The Scheming Billionaire's Heartfelt Devotion-Chapter 849 - 864: I Want to Know His Weakness

Last time when they were seen with Xia Wanming at the club, Gu Nanxi speculated that it must have been Qi Shangyu who used his connections with Xia Mo to convince Xia Wanming to come as a mediator.

To be safe, he had Assistant Cai follow these people and take pictures of them keeping mistresses and gambling outside as leverage.

Moreover, the other companies under these people’s names all have collaborations with Gu Nanxi; it doesn’t matter who becomes the chairman; they have no need to offend Gu Nanxi over this matter.

After hearing them, a venomous determination seemed to ignite in Li Jiaxue’s eyes.

Seeing that Li Jiaxue had nothing more to say, they all left.

Now it’s all over the company, saying that Zhong Li is the chairman’s long-lost daughter and the chairman plans to hand the company over to her.

Many colleagues also expressed pity for Qi Shangyu; everyone can see that President Qi has feelings for Zhong Li, and the woman he likes suddenly becoming his sister must feel quite painful.

Li Jiaxue came out of the meeting room and headed straight to Qi Shangyu’s office in her high heels.

When she opened the door, Qi Shangyu was sitting on the sofa smoking, wisps of smoke wrapping his deep, dark eyes, revealing a complex light.

"I just asked them, and they were all threatened by Gu Nanxi. It’s absurd how we managed to overlook him," Li Jiaxue said through gritted teeth.

Qi Shangyu lifted his head, leaned forward to tap ash into the ashtray, and said, "Mom, find someone to investigate him; I want to know his weakness."

"His weakness is Zhong Li."

"We can’t touch Zhong Li. If we investigate carefully, he must have other weaknesses."

Zhong Li is not only Gu Nanxi’s weakness but also Qi Shangyu’s.

"Don’t worry, son. This time, Mom absolutely won’t let Gu Nanxi off the hook."

Though Li Jiaxue said this, in her heart, she loathed Zhong Li. This time she not only wouldn’t let Gu Nanxi off, but she also wouldn’t spare Zhong Li.

.......

These days, Zhong Li hasn’t been going to work. On one hand, she wants more time to spend with Yu Lu.

On the other hand, she already knows that Qi Shangyu, together with the board, plans to dethrone Qi Weidong; she’s a bit unsure about how to handle her attitude toward Qi Shangyu right now.

That evening, after having dinner with Gu Nanxi at Qi Weidong’s place, Zhong Li went home. As the car stopped in the community, the two got out together, holding hands as they rode the elevator.

"If it weren’t for you this time, my dad probably would have been brought down by Qi Shangyu,"

Zhong Li leaned against Gu Nanxi’s shoulder, saying softly.

"But I don’t think he and Li Jiaxue will give up just like that."

Li Jiaxue is definitely a ruthless character; there’s no way she would allow her husband to disregard her in this manner.

As they exited the elevator, Zhong Li took out her keys and just as she opened the door, her phone rang. She looked at the caller ID and pressed the answer button directly.

"Assistant Wang, what’s the matter for you to call me so late?"

On the other end, Assistant Wang cleared his throat twice before speaking: "Actually, nothing important. I just wanted to ask when you plan on coming back to work. The days you’ve been away, I’ve been so busy I could drop."

Zhong Li hung her bag and sat down on the sofa: "Maybe it’ll be a few more days; I want more time to spend with my mom."

Assistant Wang’s phone was on speaker, and Qi Shangyu was sitting on the sofa at his house.
