Chapter 268: Only Brainless People Would Give In Modestly
Gu Qiqi pushed open the door and walked out.
Upon seeing the visitors, her slightly curved lips were immediately pursed coldly.
“What’s the matter?” His businesslike tone was neither servile nor overbearing.
“You brat, what’s with your attitude?” Old Madam Gu snorted coldly.
“Sister, hurry up and help Grandma in. The sun is so hot. Aren’t you afraid that we might get a heat stroke?”
Gu Xuexue looked at Gu Qiqi’s outfit with jealousy.
She looked so professional and elite!
She was simply different from ordinary high school students.
If she stood next to Gong Sheng like this, Gong Sheng would probably take a few more looks, right?
She was so envious.
“Feeling sunburned? I thought that you guys lacked calcium and specially came all the way here to bask in the sun. Unfortunately, I’m really sorry. The laboratory doesn’t accept patients with calcium deficiency.” Gu Qiqi laughed coldly.
Calcium deficiency?
Wasn’t that indirectly calling them spineless?
Old Madam Gu and Gu Xuexue’s faces darkened.
Beside her, the security guard laughed.
This girl was interesting! Why didn’t he think of refuting her like this just now?
“Stupid girl, don’t be so sharp-tongued with me!” The Old Madam snorted. She knew that she couldn’t enter this laboratory today, so she could only put on the airs of an elder and order Gu Qiqi. “There’s a problem with the Shen family’s company. As a member of the family, you have to do something!”
Gu Qiqi laughed coldly in her heart. She was admitting that she was a member of the family again?
Didn’t she want to beat her to death yesterday and kick her out of the house?
But… Wait a minute!
The Shen family was Old Madam’s maiden home. Why would there be a problem out of nowhere?
Seeing the doubts on her face, Gu Xuexue took the opportunity to reprimand her. “Sister, you’re too unconcerned about your family. Haven’t you seen the news?”
Gu Qiqi ignored her and turned on her phone.
Indeed, the financial sector was in an uproar.
The Shen family was suspected of including toxic materials in medicine packaging. This was the largest and most serious corporate crime in the Empire in more than ten years.
The presidential palace had personally given the order for the investigation team to enter the Shen Corporation and begin the first step of the investigation!
The Shen factory stopped production!
Shen clan’s goods were taken off the shelves!
The Shen employees went home to wait for work!
The Shen family’s bank account was frozen!
It could be said that if the Shen family couldn’t produce strong evidence to defend themselves, the Shen family would face bankruptcy and huge compensation!
No wonder the Old Madam was so anxious early in the morning.
A cold smile appeared on Gu Qiqi’s lips.
Just as she was about to close the webpage, a local Qing Cheng news article popped up on the screen.
“The Gu family’s mansion in Qing Cheng has been razed to the ground. The country has retrieved the property rights. Today, it will be auctioned.”
Gu Qiqi stared at this piece of news for a few seconds.
Although she was surprised, she secretly praised it.
That was great!
The government had such good foresight.
It was about to confiscate all of Gu Qiushan’s assets so that Gu Meifeng wouldn’t be able to get a single cent!
Heh heh!
This was the best arrangement.
Weren’t they most concerned about money?
Back then, Gu Meifeng had even embezzled her mother’s inheritance. Now, the Gu family’s money couldn’t fall into her hands. She must be heartbroken to death, right?
Thinking about this, Gu Qiqi’s lips curved up slightly. “I’m sorry, but I can’t contribute to such a business matter as a student.”
“Why can’t you do anything? Just tell the people from the presidential palace! Tell them not to investigate so seriously!” The old lady frowned.
“The presidential palace? I don’t know anyone from there.”
“Sister, how could you not know anyone? If you don’t, how can you enter this laboratory? Don’t shirk responsibility!”
“What if I insist on shirking it?”
“Then, get lost and go home to let Xuexue take the internship instead! Xuexue has a way to contact the people in the presidential palace to settle this matter…”
A trace of coldness flashed across Gu Qiqi’s eyes. “Don’t even think about it.”
“You’re the older sister. What’s wrong with giving in to your younger sister modestly? Isn’t it just an internship opportunity? If you give it to Xuexue, she can still help her family with business. Why won’t you agree?!”
The old lady argued.
It was as if Gu Qiqi was at fault if she didn’t agree.
Gu Qiqi laughed coldly and replied to her word by word. “Because I’m not willing!”
I just want to see you bankrupt.
I would be a moron to be so modest!
