Chapter 664 The Mysterious Notebook in Old Lady Gu's Hand
Gu Xiyan, Zhou Yao, mother and daughter returned to the Gu family together.
Mrs. Gu and Gu Xiuzhi were sitting in the restaurant having dinner. When they saw the mother and daughter entering the door in a hurry, Mrs. Gu raised her head and looked at them.
"Zhou Yao, Xi Yan, come here."
The two stopped and looked in the direction of the restaurant. Zhou Yao's heart was filled with anger. When he saw Mrs. Gu, a feeling of resentment instantly arose.
She married into the Gu family and worked hard for eighteen years, playing a role in showing her filial piety in front of the old lady. However, the old lady actually encouraged her son to look for a woman outside. Thinking of this, she felt a wave of resentment.
Zhou Yao walked towards the restaurant with a cold face.
"Mom, what are your orders?"
Mrs. Gu didn't notice anything wrong with Zhou Yao, she put down her bowl and chopsticks and looked at her with a cold expression.
"You went to see Director Zhang yesterday. What did he say? What's Tingjun's situation now?"
"Director Zhang said that Tingjun must be sentenced for his attempted kidnapping. The court is currently preparing to open a trial and he needs to find a lawyer as soon as possible."
"Can you rescue the person?" Mrs. Gu has been worried about her son's condition for the past two days, and she has not thought about food and drinks, and she looks very haggard.
"If we talk about Tingjun's matter alone, there is no room for accommodation, but the problem is that Gu Nanyi interfered with it, and she did not give a chance for reconciliation. In addition, the Ye family has secretly negotiated with the police station and the court.
So Director Zhang is helpless."
Mrs. Gu's face was gloomy, her eyes full of hatred.
"That harmful person, she just wants to see her father in jail to be happy."
Gu Xiyan followed up and said: "Grandma, Nan Yi has obtained the control of the company today. Except for my mother, all other shareholders have unanimously approved it. Now think about it, Nan Yi seems to have premeditated it. She first
My father was sent to prison, and then he joined forces with the Ye family and the other two major chaebol families to buy off the company's top executives. Now he has easily obtained the autonomy of the Gu Group, and we are no match for her at all."
As she spoke, Gu Xiyan's eyes turned red.
She was really unwilling in her heart, and even more indignant.
The country girl who grew up in a mud pit in the countryside was the person she looked down upon the most. Today, she can easily be supported by big capital like the Nathan family, the Ye family, and the Dongtai Group. She, who was once so high and mighty, can only
She can be jealous and look up to, but the cruel reality is hard for her to accept.
After Mrs. Gu heard this, her emotions instantly exploded.
"What did you say? Gu Nanyi got control of the Gu Group?"
Gu Xiuzhi was also surprised.
"Xi Yan, the chaebol you are talking about is the Ye family? Hey, it seems that people from the Ye family also have ideas about our company."
Mo Xiaoxuan, who was sitting at the dining table eating, heard Gu Xiuzhi's words and silently put down her spoon: "Sister Nan seems to have met a lot of famous people this year. The Mr. Fu who often appears next to her is said to be from the imperial capital.
Even the Bai family are polite to Mr. Fu. This man is chasing Sister Nan. It is really enviable to say that Mr. Fu not only has outstanding appearance and temperament, but he is also a rich second generation from the imperial capital. Nan Yi
These resources in my hand may be related to Mr. Fu."
Mrs. Gu frowned and looked at Mo Xiaoxuan.
"Who would be stupid enough to like a lowly person like her? I think the most they can do is play with her."
"Maybe, but Sister Nan did get a lot of benefits from it."
Gu Xiyan took Mo Xiaoxuan's words to heart. That Mr. Fu had indeed become very close to Gu Nanyi in recent months. Could it be that the Nathan family members really got in touch with Gu Nanyi through him?
?
If this is the case, who is Mr. Fu?
Madam Gu was in a state of confusion. She originally wanted Gu Nanyi and Zhou Yao to fight each other, but she didn't expect that Zhou Yao would be kicked out by Gu Nanyi that day without fighting.
What troubles her now is that once Gu Nan takes control of the Gu family, based on her attitude towards the Gu family, won't the Gu family be completely doomed?
Thinking of this, Mrs. Gu suddenly became bored.
"Xiuzhi, push me back to the room."
"Okay." Gu Xiuzhi and Mo Xiaoxuan helped Mrs. Gu sit back in the wheelchair. They ignored Zhou Yao and Gu Xiyan, mother and daughter, and walked directly around them towards their bedroom.
Mo Xiaoxuan glanced at Gu Xiyan, and then left with Mrs. Gu and Gu Xiuzhi.
Only Zhou Yao and Gu Xiyan, mother and daughter, were left in the restaurant. Zhou Yao's eyes looked towards where the old lady was sitting. The soup bowl on the table meant for the old lady was empty. Seeing this, Zhou Yao looked at the place where the old lady was sitting.
A sneer flashed in Yao's eyes.

After Mrs. Gu returned to the room, she wheeled her wheelchair to the dressing table, opened the drawer and took out a key from inside.
"Xiuzhi, take out the mahogany box from my closet."
"Okay." Gu Xiuzhi didn't know what the old lady was going to do.
She walked over to the wardrobe that was holding the old lady's finger, opened the mahogany wardrobe and took a look. The wardrobe was full of clothes, and she didn't see any boxes or anything like that.
"Where is the box you mentioned?"
"Under the pile of clothes on the left."
"Oh, I found it." Gu Xiuzhi moved her clothes away, and there was a beautiful square wooden box underneath the clothes. The wooden box was also carved with many exquisite patterns, including dragons and phoenixes, and the four corners of the wooden box were inlaid with each other.
Engraved with a purple gemstone the size of a thumb cap.
Although Gu Xiuzhi was a village woman, she was attracted by this exquisite box at first sight and secretly thought that this box must be worth a lot of money.
She carefully took out the box, held it in her hands, and walked to Mrs. Gu.
"Is this what you're talking about?"
"Yes, that's it." Mrs. Gu reached out and took the wooden box.
Mo Xiaoxuan on the side was also attracted by this exquisite wooden box.
"It's so beautiful, grandma, is this an antique? The four purple gemstones above must be very valuable."
As if she didn't hear Mo Xiaoxuan's words, Mrs. Gu inserted the key in her hand into the copper lock of the wooden box.
With a "click" sound, the copper lock opened.
She couldn't wait to open the box. Gu Xiuzhi and Mo Xiaoxuan looked into the box. There were really many good things.
There was a box full of jade bracelets, gold and silver jewelry, but Mrs. Gu turned a blind eye to the jewelry. She poured them all out and threw them on the bed. Then she opened a wooden board at the base of the wooden box, and there was a mezzanine inside.
Holding a black leather notebook.
The moment Mrs. Gu saw the notebook, a bright light flashed in her dry well-like eyes, as if she had grabbed the last life-saving straw and hurriedly took it in her hand.
"Grandma, what is this?"
Mrs. Gu laughed: "This thing may be the key to saving Tingjun."
Gu Xiuzhi and Mo Xiaoxuan were confused. Can a notebook save people? Is there anything special about this notebook?
"By the way, is there any news about Zhang Li?"
Gu Xiuzhi shook her head, "I have already contacted Zhang Li's parents. They all said that Zhang Li has not returned to the countryside in the past two days. Several colleagues from Zhang Li's previous unit in Pingcheng have also asked, and they have not contacted Zhang Li.
Pass."
Mrs. Gu's eyebrows were tightly knitted.
"Where can Zhang Li go now that she's pregnant?"
"Is it possible that she regretted having this child after knowing that her cousin was arrested?" Mo Xiaoxuan speculated in a low voice.
After hearing this, Mrs. Gu immediately shook her head and rejected Mo Xiaoxuan's conjecture.
"Impossible, I promised Zhang Li that no matter what, as long as she can give birth to the eldest grandson of the Gu family, I will reward her with five million. Even if Tingjun goes in, the child in her belly is still valuable, and she will not be so stupid.
"
"That's strange. Ever since Zhang Li came to the house that day, she suddenly seemed to have disappeared. Her phone was also turned off. Can anything happen?"
After hearing Gu Xiuzhi's last words, the old lady's nerves suddenly tightened.
That day she hurried to the film and television city to settle the score with Gu Nan and left Zhang Li at home. She thought she would go back on her own, but Zhang Li disappeared innocently that day.
The only people at home at that time were Zhou Yao and Gu Xiyan. Could it be that they did something to Zhang Li?
