CHAPTER 1072: CHAPTER 1074: THE GU FAMILY IS DEFEATED

"I like it. Let’s build it like this." Jiang Wanru immediately took a liking to it and said, "One for us, one for Xiaolie, one for Xiaoyan, and one for Nianhua."

"Mom, I want to live with you." Xu Nianhua quickly chimed in, smiling playfully, "I want to spend more time with you all."

"Alright, you can stay with us. The second floor will be all yours." Jiang Wanru was especially fond of the closeness with Xu Nianhua. She had missed so much time already and wished she could see her daughter twenty-four hours a day.

"Okay."

With a smile, Xu Nianhua joined the others in discussing how to build the house, aiming to finalize the blueprint, start construction soon, and hopefully celebrate the lunar new year in the new home.

Amidst the harmonious atmosphere, the phone rang.

Su Lie, who was closest to the phone, picked it up. Realizing it was Xu Nianhua’s elder brother, he said, "Hold on a moment."

"Nianhua, it’s a call from your big brother."

"My big brother?"

Xu Nianhua looked at Su Lie puzzled and worriedly asked, "Big brother, what’s wrong? Is something going on at home?"

It was nighttime!

"Don’t worry, everything is fine at home." Xu Nianji, noticing her concerned tone, quickly reassured her, "I haven’t gotten home yet and thought you’d probably be there. So, I called you on purpose."

"Is there really nothing wrong at home?" Xu Nianhua was half-skeptical.

Xu Nianji affirmed, "We are all fine, really, no problems. I called to tell you that Gu Mingzhu is being forced by Gu Hai to get married. I heard the guy is very fat and really ugly!"

"Ah..." Xu Nianhua asked in surprise, "That can’t be true."

Gu Mingzhu has always been the cherished jewel of the Gu Family, and Gu Hai couldn’t pamper her enough. How could he force her to marry someone?

Besides, Gu Mingzhu is talented in business; she had helped Gu Hai significantly in the past life. In times of trouble for the Gu Family now, Gu Mingzhu must have contributed a lot, right?

"It’s true, no doubt about it!" Xu Nianji spoke decisively, "I heard that Gu Mingzhu is unwilling, and Gu Hai is indeed forcing her. It seems the guy is pretty wealthy, which has caused quite an uproar in the Gu Family. Also, the Gu family textile factory is almost gone."

"Oh, and it appears Gu Mingzhu is linked to a murder case, but in the end, it was Fang Yue who got arrested. I’m sure it was Gu Mingzhu behind it, but Fang Yue took the fall." Xu Nianji recalled how the Gu Family once harmed and bullied his little sister; when he believed the Gu Family were his sister’s relatives, he held a grudge. How could people who don’t even treat their daughter as a person lead such a good life?

Fortunately, there was preparation last time; otherwise, his little sister would have been a tragic victim.

Now, with the Gu Family’s downfall, Xu Nianji was naturally delighted.

"The Gu Family is really falling apart," Xu Nianhua expressed with deep emotion. Once, the Gu Family seemed like an unmovable mountain in her eyes, but now, that mountain has crumbled.

Hearing about the Gu Family, Su Lie raised an eyebrow, thinking to himself: How is it enough that the Gu Family only fails? They haven’t been punished yet!

They planned to kidnap Nianhua and even tried to find someone to defile his little sister?

Luckily, they didn’t succeed, otherwise, he would have had murderous intentions. This was just an appetizer; the Gu Family’s hard times were still ahead.

"Exactly." Xu Nianji said happily, "Little sister, I think they’ve simply done too much evil; even the heavens can’t bear it."

"Big brother, do you have anything else to tell me?" Xu Nianhua listened to her big brother’s roundabout talk and asked confidently.
