Stealing Your Heart

Gu Bei’s tone was a little mean when he pointed out, “I won’t have come to you if B City has anywhere to hide the guy.”

Gu Huixin wasn’t brought up by her immediate family. Gu Bei, on the other hand, was the only son, so their parents had been spoiling him ever since he was born. Hence, he had virtually zero rapport with Gu Huixin. In fact, of all his sisters, he was only somewhat close to his eldest sister, who was also raised by the immediate family.

All that made Gu Bei a disrespectful man who assumed that everyone was supposed to help him.

Gu Huixin wasn’t happy with Gu Bei’s tone or his words, so she reminded him, “I am your elder sister.”

“I know. Why else would I come to you?” said Gu Bei. His voice carried no hint of appreciation or respect.

Gu Huixin closed her eyes and sighed deeply. Gu Bei doesn’t even have a clue to what I am talking about.

As far as Gu Bei was concerned, his family was just people he could take advantage of. He didn’t feel any family bonds and never learned how to love or be respectful.

“He will not be in B City. Instead, he will go to Baicheng. If you’re okay with it, we can meet up and talk about it tomorrow. If not, you will have to find another solution to your problem. My home is off-limit either way,” informed Gu Huixin clearly and sternly.

Gu Huixin truly couldn’t bring herself to love that baby brother of hers.

She didn’t even want to hang out with him. If they weren’t related, she would’ve completely ignored him.

Gu Bei almost lost his temper, but he was in deep trouble and had no other choice. If he did, he would not have gone to his sister in the first place.

Shen Peichuan’s men had been keeping Gu Bei under twenty-four-hour surveillance, and Gu Bei had lost his freedom. If that situation persisted, Number Four would be exposed, eventually.

Gu Bei was out of option and could only agree to those terms.

“Okay, I’ll allow that, but where is this Baicheng? Are you sure it’s safe?” asked Gu Bei, who still had his concerns because he had never heard of Baicheng before.

Gu Huixin was rendered speechless for a moment there.

“Baicheng is a smaller city. I’m only recommending that place to you because it is safe. There’s nothing I can do if you don’t believe me, though,” said Gu Huixin, who was about to hang up.
