Lady Gu Is Too Weak To Fend For Herself-Chapter 1408 - 1408 Rumors Stop With Wise People

1408 Rumors Stop With Wise People

“Gu Corporation is Gu Zheng’s business. If he’s willing to let Xi Xi take over, what can an outsider like He Wenxian do? She even said that she’s Gu Zheng’s childhood sweetheart. Isn’t she just rushing to be a mistress?! Such a disgusting person can’t be the Thousand Faces Immortal Doctor!” 𝘧r𝑒𝘦𝒘𝘦𝙗ｎovel.𝐜o𝒎

Hearing Li Xing’er’s indignant words, Old Madam Li and Old Master Li could not help but frown.

Old Master Li said meaningfully, “I know some news about the He family. All these years, the He family has been holding charity banquets and making donations. They’re famous philanthropists. He Weinian and He Wenxian have done a perfect job. It makes people think…”

He could not find any words to describe the He family.

!!

Gu Yao blurted out, “It’s like an act! It’s as if it was done according to a script!”

Old Master Li was enlightened. “Ah Yao has a point. No one can find anything wrong with He Weinian’s and He Wenxian’s words and actions. Perhaps there are really such perfect people in the world, but this family always gives me the feeling that they’re fake. It’s as if they’re acting according to a script.”

Gu Yao hurriedly nodded. “Qiao Xi said the same thing!”

Old Master Li said indifferently, “Ever since the He family returned to the country, many people have been rushing to curry favor with them, but we don’t have much contact with the He family. I’ve lived for so long and have seen many things. He Weinian looks like a kind person on the surface, but in reality… he’s unfathomable.”

When Gu Yao heard Old Master Li’s evaluation, he was even more excited. There was actually someone who had the same thoughts as Gu Zheng and Qiao Xi. They were finally not fighting alone anymore. At least someone else could see through He Weinian’s hypocritical mask.

Back then, when Gu Zheng cut off all ties with He Weinian, those people said that Gu Zheng was ungrateful because the He family’s reputation was too perfect. Now, it seemed that rumors stopped at wise people. Only a smart person like Old Master Li could understand.

“Ah Yao, you just said that He Wenxian clearly knows that Xi Xi is Gu Shan, yet she still wanted to chase her out of the company?” Old Master Li asked casually.

“Yes, Qiao Xi was working in the design department at that time. He Wenxian went to Gu Corporation to bid and mocked Qiao Xi in front of everyone. After that, He Weinian personally brought He Wenxian to apologize. His attitude was very sincere, but I kept having the feeling that…”

Old Master Li smiled heartily. “Do you think that He Wenxian has always been so perfect since she was young and has never had any negative news? Why would she be so rash to target Xi Xi?”

Old Master Li’s words hit the nail on the head. This was also something that Gu Yao could not figure out. Even if He Wenxian was jealous of Qiao Xi, she should not have criticized her in front of everyone!

“Some people are good at pretending, but there are always times when they slip up. After all, that’s her nature. No matter how much she hides, she’ll expose herself,” Old Madam Li said with a cold smile.

The two elders of the Li family were both smart people and naturally understood the logic behind this. Old Madam Li frowned. “But is she really the famous Thousand Faces Immortal Doctor?”

Li Xing’er’s face was filled with disdain. How could a genius like the Thousand Faces Immortal Doctor be a hypocrite like He Wenxian?

Just as Li Xing’er was feeling indignant, she heard a group of people walking over. “Old Master Li!”

Many experts greeted Old Master Li respectfully when they saw him. When He Wenxian saw this scene, her eyes were filled with greed. If she could obtain Old Master Li’s recognition, then…

“Old Master Li, Miss He is the Thousand Faces Immortal Doctor. I remember you saying that you admire the Thousand Faces Immortal Doctor very much. Today, she brought a hundred-year-old ancient painting that has been restored. Please take a look.”

Old Master Li’s gaze landed on He Wenxian. He did suspect He Wenxian’s identity, but the invitations for this event had to be delivered to the guests personally. Moreover, her identity had to be repeatedly verified. In that case, how was He Wenxian pretending to be the Thousand Faces Immortal Doctor without being discovered?

Everyone came to the middle of the hall. The ancient painting was slowly unfolded and placed on the table for everyone to admire.

Li Xing’er had learned some things about cultural relic restoration from her grandfather since she was young. She also felt that this painting was restored perfectly. It was almost impossible to tell that it was a painting from a hundred years ago. However, she quickly frowned.

No! He Wenxian had bullied Xi Xi. She would never admit that He Wenxian was capable!

“I heard that you’re Xi Xi’s friend.” Li Xing’er did not want to pay attention to her, but He Wenxian took the initiative to lean forward and greet her warmly.

“Miss Li, you also know how to restore cultural relics. What do you think of this painting?”

As soon as He Wenxian spoke, everyone’s eyes landed on Li Xing’er.
