How did the Fang family manage their servants? How could such a nice girl be so frightened by such a trivial matter?
"Don't worry, don't be nervous. I'm just looking for this thing. Once I find it, I won't trouble you again."
Gu Mo explained gently and the servant breathed a sigh of relief, and then added as if he remembered something: "By the way, madam, can you bring the second lady's things with you?"
"Second Miss? You mean Fang Yuru?"
The servant nodded repeatedly, "Yes, I was cleaning Mr. Fang's study before. I happened to be wiping the glass at the corner of the bathroom. In a blink of an eye, I saw the second lady entering Mr. Fang's study. After she left, I came out to clean and found A brooch fell under the table. I thought it must be quite valuable, so I told the butler about it. But later, maybe the butler forgot about it because there were so many things going on. The thing has always been placed with the broken pieces of your jade bracelet. Together."
Gu Mo instantly felt something was wrong.
"Tell me about what day it is?"
The servant raised his head and made a thinking gesture, "Well, it was almost a few days before I picked up the jade fragments. Oh! I remembered that the eldest lady also came to the villa that day!"
Gu Mo was secretly happy in his heart. That's right, it seems to be exactly what she thought!
Fang Yuru and Chen Xue came intentionally that day.
First, Chen Xue found an excuse to drag Fang Zhixu away in the living room and sent her away at the same time. Later, Fang Yuru quarreled with her and took the opportunity to go to the study on the second floor to steal quotation information!
It was a perfect co-ordination, but in the end, she took the blame.
"Madam, did I say something wrong?"
Perhaps because Gu Mo didn't speak for a long time, the servant asked Gu Mo timidly.
"Ah, I was thinking about something just now. By the way, let me ask you again, did you see clearly what Fang Yu...that is, the second young lady, was doing in the study?"
Suddenly he thought for a few seconds and slowly said, "I just remember that she seemed to have picked up some file on the table, and I heard the sound of paper being turned over."
"Okay, if the housekeeper asks about this later, just tell the truth like you did today."
"Mr. Fang, let me tell you that the second lady made a big fuss because of the missing brooch, but don't worry, I will explain it to you."
The servant nodded in panic, "Okay, okay, if the housekeeper asks, I will tell the truth. Thank you, madam."
Gu Mo patted his shoulder comfortingly, "You must tell me exactly what you told me today."
"Madam, don't worry, I won't lie!"
After the servant left, Gu Mo looked at the divorce agreement in his hand and had a plan in mind.
Just at this moment, Fang Zhixu entered the villa, and the sound of the door closing reminded her.
He stood up and walked out of the room, facing each other face to face. The two looked at each other, each with their own thoughts, and there was a sense of tension in the air.
"I want to go to the old house to visit the old lady tomorrow. Do you want to come with me?"
This was the first time in so many days that Gu Mo took the initiative to talk to him. He said without much hesitation, "Okay."
After getting the reply, he immediately turned back to the room, closed the door with a bang, and the living room returned to the silence as before, as if what just happened had not happened.
Only a heavy sigh was heard in the quiet air.
The next day, Gu Mo and Fang Zhixu came to the old house. Before they even entered the door, they heard Fang Yuru making a noisy sound inside.
"Sister-in-law, are you ready to come and confess your crime early in the morning?"
Gu Mo changed his shoes and ignored Fang Yuru completely, and walked straight to the living room of the old house. His eyes darkened when he saw the old lady sitting there drinking tea.
The old lady took off her glasses and waved to Gu Mo kindly, "Momo is here, how is your mother's health lately? I wanted to call you and ask you a few days ago."
"I'm recovering very well now. I'm sorry for your concern."
Fang Zhixu followed and sat next to Gu Mo. Chen Xue also heard the sound and came out from the kitchen with a plate of fruit, "Oh, Momo is here. It's been a long time."
Gu Mo smiled politely at Chen Xue and stopped talking nonsense when he saw that everyone who was supposed to come had already arrived.
"Old madam, I came here today to tell you something important."
Fang Zhixu sat next to him, his eyes calm and silent, he just frowned slightly.
The old lady took a sip of hot tea and said, "What's wrong? Is there something going on at home? Or is there something going on in the hospital?"
Gu Mo shook his head, "None of them."
"I came here today to tell the old lady that I will divorce Fang Zhixu in a few days. I would like to thank the Fang family for their care over the past few years."
These words were like a thunderclap, shaking the nerves of everyone present, and everyone had different expressions.
Fang Zhixu took the lead and said, "If this is what you want to talk about today, then you can shut up and come back with me."
Without any hesitation, he grabbed Gu Mo's wrist and prepared to pull her out. Gu Mo struggled to break away and looked into Fang Zhixu's eyes fiercely, "I have no intention of going back when I come out today!"
Fang Yuru and Chen Xue looked at each other casually, with smiles on their faces as if they had succeeded.
Chen Xue smiled and said nothing while holding a teacup and sipping it gently. She looked at Fang Yuru again through the white smoke on the teacup, indicating her next plan.
The old lady didn't expect Gu Mo to say this at all. It took a long time to come back to her senses and said, "Momo, have you been wronged in any way? You might as well tell me and I will make the decision for you!"
"We'd better not mention the divorce now or it will hurt our feelings. After all, we are a family. Let's resolve any misunderstandings first."
Gu Mo straightened his clothes and sat back on the sofa, "Originally this was just a matter between me and Fang Zhixu, but it concerns the Fang family, so I still want to make it clear in front of you at my old house."
Fang Yuru rolled her eyes and immediately started to get angry, "Sister-in-law, I think you think that the Fang family will not be as good as before because of Hongshan's project, so you want to divorce with grandma's property, and then immediately fall into the arms of your old lover Xie Xun." .”
"You left such a mess to the Fang family and just want to walk away? This is such a good plan!"
Chen Xue looked surprised, "What? Momo you, you and Xie Xun?"
Suddenly there was a trace of anger on his face, "How could you do this? After you were released from prison, our Fang family treated you as our own as before and treated you so well, how could you do such a thing?"
The old lady immediately pointed at Fang Yuru and Chen Xue with a cold face, "What are you two talking about? Why are Gu Mo and the Xie family involved again? Is there any evidence?"
Fang Yuru said provocatively to Gu Mo, "Grandma, for this Hongshan project, someone leaked the quotation to the Xie family in advance, so that the project finally fell into the hands of the Xie family. As a result, our Fang family will have to Billions of dollars were lost.”
"Besides Gu Mo, who else can get a quote so easily and has an interest in the Xie family?"
The old lady discerned what Fang Ruru had just said and looked at Gu Mo in disbelief, "Momo, do you want to explain this?"
Gu Mo was calm and composed, as if there were no emotional fluctuations in Fang Yuru's accusation, "Old madam, this is the grievance I want to tell you. The Hongshan project has nothing to do with me, and I did not leak it to the Xie family."
"But I know who leaked it."
Gu Mo smiled coldly at Fang Yuru, like a hunter hiding in the dark facing his prey. Fang Yuru trembled unconsciously and quickly turned her face away.
"That day, sister Yuru and the eldest lady came to the Fang family villa together. The eldest lady found a reason to separate me and sister Yuru to drag Fang Zhixu away. Sister Yuru used this to quarrel with me and left alone. At this point she went upstairs to the study to get the quotation.”
"What nonsense are you talking about? It's so bloody mouthful. You just want to excuse yourself!"
Fang Yuru was like a cat whose tail was stepped on, and her fur suddenly exploded. Chen Xue also helped to speak, "Momo, this is just your guess! You have to speak with evidence, and you are throwing dirty water on Yuru!"
"Then what evidence do you have for saying that I leaked the quotation to the Xie family?"
Gu Mo's words shocked Fang Yuru and Chen Xue so much that they didn't know what to say. Fang Yuru thought for a while and continued to explain, "I have no access to any projects under the Fang family at all. I don't even know what Danmei's boss looks like. Can I leak it to the other party? Are you kidding me?"
"Yes, Yuru was blocked last time when she wanted to enter a store owned by Fang. Not to mention that she had no chance to get in touch with a project as big as Hongshan. Even if she got the quotation, she couldn't send it out. !”
"Old madam, please don't listen to Momo's nonsense. My Yuru will never do such a thing."
Chen Xue was sitting next to the old lady. She reached out and held the old lady's hand, with a look of aggrievedness on her face.
Fang Zhixu seemed to agree with Chen Xue's statement and helped, "Don't talk about things without evidence."
Haha, there was no evidence at all when she was wrongly accused of providing the quotation to the Xie family, but everyone assumed that she was the one who did it and came to question her.
Everyone in the Fang family has double standards.
Gu Mo looked calm and didn't even answer Fang Zhixu's words. The old lady also said the same thing, "Momo, this matter is of great importance. Let's get some evidence."
How come there is no evidence?
She took her phone out of her bag, clicked a few times on the screen, and then spread it out on the coffee table for everyone to see.
"I have a good relationship with Xie Xun, so I asked him to check for me. Who is the person who leaked the quotation to Dan Mei? This is the screenshot sent by that person."
He pointed lightly on the phone with his fingertips, "That's the phone number..."
She raised her head and smiled, scanning everyone's faces, "Do you want to call over now?"
Fang Yuru's face froze and she was a little panicked. Chen Xue lost her proud look just now and seemed a little nervous about the number.
"No need to fight, this is Charlie's."
"What!? It's that mistress again. What does she want to do?"
The old lady leaned on the cane angrily, and the sound frightened Fang Yuru's heart.
Gu Mo curled her lips in satisfaction, "This alone proves that I didn't leak the stuff to the Xie family at all!"
"Not necessarily. What if you and Xia Li collude and harm our Fang family together!"
Fang Yuru snatched the words and Gu Mo lowered his voice with a hint of threat, "Anyone here may join forces with Xia Li, but I will not. Because Xia Li regards me as a thorn in her side, and she will not get any benefits from joining forces with me."
"So, who is joining forces with Xia Li? Sister Yuru, what do you think?"
