Chapter 44: It’s All a Scam

The ride back to Zhuang Nainai’s house was silent. The three bodyguards were finally able to enjoy some peace and quiet.

Zhuang Nainai alighted and politely waved them off. With a smile, she added, “Say hello to your boss for me!”

She then turned and dashed into her house.

What an adrenaline-pumping day.

First, she swindled 500 thousand yuan, then she got captured while on escape, and now, she was alive again. She felt as if she was on a day-long roller coaster ride. She needed something to calm herself down.

However...

She still could not figure out what Si Zhengting’s words meant that day.

Was the wedding still on?

She was deep in her thoughts when she approached the humble house she and her mother lived in. After unlocking its door, she entered to find a man waiting on the couch.

Zhuang Nainai wondered if she was in the wrong house.

She surveyed her surroundings. It was indeed the small living room she had lived in for years. Zhuang Nainai looked at Gu Deshou with a guilty smile on her face. She owed him an explanation for all she had done today, and she did not want to lie to him about Si Zhengting agreeing to marry her. She started, “Dad! What are you doing here? I have something to tell you...”

Gu Deshou gave a kind smile and patted her on the back. “Qingyan, I’ve thought about it, the relationship with your mother is strained due to Mother Zhuang. You are, after all, our child. You don’t know what your mother went through all these years, worrying about you. She’s a softie at heart even though she doesn’t look it. You guys can’t be so cold towards each other all the time.”

Zhuang Nainai sighed. Since she had decided not to leave, it was necessary to mend the relationship with the Gu’s.

She was never an obstinate person, so she nodded and replied, “Ok, Dad, I know.”

The Gu’s did finance her with the 500 thousand yuan. She should be grateful.

Gu Deshou smiled again. “Since your wedding is just around the corner, stay with us for the next month or two. You can take the time to get close to and build a better rapport with your mother.”

Zhuang Nainai was just about to blurt out the truth when she heard him continue, “I know you can’t leave Mother Zhuang here alone. I’ve just sent her to be treated by a famous psychiatrist overseas who specializes in neurosciences. She would get much better treatment there. That way, she would also not come between you and your mother again.”

Zhuang Nainai looked up abruptly and fixed her gaze on Gu Deshou in disbelief.

He was still all smiles, watching her with tender, fatherly eyes. Anyone who looked at them then would have assumed that they were on the best terms.

However, a layer of cold sweat broke out on Zhuang Nainai’s back.

She understood now.

Gu Deshou was using Mother Zhuang to blackmail her!

The loving care and kindness was all a show. The plea for her to build better ties with Li Yufeng was also a scam.

Zhuang Nainai felt like she was frozen in space – that she was ensnared in a large net from which she could not escape.

She opened her mouth only to close it again. There was nothing she could say.

Mother is in their hands .

If she antagonized them...

A smile appeared instantly on her face. “I get it, Dad.”
