Chapter 197: The Cheng Family's Peril
eng Keixin had already started eating, also ate up with urgency. 。Both of them hadn't sat down for a proper meal in three days, so this meal was eaten very deliciously. 。If you ignore the discomfort i...Cheng Luo leaned against his Land Rover, looked up at Su Kexin and said, "Get in the car, I'll take you back." 。“ It shouldn't get too close to people who are enemies with Gu Zhi, but for some reason, Su Kexin didn't dislike Cheng Luo, and even had a kind of indescribable sense of intimacy, so she agreed 。She also had many questions about Cheng Luo in her heart. She wanted to know some things, perhaps Cheng Luo could 。Thinking about this, she nodded. Cheng Luo quickly opened the car door and gentlemanly let Su KeXin get in. 。After sitting down, Cheng Luo quickly started the car. 。On the way, Cheng Luo said: "Su Ke Xin, I never expected you to be Aunt Su's daughter." 。“Yes, I didn’t expect my mom to know you either,” 。"It seems we're destined to meet." 。Cheng Lu looked at Su Keixin meaningfully. 。He found that Su Kexin's profile was more beautiful than her front view. 。Cheng Luo turned his head to look at the road ahead, a red light, and the cars came to a stop. 。Cheng Luo suddenly said, "When I was a child, Fen Yi treated me very well and was very kind to me" 。It's a pity... our fate was too shallow. 。To my surprise, I was able to see her again today. 。"My mom told me, and she also said a lot of things about my childhood. " 。" Was that naughty Su Kexin replied, "No, my mother kept praising you for being sensible and smart. She really likes you, and... Ruoruo" 。Su Ke Xin thought Cheng Luo would talk about some past events of Cheng Ruo, but he didn't 。Cheng Luo seemed more interested in Su Ke Xin, asking: "Aunt Meng, where were you when you worked as a nanny in our family I've never seen you once." "Living in the Lin family villa..." 。"Su Kexin explained, "Mom said this family doesn't like outsiders staying, so there was no way, she sent me to the Lin family villa." 。"
Sorry 。"Why"Cheng Luo sincerely said to her, "If it weren't for us, maybe you wouldn't have to live in the Lin family villa. I know a little about the Lin family, and they probably wouldn't treat you very well, would they" 。“You were just a child back then too, forget about it, it's all in the past.” 。“Su Ke Xin has started to let go of the past, “After all, what my stepmother did, Gu Chi has already punished them severely for me, so I don't hate them anymore.” 。"
It's fine not to mention Gu Chi, but when it comes to Gu Chi, Cheng Luo's nerves immediately start to heat up. " 。Cheng Luo said stiffly, "Does Gu Chi do this for you or for someone else Who can know that Don't be so naive and think of him as perfect. He's just a hypocrite!"Su Ke Xin didn't like anyone speaking ill of Gu Chi in front of her, not even a word. 。Su Keqin frowned, "Cheng Luo, don't get so excited every time you mention Gu Chi, okay Do you really understand the whole thing that year Maybe it's not what you think. " 。“Every time you protect Gu Chi, you’re so stupid!” Cheng Luo also said mercilessly, “I’ve never seen a woman as stubborn as you, stupid! Stupid to the extreme!” Su Ke Xin felt that continuing this conversation would only result in mutual harm, it wasn't worth it at all. 。She could only coldly replied, "Cheng Luo, let me out of the car. I want to walk back myself." 。Cheng Luo smelled the ominous air in the car, Su Kexin must have misunderstood him. 。Actually, he wasn't targeting her. 。 Cheng Luo said, “Don’t misunderstand me, I don’t hate you. The only person I hate is Gu Chi.” 。"You might have misunderstood Gu Chi, really. Back then, didn't the Cheng family investigate carefully" Su Ke Xin felt awkward and said. Cheng Luo remained silent for a while, and Su Ke Xin did not ask further. 。Suddenly, Cheng Luo said: "At that time, the Cheng family was actually in a difficult period and didn't have much energy to investigate this matter. " 。"
Su Ke Xin was very surprised, that even the Cheng family of the three major families would have a difficult time
Cheng Luo didn't elaborate on the difficult times of the Cheng family back then, maybe he found it hard to talk about. " 。Su Ke Xin returned to the magazine. 。I don't know why, but I'm a little bothered by Cheng Luo's words and want to figure out what's going on. 。Su Ke Xin remembered Zheng Jie coming to the magazine office for the longest time, maybe she could know some things about the grievances between Cheng's family back then. 。Sister Zheng recalled it and then flipped through her old diary, answering Su Kexin's question. 。Sister Zheng said, "Ten years ago, the Cheng family encountered an unprecedented business crisis. Several large financial groups from outside provinces were putting pressure on the Cheng Group, and they were about to be acquired by financial groups from other cities. It was really close to the point of no return, and the empire was in danger." 。Sister Zheng also said: “I remember that this incident back then was quite a sensation because the three major families in City S were intertwined, sharing prosperity and loss.” 。This crisis also alarmed the people of the Ji and Gu families, but instead of coming to the rescue, they adopted a wait-and-see attitude. 。"They didn't help the Cheng family, did they They've always been close friends for generations, haven't they" "Yeah, they definitely would have come to their rescue." 。But that year coincided with the world economic crisis, and both families were not doing well, so they could only temporarily watch and wait. They also did not want the Cheng family to be acquired. 。Su Keixin listened attentively to the whole story. 。"That's not all," 。"Is there more" Su Ke Xin asked. 。This has nothing to do with the company being pressured into a merger. 。"Cheng Jie said: 'But, Cheng Ruoer happened to be kidnapped and disappeared at this critical moment. You say, isn't this adding insult to injury for the Cheng family What else could it be'It turned out that behind the kidnapping case from back then, there were still some factors influencing... " 。Su Keqin thought to herself 。Sister Zheng said, "Because back then, Cheng Ruor and Gu Chi..." She hesitated for a moment, unsure whether she should tell Su Kexin about the kidnapping incident that year and was momentarily at a loss for words. 。Su Kexin said, "Zheng Jie, it's okay, you can tell me. " 。 。" Zheng Jie felt relieved and continued, "Thankfully, the Gu family came to our aid at that time. Although Cheng Ruoer died in the fire, the Cheng Corporation unexpectedly received a lot of help from the Gu family because of this kidnapping incident. This helped them overcome the crisis." 。Otherwise, the Cheng family would probably truly be in decline now. 。“
Yeah 。The Cheng family is now viewed negatively by the outside world and considered to be on its way out. 。However, Su Kexin had a premonition that as long as Cheng Luo could manage well, the day when the Cheng family would regain its former glory was just around the corner. 。"Back then, it must have been Gu Yu Feng who helped him, right" Su Ke Xin said. She felt that her grandfather must have been a prominent figure in the business world back then. 。But, Zheng Jie shook her head, denying Su Kexin's idea. 。 Zheng Jie said, “You guessed wrong, Su Ke Xin. It wasn't Master Gu who came to the rescue. He was so worried about Gu Chi being kidnapped that he fell ill at the time. Where would he have the energy to save Cheng Jia” 。" That's..." Zheng Jie said, "It's Gu Xiao, Gu Chi's elder brother." 。" wounds, the piece of her heart that had been firmly stitched shut with hardness began to leak out.Cheng Keixin's heart was suddenly thrown into disarray by Gu Chi.Originally, Cheng Ke Xin wanted to s...
