Chapter 2561 - 2565: His Cruelty Came Later
Wan Chong stared at Gu Junzhu in shock, his lips trembling a few times, but he couldn’t utter a single word.
A brother’s wife should never be wronged.
The hatred of taking another’s wife is irreconcilable.
Not touching a brother’s or friend’s woman is the most basic rule for a man.
But his grandfather not only touched a friend’s wife but also had an illegitimate child with her, allowing the illegitimate child to inherit all of Zhang Guangqiang’s property.
If Zhang Guangqiang knew this underground, he definitely wouldn’t rest in peace.
No wonder his grandfather was so afraid of Wang Weihong.
If such a thing got out, the Zhang Family would certainly fight to the death with his grandfather.
Unconsciously, he broke out in a cold sweat.
His throat was dry, and after a long while, he managed to utter a hoarse voice: "Does Zhang Guangqiang’s son know that Zhang Guangqiang is not his biological father?"
"He doesn’t know," Gu Junzhu replied. "Your grandfather and Zhang Guangqiang’s wife are aware that if the truth were exposed, they would be despised by everyone. They kept the secret tightly sealed."
"After Zhang Guangqiang’s death, they never maintained close contact again."
"Not many people in this world know about this matter, probably only Wang Weihong, your grandfather, and those who were too close to Zhang Guangqiang discovered this secret, using it as leverage to blackmail your grandfather."
"However, your grandfather was also on guard against Wang Weihong. Wang Weihong has many shady deals in his hands too."
"The two of them have been balancing each other. For so many years, Wang Weihong has kept this secret for your grandfather."
With difficulty, Wan Chong asked, "Wang Weihong... what... what has he done?"
"His crimes far surpass your grandfather’s," Gu Junzhu said. "He is inherently vicious with despicable means. The evidence Xiao Gu Qi has gathered in such a short time is enough to put him behind bars for life..."
Gu Junzhu looked at Wan Chong: "Do you know why Wang Hengzhi was born with epilepsy and mental issues?"
Wan Chong asked, "Why?"
"Because his daughter-in-law was drugged by his enemies," Gu Junzhu said. "In the business world, for the sake of profit, he would stop at nothing. His enemies, in retaliation, bribed one of his family’s servants to poison his daughter-in-law’s prenatal medicine."
Wan Chong’s face turned pale, his lips quivered again, but he remained silent.
"He didn’t know at that time," Gu Junzhu said. "Later, his enemy and Wang Weihong were competing for a piece of land. His enemy lost, and for a moment of pleasure, his enemy revealed this secret to Wang Weihong, mocking how Wang Weihong’s daughter-in-law bore a sick fool. Do you know what Wang Weihong did?"
"What did he do?" Wan Chong asked instinctively.
Gu Junzhu: "Of course, his enemy wasn’t foolish enough to directly tell Wang Weihong that his daughter-in-law gave birth to an idiot because of the poison. Wang Weihong’s enemy only mentioned that someone had drugged his daughter-in-law, without saying it was him."
"Later, Wang Weihong spent a lot of money to find evidence that his enemy had poisoned his daughter-in-law. With that evidence, he forced his enemy to donate a large portion of property to him, leaving his enemy with only a small part of the remaining assets and immigrating abroad."
Gu Junzhu curled his lips slightly, looked at Wan Chong, and said, "Originally, there’s nothing wrong with that, right?"
Wan Chong nodded, "Anyone who knows such a thing would retaliate. Wang Weihong doesn’t seem wrong in this matter."
"Yes," Gu Junzhu nodded, "His viciousness lies in what came after."
