Lady Gu Is Too Weak To Fend For Herself



He Weinian's expression darkened. He did not expect Qiao Xi to come to the press conference. The matter of Gu Zheng stealing the necklace was already a sure bet. It would not change anything even if she came.

Qiao Xi was wearing a long beige coat and had casually tied her hair into a bun. She walked in elegantly and arrogantly. The reporters' microphones were already in front of her, but she still maintained her smile.

"Mrs. Gu, as President Gu's wife, don't you think it's a little too much for you to suddenly appear at the press conference?" someone said with a mocking expression.

Qiao Xi smiled gently. "Everyone, I'm sorry I'm late. Since the press conference President He is holding is related to my husband, I think I have the right to stay here."

ραпdα- n૦νe|`c,0m The person accused angrily, "Gu Zheng stole the donated necklace. Shouldn't you apologize on his behalf? People like you only care about benefits and don't care about the lives of the people in the mountains at all!"

Qiao Xi was not angry and said with an innocent expression, "Since you've said so, let's make things clear today. I'm the creator of Scorching Heart and also the donor. If I didn't want to donate it, no one could force me. Why should Gu Zheng steal it? Our family doesn't lack this necklace!"

The person was instantly speechless. He subconsciously glanced at He Weinian, then retorted, "You and Gu Zheng just want good reputations, but you can't bear to part with the 300 million!"

Qiao Xi sneered. "It's fine for a reporter to think this way, so I'm here today to clarify things for Gu Zheng."

He Weinian stood on the stage and looked sharply at the calm woman.

The corners of Qiao Xi's mouth curled up slightly as she casually stroked the hair on her forehead and revealed a sweet smile. "Everyone doesn't know yet, right? The necklace found in Longwan Residential has been appraised and confirmed to be a fake. It's only worth a few thousand yuan, so Gu Zheng was released last night."

The surroundings were silent, and He Weinian's face instantly cracked.

Madam He lost control of her expression and subconsciously roared, "Impossible!"

"Why not? He went to rest after returning home last night, so he didn't have time to tell Chairman He and the Gu family. Who would have thought that you would actually hold a press conference? Old Master Gu announced that he would expel Gu Zheng from the house, and Chairman He accused him of stealing." Qiao Xi sighed lightly. "You're his relatives and master. Why don't you believe in his character?"

The next second, everyone's phones rang one after another. They received a message almost at the same time. The jewelry appraiser hired by the police confirmed that the necklace found in Longwan Residential was a fake. The real thief must have framed Gu Zheng.ραпdα `nᴏνɐ| сom

Actually, when Gu Zheng was taken away by the police, the police had already confirmed that the necklace was a fake. However, Gu Zheng wanted to lure out the real thief, so he cooperated with the police to put on an act. Now that there were clues, Gu Zheng was released on the fifth day after the police detained him.

There was also a jewelry appraisal report under the statement released by the police that confirmed that the necklace was a fake.

At this moment, the entire venue was in an uproar. They did not expect the truth to be like this. Not only was Gu Zheng innocent, but he was also cooperating with the police to catch the real thief!

In the past five days, Gu Zheng had been infamous. Gu Corporation's shares had plummeted, and he was under immense pressure. However, he was still cooperating with the police to solve the case. He was too selfless!

Everyone's gazes on Qiao Xi became respectful. She casually found a seat and sat down. She said somewhat sadly, "My husband was deemed guilty when he was just helping the police solve the case. It's fine if the netizens scold him, but even Chairman He and Old Master Gu refused to believe him. They even held a press conference to criticize him. How disappointing!

"Ah Zheng, don't you think so?"

As soon as Qiao Xi finished speaking, she slowly turned around and looked at the door with a smile.

Everyone followed her gaze and instantly gasped. The man was tall and slowly walked toward everyone, exuding a strong sense of oppression.

On the stage, He Weinian's expression froze as he clenched his fists tightly.

The entire venue was silent for more than ten seconds before everyone came back to their senses. "It's President Gu! He's really released!"

"Mrs. Gu is right. He Weinian is President Gu's teacher, and Old Master Gu and Gu Weiming are his relatives. However, they both held a press conference to criticize him. Moreover, that necklace worth 300 million was donated by President Gu. It's fine that no one thanked him, but they even accused him of stealing. Isn't this too much?!"

He Weinian's expression changed abruptly. He met Qiao Xi's proud eyes and realized that he had been schemed against by Qiao Xi and Gu Zheng!

He forced himself to calm down and squeezed out an ugly smile. "Ah Zheng, so it was all a misunderstanding. I'm very happy that you're safe and sound."
