Chapter 25: Obsessive Childhood Sweetheart's Forced Pampering - Let You Run Away!
An hour later, the taxi arrived at the Gu family's house.
The once brightly lit Gu family home is now deserted and desolate, devoid of any human presence.
Gu Shanshan stood at the door, staring at the court seal on it, momentarily speechless.
Two elderly people were walking their dogs not far away, and Gu Shanshan ran over to them.
He stopped in front of the two people, panting, and politely asked, "Hello, could you tell me where this family went? What happened here? Why was it sealed off by the court?"
The two elderly people, seeing that Gu Shanshan was pleasing to the eye, tugged at her hand and asked in a low voice.
Who are you to this family?
Gu Shanshan's face stiffened, and she didn't dare to say that she was the son of this family.
He told a lie: "I'm a relative of this family."
Upon hearing this, the elderly couple breathed a sigh of relief and pulled Gu Shanshan aside to comfort her.
“Young man, listen to your grandmother’s advice. Don’t go near this family anymore. They’ve committed a crime, and their house has been sealed off. I heard that their family members have been arrested and imprisoned, and one of their sons has run away and owes a lot of gambling debts. Now, every day during the day, people come to their door demanding money. If you don’t want to be caught and hurt by those people, you’d better leave quickly.”
"He actually... went to jail!"
Gu Shanshan's expression changed slightly. Recalling what Assistant Wang had said, she guessed that this might be the grand gift they were talking about.
He didn't understand what Gong Ye was up to, or why he was helping him teach the Gu family a lesson.
"Young man, are you scared out of your wits?"
The old lady saw that Gu Shanshan was stunned, and waved her hand in front of him.
Gu Shanshan snapped out of her daze and forced a smile as she thanked him.
"Thank you, I'm fine now, I won't bother you any longer."
As he spoke, he stepped aside.
The elderly couple didn't say anything more and walked away with their dog.
Gu Shanshan thought for a moment, then climbed over the wall and went inside.
The Gu family has collapsed, and he has no money now. He still doesn't know how to pay for Jiang Ziheng's medical expenses tomorrow.
In just one day, he had no way of finding the money.
I just want to climb over the wall and see what valuable things are inside.
After struggling to climb over the wall, they found that the place had been ransacked and all the valuables had been taken away and auctioned off by the court.
He went inside and searched around, but found nothing except a watch in his father's drawer.
Gu Shanshan couldn't understand the watch, but she put it on her wrist intending to sell it.
He found several dozen yuan in the room he used to live in and stuffed it into his pocket.
He climbed over the wall again from the same spot, but accidentally twisted his ankle.
He cried out in pain, "Hiss..."
Clutching his swollen and aching ankle, he limped away, intending to leave.
......
In the shadows, inside a black car, Assistant Wang closely watched Gu Shanshan's every move.
After seeing that Gu Shanshan had climbed over the wall and was injured, he called Gong Ye to report it.
“Mr. Gong, Madam has gone to the Gu family. Everything is proceeding according to your plan. However, Madam twisted her ankle when she climbed over the wall to get out.”
Gong Ye coldly ordered, "Ignore him, keep an eye on him. I will not allow any mishaps to occur in the plan."
"Understood, I will keep an eye on it personally," Assistant Wang replied respectfully.
Gu Shanshan had no idea that all her actions were under Gong Ye's control.
He still had some money left, but he didn't dare go to the hospital, fearing he wouldn't be able to afford the medical bills.
This is a villa area, and it's very quiet. You'll only see one person every ten minutes or so, and there are very few passing vehicles.
The night was cool. When Gu Shanshan climbed over the wall, he had found some clothes to wear, but since he hadn't been back for many years, he didn't have any extra clothes besides the ones he had brought back with him.
The clothes he brought were all summer short-sleeved shirts and jeans, washed until they were ripped and faded. So even though he hated Gong Ye, he was still wearing Gong Ye's coat over his clothes.
Dressed so thinly, I was shivering in the cold as I stood in the night.
I stood there for a while, but no taxis passed by.
Gu Shanshan could only keep walking forward, praying that he would encounter a car, otherwise he would freeze to death.
Because of the sprained leg, he was walking with a limp, and every step he took caused severe pain in the sprained area.
But he could only grit his teeth and endure it.
Gu Shanshan was inwardly mocking herself for living such a miserable life so soon after leaving Gong Ye.
As I was walking, a man wearing a hat and mask suddenly appeared from the side.
The man was moving too fast and knocked Gu Shanshan to the ground.
Seeing Gu Shanshan knocked to the ground, the man spat in disgust.
"That damn idiot!"
He kicked Gu Shanshan's leg hard, "Hey, can't you watch where you're going? You dare bump into me, watch out or I'll..."
He fell silent when he saw Gu Shanshan's face.
Pointing at Gu Shanshan in disbelief, she exclaimed, "It's you!"
That familiar voice belonged to his elder brother, Gu Linfeng.
"Gu Linfeng, what are you doing here!"
Gu Shanshan stood up in fear and took a few steps away from Gu Linfeng.
He originally thought that the old couple meant his son from his previous marriage when they said one of their sons was on the run, but it turned out they were referring to Gu Linfeng.
It's a classic case of enemies meeting on a narrow road. Last time, he kicked Gu Linfeng at the airport, and that's how they started their feud.
Gu Linfeng held a half-smoked cigarette in his hand, and his body reeked of cheap cigarettes and alcohol.
His face was unshaven, and his clothes were tattered.
He seems to be having a bad time lately, a stark contrast to his previous appearance in a suit and tie at the airport.
"Gu Linfeng, I have something to attend to, so I'll be leaving now."
With that, he walked past Gu Linfeng and ran away.
"Pooh!"
Gu Linfeng spat and threw the cigarette in his hand on the ground.
He roared at Gu Shanshan's retreating figure, "You little bitch, you fucking ruined me and now you think you can run away! I'll break your legs!"
With that, he took off after her.
Gu Shanshan didn't dare to turn around at all; everyone says that desperate criminals are terrifying.
Gu Linfeng looks like a desperate fugitive right now.
If he catches you, he'll definitely be in big trouble.
But his leg was twisted, and no matter how fast he ran, he couldn't outrun Gu Linfeng, who was already stronger than him.
A few minutes later, Gu Linfeng caught up with Gu Shanshan.
He kicked Gu Shanshan straight in the back.
"ah......"
Losing her balance, Gu Shanshan screamed and fell forward in a disheveled state, landing hard on the ground.
Gu Linfeng immediately stepped on Gu Shanshan's back.
He kicked her several times viciously, yelling, "You little bitch, you think you can run away? You think you can run away? I'll beat you to death!"
After hitting Gu Shanshan several more times, Gu Linfeng finally stopped.
I glanced around and didn't see anyone suspicious.
He then picked Gu Shanshan up from the ground, grabbed her by the collar, and dragged her directly into a dark alley.
"What do you want to do, Gu Linfeng? I'm warning you, I'll call the police..."
Before Gu Shanshan could finish speaking, Gu Linfeng knocked her unconscious with a stick.
He caught Gu Shanshan's falling body, carried her on his shoulder, and walked around the surveillance area.
Since the Gu family company went bankrupt and all their assets were auctioned off and seized by the court, he has been searching the entire neighborhood to avoid being captured.
He knew where the surveillance blind spots were, and he knew how to leave quietly with someone.
During this time, he lived in an underground casino, gambling with the little money he had left, always hoping to turn his life around with a single bet.
Later, he even borrowed money from loan sharks.
But after gambling for so long, he not only failed to turn his fortunes around, but instead accumulated more and more debt.
He was beaten up by the casino's thugs today and thrown out of the casino.
He now owes several million dollars. The casino said they would give him three days, and if he didn't pay, not only would his hands and feet be cut off, but his organs would also be dug out and sold.
Gu Linfeng was frightened.
He used to be the young master Gu, but now he's a rat everyone wants to beat.
All of this was caused by Gong Ye.
Gu Linfeng thought, it must be that little bitch Gu Shanshan who betrayed us and got Gong Ye to deal with the Gu family.
He hated Gong Ye to the core, but due to Gong Ye's power, he dared not act rashly and could only vent all his anger on Gu Shanshan.
He just didn't expect to be so lucky.
He had just returned and was planning to rob a few people when he ran into Gu Shanshan, whom he hated to the core.
It's like someone handed him a pillow when he was sleepy; even God is on his side.
Having spent so many days at the casino, he had already heard that the casino boss was a homosexual pervert who liked men.
Gu Shanshan is a pretty little bitch. If he ties her up, maybe he can please that boss and get his gambling debts forgiven.
After handing Gu Shanshan over to that boss, he then called Gong Ye and extorted ten million.
He took the money and immediately fled, never to return to that godforsaken place.
Upon arriving at his dilapidated lodging, Gu Linfeng couldn't wait to take out his phone, snap a picture of Gu Shanshan, and send it to her. He then immediately called the casino manager.
"Hey, is this Dong-ge? I have some top-notch stuff here. I just sent you the photos. The boss will definitely like this little slut."
After hearing something said over there, Gu Linfeng's expression changed.
He stammered, "But, I can't go. This...this isn't a good idea."
"If there's anything wrong with that, then we'll do it this way. My people will come to find you right away, just wait!"
After saying that, the other end of the phone hung up.
Gu Linfeng was somewhat bewildered.
I hung up the ringing phone, and then I heard footsteps outside the door, followed by a series of rough knocks.
Gu Linfeng's right eyelid twitched violently.
Not knowing who the person outside was, I was so startled that I dropped my phone on the ground.
"Hey, people inside, open the door quickly!"
"You guys..."
Before I could even ask a question, the wooden door was kicked open from the outside.
Several tall men appeared in front of Gu Linfeng and surrounded him.
One of them saw Gu Shanshan lying unconscious on the ground and whistled.
"Tsk, this guy is quite good-looking."
