Chapter 84 - 80: Lost

Because something happened to Qiao Lech, Qiao Yuxian’s plan to go out was canceled. Originally, Qiao Yuxian said she would stay for a night at the Qiao Family and return to Fenglin Villa the next day, but she didn’t go back. She stayed at the Qiao Family until the holiday ended. And until the holiday ended, she hadn’t seen Gu Yanjing. Su Qi could clearly sense that throughout the holiday, Gu Yanjing’s hostility grew heavier day by day. Mr. Gu from his house didn’t lose his temper at them randomly, but the hostility seemed to carry a blade, quietly delivering them a blow. Making them live in fear and in constant torment. The last day of the holiday. Su Qi, Meng Yan, and Shang Chen were rarely all at the company, so they gathered in Su Qi’s office to handle some affairs. Because they often followed Gu Yanjing around, in times when there wasn’t a necessity to speak, even if Gu Yanjing wasn’t present, they were used to staying silent and maintaining tranquility. Originally, the three were very quiet, Su Qi looked at the document and suddenly said, "When will the boss’s wife return?" Meng Yan was organizing the documents to be handed over to Su Qi, and upon hearing this, he looked up at him and paused for a moment. Shang Chen, sitting on the office sofa, was wiping a military knife, also turned to look, his composed face showing some confusion. Hearing no response, Su Qi glanced at the two of them and smiled, "Why are you looking at me like this?" Meng Yan withdrew his gaze, paused and said, "It’s just the first time we’re casually chatting, kind of not used to it." Shang Chen still looked at them without any reaction. Su Qi smiled again and said, "Maybe influenced a bit by the boss’s wife." Meng Yan also smiled, "When the lady wasn’t here, everything felt okay, everything was the norm. Ever since the lady came and then left for a few days. Suddenly, life feels hard." "So, when will the boss’s wife return?" Su Qi asked again. "Don’t dare to ask." Meng Yan said with lingering fear, "I’m afraid Mr. Gu will cut me." Su Qi raised an eyebrow, not saying anything more. They also hadn’t thought that their own Mr. Gu would like someone so much, and with such strong possessiveness. Shang Chen listened to the two chatting, and after a while suddenly asked, "Why do you guys wish for her return so much?" Su Qi glanced at him, patiently said, "Don’t you feel that Mr. Gu has been in a bad mood lately?" "Of course I’ve felt it." Shang Chen frowned, "But what does that have to do with Miss Qiao’s return?" Su Qi: "......" Meng Yan scratched his eyebrows a little helplessly. Seeing them silent, Shang Chen put down the military knife in his hand, his cold face slightly troubled, and said, "Do you think Mr. Gu has encountered something recently? Mr. Gu wasn’t like this before." As Shang Chen spoke, he suddenly became a bit excited, his voice involuntarily raised a bit, "Our Mr. Gu, although usually cold and serious, not much joking, never had this kind of continuously increasing phase before. Besides, what can’t he discuss with us?" Meng Yan: "......" Su Qi looked at him, after a while, clicked his tongue, then took a breath, just as he was about to speak, a call came in on the phone beside him. He glanced at the caller ID, it was from the Sixth Hospital. His expression tightened, immediately answering the call... When Su Qi went to the office, Gu Yanjing was having a video meeting. He saw Su Qi knock and enter directly, closed the computer, and asked, "What’s going on?" "Mr. Gu, the Sixth Hospital just called saying Aunt Yan went missing." Su Qi’s face turned pale, anxious, breathing unevenly, quickly saying the words. Gu Yanjing stood up immediately upon hearing the "Sixth Hospital." Upon hearing that someone went missing, his pupils shrank fiercely, his expression grew even colder, grabbed his phone, and walked out briskly, asking, "What happened?" Su Qi followed closely behind him, "They said after lunch, she went to rest. The people with Aunt Yan also slept during her rest, and when they woke up, Aunt Yan was gone." Gu Yanjing’s eyes froze. It’s been almost four hours since the nap. "The hospital has searched, the surveillance checked." Su Qi quickly said, "There’s only surveillance of Aunt Yan walking around in the hospital, then she vanished. They also checked near the hospital entrance, no news." "Gu Zhengyu and that woman." Gu Yanjing said coldly. "Being investigated." "Have everyone go out to search." Gu Yanjing instructed. "Yes." In the fastest time, checkpoints were set up at major intersections in the Capital City to inspect people leaving, some roads were closed. Gu Yanjing’s people spread around to find her. Gu Yanjing drove straight to the old mansion. Gu Zhengyu’s forces are fragmented and scattered, with some secret developments. Investigating him takes too much time. Direct questioning is most efficient. At the old mansion, he headed straight for Gu Zhengyu’s courtyard. Someone stopped him at the entrance, Gu Yanjing kicked him straight to the ground. Normally, Gu Yanjing is just cold, but now he is not only cold, but wrapped in an aura of blood and killing intent. As he entered the living room, Gu Zhengyu was sitting on the couch, polishing a antique vase. On the low table in front of him, there were also seven or eight bottles of various designs. All his private collection. Some are very valuable, some simply pleasing to the eye. Upon hearing footsteps, Gu Zhengyu looked towards the door, saw him. His first reaction was to put away the bottles. But before he could, Gu Yanjing suddenly appeared in front of him, grabbed his collar, and lifted him up. The strength was so much that he was lifted up directly, Gu Zhengyu’s hand lost strength, the bottle fell to the ground, emitting a crisp shattering sound. "Gu Yanjing!" Gu Zhengyu grabbed his wrist, angrily glaring at him. Gu Yanjing’s hand clenched his collar, the veins on the back of his hand bulged. His eyes were full of thick killing intent, "Did you go to the hospital to see my mother?" The voice was extremely light, carrying extreme patience and suppression. Seeing his look, Gu Zhengyu suddenly chuckled, "What? She went crazy again?" Gu Yanjing’s hand squeezed tighter. Gu Zhengyu stared into his eyes, eyes extremely similar to his mother’s, deliberately provoking, "She’s a lunatic, what’s worth me visiting?" Instantly, the surroundings froze, losing color. Gu Yanjing’s eyes turned red, his face was full of dark hatred. He paused for two seconds, then his hand directly grasped Gu Zhengyu’s neck. Choking his neck, dragged him turned, directly pressed him onto the low table in front of the sofa. The table shook, bottles near the edge fell off and shattered. Several others were directly crushed under Gu Zhengyu, forcibly smashed. All you could hear was the sound of bottles breaking. Whether it’s heartache or physical pain. Gu Zhengyu’s face suddenly turned pale, after a while, finally reacted. He grabbed Gu Yanjing’s hand, trying to pry it open. His breathing became more difficult. "Did you and that woman meet her?" Gu Yanjing’s voice grew increasingly sinister. "Gu Yanjing, do you want... to kill... your father...?" he said with difficulty. "Breaking loose!" Gu Yanjing said icily, "When I first discovered you fooling around behind my mother’s back, I should’ve killed you." Gu Zhengyu’s other hand grabbed a broken bottle, smashing it towards Gu Yanjing’s head. Gu Yanjing bent over, one leg on the low table. One hand choked Gu Zhengyu’s neck, seeing the bottle he swung. Eyes not even blinking, raised the other hand to block. The bottle just hit his fist, shattered. Gu Yanjing tightened his grip, Gu Zhengyu breathed no air, his whole body weakened, twitching slowly. "Gu Zhengyu, you owe my mom a life, also owe my sister a life." Gu Yanjing tightened his grip. Gu Zhengyu soon eyes rolled back. At this moment, Old Sir Gu’s anxious and worried voice suddenly echoed from outside, "Yanjing! Yanjing! Don’t act so impulsively! Don’t be impulsive!"
