Chapter 461: Siblings
....Translator: _Min_ |
Upon learning of Gu Dai’s injury, everyone had dropped what they were doing to rush over. After a moment of hesitation, they agreed to the arrangement.
Song Ling, somewhat reluctant, proposed, “I can bring my work here to deal with.”
Meng Zhi pulled him away, insisting, “Your work must be demanding, and you won’t be able to focus on taking care of Daidai. Better not to disturb her.”
Watching Gu Dai on the bed, Su Ci said to Su Ting, “Su Ting, take good care of Daidai. I have some matters to attend to.”
At the doorway of the ward, Su Ting halted Su Ci, his voice cold, “Why did you and Song Ling come to the hospital together? Or rather, how did you happen to be at the scene?”
Su Ci replied, “I have my own sources.”
Su Ting nodded, stepping forward to grasp Su Ci’s hand, pleading in a low voice, “Brother, do you know the ‘Mister’ mentioned by the man in black? Who is he, and what are you hiding from me?”
Pulling his hand away, Su Ci said, “Su Ting, I can’t tell you everything for now. Just know that I won’t harm Gu Dai. I’ve returned to protect her. That’s all you need to know.”
With those words, he strode away.
Su Ting watched Su Ci’s retreating figure, feeling a sense of helplessness for the first time.
He regretted not learning hacking skills, which might have enabled him to uncover what Su Ci was hiding and to protect Sis.
Su Ci left the hospital, driving towards a familiar location.
He kicked the door open upon arrival, completely devoid of his usual gentleness. Facing the two guards blocking the door, he demanded coldly, “Move aside.”
The bodyguards, heads bowed, apologized, “Sorry, young master, you can’t go in.”
Enraged, Su Ci gritted his teeth, “I’ll say it one more time, let me in, or don’t blame me for being rude!”
Their heads dropped lower, “Young master, without Mister’s command, we can’t let you in.”
Su Ci knocked them down with a few punches and strode inside, his eyes fixed on the man with his back to him. Barely containing his anger, he asked, “Why must you harm Gu Dai? The conflicts of the previous generation shouldn’t involve her. She’s innocent and wasn’t even born when those events occurred.”
The middle-aged man let out a cold laugh and turned around.
After a long stare, he said, “You’re my son, yet you don’t call me father and instead side with outsiders to accuse me. How admirable.”
Su Ci, gritting his teeth, called him “Father,” “Please, don’t harm Gu Dai anymore, will you?”
The man, fiddling with his prayer beads, finally looked up, “No.”
Su Ci, desperate, asked, “Why?”
The man scoffed, “Although Gu Dai wasn’t born back then, her father made me suffer so much in the past. Now, it’s time for his daughter to taste that bitterness!”
He paused, then added with a smirk, “Remember, you’re my son, and you should be helping me. Of course, I know why you’re helping Gu Dai, but it seems she doesn’t like you anymore. Protecting her won’t change anything.”
Su Ci, eyes red and fists clenched, declared, “I don’t care about the outcome. I just want to make it clear that your actions are wrong!”
The man narrowed his eyes, rotating the prayer beads, and said indifferently, “What does it matter if it’s wrong? As long as I’m happy, that’s enough. And caring about the outcome is futile; after all, you and Gu Dai are siblings, you’re not meant to be together.”
In agony, Su Ci ruffled his hair, taking a deep breath, “I know, no need to remind me.”
Turning to leave, he paused after a few steps, warning coldly, “If you target Daidai again, don’t blame me for being ruthless.”
The man laughed heartily at Su Ci’s departing figure, scoffing, “I’m your father. Dare to try something against me!”
Su Ci paused, his fists under his sleeves clenched tighter, blood trickling from his fingertips.
He couldn’t understand why things had turned out this way, why this so-called father suddenly appeared in his life after he had grown up.
Why was he willing to save him, yet not listen to his thoughts?
Thinking of Gu Dai, a faint smile appeared on Su Ci’s lips as he murmured, “Daidai, even if we can’t be together, even if you no longer love me, it’s okay. I will still protect you and prevent anyone from harming you..”
