Chapter 100: Who Exactly Did This?

~7 min read 1,334 words

Gu Wenyan displayed an extremely distressed and pained mood, feeling utterly dejected, which made anyone watching her feel heartbroken as well.

Gu Yechen looked at her with some worry: "Don't be afraid, Big Brother will get you justice."

"…I hope so." Gu Wenyan shrugged, looking as if she didn't hold any expectations.

As she was about to leave, she happened to walk past someone.

Gu Wenyan thought of something, turned her head to look at her, and narrowed her eyes.

"Wang Ma, what were you doing last night? And… this morning, you've been the first person in the house to wake up these past few days, right?"

Before Wang Ma could speak, Gu Mianmian sternly accused: "Sister! You can suspect me, but how can you suspect Wang Ma? Wang Ma treats us like her own daughter; it is absolutely impossible for her to do such a thing. You are going too far!"

"Even if you have a prejudice against Wang Ma… you shouldn't be like this!"

Gu Wenyan laughed: "What are you in such a rush for? Did I say Wang Ma did it? I was just asking… asking Wang Ma what exactly she knows."

"Also, Gu Mianmian, your behavior right now makes me feel very baffled."

Gu Mianmian was not flustered, but instead said with righteous indignation: "I just don't want you to suspect Wang Ma! If you want to suspect Wang Ma, then just assume I did it! Anyway, someone in this house has to take the blame…"

"Otherwise, you will just feel like it's all our fault! Besides, what if it was just a stray cat that did it…"

"Alright, stop arguing!" Gu Jue spoke with a dark expression, "We all trust Wang Ma. As for what the actual problem is, we will know once we check the surveillance and investigate thoroughly."

Gu Yechen also nodded: "I won't go to the company for now; I will help you find out the truth about this matter."

Gu Wenyan said: "Fine, then let's investigate… However, Wang Ma, I still have to ask you. Of course, I am not suspecting you, I just want to ask if you saw any unusual situations when you woke up this morning or before you went to sleep yesterday?"

Wang Ma shook her head: "Miss, I truly didn't see anything. After dinner ended last night, I went back to my room to rest very early. This morning, I was busy in the kitchen making breakfast for everyone, and I didn't go to the backyard, so I'm not very clear about what the situation is."

"Mm, understood."

Soon, Gu Yechen sent people to pull up the house's surveillance, but the existing cameras had blind spots, and they were unable to find out what the situation was.

Within the range of the surveillance, there was basically nothing unusual appearing.

Gu Wenyan sneered: "It seems it cannot be found out for the time being."

Gu Yechen said: "We will question the servants in the house separately later to see what they know; we will investigate to the end."

"Sister, I know you suspect me in your heart right now, but this time I guarantee it has nothing to do with me!"

Gu Mianmian had a sufficient alibi and proof of absence; it truly could not have been her.

"Since it wasn't you, then I apologize for my questioning of you just now. However, once I find out who is doing this, I will definitely make her… extremely regretful."

After saying this, Gu Wenyan turned around and did not continue to dwell on this topic.

Anyway, it wouldn't be found out so quickly who was playing tricks behind the scenes, or who was so vicious as to damage all her flowers and plants to this state.

Gu Wenyan would not let that person off just like that.

Gu Wenyan actually already had her own suspicions, but suspicion is just suspicion; without evidence, she couldn't just go around randomly questioning and accusing.

But her mood had indeed hit rock bottom. Thinking about how her hard work of so many days had been destroyed just like that… and that it would probably take even longer to restore everything, she felt annoyed.

Fortunately, she could cultivate them again, but it was a pity about these petals that had fallen to the ground, as well as the roots of the orchids, all shattered on the ground—a heavy loss.

After Gu Wenyan left, the three young masters of the Gu Family met up to talk about this matter.

Gu Yechen asked: "Who do you suspect did it?"

Gu Yeting said: "It shouldn't be Mianmian."

"Then who could it be…"

Gu Yefeng shook his head: "I don't know. Perhaps it was someone in the house, but perhaps it wasn't."

Gu Yechen said: "The surveillance can't catch the situation inside right now. I will send people to check the external surveillance to see if there are any clues."

"Someone is targeting Wen Yan; we cannot let this continue…" Gu Yeting's expression was also quite ugly.

They reached a consensus at this moment, even though Gu Wenyan always suspected their feelings for her and always felt that she wasn't that important in their hearts.

But in reality, these three brothers had already, unknowingly, come to regard her as a very important person.

Gu Mianmian specifically went to find Gu Yeting.

"Brother, I didn't do what happened today. Do you… do you believe me?"

Gu Yeting nodded: "I believe you."

"That's great. I was afraid that even you wouldn't believe me. I am so afraid that in this house in the future… no matter what I do, no one will trust me. That kind of life is so painful…"

Gu Yeting comforted her in a low voice: "Don't be afraid. Since you didn't do it, of course we couldn't possibly suspect you. Everything must be based on evidence; this time it truly has nothing to do with you."

"As for who did it, don't worry, we will definitely resolve this matter. We absolutely do not allow such a situation to occur in this house."

Gu Mianmian smiled: "Brother, you're right. Find that person and get justice for me! Also, ask them why they would target Sister like that!"

The three young masters of the Gu Family all went to investigate the matter separately. Gu Wenyan had already gone to the company to work; although there was nothing to do at the company, she didn't want to stay at home right now.

Incidentally, it was also to show a firm enough attitude to let the Gu Family know that she was currently extremely angry.

When no one was paying attention…

Gu Mianmian and Wang Ma met up. Her gaze landed on Wang Ma, she smiled slightly, and then shifted her gaze away.

Everything happened in a short amount of time, and no one noticed.

On the day Gu Wenyan was working at the Gu Group, the more she thought about it, the more something felt wrong. Her intuition was very accurate, and her intuition told her…

This matter must have been done by Wang Ma.

In the Gu Family, the only person with the most possibility of acting against her without being suspected was Wang Ma.

As for the other servants, they didn't have the guts.

Even if Gu Mianmian wanted to spend money to bribe them, they would absolutely not dare to do so; otherwise, once discovered, they would face an unbearable outcome.

Therefore, it could only be Wang Ma, relying on her status in the hearts of the Gu Family to act unscrupulously, and even if she were caught, she could still deny it.

Moreover, judging from how this person avoided the surveillance, she was very familiar with the Gu Family and knew every corner of the surveillance like the back of her hand…

If it really was Wang Ma…

Gu Wenyan curled her lips. Very well, life from now on would be getting more and more exciting and interesting.
