"Can we do it today?"
I was a little puzzled. "Is there such a rush?"
"What do you think? If you were locked up in a detention center, you'd probably wish you had even a second longer."
His words disgusted me so much that I couldn't help but retort: "I'm not like some idiots who are both incompetent and pretentious, and end up in jail for their own stupidity."
The atmosphere froze instantly.
I didn't care whether he was happy or not, and continued, "Now that you're begging me, at least be nice and show some sincerity."
After a moment, Gu Yanqing spoke again, his attitude indeed improving: "Didn't you want to break off our relationship as soon as possible? You should issue a letter of understanding as soon as possible, and I'll go with you to complete the transfer of ownership of the villa."
I couldn't help but smile slightly.
Surprisingly, he's quite pragmatic these days.
Before I could even begin to negotiate, he brought it up on his own initiative.
"Okay, but you have to complete the transfer of ownership with me first before I can issue a letter of understanding."
I have absolutely no trust in Gu Yanqing. I'm worried that he'll go back on his word and keep me hanging, so I have no choice but to blackmail him first.
"Jiang Wan, can't you tell which of these two things is more important?" Gu Yanqing got angry again, and his tone became sharp.
I downplayed it again: "For me, things that directly affect my interests are more important. How long your sister stays in the detention center is none of my business."
"..." There was silence on the other end of the phone, clearly speechless with anger.
“You can think it over carefully. If you think it over quickly, there's still time today. If you take your time, it will have to wait until tomorrow, and then your sister will have to suffer for one more day…”
"Okay, let's go to the government service center now and complete the transfer."
I smiled with satisfaction, hung up the phone, told Xiaoyingtao what I needed to do, and then hurried out the door.
Returning to the government service center, I had mixed feelings.
I remember the last time I came here, just as I was about to complete the transfer procedures, Jiang Yi appeared in a menacing manner.
I managed to slip away in time and escaped unscathed. Jiang Yi vented her anger on Gu Yanqing, splashing a cup of hot cocoa all over him.
When I came back today, everything had changed; Jiang Yi had passed away.
I arrived first and waited for about ten minutes. Just as I was wondering if Gu Yanqing was going to stand me up again, he finally arrived, sitting in his wheelchair.
His secretary followed.
Once inside, his secretary stepped forward to his side, handed him an eco-friendly paper bag, nodded respectfully, and quietly took her leave.
Gu Yanqing's wheelchair is electric, and he can control it himself.
He moved closer to me in his wheelchair, picked up the eco-friendly paper bag in his hand, and said, "Your favorite drink, hot cocoa. You didn't get to drink that one last time."
