Qi Lei could already imagine the impact it would bring if people found out about this!
He heard that it was one of the few regrets Elder Madam Mu had. Even he was shocked when he found out, so it must have been utterly shocking news for them!
“Mmm, that’s the truth behind it. Chen knew about it a long time ago, but he kept it a secret because he felt it was of no benefit to Lingshi, and he was worried that his family might not be able to accept it,” Zhou Zimo explained as his expression darkened. “Who would’ve known that we couldn’t avoid it anyway? It might just be fate.”
“No point saying anything now. Tell me when the memorial service is. I have to go back to the Mu residence now.” Mu Yuchen got up and slowly went towards the staircase.
Qi Lei and Zhou Zimo traded glances, both seeming worried and anxious.
The news of Wang Hui’s death was released in the afternoon the day after she passed away.
Many people found it shocking, including Qi Feng and Gu Lingsha, who were busy preparing for their wedding!
Inside the Qi Feng’s huge and extravagant study room, Morrison had a wide smile on his face when he broke the news to Qi Feng.
“First Master, it’s confirmed! Wang Hui is dead. She had a heart attack yesterday. Mu Yuchen sent her to the hospital as soon as he could, but it was already too late. She passed away before she was able to say her final words to anyone!
“That sly fox was a tough character. If it were not for her meddling, Mu Yinan and Zhuang Shurong would’ve gotten into a huge fight already. Mu Yuchen has always respected her. I’m sure all of them are affected by her death! They must be really depressed at the moment!”
Qi Feng’s expression darkened slightly. “Wang Hui? How did it happen so suddenly? There was no sign of her health issues before, was there?” He sounded doubtful.
“First Master, heart attacks are sudden. There’s no saving once the window of opportunity is missed! By the way, I heard that Glory World’s Elder Chairman, Mu Yinan, entered the building with a scary expression with Wang Hui following behind him anxiously.”
Morrison paused as he gave Qi Feng a meaningful glance. Then, Qi Feng looked back at him coldly, signaling him to continue.
“So, I think something must’ve happened! Mu Yinan must have spoken to Mu Yuchen, and with Wang Hui there, something must’ve triggered her, hence the heart attack!” A dark light flashed in Morrison’s eyes as he grinned coldly.
Qi Feng smiled after staying quiet for a moment. “Wang Hui is indeed a powerful character. It’s a pity that she passed away like this.”
“First Master, it’s good news to us that she died. It’ll leave an impact on Mu Yuchen! I’ve sent people to find out what exactly happened. It’d be great if we can find out information that’s advantageous to us.” Morrison seemed glad about their misfortune. “I hope it’s exactly what I guessed.”
“What did you guess? Haven’t we gotten the results yet? Even after it’s been so long?” Qi Feng shot him a questioning glance.
Morrison bowed apologetically. “Don’t worry, First Master. They are working on it. I’m sure we’ll be getting the results very soon, and I’m sure there’s a reason why they are trying to cover it all up! I’m looking forward to the kind of chaos that will unfold once the truth is uncovered!”
“Your efficiency is getting worse, Morrison!” Qi Feng was dissatisfied.
Morrison took a deep breath and replied, “I’m sorry, First Master. I promise we’ll get the results soon!”
“If it’s as you guessed, I’ll see how Gu Qiwu will try to control me again! And Mu Yuchen as well, I’m sure it’ll be shocking news to him!” Qi Feng’s voice was full of coldness and hatred.
Morrison nodded. “Yes, I’ll find out as soon as possible. By the way, Missus was looking for you everywhere just now. She wanted you to head back to the Gu family’s mansion to visit Doris. What do you think?” Qi Feng’s expression instantly darkened when Doris’s name was mentioned.
Doris did not give him an ounce of respect at all! She was unhappy with him ever since he started going out with Gu Lingsha because she wanted Gu Lingsha to marry to Mu Yuchen and join the Mu family!
Despite being the heir to the Hui Gu Corporation, he was nothing in her eyes!
“Tell her to go by herself. Doris didn’t seem happy to see me,” Qi Feng scoffed bitterly as he clenched his fists! He punched his senseless legs while his expression was eerily gloomy!
Morrison felt a chill go down his spine. “Noted, I’ll inform her later.”
He then found back his voice some time later. “First Master, that’s just how Doris is. We can’t underestimate her judging by the fact that she was able to put a leash on Gu Qiwu all these years. I think it’s better for us to get on her good side. Her background is just too powerful! And don’t forget, if what we suspected about Gu Qiwu is true, she might be able to help us.”
He smirked. “Moreover, Ms. Lingsha and you are officially husband and wife now. You two have even announced it on the news, so she has to accept it no matter what. Ms. Lingsha is her only daughter, and I’m sure she loves her a lot!”
Qi Feng smiled back at him wryly. “I don’t really care since she has her own reasons for disliking me. I’m just worried about Weiwei. With Lingsha’s love towards her and Doris’s dislike of her, it’s an invisible bomb between them that will explode at any moment!”
