Chapter 1160: Ungrateful People

Editor: Henyee Translations

After Gu Zhaoming dealt with his business rivals, he turned his attention to the Bai family.

On the day Gu Yang was kidnapped, Family Head Bai, in an effort to cooperate with the Ning Family, had sent his family’s private jet out of the capital at Ning Shen’s request. This move was intended to cover for the Ning Family’s private jet and create confusion.

Gu Zhaoming was ruthless toward the families involved in Gu Yang’s kidnapping. He formed an alliance with other families to suppress the Bai family without breaking the law, having promised his daughter that he would be a law-abiding father.

In addition to suffering at the hands of others, he recognized that some of his previous tragedies were self-inflicted. Thankfully, Yangyang had come into his life and helped him change.

That day, after Gu Jin revealed the full story and showed him Gu Yang’s documents, Gu Zhaoming experienced an intensely realistic dream. In it, he recalled many details not mentioned in Yangyang’s documents, as if he had lived an entire life without her.

The pain of watching his company go bankrupt, losing his wife and children, and being betrayed by his daughter felt all too real. The moment he thought of jumping off the rooftop of the Gu Group, cold sweat drenched his back.

In the past few days, the Bai family had been suffering continuous losses. Their technical talents had been poached by Gu Zhaoming, and their capital chain was beginning to falter. They were on the brink of collapse.

That was when Bai Yueshuang came looking for him.

Gu Zhaoming knew she was there to plead for leniency on behalf of the Bai family. Not being familiar with her, he initially had no intention of seeing her.

However, Bai Yueshuang claimed to possess crucial information about Gu Yang.

This led to the scene in his office just moments ago, where she pleaded with him in tears.

At that moment, Gu Zhaoming’s suspicions were once again confirmed. But he was taken aback when Bai Yueshuang asserted that she was his real daughter.

He looked at her, crying pitifully in front of him, and recalled how, in his dream, he had learned that she had colluded with the second branch of the Gu family to bring ruin to the Gu family in Jin City. The anger swelling in his chest was nearly uncontrollable.

He had once doted on her, treating her even better than his own daughter, Gu Jin. Now, it was unimaginable that he had ended up in a situation where everyone had deserted him, leading to his family’s downfall.

Despite his reputation for indulging his daughter, he couldn’t be blind to the betrayal of one who had turned against him after losing her loved one.

Gu Zhaoming fixed a cold gaze on Bai Yueshuang and said mockingly, “Miss Bai, does your biological father know you’ve acknowledged the boss of this company as your father?”

Bai Yueshuang was momentarily stunned, thinking Gu Zhaoming misunderstood her. She cried, “Dad, I’m your daughter, Gu Yang! I’m not here to plead for the Bai family. I truly want to acknowledge you.”

“I’ve been by your side since you were young. That imposter has occupied my body for two years. Have you forgotten about me?”

“Dad, think about it carefully. How can she be like me? There are so many suspicious points. Why can’t you see that? I grew up right under your nose. When did I ever know how to make perfume?”

“When did I learn martial arts and hypnosis? When did I study psychology and mental illness? When did I provoke those terrifying organizations?”

Originally, the Utopia Organization had still been in operation. At their request, she had come to sow discord between Gu Yang and Team Blue Whale. Although she was envious of Gu Yang’s current status, she hadn’t dared to acknowledge Gu Zhaoming as her father.

But now, Gu Yang was unconscious, and the Utopia Organization had been annihilated. She had nothing to fear.

In the past, Gu Zhaoming’s family could not compete with the Bai family, where her biological father held influence.

But now, the Gu family was one of the Eight Great Clans in the capital and had forged a close relationship with the Xiao family, completely crushing the Bai family.

Bai Yueshuang believed that if she clarified everything, Gu Zhaoming, who had once doted on her, would undoubtedly accept her as his daughter.

However, Gu Zhaoming’s expression remained cold. “Yes, our Yangyang knows everything. You know nothing, yet you dare to pretend to be her?”

“Miss Bai, I did not betray Family Head Bai, so I naturally don’t have a daughter like you. It’s better if you keep your surname Bai.”

Just an ungrateful wretch.
