Chapter 143 He's Trying to Kill Me

It is Lu Jingxiao.

Following behind him were Gu Beixiao, Gu Yulin, Gu Youran, Li Huaijin, and Gu Hancheng.

When Luo Zhiwei saw them, she felt relieved and a look of surprise appeared on her face!

"Ranran, Lu Jingxiao, save me!"

Luo Zhiwei blurted out again, as if possessed: "Third Master Gu wants to pull out my tongue and cut off my hands and feet, that's terrifying!"

Gu Hanchi: "..."

“You impersonated my elder brother’s child, shouldn’t I deal with you? I just wanted to give you money so you could leave the capital.”

Lu Jingxiao ignored everyone's explanations. He strode forward, kicked the butler to the ground, and dragged Gu Hanchi up like a dead dog. Gu Hanchi looked extremely disheveled, his face filled with humiliation.

"Since you promised not to harass Weiwei in the first place, why did you have no sportsmanship and resort to kidnapping? You're asking for death!"

Lu Jingxiao became furious, wishing he could stab Gu Hanchi to death with a single blow.

God knows how desperate he felt the moment he received the call.

He was discussing the project with his grandfather in the study, but he felt uneasy and couldn't sit still in the study. He thought he should go out for a walk, and just as he stepped out of the study, his phone rang.

Gu Youran wouldn't call him for no reason. The moment he answered, he felt like the sky had fallen.

He left Weiwei's side for just over an hour, and then Weiwei was kidnapped.

If Gu Youran hadn't reacted quickly and understood Weiwei well enough, they might have missed the chance to save her due to the information gap.

Gu Hancheng quickly stepped forward to stop Lu Jingxiao, glaring fiercely at the manor's bodyguards: "Hurry up and release him!"

He turned to look at Lu Jingxiao, his voice trembling slightly: "Jingxiao, let's talk this out, don't do this, your third uncle..."

Lu Jingxiao didn't listen to anyone. He took out his other hand from somewhere and pressed it against Gu Hanchi's neck. His bloodthirsty red eyes were filled with murderous intent: "What did you want to do to my Weiwei just now?"

Gu Hanchi couldn't utter a single word, and Gu Youran wouldn't give Gu Hancheng a chance to plead for his brother.

"Lu Jingxiao, are you hard of hearing? He wants to pull out Weiwei's tongue and cut off her hands and feet. You need to teach him a lesson right now! This despicable scum is scaring my Weiwei!"

Lu Jingxiao curled his lips into a wicked smile, his tongue pressing against the roof of his mouth: "Is that so?"

"Then don't even think about it..."

"No, Lu Jingxiao, no, he's your elder!"

Lu Jingxiao spat without any mercy, then turned to look at Gu Hancheng with resentment: "Uncle Gu, all these years, you've been willing to be the one who's deaf and blind, but don't treat us like your own kind."

"In the end, it's you who owes him. What does it have to do with us? He hurt my people, so he has to pay the price."

Lu Jingxiao had no intention of letting the matter rest: "Gu Youran, stay with Weiwei and check if she's injured."

If Gu Hanchi were even slightly injured, his crime would be compounded!

Gu Youran walked over to Luo Zhiwei's side very cooperatively. Her eyes were full of concern, and her tone was a little aggrieved: "Weiwei, are you alright? You scared me to death."

Luo Zhiwei simply shook her head slightly: "I'm fine for now, only my wrist hurts... it's red from being strangled."

ah--

Lu Jingxiao acted immediately, slashing Gu Hanchi's wrist: "My Weiwei's hand is red from being squeezed, is that your doing?"

He didn't even confirm before taking action.

Gu Hancheng looked at Lu Jingxiao with a tense expression and roared angrily, "Lu Jingxiao, that's enough! Luo Zhiwei is perfectly fine. How dare you treat my third brother like this? You...you want to make an enemy of the Gu family?!"

"Uncle Gu, you've probably forgotten that the Gu family isn't under your control anymore. I won't be an enemy of the Gu family, but I will be an enemy of you and Gu Hanchi!"

Anyone who touches him is courting death!

Luo Zhiwei suddenly spoke up: "Lu Jingxiao, release him first, I have something to ask him."

Whoosh—Lu Jingxiao obediently threw the person out, glancing at Gu Hanchi with disgust: "You should thank my Weiwei, otherwise... I would definitely take your life today."

He walked quickly to Luo Zhiwei, his eyes filled with heartache and self-blame: "Baby, if you feel uncomfortable anywhere, or if you are injured anywhere, you have to tell me."

Lu Jingxiao felt a lingering sense of shock and pulled the person into his arms: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I shouldn't have left you, I'm sorry, I'm sorry... It's all my fault."

Enveloped in familiar scent, Luo Zhiwei felt a sudden surge of security, and she even softened, letting Lu Jingxiao hold her. She gently comforted him, "Lu Jingxiao, it's not your fault, don't blame yourself."

She lingered in his embrace for two minutes before pushing him away: "I have something to ask Third Master Gu..."

Luo Zhiwei walked up to Gu Hanchi, with Gu Hancheng beside him, his face full of anxiety.

He demanded sharply, "Luo Zhiwei, you're perfectly fine, so why is Lu Jingxiao treating my brother like this?"

Although Luo Zhiwei had no feelings for the person in front of her, the thought that he was her biological father still made her feel a pang of sadness, especially since this biological father was so fiercely protecting someone who wanted her dead. She almost forgot to be sarcastic.

She had no hope for Gu Hancheng; she just wanted to confirm one thing: "Third Master Gu, my car accident today wasn't an accident, was it? You had it all planned out, having someone force me to stop and bring me here."

"Third Master Gu, President Gu promised that no one from your Gu family would harass me until the matter from more than 20 years ago was thoroughly investigated. You failed to keep your promise, no, you never intended to abide by it from beginning to end."

"You had me arrested, initially intending to have me deported, right? Too bad I exposed you. Are you trying to silence me?"

Before Gu Hanchi could refute, Gu Hancheng stood up as if he had been electrocuted and accused Luo Zhiwei: "You are talking nonsense. How could my brother possibly want to kill you? I guess... I guess he just wants to talk to you. If he really wanted to kill you, he would have done it already."

Luo Zhiwei was so angry that she laughed. When someone is extremely angry, they can actually laugh.

Is there any need for a biological father like this?

"Uncle Gu, Mr. Gu, Gu Hancheng, do you know why I said this? Do you know whether the good brother in front of you is a human or a ghost?"

"Of course I know!" A look of guilt appeared on Gu Hancheng's face: "My third brother has sacrificed too much for the Gu family and even for the country. His leg was caused by my wrong orders, but all these years, he has never complained. Apart from some extreme behaviors, he has never hurt anyone!"

Luo Zhiwei spat out, "Idiot, you fool who's been kept in the dark!"

"Gu Hanchi always believed that my mother was the woman you had a relationship with back then, so the child died after my mother gave birth. Tell me why!"

"Furthermore, he was trying to kill me. Was Lu Jingxiao wrong to retaliate?" Luo Zhiwei's rebuttal left Gu Hancheng speechless, and he even forgot to think.
