Even though they were not together anymore, whenever he saw Jian Jianan in a tough spot, Gu Mocheng could not stand idly by.“If you want me to let you go, you must, at the very least, live a better life. If you do, I won’t feel like I need to look after you anymore! I’d stay far away from you…”After staying in Jian Jianan’s room for a while, Gu Mocheng stood up to leave. Qi Xiuli and Qi Xiaorou, who were sitting on the couch downstairs, rose too when they saw Gu Mocheng descending the stairs.
They were both probably recalling memories of their past, and their minds were preoccupied.Gu Mocheng took out a cigarette and passed one to Jing Yuanwu. Jing Yuanwu was stunned as he looked at him!“Why? Are you curious about why I’m smoking too now?”Jing Yuanwu cleared his throat but did not speak. He took the cigarette regardless.“I was too strict before. Now that I think of it, everyone has problems. Even though it’s bad for you, it’s a good cure for stress and pain, even for a little whi
After she hung up the phone with all her fury, Hao Minzhi called Gu Mocheng and demanded him to come home immediately!An hour later, Gu Mocheng appeared, in all-black casual at the Gu house.The moment he stepped into the house, the atmosphere was obviously unusual. Hao Minzhi sat on the couch and glared at Gu Mocheng while Gu Lingshan sat beside her in worry!Since Hao Minzhi’s birthday party, Gu Mocheng had not returned to the house. Once he was back home, he was reminded of the day he broke
From the Gu house to the hospital, Gu Mocheng was silent and he did not have the intention of speaking now either. Gu Lingshan, on the other hand, kept crying and complaining. “Mom is right. You and Jian Jianan have broken up. She would not appreciate you even if you helped her… I don’t know what you’re thinking. You keep making Mom mad until she goes to the hospital again and again, all for Jian Jianan! Is Jian Jianan more important than our mother?”Gu Mocheng was as quiet as a mute!It was me
New Year’s Day was just around the corner. Streets everywhere were illuminated and decorated. The atmosphere of an impending New Year celebration was overwhelming!Jian Jianan was not able to dive into the joy of it. What was more important to her was figuring out a way to pull North-South Pharmaceutical from the edge of the cliff! After being up to her neck in work all morning, Jian Jianan was about to call Qiao Yongliang to organize another meet up with him. However, he called her first. This excited Jian Jianan somewhat. She had tried to visit him in person before, and even then she left empty-handed, let alone garner his favor! Could the toast she had made the day before have ruined her chances? She answered the phone in the blink of an eye. “Uncle Qiao…”“Nannan, why did you leave without saying ‘hello’ yesterday?” “I’m sorry, Uncle Qiao. I had too much to drink and didn’t want to make a fool of myself in front of you all, so I had my driver bring me home. I was just abo
After wrestling with the thought all night, Qiao Yongliang decided to side with Gu Mocheng. First of all, Hao Minzhi was getting old, and Gu Mocheng would be the one to take over the family! Furthermore, if he could have Jian Jianan by offering his aid, why not? After Jian Jianan had finished talking, Qiao Yongliang continued, “Nannan, I know what kind of a man your father is. However, the suspect behind this setup has yet to be unmasked. Even if I did want to vouch for North-South Pharmaceutical, I’m afraid…” “Uncle Qiao, I have sent someone to find the culprit. Whoever it is, they will be found soon. Don’t worry, so long as the factory resumes its operation again, I’ll make sure to repay you. You won’t be sorry!”“Oh, and how do you plan to repay me?”Seeing his true intention slowly unveiling in his eyes, Jian Jianan cursed deep down. Businessmen and public servants were all the same: they never want to help; not without a little incentive!Was this not how the world was supp
Qiao Yongliang laughed boastful watching the confusion on Jian Jianan’s face, “I have to say, for a girl your age, you’re being quite cautious! Tell you the truth, the reason you’re acting this way is because of the Rohypnol incense I lit in the room. What do you think of the stuff I got from Thailand? Not bad, right?Jian Jianan grumbled internally, ‘So, it wasn’t a fragrance. It was Rohypnol! ‘Damn it! How could she be so careless!Feeling the strength drain from her body, the dizziness intensified. Everything in the room seemed to blur out. Even the ‘Buddha-like face’ of Qiao Yongliang was becoming unclear…Jian Jianan never thought a person like him, so righteous and clean in the eyes of the public, would use such dirty tricks to get her! What a deceitful hypocrite!“You...let...me go…”Her energy slowly diminishing, her voice was weak, but it was enough to make Qiao Yongliang go crazy!His body stimulated with a response, and he impatiently dragged and dropped her on the b
Before Jing Yuanwu could figure out how Gu Mocheng bolted here so quickly, Gu Mocheng was already pulling Qiao Yongliang off Jian Jianan, and bringing his fist down on Qiao Yongliang’s face! Qiao Yongliang fell to the ground hard, and let out a painful cry!Gu Mocheng did not intend to stop there. He swung his foot at Qiao Yongliang and kicked him twice more!His face was terrible with rage. Excelling in the special forces, he called upon all his training, and in his wrath, it was devastating! Jing Yuanwu had never seen him so frightening. He was like an enraged cheetah unleashing its anger at a ruthless hunter! “Damn you! How dare you touch her!”His voice was hellish and cold, every kick and punch made Qiao Yongliang cry out even more miserably. Nothing made him go any easier on him; in fact, he only struck him harder! Qiao Yongliang was beaten severely to the point of passing out. The pain and Gu Mochenge’s merciless voice brought him back to respond! ‘Damn it, why is Gu
