Chapter 259:1 know what I’m doing


Translator: _Min_ |


Gu Dai fixed her gaze on Zhou Gang. “Tell me, who hired you to ambush me?”


Zhou Gang scoffed coldly. “No one. I did it myself!”


Gu Dai’s eyes grew colder. Zhou Gang shivered, but still stubbornly met her gaze.


Seeing his defiance, Gu Dai stepped on his back.


Meng Zhi, smiling, admired her action. “Daidai, well done!”


Gu Dai said, “You’ve just gone bankrupt, entangled in a lawsuit with your wife, drowning in debt. Even if you had the energy to target me, you wouldn’t have the money, unless someone was backing you.”


As she spoke, she increased the pressure on her foot.


Zhou Gang was flattened to the ground under Gu Dai’s heel. He thought Gu Dai would be easier to handle than Meng Zhi, but the pain on his back intensified manyfold, draining his face of color.


Gu Dai asked indifferently, “Who was it?”


Zhou Gang clenched his teeth. “Forget it, I’ll never tell you! You’ve ruined me to this extent, I—Ah!”


Gu Dai’s high heels were sharp, unbearable for anyone. Zhou Gang’s pain was so intense, it felt like his body was no longer his own.


Gu Dai stated, “You don’t have to say it. I can find out myself. As for what happens to you, I can’t guarantee.”


Frightened by her words, Zhou Gang hurriedly said, “I’ll talk! I’ll talk!”


Gu Dai lifted her foot, looking down at him. “Speak.”


Zhou Gang took a few deep breaths, then rushed to say, “It was Gu Zhi. She gave me the money and told me to deal with you. It’s all her fault. Go after her and let me go!”


Gu Dai’s eyes dropped. “Gu Zhi… already in the hospital and still not behaving.”


Zhou Gang, seeing Gu Dai’s silence, panicked. “Can I leave now?”


Meng Chuan had a different idea. “Daidai, letting him go so easily might be too lenient. Should I teach him a lesson he’ll never forget?”


Gu Dai shook her head. “Second Brother, we live in a society governed by law, and with your special status, you can’t do such things.”


Zhou Gang, relieved by her words, breathed deeply, flattering her. “Miss Gu, even after all my wrongdoings, you’re willing to let me go. You’re as kind-hearted as a fairy descended from heaven!”


Gu Dai frowned, trying to interrupt him, but Zhou Gang spoke faster.


“You’re so perfect, and you and Mr. Song Ling are a perfect match. You’ll surely be happy together, with many lovely children…”


Gu Dai, her face cold, bent down and punched Zhou Gang.


Meng Chuan and Meng Zhi, also displeased, said coldly, “Daidai was kind enough to spare you, and yet you curse her with such vile words!”


Gu Dai said coldly, “I was thinking of not holding you accountable, but I’ve changed my mind.”


Meng Zhi quickly offered, “Daidai, let me handle it. Being found out will affect the company.”


Meng Chuan nodded in agreement.


Gu Dai, seeing their concern, said, “Second Brother, Third Brother, don’t worry. I know what I’m doing. I won’t break the law.”


Meng Chuan and Meng Zhi both sighed in relief.


Gu Dai’s icy gaze swept over Zhou Gang. “Don’t link me with Song Ling, not even by name.”


Zhou Gang was completely frozen, unable to comprehend what he had said wrong. He couldn’t fathom why things had taken such a turn. He had intended to offer his blessings to Gu Dai and Song Ling – why, then, was she angry?


Though he didn’t understand, he quickly slapped himself, crying, “Miss Gu, I was wrong. I’ll never mention you and that person together again.”


Gu Dai’s gaze lingered on Zhou Gang before she slowly spoke, “I can spare you, but you have to do something for me.”


Zhou Gang asked fearfully, “What is it?”


Gu Dai looked down, “It’s simple and won’t make you break the law. If you do it, I’ll let you go. Will you?”


Although Zhou Gang was in a state of despair, not wishing to live, he also didn’t want to die in agony. He nodded repeatedly, eagerly agreeing, “I’ll do it, I’ll do it, yes, I will do it.”


Gu Dai nodded, satisfied, and quietly shared her plan with Zhou Gang.


Zhou Gang immediately a.s.sured her, “Don’t worry, Miss Gu, I’ll complete it perfectly!”
