Chapter 236 The Gu Family Disaster
Chapter 236 The Gu Family Disaster
Although driver Mei Jibo wanted to take such measures, Wu Xiaochuan stopped his father in time.
Wu Xiaochuan knew that he needed to stay calm, especially at times like these, otherwise, if irreversible consequences occurred, it would be truly a disaster.
Wu Xiaochuan had no doubt about Wu Chengzhi's abilities. Even when he schemed against Wu Tao before, he was always polite and respectful.
If Wu Tao were to get into trouble at this time, Wu Xiaochuan would definitely be the first suspect.
Regardless of anything else, Wu Tao is Wu Chengzhi's biological son, and if something happens to Wu Tao...
It's difficult to predict what methods Wu Chengzhi will use to deal with Wu Xiaochuan when things get out of control.
In reality, Wu Xiaochuan's driver and bodyguards have long been turned by Wu Chengzhi. They also frequently leak Wu Xiaochuan's movements to Wu Chengzhi.
Although Wu Chengzhi was determined to have Wu Xiaochuan inherit the Wu family business, he also wanted to maintain complete control. He didn't want to arrange for Wu Xiaochuan to inherit the family business only to have it go bankrupt through someone's schemes the very next day.
Both Wu Chengzhi and Wu Xiaochuan are making plans as quickly as possible. In the end, who will truly succeed depends on whose skills are more profound.
The atmosphere at the Gu family home has been too oppressive lately. Gu Qinghan was in a cold war with her father, and later her boyfriend, realizing that no matter how hard he tried, he could never marry Gu Qinghan, chose to leave Nancheng.
After breaking up with her boyfriend, Gu Qinghan went home to apologize. Although Gu Chunsheng was angry at his daughter's immaturity, she was still his biological daughter, so he gave her a stern lecture and then forgave her.
Originally, the matter between Gu Qinghan and Wu Tao had come to an end, and the Gu family was preparing to introduce Gu Qinghan to potential partners.
Who knew that Wu Tao's reputation as a miracle doctor would suddenly spread, and the circle was never short of news.
The fact that Wu Tao was the true young master of the Wu family quickly became known to all the major families. Then, the news that Gu Qinghan and Wu Tao had broken off their engagement also spread.
No one can really stand up for Wu Tao because of everything he went through with his family, since these things are ultimately Wu's private affairs.
However, Gu Qinghan's act of cheating on Wu Tao before their engagement became an obvious target. After Wu Tao cured the political bigwig, everyone valued Wu Tao even more.
At this point, in order to befriend Wu Tao or to curry favor with him, people would naturally want to do something for him.
It's not appropriate for others to interfere in the Wu family's internal affairs, but dealing with the Gu family is a piece of cake.
Huang Li was the one who started it all; she knew everything about Wu Tao and the Gu family from her previous investigation of Wu Tao's background.
At that time, she only glanced at it casually. Now that Wu Tao is her man, how could Huang Li allow her man to be humiliated like this?
Everything about this man made Huang Li unable to resist him. She wanted to give to him, but couldn't find a good way.
If Wu Tao were to catch the Gu family and torment them severely, he would surely be happy.
For a family with assets worth over a billion, it would be incredibly easy for Huang Li to put pressure on them.
Once Huang Li took the lead, the others swarmed in and attacked her en masse.
Even the servants were causing trouble for the Gu family, both openly and secretly. In less than a week, the once-great Gu family was on the verge of bankruptcy.
The combined attack by several powerful families in the southern part of the city had a tremendous impact.
Gu Chunsheng realized something was seriously wrong when he discovered that the company's clients and partners were constantly terminating their contracts.
Gu Chunsheng went through many trials and tribulations before finally finding out why.
Gu Chunsheng wasn't stupid; he was quite shrewd and knew that the one who tied the knot had to untie it.
Gu Chunsheng naturally wouldn't sit idly by and wait for his fate. He immediately had someone contact Wu Tao, hoping that the other party would show leniency.

Gu Chunsheng wouldn't even mind personally sending Gu Qinghan over, even if Wu Tao tormented her or made Gu Qinghan Wu Tao's mistress, as long as the Gu family was spared.
Faced with the life-or-death situation of the Gu family, Gu Chunsheng did not mind losing a daughter.
No matter how unwilling Gu Qinghan was, she knew that the crisis her family was facing was because of her indiscretion, and she could not stand idly by.
Wu Tao was somewhat confused when he received Gu Chunsheng's call. To be honest, he wasn't the original owner of this body.
Wu Tao had long forgotten about Gu Qinghan. If Gu Chunsheng hadn't brought Gu Qinghan to Wu Tao's clinic, Wu Tao probably would have forgotten about his former fiancée.
"Dr. Wu, my Qinghan was immature before, but now I'm bringing her here personally. If you're willing, Dr. Wu, Qinghan will be your lover and nanny from now on, and she can take good care of you."
"Wu Tao, I know I was wrong. Please spare my family, and I'll grant you any request."
Listening to Gu Chunsheng and Gu Qinghan's words, Wu Tao slowly realized what had happened.
He himself was puzzled, though, since he hadn't taken any action against the Gu family at all. Why did Gu Chunsheng and Gu Qinghan both say it was because of him?
"Uncle Gu, Miss Gu, I really don't mind what happened in the past. In fact, if you two hadn't come today, I wouldn't have known that the Gu family would be in this situation now."
Gu Chunsheng and Gu Qinghan stared at Wu Tao in disbelief. They had initially thought that the business crisis at home was Wu Tao's way of getting revenge on them.
Judging from Wu Tao's words, the other party had no idea about this matter at all.
"Dr. Wu, are you sure this has nothing to do with you?"
Gu Chunsheng's voice trembled slightly as he spoke. If Wu Tao was the mastermind behind this, then the Gu family still had a chance to deal with it.
If Wu Tao wasn't behind this, the Gu family would truly be finished. After all, compared to those other families, the Gu family was like a mayfly trying to shake a giant tree. Before coming to the clinic, Gu Chunsheng thought he was confident he could resolve the crisis.
Now that Wu Tao has denied it, he is truly frightened.
The thought that the Gu family's accumulated wealth over the years was about to be destroyed in his hands made it difficult for Gu Chunsheng to even stand up.
Gu Chunsheng's legs went weak, and Gu Qinghan quickly helped him sit down in a chair.
"Wu Tao, why don't you ask others? Our family is really in trouble right now. If it was one of your friends who did it, please help persuade them. I already know I was wrong, and I'm willing to spend the rest of my life making amends."
Gu Qinghan is now afraid. The reason she used to be so proud was because she had the Gu family as her support.
If the Gu family really goes bankrupt, she will truly have nothing left. Having lived as a wealthy young lady for so many years, Gu Qinghan knows very well what her life will be like after bankruptcy.
Gu Qinghan could be willful in the past simply because she felt that her family could support her.
Deep down, Gu Qinghan wasn't the kind of person who would forget kindness; at least she still had feelings for her parents.
Upon hearing Gu Qinghan's suggestion, Wu Tao picked up his phone and left the house.
"Hey, Sister Li, the Gu family came to our door, saying they're in a crisis. You weren't behind this, were you?"
"Hmm, what do you say, Xiao Tao? I know you're magnanimous, but if the Gu family dares to bully my man, I definitely won't let them off easily. You can offend me, but you can't offend my man."
Hearing Huang Li's domineering words, Wu Tao was both moved and felt a little guilty.
Honestly, for an old monster who has traversed multiple worlds, emotions are a luxury.
Wu Tao himself couldn't remember the last time he had truly fallen in love with a woman.
