Mr. Satan, let's meet tonight!

Chapter 432 Going All Out to Deal with the Gu Family

Talking to disgusting people made Shang Xi experience morning sickness for the first time.

The moment she put down her phone, she couldn't help but gag.

Jess was a little at a loss when he encountered this situation for the first time, and he kept offering tea and water and handkerchiefs.

He gently patted the other woman's back and asked anxiously, "Miss, are you alright? Should I have your housekeeper call a doctor to take a look?"

Shang Xi waved her hand.

She let out a breath and sat back down in her chair. "This is really a bad sign. I thought I wouldn't have morning sickness during my pregnancy, but it started just a few days after I turned two months pregnant."

Jess frowned again upon hearing the words "morning sickness".

He searched his memory and asked, "Was the doctor who treated you yesterday named Qiao Ziming? Did he say anything? You should be fine, right?"

Shang Xi was still a little out of breath, but she smiled and said, "I'm fine. If something were wrong, someone would be more worried than you. Don't worry, Si Baobei and I are both fine."

"Baby Si?"

"Yes, that's the baby's name. Isn't it lovely?"

"It sounds nice." Jess nodded absentmindedly, then suddenly stood up. "Miss, I'm sleepy. I want to go back and take a nap. I'll come down for lunch."

"Are you having withdrawal symptoms? Should I get Kitano to help you?"

"No need, I can bear it. Just don't let anyone come into the room and disturb me."

"OK then."

Watching the boy's departing figure, Shang Xi showed a worried expression.

Remembering the man's words from the previous night, such as "Don't trust Jess too much before finding out his true identity," she ultimately didn't interfere.

However, the phone call that had just made her feel so bad served as a reminder.

Shang Xi picked up her phone and dialed a number saved as 'None'.

Soon, someone answered the phone. "Miss Shang, as you instructed, our people have infiltrated the Gu Group. We have confirmed that the Gu Group has no money in its liquid accounts and owes hundreds of millions in high-interest loans. Once the company declares bankruptcy, we can begin the acquisition process."

"Have you found out who lent money to Gu Shaoxiong at exorbitant interest rates?"

"We found out. It's Mu Sijue, the current president of the Mu Group."

"Mu Sijue... Si Chengxiao?" Shang Xi looked puzzled and murmured to herself, "Could it be that he's helping..."

The person on the other end of the phone didn't speak.

After a long silence, he hesitated before speaking, "By the way, Miss Shang, based on the violin left by your mother, we found two of the last remaining noble families in France. However, I have some bad news to tell you."

Shang Xi's heart tightened.

She lowered her eyes and said calmly, "It has nothing to do with my mother, right?"

"Yes, neither of the two remaining noble families has reported any missing women or children left behind. Moreover, they have been living in seclusion for a long time and have almost no contact with outsiders. Perhaps we may have been investigating in the wrong direction from the beginning."

"..."

"The time for your public wedding with Mr. Si is approaching. If you wait until you make a public appearance, perhaps someone will take the initiative to approach you."

In the end, the man who had spoken also felt that the reason was too far-fetched, so he simply shut up.

Fortunately, Shang Xi had already prepared for the worst.

She was only momentarily distracted before her expression returned to normal. "It's alright. Our most important task right now is to deal with the Gu family and restore the Shang family to its former status. As for the rest... we can talk about it later."
