Lady Gu Is Too Weak To Fend For Herself-Chapter 1649 - Investigating The He Family’s Charity
1649 Investigating The He Family’s Charity
Qiao Xi looked at the crowd. “Madam Ye, the Ye family is also a jewelry family. Can we invite the Ye family’s appraiser to participate?”
Madam Ye smiled and nodded. “Sure. Actually, in my experience, there’s a high chance that this necklace is real. After all, the rubies used in Scorching Heat are extremely rare. They’re dazzling and colorful. They’re irreplaceable.”
“Chairman He, you insist that this is a fake. When the results are out and it’s proven the necklace is real, I hope you won’t say that the necklace was left in the He family by someone else. No one will believe you then.”
“That’s right! Just now, you said that Miss He likes Scorching Heart and specially custom-made a fake. If it’s the real thing, who are you going to push the blame on?”
The corners of Qiao Xi’s mouth curled into a cold smile as she looked at the man beside her. “Ah Zheng, I’m tired. Let’s go.”
Gu Zheng nodded and held Qiao Xi’s hand as they left. The guests also left one after another. Not long after, only the He family was left in the room.
He Weinian looked at Gu Zheng’s back view as anger surged in his heart. The good student he had raised was pushing him into a fire pit!
He had been scheming for many years, basically his entire life. He could not be ruined by Gu Zheng just like that!
Smack!
He Weinian was too angry, so he slapped He Wenxian hard.
“Why are you hitting Wenxian? She doesn’t know anything!” Google search ƒ𝔯ℯe𝘄𝐞𝐛𝒏𝐨ѵ𝘦𝒍. com
As soon as Madam He finished speaking, He Wenxian was slapped hard again.
He Weinian gritted his teeth and shouted, “I told you long ago not to provoke Qiao Xi. Why didn’t you listen?”
If it were not for these two idiots looking for trouble with Qiao Xi, how could her plan have gone so smoothly?
Actually, there was no need to appraise the necklace. He Weinian knew that the necklace must be real because Gu Zheng would not do anything he was not confident in.
When the test results were out, no matter how he explained it, no one would believe him. It would be difficult to protect Wenxian this time.
He took a deep breath tiredly. Why had he been scheming all these years? His son hated him, and his daughter’s reputation was ruined!
…
Two hours later, the results of the test were out. The necklace was indeed Scorching Heart. This matter caused another uproar online.
He Weinian’s report, He Tingchen’s framing, and the He family’s shocking revelation all told everyone that the theft of Scorching Heart was a conspiracy from the beginning.
After a long silence, he said helplessly, “Wenxian, go overseas and hide.”
He Wenxian shuddered, and her eyes instantly turned red. “Dad!”
Madam He was also stunned for a moment. “Hubby, you can’t chase Wenxian away. She was framed!”
He Weinian said coldly, “Who can prove that she was framed? As long as you can’t produce evidence, no one will believe you. The He family’s security system is so high that outsiders can’t enter our collection room at all. How will we explain why the necklace appeared there?”
“Then… Then let’s check the surveillance cameras and find the spy!”
“Since Gu Zheng can do this, he naturally won’t leave any evidence behind. You won’t be able to find anything!” He Weinian’s voice carried a strong warning. “Wenxian, if you’re unwilling to go overseas, you can only stay in the country and be scolded. Moreover, Gu Zheng won’t let you off.”
He Wenxian gritted her teeth, her heart filled with unwillingness.
Madam He also frowned. “Is there no other way? Gu Zheng is your student, after all. Would he harm Wenxian?”
He Weinian narrowed his eyes. He was sure that Gu Zheng would not kill Wenxian, but he would ruin the good reputation the He family had accumulated for many years!
At this moment, the He family’s reputation was damaged, and He Corporation was also affected. The two heirs of He Corporation were both in a predicament. Immediately after, someone online questioned the He family’s charity work all these years. Why was the amount of donations different from the original amount?
There were even people who claimed that the area the He family donated to had not seen any construction works because the funds were not enough. Problems came one after another, and He Weinian’s character was questioned.
The police and the charity department also received a report that they were investigating the He family’s charitable donations in recent years.
Qiao Xi sat in a restaurant and heard the people beside her discussing the He family.
“Could it be that the He family embezzled funds?”
“I heard that He Weinian never planned to sell Scorching Heart, so he stole it and slandered Gu Zheng. Unexpectedly, the matter was exposed, and the young master and young miss of the He family were implicated.”
“He Weinian has been doing charity since 28 years ago. I think he was sincere at first, but after he became famous and prestigious, he became more and more greedy. But why did he suddenly choose to do charity back then?”
