Transmigration: The Cannon Fodder Suddenly Made a Comeback!
Chapter 842: Uncle Zhao?!

Chapter 842: Chapter 842: Uncle Zhao?!

But revealing is one thing, not making the old lady and the old man unable to save face is another, otherwise, she herself wouldn’t be able to protect herself.

So she thought of a compromise, without mentioning anything about the real Gu Yu, just proving that this fake Gu Yu is fake was enough.

As Gu Qiang spoke, she turned to Jiang Li, "Miss Jiang, you should know Aunt Zhao, right? After all, you filmed a program in that village for quite a while."

Jiang Li didn’t speak, but Aunt Zhao did.

"Yes, yes, I know her too, it’s the Jiang Li on TV, right? She filmed a program in our village for a month before."

Jiang Li’s visit today was unexpected, Gu Qiang had no idea and couldn’t have colluded with Aunt Zhao beforehand.

So this Aunt Zhao must undeniably be from Chixia Village.

The complexions of the Rong family members grew more complicated.

Could the Gu Yu before them really be an impostor?

Jiang Li glanced at Gu Qiang.

"Indeed, Aunt Zhao is indeed from Chixia Village, I’ve seen her, and even had meals at her home."

Originally, Gu Qiang thought she would be stubborn, but unexpectedly she directly acknowledged Aunt Zhao’s identity.

Making it unnecessary for her to take out the copy of Aunt Zhao’s ID card.

Gu Qiang felt a bit puzzled.

Wasn’t she supposed to be on Gu Yu’s side? Why is she helping her now?

Never mind, this girl may not be that smart, so if she can help her, wouldn’t that be for the better?

The old lady and Gu Shengrong exchanged a glance but still didn’t speak.

After a long time, the old lady finally spoke, "So? What does this mean?"

Her reaction was so normal, as if she had known everything all along.

It made Gu Qiang look as if she was making a fuss.

"It means—Mom, you’ve been deceived by this fraudster, he wants to swindle money from our family, he’s not the real Gu Yu!" Gu Qiang stated bluntly.

The old lady furrowed her brows, pondering something.

Zhao Lang finally spoke slowly.

"Aunt, you just found someone from some village to identify me as someone else and want to accuse me of being a fake Gu Yu, isn’t that a bit ridiculous?"

"Yes." Rong Junsheng also spoke up, glancing at the old lady, "Besides, it’s hard to verify whether what she’s saying is the truth."

His meaning was also clear.

After all, this old lady looks greedy, and Gu Qiang surely could make her comply with just a bit of money.

But Gu Qiang seemed to have expected them to say this, and calmly replied, "I know, so the first moment Aunt told me, I sent someone to verify it in that village, and actually found evidence."

As she spoke, she clapped her hands, "Bring him up."

The servant went out again, and after a while, returned with another person.

The moment Jiang Li saw the silhouette of that person, she was stunned, and when he fully stood in the room, even she was slightly surprised.

Gu Qiang actually found him too...

The person who came was none other than Uncle Zhao.

He looked no different from when he was in the village, but his clothes had changed, looking clean and neat, presumably not cheap.

It should be specially bought for him by Gu Qiang.

Compared to Aunt Zhao’s unease and bewilderment, Uncle Zhao had a calmness and composure that didn’t quite match his background.

His weathered yet resilient gaze swept the room before he withdrew it, slightly lowering his head.

Though the movement was quick, almost everyone saw his gaze pause on Zhao Lang.

Gu Qiang noticed this entirely, her lips curled slightly.

Jiang Li’s heart skipped a beat.

She thought Zhao Lang, after returning to the Gu family, would have settled Uncle Zhao well, but never expected Gu Qiang to find him.

Did he not arrange it properly, or was Gu Qiang too quick?

Zhao Lang’s expression revealed no reaction, but Jiang Li noticed his five fingertips on the armrest tighten slightly, as if trying to restrain something fiercely.

Jiang Li pondered for a moment, then raised her hand gently resting it on his hand.

The cool touch quickly spread throughout Zhao Lang’s arm.

He trembled slightly out of control, then looked at Jiang Li in surprise.

Jiang Li smiled slightly, mouthed the words "don’t worry."

Zhao Lang’s tense expression finally eased a bit, a vague smile emerging from his brows.

As Jiang Li was about to withdraw her hand, he grasped her fingertips instead.

Jiang Li wobbled, frowning at him, trying to pull her hand back.

But how could Zhao Lang just let her go like that, his grip only tightened, eventually enveloping her entire hand in his large, warm palm.

He also mouthed back to her—"You can’t escape."

Jiang Li: "..."

Scoundrel!

Jiang Li gave up after several tries.

More than this, she was concerned about the current situation.

"What’s going on?" she whispered, "Why is Uncle Zhao here? Didn’t you have it arranged?"

Zhao Lang whispered back, "It was arranged before, but..."

But recently, the person taking care of Uncle Zhao told him that he couldn’t stop him and that Uncle Zhao ran back to Chixia Village secretly.

Lately, he was too busy and just sent two people to follow up and didn’t pay further attention.

He thought Uncle Zhao just missed home and went back for a look, not expecting Gu Qiang to exploit it.

If she did anything to Uncle Zhao—

A cold gleam flashed fleetingly in Zhao Lang’s eyes.

Calm and murderous.

At this moment, he truly harbored the intention to eliminate Gu Qiang.

Zhao Lang’s tone was very calm, seemingly without reaction, but Jiang Li clearly felt his palm become slightly warm and damp.

She couldn’t help but be curious.

What was he worried about?

Was it Uncle Zhao’s situation, or the worry that he would identify him?

Their movements were small, everyone’s attention was on the two newcomers in the dining room, and didn’t notice their interaction.

Gu Qiang was even more focused on the newly arrived Uncle Zhao.

She walked over, looked at the person following Uncle Zhao, then at Uncle Zhao, smiling slightly, pointed at Zhao Lang—

"Look at who that is?"

Finding Uncle Zhao was, in fact, beyond Gu Qiang’s expectations.

She originally thought that since Zhao Lang dared to impersonate so boldly, he must have arranged his family well.

But unexpectedly, while she was having someone investigate, Uncle Zhao suddenly appeared in Chixia Village.

He seemed to have returned home to pay respects at the ancestral grave.

How could Gu Qiang let this chance go?

She immediately sent someone to bring him back.

Uncle Zhao was initially uncooperative, but later she moved him with emotion and reason, and with some other means, she finally got him to admit that the current Gu Yu is Zhao Lang—his own son.
