Chapter 389: Chapter 389: There is always a higher mountain Chapter 389: Chapter 389: There is always a higher mountain “I don’t know where he is; he hasn’t come home for several days now.”
“You haven’t gone looking for him?” Ning Wanru suddenly raised her voice.
Her most beloved grandson hadn’t been home for days, and nobody had bothered to tell her.
“He said he was going out to clear his mind when he left, and he even called my mom in the morning. What could happen to a grown man like him?” Gu Yajing said, displeased.
Right now, her own problems were the most pressing. Apart from cursing at her, this old lady was of no help at all, her mind solely fixated on her grandson.
She said nothing more and, for the first time, stormed out without even greeting Ning Wanru.
Furious, Ning Wanru almost passed out from anger.
She thought to herself that something must have happened with their family, and she needed to see Tian Sanxian.
Meanwhile, Gu Yajing, driving her car, was seething with rage.
That Zhou Xue had always been beneath her foot.
But now, she even dared to go to the newspapers.
Gu Yajing was determined to teach her a lesson.
With this thought, she drove towards Lijing Ho.
The usually bossy Gu Yajing had forgotten Ning Wanru’s warning in her fury.
She angrily pushed open the glass revolving door of Lijing Ho.
An Xiaotong, who had been cautioned, saw her and hurried to greet her.
As An Xiaotong was about to say hello, Gu Yajing shoved her away, striding angrily towards the restroom.
Zhou Xue should be working here at this time.
Gu Yajing intended to shove her head into the toilet to shut her filthy mouth.
However, the end result was the arrival of the Public Security.
Master Fong was there, and there was also a plot already calculated in advance.
The plot was to wait for Gu Yajing to present herself on a platter.
Of course, whether it would succeed depended on Gu Yajing’s cooperation.
Fortunately, Gu Yajing didn’t disappoint Gu Qiaoqiao and Zhou Xue.
The moment Gu Yajing grabbed Zhou Xue to start a fight, Zhou Xue passed out.
This time, Gu Yajing truly became infamous.
After spending a day at the police station, she was temporarily released on bail.
On the third day, she received a notice of suspension pending investigation.
She no longer needed to go to work.
A week later, Gu Yajing was taken into custody again, suspected of intentional injury.
Meanwhile, with the vigorous Continue reading more chapters on NovelHub for the best experience.
This was a case of there always being a higher mountain.
The power of Gu Cheng and Ning Wanru hadn’t reached the point where they could do whatever they wanted.
However, Gu Yajing still needed to be bailed out.
This was a matter of Gu Cheng’s face.
But unexpectedly, they encountered unknown resistance.
Higher-ups had even inquired about the case.
At this time, the incident from five years ago, where Gu Yajing had paid thugs to brutally assault Zhou Xue’s parents, was also brought to light.
Turns out, the old couple had remained silent out of fear and concern for their daughter, choosing to suffer in hatred rather than speak out.
Which had caused them physical harm.
And at this critical juncture, Zheng Xiao stepped forward.
He went to the East Branch Bureau with a stack of documents.
No one knew what the documents were, and Gu Qiaoqiao didn’t want to know either; all she knew was that the plan had succeeded.
Gu Yajing was finally officially detained.
This was something Gu Qiaoqiao hadn’t expected.
However, it was also something she was pleased to witness.
Zhou Xue, who had been hospitalized, was finally transferred back to Imperial Capital.
She no longer had to worry about Gu Yajing’s insults.
Though seeming feeble, Zhou Xue had a strong resilience.
She wasn’t afraid of Gu Cheng and Gu Yajing’s reprisals.
Being already at a dead end, she had to choose to fight for survival.
Because even if she lived in disgrace, as long as Zheng Xiao was alive, and she was alive, she would never have peace.
