Is anyone home?
A young man's voice rang out from the doorway.
Gu Baiwei's heart started racing instantly. If someone came, could she call for help or ask someone to call the police?
But she hesitated.
Having just witnessed Qi Yu kill that woman without batting an eye, Gu Baiwei was unsure whether asking for help now would implicate others.
Before hesitating could react, Qi Yu's cold voice came from outside the door: "Who are you? What are you doing at my doorstep?"
"Hello sir, I am a courier from JD.com. This is your package."
The young man in work clothes smiled and handed over the package.
Qi Yu glanced at it and frowned: "You delivered it to the wrong unit. This is Unit Two."
The young man checked the address again carefully and realized that he had indeed delivered it to the wrong address. He quickly apologized and left.
Qi Yu slowly took out his key and opened the door. Two punk-style thugs drove Qiang Ge out, their eyes inadvertently meeting Qi Yu's, and they immediately looked away. This kid is crazy.
The three of them were just local thugs who at most intimidated newcomers, swindled them out of protection money, and occasionally did petty theft like buying things without paying. But they never expected to run into a tough nut to crack today.
The three of them left dejectedly, and as they went downstairs, they ran into Long San, who was wearing a delivery uniform and leaning against the stairs smoking.
The old building has no elevator, and the stairs are very narrow. A big man was blocking the way, and they couldn't get through at all.
"Hey, delivery guy, move aside."
One of the henchmen opened his mouth to reprimand someone, but before he could finish speaking, Long San grabbed him by the collar and shoved the burning cigarette butt into his mouth.
"ah……"
The younger brother let out a short scream, then Long San covered his mouth: "Shh, I'm asking you something. Shut up if you don't want to die."
The two henchmen immediately nodded frantically, and even the dazed Qiang Ge next to them was forced to nod by the two men.
Long San swiped his phone a couple of times, spreading the photo out in front of the three of them: "Did you see this woman at that kid's house just now?"
The two henchmen immediately shook their heads. They were standing behind Brother Qiang at the time and hadn't seen the situation inside the house at all, let alone that it was a woman.
"And you? Did you see it?"
Long San slapped Qiang Ge across the face, forcibly reviving the dazed man.
Long Ge opened his eyes groggily, thinking it was that pervert Qi Yu again, and cursed, "Damn it, you brat, I'll kill you... Ahhh... Good sir, have mercy!"
Before he could finish his harsh words, Long San pressed down on the wound he had just been stabbed in, and he almost fainted from the pain.
"Quiet down and answer the question."
Long San withdrew his hand expressionlessly.
"Look... I see her, it's this woman, in the living room."
After speaking cautiously, Qiang felt that the person in front of him was no different from the pervert from before.
They've really had a terrible day. They just wanted to collect protection money honestly, so why is it so difficult?
Having obtained the information he wanted, Long San raised an eyebrow: "Get lost."
The three of them left immediately, full of gratitude. In just a short while, Brother Qiang had turned pale from blood loss. As soon as they got downstairs, they didn't care about anything else and immediately dialed 120.
Long San watched the three leave, then took out his phone and dialed a number...
At the same time, Qi Yu had already opened the door.
The moment the door opened, Gu Baiwei's hand, which was behind her back and holding a plunger, tightened, and her fingertips turned white.
But in the end, she didn't use the plunger, not because it was disgusting, but because she discovered that Qi Yu had a knife.
After weighing the disparity in strength between the enemy and herself, she decided to take a longer-term view, since rushing in now would be tantamount to offering herself up as food.
Qi Yu smiled and extended her hand to her: "Sister, come here, I'll take you somewhere."
Gu Baiwei hesitated for a moment, but still obediently placed her hand on his.
Qi Yu reached out and tightly grasped her soft hand, his smile becoming even more genuine. The desires he had once been unable to express gradually became real at this moment.
Holding Gu Baiwei's hand, he walked forward step by step.
Gu Baiwei's original house was a three-bedroom, one-living room layout. One room was for her, one room was for her parents, and the other room was a study.
Qi Yu led her to the study door and opened it.
Gu Baiwei's eyes widened instantly when she saw the scene inside the room. "Is this guy crazy?"
The walls of the study were covered with photos, all of them of Gu Baiwei, at various ages.
She remembers that she was only seven or eight years old when they broke up, so why do they even have photos of her when she was a teenager or in her twenties?
"Sister, do you like it?"
Qi Yu pulled her into the room and showed her the photos on the wall like they were treasures.
Gu Baiwei, however, was not in the mood for that at all, because she had noticed earlier that there were three urns on the table in the middle of the room, with photos of her, her parents, and others on them.
Just then, Qi Yu walked up to the table and reached out to stroke the urn with her photo on it: "Sister, I'll take good care of your aunt and uncle's ashes. How about you break up with that guy surnamed Chen?"
Gu Baiwei's expression slowly froze. Apart from her and Shen Yanqing, no one else knew about their relationship. How could he know? Had he been spying on her all along? The thought sent a chill down her spine.
"Sister, answer me, my patience is limited."
Qi Yu's gaze towards her still carried a smile, but that smile inexplicably sent chills down one's spine.
Gu Baiwei's face instantly darkened: "Are you threatening me?"
"No, I'm begging you, sister."
The boy still wore a gentle smile, but at the end of that smile lay a chilling coldness.
Seeing that Gu Baiwei had not responded for a long time, Qi Yu impatiently placed her finger on the urn next to her and tapped it: "Sister, I told you that my patience is limited."
Faced with this blatant threat, Gu Baiwei took a deep breath and gritted her teeth: "Fine, I agree."
Upon hearing this, a smile appeared on the boy's pale face. He took out his phone from his pocket and handed it to her: "Sister, come on, let me see your sincerity now."
Under his gaze, Gu Baiwei could only dial Shen Yanqing's cell phone. The call was answered immediately after just one ring.
"Weiwei, are you alright? Where are you?"
Shen Yanqing's deep, magnetic voice came from the other end of the phone. Even through the receiver, Gu Baiwei could still sense the tension in his tone.
The usually calm and collected head of the Shen family, who had never been nervous even in life-or-death situations, was now holding his phone with a slight tremor in his hand.
After a pause, Gu Baiwei took a deep breath and said, "Shen Yanqing, let's break up."
Shen Yanqing immediately guessed what was going on: "Is there something you're hiding?"
As expected of a big shot, his insight is truly remarkable.
Gu Baiwei sighed inwardly, but faced with Qi Yu's warning gaze, she could only bite the bullet and say, "No."
