Chapter 1329 Just A Chess Piece 4
Xi Xinyi was no fool. She instantly understood what Mu Yuchen meant after a brief reminder from him. “I understand! I’ll do my best!” she said in determination.
Mu Yuchen sipped more of the tea. “I made a deal with Han Yifeng. He promised that he’ll side with Qi Lei if I can help him market his new products. He even promised that he won’t give you trouble if you were to become the US operating manager.”
Xi Xinyi’s eyes brightened up as her gloomy expression disappeared in an instant. She was glittering with joy as her eyes went teary. “Really? He agreed? Did he really?”
Mu Yuchen glanced at Xi Xinyi who was hopelessly happy at the moment, and he nodded. “That’s all that I can do for you. The rest is up to you.”
He stood up and turned towards the staircase.
“Don’t worry, Brother-in-law, I’ll do my best! I will! Tell my sister that I’m really sorry for what I did. I’ll use the rest of my life to make it up for her! Thank you for giving me this chance. Thank you…” Xi Xinyi cried as she thanked Mu Yuchen.
Mu Yuchen did not slow down. Instead, he just said when he reached the stairs, “Xiaye wanted me to help. You should know that she was never a cruel person. She didn’t want to use you like a chess piece, and yet you hurt her over and over again. I just hope that you can finally understand what it means to be a family. Can you at least do that for me?”
He then left Xi Xinyi alone.
Her face turned pale as tears flowed down her cheeks…
Family…
She finally realized how precious family was at her lowest. How could she not have known about this earlier?
If she could have been more generous, she might have been able to get along with Xiaye, but for almost thirty years, it had never occurred to her.
What was the point of suppressing people she was jealous of?
Why could she not unite with her and go against the external forces?
Xi Xinyi felt like she had never been this clear-minded before in her life!
She did not doubt Mu Yuchen’s words at all. She was not being used as a chess piece. Mu Yuchen and Xi Xiaye were looking for reasons to save her. She understood it all now…
…
A chess piece?
She was not the only one who struggled with this term.
Inside Doris’s holiday villa, Gu Lingsha looked quietly at Doris who was smoking on the sofa at the moment. She could faintly see the mark on her neck, as well as the scratches on her face, though the slap mark had already vanished.
Gu Lingsha could not believe that he would do such a thing to Doris.
Gu Qiwu had always doted on Doris and let her do whatever she wanted. He gave the best of everything to her and never messed with any woman outside. They always looked like the best couple to everyone, the model of a married couple.
What happened?
How could Gu Qiwu do this to the woman he loved?
Although Gu Lingsha knew that the recent incidents created some friction between them, she thought they still had feelings for each other, so how could Gu Qiwu have hurt her so badly?
However, no one else knew what they talked about except themselves, so Gu Lingsha had no idea what happened.
“Mother, why would Father do this to you? Did you say something to make him mad? Why was he so angry? I heard he looked furious when he left…” Gu Lingsha carefully asked.
She heard from someone that Gu Qiwu initially planned to let her take over Hui Gu, but Doris’s greedy intention to control Hui Gu enraged Gu Qiwu, and she was just Doris’s chess piece used to juggle between Hui Gu and the Qi family.
Doris wanted to use the Qi family’s influence to pressure Gu Qiwu.
However, he also wanted her to take control of the Qi family’s influence. She felt that she was constantly being used by Gu Qiwu, Doris, and even Qi Feng to go against each other. Her sudden realization made her feel sad.
Doris laughed at her question. “He’s just a cheap hypocrite. Do you really think he’s a gentleman?”
“Mother, Father has always been a person with extraordinary self-control. I don’t think he would actually harm you if you didn’t do anything ridiculous. Moreover, you’re the one at fault here. I don’t see Father’s revenge being odd. Why can’t you just let up for once? I believe he will accept you again since he loved you so much. I’m sure he wouldn’t just forget about the decades of marriage between the two of you!” Gu Lingsha said.
Doris let out a puff of smoke before staring at her coldly. “I wouldn’t believe that you’re actually my daughter if you didn’t have a face that looks like mine. How could my daughter be this naive and stupid?!”
Gu Lingsha was stunned by her mother’s words, and she bit her lip.
Doris had always been like this, she had a sharp tongue and would not even be considerate about her own daughter’s feelings.
“You deserve to be treated just like a chess piece with that IQ of yours!”
