Stealing Your Heart

Gu Bei paused before he added, “Don’t forget that your uncle isn’t able to help you anymore. He has lost his job. No, you should be rivals now. So what if Shen Peichuan is now the deputy chief? If I want to, I can ask my father to remove him from the position. What can you do?

Can you implicate me for what Number Four has done? Previously, I escaped unscathed. I can do the same this time. As I said, if you’re willing to apologize for hurting me, I can forgive you. We can mind our own businesses from now on. But of course, if you want to be my friend, I’ll welcome you with open arms.”

Apologize to him?

Lin Xinyan parted her lips to say something, but Zong Jinghao grabbed her hand and shook his head, telling her to calm down.

The man looked straight at Gu Bei as his jaw hardened. “No one can touch anyone from the Zong family. Mr. Gu, you might have a powerful backer, but no matter how powerful you are, you should have a weak spot, right?”

He leaned back lazily and scoffed. “You’re disgusting enough to send those photos to my wife and kidnap her friend. I believe you should be the one to apologize, am I right?”

Gu Bei gritted his teeth. “You’re crossing the line!”

He should be the one apologizing to me!

“Crossing the line? The man in the temple should be your henchman, right? Don’t you know what he did to my friend?” Lin Xinyan chimed in as she clenched her fists. It was getting hard for her to calm down.

“If you really want to resolve all the differences, you need to apologize for the kidnapping incident which caused the fatal car accident and bear the consequences. You should also hand over the person who hurt my friend. Well, I think we can forgive you for sending those photos and pretending to save me back in C City.”

“Is this a joke?” Gu Bei was mad at Number Four as he had gone to Qin Ya without informing him. The fool wanted to take advantage of her, but she had escaped instead. Gu Bei wanted to punish this fool, too. No one knew how furious he had been when he saw the news.

However, he couldn’t just hand him over just like that. “If I hand him to you, who else will want to work for me? The car accident was an unfortunate accident. I wasn’t even the mastermind. The mastermind has paid the price, hasn’t he? Why won’t you let me off?”

If he handed Number Four over to them, his other men would be utterly disappointed. No one would want to risk their lives for him anymore.
