Upon their return, Gu Zhaoming narrowed his eyes, addressing Gu Pei in a hushed tone, “Pei, you mentioned that Long Xiang claims to have the backing of the Wang family?”
Gu Pei affirmed, “Yes, that’s what Brother Long asserted. He seemed unperturbed by the threat from our Gu family. I believe there’s truth to his claim.”
Given the Gu family’s prominence in Jin City, most families sought amicable relations with them. Even those not on friendly terms wouldn’t rush to provoke them. The only exception was their longstanding rival, the Wang family.
Ruan Xueling shot Gu Zhaoming a pointed look, her voice laced with frustration. “You and Old Zhu haven’t taken down the Wang family yet?”
“Soon,” Gu Zhaoming replied, his gaze hardening.
The Wang family had not only harmed his daughter, Yangyang, but now they’d also targeted his son. They would pay dearly for their transgressions!
Unlike the Xue family of yesteryears, the Wang family had deep-rooted influence in Jin City. Their downfall wouldn’t be swift or easy.
Over the past six months, he and Old Zhu had been working to undermine the Wang Corporation from the outside. Zhaofeng Entertainment had already poached numerous talents from Huanyu Entertainment, causing the latter’s decline to accelerate by the day.
They were on the cusp of an opportunity to dismantle the Wang Corporation and subsequently acquire it.
Aware that Gu Zhaoming had a plan in motion, Ruan Xueling refrained from probing further.
Meanwhile, on the Wang family’s side, the eldest daughter, Wang Yunxin, had suffered severe blood loss in a car accident. Due to the lack of timely blood transfusion, she narrowly avoided going into shock.
After more than six months of recuperation, she had only recently been discharged from the hospital.
Under her father’s reign at the Wang Corporation, she held the position of eldest daughter of the family and acted as the leading figure in Huanyu Entertainment.
However, following the usurpation of power by the second branch led by Wang Qingli, she was swiftly ousted from the company, losing her authority.
Upon her discharge, she found herself embroiled in an investigation due to the involvement of her subordinate, Brother Long, in drug-related activities.
Wang Yunxin’s personal life had always been tumultuous. Previously, she frequently exploited her public status for personal gain and engaged in trysts with the company’s young talents.
During her prolonged hospitalization over the past six months, deprived of her usual distractions, she had spiraled into drug addiction in a quest for stimulation and numbness.
Meanwhile, Gu Zhaoming and Zhu Qi, vigilant over the Wang family’s affairs, wasted no time upon receiving this intelligence, promptly disseminating the news.
The news of the eldest daughter of the Wang family of Jin City being arrested for drug trafficking quickly became a trending topic.
The shares of Wang and Huanyu Entertainment continued to turn green, and a large number of investors sold their shares.
The current chairman of the Wang Corporation, Wang Qingli, was anxious. He immediately released a statement on the Internet, declaring that his family was unlucky and that Wang Yunxin had been expelled from the Wang family.
“Survival by cutting off the tail?” Gu Zhaoming scoffed upon reading Madam Wang’s statement.
During the late March monthly exam, Gu Pei unexpectedly failed, plummeting out of the top 200 rankings in his grade and consequently being transferred to Class Five downstairs.
Gu Pei had consistently maintained stable grades, rarely ever dropping out of Class One. Such a drastic decline was unprecedented.
Concerned by this abrupt change, the form teacher of Year Two Class One contacted his parents to inquire about the situation.
Ever since Gu Pei’s breakup, Gu Yang had been monitoring his mental state closely, offering counsel when needed. Logically, Gu Pei shouldn’t have been affected so profoundly.
When Gu Yang sought out Gu Pei, she found him engrossed in watching a gaming video in his room.
“Hey, sis, what’s up?” Gu Pei removed his earphones and reclined in his eSports chair, stretching his arms.
Perhaps it was the impact of Gu Jin’s martial arts prowess displayed during their last encounter at the internet cafe, but Gu Pei had been dedicating more time to his physical fitness lately. He even enlisted Gu Zhaoming’s help to find experienced instructors for grappling and combat techniques.
As a result, the frequency of arguments between Gu Pei and Gu Jin had noticeably decreased.
Partly, it was due to Gu Jin saving him recently, leaving him indebted to her. Additionally, he harbored a slight fear of provoking her, given her capability for delivering consequences.
The grim fate of Brother Long and his cohorts remained etched in his memory, serving as a stark reminder of Gu Jin’s ability to protect him, a realization that dawned on him only later.
