Chapter 364 I Want Him Ruined and Disgraced
"Chenchen, Dad has some things to take care of, so I can't have dinner with you. I'll make it up to you next time I have time. Tell your sister." He Yi's deep, magnetic voice came from the phone.
Chenchen felt a surge of excitement and immediately said loudly, "Okay, I'll tell my sister."
"Ah."
After the call ended, Chenchen quickly told Niu Niu the story. Niu Niu listened with a puzzled look, "Daddy really said that? He had something to do and that's why he left? Or did Mommy kick him out?"
"He apologized to you and said he would make it up to us when he had time."
"No, I want to talk to Dad myself. Brother, call Dad back, I want to talk to him."
Seeing her aggrieved and stubborn look, Chenchen nodded and called He Yi back.
The call was quickly reconnected.
Niu Niu couldn't wait to call out, "Daddy!"
Her delicate voice clearly carried a hint of tears.
He Yi paused for a moment, then asked, "Niu Niu, what's wrong? Are you crying?"
“Mom told me you left and weren’t staying for dinner. I thought Mom was angry again and kicked you out, so I argued with her. Mom… she yelled at me and said that if I wanted to, I could stay with her from now on and she wouldn’t care about me anymore!”
He Yi froze upon hearing this.
A few seconds later, he said, "I'm sorry, Niu Niu. I was in a hurry to leave and forgot to tell you that your mother didn't kick me out. Also, do you remember what I told you? You're not allowed to talk back to your mother, not even because of me."
"I...I just..."
"Yes, Dad knows you did this for Dad, and Dad is very happy. But Mom will be very sad if you do this. Mom is the one who loves you the most and cares about you the most. You should love her the most too. Why don't you apologize to Mom later? Tell her that you will never hold a grudge against her again?" He Yi continued to coax her gently.
The little girl was silent for a moment, then said, "Okay, I understand, Dad. I will do as you say."
"Niu Niu is such a good girl, she's truly Daddy's little darling. Daddy will talk to you again when he has time, and then make up for today's dinner."
"Okay, Dad, you have to remember that."
"Yeah, definitely!"
Niu Niu returned the watch to her brother, then stared intently at Gu Zhiyao with her big eyes. After a while, she walked over hesitantly, stood in front of Gu Zhiyao, and looked up at her, saying, "Mom, I'm sorry."
Gu Zhiyao's body stiffened slightly. She had just seen Niu Niu talking to He Yi on the phone, but she didn't know what He Yi had said on the phone.
"I was too anxious just now, and I couldn't help but yell at you. I didn't mean it. In my heart, you are just as important as Dad. I won't easily go to Dad. Unless you are with Dad, I will stay with you. I will pay attention to controlling my emotions in the future and never let this happen again. Mom, can you give me a chance and forgive me?"
Gu Zhiyao burst into tears.
She's only five years old, not even six yet, but the words she uttered are truly heartbreaking!
Niu Niu continued to look at Gu Zhiyao pitifully.
Gu Zhiyao's heart softened completely. She squatted down and hugged her. "Mom didn't mean to be mean to you. Mom was afraid that you liked your dad more than Mom and that you would really go with him. Mom was also wrong. Let's not let this happen again, okay? Forget about what Mom said that made you sad. Mom will not give you to anyone, not even your dad. Mom will make sure you stay by Mom's side for the rest of your life!"
"Okay, I understand, Mom! I love you!"
After the rain, the sky clears up.
Yifei watched all this silently, and tears welled up in his eyes as well.
This little argument is over.
But Gu Zhiyao could never forget the despicable things He Yi did to her.
Two days later, when Xiao Lin returned, she told him about a decision.
Xiao Lin was also extremely shocked when she heard her say that she was going to deal with He Yi.
"Over the years, he's managed to grow the He Group to such a large size; there must be something shady going on. Brother Xiao Lin, can you help me find some evidence of his crimes? I want him to be utterly disgraced!" Gu Zhiyao said through gritted teeth, radiating anger and hatred.
Xiao Lin pondered for a moment before speaking, "You're right. Although the He Group was already very powerful, it has become one of the top companies in the country under his management. There must be some unknown aspects to that. But are you sure? Did something happen? Did he help Zheng Yuanxi get away with it?"
Gu Zhiyao thought for a moment and decided not to mention that He Yi had bullied and forced himself on her again. She only said, "The last time I reported that matter, because of insufficient evidence and the laws here... I guess we probably won't be able to convict him of anything. So I want to try a different approach. Everyone in the business world has enemies. He's a big shot and arrogant. He must have made enemies over the years. Maybe we can team up with his enemies to deal with him? There must be a lot of people who want to kill him."
"Yes, that's true. But Zhiyao, I still want to know why you suddenly want to bring him down. Did he do something to you again? Did he force you again..."
"No, I was thinking that if something happened to him, he wouldn't be able to protect Zheng Yuanxi, and he would have no chance to fight me for custody of Chenchen and Niuniu. Although Chenchen and Niuniu are with me now, what if He Yi sues again in the future and fights for custody of Chenchen and Niuniu again?"
"What you said makes sense. Okay, I'll make the arrangements!" Upon hearing this, Xiao Lin stopped thinking about it and decided not to dwell on the reasons anymore.
Although he was surprised by Gu Zhiyao's decision, he was also happy and gratified. Her ability to be ruthless towards He Yi showed that she might have truly given up on him!
This is great news, fantastic news!
However, before Gu Zhiyao could find any evidence to attack He Yi, she suddenly received news that Zheng Yuanxi had been released.
Originally, the Zheng family wanted to bring Zheng Yuanxi back to China so that they could use their connections to get her out of trouble. However, the relevant departments seemed to have seen through their motives and, considering that Gu Zhiyao was an official here and this was just a private matter, they naturally did not agree to help the Zheng family.
Zheng Xiaohui then sought another way, using mental illness to help Zheng Yuanxi escape punishment.
Zheng Yuanxi did indeed suffer from mental illness. With some special actions, she could attribute the whole incident to a mental breakdown that caused her to lose control. At the time, she was not in a clear mind and had no idea what she was doing!
Gu Zhiyao was absolutely furious when she heard this!
She immediately remembered that He Yi had once told her that Zheng Yuanxi had a mental illness!
Therefore, it was concluded that He Yi had once again protected Zheng Yuanxi and helped her escape punishment!
She was angry, she hated!
"Zhiyao, Zhiyao, what's wrong? Don't get agitated. Calm down first, no matter what." It was Xiao Lin who told Gu Zhiyao this news.
He had guessed that Gu Zhiyao would react strongly and feel bad, but Gu Zhiyao's behavior at this moment was completely beyond his expectations.
