Chapter 465: Chapter 465: Gu Yuanzhou’s Decisive and Efficient Approach
At that moment, Lin Anqi had just taken a grouper to the kitchen.
Lin Nansheng had also gone to change his clothes…
In the living room, it was just me, Gu Yuanzhou, and Ding Yinuo left.
After the documents hit Gu Yuanzhou’s face, they fluttered to the floor.
Gu Yuanzhou bent down, picked up the documents, and after looking through them, his face darkened immediately.
“Did you collect these?”
“What, scared now? Weren’t you pretty arrogant just a moment ago?”
“Come, let’s go to the room and talk!”
Gu Yuanzhou didn’t say anything more and directly pulled me by the hand toward a guest room.
After entering, he casually closed the door and locked it.
At this point, he was emanating a dark aura, glaring at me fiercely.
He raised the documents in his hand again,
“Do you realize the foolish thing you’re doing?”
I got angry at his groundless accusations.
“Can you speak properly? If I were the one who collected them, I would have already thrown them to Anqi and Uncle Lin, why would I give them to you? Otherwise, wouldn’t it be better to throw them directly to the police?”
Only then did Gu Yuanzhou realize the gravity of the situation. He walked over to a window, sat down on the sofa, took out a lighter and lit a cigarette, took a deep drag and looked at me.
“Alright, I apologize to you; I was abrupt just now.”
“I don’t accept your apology!”
I angrily interrupted him. After all the hurtful things he had done to me, could an apology simply make everything okay?
He fiddled with the lighter in his hand,
“Fine, since you’ve brought these documents to me, then tell me, who gave them to you, and what are their intentions?”
“Jiang Jiaying!”
I blurted out a name.
Gu Yuanzhou’s dark pupils lifted slightly upon hearing this.
“Her?”
“Yes! She gave me three days. If I don’t do as she says, she’ll hand over the documents to the police!”
I said calmly.
In truth, I had no way to deal with it at this moment.
Even though Jiang Jiaying’s threat was directed at me, the key person involved was Gu Yuanzhou.
Gu Yuanzhou then fell silent for a while, sitting on the sofa, squinting his dark eyes as he finished the cigarette.
Eventually, he slowly stood up, holding the documents in hand, and then lit them with the lighter.
Gradually, he turned both documents into ash.
I watched his actions and said,
“Burning them is useless; this is just a photocopy. She has the originals.”
Gu Yuanzhou stopped speaking until the documents in his hand had all turned to ash. Then he stood up and said to me,
“I’ll handle this situation. All you can do is keep it a secret.”
“A secret? And here I thought Mr. Gu wasn’t afraid of death. Turns out, you are scared, huh?”
I taunted him coldly.
But he wasn’t angry. Instead, he just looked at me intently, walked over, and began straightening my collar with both hands.
“Ayun, do you still hope for my death now?”
I glared at him, silent…
“Don’t you have a bit of love for me in your heart? Ayun?”
“We’ve been together for over a decade, how can your heart be so cruel?”
“Tell me, what are you really thinking? Do you want to give these documents to the police?”
“Ayun, do you actually wish for me to be alive, or dead?”
His voice was gentle and deep, very magnetic.
For a moment, I felt as if I had returned to the past.
However, I quickly came back to my senses.
“What you’re saying… There’s no Gu Yuanzhou in this world anymore, there’s only Louis, right?”
Just then, a knock on the door interrupted us.
I turned around to answer it.
Standing outside was Ding Yinuo.
I guessed that Yinuo must have been worried that I would be bullied by Gu Yuanzhou, which is why he hurried over.
The moment he saw me, he immediately reached out, grabbed my hand, and pulled me into his embrace.
This inadvertent gesture elicited a cold laugh from Gu Yuanzhou.
At this time, Lin Anqi also came over, unaware of these developments, still wearing a smile on her face.
“Everyone get ready, dinner is served. Ah, the fish today is really good. I just had a small bowl of the soup, so fresh!”
“Let’s go, it’s time to eat!”
Gu Yuanzhou didn’t say much and just took Lin Anqi’s hand and walked away.
Ding Yinuo stood still, not moving, holding onto my hand tightly. After Gu Yuanzhou had walked a good distance away, Yinuo whispered his question.
“Did he bully you just now?”Nôv(el)B\\jnn
“No!”
“Then what were you arguing about?”
Obviously, he had seen me throw the documents at Gu Yuanzhou.
But he was uninformed about the specifics of the matter.
After thinking it over, I decided to give him a selected version of the truth.
“Someone got hold of Gu Yuanzhou’s DNA and other information. With a comparison, they could get answers, and he’s in danger now.”
“Don’t worry about him, he can handle it.”
“Hmm…”
In fact, it is impossible to say that I’m not worried at all.
Jiang Jiaying is quite troublesome.
She’s full of cunning schemes, and there’s nothing she wouldn’t do.
The dinner was lavish, all fish.
All sorts of seafood.
During the meal, Lin Nansheng would talk about the fishing trip, but he never mentioned Ding Yinuo’s accident.
And Yinuo remained composed, showing no sign of feeling wronged or upset about being framed by Gu Yuanzhou.
He was just as cheerful and jocular as ever.
Gu Yuanzhou, on the other hand, was more silent, not eating much or speaking up.
It seemed that the documents had greatly affected him.
Dinner was not yet over when he got up and went to the living room to make a phone call.
I glanced at him from time to time. After a moment, a bodyguard came in.
He was giving the bodyguard some instructions, too far away for me to hear what he was saying.
But after receiving his orders, the bodyguard quickly left.
I sat at the dining table without moving, while Lin Anqi and Lin Nansheng chatted away. It seemed like they were not concerned with Gu Yuanzhou’s behavior, or perhaps, Anqi had already grown accustomed to it.
A short while later, Gu Yuanzhou returned to the table and continued eating.
Lin Nansheng turned the conversation back to me,
“Yinuo, when is Xiaoyun going to have her eye surgery?”
Ding Yinuo’s expression was calm, “No rush, let’s wait a bit more!”
Upon hearing this, Gu Yuanzhou looked up at me and said, “Ding Yinuo, don’t tell me you can’t do it? The surgery has been delayed so long, and you’re still unwilling to proceed. Or is it that you simply aren’t confident of doing a good job?”
Although Gu Yuanzhou was known for never saying anything nice, his reminder made me aware of an issue.
It had been almost ten days since Ding Yinuo took over my eye treatment, and by all logic, the surgery should have been possible by now. But Yinuo kept postponing it. Could it be that there really was no chance of healing anymore?
