Chapter 215 Seal

Inside the vast Gu family mansion, people in uniforms went in and out, carrying furniture and loading everything onto vehicles.

"What's going on? What right do you have to help my things?"

Gu Jianjun stared wide-eyed, rushed forward, and asked excitedly.

One of the people in charge of the mission spoke up: "You must be Gu Jianjun, right? This old house was originally assigned to Commander Gu by the military. Now that Commander Gu has passed away, the military naturally needs to take the house back."

"Take...take it back?"

Gu Jianjun could hardly believe his ears.

The reason he dared to mortgage his house to gamble was because he felt that since Old Master Gu was dead, the old house belonged to him completely.

Since that house was completely robbed and uninhabitable anyway, it doesn't matter if they've been robbed and taken away.

This old house is not only magnificent, but the furniture is also top-notch.

If he sells all his furniture and other possessions, and then gets some money from his brothers, he should be able to pay off his gambling debts.

In fact, Gu Jianjun was still dreaming of one day breaking even and making a fortune.

But now, watching those people in uniforms take care of everything, put a bag of his clothes and shoes outside the door, lock the door, and seal it, Gu Jianjun felt like the sky had fallen.

Without the old house, where will he live in the future?

Without the things in the old house, how will he pay off his gambling debts?

"You...you can't do this...you've sealed off this old house, where am I supposed to live?"

Gu Jianjun roared with all his might.

Unfortunately, the staff ignored him and got into their car and drove away after finishing their work.

Gu Jianjun stared at the seal on the old house door, unable to come back to his senses for a long time.

He didn't know how much time had passed when he remembered what the dealer had said when he left.

His expression immediately changed, and he picked up his clothes and luggage, intending to turn around and leave.

However, as soon as Gu Jianjun stepped out of the compound and turned a corner, he saw several men squatting there.

His heart skipped a beat, and he tried to back away, only to find that the path behind him was also blocked.

"What? You think you can run away just because you see us? Are you trying to renege on your debt?"

The man in the lead spat out his cigarette butt and asked with a sneer, "Where's the stuff we agreed on to pay off the debt? Is that what's on your back?"

As he spoke, he raised his chin, and his men behind him immediately pulled the bag off his body.

Upon opening it, they found only some worn-out clothes.

The man sneered, "What's going on? Where's the money to pay off the debt? You don't actually think these clothes are worth ten thousand yuan, do you?"

"I haven't received it yet. Give me some more time, I'll go out and collect it..." Gu Jianjun's face was pale, his eyes darting around, looking for a chance to escape.

Seeing the man behind him looking through his clothes, he tried to run away, but instead, he was caught.

"Trying to run away? Do you really think we brothers are just sitting around doing nothing? In that case, let's not hold back and do as Second Master says, break one of his arms!"

As the man finished speaking, one of his henchmen grabbed one of Gu Jianjun's socks and stuffed it into Gu Jianjun's mouth.

Then he grabbed a stone from the ground and smashed it hard against Gu Jianjun's arm.

"Crack!"

A sound like bones breaking was heard.

Gu Jianjun was in so much pain that the veins on his forehead bulged, and a heart-wrenching roar rose from his chest, but because his mouth was blocked, it just lingered in his throat.

"Heh...heh..."

In the dead of winter, the pain of broken bones soaked Gu Jianjun's entire back with sweat.

Those men casually tossed aside the stones in their hands and said coldly, "We'll give you one more day. If you can't raise ten thousand yuan by then, we'll break one of your legs!"

"I wonder how many more days your remaining legs and hands can hold out!"

Gu Jianjun lay on the ground for a full half hour before he finally got up.

Looking at the empty alley, he cursed those people countless times in his heart.

Then he thought of Dog Egg, who had taken him to the casino.

When he arrived at Gou Dan's house with his broken hand hanging limply and his messy luggage on his back.

But they found a group of people gathered around Gou Dan's house, eating, drinking, and having fun.

Many of them were Gu Jianjun's "good brothers" from his past drinking and card-playing days.

Seeing this, Gu Jianjun's eyes lit up; this saved him the trouble of searching for people everywhere.

However, upon hearing that Gu Jianjun had gambled away all his houses and that his old house had been sealed off, he was shocked to learn that Gu Jianjun had lost everything.

He was penniless and had come here to borrow money to pay off his debts.

All his "good brothers" immediately turned on him and kicked Gu Jianjun out of the room.

"You don't have a single penny on you, so you can't even treat us to drinks and meat, and you actually want to borrow money? Who gave you the confidence to think we'd lend you money?"

"Let me tell you, the reason we guys used to fawn over you was because your father was Gu Yuanchao. Now that your father is dead, you're nothing!"

"Right now, you're like a stray dog, with nowhere to even land."

"He not only has nowhere to stay, he doesn't even have a son or a wife. He's worse off than a dog! Hahahaha!"

Listening to my former good brothers and buddies from Japan, every single word they uttered was an insult.

Gu Jianjun felt a chill he had never felt before. These people had always been very generous to him, always showering him with compliments whenever they saw him.

Now that he's in trouble, not only do they not offer to help him, but they're actually mocking him like this!

He angrily stepped forward to argue, but was ruthlessly pushed to the ground by Gou Dan and his gang, and even beaten up.

Having already had his hand broken, he was completely powerless to fight back against the punches and kicks from the group.

They gave Gu Jianjun a good beating, and he just curled up and didn't dare to fight back.

Dog Egg and his gang didn't dare to cause any deaths, so they stopped after they had had their fill of beating.

Satisfied, they returned to the house and continued drinking and having fun.

They also mentioned Gu Jianjun's name from time to time, followed by a burst of mockery and ridicule.

Gu Jianjun struggled on the ground for a long time, like a dead dog.

Looking at the familiar capital city, I was surprised to find that I had nowhere to stay.

wrong!

He should have somewhere else to go!

Feeling utterly helpless, Gu Jianjun thought of his elder brother.

Once he goes to his elder brother's house, given Gu Yanxiao's status, the casino people will absolutely not dare to come knocking on his door to collect debts.

He might even be able to use Gu Yanxiao's status to force the casino to return the IOU.

Wouldn't that be killing several birds with one stone?
