Madam Li’s Identity Is Exposed Again! - Chapter 329

Chapter 329: Chapter 329: Chi Ya Going to Jail?

Gu Qiaomei hurriedly spoke up for Chi Ya, “Indeed, what’s done is done, and killing Xiao Ya won’t solve anything. The most important thing now is how to resolve the situation.”

Gu Jianguo was also thinking about how to resolve it. He knitted his brows tightly and said in a cold voice, “I have already instructed the secretary to have the Public Relations Department suppress the news. But I don’t know how much they’ll be able to suppress.”

Gu Qiaomei walked behind him, gently stroking his back to help him relax, and said softly, “Actually, Jianguo, I think Xiao Ya said something sensible. Regardless, this is a family scandal, and everyone knows that family scandals should not be aired in public. Enen is old enough not to be ignorant of this basic common sense. Besides, your company is about to go public. At such a critical time, she has been hiding a recording and releases it now…”

Chi Jianguo was also annoyed that Chi Enen had made such a move at this time, but he was not foolish enough to be easily swayed by a few words. He glared fiercely at Chi Ya and snorted coldly, “If she hadn’t done anything wrong, would she be afraid of being recorded? There was nothing wrong in the family in the first place; it’s all the scandals she has caused.”

Chi Ya opened her mouth, wanting to argue defiantly.

Gu Qiaomei shot her a look, and Chi Ya mumbled and closed her mouth.

“We have all heard that recording. Right now, only the least damaging part is online. If Enen releases the rest of it, Xiao Ya is finished.”

“She deserves it!”

Chi Jianguo looked displeased.

Seeing that he had no warmth or affection for his daughter, Gu Qiaomei felt a chill in her heart but could only gently remind him, “Xiao Ya may deserve it, but I’m just worried it will affect your reputation, as well as the company’s.”

Reputation!

She had hit Chi Jianguo’s sore spot. Reputation was what he valued most in life. As soon as she mentioned it, Chi Jianguo’s fury lessened slightly, and he knitted his brows again. After pondering for a moment, he said, “Then what do you suggest we do?”

“How about this? You call Enen and try to persuade her?” She paused, looking troubled, “Enen has never been close to me since she was young, or else I would try to persuade her.”

Persuade?

Chi Enen probably would not listen to his persuasion.

Chi Jianguo, for some reason, suddenly had this feeling that his daughter, who had always seemed quietly nonexistent, had transformed this time.

“No.” Chi Jianguo took a deep breath, but the heavy stone pressing on his heart did not ease just because he had exhaled. After thinking for a moment, he said decisively, “You take Xiao Ya to the Police Station and have her turn herself in immediately.”

Chi Ya panicked, “Dad, have you lost your mind? I don’t want to go to jail.”

She frantically clutched Gu Qiaomei’s sleeve, veins bulging on the back of her hand, “Mom, mom, please help me. I’m so young, and I’m about to get married. I don’t want to go to jail, I can’t go to jail.”

After all, she was the child she had borne after ten months of pregnancy. Even though Gu Qiaomei might be disappointed in her lack of success, her heart ached nonetheless. But she was smarter than Chi Ya; she understood Chi Jianguo’s character. The man before her cared only for himself and was cold and heartless. Once he made a decision, he would not change it.

She pressed her lips together firmly, secretly resolving to visit her parents’ home and ask her brothers for help.

“If you have done something wrong, you must bear the consequences! That’s the decision, hurry up and take her to the Police Station,” said Chi Jianguo. After speaking, he suddenly seemed to think of something and abruptly added, “Wait.”
