Mr Gu's First Doting Marriage

Chapter 895: Chapter 896: Gu Qichen Has Changed, Changed From His Bones Chapter 895: Chapter 896: Gu Qichen Has Changed, Changed From His Bones Xi Jiaxin raised an eyebrow, “Fine, then go talk to my lawyer. His name is He Yiliang, I believe you know him, truly an extraordinary lawyer with an iron bite and a steely jaw. Speaking of which, I really have to thank Mr. Gu for introducing such a good lawyer to my daughter.”

Xia Yangyang stood there, feeling as if a bolt of lightning had split her in two.

He Yiliang, the renowned Lawyer He, how could she not know him.

He was the gold-medal consulting lawyer for Shengyuan Group and could be said to be Gu QiChen’s personal lawyer.

He had a record that was famous around the world; over the years, he had never lost a case.

It was Lawyer He who helped Xi Jiaxin get acquitted.

This matter, Gu QiChen must have known about it.

Even, it might have been Lawyer He whom he had assigned…

Xia Yangyang could not accept that Gu QiChen had actually sided with Xi Jiaxin, helping him get acquitted.

No matter what, Xia Yangyang could not accept it.

Xia Yangyang was scolded by Xi Jiaxin and then left the office.

Gu Mingzhu had not come out yet.

Xia Yangyang sent a message to Gu Mingzhu and left first on her own.

Xia Yangyang went back to the hotel first.

She held her phone, hesitated for a long time, and finally dialed Gu QiChen’s mobile number.

Gu QiChen answered the phone, his voice cold, “Is there something you need?”

The truth was, her relationship with Gu QiChen was now thoroughly messed up.

Xia Yangyang set aside everything for the moment, just wanting to confirm one thing, “Gu QiChen, Xi Jiaxin has been released without charges. Did you know about this?”

Gu QiChen was silent on the other end for a long time before he finally spoke, “I knew.”

While Gu QiChen was silent, Xia Yangyang felt her heart sinking.

It kept sinking.

And when Gu QiChen finally spoke.

It plunged straight into an endless abyss.

“So, you knew about Lawyer He’s involvement too?”

Xia Yangyang really couldn’t believe it.

“I knew, but I found out about it later,” he said.

Xia Yangyang remained silent; what difference did it make?

Anyway, Gu QiChen had never mentioned it to her.

He had chosen to help Xi Zijun.

After all, Xi Zijun was a son and daughter, and no matter what Xi Zijun had done, Xia Yangyang could understand.

Blood is thicker than water, and everyone has their own stance.

But Gu QiChen standing by Xi Zijun’s side was something Xia Yangyang couldn’t understand and couldn’t tolerate.

“Yangyang, about this matter… I’m sorry.”

Xia Yangyang had thought Gu QiChen would offer more of an explanation.

But there wasn’t one. He simply said sorry.

It was this apology that made Xia Yangyang’s heart instantly feel dead.

“Gu QiChen, I’m so disappointed in you.”

Xia Yangyang hung up after she spoke.

After hanging up the phone, Xia Yangyang felt her limbs ice-cold.

She even couldn’t stop trembling slightly.

Gu QiChen quickly called back again.

Xia Yangyang didn’t answer and turned her phone off.

Xia Yangyang couldn’t describe what she was feeling at that moment.

That profound disappointment seemed to crush everything she had ever firmly believed in.

Gu QiChen actually helped Xi Zijun.

And her father was murdered, yet he helped the enemies get acquitted.

In Gu QiChen’s heart, wasn’t her father his family too?

Maybe he used to be, but not anymore.

These days, Xia Yangyang had been convincing herself to be more generous, thinking perhaps it was all just a hallucination of her own making.

But at least now Xia Yangyang understood, they were not hallucinations.

Gu QiChen had changed, changed from the inside out.
