Chapter 307: Exhausting All Strategies
Liu Zhiwen recalled her most beautiful memory, her face smiling faintly, "I have never seen such a good-looking young man. That year he had just started university. His handsome face was not as cold as it is now. I boldly called out to him, and he would smile at me. He’s completely different from now. Now, he only smiles at An Junxi."
"Later, my cousin told me that the Gu Family and Senye were going to have an arranged marriage. She would be Young Master Gu’s bride... I liked him too! But our family didn’t have the status of the Yin Family. Why would the Gu Family even consider us?"
"At that time, I was thinking, it would be better if they got married later. Then, when I grew up, when our Liu Family also became strong, when I had the qualifications to marry him, I wanted to be his bride."
"One day, my cousin came to me crying, saying that Young Master Gu had a girl he liked named Lv Mo. Young Master Gu was unwilling to marry her. My cousin and I secretly went to see Lv Mo. She was very beautiful, but it was exactly because she was beautiful that she deserved to die!"
He Sirui listened, entranced. Liu Zhiwen suddenly raised her voice, her face twisted with rage, making He Sirui break out in goosebumps.
It was clear Liu Zhiwen still hated that woman called Lv Mo deeply.
Liu Zhiwen was only thirteen back then, and she already wanted to die alone. How terrifying was that?
He Sirui was terrified. She never knew, after all these years, that such a frightening she-devil clothed in beauty had been lurking around her!
Liu Zhiwen continued, "My cousin didn’t know what to do, so I gave her the idea to deal with Lv Mo. My cousin actually went ahead with it. That foolish woman was so focused on getting rid of Lv Mo that Young Master Gu ended up hating her... Haha, it was really so satisfying! I didn’t have to do anything, and two rivals were eliminated."
"I thought that since Young Master Gu hated my cousin, the arranged marriage between the two families would be nullified. Who knew my cousin had the guts to drug Young Master Gu and get pregnant with his child to force the marriage? After marriage, Young Master Gu still hated her... Who can she blame? Even if I hadn’t egged her on, she would have done it anyway. She was just as bad as me."
"Young Master Gu... no, I should call him my cousin-in-law. My cousin-in-law never returned to the Gu Family house after the marriage. I purposely befriended Gu Qianlan just to find a chance to see my cousin-in-law at the Gu Family house, but I never got to see him. Gu Qianlan has a temper worse than mine. If it weren’t for Yi Ke, I would have taught her a lesson long ago."
He Sirui couldn’t believe what she was hearing. Liu Zhiwen was too scary!
At such a young age, she already understood how to scheme step by step, using everyone around her to get what she wanted... After all her meticulous planning, what did she get in the end? Now, Gu Yikun can’t even remember her name fully!
Liu Zhiwen reached an agitated point where she had to let it out, "Everyone knows my cousin died in childbirth, but no one ever questioned why she had a difficult labor."
He Sirui was shocked, "Was it you?"
Liu Zhiwen smiled slightly, "Of course it was me. Who asked her to drug Young Master Gu? I was teaching her a lesson for Young Master Gu. It’s a pity she died and left behind a bastard child."
"I certainly wouldn’t harm the child anymore. There’s no need to expose myself for a kid. My cousin loved Young Master Gu to the point of madness. In the end, she died not even knowing how she died. That really makes me feel so good."
"Our Liu Family is not like the Yin Family. Over the years, the Yin Family seemed to take care of us, but everyone knew it was just charity. This made them look more noble. My dad said that once our Liu Family became strong, we would make everyone who looked down on us bow and kneel before us."
He Sirui took a deep breath, "Your whole family are traitors. The Yin Family is still helping you now. They even risked offending the Gu Family for you. Your whole family are traitors!"
Liu Zhiwen said, "Even my cousin isn’t helping me this time. They’re just waiting to see our Liu Family’s downfall!"
He Sirui shouted, "Your whole family harbors villainous hearts. Think about how much the Yin Family has helped you. Yet, you think their help was due? This time, they didn’t help and now they’re your enemies... Haha, thank goodness our He Family didn’t get involved with you. Otherwise, we’d have been stabbed in the back by you as well!"
Liu Zhiwen did not care about He Sirui’s scolding. She said, "Lv Mo and my cousin are both dead, and there’s still Lv Jing. I initially wanted to directly throw her into the sea, but at that time, my family company had some issues. By the time my dad got through the crisis, An Junxi appeared."
Speaking of An Junxi, Liu Zhiwen’s hatred deepened, "My dad taught me never to take action myself. When I found out Lv Jing was kicked out of the private hospital by President Gu, I knew An Junxi was not easy to deal with, or rather, President Gu really loved her and protected her too well. That bitch Lv Mo was nothing. He had long forgotten Lv Mo."
"I knew Lv Jing was as unwilling as I was, so I had someone find Lv Jing and told her I could help her kidnap An Junxi. Lv Jing agreed."
"I thought this time it would be the same as last time. Lv Jing would kill An Junxi, and President Gu wouldn’t let her off either, leaving me as the only one beside President Gu. But An Junxi returned safe and sound... At that time, I couldn’t understand why Lv Jing failed to act despite having a perfect opportunity. Later, I found out that the Gu Family had an army. This was the reason my dad had to flee the country."
He Sirui tried to organize her thoughts, "Two years ago, An Junxi left Yan City. What was the real reason behind it?"
"Gu Kuangxia was eager to return to the country to fight for shares. My dad helped Gu Kuangxia return to the country in exchange for 10% of Gu Family shares and An Junxi’s life. Now you understand, right."
He Sirui understood, "Your Liu Family is really ridiculous. Relying on the Yin Family, you acted domineering in Yan City for so many years. Did you really think you could play power games in Yan City? To even dare covet Gu Family shares... Liu Guanquan was truly overestimating himself. If he had been low-key, he could still play in Yan City. But a moment of unchecked ambition put him in Gu Yikun’s hands. I wonder if he regrets it now."
There was no regret on Liu Zhiwen’s face, "We grew up in a dirty circle. I’ve seen my dad being snubbed. Those people act like dogs in front of the Gu and Yin Families, but show a different face to my dad. I vowed when I was very young, that when I grew up, I would make these people kneel and beg before me!"
He Sirui sneered, "Now aren’t you the one kneeling and begging before me? Over the two years An Junxi left Yan City, you never got a chance to get close to Gu Yikun. It has nothing to do with others. He never saw you. Even if you hadn’t offended An Junxi, he wouldn’t know whether you are Liu Zhiwen or Li Zhiwen. Don’t you think you’re laughable?"
Liu Zhiwen was in a daze. For the past two years, she thought An Junxi might be dead at Gu Kuangxia’s hands. She went to great lengths to sign with Wanling Entertainment but still got no opportunities.
An Junxi betrayed him, divorced him, and no matter how he pleaded, she never stayed. Yet, he still thought of that woman day and night.
When An Junxi returned after two years, he acted as if nothing had happened and forgave her, treating her even better than before.
Why on earth was that?
She really couldn’t understand, why!
