Chapter 280 - 282 Sobs, So Ugly! _1
Finding a thousand more in her bank account, she was thrilled, a smile of excitement painted her lips.
Chenxing got out of bed and instantly spotted a brand-new set of home clothes on her bedside. Quickly, she put them on. Her body felt somewhat weak and uncomfortable, instead of having a shower, she left the bed to grab Gu Shaocheng’s notebook that was on the table. She then swiftly crawled back into bed. What was she doing? Surfing the internet!
With newfound courage, she bought some more shares and sold one.
Half an hour later, she closed the laptop, returned it to its original spot, and happily went back to sleep. She even had a sweet dream in which the stock she purchased rose rapidly. She made a lot of money and even bought Gu Shaocheng a new set of home clothes with the money she earned.
Huh? Why would she dream about buying him clothes?
What a mystery!
At this time, guests were gradually leaving the Gu Family’s residence, each taking their trophies and gifts, bidding goodbye to Gu Shaocheng who was standing at the entrance.
After all the guests had left, the mansion was quickly reorganized. In 72 hours, preparations would be underway for the second banquet.
The guests to arrive were the managers of all of the Gu families’ industries. Those who only appeared on financial television programs and magazines, the highest-ranking executives of various groups: Presidents, CEOs, Executive officers, Factory directors, General managers... all gathered from around the globe.
And Gu Shaocheng would take this opportunity to audit their accounts.
Of course, he wouldn’t personally examine each and every entry. With so many assets and subsidiaries under the Gu family, if he scrutinized everything himself, it would take years. The auditing would be conducted by hired American auditors, lawyers, the United States Securities and Exchange Commission, the Banking Supervision and Administration Committee, and independent third-party audit teams... Those with no issues found would continue to be employed; those with discrepancies discovered would wish they hadn’t been.
So, the guests at the second banquet, unlike those at the first, would be on edge; attending the banquet while anxiously hoping that nothing incriminating about their groups would be exposed.

Day and night passed, another day was gone.
She woke up to the pitch-black sky outside the window. Glancing at the time on her cellphone, it was 8:45 a.m.
"Ah........."
Chenxing suddenly screamed out loud, apparently startled by the sight of extensive red rashes all over her body. Far worse than before she went to sleep, they were so severe that she looked as if she had been disfigured. She was lying on her side, biting her lips hard.
Sobs, how hideous she looked!
Through her phone screen, she could see her face and neck covered with red rashes, not to mention other parts of her body.
She was unsure when someone had trimmed her long nails, but each of her fingers was now wrapped in white gauze. Was it to prevent her from scratching her skin?
Who did this?
Just then, she heard footsteps and the sound of the door opening from outside.
In a rush, she quickly covered her face with the blanket, resolutely refusing to let anyone see her ghastly appearance.
