The bodyguard showed no mercy, raising his arm and bringing it down heavily, instantly knocking Gu Qingyan to the ground, where she let out a painful howl.
Another blow landed, and Gu Qingyan clearly felt a sweet, metallic taste spreading in his mouth. He couldn't help but shout, "Rong Mo! If you have someone beat me to death, then Zhi Qiu will never know the truth in her life!"
Have you ever thought about it?
Do you really want Zhi Qiu to live with regrets for the rest of her life?
Rong Mo remained expressionless and did not order a stop, so the bodyguards continued their brutal attacks.
Gu Qingyan's injuries from last time had not fully healed, and his physical strength was also insufficient, so he was completely powerless to resist and was soon beaten until he vomited blood.
"Stop." Rong Hong finally raised his eyelids, frowned slightly at Gu Qingyan, and said sternly:
"Gu Qingyan, I'll give you a chance. Hand over the video now and I'll let you go."
"I won't give it to you!" Gu Qingyan also became stubborn, raising her face and spitting a mouthful of blood onto the carpet. "Besides, I already gave instructions before I came. If the video is downloaded even once, it will activate self-destruct mode, so you can forget about getting it again."
"Very good. Keep beating him!" Rong Hong's eyes narrowed, and he commanded with a murderous look on his face.
Outside the villa.
The two cars sped into the Rong family villa, one after the other.
Xiao Lei, who was stationed at the entrance, immediately led a bodyguard forward to investigate the situation.
The Rong family's doctor quickly stepped out of the first car, followed by a nurse carrying a medical kit, and hurriedly prepared to head into the villa.
Xiao Lei recognized him, greeted him, and quickly made way for him, even helping the nurse carry the medical kit inside.
Gu Suian and Mu Ziqi, looking anxious, got out of the car behind. Huang Lin parked the car and got out of the driver's seat. He quickly ran to Gu Suian and said, "Chairman Gu, President Gu is inside, but I haven't received any response from calling or texting him. I'm worried something might have happened to him."
"What could possibly happen with Zhi Qiu? I'd be grateful if he didn't cause any trouble!" Gu Suian said coldly, clearly displeased.
"Take the supplements out of the trunk and hurry up and knock on the door," Mu Ziqi urged Huang Lin.
The bodyguard who had accompanied Xiao Lei stepped forward, scrutinized them, and asked warily, "Who are you people?"
“We are Zhi Qiu’s parents, here to see her,” Mu Ziqi said gently, then peered inside. “Is Zhi Qiu home?”
"Mom and Dad?" The bodyguard said sternly, "Our young lady's father is our CEO Rong! You're here to try and claim kinship again, aren't you? Humph!"
"Again?" Mu Ziqi keenly noticed this and said to Gu Suian, "It seems that Shen Yanshan has been here?!"
“I think so too. He walks quite fast!” Gu Suian’s expression was not good, but he wanted to go in quickly, so he explained to the bodyguard, “We are Gu Qingyan’s parents, here to see Zhi Qiu and the grandchildren.”
"Gu Qingyan's parents?!" The bodyguard's expression changed. He glanced at them with displeasure, said "Wait," and turned to walk towards the main entrance.
The two bodyguards who escorted Gu Qingyan to the door had also overheard the conversation, but they were restrained by the Rong family's bodyguards and could not step forward, so they could only shout loudly, "Chairman Gu, we're here!"
Gu Suian paused for a moment, then gestured for Huang Lin to go up and take a look.
Huang Lin strode over and, seeing the restrained bodyguards, his heart sank. He asked, "Didn't you go in with President Gu?"
"Yes, Mr. Gu told us to wait at the door," the bodyguard said. "He's been inside for a long time, but hasn't come out yet."
As they were talking, the door opened, and Xiao Lei came out. He looked at Huang Lin at the door and said, "Please bring Gu Qingyan's parents in. Our CEO Rong invites you in."
Gu Suian and Mu Ziqi were already walking quickly toward the door.
Xiao Lei held onto the door and made way for them.
Gu Suian and his wife quickly went inside, with Huang Lin following behind.
Xiao Lei came out and ordered the bodyguards stationed at the door, "Keep an eye on the bodyguards Gu Qingyan brought, and don't let them in."
After saying that, he turned around, went inside, and closed the door.
In the living room.
Gu Qingyan had already been helped up by the bodyguards and casually tossed onto the sofa.
Blood trickled from the corner of Gu Qingyan's mouth, his expression contorted in agony. He felt excruciating pain coursing through his entire body. Gu Qingyan frowned, but couldn't help letting out a muffled groan.
Gu Qingyan raised his hand to straighten his terribly wrinkled clothes. His hair was soaked with sweat and stuck to his forehead because of the pain.
"Qingyan?!" Gu Suian and Mu Ziqi had just entered the living room when they saw Gu Qingyan looking extremely disheveled.
Mu Ziqi covered her mouth, so shocked that she could not even speak properly.
Gu Suian frowned. Mu Ziqi hurriedly ran to Gu Qingyan's side, lifted his face, wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, and felt extremely distressed.
Gu Suian tried to remain calm, but the subtle twitching of his facial muscles betrayed his inner turmoil. After all, it was his son; how could he not feel heartache?
But before he could even launch his attack—
"I'm sorry, Uncle and Aunt." Rong Mo had already stood up and bowed slightly. "I had someone hit me."
Gu Suian was about to get angry when Mu Ziqi calmly pulled him back and looked at Rong Mo, trying to be as calm as possible, and asked, "What exactly happened?"
We were once family, after all. You're Zhi Qiu's older brother. I wonder if there's some misunderstanding here?
“Zhi Qiu is upstairs.” Rong Hong slowly stood up as a sign of politeness, but his expression remained serious. “Zhi Qiu’s wound just reopened.”
"The wound has reopened?" Mu Ziqi was stunned. "Didn't Zhi Qiu's C-section happen more than a month ago? Logically speaking, the wound should have healed by now, and it's absolutely impossible for it to reopen under normal circumstances!"
Before anyone could speak, Mu Ziqi cried out anxiously, "Where is Zhi Qiu? I need to go see her! How could this happen? Her wound has reopened, how painful that must be!"
"Gu Qingyan pushed Zhi Qiu, causing her wound to reopen." Rong Mo's tone was icy, and his eyes looked at Gu Qingyan as if he wanted to beat him up again.
"Is that so, Qingyan?" Gu Suian's eyelids twitched, and he immediately looked down at Gu Qingyan and asked, his voice several degrees colder.
Gu Qingyan pursed her lips, lowered her head, clutched her stomach, and remained silent.
This reaction was interpreted by Gu Suian and Mu Ziqi as tacit agreement.
Gu Suian raised his hand and slapped Gu Qingyan across the face, the sound of the slap causing Gu Qingyan's face to tilt to one side.
Huang Linxin trembled. Seeing that Gu Qingyan was still silent, he was unsure whether to step forward to mediate. But seeing Gu Suian's angry expression, he stopped and stood not far away to watch.
