1225 Threat 3

That tone sounded worn out and frustrated.

Having Ah Yong been by Gu Qiwu’s side for many years now, it seemed like he rarely revealed such emotions. However, right now by the looks of it, Ah Yong could not help but pity Gu Qiwu.

From what he remembered, his boss was extremely hard to fathom as he schemed a lot. In fact, he was very paranoid and found it hard to trust anyone. Of course, that included Ah Yong too. His boss was someone who did not like to talk much. Many times, even Ah Yong would find certain things he did quite odd.

He rarely saw Gu Qiwu truly happy as the man was usually uncommunicative and would keep to himself. He felt like he could never see through Gu Qiwu. Despite being by his side for many years now, he could not say that he truly understood Gu Qiwu.

He used to think that he truly loved his wife, Doris dearly, but now after the boss and Doris had a fallout, he never saw the boss grieve. Apart from being a little gloomy, he was practically the same as always.

He was rather cold and calm towards Miss Gu Lingsha too.

He did not even understand what Gu Qiwu was really trying to do or what he wanted!

Feelings?

Women?

Or money and power?

It did not seem like any of those!

If he really wanted money and power, it did not seem so.

Only Ah Yong knew that his boss would anonymously donate tens of millions to charity organizations every year. That amount was not something the usually rich and powerful would be willing to give away either!

Nonetheless, he did not continue thinking about it. Inhaling, Ah Yong walked up a few steps and then said softly as he carefully handed a nicely wrapped box to Gu Qiwu, “Boss, the Missus sent an express delivery and said it was a gift prepared specially for you!”

A gift?

When Gu Qiwu heard that, he paused. After a while, he breathed in and looked up weakly at the box before him…

Obviously he did not believe that Doris would give him a gift kindly. That woman wished he was dead!

Gu Qiwu sneered coldly, “Open it to see.”

Upon hearing that, Ah Yong nodded. “Okay, Boss.” Then, he took the scissors from the table and swiftly cut it open, taking its contents out.

Swoosh—

Before he could finish opening it, a voice was heard and some items slid out from the open gap. With the sound of some things falling, a few photos fell onto the floor!

Ah Yong was stunned, then he bent down to pick it up!

When he had a good look at who was in the pictures, his expression turned heavy. He immediately handed them to Gu Qiwu and said anxiously, “Boss, look! It’s the Missus and Miss Mu Lingshi!”

That was right. It was pictures of Doris and Mu Lingshi meeting up at the cafe!

Gu Qiwu took it to study them. Then, his stern face instantly tensed up and his expression turned solemn…

Someone as smart as Gu Qiwu obviously knew Doris’s intentions behind sending these over! She had looked for Mu Lingshi. That was equal to telling him that she would do something to Mu Lingshi.

This was not just to provoke Gu Qiwu, but it was a threat!

Naturally, Mu Yuchen definitely would not receive these pictures. Because this woman knew his thoughts, she would definitely come up with all sorts of ways to stop him from getting close to the Mu family.

He just did not know that Doris’s tricks would have gone to this extent, but was she planning on threatening Gu Qiwu with just these? She might have underestimated him now!

Gu Qiwu’s expression was gloomy as the sky before a storm as a cold smile flashed across his lips. He took a lighter from the side, calmly flicked it, and burned those pictures to ashes.

Ah Yong stood there quietly, not daring to say much.

As he watched the blue flames swallow the pictures, Gu Qiwu’s gaze was as cold as the snow that could cut through one’s bones too. He fell silent for a moment, then he took the phone from the table and quickly made a call to Doris.

While when she received Gu Qiwu’s call, Doris was not shocked at all!

Doris waited for a while, and when Gu Qiwu did not say anything, she said with a sneer, “Looks like you’ve received the things I sent you.”

Gu Qiwu’s eyes darkened for a bit, then he said coldly, “Doris, the court has already concluded our matters. Even if you’re not happy about it, you didn’t have to threaten me with Mu Lingshi. I know, I’m a cold person and I never cared about these things.”

“Whether or not you care isn’t just about what you say. Didn’t you say you cared about me before too? But now? I’ve seen through you, you despicable man. Gu Qiwu, I just want to take back what’s mine. Also, you just don’t care about Shasha’s thing at all, do you? I won’t hesitate to tell you that if you don’t find a way to get Shasha out, and if anything happens to her, I’ll definitely make sure your other daughter gets a taste of the same!” Doris’s voice was filled with provocation and confidence as she disregarded Gu Qiwu’s anger completely.

“Doris! You’d better behave! You can’t hide the truth from everyone. I have many ways of making you pay for it too if you dare to overestimate your own capabilities to threaten me!” Gu Qiwu said coldly through gritted teeth.

“Is that so? You make me so scared! But right now, you only have two options before you, so choose wisely! Gu Qiwu, do you know that you just don’t have the fate? Losing a son is God’s punishment for you, and now that Shasha’s like this, do you really want to fail at protecting your last remaining daughter too?”

“Since you’re so confident, we’ll just watch and see then. If you dare do anything to Mu Lingshi, the person who won’t let you off will be Mu Yuchen and the Mu family! You wouldn’t be so silly, but of course, if you want to dig your own grave, just pretend I never said anything!”

Pa—

He finished in a few sentences before Gu Qiwu just hung up.

When he saw Gu Qiwu’s expression looked even worse, Ah Yong carefully called out to him, “Boss…”

Gu Qiwu propped his heavy head up with one hand and took in a few deep breaths. The pain that came from his stomach made him instantly frown, so he subconsciously reached down to put pressure on where it hurt. His low raspy voice sounded weak too as he said, “I’m fine. Go out first.”
