Chapter 481: V366: In an instant, Gu Zixuan seemed to have found a last straw to clutch at.
The immense pain seemed to have been dug out from the deepest part of the heart.Trembling, tearing at the muscles, shredding bones.
Feng Chengjin... Why would Brother Yu actually say the name Feng Chengjin?
She thought everything was just her wild speculation, that he approached Zixi as "Light and Shadow" just to genuinely care for her brother, that he didn’t meet her in Rong City for eight years simply because he believed the person she loved was He Qimo and didn’t want to seek her out.
She thought that when they met for the first time after eight years, he said he had moved on just to avoid giving her pressure.
But why?
Gu Zixuan didn’t want to know what had happened between Feng Chengjin and her father.
She only wanted to know, didn’t Feng Chengjin like her?
Why, facing her whom he liked, could he still do such things... why?
Gu Zixuan felt her mind explode for a moment, her shattered heart convulsing.
An eight-year-long relationship, in a fleeting moment everything changed, perhaps it was all just a lie from the beginning.
These three days and nights of near sleepless state painfully pushed Gu Zixuan’s nerves to the brink of collapse...
Gu Zixuan started pacing back and forth in the bedroom.
The headache made her rummage through boxes and cabinets looking for medicine, once she found the sedative pills, intending to orally take them.
Seeing her own lower abdomen, she could only put the pills back into the bottle, then continued pacing in the bedroom with even more headache.
At her feet, Timi who was sleeping in the cat’s nest also opened its eyes, looking quietly at her, seemingly affected by the mood, it didn’t dare to "meow", but moved closer to her feet.
Gu Zixuan wandered in the bedroom; her cracked emotions, and slightly red eye sockets, made every step she took feel as if it weighed a thousand pounds.
Until finally, she stopped.
Looking quietly at the computer.
Inside it... there was still her unfinished investigation on Liang Shiman before she went to Junsheng to explore the possibility of her father’s corruption...
So, in an instant, Gu Zixuan seemed to have found some last straw to clutch at.
Quickly sitting in front of the computer, as she turned it on, she began crazily diving into continuing the work...
Liang Shiman, Liang Shiman...
She didn’t believe all these things were done by Feng Chengjin.
These things must have someone behind them, right?
Yes! So there must be another reason behind all these things! It’s just that Brother Yu mentioned Feng Chengjin right off the bat; Brother Yu must have been referring to something else about Feng Chengjin, it was her overthinking, her oversensitivity, her wrong assumption!
She must find out another truth!
Gu Zixuan, with reddened eyes, began to search incessantly for all information related to Liang Shiman and her father’s business dealings.
Moreover... in front of the inner network of the party and government system...
After hesitating for a moment, Gu Zixuan changed the domain name, doing something she as a high society lady had never done before.
Hack in, investigate!
He Qimo sensed something was wrong at dawn.
Having pondered all night, Yu Yuanshen still felt uneasy. Although normally, he thought Zixuan should lock herself in the bedroom, resting and calming down for a few days.
Perhaps she would cry, feel uncomfortable, but she’d be fine after resting.
However, by morning, discovering that Gu Zixuan’s phone was still off, helplessly, Yu Yuanshen reluctantly dialed He Qimo’s number.
