Report to the president, the lady doesn't want you anymore

Chapter 127: Emerging from Cocoon to Butterfly (4)

He Li knew Gu Yan's thoughts very well. No matter what Gu Yi was planning, Gu Yan would definitely return to Qingcheng to visit Xiaotian.

So he said decisively: "I will go with you."

However, just as He Li finished speaking, Gu Yihuai quickly intervened, saying, "I'm afraid this isn't feasible! The Jiang family already knows that you easily swindled their money. If the two of you go together, even Gu Yan won't be able to return safely."

Gu Yihuai's words were like a huge stone thrown into a calm lake, instantly stirring up a thousand waves.

Gu Yan said firmly, "You did it."

Her determined tone indicated she had already made up her mind. But Gu Yihuai shook his head vigorously without hesitation, waving his hand firmly in denial, "You've really wronged me this time! The one who actually did this was your right-hand man—Jiang Yu!"

How is this possible? Gu Yan's eyes widened, his face filled with disbelief.

Not long ago, she had specifically told Jiang Yu repeatedly not to reveal this matter to anyone else.

However, now, this matter has been made public! When Gu Yan thought of this, a nameless fire suddenly surged in his heart.

She picked up the phone without hesitation and quickly dialed Jiang Yu's number.

However, what was strange was that no matter how many times she called, no one answered the phone.

Gu Yan couldn't help but frowned tightly, thinking to herself: "Could it be that Jiang Yu had an accident? Or is he deliberately ignoring my calls?"

Countless questions swirled in her mind, but none of them had a definite answer.

It seems that the only way to find out the truth behind all this is after they return to Qingcheng.

Gu Yan took a deep breath and tried to calm herself down.

She turned to look at A Li beside her and said softly, "A Li, you should stay in Jinghai this time. Don't worry, I will be back within five days."

In fact, Gu Yan made such an arrangement after careful consideration.

She had once promised Ye Zhen to give her a week to deal with some things.

It would take her at least two days to go to Qingcheng and back. If she wanted to fulfill her promise to Ye Zhen on time, all the remaining matters had to be resolved within just three days.

He Li looked at Gu Yan quietly, then glanced at Gu Yihuai who was standing beside him.

He knew very well that at this moment, in order to allow Gu Yan to deal with these difficult problems without any worries, and also to paralyze and relax the vigilance of Gu Yihuai, the cunning old man, he had no choice but to temporarily agree to Gu Yan's proposal.

So, He Li nodded slightly, indicating that he agreed with Gu Yan's plan.

In this way, time passed quietly, and an hour later, Gu Yan quickly packed some light clothes.

Afterwards, she embarked on a journey with her brother Gu Yihuai and her younger brother Gu An.

Although He Liben was unable to go in person, out of deep concern for Gu Yan's safety, he specially arranged for A Da and Asan to accompany Gu Yan.

After all, he knew in his heart that if he encountered any accidents on the way, he would feel more at ease with these two capable assistants guarding him.

Several people boarded a flight at around 11 o'clock in the evening. When the plane landed smoothly in Qingcheng, the clock had already pointed to two o'clock in the morning.

The inky black night sky enveloped the earth, and waves of coldness seemed to penetrate every pore, wantonly invading every inch of the air.

Gu Yan couldn't help but hug her arms subconsciously, trying to resist the slight chill.

Her eyes were firm but slightly uncertain, because she knew clearly that a tough battle was waiting for them.

But no matter how rough the road ahead is, she is fully prepared and determined to give it her all.

"To ensure that everything goes smoothly, we must ride in the same car with the wife. As for you, just follow closely behind." Ah Da said seriously. He was a cautious person by nature. When facing the Gu family, the alertness in his eyes was several times stronger than usual.

Upon hearing this, Gu An immediately expressed his strong opposition: "What's going on? She is my biological sister, and we are a real family!" His words were full of dissatisfaction and resentment.

After hearing this, Ah San quickly stepped forward to defend Ah Da, saying, "Humph, how can you be so called 'family' when you're constantly stabbing your own family members in the heart? Master Gu, don't be so ungrateful. You've taken advantage of me and are still acting like a scoundrel here."

Gu Yihuai, who was standing aside, was obviously much smarter than Gu An. He nodded quickly and responded: "Okay, okay, in that case, then we will listen to your arrangements. We will do whatever you say." As he said that, he did not forget to pull Gu An, who was still indignant beside him.

Just as Gu Yan was happily thinking that she would be able to meet Jiang Qitian in an hour, and was peacefully closing her eyes and taking a short rest in the car, something unexpected happened.

Just half an hour later, when the vehicle they were riding in had just left the highway, a sudden accident occurred without warning.

There was only a sharp braking sound, and then the whole car came to an abrupt stop as if it was dragged by an invisible huge force.

Even the people in the car were rushed forward because of the powerful inertia. Fortunately, the seat belts worked and avoided more serious consequences.

Gu Yan woke up instantly from her sleep and asked with a confused and horrified look on her face: "What happened?"

Ah Da, who was sitting in the front seat, saw through the car window that there were police officers giving instructions. He took a deep breath to calm himself down quickly, then turned to Gu Yan in the back seat and calmly replied, "Don't be afraid, ma'am. It's just a routine check. Nothing will happen."

Although Ah Da said this, a subtle worry flashed in his eyes. After all, this situation was too sudden, and no one knew what would happen next.

At this moment, everyone's eyes were all cast in one direction, and they saw several figures walking slowly towards the vehicle that Gu Yan and the others were riding in.

These people's steps seemed steady, but each step seemed to carry an invisible pressure that made people feel nervous.

When they got closer, one of them raised his hand to signal Gu Yan and others to get off the car.

Gu Yan and his companions looked at each other. Although they were full of doubts, they still got out of the car as they were told.

Not long after, the faces of those who were checking the vehicle suddenly became serious, as if they had discovered something serious.

They then searched the car and found some items that shouldn't have been there.

The moment they saw these things, everyone present gasped and the atmosphere suddenly became extremely tense.

You know, this car was arranged by Gu Yihuai's people.

Then, the appearance of such a thing in the car could only be that Gu Yihuai secretly instructed his men to place it there.

Ah Da suddenly woke up from his dream and felt extremely regretful. He realized that he had fallen into a trap carefully designed by others so easily!

"Put your hands on your head and don't move!"

Gu Yan got out of the car quietly, then looked at a place not far away with burning eyes. Her lips trembled slightly. Although no sound came out, it could be clearly distinguished from the shape of her mouth that she said the words "get off the car".

At this time, Gu Yihuai was sitting in the car, feeling very comfortable.

Of course he understood that behind Gu Yan's seemingly tough attitude was actually a helpless plea for mercy.

He had always known that Gu Yan was stubborn and would not easily admit defeat. However, at this moment, faced with such a situation, she had no choice but to make concessions.

He Li originally thought that sending two people to protect Gu Yan would be foolproof, but he never expected that he would actually hand over two fatal weaknesses to Gu Yihuai with his own hands.

This undoubtedly played into Gu Yihuai's hands, giving him an opportunity to take advantage of.

Gu Yihuai slowly got out of the car, his steps steady and resolute. After getting out, his eyes first swept over Gu Yan, then fell on Ah Da and Ah San. Finally, his gaze stopped at the police car not far away.

At this moment, Gu Yan, A Da and Asan had no choice but to get on the police car under the instructions of the police.

Their figures seemed so small and helpless, as if at this moment, they were no longer human beings, but fish on the chopping board to be slaughtered.

And at this moment, it seems that the only one who can save them from this predicament is the formidable Gu Yihuai...

Half an hour later, Gu Yan was finally released on bail by Gu Yihuai, but A Da and Asan were not so lucky. They still had to stay in the police station for some more time, waiting for the final outcome.

The moment she stepped out of the police station, Gu Yan heaved a long sigh of relief. She turned her head and stared directly at Gu Yihuai, her tone calm but firm: "Tell me, what do you want?"

From the very beginning, Gu Yihuai had taken such great pains to lure her to Qingcheng, and now he was even willing to take Ah Da and Ah San as hostages to force her to stay. The truth hidden behind this matter must be far beyond her initial imagination, and its complexity is unfathomable.

One has to admit that communicating with intelligent people often requires little words to fully grasp their meaning. Facing Gu Yan's blunt questioning, Gu Yihuai showed no surprise or anger. Instead, he changed his usual contemptuous demeanor, even speaking with a subtle sadness.

"Gu An...he has leukemia." Gu Yihuai lowered his head slightly, his voice a little low, "Neither his mother nor I are suitable to provide him with a bone marrow transplant. Now, the only person in this world who can possibly save his life is you."
