The night descended heavily, making it hard for people to breathe.
The sea breeze was strong, and the sll of the ocean was particularly intense as it hit their faces.
Chi Yu was helped onto the boat by Dao An and that bodyguard, with Gu Yuan following closely behind. But at that mont, Wen Bo’s people caught up, blocking the ship, and Gu Yuan’s group was surrounded and unable to leave.
Gu Yuan turned to look at Wen Bo at the top of the stairs: "Most of the credit in the docunt listed by Fang Yumin goes to you, uncle. Now, aren’t you satisfied and planning to turn against us?"
At this mont, Wen Bo stood akimbo at the top of the stairs.
Just about ten ters away was Gu Yuan’s rescue boat, and they hadn’t boarded yet.
Wen Bo let out a cold laugh, looking down at Gu Yuan as though he was a god looking down on ants, then put on a mocking sobbing expression: "Don’t bla uncle, uncle was forced into this."
The sobbing expression only lasted for a mont.
Then, Wen Bo raised a hand and said, "Tie her up for ."
Wen Bo’s n obeyed, and just as they were about to close in on Gu Yuan, and when Wen Bo thought Gu Yuan had no room to resist, an unexpected scene unfolded...
Gu Yuan raised a gun and aid it at Wen Bo.
This startled Wen Bo, whose face turned pale imdiately upon seeing the gun in Gu Yuan’s hand. He staggered backward and fell onto the steps, babbling incoherently, "Gu, Gu, Gu Yuan, don’t do anything rash."
Not just Wen Bo, but also the few n ready to seize Gu Yuan were all flustered and dared not advance.
No one even dared to question the authenticity of the gun in Gu Yuan’s hand!
Gu Yuan smiled and said, "What’s uncle afraid of? This is just a toy gun ant to scare you."
The words fell.
Wen Bo’s face turned black as his cowardice beca a joke, supporting himself as he got up from the steps: "I knew it, you, a woman, can’t possibly know how to use a gun. If you dare, Gu Yuan, I tell you, your life will be over."
"Really?" Gu Yuan smiled, cocking the gun in her hand.
At the mont when Gu Yuan cocked it, the chanical sound echoed.
Everyone turned pale, retreating in jagged steps.
Wen Bo widened his eyes, as the sound of cocking wasn’t sothing a toy gun could make, revealing that Gu Yuan wasn’t joking—it was indeed a real gun...
The sea breeze tangled Gu Yuan’s hair, letting it dance wildly in the wind.
Her expression was cold and stern, dangerous, as she aid the gun.
Behind her stood the panicked Dao An, along with the shocked bodyguard, who even as a bodyguard did not have the privilege to easily wield a gun. But now President Gu held a real one indeed.
Gu Yuan asked, "Uncle was in such a hurry to catch up, was it to kill and silence us?"
Fearing accidental misfire, Wen Bo had his n form a human shield to protect him. Despite their fear, they blocked their boss.
Wen Bo chuckled dryly to cover up: "What are you saying? I’m your uncle, and you’re my niece. No matter how worthless uncle is, he wouldn’t want to harm you, would he?"
While saying this, Wen Bo tried to persuade Gu Yuan, "People may have eyes, but guns do not. Gu Yuan, we can talk things over nicely. Put the gun down first."
Gu Yuan tilted her head, the smile gone from her face, leaving only endless coldness: "Uncle really loves to joke. If I put the gun down, wouldn’t that an handing my life over to uncle?"
In such a tense situation, everyone knew what could happen.
Wen Bo didn’t expect Gu Yuan to bring a gun.
Gu Yuan didn’t expect Wen Bo to really want her life.
This trip today, she knew Wen Bo would pursue the victory, make excessive demands, and ask for many rights, but she never specifically thought whether Wen Bo would want her life.
It seed she still harbored so familial affection in her heart.
But at this mont, Wen Bo personally wiped that familial bond clean.
Wen Bo, hiding behind the human wall, dared only to poke his head out to confront Gu Yuan, speaking tremblingly: "I devoured Weilan back then. What you saw was only a small part of my ambition."
"If only back then, when I wanted to join the Gu Family, you agreed, it wouldn’t co to this fish die or break the net situation."
"Gu Yuan, you damn well always looked down on , insulted , made lose face every ti. I’ve long thought about how to bring you down, trample you underfoot. You think you’re so capable? The Gu Family you control was left to you by your short-lived dad."
"Those in the company, each and every one of them, listens to you out of respect for Gu Yuesheng, because otherwise, do you think they’d let a woman rule over them?"
