Chapter 457: 457: The Bloody Side
Looking at Gu Yuanzhou, with his hands tucked into the pockets of his suit trousers, he watched me with his deep, dark pupils, yet said nothing.
Lin Nansheng smiled and said,
“We’re all family, why make distinctions? It doesn’t matter who bought it, what’s important is living together.”
“I’m afraid some might not be so willing! After all, some people want a world of their own.”
I hinted subtly at Gu Yuanzhou.
Gu Yuanzhou cleared his throat,
“I chose the house, but Director Lin paid for it! So, in fact, it was Director Lin who bought it. Both of Director Lin’s daughters can live here; there is no problem with that.”
“Yes, Xiaoyun. I paid for it, and I’ve made a will that states that in the future, you and Anqi will each inherit half of this island and the villa.”
“Er, I think living in the city center might be better!”
Lin Nansheng patted my shoulder, speaking earnestly,
“Do you know why this island is called Yijia?”
“I don’t know!”
“I changed the name on purpose. My intention is to have our whole family live here, loving each other! Supporting and taking care of each other. You are pregnant now; you’ll need care in the future. And your sister needs someone to look after her too. Living together would make it more lively. Moreover, once your children are born, growing up together in the same family, they’ll be much closer, don’t you think?”
Lin Nansheng’s ideas are the same as many other elders.
It’s natural for the aging to want the whole family to live together.
For a moment, I couldn’t find the appropriate words to refuse.
As I struggled internally, suddenly Awu rushed in, flustered.
“Director Lin, something terrible has happened… that Cui fellow has come again.”
“Where is he now?”
“His car has arrived at the doorstep!”
Lin Nansheng hit the table and shouted angrily,
“Didn’t we agree that he wasn’t to come to the house?”
“I’ve tried, but I couldn’t stop him! He brought people and forced his way over…”
Before Awu finished speaking, screams from the maids could be heard outside.
On closer examination,
A crowd of people burst in.
Surrounded by a dozen bodyguards, a bald man in a floral shirt, smoking a cigar, entered.
These people holding machetes, like some triad gang, frightened the maids who had never seen such a spectacle; they huddled in the corner, afraid to make a sound.
“Yo, Uncle Lin! Surprising to see that at your age you’re still keeping a beauty hidden.”
Upon entering, Cui Sheng stared at me, puffing on his cigar, the thick gold chain around his neck nearly blinding.
Lin Nansheng spoke angrily,
“That’s my daughter; don’t talk nonsense!”
Cui Sheng sat down on a chair with a heh-heh laugh,
“About the gold mine, we had an agreement to split it half and half, when do you plan to honor that?”
Lin Nansheng spoke angrily,
“I invested, and you were responsible for security. It was agreed that you’d only get a quarter; the contract was signed very clearly, and your quarter was paid long ago. I owe you nothing. There was no talk of splitting it in half.”
“Hey, Uncle Lin, that’s not right of you. If it weren’t for my men risking their lives to protect the mine, you wouldn’t have earned a single hair from it. Since you’ve made so much money, why not let a little slip through your fingers for us? Otherwise, your beautiful daughter here might have some tough days ahead.”
This man’s rogue aura was palpable; he approached me and blew a puff of smoke right in my face.
His lewd attitude was clearly harassing me.
If it had been before, I definitely would have fought back,
But with a child on the way, I really didn’t dare stand up to this scum.
Seeing me shrink back, he became even more brazen, even reaching out to touch my face.
I’ve figured it out.
This thug must have seen Uncle Lin’s wealth and wanted to extort a sum.
He didn’t expect his kick to hit a steel pillar.
Just as he reached out, a large hand stretched over, pressed against his chest, and roughly pushed him back.
“What are you doing? Where is your hand reaching?”
Gu Yuanzhou made his move, his cold eyes glaring at Cui Sheng.
Cui Sheng, with a face full of rough flesh, revealed a fierce expression, viciously snapped his cigar, threw it to the ground, and stomped on it fiercely.
“Who are you, kid? What did you just say to grandpa?”
Although Cui Sheng was sturdy, he was almost a head shorter than Gu Yuanzhou.
So, even standing in front of Gu Yuanzhou, as fierce as he was, he was oppressed by Gu Yuanzhou’s imposing presence and couldn’t assert himself.
But stubbornly, he still wanted to assert his presence in front of Gu Yuanzhou.
He rolled up his sleeves, then clenched both fists together, rushed in front of Gu Yuanzhou, and showed off his thick, muscular arms.
Gu Yuanzhou watched with a sneer,
“Enough, I’m giving you three seconds to take your dogs and roll out of here immediately, or else you’ll all be carried out horizontally!”
“Yo, kid, you sure can talk big, huh? I’m not leaving. Not only am I not leaving, but since you’ve pissed me off, I’m going to sleep with every woman in your house, believe it or…”
Cui Sheng was extremely arrogant.
His words were filthy.
Gu Yuanzhou, having heard this, didn’t waste any more words with him.
He directly snatched a machete from one of his men’s hands and grabbed Cui Sheng’s left hand, swiftly slashing down.
Blood splattered.
Screams echoed.
Accompanied by the pig-like howls, Cui Sheng, holding his hand, jumped up.
“Ah, ah ah ah!”
The screams were piercing.
At this moment, Gu Yuanzhou, holding a machete, his face splattered with blood, his black eyes even more fierce after being stained with blood.
The demon-like him seemed like a Shura who had crawled out of hell, slaughtering people on sight, be they a god or a Buddha.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
This sight reminded me of Gu Yuanzhou’s younger days, when he was working for Song Shixiong, as if he was always like this.
This seemingly gentle and handsome man hid an extremely dark and terrifying soul.
Murder was something Gu Yuanzhou always did without even blinking an eye.
“Brothers, what are you waiting for? Hurry up and chop him!”
Cui Sheng wasn’t about to let this slide and, after shouting fiercely, commanded his hitmen to charge at Gu Yuanzhou with their machetes.
However, not only did no one present make a move.
Instead, they threw their machetes onto the ground, then simultaneously raised their hands.
Cui Sheng cursed each one of them, but after a long while, he felt something was wrong; he fiercely turned around to find a line of a dozen black-suited bodyguards emerging from the spiral staircase.
The key point was, these men were holding guns, their faces covered with black masks, emanating a murderous aura.
He knew very well that bullets don’t have eyes and are much faster than machetes…
He was so frightened that he shook all over, urine flowing out of his trousers.
Gu Yuanzhou watched him with cold eyes,
“I’m keeping this severed hand. If you dare come again, what I’ll keep will be your head…”
Cui Sheng was so scared that he turned pale, unable to utter a word, and was helped out by his men.
I originally thought that Gu Yuanzhou acted to save me.
I couldn’t help but take another look at him, but the next moment, the person who appeared shattered all my illusions.
