Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Gu Qingcheng rolled her eyes at Lu Chi. “You talk too much.”
“Quarreled?” Lu Chi was hinting at something.
Gu Qingcheng opened the car door. Lu Chi’s words made her stiffen.
“What does it have to do with you?”
“It definitely has something to do with me because I’m now your tool to anger your husband.” Lu Chi explained seriously, “Bodyguards are paid for one part, and tools are paid for another. Being a married woman and putting herself in danger as a tool requires a higher price.”
Gu Qingcheng was about to get into the car when Lu Chi’s words shocked her so much that she almost fell into the car.
“Do you have to calculate so clearly?” She looked at Lu Chi in shock. “I think you’re trying to extort my money.”
“Don’t maliciously speculate about me. I’m not blackmailing you. You know that we only talk about money, so we definitely have to settle the score. After all, being a tool is more dangerous than being a bodyguard.”
“You…” Gu Qingcheng glared at Lu Chi angrily. From the corner of her eye, she saw Huo Sicheng walking toward her, and Gu Tianhao rushing over as well. She knew that if she didn’t leave now, she wouldn’t be able to.
“Sometimes I wish I was an octopus…” She raised her voice. “This way, I can slap eight people at the same time!”
Lu Chi pretended to be surprised. He followed Gu Qingcheng’s line of sight and saw Huo Sicheng not far away from them. It was obvious that Huo Sicheng had a complicated expression on his face when he heard Gu Qingcheng’s angry words.
“Don’t cook seafood for no reason. Whether it’s an octopus or a shark, it’ll be eaten in the end.”
Hearing Lu Chi’s annoying words, Gu Qingcheng threw the bag in her hand at him.
“You talk too much!”
Lu Chi wasn’t angry at Gu Qingcheng even though he had been hit. Instead, he squatted down and picked up the crystal pendant on the ground, then glanced at Gu Qingcheng’s bag.
“Look at you. Speak nicely, can’t you? Why do you have to resort to violence?
Now that your pendant has fallen off, you have another piece of trash.”
Seeing that Lu Chi was about to throw the pendant from her bag, Gu Qingcheng snatched it from him.
“Who asked you to throw it?”
Lu Chi said, “You didn’t throw the pendant away even though it was broken? If you’re so rich, don’t be so shabby. I’ll give you a bag another day.”
Glancing at the pendant in her hand, Gu Qingcheng said, “It would be a pity to lose such a beautiful pendant. It can still be used if it is repaired and hung on the bag again. Why must you buy a new one?”
From the corner of her eye, she saw Huo Sicheng approaching her and Lu Chi. She sneered sarcastically, “People these days are so cold. They lose a bag just because they drop a pendant. They even change their relationship whenever they encounter a small problem.”
Lu Chi turned slightly to look at Huo Sicheng, who was beside him. He rubbed his nose when he saw Huo Sicheng’s ugly expression.
“It seems that he’s not talking about me,” he said in a flat tone.
“I’m talking about you, you idiot.” Gu Qingcheng snorted and got into the car.
Lu Chi walked to the front passenger seat of Gu Qingcheng’s car. As he walked past Huo Sicheng, he said very quietly, “My car is parked outside the Gu residence.”
Huo Sicheng’s phoenix eyes flashed and he looked deeply at Lu Chi.
Gu Qingcheng waited for Lu Chi to get into the car. Without even looking at Huo Sicheng, she stepped on the accelerator and drove off.
At this moment, Huo Sicheng’s thin lips were pursed into a thin line as he walked to his car.
“Sicheng… Sicheng…” Gu Tianhao watched as Gu Qingcheng and Lu Chi left. Seeing that Huo Sicheng hadn’t left, he immediately ran after him. “Don’t leave yet.”
Huo Sicheng ignored Gu Tianhao and got into the car.
Ah Qing drove away.
Gu Tianhao stood rooted to the ground. He was filled with unwillingness and helplessness when he saw the banquet being forced to end just like that.
“Master, Madam is going to jump off the building.”
Gu Tianhao was already in a fit of anger. When he heard that Chu He wanted to jump off the building, he was furious.
“Let her jump! What a useless thing!” She did so many things behind my back,” he roared angrily. And she even tried to kill Gu Qingcheng! If Gu Qingcheng died, the old man’s inheritance would go to charity for nothing.
The more he spoke, the angrier he became. He went to the bedroom.
Chu He screamed hysterically, “Don’t come any closer. If you come any closer, I’ll jump down from here.”
“Go on! Jump!” Gu Tianhao entered the room and saw Chu He’s threatening voice with tears streaming down her face and he became furious. “Jump immediately!”
When Chu He saw Gu Tianhao, she was so scared that she forgot to cry.
Slap! The sharp sound of a slap rang out. Gu Tianhao had already rushed in front of Chu He and raised his hand to slap her.
The next moment, he dragged Chu He towards the window. “Come on. Jump, jump for me, jump now!”
Chu He was beaten up by Gu Tianhao. The more she thought about it, the more she felt wronged and painful. She was extremely disappointed in him. She was so angry that she threatened to jump off the building. She did not expect Gu Tianhao to drag her and force her to jump off the building.
“Let go of me…Let go of me…”
She struggled, afraid that Gu Tianhao would throw her down the stairs. She had finally writhed her way into the Gu family’s wealthy family. She couldn’t die like this.
Gu Tianhao walked to the window and pinched the back of Chu He’s neck with his large hand, pinning her head down. “Let go of you? If you want to jump off the building, jump now!”
“Okay, okay, I’m not jumping.” Chu He looked down from the fourth floor and screamed as her acrophobia kicked in. “I’m not jumping anymore. I’m scared, I’m scared…”
Gu Tianhao heard Chu He’s pleading and he pulled her back and pushed her hard.
Chu He fell heavily to the ground. Her knees and body fell on the floor, so painful that she couldn’t even cry.
“Stupid b*tch!” Gu Tianhao stepped forward and kicked Chu He’s back hard. “You said you had a good plan last time. You asked Qin Chong and me to cooperate with you. You said that there was an accident at the Peach Lotus Cup and Gu Qingcheng was injured. When she became disabled, you took the opportunity to trick her into inheriting the inheritance. You even requested Qin Chong and me to get Gu Mei into the Peach Lotus Cup as a mentor.
“Well, Gu Mei has entered the Peach Lotus Cup as a mentor. Your goal is to make us support her and turn her into a real young lady of the Gu family, a socialite of the Gu family, just like Gu Qingcheng.
“Qin Chong and I suppressed Royal Dance and chased away all its prospective investors. And the result? Gu Qingcheng didn’t die or become disabled, not even a single hair fell off. Gu Mei did become your mentor to make you proud, but Gu Qingcheng’s safety ruined all of our plans. It was only today that I realized that you didn’t want to cripple Gu Qingcheng at the Peach Lotus Cup. You wanted to kill her. Gu Qingcheng couldn’t die. If she died, the old man’s inheritance would be given to charity for nothing, and I would have nothing. You knew all of this, but you killed her behind my back.”
“Bitch!” The more he spoke, the angrier he became. He kicked Chu He hard again. “No matter how much you praise Gu Mei, she’s just a piece of trash. She’ll never be able to hold her own! I gave her a chance. Not only was she not a socialite, but she couldn’t even compare to a slut like Gu Qingcheng who danced in the gutter. You will never be able to compare to Mu Xia in this lifetime, and Gu Mei will never be able to compare to Gu Qingcheng! You two low-born ingrates!”
Chu He’s eyes widened. She didn’t feel the pain in her body. She looked at Gu Tianhao in shock.
“You… What did you say? I…. I can’t compare to Mu Xia?” She yelled at him hysterically, “Gu Tianhao! Have you forgotten that Mu Xia is the mistress, the bloody mistress?!”
