Chapter 76: He never expected Auston to actually be so considerate (part 4 of 4)

Gu Wuji also failed to smoothly read the script after coming out from the system space.

He found that he seemed to have been inadvertently dragged into the issue of the Cheng family’s illegitimate child. It’s said that after the sudden death of Cheng Jia’s father, the mistress he had raised outside brought the child to the door.

Of course, Gu Wuji, personally didn’t want to be involved with the family affairs of other people. But Cheng Jia’s mother, Mrs. Tang, clearly believes that he is some sort of omnipotent being.……

Therefore, the moment Gu Wuji stepped downstairs, he was instantly pulled over by Mrs. Tang, who tearfully bemoaned at the same time, asking Gu Wuji to determine whether or not this child was really that of the Cheng family.

Gu Wuji: “……” How could he determine this thing? Shouldn’t this matter be referred to the hospital?

“Even if I can’t receive a dime, I’ll never let that slut have a share of the property!” Mrs. Tang fiercely declared. Then cried while holding on to the shoulder of her son, who was right next to her, “My poor child, to have never experienced a father’s love for even a few days from childhood…… Yet now, an illegitimate child have popped out from nowhere, wanting to have a share of the inheritance. This is simply bullying us, an orphan and widow.”

Cheng Jia had no choice but to comfort his mother, before finally sighing once more, “That child, there’s really nothing we can do about him…… Big brother will never let the blood of our family fall outside.”

“That child definitely has no blood relation with our Cheng family. Who knows from where that woman found it!” Mrs. Tang gritted her teeth fiercely.

“But the DNA proof has already come out……” Cheng Jia was also in a complicated mood.

“No, they must’ve done underhanded tricks.” Mrs. Tang said: “I’ve already sent someone to investigate. The child was obviously lost in the miscarriage during that woman’s pregnancy, even the hospital had witnessed this! So where did she get this child from?”

""

“Mom, is your investigation reliable?” The moment Cheng Jia put forwards this question, he saw Mrs. Tang show a slightly guilty expression.

How could they still not figure it out? Mrs. Tang should have also probably done something underhanded to cause the miscarriage of that woman at that time. That’s why she was so certain that this child definitely isn’t biological. But who would’ve imagined, that the DNA test would prove that this child was definitely of the Cheng family.

“They must’ve used means that ordinary people can’t detect.” Mrs. Tang turned to Gu Wuji with a pleading expression, “Grandmaster Gu, only you can do it! As for the recompense, I will certainly do my best to satisfy you.”

Gu Wuji originally didn’t want to get involved, but he instinctively felt that there was something off all of a sudden. After considering the things that were also related to the Cheng family, he immediately nodded, expressing his willingness to look into this situation.

Cheng Jia looked at Gu Wuji with a gaze full of guilt, feeling that he was really troubling Grandmaster Gu. In any case, he feels that his mother was certainly just making a huge fuss over nothing. There’s no way that child could possibly be a ghost, right?

“That’s really great.” Mrs. Tang sighed in relief, then added: “But that woman is also cautious, saying that she wouldn’t take her child out until we’re willing to bring him in*…… Maybe we’ll only be able to get a glimpse at the funeral later.”

*acknowledge as part of the family with rights to inheritance.

Gu Wuji promised. Seeing that this matter should almost be done, he thought of reading the script, but his mobile phone’s ringing tone sounded. The incoming call was from Xia Yangshuo.

…………

……

In the city’s most luxurious high-rise revolving restaurant.

In a private room, Gu Wuji sat while looking at the very deferential Xia Yangshuo, who was sitting across the table, with all kinds of exquisite food placed before the two of them. All of which were completely to Gu Wuji’s taste, and were the results of the very careful investigation made by the other party.

Gu Wuji didn’t want to come at first, but he couldn’t resist the temptation of fine food. Moreover, the other party seems to really have something important to say.

If the scene of these two individuals eating together in a private room was photographed by someone, it’s estimated to be another breaking news. Of course, there naturally wasn’t anyone present daring enough to commit such an offense.

Xia Yangshuo was originally Cheng Jia’s arch-nemesis. So, he in turn, felt that Gu Wuji was very displeasing to the eyes. But who would’ve thought that he would be saved by Gu Wuji after encountering a ghost? Then after seeing the various astonishing operation of Gu Wuji, he afterwards, completely thought of Gu Wuji highly from that time on.

The two exchanged pleasantries at first. The process of this exchange of pleasantries was exactly Xia Yangshuo’s comprehensive voicing of his admiration towards Gu Wuji. Gu Wuji nodded and hummed in agreement a few times, while continuously eating the fine food in front of him.

Xia Yangshuo finally couldn’t help but head straight to the point soon after.

“Grandmaster Gu!” A bit of fervor could even be heard from Xia Yangshuo voice, “I have something to trouble you! This matter is something only you can do.”

Thinking that it might be something like a movie cooperation, Gu Wuji instantly became energized, “What’s the matter? What is it about?”

“It’s like this, our family is actually just a branch family of the Xia family, and is far inferior compared to the main branch.” Xia Yangshuo disclosed, “But the old master of the main branch is currently poor in health and doesn’t have any offspring. So, it seems that he wants to select someone in the other branch family as an heir……” He was very excited while saying this. He then took another sip of tea, “That’s the reason why I must seize this opportunity.”

Gu Wuji’s attitude suddenly became much colder, “……I think you’ve found the wrong person.”

Fancy that he actually thought that the other party was going to have a discussion with him about the entertainment industry. After the previous movie was released, Gu Wuji could now be said to have garnered a bit of popularity, and had already broken free of his previous reputation as a mere internet celebrity.

“No, Grandmaster Gu.” Xia Yangshuo looked at Gu Wuji determinedly while saying: “This matter is definitely something only you can accomplish…… Because, the old man personally claimed that he is being haunted by an evil spirit, and only those who can resolve this matter can gain his recognition.”

Gu Wuji: “??”

Wait, isn’t he actually an actor? So why is everyone approaching him to solve these kind of problems? All of this stuff is simply his amateurish line of work!
