Chapter 232 The Gu Family's Reputation
At his desk, Gu Cheng looked at the bag of things on it with a puzzled expression. He had just started work today, and the security guard had brought it to him.
He opened the bag and found several invoices. They were all for Li Meng to pay off debts. Gu Cheng grew angrier the more he looked. This woman had unknowingly lost so much money. After reviewing the documents, he saw two photos at the very end. Gu Cheng stared intently at the two people embracing in the photos, because he knew that woman all too well. This shameless woman dared to cheat on him! How despicable!
Losing so much money and keeping a gigolo, Li Meng, Li Meng, don't blame him for not caring about your relationship as husband and wife.
Gu Cheng immediately asked for leave, skipping work, and had his driver take him home.
Each time he returned home, the house was empty. He knew Yun Le was in training recently, and that kid was doing alright. He wondered where Yun Huan had run off to again. As for that bitch Li Meng, she was indeed not home at this time.
He had worked hard all his life, only to end up with this wife and home. He couldn't help but regret why he had married Li Meng back then. If he had married Yanxia instead, his family wouldn't be in this state now.
The thought of Li Meng filled him with rage, and he shouted, "Ah Zhong, take two men to Jinluyuan and bring Madam back!"
When Ah Zhong saw the fierce look on his master's face, he knew that his wife had angered him greatly this time, so he quickly took two of his master's bodyguards to bring the person back.
Jinluyuan is a place exclusively for the wealthy to have fun; it's open both day and night. When Ah Zhong and his group arrived, Li Meng was playing cards with her friends.
Upon seeing Ah Zhong, she was first surprised, then immediately panicked. How did he find this place? Gu Cheng! Did he know something? She pretended to be very calm. She said to the others, "Let's stop playing here for today. I have something to do at home. I'll play with you another day."
After saying that, she left her seat and went out with Ah Zhong and the others, but then she stopped and said to Ah Zhong, "You guys wait here, I'm going to the restroom."
The restroom was not far ahead, and Ah Zhong and the others waited outside.
As soon as Li Meng entered, she locked the door and took out her phone from her bag to call Yun Huan: "Huanhuan, where are you? Are you home?"
"Mom, I'm outside. What do you need?"
"Huanhuan, hurry home! Your dad found out I was gambling, and he won't let me off easily this time. Hurry home and save Mom!"
"Okay, I understand. I'll go back now. Mom, try to wait until Yunle and I get back before you come home."
"Mom understands, come back soon."
After hanging up on Yun Huan, he called Yun Le and gave her the same answer, telling her to go back.
Yunle was in training, but halfway through the class, she thought it wouldn't be good if her mother got involved with her father, so she packed her things and went home.
Li Meng lingered in the bathroom for a long time before finally agreeing to come out. She guessed that her two daughters should be home soon.
So he and Ah Zhong went home.
Gu Cheng waited and waited at home, but Li Meng still hadn't returned. Moreover, he realized that someone had given him the document that morning. If it was a colleague he usually worked with, did that mean that person was warning him behind his back? Or was it someone who knew about Li Meng's behavior and disapproved of her actions, secretly telling him this in this way? He couldn't figure out who was helping him or harming him this time.
He was clean in his official duties, never sought special treatment or accepted bribes, and made no mistakes in his career. He didn't know where he had offended anyone. The only explanation was that Li Meng might have offended someone outside, and someone wanted to retaliate against her. This woman was always causing him trouble, and he would not let her off easily this time.
Li Meng prayed silently that the car would drive slowly, so that her two daughters could help her at home. She didn't know how much Gu Cheng knew about her, or if he had just called her back because of something at home.
Li Meng ran into Yun Huan and Yun Le at the entrance of the compound, and all three of them breathed a sigh of relief.
Yunle wondered what her father was going to do next, or if he had found out about her mother's gambling. But no matter what, she had to protect her mother. With her mother around, they could take care of the family and things would be stable.
The mother and her two daughters entered the house with trepidation. Sister-in-law Aqin was very worried, but she felt a little relieved when she saw that the two young ladies had also returned.
As soon as the three entered the room, they saw Gu Cheng sitting there coldly. The cold aura emanating from him made them afraid to approach. His expression was serious, and Li Meng felt even worse. This was a sign that he was about to become enraged.
The three of them looked at each other and said they didn't dare to walk up to Gu Cheng.
"Yun Huan, Yun Le, go upstairs!" Gu Cheng shouted.
Yun Huan, being a bit bolder, said, "Dad, I'm thirsty, I'm going to the kitchen to get some water."
"Go upstairs, don't make me say it a third time!" Gu Cheng's face darkened even more.
Yun Huan and Yun Le were already scared, and could only hope that their mother would have a good time.
After his two daughters went upstairs, Gu Cheng slowly walked up to Li Meng and suddenly kicked her, knocking her to the ground.
"Gu Cheng, you bastard, you hit me again!" Li Meng clutched her chest. She had almost vomited blood and died from Gu Cheng's kick. It was clear how ruthless this man was.
"I should beat you, I should beat you to death. Don't think I don't know what you've done." Gu Cheng said viciously. He felt disgusted just looking at this woman's face. Why did he ever marry her and have a child with her? It was disgusting!
“What have I done? I’ve worked hard to manage the household, given you two daughters, and used my family’s connections to help you rise to your current position step by step. What have I done wrong!”
"You won't shed a tear until you see the coffin! What are these?!" Gu Cheng threw Li Meng's gambling debts and photos of her keeping a gigolo at her.
Li Meng picked it up and examined it closely. Her face turned pale instantly, especially when she saw the two photos. She was stunned for a long time before she trembled and asked, "How did you get these? Who gave them to you?"
"Heh, now you know why I hit you! I don't care about your years of squandering money, nor do I care about you raising our two daughters badly, but now you dare to cheat on me. Do you want to die?"
“You accuse me of cheating on you, but what about you? You haven’t had marital relations with me for a year. I’m only in my early forties, and this is how you treat me. Don’t think I don’t know you’re having an affair.”
“Even if I’m keeping a mistress, it’s my own money. But you’re using my money to gamble and keep a gigolo. If word got out in the compound, you’d still be able to walk out of there. You have no shame or remorse at all. You’re hopeless.”
"Haha, I know you don't like me, you even hate me, but what can you do? I used all sorts of tricks to hide Xu Yanxia's letters back then, and even after you found out, you still married me. Even if you know I abused Yun Shu, you still didn't dare to do anything to me."
"Hehe, things are different now. Military marriages are protected by the state. I've had enough of you keeping a gambler and a gigolo. Let's end our marriage here and go get a divorce tomorrow."
