However, Qi Lei did not plan on speaking up. He was just going to wait and see how this panned out.

Gu Qiwu fell silent as he met with Li Si’s gaze and was about to say something when Gu Lingsha suddenly said coldly in a low voice, “Gu Qiwu, you’d better think this through!”

Doris was actually quite clear about the intentions behind playing this video.

If Gu Qiwu dared to admit his relationship with Mu Zi right now, it would mean that he had abandoned her, and Doris was the third party that had interfered with their relationship because everyone was all clear about how Mu Lingtian had indeed been born before she had gotten together with Gu Qiwu. That was Mu Zi’s secret behind her reason for leaving the entertainment industry years ago.

At that very moment, Doris had to admit that even though Mu Yuchen had done it in a rather despicable manner, the effect was palpable. The crowd began to discuss, and clearly, their fingers were pointing the blame on her and Gu Qiwu.

Mu Zi had become the pitiful, abandoned woman while Gu Qiwu had become a cheater and Doris was the third party that had swooped in and stolen him away.

Who was Mu Zi? What right did she have to fight for the same man?

Doris had always been prideful. Obviously, she knew Mu Zi before this, but she had not acknowledged her at all!

When it came to looks, she had always thought that she surpassed Mu Zi. As for their background, there was nothing to even compare. After all, Doris was royalty whereas her father and brothers all had high statuses. Compared to Mu Zi, she was clearly victorious!

In fact, all these years, numerous men have fallen for her charm, and Gu Qiwu was no different.

“Tell them that person isn’t you!” Doris said with a commanding tone that did not allow Gu Qiwu to reject her!

“Father, tell them that the person can’t be you! They’re just here to crash the occasion! Father, tell them!” Gu Lingsha’s eyes were filled with concern and uneasiness at this moment as she quickly looked at Gu Qiwu and pleaded nervously.

“Someone, please escort them out. If you’re here to congratulate us, then welcome, but since you’re here just to crash the event, then please make your way out!” Qi Feng’s raspy voice possessed a hint of hostility to it. To emphasize his point, a few men in black came up to them.

“They’re just here to ask about a small matter. What are you so worried for? People will think that was really Uncle Gu. Uncle Gu, if it wasn’t you, please explain it to everyone. They’re all waiting for you to continue eating!” Qi Le’s demonic voice came through.

Without objecting, Qi Qiming silently watched this scene before him because he wanted to know what all of this was about too!

“Miss Mu Zi has waited over 30 years for this explanation, and so has the Mu family. There’s also Master Mu Lingtian, who has passed on, and Miss Mu Lingshi. They’ve waited for many years now! When you’ve all been living a jolly good life, have you ever thought of them? I think that everyone has been kept guessing when the news of Miss Mu Zi’s fall to her death broke, and Elder Madam Mu just passed away a few days ago. All of these tragedies revolve around this man. If you were bold enough to do it, why won’t you be bold enough to admit it?” Li Si smiled at Gu Qiwu, his tone saturated with a hint of disdain.

“Assistant Li, you need to have evidence when it comes to the things you say. It’s best if you don’t speak off the cuff! Our boss and madam have always been a loving couple. They’re very much in love. Your words are clearly meant to drive a wedge between them so that we won’t doubt you or suspect Chairman Mu’s intentions!”

Ah Yong noticed that the situation was not right, he looked coldly at Li Si and spoke out too.

Li Si slowly took out a document from the folder that a bodyguard held, and he waved it. “Mr. Gu, don’t you think so too?”

“Morrison, get them out of here!” A dark light flashed in Qi Feng’s eyes as all his worries became even more prominent.

“Don’t you want to see what this document says, Mr. Gu?”

The bodyguards beside Li Si went up too to stop the security detail.

Gu Qiwu’s expression became even more stern and cold as he fixed his gaze on Li Si. If that gaze could kill, Li Si probably would have died quite a few times by now.

Meanwhile, Doris and Gu Lingsha stared coldly at Gu Qiwu too.

The entire banquet hall instantly became silent, stifled, and uneasy. The crowd that had still been whispering before this had all stopped talking as they watched the people on stage.

Even Qi Lei could feel that indescribable feeling of suffocation and see the struggle on Gu Qiwu’s face.

While Doris pursed her lips, you could see the anger in her beautiful eyes. Despite seeing Gu Qiwu’s swollen face following her slap, the fury in her heart did not reduce one bit. She turned to her side and said softly by Gu Qiwu’s ear, “If you want to walk the path to your own doom, then admit to it! I’ll never forgive you!”

Gu Qiwu’s eyes darkened. After a momentary silence, he signaled to Ah Yong who understood and took the document to hand to Gu Qiwu. To everyone’s horror, Gu Qiwu did not even look at it before he burned it…

“Tell Mu Yuchen to talk to me by himself. I know that he’s got a huge prejudice against me, but I think he’s underestimated me by using such tricks. The Mus and the Gus’ relationship have long been strained. Mu Zi and I…at most, we were just friends. I don’t know what’s the meaning of all this, so it’s best if you let him speak to me himself.”

Gu Qiwu had calmed down now. His gloomy expression earlier was now replaced with helplessness mixed with feigned innocence.

Bam!

Ka ka!

Right at this moment, Gu Qiwu had not finished when the door was suddenly flung open and the crowd immediately looked towards it.

A slender figure suddenly appeared at the door.

Dressed in loose, casual clothes as her beautiful hair fell on her shoulders, she wore large-framed spectacles and looked quite pale. Nonetheless, she was indeed a beauty. She just looked a little wan and sallow and seemed quite fatigued.

Who else could it be but Mu Lingshi?

She stood quietly at the wide-open door, her hands still positioned in the way as when she had opened the door. Slowly, she looked up and then her cool gaze looked towards Gu Qiwu.
