The family culture which Gu Juexi was used to currently irritated him. Gu Juexi hung up as soon as he reached the apartment.
The weather outside was gloomy. Gu Juexi did not get down from the car immediately but sat in the car, deep in thought.
‘We need to talk?’ However, he simply had no time to talk to Ye Yuwei.
As Gu Juexi pondered Wen Jie’s words, his phone beeped. It was a video clip sent by Cheng Jie, showing Song Helian being whipped mercilessly as he cursed Cheng Jie and Yu Jiangqing.
His clothes were torn and drenched with blood, his head severely injured. Blood was streaming down his cheeks.
Gu Juexi clenched his fists tightly as he watched, his breathing quickening.
Not long after, Gu Juexi’s phone rang.
“I know Mr. Gu is still awake. Have you watched the video?” Cheng Jie asked mockingly.
Gu Juexi gripped his phone so tightly it could have broken apart.
“I don’t know what you mean,” Gu Juexi answered blankly and Cheng Jie burst into laughter.
“That person was so daring to mess with me. Since he is your subordinate, I was wondering if you wanted to intercede for him.” Cheng Jie was staring at Yu Jiangqing who was seated opposite him and was playing with his phone.
“He is not wrong for wanting revenge, is he? What goes around comes around. You know very well what you have done,” Gu Juexi replied tonelessly.
“Winner takes all.” Cheng Jie’s gaze was still fixed on Yu Jiangqing.
“As Mr. Gu and Mr. Yu always say ‘A wise man changes his mind, a fool never will’. Leader Song is truly stubborn.”
Yu Jiangqing raised his head as he put his legs on the coffee table.
“They never thought of me when they left me behind, why should I care about him?” Yu Jiangqing said carelessly.
“Mr. Yu is truly a wise man. How about you, Mr. Gu?” Cheng Jie asked.
Gu Juexi leaned back in the chair to calm himself.
“I left that place a long time ago. Not only that, I have lost twice to Mr. Cheng. How could I possibly intercede for him?” Gu Juexi responded as if he did not care about Song Helian.
“Many of my comrades have fallen into your hands. Recently, you have even targeted me. You seem confident that I am no match for you.”
“Mr. Gu is humble. I was just following instructions back then,” Cheng Jie said silkily.
Hearing his deceptive words, Gu Juexi remained silent.
“Since Mr. Gu does not want to intercede, let me do away with him,” Cheng Jie hissed ruthlessly.
Gu Juexi tightened his grip on the steering wheel, steadying his breathing to hide his fear.
“Be my guest.” Gu Juexi stated and hung up.
Hearing the line disconnect, the corner of Cheng Jie’s mouth lifted.
“Gu Juexi, I truly have overestimated you.” Cheng Jie threw his phone on the table and stared at Yu Jiangqing.
“It’s over. I am going back now if you have nothing else for me.” Yu Jiangqing put his phone in his pocket and got up.
