otherwise..."

Without finishing, Gu Ningyue just gave Gu Zheng a cold glance before turning to push open the door of the office marked Chairman, "Oh, by the way, I don’t like the receptionist and the host on the first floor. Next time I come, I don’t want to see these two people again."

Gu Zheng was stunned, watching Gu Ningyue leave, unable to utter a word.

After a while, Gu Zheng called his assistant, "Who is on duty at the reception and host on the first floor today?"

The assistant gave two names, Gu Zheng looked at him and said, "Tell them to settle their two months’ salary with finance, starting tomorrow they don’t need to come!"

The assistant was astonished, "Chairman Gu..."

Gu Zheng waved his hand, "Go!"

"Yes..."

If this could calm Gu Ningyue down, make her less angry with Wanwan, then it’s worth it.

Downstairs, Gu Ningyue was still somewhat annoyed at Gu Zheng’s behavior.

Gu Zheng even defended Gu Wanwan under such circumstances, obviously suggesting Gu Wanwan is his biological daughter.

Only Gu Zheng still didn’t know that at this moment, Gu Wanwan was probably experiencing inhuman treatment in the hospital.

Even if she withdrew the lawsuit, it wouldn’t help, the prosecution had approved the arrest, and Ye Mingchen pushed all the blame onto Gu Wanwan.

Now the case had changed its nature, and even a letter of forgiveness would only reduce the sentence slightly for this pair of malefactors!

Moreover, she wasn’t even planning to give this pair the benefit of reduced sentencing.

As she exited the elevator and entered the lobby, the receptionist and the woman who initially received her greeted her with smiles, "Miss, are you leaving?"

Gu Ningyue glanced at them, "I hope next time I see you, you two will be different from today."

The two were stunned by her words, not quite understanding her meaning, but responded anyway, "Yes, yes, Miss is right. It’s our fault for not recognizing greatness. Please don’t take it to heart."

The young receptionist who had always looked down on Gu Ningyue added, "Miss, please don’t hold it against us. We definitely won’t dare next time you come."

Gu Ningyue put on her sunglasses, her face revealing no emotion, not intending to pay attention to these two opportunists, turned and walked out.

The two exchanged glances, only speaking after Gu Ningyue’s car had left.

"Did we escape a disaster?"

"Probably, right?"

As soon as the words were spoken, the phone at the reception rang at this moment...
