The Beautiful Wife Of The Whirlwind Marriage Chapter 1212 - He Died In Her Hands

Chapter 1212 He Died In Her Hands

She never thought that she would one day kill Gu Xiande with her own hands.

This unrelenting old man was now collapsed on the ground in front of her.

No, no. She did not kill him. However, there was no difference if she did or not.

Because she was simply staring at him while he gasped and fought for his life.

Gu Xiande held the reigns of the Gu family for his life and he ended up dying in her hands. But it satisfied her vanity.

Deep down, she thought, No matter how powerful you are, you still died under my hands.

Haha. Now that even Gu Xiande can die in my hands, will I be scared of anyone?”

However, she still had some sense in her. She quickly wiped away all possible traces of her fingerprints. Although there were surveillance cameras outside, there were none inside. Otherwise, there would be no privacy for the house head. Which house head would be willing to stay in a place with no privacy? Thus, she did not need to worry about the surveillance when she walked out.

Very soon, she ran outside. Once she was outside, she acted as if she had just arrived and asked, “I’m here to see Grandfather. Where is he?”

They said, “He is resting in the room.”

She smirked as she walked in.

Soon after she entered, she screamed.

“Ah… Grandfather…”

—

Outside.

“This is bad. Old Grandmaster… Old Grandmaster, he…” The housekeeper ran in, crying.

“What happened to Old Grandmaster?”

“What about Grandfather?”

“What about Father?”

“Old Grandmaster… He couldn’t make it.”

Everyone was stunned. In an instant, they all gathered behind.

Gu Jingze and Gu Jingyu went in first.

They saw the old man on the floor.

At the side, the doctor was already observing the old man’s body.

With an ashen face, he croaked, “Sir… is… already gone…”

What…

Was he really gone this time…?

The doctor conducted an examination.

Outside, many clan relatives rushed over after hearing the news.

The doctor came out and said, “It was probably a heart attack.”

One of the clan relatives exclaimed, “How can this be? Where did your staff go? The old man’s health is not good and to leave him alone in there for so long… Didn’t any of you bother to check on him?”

The doctor was so frightened that he was covered in sweat.

Although they had good service, it really was not easy to please this kind of huge family.

It was as if their heads could get chopped off anytime.

“We check in on him every hour, but the hour was not up just now.”

The clan relative asked, “Where are the family’s attendants? Where did they all run off to?!”

“Sir, Old Grandmaster instructed us to stay away because he wanted…”

“What?” The clan relatives’ eyes glistened as they asked hastily.

The attendants glanced at Gu Jingze.

They then glanced at Lin Che.

“Because Old Grandmaster wanted to see Madam.”

Gu Jingze turned around.

Lin Che also already understood that she was in hot soup.

She looked up at the people in front of her.

Everyone was looking right at her.

Lin Che said, “Yes, I went to see Grandfather just now.”

One of the clan relatives behind stood up. “What do you mean by that? You must be the last person Old Grandmaster saw, right?”

“Exactly. Tell us, what exactly did you talk about with Old Grandmaster that it would trigger a heart attack?”

“You saw him having a heart attack and you didn’t call for help?”

“Ha. Were you trying to harm the old man, so you did not care on purpose?”

“Ah, that must be it. Old Grandmaster doesn’t think well of her and didn’t let her be the matriarch. She must be filled with hatred.”

Lin Che scoffed. These people were ridiculous.

Were they pinning the old man’s death on her now?

Lin Che said, “I indeed went to see Grandfather just now, but we had a pleasant chat. We did not argue and it was very peaceful. When I left, Grandfather was still fine.”

“You have no evidence.”

“Right. Whatever you say goes. A murderer wouldn’t announce himself as one.”

“That’s enough.” Gu Jingze suddenly spoke.

His deep voice sounded so menacing that it made everyone stop.

They were still frightened of Gu Jingze.

Gu Jingze asked, “Aren’t you guys blaming my wife without any evidence too?”

They looked at one another. n.o.body had evidence.

Behind, Xue Mengqi stood out and said, “She was the last one who saw Grandfather. Don’t tell me that we can’t ask her what happened?”

With Xue Mengqi’s words, the clan relatives thought again.

“Exactly, Jingze. You’re wrong. It’s also your grandfather we’re talking about here. How can you be so biased towards your wife?”

“Indeed. You’re too unfilial.”

“Can’t we just ask?”

“Can’t we get some answers and closure for Old Grandmaster?”

Gu Jingze asked, “Are you guys asking or blaming her?”

“Ha. Old Grandmaster devoted his life to serving and contributing to the Gu Family. Now, he is just gone like that. Of course, we have to get to the bottom of this. Furthermore, Lin Che was indeed the last one who left the room. How can we believe you if you don’t tell us what you talked about?”

“Do you not want to say anything because Old Grandmaster still rejected you as matriarch on his deathbed?”

Lin Che looked at these people and knew that they were h.e.l.lbent on prodding her.

“We need answers. We can’t just let the old man’s death be.”

“How about we leave this to the police? Let the police investigate and see if there is any evidence left in the room.”

“Perhaps there’ll be Lin Che’s fingerprints on the old man’s medication. Hmph.”

Gu Jingze narrowed his eyes. “Grandfather’s death has nothing to do with Lin Che. There is no need to investigate.”

“Impossible! We have to find out for Old Grandmaster’s sake.”

The group stared at Lin Che like predators as if they simply wanted to see her suffer.

“Lin Che, are you not going to take responsibility for killing someone?”

“Lin Che, are you hiding behind the house head now to avoid being investigated?”

“Hand Lin Che over, Jingze. Otherwise, Old Grandmaster can’t leave in peace.”

All of a sudden, they banded together like in a palace.

Just that, Gu Jingze suddenly took out his gun, aimed upwards, and shot once.

The room suddenly fell silent.

The crowd looked at Gu Jingze, whose eyes were filled with murderous intent. They suddenly did not dare to provoke him.

“Jingze, if you protect her like this, you’ll really disappoint all of us.”

Gu Jingze grunted. “If I let Lin Che be subject to your prying, there would be no meaning in me being the house head.”

“You are the house head first, her husband second.”

“No. In a civilized and cultured world, family always takes the top and most important spot in a man’s life. And the core of the family is the wife.”

“You…”
