Chapter 553 The Fish Has Already Taken The Bait
The air was silent again.
The person on the other end of the phone was shocked. The corners of his mouth twitched slightly. “Eldest Miss, what do you think we should do about this? We’re…”
Qiao Xi’s eyes narrowed. Yao Mengqing was really stubborn. Not only did she poison her, but she even wanted to hire someone to assassinate her for fear that she would survive.
Unfortunately… Miss Yao was really unlucky. She was the one who developed the poison, and the assassin she wanted to hire was also her subordinate.
Qiao Xi was straightforward. “Take it!”
“This-“
“She wants to kill me. If you reject her, she’ll just find others to kill me. I might as well use my own people. That way, I’ll be more at ease.”
On the other hand, Yao Mengqing received a message on her phone. The other party only sent an ‘OK’ emoji.
She beamed as she quietly waited for the news of Qiao Xi’s death.
“Young Master Lu, it’s been so long. Have you already convinced Uncle Gu to let me marry Ah Zheng to be the new Mrs. Gu?”
Lu Yan’s voice was cold. “Yes.”
Yao Mengqing was proud of herself and forgot about the stinging pain on her face.
The next day.
Gu Weiming specially sent invitations to all his relatives and friends to gather at the Gu family’s old residence as he had an important matter to announce.
The branch families of the Gu family were all present, but Gu Zheng was not there.
Gu Yao was so anxious that his forehead was covered in sweat. He asked the assistant beside him, “Where’s Gu Zheng? The old man invited so many people here. There must be something wrong. Could it be that he’s going to announce Lu Yan’s inheritance?! Then, he’ll hand the Gu family over to Lu Yan!”
The assistant hurriedly said, “I’ve already called President Gu and even sent someone to pick him up, but there’s still no news from President Gu!”
Gu Yao was so anxious that his eyebrows were burning. “Quickly call him again and get him to come over quickly. If he comes any later, the Gu family will belong to Lu Yan! This won’t do! I have to stop them!”
Gu Weiming and Huang Lilan appeared hand in hand with Lu Yan standing beside them. Even Yao Mengqing’s family was here, but Gu Zheng was not.
Everyone knew that Gu Weiming was probably going to hand the Gu family to Lu Yan.
At this moment, Gu Zheng was sitting lazily on the sofa. He flipped through the documents and said casually, “Lu Yan won’t be inheriting the Gu family today.”
Song Shijing was confused. “Why?”.
“If Lu Yan wants to inherit the Gu family, there’s no need to invite the Yao family.”
Gu Zheng looked at Yao Mengqing’s name on the document and narrowed his eyes. They flashed coldly. “Have you gotten the poison?”
Song Shijing took out a small glass bottle from his pocket. “Young Madam gave me the poison this morning. It’s the same as Yao Mengqing’s poison, but Young Madam said that this poison is too savage. Unless necessary…”
Before he could finish, Song Shijing choked.
His boss’ eyes were filled with coldness and killing intent. Gu Zheng said casually, “She has to die.”
Song Shijing shuddered and lowered his head.
Since Yao Mengqing wanted to poison Young Madam to death, the president would definitely not let her off!
Gu Zheng sneered. “Inviting the Gu family’s relatives and friends to gather for an announcement… I’ve already guessed what my father is going to do. Let’s go watch the fun.”
Song Shijing was stunned. “To the Gu family’s old residence? Then, Young Madam…”
“Song Shijing,” Gu Zheng said slowly. “Let me handle this. If Mrs. Gu wants to kill Yao Mengqing herself, I’m afraid it’ll dirty her hands.”
On the other hand, Qin An looked at Qiao Xi in shock. “Little Six, you took the job?”
Qiao Xi blinked. “Why wouldn’t I accept it? If I didn’t accept it, she would have gone to look for someone else. Miss Yao poisoned me at the horse ranch and hired an assassin to kill me. She’s trying her best to kill me. It looks like she’s determined to have me dead.”
Qin An frowned. “Then what should we do next? You want to send someone to kill yourself?”
Qiao Xi could not help but laugh out loud. She threw the phone in front of Qin An. “The fish has already taken the bait. What happens next will definitely be very interesting.”

There was a message on her phone. After Qiao Xi sent an ‘OK’ emoji, Yao Mengqing immediately asked when she would take action. Qiao Xi replied that it would be today.
She smiled. “Chairman Gu Weiming invited many relatives and friends to the Gu family today. He said that he wanted to announce something important, but he didn’t invite Gu Zheng, the head of the Gu family, nor did he tell me. Instead, he invited the Yao family.”
