"Don't leave yet!" Gu Xuehui's mother stopped Mo Li again. Her eyes were filled with fear, and she bravely asked, "Ms. Mo, I know that you have changed your surname back to Mo and have established a relationship with the Chi family. Your net worth is much higher now. But you have no relationship with our Gu family. Why do you take away all the inheritance of our old man?"

Mo Li tilted his head slightly, with an expression that said "What can you do to me?"

Gu Xuesui's mother knew how powerful she was, and she could never offend her, so she gritted her teeth, as if she had made a great determination and forced herself to make a huge concession: "Besides, you don't lack the old man's money... How about this! I won't bother you with the extra money, you just need to return my and Susui's share to us according to the share, and I promise that I will never bother you again in the future!"

After she finished speaking, Mo Li spoke slowly.

"First of all, I must remind you--" Mo Li's smile was vague, but the coldness in his eyes could not be faked: "Mr. Gu is still alive. That is property, not inheritance."

Gu Xuehui's mother's heart sank as she realized that she had said something out of turn the moment she opened her mouth.

"Secondly, what qualifications do you think you have to stand here and negotiate with me?"

Mo Li was particularly disdainful of women like Gu Xuehui's mother, not only because she was shameless and destroyed other people's families, but also because she was so cruel.

It is clear that she has had to rely on the Gu family for survival for so many years, but once her own interests are touched, she can even be so cruel as to kill Mr. Gu, who has always been very caring towards her.

The saying "bitches are heartless" is fully reflected in her.

Compared to her, even the brainless Gu Xuesui looks innocent and cute.

Gu Xuehui's mother swayed and her face turned paler.

She had not had much contact with Mo Li over the years, save for a few encounters at banquets. Before that, they were not close friends, let alone any conflicts of interest, so she didn't know where the other party's hostility towards her came from.

She thought of the time when Mr. Gu took Mo Li to the tea room for a secret talk, and the way he warned her with a frown while sitting in a wheelchair, and she couldn't help but shudder, wondering if her secret drugging of the old man had been exposed.

Mo Li saw through her guilt and fear at a glance, but she didn't intend to point it out, leaving her to worry about it herself.

"That's all I have to say, so you can do what you want."

After saying that, Mo Li no longer paid attention to the two of them and followed his classmates to the teaching building.

……

After the college entrance examination, everyone felt relieved. The atmosphere in the class became more lively. Everyone was chatting and laughing in the classroom. Some of them agreed to go on a graduation trip together, and some said that they would apply to the same university after getting their results.

After receiving their diplomas, everyone worked together under the guidance of their homeroom teacher to do a final cleanup of the classroom that had helped them through the most difficult time of their senior year.

Ever since leaving the Chu family, Mo Li has lived a life of ease at home. Even the occasional simple housework is almost always done by Chi Cunxu.

However, she did not bring the manners of a rich girl to school. Even though she was wearing Valentino haute couture clothes, she just casually tied an apron around her body and worked tirelessly with her classmates to fetch water and wipe tables and windows.

The classmate who was cleaning the windows pointed at the school gate and asked her, "Lili, look! Those two mother and daughter are still waiting at the school gate! Are they trying to cause trouble for you? Do you want to ask the school police to drive them away?"

Mo Li looked in the direction pointed by his classmate, and sure enough, he saw the two figures at the school gate. Gu Xuehui's mother seemed to be scolding her daughter.

She narrowed her eyes slightly. Gu Xuehui has always been proud and would never ask for trouble like this. She thought it must be her mother who was almost desperate because of gambling debts. If they didn't get the money today, they would not leave easily.

"Campus police?" Mo Li seemed to be thinking: "I don't think the campus police can do anything to them..."

I'm afraid there must be someone else who can take them away.

She was really fed up with this annoying mother and daughter, and didn't want to be haunted by them just for that little bit of money from Mr. Gu.

It would be fine to chase her to school, since she had already graduated. But the school was not far from Yuehu Bay, and if they knew where she lived, it would really disturb her and Chi Cunxu's peace.

Mo Li already had an idea in mind. She slowly wiped the window in front of her until there was no dust on it. Then she put the rag in her hand back into the bucket: "I'm going to the bathroom and will be back soon."

……

When Mrs. Gu received the strange phone call, she was busy looking for trouble with her husband.

Gu Xuehui's true identity was exposed, and Mrs. Gu finally regained her senses after being furious, and began to try to recover her losses.

The trust between the couple was completely broken, but divorce was definitely out of the question, at least not now. Both Gu Kai and she knew that divorce was definitely the worst option at this time.

However, Mrs. Gu was smart for once. She recalled how generous Gu Kai had been to Gu Xuehui and her daughter in the past, the countless times he had generously donated various valuable gifts to Gu Xuehui, the huge red envelopes during festivals, and the more than 60 million yuan he had casually paid for Gu Xuehui last time... She finally began to carefully check the whereabouts of all Gu Kai's property for the first time.

Do not check, I don’t know, I’m scared.

Over the years, Gu Kai had indeed been keeping an affair with Gu Xuehui's mother without telling her. This could be seen from the fact that he had been secretly transferring money to her every now and then in the past few years. In recent years, he probably thought that she was too young and old, so he stopped transferring money, but he was still wary of her, his wife, and secretly hid a lot of private money.

The more than 60 million yuan he borrowed from friends last time was also taken out of his own small treasury.

If the truth had not been revealed, an IOU for more than 60 million might have appeared out of nowhere in the future, and Mrs. Gu would have been asked to pay off the debt with him!

Mrs. Gu's anger, which had just subsided, flared up again. Not only did she confiscate Gu Kai's secret stash of money, she also vowed to get back all the money that her husband had transferred to his mistress and illegitimate daughter.

Right now, the Gu family might have to rely on Mrs. Gu to get through the difficult times. In order to stabilize Mrs. Gu, Gu Kai naturally had no choice but to cooperate obediently.

After Mrs. Gu got hold of the private money he had saved for many years, she immediately used it all to fill the debts owed by Gu Tingyan as a way of venting her anger.
