Chapter 1215: As Long As Nian Nian Is Safe for a Lifetime
"Stop!" The woman furrowed her brow, her expression instantly becoming agitated.Chi He had no intention of stopping. He gently pressed down, and a vicious red trickle seeped from the middle-aged man’s neck.
"Beicheng, make him stop, what are you going to do?" The woman’s gaze fell on Gu Beicheng.
Gu Beicheng raised his large hand, signaling Chi He to stop.
"The opportunity was already given to you. You didn’t appreciate it!"
His indifferent words stung the woman’s heart.
Yet, Chi He could tell how painful Seventh Young Master’s heart was at this moment.
A mother not seen for twenty years appeared and forced Seventh Young Master to choose life or death between his mother and wife. How could his mood be good?
"So? Are you going to make the call?" Gu Beicheng lightly furrowed his brow.
After twenty years, to hear his name called again by her, what kind of feelings did Gu Beicheng have? Apart from him, no one truly knew.
Yet, this man had not an ounce of sentimentality, only coldness.
"I didn’t expect you to threaten me like this!" The woman took a deep breath, her face full of helplessness.
"Shouldn’t you ask me why I won’t let Xia Yinian exist?"
"No matter why, she wasn’t born then; she’s innocent." Gu Beicheng’s voice sounded again.
"I’m saying it again, cancel the deal immediately, name your terms freely!"
Gu Beicheng probably had guessed some insights, but that was something from twenty years ago, and Nian Nian is only eighteen this year.
So, all grievances and grudges couldn’t have been caused by her.
Looking at her son, Qiu Yan lifted her head slightly, holding back tears.
"Alright, name my terms freely, is that right?" She lowered her head, a bitter smile appearing at the corners of her mouth.
"Yes, I only want Nian Nian to be safe forever." Gu Beicheng nodded assuredly.
"Alright." Qiu Yan nodded, pulling out her phone and dialing a number, "Cancel the deal, I’ll add half more as a penalty fee."
"Yes, confirmed. Stop immediately, yes, I’ll arrange it today."
After the call ended, Qiu Yan casually placed the phone on the table.
Finally, the matter came to an end, and Chi He couldn’t help but breathe a sigh of relief.
There’s about an hour’s time difference between Yaoshan and Bing City. Hopefully, everything will be in time.
"Alright, can they be let go now?" Qiu Yan looked at the tall boy opposite her, who looked very much like herself.
"Let them go." Gu Beicheng glanced at Chi He and stood up.
He reached into his pocket and drew out a business card, placing it on the coffee table.
"This is my phone number. Lady Chou, if you think of something you need from me, feel free to call anytime."
As soon as he finished speaking, Gu Beicheng turned and walked towards the exit.
Chi He watched the man’s departing back, utterly astonished.
They achieved their goal; it’s time to leave. However, isn’t the woman in front the madam? Shouldn’t Seventh Young Master have many unresolved issues?
At the very least, he should greet her, shouldn’t he?
Moreover, Seventh Young Master clearly knew the madam was using a false name, yet he still addressed her as "Lady Chou"? Chi He was utterly baffled.
After hesitating for a moment, Chi He glanced sideways at Qiu Yan before striding forward to catch up.
"Beicheng." Qiu Yan also couldn’t comprehend her son’s attitude.
Softly calling, she hurried after him.
"Seventh Young Master, that is obviously the madam, you..." Chi He practically ran to barely keep up with Gu Beicheng’s pace.
"Don’t you need to have a proper conversation? Maybe there’s been a misunderstanding?"
