The Fall of the Dark Family - Chapter Thirty-One: Xiaohui's Choice and Her Mother's Phone Call

"What did you say...? The account holder is Wenxing?! How is that possible!" Liu Guopei could hardly believe Xiaohui's words, because this was no longer just speculation like Xiaohui had in the morning; this time there was evidence! If the account holder really was Sun Wenxing, then it meant that the person hiding behind the scenes who betrayed the company could only be him!
"Mr. Liu... Mr. Liu... Actually, it's not just you, even I can't believe it! But... but Manager Zhang's friend at the bank checked several times and is very certain that the account holder is... is... Manager Sun..." Xiao Hui's face was also very upset. Sun Wenxing had always treated her like a brother. If it weren't for the irrefutable evidence, Xiao Hui wouldn't have believed that he would betray the company.
"...Wenxing is still at the Xicheng base, right?... " Liu Guopei sat blankly in his office chair. To be honest, the news about Xiaohui was a huge blow to him. He never imagined that his brother, with whom he had built the business for so many years, would betray him! Is there anyone in this world who can be trusted? Anyone would find it hard to accept!
"Yes...yes, Mr. Liu...Mr. Liu...what...what should we do...?" Xiao Hui asked subconsciously.
"Hehe... What should I do? I don't know either... Xiao Hui... You go down first, I'll call you if anything happens!" Was he really going to turn against his good brother of many years? Liu Guopei knew he couldn't do that. If it weren't for Sun Wenxing, he wouldn't have achieved what he had today! Liu Guopei just wanted some peace and quiet; he didn't want to worry about anything else.
Xiao Hui sighed. She was feeling terrible, let alone Liu Guopei, who had started the business with Sun Wenxing! She had been by Liu Guopei's side for several years, and this was the first time she had seen him so depressed. Seeing him sitting in the chair, looking blank and dazed, Xiao Hui felt really sad, but unfortunately, she couldn't help him. She could only respond and then turn and walk towards the door.
Could it be... could it really be that I have to do it? The moment Xiaohui stepped out of Liu Guopei's office, the thought of that matter that had been troubling her for the past few days came back to her...
Thinking...thinking...Xiao Hui slowly made up her mind...! She didn't want to see Liu Guopei depressed and sad...no matter the cost...she had to help this man who had been deeply imprinted in her heart that summer...even if...even if it meant...
Five years ago, two young men, fresh out of university, embarked on an entrepreneurial journey from scratch, driven by their dreams. Along the way, they encouraged each other, persevered, faced challenge after challenge, and overcame one competitor after another! Ultimately, they built their company into a major enterprise in just five years, even securing a contract for the Zhonghai Xicheng redevelopment project, a deal with a total investment exceeding one billion yuan! Surprisingly, the hardships of their early days didn't defeat them; instead, now that their company is on track, the two may be facing a falling out! These two are Liu Guopei and Sun Wenxing!
Is it really true that we can only share hardship but not happiness? Is money really such a terrible thing?!
This shouldn't be the first time Sun Wenxing has betrayed the company! Xiao Hui said there are two private accounts, one in Wenxing's name and the other in Chu Hua's name, the director of the Xicheng Urban Construction Bureau. Thinking of this, Liu Guopei, sitting in his office chair, recalled the incident with Zhao Kun and Chu Hua at the Hongxin Hotel. He had wondered then why the two of them knew so quickly that he had secured the Xicheng redevelopment contract. If he wasn't mistaken, it must have been Sun Wenxing who leaked the information. Only he and Xiao Hui knew that his business trip was for that contract! Although he hadn't mentioned the successful signing when he returned to the company, based on his understanding of him, Sun Wenxing must have guessed. He knew that if he hadn't secured such an important contract, he wouldn't have returned to Zhonghai!
How ridiculous and cruel...! The mole I've been searching for turns out to be my own brother who started the business with me! That's why I haven't been able to find the mole—because no matter what, I've never suspected him! Even when Xiaohui speculated this morning, I decisively refuted her! Maybe...maybe it's just as Xiaohui said, the problem isn't actually that difficult; it's just that I've subjectively ruled out Sun Wenxing beforehand...that's why I'm so blinded by my own involvement!
*Buzz—* The phone on the table vibrated again...
Upon taking the call, Liu Guopei realized it was from his mother, Chen Xianyi. He quickly snapped out of his daze and answered the phone.
"Hey, Guopei! Are you working right now?" His mother's gentle voice came from the other end of the phone, while his daughter Jiajia kept teasing him and calling him "Dad."
"I'm not at work, what's wrong, Mom?" Liu Guopei felt a pang of sadness upon hearing her daughter's voice after not seeing her daughter or visiting her elderly parents for several days.
"What could possibly be wrong with me? Sigh... Jiajia, you and your husband haven't come to see me for days. Zixin went on a business trip without even telling me. Tell me the truth, did you and Zixin have a fight? Did you bully her? Zixin is such a good daughter-in-law, please don't let her down!" Chen Xianyi, the mother, sighed on the other end of the phone, her tone full of reproach towards Liu Guopei. Her daughter, Jiajia, kept calling out to talk to her father...
"Mom... what are you saying? How could I possibly bully Zixin! Zixin is away on a business trip. I was going to tell you, but I've been so busy these past few days that I haven't had a chance. We're doing fine. Is Jiajia being good? And how's Dad's health lately? I'll see when I can go see Dr. Jiang tomorrow. He said last time that Dad's high blood pressure has gotten a bit worse!" Hearing his mother's reproach, Liu Guopei quickly explained. He knew he wasn't a good father or a good son to his daughter and parents!
"That's good... You two shouldn't keep focusing on work. Your dad and I understand you're busy, but you should at least come see Jiajia. She's still so young. Yesterday, Zixin called me, and as soon as she heard Jiajia's voice, she cried, which made Jiajia cry too... Sigh... These two, mother and daughter, have really broken my heart... I thought you two had a falling out... I asked Zixin, and although she said no, I still couldn't rest easy, so I called to ask you! Guopei... Don't hide it from your mother... If you really had a fight with Zixin, go apologize right away. She's never been away on a business trip for this long before. I think you're the one who bullied her this time...!" Mother Chen Xianyi said earnestly and softly, not forgetting to scold her son at the end.
"Mom...! No, we're fine. Zixin isn't on a business trip, she's going to study. It's a good thing, an opportunity for advancement! I can't stop her, can I? I'll come to your place tomorrow after I get back from Dr. Jiang's! Mom... let Jiajia answer the phone, I want to say a few words to her!" His daughter's childish voice kept coming from the other end of the line, excitedly calling for her father. Liu Guopei felt a pang of sadness; he truly owed his precious daughter so much!
"Okay, you two can talk for a bit, Jiajia...! Say hello to Daddy... Don't you always want Daddy and Mommy? Come on, call Daddy...! Sweetie, baby!" Mother Chen Xianyi spoke to her daughter on the phone.
"Dad..." Hearing his daughter Jiajia's familiar, childlike voice in his ear, Liu Guopei almost couldn't hold back his tears.
"Hey... baby...! Jiajia, be good...! Do you miss Daddy and Mommy?" Liu Guopei suppressed his emotions and spoke to his daughter as gently as possible.
"Why don't you and Mom come and play with me, Dad? Don't you want me anymore?" the daughter said sadly on the other end of the phone, her tender voice trembling slightly. Liu Guopei could tell that the little girl was about to cry... Her mother, Chen Xianyi, kept gently comforting her on the phone.
"How could your father and mother not want you! Your mother has to work. If you are a good girl and listen to your grandparents, your father will come to see you tomorrow, okay?" Liu Guopei could hardly control his emotions.
"Okay... Daddy, I want Barbie dolls and pretty dresses... Can you buy me lots of them tomorrow?" The little girl was still too young. Hearing that he was going to see her tomorrow, she shouted happily on the other end, completely forgetting that she had almost cried just now.
"Okay, Daddy will bring you lots of gifts tomorrow, baby...! Give the phone to Grandma, Daddy has something to say to Grandma, be good!" Liu Guopei really couldn't talk to his daughter any longer, otherwise he really wouldn't be able to hold back, so he quickly told the little one to give the phone to her mother, Chen Xianyi.
"Mom, let's call it a day for now. I'll come see you and Dad tomorrow. I'll bring Zixin with me when she gets back!"
Upon hearing his mother say that his wife had cried on the phone with their daughter, Liu Guopei knew she must miss her daughter terribly. At the same time, Liu Guopei made a decision: no matter what, he would put down his work the next day and go see his parents and daughter.
