Chapter 115: This money is what she traded her body to get for you

As Qin Shu left the hotel, the last two sentences her teacher had left her echoed in her mind.

"Qin Shu, our research institute needs talent like you to join us."

Qin Shu drove back to the manor, her teacher's words still echoing in her mind; she had only remained silent after hearing them at the time.

"Teacher, I am afraid I will have to disappoint your expectations."

The research team led by her teacher was strictly confidential and operated in a closed environment.

The reason Qin Shu could not take the position was because she still had her grandmother in a nursing home and a child who was only five years old.

She could not walk away.

That research project was extremely arduous; if she went, she did not know how many years it would take to return, and she was afraid she would not see her grandmother for the last time or miss out on Chenchen's growth.

The Chu Family.

As soon as Chu Sheng entered the door, she slammed it loudly; she had been testing the Gu Family's attitude, but Gu Tingyan and Qin Shu had not divorced for so long, dragging it out.

The fundamental reason for this now was that Gu Tingyan did not want to divorce.

To think he even signed that kind of contract!

One hour ago.

Chu Sheng went to the Gu Group to find Gu Tingyan; everyone at the Gu Group knew that both President Gu and the chairman, Gu Huaiyuan, treated Chu Sheng differently.

The group's employees did not dare to neglect her and took her directly to the president's office.

While waiting for Gu Tingyan, the secretary-general came in to retrieve a contract already signed by President Gu, and Chu Sheng helped look for it.

She pulled open a drawer and inadvertently discovered that contract inside the drawer.

Seeing her ugly expression, Jiang Chenxue asked with concern: "What is going on?"

"Who bullied you outside?"

Chu Sheng threw her bag onto the sofa, her expression gloomily terrifying: "It's all Gu Tingyan's fault!"

"He never even thought about divorcing Qin Shu!"

"Do I have to wait until I'm seventy or eighty years old!"

Upon hearing this, Jiang Chenxue's expression also turned cold and grim.

"Gu Tingyan, is he playing for real?"

"That's right."

Thinking of what she had found in Gu Tingyan's drawer today, Chu Sheng's expression was even worse: "To keep Qin Shu tied down, Gu Tingyan even signed some kind of kept-woman contract with her!"

"Qin Shu is truly base beyond measure to even sign that kind of underground mistress contract!"

Jiang Chenxue looked up abruptly: "They even signed that kind of contract?"

Chu Sheng pursed her lips and sneered: "That's right."

Jiang Chenxue pondered: "Why would Qin Shu sign it?"

Chu Sheng curled her lip: "It's because Gu Tingyan threatened her with her grandmother; I heard the person fell from upstairs at the time."

"Gu Tingyan had her moved from that nursing home in the north of the city to that nursing home in the south of the city."

"The medical expenses, the caregiver fees, a huge sum of money, all paid by Gu Tingyan."

"It's a huge expense every year."

Jiang Chenxue quite detested that old hag of the Qin Family; the Qin Family members were all dead, yet she still wouldn't die, and she still spent so much of Tingyan's money every year!

This money should have belonged to Chu Sheng.

Intense unwillingness showed in Chu Sheng's eyes: "Isn't the Gu Family trying to drag me to death?"

If Gu Tingyan never divorced for his whole life, was she supposed to wait for Gu Tingyan for her whole life?

She did not want to make this unprofitable deal.

She wanted to be the Head Mistress of the Gu Family and be Gu Tingyan's legitimately wedded wife!

After finishing, Chu Sheng cried and collapsed into Jiang Chenxue's arms: "Mom, you have to help me."

Jiang Chenxue had always doted on Chu Sheng; with a ruthless glint in her eyes, she patted her shoulder comfortingly: "Don't worry, Mom will help you."

As long as she waited for that old hag to die, this marriage between Gu Tingyan and Qin Shu would be completely over.

Jiang Chenxue did not like Qin Shu, but she also knew that she was a person of flesh and blood who valued loyalty and righteousness, possessed extremely high self-esteem, and placed great importance on her relatives and friends.

She admired such a spirited person; it was just a pity that Qin Shu stood in her daughter's way.

The next day.

Jiang Chenxue walked into that nursing home carrying her bag, bribed the staff inside with money, took the opportunity to sneak in, and saw Qin Laotaitai, whom she had not seen for many years.

On the nursing home's spacious lawn, many patients had come out to bask in the sun.

Qin Laotaitai sat on a chair, watching a man and a woman in the corner nearby pretending to be mushrooms; she stared at them, found it very interesting, and started to laugh.

Suddenly, a shadow loomed over her; Jiang Chenxue stood there with her bag, looking down at her: "Auntie Qin, long time no see."

At this familiar, unforgettable voice, which she hated to the bone, Qin Laofuren's consciousness slowed for a moment; she raised her head slowly and stiffly, her cloudy gaze falling upon Jiang Chenxue.

Seeing that familiar face, the culprit who had caused her family to be destroyed, no matter how many years passed, even if she sometimes could not even remember herself.

Yet those two faces, Jiang Chenxue and Chu Xuanming, were like demons, deeply engraved in the deepest part of her heart; they were the most terrifying thing for Qin Laofuren.

The old lady hunched her back, looked up, stared at her with burning eyes, and said with hatred in her voice: "Jiang. Chen. Xue."

A caregiver nearby sensed something was wrong, immediately walked over, and sternly scolded Jiang Chenxue: "Who are you? Stay away from the elderly lady."

"Who let you in?"

"Bodyguards, bodyguards, come in quickly."

Jiang Chenxue turned around and smiled at the caregiver: "Don't worry, I won't hurt her."

Jiang Chenxue curled her lips: "I was best friends with her daughter back then; since she is dead, I have come to see her mother on her behalf."

It was unknown which word stimulated Qin Laofuren, but it awakened her most painful memories.

Her face turned deathly pale, and she stood up, intending to strike Jiang Chenxue: "You are unworthy, you are unworthy of being Zhiyun's friend!"

Seeing the bodyguards enter, Jiang Chenxue immediately threw a stack of documents at her with a malicious smile: "You looked down on me back then, but hasn't your own granddaughter also debased herself to become someone else's secret mistress?"

"Do you know whose man she is snatching?"

"He is my daughter's!"

"My daughter bore a son for Gu Tingyan, yet she is so shameless as to seduce Tingyan!"

"Tell your granddaughter to stay away from my son-in-law."

"She is base and shameless, not even as good as a secret mistress!"

Qin Laofuren stopped the bodyguards from taking Jiang Chenxue away, her whole body trembling with rage as she clutched the stack of documents: "You are spouting nonsense!"

Jiang Chenxue was glad she had saved all of Qin Shu's past scandals; she took out her phone and held it in front of Qin Laofuren: "Spouting nonsense? Heh~"

"Oh, your granddaughter was kidnapped back then, defiled, and committed suicide because she couldn't bear the humiliation."

"What a pity, she was saved."

"Tingyan loves my daughter and gave her a gift worth 210 million directly; he has never loved your granddaughter."

"As for Qin Shu, it's nothing more than a physiological need; Qin Shu seduced him, she's not even as good as a whore!"

Jiang Chenxue spoke viciously, each sentence more unpleasant than the last, hurling insults at Qin Shu and even dragging the deceased Qin Zhiyun into it.

Jiang Chenxue leaned close to her ear and whispered: "Oh, do you know why Qin Shu has fallen to such a base state?"

She chuckled, her eyes filled with disdain: "Auntie Qin, the large sum of money for you to live in such a high-end nursing home was all exchanged for by her with her body."
