"Get!! Out!!!"
Zhao Lang fought against her emotions and sent her most precious thing away from her.
Gu Ling was relieved to see her mom not caving into her emotions.
There was pin-drop silence in the ward, Gu Ling went outside to call Gu Meng over here. Gu Jing'er was sitting by the bedside consoling her crying mother.
"What should I do? Why did this happen to me?" She cried.
"Mom, it is not your fault." Gu Jing'er said softly.
Gu Ling thought that this was a perfect opportunity to hit the iron when it was hot. So, she sparked the topic she had mentioned to Zhao Lang earlier.
"Mom, It was Gu Feitian who cheated on his wife and mother. I think you should think about what I mentioned to you earlier this month," she said in a vague tone to test Zhao Lang's attitude towards this situation.
Otherwise, she might have to add extra drama to make things happen. She is the CEO of Future Group, she knew exactly what her father might be thinking at this moment. They need to act fast or the opportunity would be lost.
Zhao Lang was angry again, "You unfilial daughter, you want to destroy our home?"
"Mom, I am thinking about you and my sisters. Gu Feitian is a veteran shark of the business world, he would do anything to keep all the wealth to himself. He never loved us, otherwise we wouldn't be nothing in the company." Gu Ling said while standing to her point.
She then added, "Mom, you have to think about us as well. From his attitude from before. It was clear that he did not care about our feelings otherwise he would have at least explained. He might leave us with nothing but ourselves if we delay it for too long."
"You are still thinking about those shares right? They belong to your bro..." Zhao Lang stopped midway.
Gu Ling sighed and walked out. She had a guess who might be behind all this evidence.
She drove back to the company and requested to meet Lei Feng.
....
Lei Feng was waiting for this call so he made an exception and allowed her to come to his office.
Gu Ling was nervous, not wanting to raise her expectations too high. She knocked on the door and went in.
"Brother, did you send the package to me?" She asked.
Lei Feng was facing the window and did not answer the question. He sighed and got up from his chair.
"You're welcome," he said while looking outside the window.
Gu Ling joined him and she was amazed by the view, The 201st floor was a different class of its own.
Looking down on the entire city gave you a completely different feeling of standing at the peak.
"Thank you." she smiled at him genuinely for the very first time.
Lei Feng looked at her and asked, "What are your plans now? Do you want to divide the Ancient group with Gu Feitian and Gu Tianchen?"
"I wanted to convince Mom about divorce but she needs one final push before she can take the decision," she told him what happened in the hospital.
"Let's go," he said while picking up the keys from the table.
They reached the B1 area and sat in his limited edition Buggati Chiron. Gu Ling was sitting in his car for the first time which made them remember when it was the first time she dropped Lei Feng to school. He was so excited and scared to touch anything. Chattering nonstop, praising her and her car. She was annoyed at the moment and never took him to school again.
From that day onwards he went to the school on his own.
Her eyes turned red for no reason, she looked outside the window to hide it.
Lei Feng did not notice it because he was slightly distracted by another message that rang in his mind.

After 10 minutes drive they were at the hospital. Gu Ling followed behind him. Lei Feng tried to suppress his bad memories from childhood and entered the ward.
Gu Meng was sitting by the bedside feeding Zhao Lang some light meal, Gu Jing'er was sitting on the sofa resting.
Zhao Lang choked on the food when she saw him entering.
*cough ... cough...ahem*
Gu Meng patted her back and looked at the new visitor. None of them were expecting him to show up. Seeing Gu Ling walking behind him everyone had some guesses.
Zhao Lang caught her breath and said, "Son..."
Lei Feng sneered and asked Gu Ling, "She is not dying, is she? They say you see all the bad things you have done in your life flash before your eyes. Haha."
Gu Ling gave him an angry look and walked to her mother, "Mom, have you thought about what I said earlier?"
"Is he behind all this drama?" she asked.
"Yes, It was me who sent the package. Did you like it? You still think this is all a dream right? Haha." Lei Feng mocked her again.
He walked to the sofa and sat down, legs crossed.
"Blood is thicker than water, I want to help you out. It's your choice whether you want to take this chance," he said not caring about their reactions.
"Why do you want to help us even after we did all that to you?" Gu Meng asked with a guilty voice. She still felt like she should have asked the truth instead of favoring one brother over another.
Lei Feng replied, "Because I hate that Father & Son duo more than anyone in this world. I won't mind if you people benefit from their disaster."
"I am sorry." he heard Zhao Lang crying at this point feeling sorry for her son. She did all the bad things to him, yet he was standing with her.
Lei Feng felt waves surging in his heart and said, "So do you want help or not?"
Gu Ling was the one who favored this separation so she excitedly held his hand and said, "Brother, please help us."
Lei Feng didn't pull his hand but took a look at everyone in the room and told the story he unearthed during his investigation.
"Gu Feitian came to the capital to make a turnaround when he hit a bottleneck in his business. He wanted to cooperate with the Lin family and use them as a platform to make a big name in Beijing. There is when he met with Lin Fang who was the daughter of the Lin family."
"He spent time with her and slowly they became friends. One drunk night they ended up in bed and that's when Lin Fang completely dedicated herself to Gu Feitian."
"She stole secret bidding information from her grandfather's bedroom and gave it to Gu Feitian, who then used it to win the bidding."
"The Lin family suffered a big loss. So, they investigated and trailed him down. When both parties were about to fight, Lin Fang took the blame and broke up with her family. Willing to live as a mistress because she was already pregnant with Gu Tianchen."
"That is when the real plan began, feeling guilty towards Lin Fang, he devised a plan. He wanted to leave all his property to her and their child instead of his official family i.e. you guys. Haha funny isn't it? You guys played right into it."
He paused to let them digest the large amount of information.
After a few minutes, he continued, "Everything was going well. He had three daughters that could be used to expand his business while he could leave all his assets to his unborn son with Lin Fang. But, everything changed when you were pregnant with me. All plans came to naught. Old fags would never allow the position of heir to go to a wild child. So Gu Feitian had to compromise. He settled Lin Fang in Beijing and consoled her that everything would be okay."
"I was born and everyone was happy except Gu Feitian."
"2 and half years later he was tired of waiting, so he devised a plan to make everything go as he wished for."
"You couldn't have guessed it. He was the one who Kidnapped me."
