Back then, in order to get Gu Zheng to agree to repay the Meng family, Old Master Gu had given up something important.
Now, because of a few words from Meng Wan, Gu Zheng’s patience was completely exhausted. He directly cut off all contact with the Meng family.
Most importantly…
Old Master Meng’s eyes were red as he coughed violently. “My illness is getting worse and worse. I spent a lot of money to get a doctor to treat me. Only Jinchuan Grass can treat me, but it’s impossible to buy it in the world. But I heard that Gu Zheng has more than 100 stalks of Jinchuan Grass. If I don’t get those herbs, I won’t be able to keep my life.”
Meng Wan shuddered.
Madam Meng also knew that they had caused huge trouble.
The old master had done too many bad things. He would always dream of his enemies coming to seek revenge on him. His body was getting worse by the day. Only Jinchuan Grass could treat his illness.
They spent a lot of effort to find out where they could get Jinchuan Grass, but Gu Zheng had already cut off all contact with them.
Old Master Meng rubbed his brows. “Wan Wan, I don’t care what happened today. You have to follow me to apologize. Even if you don’t like Qiao Xi and think she’s a b*tch, you can’t express it. Moreover, Gu Zheng seems to like her very much. You have to beg for their forgiveness.
“So long as we obtain Jinchuan Grass, we’ll slowly deal with Qiao Xi! I’ll have to trouble you to do this first.”
Madam Meng advised softly, “Wan Wan, your grandfather is right. We have to obtain Jinchuan Grass before dealing with Qiao Xi. After that, your grandfather will definitely help you.”
Master Meng agreed. “That’s right! Wan Wan, lower your head and apologize to Young Master Gu and Qiao Xi. When Young Master Gu is tired of playing around, he’ll chase Qiao Xi out. At that time, he’ll definitely welcome you in!”
Meng Wan wiped her tears. It was not difficult for her to apologize to Gu Zheng, but asking her to bow her head to Qiao Xi was simply a great humiliation!
Why was that b*tch so lucky to have Young Master Gu’s protection? Even though it was only temporary, Meng Wan still felt jealous.
Old Master Meng had a helpless expression. “Young Master Gu only got married to Qiao Xi on an impulse. You should be the one marrying him. Grandpa knows that you’re unhappy about it, but as long as you get Jinchuan Grass, I’ll personally kill Qiao Xi. Moreover, Gu Zheng won’t suspect us. We have to swallow our anger for now, understand?”
Meng Wan took a deep breath, and her eyes were vicious. “Alright! After this matter is done, I’ll make Qiao Xi wish she were dead!”
…
Longwan Residential.
Qiao Xi gathered the destroyed Jinchuan Grass.
Song Shiyu looked confused. “Young Madam, is the grass that important?”
This was the first time Song Shijing saw Qiao Xi, the legendary Mrs. Gu, after returning from a mission.
He looked at the herbs on the ground. He did not expect them to be Jinchuan Grass. In order to suppress the poison in Gu Zheng’s body, he had searched everywhere for it.
Previously, he had investigated the appearance of Jinchuan Grass in medical books, so he could tell that the herb Madam planted was Jinchuan Grass that had yet to mature.
This patch of Jinchuan Grass had been destroyed by Meng Wan. No matter how good Qiao Xi’s temper was, she could not help but flare up. Moreover, Qiao Xi was not someone to be provoked.
Song Shijing was about to say, “This is Jinchuan…”
“Huh?”
Song Shiyu suddenly shouted, “Young Madam, you’re so smart! The president hates the Meng family, but on account of the past, he couldn’t find a reason to get rid of them. This was a good opportunity to sever ties with the Meng family!
“Killing two birds with one stone! Not only did you slap Meng Wan’s face but you also solved a big problem for the president! Young Madam, you’re indeed a genius!”
Song Shijing: “…”
When he was overseas, Song Shiyu always called to say that Young Madam was brave and resourceful. She was not even worthy of the president.
However, why did he feel that the young madam in Song Shiyu’s eyes carried a halo?
Qiao Xi’s phone rang as she picked up the ruined Jinchuan Grass.
Qin An’s shocked voice sounded. “Holy sh*t! Why was the Jinchuan Grass destroyed?”
Qiao Xi’s voice was cold. “Meng Wan did it.”
Qin An curled his lips. “I heard that Old Master Meng has been looking for Jinchuan Grass. Meng Wan crushed and destroyed more than a hundred stalks?”
Qiao Xi said indifferently, “Now that the Meng family already knows that the Gu family has Jinchuan Grass, they’ll definitely visit and apologize before forcing us to hand it over.”
Qin An scoffed. “Where’s the Jinchuan Grass?”
Qiao Xi smiled lightly. “Third Brother, spread the news. Tell everyone that Gu Zheng has a large amount of Jinchuan Grass, and it has to be made known to the Gu family as well.”
In her opinion, the Meng family would first make a trip to the Gu family’s old mansion. They would ask Madam Gu to take action. At that time, Madam Gu would force her to forgive Meng Wan.
Then…
Qiao Xi smiled meaningfully, her eyes filled with coldness.
