The ex-wife is rebellious, which makes the CEO feel troubled

The banquet was full of people drinking and drinking, and it was very lively.

Several important entrepreneurs in S City toasted and chatted happily, under the guise of friendly exchanges, but in fact they secretly inquired about each other's strength.

There was an undercurrent surging on this side, while on the other side, Ning Xi was taken to an empty room to rest by the hostess. She happened to be a little hungry, so she picked up the snacks on the table and ate a few pieces, then lay down on the soft sofa bed and fell asleep vaguely.

After an unknown amount of time, Ning Xi was awakened by the chatter of several staff members.

"Hey, did you see Mr. Gu and Miss Shen just now?"

"I saw it. Who in S City doesn't know Mr. Gu? And Miss Shen, she is so beautiful that even a blind person would have to open his eyes to look at her more."

"I heard that they were a couple when they were students, and they agreed to get married after graduation. It's like romance novels come true to reality. I'm so jealous."

"No, how did I hear that Mr. Gu was forced to marry an unattractive wild girl? Miss Shen was sad and left for a foreign country. It was only now that the wild girl was kicked out of the Gu family, and Mr. Gu took Bai back. Moonlight, the two get back together."

"Ah? Is there such a thing? I would say that woman is really shameless, breaking up such a loving couple."

"Who says it's not the case? So what if she rushes to marry Mr. Gu? Mr. Gu doesn't even look at her, he only loves Miss Shen wholeheartedly."

Ning Xi pursed her lips tightly as she listened to the sarcastic words of several staff members outside the room, feeling extremely heartbroken.

She had always known that there was someone hidden in Gu Huaijing's heart, but she always deceived herself, telling herself that as long as she could stay by his side, she would one day be able to walk into his heart.

But when outsiders exposed her fantasy and Gu Huaijing divorced her without mercy, she realized how wrong she was.

Perhaps, he should not have insisted on marrying into the Gu family in the first place, nor should he have coveted someone who was not his own.

Ning Xi thought about it, her nose felt sour, and she silently sat on the sofa wiping tears.

When Wen Mochen came back from his business, he saw his niece looking aggrieved and wiping away her tears.

"Xixi, who bullied you? Why are you crying?"

Hearing her uncle's gentle inquiry, Ning Xi couldn't hold back her tears. She threw herself into her uncle's arms and spoke out all the bitterness of her secret love and the grievances of lost love over the years.

"So, Gu Huaijing is your ex-husband, and he just pretended not to know you?" Wen Mochen's face was as dark as water, and he patted Ning Xi on the shoulder and said coldly: "I'm going to terminate the contract right now, let's go The Ning family will not cooperate with the scum who bullies Xixi!"

"No!" Ning Xi interrupted him urgently, "Don't affect the company's business because of me."

Seeing Ning Xi like this, Wen Mochen's eyes were full of distress, "Come home with me after we finish negotiating the contract. Let's go to City A and stay away from these troubles. Many relatives miss you very much, especially your parents."

As Wen Mochen said this, he suddenly felt an unbearable pain in his abdomen. He turned his back. He didn't want to make Ning Xi worry, but he was keenly aware of it by Ning Xi in his arms.

"Uncle, what's wrong with you?!" She grabbed her uncle's wrist and felt the pulse. She frowned even more as she listened to the weak pulse.

"You always have abdominal pain like this, but you can't find the cause when you go to the hospital, right?"

"Yes." Wen Mochen nodded slightly, "I've had countless large and small examinations, but every time the doctor said I didn't have any disease. Over time, it became an old problem."

"Although my medical skills are not as good as grandpa's, I will definitely cure you." Ning Xi pressed her fingers on several large acupuncture points on her uncle's body, trying to relieve his pain.

She did not tell Wen Mochen that in fact his symptoms were not a chronic disease, but poison. This poison is extremely difficult to detect, and modern medicine cannot detect any clues at all. If my uncle hadn't started to suffer from abdominal pain, he might not have been discovered to have been poisoned until he died.

Ning Xi pretended to inquire about her uncle's arrangements for the past few days, but in fact, she secretly noted down the suspicious things.

Since arriving in S city, someone seems to be targeting Wen Mochen everywhere. Even the last car accident was not an accident. At that time, my uncle had just returned from a construction site inspection. He suddenly suffered from unbearable abdominal pain on the road and the car rolled over. Coincidentally, the brakes seemed to have failed that day...

Who is the one? Why target your uncle like this?

Ning Xi remembered that she was still in the divorce cooling-off period, so she made up her mind to wait until she got the divorce certificate before leaving S city. First, she would find the murderer who murdered her uncle and help her uncle detoxify.

The top priority was to boil some medicine for my uncle to take to relieve his abdominal pain.

However, this poison is difficult to resolve, and Yusu Zi must be used as medicine to cure it completely. Yu Suzi is hard to find, so where can she find suitable medicinal materials in such a short period of time?

Suddenly, an idea flashed in her mind, and she remembered that five years ago, before she married into the Gu family, she had heard news reports that Gu Huaijing had spent huge sums of money to buy three jade perilla plants at the auction, setting a new record. The highest transaction record that night, the Gu family's astonishing financial resources were widely publicized by major media. Even Ning Xi, who never watches TV, knew about it.

Therefore, after the banquet, Ning Xi took advantage of the fact that no one was around and secretly stopped Gu Huaijing who was about to get in the car and leave.

"Mr. Gu." She lowered her head and spoke sincerely, "I offended you just now. Please forgive me for my mistakes. I really have something to ask of you. I... I want your hand." In exchange for Yu Suzi, I will return the apartment in the city center to you."

Ning Xi's capricious appearance made Gu Huaijing a little unhappy. His face was cold and silent, and his deep eyes were filled with ice.

Seeing him like this, Ning Xi quickly explained: "I know Yusuzi is very valuable. I can buy it for more money. It doesn't matter how much I want, as long as I can get the medicinal materials."

"Ning Xi." Gu Huaijing interrupted her in a deep voice, "Exchanging the apartment for Yu Suzi is indeed a good deal. I can agree to your request."

Ning Xi was about to breathe a sigh of relief when she heard Gu Huaijing continue: "What about next time? Do you want to exchange for cars, jewelry, or stocks? I'm very busy and don't have time to play hard-to-get games with you."

Gu Huaijing's eyes were extremely dark, and when he stared at people with an expressionless face, he always gave people an invisible sense of oppression.

Ning Xi was stunned for a moment, looking into Gu Huaijing's dark eyes, and was about to explain, but she saw Shen Yunyan in the car lowering the window and said to Gu Huaijing: "Huaijing, why aren't you leaving yet? "

Gu Huaijing turned around and got into the car without mercy, and drove away, leaving Ning Xi alone at the foot of the steps...
