Madame Gu's heart raced as she hurriedly dialed the family lawyer's number. She couldn't shake the feeling of panic that engulfed her. With the family company crumbling and her husband's potential imprisonment looming, she couldn't see a way out of this mess. Gu Hua's suggestion to contact Gu Liang seemed like the only ray of hope in the darkness that surrounded them.
"Mom, I think we really need to contact Gu Liang," Gu Hua urged, his voice tinged with urgency.
Madame Gu nodded frantically, her mind racing with possibilities. "Call her and tell her to come back home this instant," she instructed, her voice trembling with worry.
Gu Hua wasted no time and dialed Gu Liang's number, his fingers shaking with apprehension. As the call connected, he blurted out, "Sis, you have to come back home. Dad has been arrested."
