Mr. Gu’s heart skipped a beat, "I’m actually in pretty good health... not that frail."
"So, that’s why you should maintain it. If you’re affected by unclean entities, you could end up like Mrs. Gu. In my opinion, you shouldn’t bother with her anymore. No matter how much money you have, it could all be lost on her alone. Common frauds in worldly society don’t have the ability to drive them away. Have you seen many Spiritual Practitioners like me?"
She smiled as she left. Mr. Gu stood there, completely stunned.
If Gu Lili hadn’t alerted him, he wouldn’t have this awareness. Just hearing her words, he felt dizzy, short of breath, and terrified.
Mr. Gu turned back to look at his younger son, "We need to put your mother’s matter on hold for now. Thirty million in one go, our family can’t keep this up. To prevent future troubles, I’m assigning you a very important task. You need to find someone like Gu Lili, that way, our whole family can be safeguarded."
"Where should I even start looking?" Gu Minlai was totally confused, "Should I place an ad?"
"Of course not," Mr. Gu whispered, "It must be found in secret."
"What about my job at the company..."
"Set it aside for now," Mr. Gu commanded, "It’s not that important anyway. Focus on this task now."
Gu Minlai was somewhat reluctant, "Dad, my brother has better connections and is smarter. If this task were given to him, I think he would handle it faster."
"Is it his mother lying in bed unable to move? Are you asking him to go?" Mr. Gu glared at him annoyed, "Stop talking nonsense, you go."
Gu Minlai wanted to say more but ended up holding his breath and saying nothing.
Gu Lili hadn’t called Gu Xichen yet when she received a call from him.
"You were quick with your call."
"Lili, I’m truly impressed by you."
Gu Lili feigned ignorance, "What do you mean by that?"
"Are you playing dumb? Earning three million so easily, do you know how much our company earns in net profits per day? Compared to you, we’re earning money at a snail’s pace."
"Flattery, it was your dad who insisted on giving me the money himself. You know, I’ve been used to being poor since I was little, now I’ve just grown fond of money. He wanted me there to take a look, and of course I went. But I can’t go back on my word to you, I promised to handle your stepmother and I will."
Gu Xichen admired her profoundly, "It really is the best of both worlds."
"I think so too. Alright, I’m off to find my husband now, hanging up."
Gu Lili was in an excellent mood. ʀᴇᴀᴅ ʟᴀᴛᴇsᴛ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀᴛ novel·fıre·net
Just a visit to the Gu Family, and three million was in hand.
This money was too easy to earn.
She drove her car to the Long Group’s parking lot.
Taking out her makeup pouch, she touched up her makeup, looking beautiful as she got out of the car.
Walking through the revolving door, both the lobby manager and the security guard greeted her.
She smiled in response, and the obsequious lobby manager escorted her to the elevator, pressing the button for her.
Almost every visit was treated .
Gu Lili reached Long Yubei’s office floor, and the secretary saw her and said, "Young Madam, President Long is not in the office."
"Yes, President Long went to City B this morning and said he would be back in an hour."
"No worries, you do your thing, don’t mind me."
The secretary nodded, "Alright, if Young Madam needs anything, just instruct me."
