After Transmigration: Unexpectedly Wed the Ruthless Tycoon-Chapter 106 Two Shameless People
Chapter 106: 106 Two Shameless People
Early the next morning, after Mother Gu finished her breakfast, she hurriedly went out.
As soon as she left, Sister Sun followed right behind.
Mother Gu’s behavior today was too unusual. She usually never left the house, but today she not only went out so early, but also looked flustered, which was clearly suspicious.
Mother Gu hired a rickshaw to take her to a teahouse that Sister Sun recognized—it was the same place she had called Zhu Fang to last time.
Although this teahouse was a Gu Family business, it was part of Old Mrs. Gu’s dowry when she married into the family! Hence, regardless of the fact that over the years, Old Mrs. Gu had become the cornerstone of the Gu Family.
Even back then, this teahouse was Old Mrs. Gu’s.
Sister Sun blinked, waited a moment after Mother Gu entered, and then followed her in. As expected, someone came to greet her.
"Where did the young madam just go?" Sister Sun asked the attendant directly.
The attendant naturally recognized Sister Sun, knowing she was someone alongside Old Mrs. Gu, so she said directly, "The young madam went to the Rain Listening Room on the second floor. A man is waiting there for her."
"What man, don’t talk nonsense, that’s the young madam’s nephew." Sister Sun replied coldly.
Hearing this, the attendant lowered her head slightly and said, "Yes, I just misspoke."
"Open the room next to the Rain Listening Room for me, I want to have some tea." Sister Sun said, raising her eyes. The room next to the Rain Listening Room shared a balcony, but it usually wasn’t opened.
Meanwhile, Mother Gu had already entered the room. As soon as she opened the door, she saw Ouyang Xuan with a sinister expression sitting inside drinking tea, seemingly waiting for her.
"Ah Xuan, why are you here if you’re not going to work?" Mother Gu gritted her teeth and said to Ouyang Xuan. She had to admit, she had always feared this "nephew" over the years.
"I don’t have a job now." Ouyang Xuan sneered and patted the spot beside him, saying, "Come, Auntie, sit next to me."
Mother Gu didn’t want to comply, but seeing Ouyang Xuan’s unpleasant expression, she had no choice but to walk over, saying as she went, "Anyway, a doctor’s salary isn’t high, just find another job. Auntie has some money, I’ll give it to you."
As Mother Gu approached Ouyang Xuan, intending to take out the money in her hand, Ouyang Xuan grabbed her hand, his thumb stroking the back of her hand twice, saying, "Auntie, you have to help me with this matter!"
He emphasized the last two words particularly heavily.
"Alright, alright!" Mother Gu quickly nodded, saying, "Let go, it’s not good if others see this!"
Seeing Mother Gu agree, Ouyang Xuan let go of her.
Mother Gu sat down beside Ouyang Xuan, deliberately shifting slightly to the side as he didn’t make a move, saying, "Do you want money? Or how do you want to handle it?"
"Money is important to me, but isn’t this money supposed to be left for my brother to use?" After speaking, Ouyang Xuan reached out to touch Mother Gu’s lower abdomen.
Mother Gu frowned slightly, subtly shifting her body to the side, asking, "Then what do you want to do? Regarding the entire Gu Family, I have no real power, only some scattered funds. Now that you’re out of work, isn’t money quite essential?"
"Money can be earned in the future, but for the Gu Family’s large business, I need you to do something for me, Auntie." Ouyang Xuan reached over and put his arm around Mother Gu’s shoulders.
Hearing the words "Gu Family’s business," Mother Gu hesitated for a moment.
She had always known Ouyang Xuan’s wild ambition, but she hadn’t thought to thwart it because she couldn’t obtain any benefits in the Gu Family either.
If the Ouyang Family possessed everything, wouldn’t Old Mrs. Gu have to listen to her? At that time, there would be none of Old Mrs. Gu’s arrogance!
But recently, she found her husband treated her very well.
If she really took away everything from the Gu Family, wouldn’t he feel pained? This was the first time in many years that Mother Gu actively thought of her husband.
Ouyang Xuan didn’t notice the hesitation in Mother Gu’s eyes at all and continued, "Auntie, as long as you help your nephew this time, I will never bother you again. I’ll let you have your peace, and I won’t tell anyone your secrets. They will rot in my stomach, and no one will know in this lifetime."
Upon hearing this, Mother Gu was tempted, and she looked at Ouyang Xuan, asking, "Then tell me, what do you need help with?"
"Very simple, I want Gu Fuqiao." Ouyang Xuan’s words made Mother Gu stand up immediately.
Although she didn’t like Gu Fuqiao, Gu Fuqiao was still her biological daughter. Such a thing was absolutely not allowed! Absolutely not!
"Have you gone mad? She’s your cousin!" Mother Gu looked at Ouyang Xuan with a bit of tremor.
Ouyang Xuan, however, replied calmly, "That’s up to Auntie. Anyway, if that secret gets out, Gu Fuqiao won’t be affected, but you, me, and even Cousin Qingqing will be in dire straits, and so will the entire Ouyang Family. Auntie, you know Old Mrs. Gu isn’t easy to deal with, right?"
Hearing the mention of Old Mrs. Gu, Mother Gu’s body wavered.
Seeing her silent, Ouyang Xuan pressed on, "I won’t say much more. By then, we’ll be in trouble, while Gu Fuqiao will be untouched. After all, once your daughter got married, when did she ever treat you as her mother? Have you forgotten how she defied you the last time?"
Although Mother Gu felt such a matter was morally unbearable, she weighed the pros and cons, as well as Gu Fuqiao’s disobedience and defiance against her.
Mother Gu hardened her heart, "Then it’s good to teach her a lesson... maybe then she won’t be so rebellious and will be well-behaved in the future."
"Indeed." Ouyang Xuan incited further, placing his hand on Mother Gu’s shoulder, "Then, later, go and arrange for her to meet with me."
"Okay." Mother Gu agreed.
Meanwhile, Sister Sun, standing on the balcony, had heard all the information without missing a word. She didn’t bother to return to the Gu Family; instead, after calling Old Mrs. Gu to inform her, she immediately went to Gu Fuqiao’s house. Upon learning the news, Old Mrs. Gu, although angry, was somewhat relieved as she was likely calculating how to deal with it.
Sister Sun feared Mother Gu would act before her, hastened her steps along the way, and when she arrived at Gu Fuqiao’s house and knocked on the door, she realized Gu Fuqiao wasn’t home at all.
Stomping her foot anxiously, she said, "What should we do now?" Then, she glanced up at the dark door.
If Gu Fuqiao wasn’t aware of this matter, given her filial nature... she would certainly fall into the trap this time.
