Chapter 98: Aunt
Translator: _Min_
Song Ling had just left a few minutes ago when the door to the villa was opened once more. The creaking of the heavy door signaled the arrival of another group.
A number of burly men marched in, their steps firm and coordinated. They were holding a man, whose hands and feet were tightly bound, his mouth sealed with thick tape. Lin Sheng followed behind them, urging them to move faster. When they entered the living room, they unceremoniously threw the bound man to the floor.
The man, Su He, twisted in pain, his facial features contorted in agony. Because of the tape around his mouth, he could only make a few muffled “mm-mm” sounds.
Lin Sheng waved his hand to dismiss the bodyguards. As they filed out of the room, he addressed Gu Dai, “Miss, I’ve brought him here.”
Gu Dai and Meng Zhi walked out together, their eyes settling on Su He, who lay on the ground.
Su He’s face showed a fleeting panic when he saw Gu Dai, but he quickly calmed down, his eyes burning as they stared at Gu Dai.
Gu Dai said, “Uncle Lin, please take the tape off of his mouth.”
The moment the tape was torn off, Su He started taunting, “Beautiful lady, why did you have me tied up and brought here so late? Did you fancy me during the day but was too shy to approach, so you waited for the quiet of the night…?”
Gu Dai pressed a knife against Su He’s throat, her voice cold, “I don’t want to waste words with you. Answer whatever I ask, and don’t try to play any tricks!”
Su He looked down at his own neck, realizing that Gu Dai wasn’t joking. The sharp blade had already broken his skin, and fresh blood trickled out.
Terrified, he quickly stammered, without daring to move the slightest inch, “I, 1 will answer truthfully.”
Satisfied with Su He’s submission, Gu Dai temporarily withdrew the knife and picked up a snow-white handkerchief from the table beside her. She looked down, delicately wiping the blade, her voice soft but firm, “Did Gu Ming instruct you to tamper with my car?”
Su He shook his head, denying, “No, it wasn’t him.”
Gu Dai looked up slightly, her eyes coldly piercing Su He, her voice rising, “No?”
Meng Zhi, not believing him, moved forward, his imposing figure dominating Su He’s vision. He thundered, “You’ve come to this point, and you still want to defend Gu Ming? In that case, don’t blame us for being ruthless.”
Su He shivered, fear apparent in his eyes, but he still tried to deceive after his mind quickly turned, “1 don’t know about any car, and I didn’t tamper with your car. Besides, we’re related. How could I possibly tamper with your car?”
Meng Zhi didn’t expect Su He to lie, especially at this juncture. He lifted his hand and landed a punch on Su He’s face.
Meng Zhi said, “1 advise you to think before you speak!”
Su He’s head reeled from the blow, stars dancing before his eyes.
Gu Dai immediately detected an inconsistency and asked, “Who are you related to?”
Su He gathered his wits and quickly replied, “I’m related to you. Technically, I’m your elder cousin. We’re all family, how could I harm you?”
Meng Zhi couldn’t hold back his anger and landed another punch on Su He, disdainfully saying, “Who are you, you clown, to call yourself Daidai’s cousin? Do you think you’re worthy to be compared to me?”
Su He was knocked to the ground by Meng Zhi’s blow, and quickly protested, “But it’s not something I can decide. It’s a matter of blood ties!”
Gu Dai’s expression remained unaltered as she calmly questioned, “1 have surveillance footage of you near my car. I advise you not to waste your effort and just give up your pretense. Do you think your words are credible?”
Once, Gu Dai had believed that family would never harm her, but now the truth was gradually surfacing. The confirmation of Gu Ming’s involvement had made her realize that when it came to personal gains, there was no room for family.
Gu Dai said, “You said you’re my cousin, but I’ve never heard that Gu Ming has a son. So, are you his illegitimate child?”
Su He, feeling the burning pain all over his body and hearing Gu Dai’s stern warning, dared not lie again. He confessed honestly, “I am Gu Si’s son.”
Gu Dai’s eyes narrowed, her gaze chilling, “Gu Si’s son?”
Su He turned his head to avoid Gu Dai’s penetrating stare, but even so, he could still feel her intense eyes probing him.
Finally, he could no longer bear it and confessed, “I am the son she bore out of wedlock, her illegitimate child..”
