Clinging to Devoted Fiancé, Heiress Slays the World!-Chapter 911: The Wife Tears Apart the Mistress
Once the maid left, only the two of them remained in the dining room.
The splendid crystal chandelier illuminated the sumptuous food on the table, yet Ji Wei had no appetite at all.
She struggled to control her internal trembling, staring directly at the man opposite her: "Mo Qian, you have a good relationship with Zhao Wanqing, is it because she is your—"
"No."
Before Ji Wei could finish her sentence, Gu Moqian directly denied it, "It’s not what you think, Weiwei. Zhao Wanqing has no connection with the Gu Family; she is merely an employee under the Gu Family’s company."
Just an employee of the Gu Family’s company, is it really that simple?
Ji Wei was somewhat skeptical.
"Actually, at the beginning, I also thought Zhao Wanqing was Dad’s illegitimate daughter," Gu Moqian admitted, then continued to narrate the entire story to Ji Wei.
From the time Gu Moqian could remember, he knew of a girl named Zhao Wanqing. Only at that time, Zhao Wanqing was living abroad, and he would often hear the name amidst his parents’ arguments.
Back then, young Gu Moqian thought his dad must have had an affair.
Their parents had a business marriage, a relationship full of interests, which was inherently fragile. At that time, Gu Moqian did not know how to face the complex situation before him; he became more silent and aloof, hard for anyone to approach. Every winter and summer vacation, he would run off to the countryside to hide at his grandfather’s house.
As soon as he graduated from middle school, Gu Moqian applied to study abroad, and he was gone for seven or eight years. During his studies for his master’s and doctorate in Britain, he learned that the girl named Zhao Wanqing had become his father’s personal secretary.
Every time Gu Zhizhou went on a business trip, he would take her along, introducing her to influential business partners and helping her integrate into the upper circles of society.
A young and beautiful woman in her early twenties, placed by his side as a secretary and being together day and night, it was hard not to let one’s thoughts wander. During that period, Nan Huiru made quite a fuss, threatening to divorce several times.
But Gu Zhizhou’s attitude was firm, refusing to yield an inch. The two had fierce quarrels over this, and Nan Huiru angrily returned to the Country, and the two had a cold war that lasted several months.
When Nan Huiru reluctantly returned to Britain, she happened to catch sight of Zhao Wanqing and her mother dining with Gu Zhizhou. Enraged, Nan Huiru stormed into the restaurant and caused a scene.
This farce was captured by the media and widely reported: London’s most successful Chinese entrepreneur openly cheating, the original spouse ripping into the mistress!
The situation escalated, forcing Zhao Wanqing’s mother to leave Britain to lay low.
But Zhao Wanqing stayed.
No matter how Nan Huiru cried, shouted, or even threatened self-harm, Gu Zhizhou remained indifferent and absolutely refused to dismiss Zhao Wanqing. When he threw out the line, "If you can’t stand it, then let’s divorce," Nan Huiru was utterly stunned.
Like a bucket of cold water being poured over her, dousing all her pent-up anger, Nan Huiru had no choice but to turn to her son for help, asking him to deal with the matter of Zhao Wanqing and her mother.
Gu Moqian sent someone to investigate their background, discovering that Zhao Wanfang was actually married, her husband an international police officer. Unfortunately, he had died in the line of duty.
Soon after her husband’s death, Gu Zhizhou started frequent interactions with Zhao Wanfang.
Although they met several times, there was no solid evidence of an ambiguous relationship. Information about Zhao Wanqing’s background was also unavailable.
However, Gu Moqian managed to get a DNA test, which revealed that Zhao Wanqing and Gu Zhizhou were not biologically related.
The moment he saw the test results, the stone weighing on Gu Moqian’s heart finally fell to the ground.
