Chapter 668: Chapter 668 Incident

Gui Yi woke up in the hospital again.

Surrounded by a sea of white, his mind blanked for a moment.

It must be a dream, right?

Definitely a dream!

How could he have such a terrifying dream?

The intense pain at the back of his head made Gui Yi pause, slowly turning his head to see the man sitting beside him.

“Uncle!”

Gui Liren responded, “What happened to you? How did you faint at the exchange?”

Gui Yi’s pupils dilated in shock, almost passing out again.

“It’s real, it’s actually real…”

All the wealth he had accumulated over the years was gone, not a morsel left.

Gui Liren quickly pinched his nephew’s philtrum, calling for a nurse at the same time.

“What in the world made you so anxious and upset?”

Gui Liren doted on this nephew immensely.

His wife had not been able to give birth to a son, only a daughter.

Gui Liren, a traditional thinker, naturally regarded Gui Yi as the one to carry on the family lineage, treating him even better than his own daughter.

Over the years, although Gui Liren knew well that Gui Yi was good for nothing, he still used his position to provide conveniences for Gui Yi, which resulted in the latter developing a narrow-minded and overbearing temperament.

The nurse quickly arrived and checked Gui Yi’s vitals, “Nothing serious, probably just a bit of concussion. Don’t get too agitated these upcoming days, just rest in bed and stay calm.”

Gui Yi’s eyelids drooped weakly, “Uncle, I’ve suffered a huge loss this time, I was set up by someone.”

At this point, Gui Yi couldn’t help but realize Yue Jiannan’s scheme.

The other party had exploited his greed to set a huge trap.

He had foolishly walked right into it, not realizing anything was amiss until he was left with nothing.

Although Gui Liren did not know what had happened, he hurriedly comforted him, “You lie here in the hospital for the next few days, and I’ll take care of venting your anger afterwards.”

Gui Yi’s face was filled with malicious intent, “I want to kill him, and that Lin Yushan too, I must get back what I’m owed with interest.”

It was the first time in his life that he had suffered such a heavy blow, and Lin Yushan had just happened to fall right into his hands.

All sorts of ideas whirled through Gui Yi’s head, wishing he could leave the hospital right away to turn these thoughts into reality.

Just then, Gui Liren’s mobile phone, specially provided by his department, rang.

After Gui Liren answered the call and listened for a few moments, his expression dramatically changed, “Secure the items well, don’t let them be discovered; I’m coming back right now.”

It was the first time Gui Yi had seen his uncle in such a state, “What happened?”

Gui Liren’s brow furrowed, “Something big. I need to get back to the department.”

Gui Yi nodded, but the action caused a dull pain in his head, and he could only struggle to sit up in bed, watching helplessly as Gui Liren left.

Gui Yi was preoccupied with thoughts of revenge once he was discharged, unaware that the prelude to retribution was starting with Gui Liren.

Gui Liren received a message that someone had filed a petition against him, alleging he embezzled urban demolition funds and used his position to open doors of convenience for his family, causing various negative impacts.

An investigation team was specially formed by the authorities to look into the matter, causing Gui Liren to shudder upon receiving the news.

While on one hand he consoled himself thinking nothing would come of it, a sense of ominous foreboding lingered.

Unfortunately for Gui Liren, his premonition proved true. This investigation was unlike the previous ones; the relevant department had specially transferred a renowned lawyer.

Not only was the individual well-versed in the law, but they also had a keen eye for details, always able to painstakingly uncover the truth.

They instantly spotted issues with the department’s accounts.

Moreover, through certain means unknown to Gui Liren, they laid out all the deeds he had done over the years, one by one, in the bright light of day.

These not only included the issues reported in the petition but also the past incidents when Gui Liren misused his authority to speculate in the market with Gui Yi.

This guaranteed Gui Liren’s downfall, beyond any salvation.

And as Gui Yi had been an accomplice in many of these events, he naturally could not escape legal punishment. Having benefited considerably from Gui Liren’s influence in his bribes.

In the recent stock market crash, Gui Yi had lost all his money, leaving him with no means to return the ill-gotten gains.

This meant that the punishment awaiting him could not be mitigated in the slightest, and Gui Yi was destined to spend a very long period in prison.
