Chapter 327: The Wrath of Gu Chen

Upon hearing that her father Ji Guangsheng had been so enraged that he vomited blood and was hospitalized, and even the family’s factories had been shut down so extensively,

Ji Pianran couldn’t help but feel an urgent panic.

"Mom, wait for me, I’ll buy a plane ticket and go back to Chuan City right now!"

However, as soon as she said this, Wu Shuhui got startled and hurriedly advised over the phone.

"You must not act impulsively. Your father’s health is fine; it’s just his old ailment acting up. But you must not come back now. If you come to Chuan City at this time, wouldn’t that be falling right into Xu Qingmu’s trap? While you are in Haicheng, the Xu Family can’t reach you.

"If you come back now, wouldn’t it be playing right into the Xu Family’s hands? Xu Qingmu would be able to track your whereabouts without any effort. Pian Ran, you must stay calm!"

Wu Shuhui’s tone became more and more serious as she spoke.

After all, her husband was now hospitalized; if her daughter were to have any mishap,

she truly wouldn’t be able to go on living.

Thinking of this, she quickly continued to explain over the phone, "Although our Ji Family has been greatly weakened by this incident, your dad said that our Ji family has been operating in Chuan City for generations, and our influence is deep-rooted.

"If it weren’t for Ji Changming, that treacherous wretch, catching us off guard with his plot, with Xu Qingmu’s dirty tricks, he wouldn’t have been a threat to us at all. Daughter, you must not come back at this time."

"Xu Qingmu might be doing this precisely to force you to show up. Stay in Haicheng with Gu Chen and don’t worry. Once your dad’s health improves a bit, our Ji Family won’t collapse."

Her daughter had finally been recovered after being lost, and she and Ji Guangsheng would protect her at all costs, even if it meant risking their own lives!

After hearing her mother’s words, Ji Pianran’s face turned extremely grim.

She was worried about her father Ji Guangsheng’s health, and she always believed that it was the trouble she had caused by running away from her wedding years ago.

If it hadn’t been for that, Xu Qingmu wouldn’t have targeted the Ji Family so ruthlessly.

But Ji Pianran also understood that her mother could not express her difficulties, and even if she really did return to Chuan City now,

she would only add to the chaos and wouldn’t be of help with anything else.

After all, their Ji Family was not like the Xu Family; though Xu Qingmu was also quite young,

he had been established as the legitimate heir of the family from childhood.

Moreover, for many years, the Xu Family had been tirelessly grooming him, continuously paving the way for his rise to power.

With his own extraordinary abilities, he had managed to legitimately take charge of the entire family’s affairs before even turning thirty.

Meanwhile, Ji Pianran had been away from the Ji Family for many years, and even if she were to take over the family business now,

others might not accept her as the young mistress who suddenly appeared out of nowhere.

Furthermore, she had neither influence nor accomplishments.

Without her father Ji Guangsheng’s help, gaining the respect of the people was utterly impossible.

Therefore, she could only reassure her mother, hoping that her mother wouldn’t worry too much and that she would take good care of herself.

Listening to her daughter’s sensible words, Wu Shuhui finally felt a slight relief in her heart.

She advised earnestly, "Good child, Mom believes that you can handle it well. All I hope is that you take extra care of yourself in Haicheng, do you understand?"

When Ji Pianran heard these words, her nose immediately tingled with sorrow, and she couldn’t stop her tears from flowing, "Okay, mom, rest assured, I know what to do."

After saying this, Ji Pianran quickly hung up the phone, fearing that her mother would sense her weakness.

It wasn’t until noon that Gu Chen finally returned home from the busy clothing store. He pushed open the door with a cheerful smile and caught sight of Ji Pianran the moment he entered.

At that moment, she was curled up foolishly on the sofa in the living room.

The eyes that were once as captivating as sparkling autumn waters were now somewhat red from crying too much.

Gu Chen was startled and hurried forward to ask what had happened.

Upon seeing Gu Chen, the emotions Ji Pianran had been suppressing burst out almost to the point of collapse.

She threw herself into his arms, crying like a child.

"Dad, my dad... Xu Qingmu, that son of a bitch..."

Her words were incoherent, spoken intermittently.

However, from his wife’s fragmented narrative, Gu Chen still managed to understand the cause and effect of the incident.

Thinking of his father-in-law, who had been jovial with him just a few days ago and was now angered to the point of being bedridden and immobile, fired up Gu Chen’s anger beyond containment.

Especially seeing his dearest woman so distressed right now.

It was as if Gu Chen’s heart was being sliced by a knife.

He held his wife in his arms, gently stroking her spine with his hand.

At the same time, he kept comforting her in a soft voice.

"It’s okay, Pian Ran, stop crying, stop crying. Leave this matter to me to deal with. Whether it’s you or your parents, I will not allow anyone to harm you. Believe in me, Pian Ran, I will certainly make the Xu Family pay for this!"

Xu Qingmu, such a despicable person, first forced Ji Pianran to marry him and then repeatedly persecuted her father.

If he wasn’t taught a lesson, he’d really not understand how high the sky is or how thick the earth is!

This was the first time Gu Chen had been so angry.

Ji Pianran lifted her face, which was tear-streaked like rain on pear blossoms, and could not help but sob softly.

"But, but Mom has already instructed me in advance, asking us not to reveal too much information. And now both of us are far away in Haicheng, what can you do against the Xu Family, Gu Chen? Don’t underestimate the opponent; Xu Qingmu’s influence in Chuan City is also very significant."

She was worried about her dad and also worried about Gu Chen. Xu Qingmu was truly ruthless and brutal.

He was capable of anything!

Hearing the words of the woman in his arms, Gu Chen slightly narrowed his profound eyes.

"Don’t worry, Pian Ran, I am very aware of my current strength, but if I really want to deal with him, it’s not like there are absolutely no ways."

"What ways? Tell me quickly."

In front of Gu Chen, she always involuntarily showed that dependent look.

But feeling the strong self-confidence in Gu Chen’s words at the moment, Ji Pianran also couldn’t help feeling anxious.

Because she was well aware of the seriousness of this issue.

Both her father, Ji Guangsheng, and her husband, Gu Chen, were the most important men in her life.

She really didn’t want to see anyone else get into an accident.

Seeing her reaction, Gu Chen couldn’t help but smile, shake his head, and then whispered in her ear.

"I still need to do some testing on this plan right now. Pian Ran, later you contact the family and tell Mom to have Butler Uncle Guang come over, but make sure the process is confidential and don’t let anyone trace his movements."

At this moment, the Ji Pianran nestled in his arms looked somewhat dazedly at the man in front of her; she had never seen Gu Chen so serious before.

But seeing her reaction, Gu Chen couldn’t help but reach out to caress her cheek, smiling as he said.

"Pian Ran, be a good girl, go on."

Ji Pianran wiped the tears from her face. Her Gu Chen always managed to work miracles. With the way he spoke now, he must have a plan. Without further delay, she quickly picked up the phone from the table and dialed out.
