Chapter 998: Escorted Back To The Capital! Gu Yin Is Rendered Useless!
On the other end of the phone, Old Master Gu paused for a while when he heard Gu Yin’s voice, as if he was rather surprised that Gu Yin was the one who picked up.
But the fact that Gu Yin could get hold of Gu Mang’s phone meant that things were not as troublesome as he had thought.
The words that Old Master Gu had originally prepared to scold Gu Mang with were of no use now, so his tone went calmer. He asked, “When will you return?”
The way he asked sounded as if Gu Mang had invited Gu Yin to the small villa to play instead of capturing her.
Gu Yin glanced at Lu Yi, who was behind her, and her eyes were cold and icy. She answered softly, “Sis won’t let me go.”
Upon hearing this, Old Master Gu went silent for a few seconds before he spoke with a cold and serious voice. “Give the phone to Gu Mang.”
Gu Yin looked at Gu Mang and asked suddenly, “Grandpa, Sis said that I am not a member of the Gu family. What does she mean?”
At this time, Elder Gu had already returned, so he had already told Old Master Gu whatever Gu Mang said.
Gu Yin asked at such a time on purpose as she wanted to prove her identity.
When Lu Yi and the others heard this statement at the moment, they were all rather shocked.
They always thought that Gu Mang had only shown Gu Yin so much mercy because of their blood relations.
Three seconds after Gu Yin finished speaking, there was no sound from the phone on the table at all.
Her heart was originally calm, but now she began to panic again.
No way, it cannot be…
She dug her nails into her flesh slowly but there were no changes in her expression.
Gu Mang propped her face up with her hand casually and smirked in a way that kind of looked like a smile. She spoke in a slow tone, “Grandpa, tell her. What did I mean?”
This was the first time Gu Mang had called him ‘Grandpa’. She said it in such a funny and draggy tone that it made one’s hair stand on end.
On the other end, Old Master Gu’s face was sinister and cold. He answered in a solemn tone, “When I say that Gu Yin is the Second Miss of the Gu family, she is the Second Miss of the Gu family.”
Gu Yin felt that this statement sounded funny, but she couldn’t make out what was strange about it.
But from Old Master Gu’s attitude, he sounded like he wanted to save her. That made her calm down again.
As long as she was the Second Miss of the Gu family, Gu Mang would not mess with her.
Gu Mang chuckled and her eyes looked evil. “What you say doesn’t count, what I say does.”
Old Master Gu tightened his grip around the armrest of the sofa and asked, “What do you want?!”
“You’re keeping Gu Yin around so that she’d be of use when I die, huh?” When Gu Mang spoke, she glared at Gu Yin with her dark eyes. “Now you can’t do that anymore.”
“Gu Mang…!”
The girl hung up.
She tapped on the screen and logged into the social networking site of Jijing Island for the first time.
The secretarial department had long ago transferred the director’s personal account to her since she took her seat.
There was just an extremely simple introduction below the black profile picture.
Gu Mang.
Head of the Council of Jijing Island.
Not many people followed this account at the moment but all of the media accounts on Jijing Island, regardless of their influence, had followed it.
This was the official platform for the Head of the Council to speak her mind. Every word and move she made attracted the attention of the people and the media.
Gu Mang had just taken over and she had not made any posts yet.
Gu Mang watched her type on her phone and her pupils shrank. “Gu Mang, what exactly are you up to?”
When Gu Mang was done typing, she attached a photo to the post and uploaded it. Then, she threw the phone in front of Gu Yin.
Gu Yin’s gaze landed on the phone screen and when she saw the content of the post, her expression changed drastically.
…
At the other side.
Gu Mang had just hung up on Old Master Gu. Old Master Gu’s face was full of murderous intent and he made a call to the Head Elder.
Once the line was through, he said solemnly, “Gu Mang got hold of Gu Yin. Get the Security Bureau to bring her out. Gu Mang has no right to capture anyone.”
Head Elder was sitting in the office and looking at the computer screen. It was Gu Mang’s first post on the social media platform, “You don’t have to bring her back, it’s pointless even if you do.”
Old Master Gu was stunned. “What do you mean?”
The Head Elder’s eyes were cold. “See for yourself.”
Old Master Gu hung up and he had not even gone to have a look.
Elder Gu ran over in a panic with his phone. “Master, Young Lady uploaded the blood test report of Second Miss on the Internet, claiming that she’s not from the Gu family. She also called for an order to deport her from Jijing Island. Also, she has already contacted the capital! She told them that Second Miss had attacked her at her place of residence and she had to be sent back to the capital to be sentenced!”
Since she was not from Jijing Island, she could not be sentenced here and she had to be sent back to where she was from.
Old Master Gu’s eyes trembled. He snatched the phone from him and stared at the screen.
He watched as Gu Mang’s follower count and the share count of her first post increased rapidly.
No matter where it was, gossip within aristocratic families was always a topic that everyone found interesting.
The news about Gu Yin not being Gu family’s Second Miss spread like wildfire across Jijing Island.
Old Master Gu tightened his hand around the phone so hard that it almost broke.
Gu Yin’s useless now… Completely useless…
Ever since Gu Mang returned, all of his plans were ruined!
Old Master Gu clenched his fists tighter and he smashed them on the sofa’s armrest fiercely.
…
At the interrogation room.
Gu Mang got up and placed both hands on the table as she leaned close to Gu Yin, who was losing her wits.
She tapped twice on her phone and said in a light tone, “No one will save you now.”
Gu Yin’s eyelashes trembled. There was not a trace of redness on her face, it was all pale.
She knew better than anyone else that if she hadn’t messed with Gu Si today, Gu Mang wouldn’t care about her at all.
She could just be the Gu family’s Second Miss peacefully.
If Old Master Gu wanted to use her, she could totally wait for it. She could wait for them to get rid of Gu Mang first.
But it was too late to say anything now…
She had lost everything…
Gu Mang stood up straight and turned to Lu Chengzhou. “Send her back to the capital. Charge her with kidnapping.”
The man hummed in acknowledgment.
Gu Yin slumped into her chair and her eyes were dead.
Lu Chengzhou had absolute power in the capital. What was awaiting her was definitely nothing nice.
Gu Mang turned to leave. Just as she pulled the door open…
“The Head Elder and the Leng family won’t let you off even without me.” Gu Yin looked at her back with gloomy eyes. “Gu Mang, I’ll be waiting.”
Jijing Island was in a chaotic state at the moment. Carelessness could end one’s life.
Gu Mang would only end up worse than her.
Lu Chengzhou turned a little sideways and his cold gaze fell on Gu Yin. “You’ve only seen so much. Have you forgotten who you are? Are you trying to compare yourself to Gu Mang?”
When the man spoke, a bone-chilling coldness rushed through the entire interrogation room. It was filled with murderous intent.
Gu Mang turned around too. She crossed her arms and squinted.
In Gu Yin’s eyes, she looked high up in the air.
She bit her lip and the jealousy in her grew crazily. “I’ll wait and see how long she can stay up there.”
Lu Chengzhou smirked. He looked a little ruthless. “With me around, she’ll stay there forever.”
…
The group walked out of the interrogation room, and as soon as they reached the top of the stairs, they ran into Jiang Sui, Gu Si and Yu Mufeng who had just woken up.
Gu Si’s face was stern, cold and heavy, “Sis, where’s that idiot, Gu Yin?”
When he thought about how he messed up and fell into the hands of Gu Yin, the anger in his chest rose up to his head.
Gu Mang pointed her chin in the direction of the interrogation room.
Gu Si looked over and his eyes were cold. “Sis, I’m not going to let her off this time.”
