Chapter 1922: 1922. Gu Xia Extra Chapter (124)

When he found out that the bankruptcy of Xinma Corporation was actually related to his nephew, Xue Guochong was so angry that he nearly stormed into the Gu Family’s house and tore off the roof.

But he was self-aware and could only swallow his anger.

Not only did he have to swallow it, but he also had to put on a smile and apologize in person.

"Junhang, your mother is my sister. I can’t just tie her up, cut off her tongue and make her shut up. What do you want your uncle to do in order to spare him?" Xue Guochong’s tone became more urgent.

Little did he know that not only was Xinma in trouble, but now the domestic Xue Family Corporation was also in a precarious state. If it continued like this, they would be finished.

"Junhang, you know your uncle is innocent. The things your mother did weren’t instructed by your uncle. How could you hold him responsible for everything?"

Deep down, he was already furious, but he still had to speak softly and sweetly to Gu Junhang, asking for mercy.

Gu Junhang was sitting next to Xia Yumo. Compared to Xue Guochong’s anxious appearance, he appeared nonchalant. After listening to Xue Guochong, he said with a smile:

"Uncle, you can’t say that. It’s only because of my mom’s connections that the Xue Family is in the position it is today. The Gu Family helped you out, so it’s only right for you to take responsibility when it comes to trouble. You can’t only enjoy the good times and avoid responsibility in tough times, right?"

Gu Junhang’s face was smiling, but the bottom of his eyes was filled with endless danger.

Xue Guochong’s face twitched severely in response to Gu Junhang’s counter-question.

This nephew was really something, not giving him any face at all, saying whatever he wanted.

As he stared at Gu Junhang’s half-smiling lips, anger boiled inside him, but he could only force himself to put on a dry smile.

"Junhang, yes, you’re right. Your uncle cannot simply take advantage without taking responsibility."

With Xinma’s bankruptcy, it was impossible to rely on Gu Junhang’s power to revive it. Xue Guochong figured it was better to not argue about that and instead focus on keeping the Xue Family’s headquarters afloat.

"You see, your uncle’s enterprises in Xinma are all closed. It can be considered a lesson for your uncle and your mother. Can you spare your uncle this time... Your mom, your uncle guarantees to restrain her, okay?"

Gu Junhang looked at his tense smiling face, seemingly considering his request.

Xue Guochong stared back at him with an expectant expression. After a while, he finally heard Gu Junhang say:

"Well, I’ll take your word for it, uncle. I hope you can keep your promise."

Xue Guochong heaved a long sigh of relief, nodding his head,

"Alright, alright. Don’t worry, I’ll take care of your mother."

Now that the issue on their minds was resolved, the family of three in the Xue household felt relieved. Xue Yishan, who was daydreaming about a wealthy life, felt like she was a few steps closer to that dream.

She thought the glass slipper in her hand was already prepared, just waiting for a prince to put it on her foot.

With these thoughts in mind, she couldn’t help but snuggle closer to Xia Yumo.

Xia Yumo frowned slightly in repulsion, giving her a thoughtful glance.

Was Xue Yishan merely trying to please her for the sake of the Xue Family, or did she have other intentions?

Xia Yumo didn’t have a good impression of Xue Yishan, but the fact that so many of the Xue Family’s enterprises had collapsed was already a severe punishment for Xue Lan. Xia did not intend to pursue it further.

However, this didn’t mean she was willing to truly become friends or sisters-in-law with someone like Xue Yishan.
