Chapter 621: Bomb Installed
Translator: _Min_ |
Li Yuan’s anger toward Fu Jing and Fu Chuan gradually subsided. He then spoke up, “I will send you the address later. Come over to my place.”
Gu Dai responded crisply, “Okay.”
After hearing Gu Dai’s words, a sense of alertness arose within Li Yuan, and he spoke in a cold tone, “You are to come alone later. If there’s anyone else with you, I will immediately kill Fu Jing and Fu Chuan!”
Gu Dai earnestly a.s.sured, “Don’t worry, I won’t bring anyone else.”
Li Yuan nodded in satisfaction, “I thought you wouldn’t dare.”
As he finished speaking, before Fu Jing and Fu Chuan could urge Gu Dai not to come, he promptly hung up the phone and warned in a stern voice, “Just stay put and don’t try any tricks.”
He then strode out of the room and locked the door, confining them inside.
In a state of urgency, Fu Chuan asked, “Mom, what should we do now?”
Fu Jing took a deep breath, trying to calm herself. Ideas of escape kept surfacing in her mind, only to be dismissed one by one. Eventually, she said helplessly, “I don’t know what to do…”
After hanging up the phone, Gu Dai quickly exited the villa, only to be surprised to see Song Ling at the gate.
She frowned and asked, “What are you doing here?”
Song Ling did not respond directly but said, “I’m coming with you.”
After a moment’s consideration, Gu Dai nodded, “Let’s go.”
When Gu Dai and Song Ling arrived at the location Li Yuan had specified, they saw him leisurely sitting in a chair, cradling a woman in his arms, contentedly nibbling grapes she fed him and occasionally kissing her.
Gu Dai watched Li Yuan impa.s.sively and directly asked, “Where are they?”
Hearing her voice, Li Yuan’s gaze s.h.i.+fted to Gu Dai and paused briefly upon seeing Song Ling by her side, before naturally looking away and saying, “I can let them go, but you’ll have to come in exchange.”
Gu Dai frowned, “What do you mean?”
Li Yuan’s smile broadened as he casually said, “The young Miss of the Gu family is always clever. There’s no need to pretend you don’t understand in front of me. After all, I’m fully capable of killing Fu Jing and Fu Chuan right now, and if you want to save them, you’ll have to exchange your life for theirs.”
As Gu Dai felt her phone vibrate in her pocket, her expression relaxed. She looked at Li Yuan and spoke calmly, “What if I don’t?”
Li Yuan scoffed, “Then Fu Chuan and Fu Jing will have to die!”
With that, he opened a nearby cabinet, took out a small remote control, and turned the laptop around so Gu Dai could see the surveillance feed.
Li Yuan toyed with the remote and chuckled, “I’ve installed a bomb in the room where Fu Jing and Fu Chuan are. Just one press of this b.u.t.ton, and they’ll be instantly blown to bits.”
He clicked his tongue, “Their hot blood will splatter, their bodies torn apart, and all this misery you brought upon them, Gu Dai. It’s your fault for not saving them; otherwise, they wouldn’t have to die so horribly.”
Gu Dai let out a cold laugh, “If they really end up like that, it would only be because of your monstrous actions.”
Li Yuan waved his hands dismissively, “It’s because of you!”
Unwilling to argue with Li Yuan, Gu Dai glanced down at the monitor, then withdrew her gaze and said indifferently, “I don’t want to save them anymore. Go ahead and press the b.u.t.ton.”
Li Yuan was stunned; Gu Dai’s response was utterly unexpected. He had considered many possibilities, but never that Gu Dai would give up on saving them.
He asked incredulously, “What did you just say?”
Gu Dai repeated patiently, “I don’t want to save them anymore. If you want to press the b.u.t.ton, go ahead.”
Li Yuan pushed the woman away from his arms, his eyes locked on Gu Dai, “I really installed a bomb in their room. I’m not joking. If I press this b.u.t.ton, they will definitely die.”
Gu Dai nodded earnestly, “I truly don’t plan to save them. I’m not joking with you either.”
Seeing her nonchalant demeanor, Li Yuan hesitated for a moment before clenching his teeth and pressing the b.u.t.ton, declaring loudly, “Since this is what you asked for, I’ll grant your wis.h.!.+ Fu Jing and Fu Chuan, remember it was Gu Dai who wanted you dead, not me!”
