A wealthy family recognizes my relatives? But I am already a billionaire.

Chapter 166 Public Apology

Xu Youyou showed the police that she had no financial dealings with the murderer. Not only did she show her bank account statements from the past few days, she also asked Xu Fang to release the recording.

That day, after realizing that her troublesome cousin might be eavesdropping, she immediately asked Xu Fang to record the conversation on her phone.

After reviewing all the evidence, the police nodded and said, "Ms. Xu, you are very well prepared. We can close the case directly."

Xu Youyou shook her head: "You guys close the case, I'm going to open one here."

The police were stunned when they heard this.

Xu Youyou continued, "This kind of unfounded suspicion makes me feel that my reputation has been severely damaged. Officer, please give me a copy of the relevant materials for this case. My lawyer will handle the rest."

After Xu Youyou got the materials, she handed them directly to lawyer Feng Jing who had just arrived.

After listening to the whole story, Feng Jing immediately understood Xu Youyou's thoughts and whispered, "Boss, I have a little sister who works as an online media platform to popularize legal cases. She's just short of cases. Can she use your case as a case study?"

Xu Youyou looked at Feng Jing deeply and finally understood why her team charged high fees. This person was indeed professional and understood what the employer was thinking.

The Gu family is not short of money, but once this matter is exposed, the Gu family will definitely lose its reputation, and what Gu Jianming and his wife care about most is the reputation of the Gu family.

Ordinary people may feel bad about spending an extra 90 million, but the Gu family, who claim to be a wealthy family, cannot show such cowardice. It is not decent for the Gu family to go to the police station for 90 million.

When Xu Youyou's lawyer's letter was delivered to the Gu family, no one in the Gu family took it seriously.

Mrs. Gu held up the light lawyer's letter and laughed at Xu Youyou's naivety: "This girl is doing it well, but who in the industry takes a lawyer's letter seriously?"

They ignored the lawyer's letter. After a while, the court notice was delivered, and the Gu family paid some attention to it.

When Gu Jianming heard that it was about the villa where the murder was committed, he said casually, "It's not a big deal. If Xu Youyou wants to sue you, let her. The company's legal team will help you defend yourself."

Gu Jianming rarely keeps his word. On the day of the lawsuit, he did send his company's legal team. Although they lost the case, the Gu family did not take it seriously. After all, there was no financial loss.

Xu Youyou's request is for compensation for her reputation and she wants the reporter to apologize in public.

Gu Xueying naturally wouldn't do that.

It wasn't long before the entry "The daughter of a well-known Shanghai entrepreneur falsely accused others but refused to apologize" became a hot search.

Clicking on the entry will lead to a video in which a legal blogger explains defamation litigation, directly using a freshly released court judgment as an example.

Most of the comments below are just for fun.

"This idiot eldest daughter of the Gu family just spent hundreds of millions of yuan on fake porcelain in the capital, and she didn't expect to make a fool of herself again when she returned to Shanghai."

"Didn't people on the internet brag about her earlier, saying she was the most beautiful daughter of a wealthy family? Why is she always doing stupid things?"

"This kind of person is actually Brother Shuangbai's biological sister? Can you please stop embarrassing yourself and stop holding our brother back!" The person who spoke was a fan of Gu Shuangbai.

"The Gu family loves to brag about being a billionaire family. Now it's clear they are indeed wealthy, but looking at the IQ of their wives and daughters, it's clear they probably won't last long."

Because this incident had gone viral online, Gu Jianming flew into a rage at home: "Now all the partners in the company are asking me if this is true? How do I answer you? You're so stupid and irresponsible!"

He was cursing loudly now, but he had completely forgotten who was protecting Gu Xueying in the beginning.

Mrs. Gu whispered, "Hubby, as long as we play dead and deny it, the things on the Internet will be gone after a while. There's no need to take those people seriously."

Gu Jianming's eyes were fierce. "If it were just some rumors, it would be fine. But now, I've sent word to several interested partners, but they're all turning them down. This is affecting our family's business, and we're all screwed!"

Mrs. Gu was also afraid that it would affect her business. If the company earned less money, her living standard would also decline.

She immediately changed her previous attitude of being a dead pig that is not afraid of boiling water, grabbed her daughter and asked, "Is it too late to ask Xueying to apologize in public now?"

Gu Jianming didn't say anything, but it was obvious that he hoped Gu Xueying would take the initiative to step forward.

Gu Xueying's face was full of embarrassment. She was not the kind of young lady without a proper career. She was now running the Gu family museum and had many fans on various social media platforms. She had also promoted herself online as the most beautiful daughter of a wealthy family.

Originally, she planned to rely on this title to secure a good marriage for herself.

Asking her to apologize to Xu Youyou in public would ruin all her hard work over the years. How could she be willing to do that?

But her way of survival in the Gu family is to please the Gu couple. If both of them give up on her, she really doesn't know what to do.

She always played the role of a well-behaved and sensible daughter. Even if she was reluctant in her heart, she could only force a smile and say, "Don't worry, Mom and Dad, I will definitely handle this matter well."

Of course, Gu Xueying did not apologize publicly. The one who apologized publicly was her cousin who caused the trouble.

"I didn't expect that my angry call to the police would cause so much trouble for others. This was purely my personal behavior. I was young and impulsive. I didn't expect that my relatives would be involved..."

Xu Youyou casually glanced at the man's apology letter and knew that he was being pushed out to take the blame, but the heat about this matter on the Internet had already passed.

But whether Gu Xueying apologizes or not, the impact on the Gu family is real.

Xu Youyou did not continue to dwell on this matter. She was now sitting face to face with Liu Dazi.

She sometimes finds it funny that she doesn't have a proper job, but her schedule is always full.

"Ms. Xu, let me tell you again, there is nothing the Red Dragon King cannot get if he wants it. You don't want everyone to be in an awkward position, right?" Liu Dazhi looked like he had something on Xu Youyou.

Xu Youyou frowned slightly, unable to remember what evidence she had. The reason why she was willing to meet with Liu Dazi was very simple.

The hole in the secret room in the basement of the villa was repaired after a few days of expedited renovation work by a renovation team. Now that there was no treasure in the house, she had no intention of living in it, so there was no need to keep it. If the Red Dragon King wanted the villa, he could just buy it.

"I am willing to sell this house to the Red Dragon King. You can go back and tell him this, and then you can report to him." Xu Youyou said.
