Destined with You-Chapter 1190 - 1195: Entanglement 11

Gu Yunci had disappeared. At first, Zhou Mantong didn’t take it seriously, thinking she was just out somewhere enjoying herself. But after several visits to her apartment turned up no sign of Gu Yunci, Zhou Mantong began to worry.

Though Gu Yunci was a disgrace, she was still her own flesh and blood. How could she possibly ignore that?

Feeling uneasy, she returned to the Gu Family home. That night, after carefully attending to Gu Huai’an, she told him, "Huai’an, Xiao Ci is missing, I’m worried something happened to her."

"Don’t even mention her to me. If you do, get out!" Gu Huai’an felt deeply embarrassed even thinking about Gu Yunci.

"Huai’an, I know Xiao Ci was wrong, but she is your daughter. She carries your blood. She is from the Gu Family line. It’s been so long, and everyone has almost forgotten. You can’t possibly disown your own daughter," Zhou Mantong gently rubbed herself against him with her voluptuous chest.

Gu Huai’an furrowed his brows. He had been harsh on Gu Yunci in a moment of anger. His daughter had thoroughly shamed him!

But, as time passed, his anger faded somewhat. She was his own child after all. He had no sons, only two daughters. Gu Qingxin was now married above her station and would certainly have nothing more to do with him. All he was left with was Gu Yunci.

"It’s all your fault for not raising her properly, turning her into such a libertine!" Gu Huai’an was still very angry when he reminded her of this.

"It’s my fault, it’s all my fault. This time I will discipline her properly. But what are we going to do now? She must be in trouble," Zhou Mantong whispered, clinging to his neck.

"Fine, if she really cannot be found, report her missing. I’ll have some people look for her."

Gu Huai’an thought that he had raised Gu Yunci to be useful. A daughter could marry into a powerful family. Gu Yunci’s reputation was now associated with scandal and no family of decent standing would want her for their young master. But she could still serve as a mistress to some older men or be used to secure some lucrative business deals.

Lately, he had been busy with a real estate project in cooperation with Beiming Han, but things were not going well. If this continued, his company would be done for.

He had hoped that the partnership with Beiming Han on a project worth billions would yield significant profits. However, Beiming Han had brought in managers, engineers, accountants, and other professionals, and Gu Huai’an had not seen a single penny from Beiming Group.

Worst of all, he had nearly sunk half of his company into the preliminary stage of this project to attract Beiming Han’s investment. The project was lengthy and the return on capital was slow. He was in a situation where he was not only losing his wife but also his soldiers.

Now, he didn’t dare to defy Beiming Han, fearing that Beiming Han might withdraw his investment in a fit of anger. That would be the end for him!

Right now, he was completely under Beiming Han’s control.

He needed to find a way to turn this situation around.

...

A few days later, both Bai Jingqing and Bai Ruiqing were discharged from the hospital.

Ever since that day, Bai Qianqian had not come to see Bai Jingqing. Though worried, she didn’t dare to come anymore. She was scared, truly scared.

Bai Qianqian felt she was in utter chaos. Even though she no longer loved Bai Ruiqing, because he had once saved her life at the reservoir, she didn’t want to hurt him and was deeply worried for him.

She couldn’t bear to see a good man change so dramatically because of her.
