Yu He and Cheng Lizhu returned to the living room, with Ye Zi trailing behind.
"Hey, bumpkin, are you an idiot? Why are you giving them money!" Ye Zizheng asked, his voice full of childish indignation.
His sharp eyes had seen Yu He stuffing a card into Granny Yu's hand!
The Ye family was bankrupt, and he himself could barely survive, yet she was still giving money to others, and even to the grandmother of someone who wanted to murder her.
One word: stupid!
Then there was the unknown qipao she was wearing. Ever since she came back, she had worn either school uniforms or these unknown qipaos. She didn't have a single new outfit. Their father used to be so biased.
Before, Ye Zisu's branded clothes were changed daily without repetition.
Now that the family was bankrupt, he didn't even have new clothes for himself, let alone her.
She was truly more miserable than him!
Yu He, unaware of his internal struggles, glanced at him and said, "It's none of your business."
"Hmph~" Ye Zizheng scoffed dismissively. "Who wants to manage you? Didn't I give you all my pocket money before? Here, this is me bestowing it upon you."
As he spoke, he tossed a bank card at Yu He with what he thought was a cool demeanor.
It contained the refund for the latest game console he had ordered a few days ago, fifty thousand yuan.
Who told her to be so stupid, and to be his own sister too.
He'd let her buy two sets of clothes with it. At worst, he could sell his two limited edition game consoles.
Yu He: "?"
Was she short of this little bit of pocket money?
"Zizheng, take the card back. Your pocket money isn't from your own earnings! Your sister doesn't need to share her living expenses with you. Even if I have to go out and do manual labor, I'll still support you!" Ye Jianming stood up and said.
Maybe it wasn't too late to try and win Yu He over now?
"You should focus on sorting out your mother's medical expenses first. We can't always rely on Chenchen."
Cheng Lizhu said, turning to Yu He and taking out the black card that hadn't been given out last time. "Hehe, this is for you, Mom saved it for you."
If her daughter wanted to spend, it should be her money, that felt right.
Ye Jianming: He was actually being looked down upon by his wife!
Yu He: "..."
"Mom, that's a supplementary card with a limit of five hundred thousand. Take it back," Ye Qichen said, stepping forward and handing Yu He a black card with a golden edge. "This is the primary card, with a limit of one million. Sister, take it and use it."
Girls should be raised with abundance. Even though the Ye family was bankrupt, they still had him.
He would make up for what the Ye family owed her before.
Yu He: "..."
This shouldn't be what the Ye family looked like after going bankrupt, right?
"Stop arguing." Qin Beiting took out a golden dragon-patterned card from his suit inner pocket and placed it on the coffee table. "Unlimited."
Ye Qichen and the others gasped when they saw the card.
Lu Yiming: "???"
What was going on?
Given the atmosphere, should he also take out a card?
But if Boss had already produced a global supreme limited unlimited card, his ordinary unlimited card would be pointless!
Yu He: "..."
Ye Zizheng: "..."
Sloppy, the clown was himself.
---
Gu Residence.
"It's been two days, and you still haven't found any results? What have you all been doing?!" Qin Meimei stormed into the monitoring room.
The monitoring room was spacious, with more than ten people, both men and women, engrossed in typing on their computers.
They were all hackers hired by the Gu family.
"Madam, we can only detect traces of hacker intrusion into the system. After the intrusion, they only restored the previously deleted surveillance videos. They did nothing else. The target was that video."
A purple-haired girl with twin ponytails, sitting at the front, said.
Qin Meimei: "Stop talking nonsense. What I want to know now is who did it!"
Because the video from the banquet was exposed by the media, it attracted the police's attention. Luo Xiaoyao and her mother's disappearance was officially investigated, and she became a suspect, summoned for questioning.
This caused the Gu family's stock to plummet for two consecutive days.
Not only that, but this incident also subtly conveyed a message: the Gu family's security system was easily breached.
This attracted malicious attacks from many hackers. Although none were successful, it caused a lot of trouble for the Gu family, requiring round-the-clock monitoring.
"The opponent's level is higher than ours, and they left no identifiable traces. However, we suspect this person."
The purple-haired girl said, turning her laptop screen towards Qin Meimei.
It was a surveillance video. The content showed that on the day of the banquet, in the backyard, Yu He did not leave the Gu residence. Instead, she followed a pig and went into the woods, not coming out for a long time.
When Yu He reappeared, it was when Ye Zisu was causing trouble.
Qin Meimei's eyes narrowed as she stared at Yu He's small figure in the video.
"She's here to cause you trouble." Yu He's words suddenly echoed in her mind.
Was it a coincidence?
Or did she really know about that incident back then?
But how could she, a country bumpkin, have the ability to infiltrate the Gu family's security system?
After all, the Gu family's security system had multiple layers of protection!
"Mom, it's bad! Grandpa fainted. Where is the immortal doctor you invited earlier? Quickly ask her to save Grandma."
At this moment, Gu Ze rushed over.
Old Master Gu's health was already poor, and he had been recuperating in a nursing home. The Gu family had deliberately concealed the banquet incident to prevent him from worrying.
However, Old Master Gu still saw the news online, and the shock caused him to faint.
After a doctor's rescue, his life was barely saved, but it couldn't be guaranteed when he would wake up.
Qin Meimei was already overwhelmed by the surveillance video and had forgotten about this matter.
The immortal doctor she had invited earlier was someone a wealthy wife had mentioned. She said there was a highly skilled immortal doctor who lived in seclusion in the mountains for many years. It had taken her two years to finally contact her.
She had specially invited her over the day before yesterday to treat Old Master Gu, thinking it would be a double blessing.
Unexpectedly, such a thing happened.
"Madam, Young Master, Miss Yu's maternal grandmother is the immortal doctor you invited," the maid who had received Granny Yu that day said.
"What?!"
Qin Meimei and Gu Ze were both shocked.
The identity of the immortal doctor had always been mysterious. After she went into seclusion in the mountains, her identity became even more so.
"I'll go to the Ye family right now and bring her here to treat Grandpa!" Gu Ze said, turning to grab the car keys.
"Stop!" Qin Meimei immediately called out to him. "Please find another doctor."
"Mom, Grandpa's life is more important right now!" Gu Ze thought Qin Meimei was concerned about saving face.
The Gu family had just severed all ties with the Ye family over the banquet incident. To go and ask for someone from the Ye family at this time would be telling everyone in Beishi that the Gu family was just a paper tiger, lacking authority.
But now, with a life at stake, he couldn't worry about saving face.
"Look for yourself." Qin Meimei, with a somber expression, handed him the text message she had just received.
It was Granny Yu's refusal of treatment:
[Mrs. Gu, your Gu family made my granddaughter unhappy. I will not treat your family's patient.]
This was not a refusal, this was clearly retaliation!
If the Gu family shamelessly went to ask for her again, they would be utterly debased!
