Chapter 76: Demon and Angel

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Lu Zhiyuan was shocked. He was so angry that he cried? The little one was usually like a wolf cub, fierce and ruthless, so how could he not handle teasing?

Gu Ziyu wiped his tears expressionlessly. His face was red, but there was no sadness in his eyes. Chen Fei was confused. “Baby, don’t cry.”

Gu Ziyu vigorously wiped away his tears. “Annoying. Why won’t it stop?”

Chen Fei was speechless. “If you weren’t sad, it would stop.”

“I’m not sad. I’m not sad.”

Chen Fei was straightforward. “Then why are you crying?”

Gu Ziyu pointed to his eyes. “Ask them. They’re crying on their own. What does it have to do with me?”

Chen Fei was confused.”?”

After Li Jiang followed Lu Zhiyuan out of the elevator, he couldn’t help but comment.

“Third Young Master, you’ve gone too far.”

“He’s not Gu Ci’s son. It’s none of my business if he reacts so strongly,” Lu Zhiyuan said playfully. “Don’t you feel a sense of accomplishment when you make him cry?”

Li Jiang thought to himself, “Third Young Master, you’re truly peculiar!”

After Gu Ci woke up from her nap, she felt much better, and the dizziness had subsided. She got up to stretch her muscles and bones, lifting her hospital gown to inspect her lower abdomen. There was a large patch of purple bruise that still caused pain when she touched it.

Jiang Junlin knocked on the door and entered. He frowned and appeared extremely displeased.

Gu Ci was surprised. “Brother, how did you find out?”

Jiang Junlin approached her swiftly. The corner of Gu Ci’s mouth was split, and her face was bruised. She looked utterly pitiful. Jiang Junlin’s anger was contained. “Gu Yaozu deserves to die!”

“He’s more injured than I am,” Gu Ci remarked.

Jiang Junlin inquired about her condition, and Gu Ci told him the truth. He looked at Gu Ci calmly. “Why didn’t you dodge when Gu Yaozu hit you?”

He had witnessed Gu Ci’s formidable skills when they were in Haicheng.

Gu Ci knew she couldn’t hide it from him, so she had no choice but to tell him the truth. “I had a small conflict with Lu Zhiyuan. I wanted to feign innocence so he wouldn’t pursue the matter. Who would have thought I would go too far?” “You…”

Before Jiang Junlin could finish speaking, the door to the ward was forcefully pushed open. Lu Zhiyuan stood at the entrance with a dark expression, glaring at Gu Ci. Gu Ci’s whole body stiffened. One thought echoed in her mind. “I’m finished!”

Lu Zhiyuan was so angry that he laughed. “Gu Ci, you… Very good!”

He turned and left, tossing the breakfast he had lined up early in the morning into the nearby trash can. Gu Ci chased after him for a few steps, but her headache flared up again. Jiang Junlin hurriedly helped her lie back down.

“Cici, what’s wrong…”

Gu Ci endured the wave of dizziness. “I’m fine.”

She picked up her phone and dialed Lu Zhiyuan’s number, but he hung up. When she called him a third time, Lu Zhiyuan blocked her. Gu Ci was shocked. In her previous life, even after she was released from prison, they quarreled constantly before they got married. She had provoked him multiple times, but Lu Zhiyuan never blocked her.

He was truly angry. The kind of anger that was difficult to soothe.

Gu Ci’s plan to hurt herself had utterly failed. She had been punched and kicked, further fueling Lu Zhiyuan’s anger. Gu Ci was at a loss. “I’m so unlucky.”

Jiang Junlin was both furious and distressed. “Look at your state. Why did you resort to self-inflicted harm with such a honey trap? Why did you have to hurt yourself?”

Gu Ci’s expression turned a bit complicated. To Lu Zhiyuan, the self-inflicted pain ploy was a hundred times more effective than a honey trap. He had a strong willpower and a resilient heart. As long as he didn’t want to be swayed, he would remain calm.

The self-inflicted pain tactic had been tried and tested.

“Brother, please stop scolding me. I’m truly unlucky.”

The doctor came by to examine her. The blood clot in her brain had dissipated, and there were no major issues. She would need to stay in the hospital for one more day for observation before being discharged. After Jiang Junlin left, Gu Ci called Li Jiang.

“Where is your Third Young Master?”

Li Jiang responded, “Third Young Master is racing like a madman. Miss Gu Ci, you’re truly one of a kind. Only you can make him this angry.”

Gu Ci wondered if that was a compliment.

“He’s in a fit of anger. Racing laps can be very dangerous.”

“Miss Gu Ci, I can’t persuade him. You should try to talk to him yourself.”

Gu Ci helplessly hung up the phone. She sent Lu Zhiyuan a message on WeChat, only to receive a reminder that she wasn’t his friend and would need to add him first. Gu Ci’s headache worsened.

“So childish!”

If he was angry, then let it be. Why did he block her?

In the afternoon, Jiang Junlin, Jiang Minghua, and Lin Chunli came to visit her. The elder master was with the old lady. They were old and concerned that knowing about Gu Ci’s injury would dampen their mood, so Jiang Junlin chose not to inform them.

Lin Chunli was afraid that Gu Ci would have no one to care for her, so she took the initiative to stay and look after her. Gu Ci politely declined, seeing that Lin Chunli was uncomfortable. Lu Man and Gu Chuyun came to see Gu Ci, but they were stopped by Jiang Junlin.

She didn’t know what Jiang Junlin said to them, but Lu Man and Gu Chuyun never bothered her again.

Gu Ziyu couldn’t hide the fact that he hadn’t been home for two nights. He gently applied medicine for Gu Ci. “Mom, does it hurt?”

“It doesn’t hurt. It’s just a minor injury.” Gu Ci reassured Little Yu.

“I’m not angry.” Gu Ziyu smiled innocently and cutely, easing Gu Ci’s worries.

As soon as Gu Ziyu stepped out of the ward, his expression darkened. He asked Chen Fei, who had followed him, “I want you to break Gu Yaozu’s ribs!”

“Ziyu, you can’t.” Chen Fei responded, “He made a mistake, and there are laws to punish him.”

Gu Ziyu raised his head and smiled sweetly. “Brother, I was just joking.”

Chen Fei was left speechless.

When Gu Ziyu returned to the Global Center, he yawned. “I’m not in a good mood. I’ll take a break from training today. I want to rest.”

Chen Fei had no objections. After Gu Ziyu went upstairs, he called Ji Meng. His voice turned cold and indifferent. “Have you arrived in A City?”

“Baby, I just landed at the airport.”

“Come pick me up. Something has happened.” Gu Ziyu’s eyes gleamed with a chilling coldness.

Ji Meng wore a white shirt, pants, and black-and-white casual shoes. His harmless and captivating face made him resemble a university student. Standing in front of the car, he captured 100% attention.

Gu Ziyu descended the stairs with his tablet. This was the first time Ji Meng had seen Gu Ziyu in person. He looked even younger in real life than in the videos. This aura… Ji Meng thought to himself, he’s so much like Third Master.

“Hey, baby…”

Gu Ziyu also smiled sweetly. He was even more harmless than Ji Meng. “Hello, brother. I’m Gu Ziyu. Nice to meet you… You’re younger than I thought.”

In his previous life, when Gu Ziyu first met Ji Meng, Ji Meng was already thirty years old. Now, Ji Meng was only twenty-one, wearing a clean white shirt and possessing clear eyes. He seemed so young that Gu Ziyu himself felt a sense of unfamiliarity.

“You know how to smile? Then you’re unlike Third Master.”

Gu Ziyu sweetly smiled once again, melting Ji Meng’s heart. “What can I do for you?”

“Just a small favor.”

“No problem!” Ji Meng said, “There’s nothing big brother can’t do.”

Gu Ziyu looked at him sincerely. “Brother, you’re amazing!”

Ji Meng was touched by his cuteness once again and felt that Ziyu was a lovable little sweetheart. At eleven o’clock at night, Gu Ziyu brought him to the hospital. They arrived at Gu Yaozu’s ward and hacked into the surveillance camera at the door.

Ji Meng asked, “Who’s he?”

“He’s not important.” Gu Ziyu turned around and smiled. “He will soon be a corpse..”
