24: Chapter 24 Nan Qiao is a rich woman!
Faced with Luo Wei's threat of violence,
Zhong Zijie, not wanting to suffer, chose to confess hesitantly.
"Ac—actually, it was Du Jialing who told me to stalk and harass Gu Nanqiao..."
Du Jialing?
Hearing this name, Liu Zhixu turned pale with shock!
She looked at Gu Nanqiao in horror; she had thought Zhong Zijie liked Gu Nanqiao and was stalking her for that reason.
She never expected that Du Jialing was actually the mastermind behind this!
Du Jialing was Gu Nanqiao's Older Female Cousin!
What was she trying to do?
Gu Nanqiao's face was also full of astonishment!
She didn't believe her Older Female Cousin Du Jialing would do such a thing!
But thinking carefully, her blind date with Zhong Zijie a few days ago was precisely because her eldest aunt had pushed for it so hard.
The reason her aunt arranged that blind date was actually because her cousin was planning it behind the scenes, wasn't it?
Gu Nanqiao's face went deathly pale; she had actually been plotted against by her own relatives!
"And then?" Luo Wei continued to press, his foot still on Zhong Zijie's head.
"Why did that Du Jialing arrange for you to stalk and harass her? What was her goal?"
Facing this question, Zhong Zijie's eyes flickered, not really wanting to say it.
Luo Wei lifted his foot with a dark expression, and Zhong Zijie's pupils shook with terror!
"I—I'll talk!" He didn't want to be tortured!
The kick he just took was simply too painful!
He quickly spilled everything.
"Du—Du Jialing has her eyes on Gu Nanqiao's house..."
"She wanted to use the method of scaring Gu Nanqiao to make Gu Nanqiao go abroad."
"Then, she would take the opportunity to occupy Gu Nanqiao's house..."
Hearing these words, Liu Zhixu's hair practically stood on end!
"Fine! So that's how it is!"
"No wonder every time that Du Jialing came over, she kept clamoring about how great it is abroad!"
"She's been egging Nanqiao on, telling Nanqiao to go join Gu's Father who works abroad!"
"Once Nanqiao went abroad, she actually wanted to seize the nest for herself!"
Liu Zhixu was beyond furious!
As the person involved, Gu Nanqiao's face was even more somber!
So that was it. Having cleared up the cause and effect, Luo Wei wasn't surprised.
After all, house prices were so high nowadays that many people would use any means necessary for a house!
"I—I was wrong, I beg you, let me go..."
Zhong Zijie had already confessed.
But Luo Wei still stepped on him, with no intention of letting go!
"Heh..." Luo Wei sneered, staring at him. "Do you know how Gu Nanqiao has been living these past few days?"
"You think you can just apologize and admit your mistake and let it pass? Don't you plan on paying some compensation for mental distress?"
"Exactly!" Liu Zhixu puffed up her cheeks, echoing Luo Wei from the side.
"I—I don't have any money..." Zhong Zijie said with a long face.
"Heh..." Luo Wei didn't believe him. "That Du Jialing asked you to do this, she definitely gave you money. How could you have no money?"
"She—she really didn't give me money..." Zhong Zijie explained, his eyes flickering.
Faced with the threat of violence, it was impossible for Zhong Zijie to value money over his life.
Luo Wei felt that this guy didn't seem to be lying.
In his mind, a guess couldn't help but pop up!
"By the way, you wouldn't happen to be Du Jialing's boyfriend, would you?"
"..." Hearing Luo Wei's guess, Zhong Zijie's eyes were filled with disbelief!
He couldn't understand how Luo Wei guessed this. Could it be that Luo Wei had seen him and Du Jialing together?
Gu Nanqiao saw Zhong Zijie's reaction; it seemed Zhong Zijie really was her cousin's boyfriend!
The blind date her aunt arranged for her turned out to be her cousin's boyfriend!
She wasn't sure if her aunt knew about this or not!
Gu Nanqiao was truly driven to tears by anger!
Her aunt and cousin were simply too outrageous!
When her mother was alive, she had frequently helped their family out.
She never expected that after her mother passed away, her aunt's family would plot against her like this!
Gu Nanqiao turned and went back into the house; she found such a truth hard to accept for a moment.
Liu Zhixu quickly went to comfort Gu Nanqiao.
In the hallway, only Luo Wei and Zhong Zijie, who was under his foot, remained.
Luo Wei took out the bad luck talisman from the system inventory and then smilingly slapped the bad luck talisman into Zhong Zijie's body.
"Alright, you can scram now!"
"Th—thank you..."
Even though he had been beaten up by Luo Wei,
Zhong Zijie still thanked him while hurriedly getting up and fleeing.
Luo Wei stood in the empty hallway and waited for a while.
The system notification sound did not appear.
It seemed he had to help Gu Nanqiao resolve this matter.
Only then would it count as grasping the intelligence and earning intelligence points.
Liu Zhixu walked out of the house at this time. Seeing that Zhong Zijie was gone, she immediately cried out.
"Where is he? Where's that creepy guy?"
"I let him go."
"Huh?"
Liu Zhixu found it hard to understand. "Why did you let him go? You should have sent him to the police station!"
Luo Wei spread his hands. "Didn't you call the police before? Was it useful?"
Liu Zhixu scratched her head gloomily.
Zhong Zijie had only been stalking and harassing.
He hadn't caused any substantial harm to Gu Nanqiao.
So, even calling the police would be useless; at most, they'd give him a verbal warning.
"But what do we do next?" Liu Zhixu was worried. "What if you leave and that guy comes back?"
Luo Wei smiled and pointed to Room 1601 across the way. "Did you forget? We're neighbors. If anything happens, just give a shout and I'll appear!"
"Besides, since I promised to handle this matter, I will naturally resolve it thoroughly!"
"Mm-hmm!" Liu Zhixu beamed and asked impatiently,
"What do you plan to do next?"
"Are you going to go straight to the door and warn Du Jialing?"
"You must take me with you. I want to see you kick a wall until it cracks with my own eyes!"
Liu Zhixu's voice was soft and sweet, sounding like a delicate girl, but her personality was a bit boisterous.
Gu Nanqiao, having composed herself, also walked out of the house. This Black Stocking Older Sister Figure bowed ninety degrees to thank Luo Wei.
"Mr. Luo Wei, thank you so much. If it weren't for you, I really wouldn't know what to do."
While thanking him, she took out her phone to pay Luo Wei his reward.
'WeChat received thirty thousand yuan.'
With thirty thousand yuan in his account, Luo Wei waved his hand. "Just a token amount is fine, you don't need to give so much."
Liu Zhixu giggled from the side. "Thirty thousand yuan isn't much. You probably don't know, but Nanqiao is a rich woman, you know!"
Gu Nanqiao blushed and gave her Best Friend a nudge. She wasn't some rich woman, but thirty thousand yuan really wasn't much to her.
Speaking of which, to find a single pearl earring, Gu Nanqiao had directly offered a five-thousand-yuan reward.
From that incident alone, it was clear that Gu Nanqiao definitely didn't lack money.
On the other side, Zhong Zijie limped away from the Bishui Manor Community.
He couldn't understand how he had fallen several times in a row and almost got hit by a car as soon as he left the community.
However, he didn't care about this bad luck; his mind was now full of how to get revenge on that Luo Wei.
Although he was no match for Luo Wei, he knew a tough guy who had just been released from prison...
