Chapter 258 Shooting Yourself in the Foot
Gu Nankai frowned and interrupted her: "What kind of dishonesty are you talking about?"
What Gu Nankai was thinking of at this moment was actually the son that Wu Qilian mentioned when he and Ye Lanqing quarreled. Now that he thought about it, perhaps not giving up could give him a more credible answer.
Bu Yao thought about it and felt a little embarrassed: "Uncle, I won't be scolded for saying bad things about others like this , right? After all, I just heard what my mom and her friends said when they were playing mahjong, and I don't know whether it's true or not."
"Don't worry, most of the gossip told while playing mahjong is true."
Gao Yuan sneered and motioned for her to speak quickly.
Bu Yao stuck out her tongue and said, "You have seen Wu Mengjie's father, right? He's quite handsome, right?"
Gu Nankai and the others thought about it. At that time, Ye Lanqing was causing trouble and no one had time to focus on Wu Qilian. Now, after thinking about what he said, Wu Qilian's appearance was indeed not to be underestimated. He was indeed a handsome guy as Bu Yao said.
Seeing everyone's expressions, Bu Yao smiled and continued, "Wu Mengjie's father is good-looking. Although Ye Lanqing is also good-looking, she is still not worthy of this handsome guy in terms of appearance. In addition, Wu Qilian's career has gradually improved after marriage, so Ye Lanqing is always afraid that Wu Qilian will abandon her, so she has a series of tricks, the most outrageous of which is giving birth to a son."
Bu Yao became more and more excited as he spoke, completely forgetting his initial concerns, while Gu Nankai and the others also listened with great interest. Why not change your mind once in a while and listen to a story?
"At that time, Ye Lanqing's family had a young female tutor, who was hired by Ye Lanqing to teach Wu Mengjie. The girl was making good money, but Ye Lanqing had set her sights on her. One time, when Wu Qilian came back drunk, Ye Lanqing seemed to have planned it in advance. She got some drugs from somewhere and knocked the girl unconscious. Then she and Wu Qilian were chained to the same room. In the morning, she turned the tables and insisted that the two of them had wronged her. But the girl clearly remembered that she was knocked unconscious by Ye Lanqing. Later, Wu Qilian also investigated, and Wu Mengjie knew this very well."
After listening to Bu Yao's words, Gu Nankai went over the matter in his mind. If Bu Yao's words were credible, then Ye Lanqing's purpose was to try to make Wu Qilian feel guilty about herself through this incident. Now think about it, for a woman as extreme as Ye Lanqing, it is very likely that she would think of doing the opposite.
"After that, which tutor gave birth to this son?"
After thinking it through, Gu Nankai asked Bu Yao another question.
"Of course, she sacrificed a good girl like this, and she wanted to turn the tables and ruin her reputation, but the girl refused and left quietly. Unexpectedly, a year later, she came to her house again, holding a child and saying that she wanted to return to her ancestral home. At this time, Ye Lanqing could only open her mouth and swallow her loss. Wu Qilian quickly did a paternity test, and the child was indeed his."
Wu Qingluan felt that a TV screenwriter could write a TV series based on this story. She laughed and said, "Ye Lanqing really shot herself in the foot. She thought the whole world had to revolve around her, but she didn't expect that this tutor was not a pushover. She would wait until the child was born before looking for someone else. At this time, Ye Lanqing can't do anything."
"That's right. Wu Qilian feels guilty towards the mother and son. Besides, the child is a boy. Now he is well fed, well fed and well cared for. The two of them originally had no feelings for each other, but after Ye Lanqing's various disturbances, Wu Qilian now spends more and more time with the mother and son."
Bu Yao really felt that Ye Lanqing was a useless woman, as she had ruined a good hand of cards.
"So because Wu Qilian had a son, Ye Lanqing became more and more self-centered in nurturing Wu Mengjie. She hoped that Wu Mengjie could marry into a good family to save face for herself, otherwise it would be difficult for her to survive in the Wu family."
After thinking about it, Wu Qingluan expressed her opinion.
Wu Qingluan was right. According to Bu Yao's subsequent statement, Ye Lanqing became increasingly strict with Wu Mengjie after that tutor brought the child to Wu Qilian's house. Wu Mengjie's personality also became more and more aloof and arrogant from that time on. In the final analysis, Wu Mengjie might just be a channel for Ye Lanqing to vent his emotions.
"In that case, Ye Lanqing can definitely send Wu Mengjie abroad. According to people like them, the education received abroad is much better than that received at home."
Gao Yuan blinked and also asked a question.
"Hey, of course I have thought about it. How could I not have thought about it? But in comparison, Ye Lanqing is more afraid that Wu Mengjie will be out of her control after going abroad, so she doesn't let her go abroad. Otherwise, according to Wu Mengjie's thinking, she should be eager to study abroad. Her mother is so perverted, the farther away from her, the better."
Bu Yao sneered, and then added: "Don't think that Bu Yao can live outside freely after entering university, but she has to go home when her mother wants her to. Wu Qilian seems to know his daughter's difficulties, so he tries to be nice to Ye Lanqing. Ye Lanqing has been relatively quiet in the past two years. Most of her time is spent on shopping and trying her hand at spending money."
"What kind of mother is this? Is there any mother like this? And Wu Qilian doesn't look like a father at all!"
After hearing what everyone said, Li Meng felt more sympathetic towards Wu Mengjie and said something angrily.
Gu Nankai thought for a while in silence, going over all the conversations just now in his mind again. Through the conversations with Bu Yao just now, he could probably piece together Wu Mengjie's status in this family. He could also perhaps understand why Wu Mengjie had basically no friends. Perhaps on the one hand it was Ye Lanqing's desire for control, but on some level, it might be Wu Mengjie's own distrust of everyone in this world.
"Uncle policeman, I've finished talking. Can I go now?" Bu Yao's phone buzzed twice. She picked it up, took a look, and quickly asked Gu Nankai.
"Of course, thank you for your cooperation." Gu Nankai came back to his senses after hearing Bu Yao's voice, smiled and said to her.
Bu Yao shrugged her shoulders, still smiling, and said before leaving: "You should quickly find the murderer of Wu Mengjie, so that she can be explained. Although I hate her, we know each other after all."
After she left, Cao Cang said, "This girl is quite loyal."
Wu Qingluan smiled and said, "Like a little gangster, she is quite loyal, but like Wu Qingluan, she is also an outlier in the eyes of others. There is a world of difference."
A few people laughed and found that Gu Nankai was still thinking with a serious face. Cao Cang asked in a low voice: "Boss, have you thought of something?"
Gu Nankai came back to his senses from his deep thoughts and shook his head: "No, I was just wondering, Wu Mengjie seems so cold, why is she so enthusiastic about the boy in the photo?"
"Just check it out, Boss. Leave it to me. I'll check it out right away."
Gao Yuan became interested at this moment and raised his hand to respond to Gu Nankai.
Wu Qingluan rolled her eyes at him: "Didn't you say it was difficult? Why are you suddenly so enthusiastic now?"
Gao Yuan chuckled and said, "Hey, I'm doing this to make amends for my crime. I shouldn't have hidden the fact that I'm a second-generation rich man from our colleagues. I shouldn't have let you miss the chance to curry favor with me."
