My Ceo Husband is Sworn Enemy - Chapter 250
Chapter 250: Chapter 250 Give You Half a Day to Consider _1
His deep black eyes, they are hell itself!
It’s him!
Actually, by the time I reached this point, I had already guessed what was happening.
I regretted coming here. I shouldn’t have sought him out.
Just as our eyes met and I was preparing to leave, I didn’t expect Wu Lijuan to lose her composure and show up as well.
Seeing Gu Yuanzhou, she hurriedly rushed towards him.
I wanted to stop her, but was too late. Wu Lijuan kneeled in front of Gu Yuanzhou in haste.
“Yuanzhou, I beg you, you must save your uncle! If you don’t lift a finger to help, he’s done for!”
I glanced back at Gu Yuanhzou. The bosses were coming out of the conference room.
Upon seeing Wu Lijuan kneeling, contempt, scorn, and even malicious joy spread across their faces.
Their gaze resembled wolves eyeing a lone lamb…
However, in her desperation to save her husband, Wu Lijuan had long since set aside her dignity and status.
She pleaded with Gu Yuanzhou repeatedly.
“Yuanzhou! For the sake of Ayun, for the sake of the two children she bore you, please show mercy to your uncle.”
Wu Lijuan’s tears streamed down her cheeks. Her eyes were filled with humiliation.
However, these words only prompted ruthless mockery and caustic remarks.
“What on earth is this old woman talking about? Both of those children are dead! Why is she bringing that up now?”
Kicking someone while they’re down is indeed the coldest pain that humanity can inflict.
Wu Lijuan held back her tears, but gave no signs of standing up anytime soon.
Unable to bear the sight, I reached out and helped her up.
“Auntie, stop pleading with him!”
I really wanted to tell her the truth.
The person who wanted to put Song Shixiong on the deathbed might be Gu Yuanzhou himself.
However, these words seemed to choke within my throat.
I knew that Wu Lijuan would not be able to accept this truth. In her heart, she believed that Gu Yuanzhou might still care for the ties they used to have, and lend a helping hand to her and the Song family.
If she knew the truth, she would probably lose the last sliver of hope that she clings onto.
“Auntie, let’s go!”
I wanted to take Wu Lijuan away from there.
But she clung desperately to the last straw, unwilling to let go.
“I won’t leave, Yuanzhou, you have to promise me! Can you help think of a way? I really have no idea what to do anymore!”
Pitifully pleading, while Gu Yuanzhou only responded with an emotionless face.
After a long while, he turned his gaze to me, then said to Wu Lijuan,
“I will talk to her alone.”
Wu Lijuan jumped up, interpreting his remarks as an acceptance,
“Yuanzhou, we are so grateful for you! Ayun didn’t judge you wrong, you really are a good person.”
I definitely couldn’t bear to see the look of disappointment in Wu Lijuan’s eyes.
Nor did I want to burst Gu Yuanzhou’s bubble there.
So, I turned around and followed Gu Yuanzhou into the office.
He casually closed the office door. Without rushing to talk to me, he walked leisurely to the leather sofa, and gracefully took a seat.
Clad in an all-black suit, Gu Yuanzhou emanated an aura of dominance.
His black hair, slicked back, and the deep contours of his face, carried a rebellious air that was not of the past.
He leaned back slightly, crossing his legs, sitting before me like an emperor.
When he looked at me, it was with contempt.
This sense of superiority, this overbearing spirit, even carrying a bit of a sinister undertone, were all things I had never seen from him before.
“So, are you willing to compromise with me now?”
Gu Yuanzhou played with the high-end lighter in his hand, his dark eyes slightly squinted as he looked at me.
I snorted coldly,
“Gu Yuanzhou! Let me ask you, when did you start scheming against the Huaxin Company?”
Gu Yuanzhou smirked, his laugh was both malicious and unrestrained.
His arrogance…
Reminded me of my Uncle Song Shixiong when he was young. Back then, he was A City’s richest man, the first wealthy merchant who began with overseas trade.
Of course, many people behind his back called him the Hegemon of A City. Whenever he attended any function, he was always imposing just like this, with the same kind of pride and dominance.
I felt slightly dazed.
By now, Gu Yuanzhou had already got up. He approached me and said,
“You are not in a position to negotiate with me. If you want to save your uncle, you must admit you are Song Yun.”
“Gu Yuanzhou, you didn’t answer my question. In the beginning, it was Song Shixiong who helped you rise from obscurity. He gave you a path to heaven, he even married his beloved niece to you. But look at you! What have you done? You not only fail to appreciate kindness but also kick him when he’s down, you even bite the hand that feeds you. You are the snake in the tale of the farmer.”
Finally, I couldn’t control my anger any longer, and pointed at him accusingly.
After listening, his face turned cold but his eyes maintained a calm demeanour. He merely lit a cigarette and took a deep puff.
He then looked at me, a hint of danger in his eyes.
Perhaps my words had hit a nerve.
He reached out, grabbed my face, and looked deep into my eyes.
“Are you Song Yun or Song Xiaoyun? I don’t care who you are, I can tell you with certainty. Your actions and thoughts are all childish, what you’re doing is futile. No matter how you join forces with Ding Yinuo, you cannot harm me in the slightest! Believe it or not, not only can I topple Tianjiao, but I can also bring down the Huaxin Group.”
His words were laced with threats.
The man before me now was a stranger in my eyes.
In shock, I stared at him, feeling his grip tighten on my chin to the point where I thought it was going to explode.
I pushed him away with all my might.
“If I admit that I’m Song Yun, will you stop going after Huaxin?”
Gu Yuanzhou took the last puff of his cigarette and extinguished it in the ashtray. He looked at me with a slight smirk on his lips.
“What I want to accomplish, I will achieve at all costs. Whether you admit it or not, it will not change the bigger picture. However, since you are my wife, I can spare Song Shixiong’s life out of consideration for you.”
His words left me in utter shock…
“So, is Song Shixiong in your hands?”
He looked at me with his hands in his pockets, not giving any response.
“Gu Yuanzhou, you are absolutely heartless! Why are you doing this to the Song family? What did they ever do wrong?”
As for my outrage, Gu Yuanzhou didn’t respond.
He didn’t even bothered to explain anymore.
Only after finishing his cigarette and glancing at the time on his phone did he serenely say to me,
“My patience with you is limited. Don’t assume that I will unconditionally indulge you. I’m giving you half a day to think. If you don’t want to compromise with me, then be ready to collect Song Shixiong’s body.”
Having said that, he walked out leaving me behind…
