Chapter 760: Chapter 764: Fifth Lord of Gu’s Deduction
Ye Xingbei watched in astonishment. “Is this evidence, or conjecture?”
“It’s an analysis based on some information Xiao Seventh gave me,” Gu Junzhu offered her the phone. “This stuff here.”
Ye Xingbei flipped through it carefully, scrutinizing each line. But she didn’t understand it. With a puzzled frown, she looked up at him. “It doesn’t show much! It’s just some trivial matters from people who knew Fang Haichuan, Fang Lutong, and Siqi.”
“Exactly,” Gu Junzhu said. “So I’m saying it’s a conjecture based on some trivial information.”
Ye Xingbei swallowed, feeling that the image of Fifth Lord of Gu in her mind was extremely impressive at this moment.
To her, those so-called pieces of information were nothing more than petty household details.
She simply couldn’t figure out how Gu Junzhu had come to the conclusion he just shared.
But she still hoped that Gu Junzhu’s conjecture was wrong!
She hoped Fang Yao was Mi Junyuan’s son!
She didn’t want Fang Yao to have anything to do with the Fang Family.
She pondered over what Gu Junzhu had just said, again and again. Suddenly her eyes lit up. “There’s something wrong with your analysis! Fang Yao is younger than Fang Yixian! Fang Yao calls Fang Yixian his older brother. That means Yi Xinning should have married Fang Lutong first. Fang Haichuan would have no reason to not want Siqi as his daughter-in-law, because he already had one!”
“Check this out,” Gu Junzhu took back his phone, scrolling down to a specific entry, pointing at the date. “This is the date when Fang Lutong and Mi Junyuan had a big fight. Fang Lutong broke one of Mi Junyuan’s arms and three ribs, causing Mi Junyuan to be hospitalized.”
He scrolled to another entry, “Look at this one. This is the date when Fang Lutong married Yi Xinning. Do you see something now?”
Ye Xingbei compared the two pieces of information again and again. “The fight between Fang Lutong and Mi Junyuan happened before Yi Xinning married Fang Lutong.”
“Right,” Gu Junzhu scrolled to another entry. “Look at this one. This is the date when Siqi moved out of the Fang Family.”
Ye Xingbei looked it over carefully. “The date Siqi moved out of the Fang Family is after the fight between Fang Lutong and Mi Junyuan, but before Fang Lutong and Yi Xinning got married.”
“Correct,” Gu Junzhu ruffled her hair a bit, then asked, “Do you know what this implies?”
Ye Xingbei was utterly confused. “What does it imply?”
Gu Junzhu adored her wide-eyed, bemused expression. He couldn’t help but lean down and kiss her before pulling her into his arms and saying, “By connecting these three points and reasoning through it, we can make a guess.”
Gu Junzhu pointed to the first point. “Fang Lutong found out that something was going on between Mi Junyuan and Siqi. He gave Mi Junyuan a good beating and cut off their cousin relationship.”
He then pointed to the second point. “Fang Lutong, furious that Siqi and Mi Junyuan were involved, broke up with Siqi. Siqi moved out of the Fang Family.”
Lastly he pointed to the third point. “Fang Lutong, who hated Siqi for betraying him, hastily married Yi Xinning under the active maneuvering of Fang Haichuan.”
Ye Xingbei’s mind raced, and she blinked up at him. “But Fang Yao is younger than Fang Yixian. Could it be that after Siqi moved out of the Fang Family, she rekindled her old flame with Fang Lutong?”
“I don’t think so,” Gu Junzhu shook his head and scrolled down again. “Look here. Not long after Siqi moved out from the Fang Family, she was taken away by the recently discharged Mi Junyuan.”
