Chapter 43: The Ace in Hand, Heart-to-Heart
Qin Bingwu's pupils were shocked.
Her almond-shaped eyes widened as she stared at the man in front of her.
In the light, she could clearly see the seriousness in his eyes, not lust.
"Mr. Gu, you...what do you mean?"
Seeing her hands tightly clutching her collar, he thought that his temptation today was indeed too much. Facing the girl's clear eyes, he turned away in a panic:
“I didn’t have the lights on at the time and didn’t see anything.
I just want to prove my suspicions about you. If you follow my lead, I can let you leave the Gu family."
But he misjudged his own inner feelings. After she escaped, he clearly felt the needs of his body. He thought that he had lost control because he had abstained for too long. However, later he heard that her phone was turned off and she did not go home.
The worry at that moment really hit him.
On the way to find her, the anxiety in his heart made him clearly know that this woman had successfully controlled his emotions, but he still restrained himself to be rational.
Don't get played with anymore.
Seeing her teasing the Qin family and refusing to compromise or give in, until later, when I heard her say that she would not let the Gu family be entangled by vampires, all the barriers in my heart seemed to collapse.
She is fine.
“The fourth brother called me, and I knew I misunderstood you, so I came here… I wanted to help you sever your ties with the Qin family, but you refused.
Although I don't understand, I respect it. Since I haven't been able to help you in this regard, you can make other requests. This will be my compensation to you."
Gu Siyan rarely owes others anything. He used to think that Qin Bingwu was very capable, so he owed her money again and again and she paid it back again and again.
Now I just feel that I deserve it.
Qin Bingwu listened to his explanation word by word and was so shocked that it took her a long time to find her voice.
So, she is safe?
The fingers that were gripping the collar loosened, but still held on:
"...Then you just... told my dad and the others that I didn't deserve those words..."
Gu Siyan explained:
"It can be seen that you hope to let the Qin family think that you are not living well in the Gu family."
This was the result of his several surveillances. At first, he thought that she would use the Gu family as her umbrella to protect her, but the result was beyond her expectations.
If there was no fourth brother or anyone else to interfere, she would just want to make herself worse off than she was in the Qin family.
He may not have known why she did this before, but today, he understood:
"I'm just cooperating with you. I hope I haven't made things worse."
Qin Bingwu felt relieved and her vigilance disappeared.
It's not that she wasn't on guard, but someone as noble as Gu Siyan didn't need to tell her these lies.
A man like him can get whatever he wants by using money, power and force.
There is really no need to coax or deceive her like this.
"No, no, it's just right that you said that. They shouldn't come to bother me for a while."
Qin Bingwu guessed what the Qin family's reaction would be, and she couldn't help but feel happy:
"Then could the eldest young master please tell the fourth young master not to be so... so considerate of me in public, especially in front of the Qin family? As a form of compensation for me?"
Qin Bingwu originally wanted to say that he was so good to me, but considering that what Gu Siyan mentioned today was not the issue of siblings, Qin Bingwu thought it would be better to change it to appear less intimate.
Facing Gu Siyan's deep and inquiring eyes, Qin Bingwu explained:
"The Fourth Young Master is a passionate young man who stands up for the weak and has a straightforward personality. I'm very grateful that he has taken care of me several times and prevented me from being wronged. However, if he orders me around in front of the Qin family, I believe that my family members will be convinced of my difficult situation. This will also prevent them from targeting the Gu family, right?"
Gu Siyan raised his left hand, placed it on the steering wheel, and asked quietly:
"You used to take good care of the Qin family and always responded to their requests. Why did you change after coming to the Gu family?"
The suspicion in his heart has never diminished, largely because the contrast between her previous behavior in the Qin family and her behavior after coming to the Gu family was too great.
It seems like they are two completely different people.
Qin Bingwu didn't think he would suspect that she was a reborn person, but she also had to find a convincing reason for her contrast:
“I just saw it clearly.
It’s not that I didn’t ask for anything in return from my family before, it’s just that what I asked for was insignificant in your eyes, young master.
I hope to get their recognition, praise and acceptance.
But what I got was their betrayal and abandonment.
After I arrived at the Gu family, the old lady and the four young masters all showed their kindness to me and were very nice to me.
I have never felt the love of my family. I received favoritism from the old lady, and I want to repay the care that the fourth young master has given me, so I must not cause them any trouble. "
"Since you don't want to be entangled with the Qin family, why do you refuse to cut off ties with them? Tens of millions are nothing to the Gu family."
Qin Bingwu opened her mouth, not daring to say a few words about what she was really thinking at the time. At the time, she thought Gu Siyan wanted to buy her to be his secret bedmate, but other reasons still accounted for the majority:
"Tens of millions? Young Master thinks too highly of them.
Not to mention that they will definitely ask for too much this time, and I don't want to owe the Gu family such a big favor that I can't repay, and I don't think they will really abide by a piece of paper."
After her rebirth, she thought of this method:
“I’ve checked the law, and blood ties cannot be dissolved. Even a fair severance letter is invalid, and a statement published in the newspaper is also invalid.
They know that if the Gu family is willing to pay once, they will definitely pay a second time. The more they know that the Gu family values me, the more they will regard me as their trump card. "
Gu Siyan knew that the law did not recognize it, but he felt that with the influence of the Gu family, the Qin family would not be so bold as to provoke:
"What will you do in the future? Are you willing to be pestered by them forever? You even told them that you're willing to support them..."
After witnessing the Qin family's expressions with his own eyes, the man's eyes showed a hint of worry. Looking at her small face as big as a palm, his heart also felt distressed.
Qin Bingwu smiled and nodded:
"The law stipulates this. If support is required, I will not evade it, but how to provide support is my business.
If they are sick, I will send them to a mental hospital.
If they become paralyzed, I will let them go hungry for three meals in two days, and I can also feed them feed.
Moreover, I have so many brothers. If we really need to support them, we should share equally. The law is fair. I believe that no matter how much I pay, asking them to pay will only make them more miserable."
Gu Siyan was a little surprised: "Don't you think it's troublesome?"
Qin Bingwu had already thought about it. When she had enough strength, she could go abroad or find a deep mountain forest to confine them. There were many ways:
"Trouble? Seeing them struggling in pain, giving them a little hope and watching them struggling to climb up, I don't think it's troublesome at all."
For the first time, Qin Bingwu revealed her secret thoughts to others. It was like a beast that had been suppressed for a long time and trapped in a cage. Today, it was accidentally opened by this man and she could no longer control herself.
Perhaps it was because she had already made her camp clear and would never become a threat to the Gu family, or perhaps it was because of the kindness shown to her by this man today that made her get carried away.
Thinking of this, the smile on the girl's face seemed to be frozen in a glacier for thousands of years, layer by layer of ice and stiffness, and then shattered.
There was a hint of desolation in her eyes, and the smile on her lips was filled with bitter self-mockery:
"Is it bad of me to say that?"
