Chapter 1276 Lobby For Him? 5

Upon hearing that, Ah Quan looked vigilantly at Ah Yong and responded, “I’ll let them send the Little Master home. I’ll go with you Missus.”

He then turned around to give orders to the two black-clothed bodyguards. One of them nodded and got into the car to escort Sis Wang and Mu Xiaocheng home first.

At this moment, Gu Qiwu walked over too.

When Xi Xiaye saw him stopping before her, she could not help but frown slightly.

“Mr. Gu, you really are persistent indeed.” Xi Xiaye’s calm voice was mixed with a hint of displeased mockery.

“Since you wouldn’t say yes to me, I was forced to do this, Miss Xi.” Gu Qiwu did not seem awkward either. He was at ease as he laughed.

Xi Xiaye did not quite understand this man before her. how could he seem so calm at such a time? She was truly amazed by this man.

Xi Xiaye squinted at him, then turned around to walk towards the roadside as a faint curve flashed on Gu Qiwu’s lips and he gladly walked after her.

She had just walked across the road and along that pebble path until a manmade lake beside the Grand Waves Villa area when she stopped. Gu Qiwu had caught up with her while Ah Quan and the rest stood behind vigilantly.

“I’ve got nothing much to say to you, Mr. Gu. I’m afraid you’ve come looking for the wrong person.”

On that cold night, Xi Xiaye was hostile too, and you could hear her disdain in her voice when she said this. She did not look at Gu Qiwu either.

Upon hearing that, Gu Qiwu only smiled. He looked at Xi Xiaye through narrowed eyes and smiled to say, “Miss Xi, are you still holding a grudge about what happened from before?”

His tone was certain, and it was because of that that Xi Xiaye hated the way he was asking a question that he already knew the answer to, but when she remembered her conversation with Mu Lingshi from before, she calmed the uneasiness in her down.

“Since you already know, are you trying to play old tricks again?”

When Xi Xiaye remembered the scene when she was first blocked at this tunnel, she could not help but feel irritated. She hated the way people kept using her to threaten Mu Yuchen. If it were not for her, Mu Yuchen might have been living more freely and easily right now.

“Don’t worry, Miss Xi. I’m willing to apologize to you for my previous rudeness, but this time, the reason I want to see you isn’t to give you or Mu Yuchen advice. Rest assured about that.” Gu Qiwu’s low voice was heard, but when she heard him, she only thought he seemed sulky.

“This time, it’s because of Lingshi.”

“Because of Lingshi?” Disdain flashed in the corner of her lips. “I don’t remember how you’re related to Lingshi, Mr. Gu. Are you sure you’re talking about Lingshi and not Lingsha?”

Gu Qiwu could obviously hear the sarcasm in Xi Xiaye’s tone. His expression froze, but after that, he only chuckled. “Why would you say that? You don’t have to provoke me. Now, everyone knows about me and Zixi. Mu Lingshi is my daughter with Zixi. There’s no doubt about that. No matter what, she still has to call me her father.”

It was the first time that Gu Qiwu was being so certain in acknowledging Mu Lingshi’s identity in front of someone else.

“Even though I’m not Lingshi, I still have to let you know. Please don’t insult the term ‘father’. At Gu Lingsha’s wedding, did you even act like it? These past 30 years, what have you done for her?” Xi Xiaye’s tone was filled with sharpness and unhappiness. Then, her eyes could not help but flicker with a chill as she turned and her eyes fixed on Gu Qiwu’s.

You could not read any emotions in those jet black eyes of hers. Xi Xiaye seemed to be able to catch a hint of struggle. She wanted to say something more, but she heard Gu Qiwu sigh softly. He said in a heavy voice, “I don’t deny all of these, and I don’t want to talk about my reasons. You’re all not me, so you wouldn’t know about it.”

“Since you think that way, you shouldn’t have come to look for me today,” she replied coldly.

“It’s not like everything will be perfect once I acknowledge Lingshi as my daughter. Otherwise, the incident with Elder Madam Mu wouldn’t have happened. You can put all the blame on me, and I will admit it. I’m still trying hard to make it up to Lingshi. That’s why I’ve come to you, hoping you can persuade Lingshi and tell her not to resent me so much. After all, in the end, some things can’t be erased. She’s my daughter and I’ve never thought of treating her any less.”

“Enough. What’s your so-called compensation? To be the Gu family’s second heiress? Or your Hui Gui Corporation? Do you think that Lingshi would care about these things?” Xi Xiaye immediately felt angry.

Gu Qiwu just smiled nonchalantly. “Whether or not she cares is not up to you. You don’t care, and Mu Yuchen and the rest might not. It’s not news that they want to kill off the Hui Gu Corporation. You know that I had another son, but now I’m only left with two daughters, so I’d have to leave these things to them. I can understand how Mu Yuchen feels. I want to make it up to Lingshi as well. As long as Mu Yuchen’s willing to collaborate with me and get Lingshi to acknowledge me as her father, I promise that she will be treated well.”

“Mr. Gu, I’m afraid you’ve come to the wrong person. You should tell these things to them, and not me.”

Indeed as Mu Lingshi had guessed, Gu Qiwu had looked for her to help lobby for him.

However, when Xi Xiaye said that, he felt a wave of helplessness in his heart. If he could have said all these things to Mu Yuchen, he would not need to look for Xi Xiaye.

“Actually, you don’t need to respond to me. Just like the last time, pass on this message to Mu Yuchen. Who knows? We might be on the same side in the future. He’s planning his every move so carefully, so I’m sure he’s got plans in mind, doesn’t he?”

Especially when it came to Gu Lingsha’s incident, Gu Qiwu did not need to guess and knew the answer right away.

Xi Xiaye remained silent and watched Gu Qiwu’s solemn expression. Her gaze began to shift.

Gu Qiwu’s words were quite interesting. He seemed to justifiably think that all of these incidents were Mu Yuchen’s work.

On the same side?

Who would be their opponent then?

Qi Feng?

Or Doris?

Xi Xiaye did not answer him. She only showed amusement on her lips.

“When’s Mu Yuchen coming back?” Gu Qiwu knew that Mu Yuchen had left City Z. It had been so long, but he was not back yet. This fact alone did not make him relax. He felt uneasy instead!
