Chapter 253: Making a Will
Thinking of what he had said to him last night, he realized that women were all troublesome, but Yanxia was the best. Even if this woman entered the Gu family, he couldn't let her be like Li Meng, who later cheated on him. He had to keep her in check. The more a woman gained, the greater her ambition became. Thinking of the Gu family's wealth, his eyes darkened.
After he got up, he didn't go anywhere. Instead, he went to a law firm and found an old friend of his who was a lawyer there. He wanted to make a will in advance so that if anything happened to him or something unforeseen, his estate would not fall into the hands of Li Meng and her two daughters.
After consulting with his friend Chen Lihai, Gu Cheng made a will shortly afterward. He made two copies of the will and had them notarized; he kept one copy for himself and gave the other to Chen Lihai.
"Old Gu, you're making a will so early. Will your family agree to it?" The two were very familiar with each other, and Chen Lihai was his private lawyer, so he dared to say many things.
“She’s not much better. She’s a mess outside, and both of our daughters have been led astray. I was going to divorce her, and she wanted half of the family property. Of course, that’s how it is legally in divorce cases, but when I think about how she’s been acting out of line, I can’t stand it. And I’ll be divorcing her soon. I’m not afraid of her after the divorce, but I’m afraid that if I’m gone one day, her two daughters will try to take the Gu family’s assets.” Gu Cheng said worriedly, “Life is coming to an end so quickly. Sometimes I really feel a little unwilling to accept it.”
"What are you unhappy about? You managed to climb to this position. It's just that your family is a bit of a mess. But Yun Shu is doing quite well. She married... Oh right! Is her name Xiao Mingkun? This guy is very popular in Nancheng right now. His new apartment buildings were snapped up as soon as they opened. I was originally thinking of asking you to put in a good word for me to save one."
"Don't laugh at me, how could I possibly talk to him? That man is really powerful now. He's always sarcastic when I talk to him, and he stands up for Yun Shu, but he's actually very good to her. She's waited for three years, and she's completely alone, without a single woman in her life. He's a real oddity among the rich." Gu Cheng said this, somewhat satisfied with Xiao Mingkun. He wouldn't have to worry about Yun Shu anymore.
“That’s right. There were rumors before that he was gay and other outrageous things. Last time I went to the hospital, Yun Shu was already an attending physician. Among the children of the rich second generation, Yun Shu is already quite good. It’s just that Yun Huan and Yun Le are both your daughters, so why is there such a big difference?” Chen Lihai sighed. It is said that a dragon has nine sons, each different. The difference between Yun Huan and Yun Le and Yun Shu is extraordinary.
“It’s all Li Meng’s fault. She spoiled them rotten since they were little. Yun Le is a little better, but you know Yun Huan, she’s in the police station now. But this time I don’t want to get involved anymore. Let her fend for herself.” Gu Cheng decided. That kind of family and children made him despair, and he didn’t have the energy to try to salvage the situation.
"Yun Huan's matter has indeed caused a great stir, but fortunately the reports of her pushing people have stopped online. I can't believe that child has become like this. It's said that she even harmed Yun Shu. Old Gu! Don't blame me for not warning you. If this continues, Yun Huan might be sentenced to an unclear case. I really don't want her to go to jail."
"It's time to teach her a lesson. Li Meng can't protect her forever. It's better that she's in jail, so she won't be dragged down by him."
Since Gu Cheng had already said that, Chen Lihai couldn't say anything more. If his own father didn't care, why should he, an outsider, worry about it? Besides, Yun Huan was indeed at fault, and it was quite serious, so he didn't want to say anything more. Lawyers are all very shrewd people; he knew exactly what to say and when to say it.
Chen Lihai helped Gu Cheng draft his will, and Gu Cheng treated him to lunch at noon.
Li Meng from the Gu family made many phone calls this morning, but still no one was willing to help her. These past two days, everyone in the compound has known that something bad has happened to the Gu family.
At the Sheng family home, Xie Huixin and her family were having dinner.
"Old Sheng, if Li Meng asks you for help, don't help her. Gu Cheng doesn't even care about his own affairs, so you should stay out of it too."
“She came to me yesterday, and I didn’t refuse her outright. I just said I would consider it. Now that you’re saying that even Lao Gu isn’t going to help, then I really can’t help her.” Huai Nan’s father now realized that Gu Cheng didn’t want to help Li Meng. No wonder Li Meng wanted to ask him for help.
Xie Huixin immediately became displeased upon hearing this and angrily said, "Why even consider it? Just refuse directly. Why worry about saving face for the other party? That woman raised two children like that, one a murderer and the other drugged someone to fake a pregnancy. They're both awful. And to make matters worse, there are three of them in one family. It's just that Yun Shu..."
"Mom, can we not talk about those things?" Huainan felt a chill run down his spine as soon as he heard Yunle's voice.
"Okay, Mom won't talk about that anymore. By the way, Nan Nan, when are you going to go on a blind date? You're so old now, Mom is really worried if you don't go on one soon!"
"Mom, I already have a woman I like."
"Wasn't Yun Shu already dead?"
"Ashu is alive and well. She miraculously survived falling into the sea back then. She came back and even gave birth to a son for Xiao Mingkun, named Beibei. We just celebrated the little guy's birthday a few days ago, and he's three years old now!"
"She didn't die, and she even gave birth to a son for that man. Yun Shu is indeed a lucky girl. It's a pity that she would have married you back then. Old Sheng, our grandson would be three years old by now."
"Mom, why are you bringing this up again? Luckily, Ashu didn't marry me back then, otherwise she wouldn't have such a lovely child like Beibei. Besides, I've always thought of Ashu as a little sister!"
"If you're the younger sister, and you say you have a woman you like, could it be someone else?"
"She's a friend of Ashu's, named Xiao Yiyi. But I rejected her. I'm not good enough for her. Besides, she was forced to go on blind dates by her family recently, and she already has a girlfriend."
Upon hearing this, Xie Huixin immediately felt that there was hope; her son didn't like anyone else, but liked someone else's daughter.
"Nan Nan, Xiao Yiyi, is she... a daughter of the Xiao family? She likes you too, that's easy. What's there to be afraid of if you have a boyfriend? It's only been a few days. Mom will propose marriage to her family right away."
“I don’t want a mother. The Xiao family is not an ordinary family. I’ve only been divorced for a short time. My health… I don’t want to hurt Yiyi. That’s why I broke up with Yiyi. She’s great in every way. It’s a pity she’s not good enough for me.”
"How can you say that? Even Xiao's mother doesn't know. How can she compare to our Sheng family? Besides, everyone knows what happened between you and Yunle. She's Yunshu's friend, so she must know a lot about you and doesn't mind you. Mom is determined to marry a girl like that. If she can be Yunshu's good friend, she must be excellent. She's as ladylike and elegant as Yunshu."
