After Transmigrating into a Scumbag Alpha, I Whitewashed Myself with the Movie Queen on a Reality Dating Show - Chapter 32

An hour later, Gu Zhi finally received a tip that a certain restaurant in A-City was closed for business today.

The restaurant owner was named Wan Jinshan, a notorious local boss in that area. Since the original owner came from a wealthy family, she knew many people in the rich second generation circle and was aware of Wan Jinshan’s reputation.

Han Yun said on the phone, “Although the restaurant is closed, people saw several individuals go inside. It’s unknown what they are up to.”

Gu Zhi’s eyes narrowed. “Regardless, we have to check it out. If they kidnapped the Gu Group’s Madam President, I will never let them go!”

Two men in black took Xu Muyan to a private room on the second floor of the restaurant, where Xue Yan was already sitting. Xu Muyan frowned. “Mom?”

Xue Yan seemed to be in a daze from fright. She spoke blankly to her daughter, “Muyan, please hurry and save me. They threatened me. They said, they said they would sell me to Myanmar.”

Seeing her mother’s distraught look, Xu Muyan snapped, “What exactly do you want?!”

The boss of the restaurant was named Wan Jinshan. He had been a force in the underworld for twenty years, and no one dared to offend him in this area of the city.

Wan Jinshan looked at Xu Muyan lecherously and chuckled. “I hear you’re a female celebrity? Oh, I don’t follow the entertainment industry much, but I’ve tasted a few actresses. I never thought you’d look so enchanting even pregnant.”

Xue Yan: “Pregnant?”

Xue Yan finally saw her daughter’s swollen belly, and her face instantly turned pale. Xu Muyan saw the increasing abnormality in her eyes. She knew Xue Yan was about to go crazy again.

“Whose bastard’s child are you carrying! No! Get rid of it!”

Xu Muyan frowned. “Mom, you’re mad. This is my wife’s and my child.”

Xue Yan asked suspiciously, “You’re married?”

Xu Muyan had thought that even if she hadn’t watched the dating show, she would have seen Weibo, but she realized her mother knew nothing. It was understandable—how could a person constantly having episodes follow such things, and how could people around her gossip and tell her?

Besides… every time she looked at the news, she would see news of Xu Xun, which would only make her more manic.

Wan Jinshan tutted twice. “Why are you mother and daughter arguing? Argue any more, and I’ll take your lives right now.”

Xu Muyan said coldly, “What do you mean?”

Wan Jinshan: “Want to know who brought you here?”

Xu Muyan glanced at Xue Yan. “Who?”

Wan Jinshan chuckled. “I’m not telling you. Your mother almost assassinated a big shot at the auction recently.

That big shot paid me a lot of money to teach your mother and her daughter a lesson. Tsk, tsk… A female celebrity. You must have married a very rich Alpha to live in Yulan Mountain Villa.”

Xu Muyan was surprised that Wan Jinshan didn’t know she was married to Gu Zhi. The Gu family was a prominent figure in A-City, but since she and Gu Zhi had registered their marriage in secret, it was not surprising that he was unaware. She cleared her throat. “I advise you not to offend me, or she won’t let you get away with it.”

Wan Jinshan laughed. “I’m the boss here, and I have a powerful big shot backing me. All the rich people in Yulan Mountain Villa combined can’t compare. What are you boasting about!”

Xu Muyan frowned. “What do you want to do?”

Wan Jinshan looked at her lecherously. “I’ve played with a few female celebrities before, but none of them are as pretty as you. How about you let me taste… a pregnant woman’s flavor?”

Xu Muyan gritted her teeth. “You wish.”

Wan Jinshan laughed. “This is my territory, and all my subordinates are around. Let’s see what you can do!” He stepped forward to touch Xu Muyan’s face. Xu Muyan immediately dodged. Wan Jinshan was about to grab her when—

Dong, dong, dong! A knock suddenly sounded at the door.

Wan Jinshan had arranged for his subordinates to guard the door and told them to call, not knock, if there was an emergency. Therefore, he suspected the person knocking was not one of his own.

Wan Jinshan grunted, “Who is it?” He gestured for a subordinate to look through the peephole. The subordinate looked and said, “There’s no one outside.”

“Then where are our men?”

Bang! The door was suddenly kicked open violently. The subordinate flew directly onto Wan Jinshan.

Wan Jinshan cried out, pushing him away. “Get off me!”

Over a dozen people dressed as bodyguards rushed in. One of them was the person Xu Muyan had been thinking about.

Gu Zhi let out a sigh of relief when she saw Xu Muyan was safe and sound. She gritted her teeth. “Damn it, you dare bully my wife!”

Wan Jinshan didn’t recognize Gu Zhi and shouted, “Who are you? Do you know who I am?”

Gu Zhi couldn’t help but deliver a kick. “I don’t care who you are! Who told you to bully my wife!”

Wan Jinshan rolled up his sleeves. “Hey, don’t you know the great name of Wan Jinshan of Jinshan Restaurant?”

Gu Zhi sneered. “Don’t you know she’s the wife of me, Gu Zhi?!”

Wan Jinshan’s heart trembled. Could the person in front of him actually be Gu Zhi? These uneducated thugs wouldn’t pay much attention to the entertainment industry or watch dating shows.

Coupled with the fact that Gu Zhi and Xu Muyan’s marriage registration was kept secret and their news was scarce online, they didn’t know the Movie Queen was with the heir of the famous Gu Group.

Wan Jinshan had always minded his own business here and never crossed paths with the Gu Group’s sphere of influence. They had never met face-to-face.

Wan Jinshan also didn’t care for the drama of the entertainment industry’s sugar babies and sugar daddies. He had only heard of Gu Zhi’s reputation, but never knew her appearance.

Realizing the person in front of him was indeed the heir of the Gu Group, his eyes widened. Offending the Gu Group was absolutely unthinkable! Especially when he had kidnapped the CEO’s wife! He was finished!

Wan Jinshan chuckled ingratiatingly. “CEO Gu—Ah!”

Bang! Gu Zhi kicked him directly in the groin.

Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah— Wan Jinshan screamed in pain. Gu Zhi grabbed his neck and slapped him repeatedly, leaving him unable to retaliate.

The other subordinates were also subdued one by one by the bodyguards. These bodyguards were experts in martial arts for over ten years, personally selected by Gu Lan. They quickly incapacitated the thugs.

Gu Zhi landed a direct punch on Wan Jinshan’s face and rebuked him. “Wan Jinshan, with an IQ like yours, I don’t know how you even became a restaurant manager!”

Wan Jinshan was terrified and begged for mercy. “CEO Gu, CEO Gu! Please don’t hit me! I was wrong, I was wrong, boohoo.” He had only taken money and followed orders.

The person who hired him had said the target was merely a female celebrity, no big deal. A female celebrity indeed, but her husband was a big shot in A-City!

“Who sent you?”

Xu Muyan spoke first. “He said my mother attempted an assassination at the auction. What happened?”

Gu Zhi quickly figured out the reason. It was Xu Xun who sent him!

Gu Zhi released him, coldly wiped her hands, and took Xu Muyan’s hand. She said gently, “Are you alright?”

Xu Muyan shook her head and asked, “I’m fine. Do you know about my mother’s situation?”

Xue Yan screamed again. She pointed at Gu Zhi and Xu Muyan in shock. “You two are lying to me! Both of you are lying to me!”

Gu Zhi shook her head. “Auntie, I didn’t lie to you. I just didn’t know how to tell you.”

Xue Yan went berserk again and lunged to hit Gu Zhi. Gu Zhi quickly had others surround Xu Muyan to prevent the baby from being harmed. Gu Zhi blocked her and said to Xu Muyan, “Let’s send Auntie to a mental hospital. Her frequent episodes have been going on for too long.”

Xu Muyan’s eyes were red, but she reluctantly agreed.

Afterward, Xu Muyan sat alone in the car. Gu Zhi finished arranging the matters and got in. She put her arm around Xu Muyan’s waist and asked, “You weren’t too frightened, were you?”

“You knew my mom and Xu Xun met. Why didn’t you tell me?”

“I’m sorry. You’re pregnant right now. Telling you wouldn’t have been good.”

“She must have known Xu Xun was coming and wanted to see him, but she got triggered and went crazy again…”

“I’m guessing it was seeing Su Xiao too?”

Xu Muyan’s expression changed, and her voice trembled slightly. “So that’s what happened.”

Gu Zhi quickly hugged her, feeling Xu Muyan’s body constantly trembling, worried about any emotional upheaval.

Han Yun asked, “What should we do with Wan Jinshan?”

Gu Zhi raised an eyebrow. “He dared to impersonate a police officer to arrest people. Send him to the police station. And that building? Change it into an arcade.”

“Understood.”

Xu Muyan suddenly grabbed Gu Zhi’s hand, her voice a little soft. “I’m cold.”

Gu Zhi quickly took off her jacket and draped it over her. After soothing and comforting her, they finally returned home.

The next day, Gu Zhi went to the mental hospital. Xue Yan was much better after taking her medication. Gu Zhi fed her porridge. “Auntie, open wide. Ah!”

Xue Yan said disdainfully, “What are you doing?”

Gu Zhi chuckled. “I just want to show you some care.”

Xue Yan snorted. “My own daughter hasn’t come to see me. What are you trying to prove?”

Gu Zhi’s eyes became even more gentle. “Auntie, my wife was startled and is resting now. Do you still hate Xu Xun?”

At the mention of Xu Xun, Xue Yan’s fingers trembled. “Hate? I wish I could tear his skin off.”

Gu Zhi smiled. “Then, do you want your daughter-in-law to help you deal with him?”

Xue Yan sneered. “You can’t handle him. Although the Gu Group is huge, the Xu family is not to be trifled with, and they have the Su family backing them!”

Gu Zhi: “Auntie, I know that. It’s impossible to deal with them in the short term, but I can guarantee that I can at least give you some satisfaction.”

Xue Yan looked at her coldly. “You’re dreaming. Get out. I want to sleep!”

Gu Zhi said, “Oh,” and put down the bowl and chopsticks. “Alright.”

Just then, Xu Ranzhi returned from H-City.

“Gu Zhi, where is my sister?!” Xu Ranzhi kicked open her office door.

Gu Zhi shouted, “Damn it, can you please be more polite? And I’m your sister-in-law now. Your sister and I got our marriage certificate ages ago!”

Xu Ranzhi cursed. “What? I’ll kill you!”

Gu Zhi smiled wickedly, looking smug. “Oh dear, oh dear. If you kill me, I wonder if Sister will forgive you.”

Xu Ranzhi stopped talking. After a long pause, she said, “Was your message earlier true?”

“Why else would I tell you?”

Xu Ranzhi sat on the sofa and said softly, “It must have been my mother’s doing. She really does hate them.”

“Hate?!” Gu Zhi gritted her teeth. “Your mother was the mistress. If anyone should hate, it should be them hating your mother!”

Xu Ranzhi smiled coldly. “My mother was the mistress, but my father wasn’t any better. Would he have cheated if he hadn’t been after my mother’s money?”

Gu Zhi asked in surprise, “You actually talk about your parents like that.”

Xu Ranzhi seemed nonchalant. “They don’t love me, and I don’t want to love them. They love my brother the most because he’s an Alpha, the one who will carry on the family line. Only Sister truly loves me.”

Gu Zhi said jealously, “She didn’t even know you at first. How could she love you?”

Xu Ranzhi: “Actually, I knew she was my sister a long time ago. I wanted to be her friend. She’s very kind. Even though she didn’t know I was her half-sister, she still took care of me.”

Gu Zhi pouted, feeling even more jealous. If that’s the case, I should have gone to Xu Muyan’s school and been her junior!

Xu Ranzhi: “When my mother slapped Auntie, I was screaming in fear, but I saw Sister staring at my mother with wide eyes. I suddenly thought she was very strong, and I admired her.”

Gu Zhi was slightly stunned. So they had met when they were very young.

Finished talking, she stood up to leave and sighed. “To be honest, your Sister is better off with you. I can help you with whatever you want to do.”

Returning to Yulan Mountain Villa, Xu Muyan seemed a bit tired and was sleeping. Gu Zhi quietly took a shower and came up behind her to hold her tight. Xu Muyan suddenly woke up.

Gu Zhi apologized. “I’m sorry, I woke you up.”

Xu Muyan shook her head. “It’s okay. I wasn’t really asleep.”

“Are you still thinking about that incident?”

“Regardless of whether Xu Xun sent them, I won’t let him off.” Xu Muyan’s eyes sharpened. “I’m just lamenting how much he really hates Mom.”

Gu Zhi pursed her lips, leaning her head on Xu Muyan’s shoulder and gently kissing her pale neck. “I won’t be like him. I only love you, and I will never abandon you.”

Xu Muyan smiled and held her hand. “I’ve never doubted you. I trust the person I love.”

Xu Muyan suddenly turned over. Gu Zhi quickly shifted her body, afraid of crushing the baby. Xu Muyan, however, leaned in closer.

Gu Zhi was surprised. “Sister … you.”

Xu Muyan put a finger to her lips, exhaling like orchids. “Don’t talk.”

Gu Zhi watched as she leaned in and pressed her lips against hers, a lingering, gentle kiss, filled with a touch of possessiveness and affection. Gu Zhi closed her eyes deeply, accepting her wife’s kiss.
