Quick Transmigration: The Charismatic Woman Uses Her Stunning Beauty to Complete Missions
Chapter 38 The Betrothed Childhood Sweetheart
Jiang Shao said coldly, "Then why didn't I, as your mother, even inform you of my son's engagement? Gu Xiyan, do you even consider me your mother anymore?"
There was a lot of discussion around. It was indeed inappropriate. As a son, how could he not even inform his own mother about such a life-changing event?
Shen Chumo wanted to step forward and say something, but Gu Xiyan pulled her back, shielding her behind him, and whispered, "Don't worry, Momo, I'll handle it."
Gu Xiyan stared directly at Jiang Shao, the mother he both loved and hated. During this time, when he seized the position of president of Gu's Group, his mother had done a lot of harm to him, even going so far as to frame him with trade secrets. If he hadn't kept some backup plans, he would probably be in jail by now.
This also caused Gu Xiyan's last bit of affection for Jiang Shao to vanish completely.
"President Jiang is joking. It's not that you're saying you'll disown me from now on," Gu Xiyan's voice was icy cold, devoid of any warmth. Jiang Shao's face turned even more ashen; she hadn't expected Gu Xiyan to be so resolute.
"You unfilial son! Don't forget, I'm the one who raised you!" Jiang Shao pointed at Gu Xiyan and shouted angrily.
Gu Xiyan remained unmoved. "I am unfilial? When you schemed against me time and time again, trying to destroy me, did you ever think about our mother-son relationship?"
Jiang Shao narrowed his eyes and threatened, "Gu Xiyan, if you don't want others to know that you're a heartless wretch who almost killed your own mother, you'd better go home right now!"
The atmosphere around Gu Xiyan became extremely tense. Shen Chumo knew the pain in his heart, so she gently held Gu Xiyan's hand and gave him strength.
Gu Xiyan felt a warmth in his heart as he felt Shen Chumo's support.
Gu Xiyan was silent for a moment, then his eyes turned cold. He stepped forward, approached Jiang Shao, took out a piece of paper from his pocket, and handed it to Jiang Shao, "President Jiang, take a look at this. If you still insist on this, I will have no choice but to take some measures."
Jiang Shao took the paper with suspicion, opened it, and her face instantly turned pale. Inside was evidence that she had instructed someone to tamper with Gu Ming's car. Gu Ming's car accident wasn't an accident after all; it was Jiang Shao who had caused it!
She never expected that Gu Xiyan would have such knowledge. Her lips trembled, and she couldn't speak.
Gu Xiyan looked at Jiang Shao and said, "President Jiang, I don't want to come to this point, but if you insist on forcing me, I have no choice. You don't want Gu Beichen to know that his father was killed by his own mother, do you?"
Looking into Gu Xiyan's cold eyes, as if she were an enemy, Jiang Shao knew that her son would no longer show mercy. She knew she had no other choice.
Jiang Shao clenched his fists and finally lowered his head: "I will leave here and leave the Gu family, but you must promise me that you will never let Beicheng know about this!"
As expected, Jiang Shao's heart was only set on Gu Beicheng.
Gu Xiyan scoffed, "President Jiang is truly devoted to his son." Gu Xiyan emphasized the word "son," and before Jiang Shao could reply, Gu Xiyan continued, "President Jiang, if you want Gu Beichen to continue being an ignorant young master, you know what to do next."
After saying that, Gu Xiyan turned back to Shen Chumo's side, took her hand tightly, and apologized, "I'm sorry, Momo, I've made you suffer."
Shen Chumo's eyes were filled with worry as she shook her head and said, "I'm fine, but you..."
Gu Xiyan kissed Shen Chumo's hand. "Don't worry, I'll take care of everything."
Meanwhile, Jiang Shao put the paper away, a smile appearing on his face.
He said cheerfully, "It's a misunderstanding, all a misunderstanding, everyone. Today is my eldest son Gu Xiyan and Chu Mo's engagement banquet. As their mother, of course I would wish them well."
Please don't mind what I said earlier. Xiyan and Chumo, congratulations on your engagement! May you be happy together forever.
Jiang Shao took off the bracelet from her wrist and put it on Shen Chumo. "Chumo, I liked you the moment I saw you. This bracelet represents my feelings. Please accept it."
Shen Chumo accepted the bracelet without hesitation, saying, "Thank you, Auntie."
Gu Xiyan and Jiang Shao exchanged a glance, both knowing that from this day forward, their mother-son bond was completely severed.
The banquet returned to its lively atmosphere. Everyone wasn't stupid; although they didn't know what Jiang Shao and Gu Xiyan had said that caused Jiang Shao's sudden change of attitude,
After all, it's their family matter; the important thing is that Gu Xiyan clearly won this round.
Halfway through the banquet, Shen Chumo felt a little tired. After saying goodbye to Gu Xiyan, she returned to her room alone and sat down on the sofa to rest.
Shen Chumo lowered her head, seemingly lost in thought, her fingers constantly stroking the ring on her finger. This ring was made by Gu Xiyan himself, and the inside was engraved with the letters SG, the capital letters of their surnames.
The clock in the room ticked away. Suddenly, all the lights in the villa went out, plunging the surroundings into darkness. The guests in the banquet hall were somewhat alarmed.
Shen Guoan cried out in astonishment in the darkness, "Butler Wang, quickly find someone to investigate the cause!"
But the lights came on again in the next instant. This flickering between light and dark lasted only a dozen seconds. Lighting control is usually very strict in this type of villa, so such an accident is quite rare.
The unexpected event may not be a coincidence, but rather a result of human intervention!
Gu Xiyan's expression turned grim as if he had thought of something. He rushed towards Shen Chumo's room. When Gu Xiyan arrived at Shen Chumo's room, he found the door wide open, but the room was empty.
Gu Xiyan hurriedly grabbed her phone to dial Shen Chumo's number, but only heard a cold female voice, "Sorry, the number you dialed is currently switched off..."
The phone was off! Gu Xiyan was shocked. Mo Mo's phone was fully charged, and she had even sent him a message after returning to her room. Something must have happened to Mo Mo!
Thinking of this, Gu Xiyan felt her heart clench.
Shen Guoan, his wife, and Shen Lin, who arrived later, looked at Gu Xiyan with confusion. "Xiyan, what's wrong with you?"
Gu Xiyan rushed away from the banquet hall, as if something had happened, making everyone uneasy.
Gu Xiyan clenched his fist and turned to Shen Guoan and his wife, saying, "Mo Mo is missing. I suspect someone has kidnapped her. Seal the gate immediately and don't let anyone in or out. Send people to look for her right away."
What?! Someone kidnapped Mo Mo! Shen Guoan, his wife, and Shen Lin exchanged glances, all recalling the ambiguous power outage earlier, their eyes wide with horror.
Kidnapping is not uncommon even in wealthy families. Chu Mo is stunningly beautiful, so it's inevitable that some people will have bad intentions towards her.
Shen Guoan's expression turned serious, and he immediately gave the order, "Search! Turn this entire villa upside down and find Chu Mo!"
Soon, everyone in the banquet hall learned about Shen Chumo's disappearance. The thought that such a beautiful woman could be harmed inspired everyone to help search for her.
Jiang Shao's expression was also somewhat ambiguous. She had just given her blessings to Gu Xiyan and Shen Chumo against her conscience, and now Shen Chumo had gotten into trouble...
Gu Xiyan's first suspect was Jiang Shao, but upon closer examination, unless Gu Beicheng was the most important person in Jiang Shao's heart, and unless she disregarded Gu Beicheng's safety, she wouldn't have kidnapped Shen Chumo.
Furthermore, Jiang Shao has always hated Gu Xiyan, but has always been very kind to Shen Chumo, so it's unlikely that Jiang Shao did it.
The villa had three floors and more than a dozen rooms. The group searched each room one by one, and soon arrived at a guest room. They faintly heard moans coming from inside, as if from a man and a woman. They stopped and looked at each other in surprise.
