Chapter 279 The Ugly Truth
Gu Yuji's face turned extremely ugly when he heard this.
He didn't want to pay the price that the Queen Mother asked him to pay before, but he didn't expect that after the person died, another person would ask him for the price.
"You don't seem to have asked what the price is?" Gu Yuji said.
The Red Dragon King's answer was casual: "What she wants must not be something mundane. It is probably something you can afford but are reluctant to give her."
Gu Yuji's face looked extremely ugly.
The Red Dragon King, however, looked confident of victory and said, "Speaking of which, your father was able to rise to prominence many years ago because of my guidance. Now that you are paying me this price as a representative of the Gu family, I will certainly not let you down."
Gu Yuji forced a smile and said, "I'm actually very curious why my father moved to the mainland after making his fortune in Hong Kong."
The smiling Red Dragon King suddenly frowned upon hearing this and said, "People are shaped by the land and water they live in. If he wants to leave Hong Kong City, it must be because the mainland will bring him more prosperity."
Although the two reached a cooperation intention, they both had reservations. The Red Dragon King was reluctant to talk about the past, and when Gu Yuji asked about the details of the Queen Mother's death, he deliberately concealed Xu Youyou's role in it.
"It's true that the eagle keeper got her eyes pecked by an eagle. Who would have thought that she would lose her life because of a simple ritual." The Red Dragon King sighed softly.
Gu Yuji immediately said: "After all, she is a woman, so she is always a little less thorough in doing things."
The Red Dragon King agreed with this and said, "I will do what she cannot do, but you must not forget the price you have to pay."
Gu Yuji was reminded by him again and again, and the expression on her face became extremely ugly.
After returning to the hotel, Gu Xueying was about to ask about the results of today's meeting when Gu Yuji pushed her against the wall.
"Give me another child." Gu Yuji said.
Gu Xueying's face turned pale. She recalled the last time she had a miscarriage for no reason. She felt that her body had not yet recovered: "We...we are not doing this right...you have never thought of marrying me..."
Gu Yuji laughed softly when he heard this: "Why, aren't you afraid of the world's eyes? You actually want to walk with me in the sun? Aren't you afraid of the pointing fingers of those people in the upper class?"
Gu Xueying pursed her lips tightly. Of course she was afraid, but she had just been dumped by Chai Wei, and the Gu family had been tricked by the Star Diamond Group behind Chai Wei. Everyone in the Gu family was angry with Gu Xueying, and she now desperately wanted to grab something.
"I'm not afraid anymore. I just want to be with you for a long time..." Gu Xueying raised her little face, her eyes seemed to be filled with tiny starlight.
Gu Yuji suddenly reached out and covered her eyes, leaned close to her ear, and said in a low voice: "Little liar, even though I know you are not sincere, why do I still want to believe you so much?"
Gu Xueying didn't know what to say for a moment.
"Give me a child, and when the child is born, we will get married abroad. I can let you live a rich life for the rest of your life." Gu Yuji said.
When Gu Xueying heard this, she couldn't help but feel resentful. She was indeed afraid of a hard life, but living a rich life abroad, away from her original circle of wealthy families, what was the difference between this and walking at night in brocade clothes? She couldn't understand: "Why do you have to let me have a child?"
When Gu Yuji heard this, she looked at her strangely and said, "Of course it's because the children we give birth to are very important to them."
"Who? Who are they?" Gu Xueying didn't understand.
"In the past, it was the Queen Mother who wanted it, and now it is the Red Dragon King who wants it." Gu Yuji explained openly.
Gu Xueying's child was not born yet, and she had not even been conceived. When she heard this, a sense of fear suddenly arose in her heart.
These two people wanted her child and would never do anything good with it.
"After all, this is our own flesh and blood. Why are you..." Gu Xueying said with red eyes.
Gu Yuji's face was full of cruel innocence, and she said casually: "There will be more children. I never knew that you had such a kind side."
Gu Xueying felt as if she didn't know the person in front of her: "Why does it have to be my child?"
She felt more and more that Gu Yuji was a devil in human skin.
Gu Yuji was indeed a devil. He lowered his voice and leaned close to her ear and said, "Our child, with our relationship, this child will be born with original sin. For them, such a child is no different from stimulants."
"What kind of relationship do we have?"
Gu Yuji smiled and said, "We are blood relatives."
Gu Xueying's eyes suddenly widened. She almost thought there was something wrong with her ears. She couldn't understand what Gu Yuji was saying at all.
"I am... I am your family's adopted daughter... You and I... You and I... can't be biological siblings..." She stammered, not knowing what to say next, as if life had played a huge joke on her.
But she soon realized something else: "Then Xu Youyou and I were switched...was it someone who did it on purpose?"
Gu Yuji laughed and said, "Of course, the Gu family has physical examinations every year. Dad and mom both have type A blood, and they can't give birth to a child with type AB blood. Why did mom find out that you are not her biological child after so many years? Of course someone is deliberately hiding it from her."
Gu Xueying felt as if her whole life was a game set up by others. What was even more terrifying was that she had no idea what position she played in the game.
She had been living in the Gu family as far as she could remember. The Gu family also kept all the photos of her since she was a baby. Her three brothers were not much older than her, so the person who completed the substitution was almost obvious.
"Why did Dad do this? If he liked my mom, he wouldn't just watch her go crazy. If he didn't like my mom, why did he deliberately switch me and Xu Youyou?" Gu Xueying asked.
Gu Yuji spread his hands and said, "Why are you asking me about this? You should ask Dad."
Gu Xueying felt like her head was about to explode.
Xu Youyou's plane had just landed in Shanghai, and Assistant Liu was already waiting at the airport.
"Ms. Xu, Mr. Lu has been very busy recently. He hasn't had a good rest for five days. Please forgive him for not coming to pick you up in person." Assistant Liu said apologetically.
Xu Youyou originally wanted to go home and rest, but after hearing this, she paused and said, "I won't go back to Tomson First, I'll go directly to his company."
