My sister regretted sending me to the correctional facility.
Chapter 95: Gambler
I never expected this.
I thought I grew up with Gu Yao.
Moreover, Aunt Gu has taken care of me for a long time.
I thought I knew them, mother and daughter, well enough.
But now it seems.
I know almost nothing about them.
Qian Sheng continued to tell me this story about Aunt Gu.
"It is said that when Gu Yao's biological mother worked as a nanny for the chairman, the two had that kind of relationship."
"Later, the chairman's family found out about this and felt it was very shameful. They couldn't accept that the chairman, a dignified man, had a relationship with a nanny."
"So the chairman's family forcibly dismissed and kicked out the nanny, and threatened her not to tell anyone about these things."
"No one expected that the chairman, who had no children of his own, would have a nanny who was lucky enough to become pregnant with his child."
As he said this, Qian Sheng wore a mocking and sarcastic expression.
"What a pity, the chairman never knew he had a biological daughter until his death!"
I frowned, but did not question what Qian Sheng was saying.
I just didn't expect that Aunt Gu, who seemed so simple to me, would turn out to be like this.
There are so many complicated pasts.
Moreover, the heaviest thing weighing on my heart has happened.
Does Gu Yao know about this past of her biological mother?
Ever since Aunt Gu jumped off the bridge and committed suicide.
I only noticed Gu Yao's out-of-control emotions in the very beginning.
But as time went by...
I've noticed that Gu Yao seems to be becoming less and less concerned about this matter.
In addition, Qian Sheng told me that Gu Yao inherited the 50 million yuan estate.
This made me even more suspicious.
Could it be that Gu Yao really inherited a 50 million yuan fortune?
So, she stopped caring about the cause of Aunt Gu's death by jumping off the bridge?
I even have more conspiracy theories.
Aunt Gu's suicide by jumping off the bridge.
Could it be related to Gu Yao?
When this thought popped into my mind.
Suddenly, I felt a shiver run through my body.
A chill ran down my spine.
If it really is as I suspect.
That was truly terrifying!
More and more doubts are swirling.
I suddenly realized that I could no longer trust anyone!
"Brother Qian, are you really sure it's true that Gu Yao inherited fifty million? You can't just say things like that carelessly, can you?"
Qian Sheng knew what I was thinking.
He said, "Are you saying that after Gu Yao's biological mother jumped off the bridge, Gu Yao received a 50 million yuan inheritance, and you suspect that Gu Yao caused her biological mother to commit suicide by jumping off the bridge?"
Qian Sheng spoke very directly, expressing exactly what I was thinking.
"Yes, don't you have any doubts about that?"
Qian Sheng smiled and said, "To be honest, I have some doubts about that."
"So, I found that gambling addict and talked to him."
A gambling addict?
Isn't that the gambling addict that Aunt Gu lived with before she met my father?
Qian Sheng actually went to see him?
"What were you talking about?"
“I went to talk to him about the 50 million yuan inheritance. At the time, there were rumors that this gambling addict had tried every means to force Gu Yao’s biological mother to give him money in order to get it from her, and in the end, he drove her to commit suicide by jumping off a bridge!”
My heart skipped a beat, and I quickly nodded: "Yes, I've heard that before."
As a result, Qian Sheng scoffed.
"Guess what? I found that gambling addict and discovered he was still living in poverty, not at all like someone who had inherited fifty million."
"Moreover, at that time he was heavily in debt and was hiding under a bridge to avoid being chased by creditors. I even stepped in to help him settle the matter and saved his life."
"I bet he's still barely surviving under some bridge. I gave him a thousand yuan last time; I wonder how long that money will last him."
As soon as these words came out.
I was completely dumbfounded.
The version of events about the gambling addict that Qian Sheng told me was different from the version that Zhao Ming told me!
That means one of these two people must be lying to me!
Zhao Ming was referring to a gambling addict who had been harassing him.
The gambling addict kept asking Zhao Ming for money, using Gu Yao's father as an excuse.
Left with no other choice, Zhao Ming offered money and leaked information, telling the gambling addict to go to Aunt Gu for money.
Ultimately, this led to Aunt Gu jumping off the bridge and committing suicide, which killed her!
But now, Qian Sheng is telling me...
The gambling addict was hiding under a bridge, eking out a living.
That means he didn't get the 50 million inheritance?
If the inheritance wasn't taken by Zhao Ming either.
That leaves only one possibility...
Did Gu Yao ultimately take away Aunt Gu's 50 million yuan inheritance?
Think of this.
I was terrified.
Could it be that Gu Yao was the one who actually killed Aunt Gu?
"Hi!~"
I took a deep breath, and my pupils contracted sharply.
Qian Sheng noticed my strong reaction.
He laughed and said, "Brother Lu, were you scared?"
I shook my head: "No, I'm just a little surprised. I didn't expect Gu Yao's family to have so many secrets."
"By the way, where might that gambling addict be now?"
Qian Sheng looked at me with some surprise.
"Brother Lu, you don't actually think that fifty million is in the hands of this gambling addict, do you?"
I realized that to unravel these mysteries and determine who was telling the truth and who was lying, I needed to work on this.
We must find this gambling addict first!
Qian Sheng saw my serious expression.
So he said, "Alright, I'll tell you about the last time this gambling addict lingered under the bridge."
Soon, I learned the whereabouts of the gambling addict from Qian Sheng.
After receiving this news.
I simply lost interest in continuing my conversation with Qian Sheng.
So I made up an excuse to leave.
.......
After Wu Wanyue and I left Qian Sheng's company.
Wu Wanyue said, "President Lu, I have a feeling that Qian Sheng might be interested in me?"
I laughed and said, "You're pretty smart; you've already figured it out."
What is your opinion of Qian Sheng?
Wu Wanyue answered seriously: "Qian Sheng comes from a good family, is good-looking, and is rich. He is basically the first choice for many girls."
"how about you?"
"Me?" Wu Wanyue smiled gently. "I have no feelings for Qian Sheng. Actually, I prefer a man like you, President Lu."
Upon hearing this, I was suddenly stunned.
Wu Wanyue's seemingly unintentional attitude suggests that she was not joking.
About three seconds later.
Wu Wanyue laughed and defused the situation: "Haha, I was just joking with President Lu, I was just teasing him."
"President Lu, just take it as me talking nonsense. Don't take it to heart."
I went along with it and nodded, saying, "Wu Wanyue, I'll have Shen Zuo take you home in a bit. You can go home and rest today."
"Mr. Lu, where are you going?" Wu Wanyue asked curiously. "Don't you need me to come with you?"
I shook my head, intending to go find the gambling addict.
Therefore, it is no longer convenient for Wu Wanyue to continue to be with him.
"No need, Shen Zuo, just drop me off on the side of the road and I'll call a car myself."
“Yes, Mr. Lu.” Shen Zuo nodded.
