Mr. Xu automatically peeked into the room to only see Gu Yu storming out from the room, his expression hostile. Mr. Xu immediately panicked and couldn’t help taking a few steps backward.
However, Gu Yu grabbed him by his collar and lifted him slightly off the floor. He could feel the tip of his toes left the ground and collar of his shirt tightened around his neck, strangling him. He suffocated.
“You… How are you fit to be Xu Weilai’s parents?” Gu Yu spat out the words one by one, bitterly.
Xu Weilai’s parents were scared silly. They never thought that he could be violent to them. Mr. Xu struggled and begged, “Yu… I, I can’t breathe. Let… Let me go…”
Mrs. Xu stood by dumbly for a moment before she could react. She, too, started begging for mercy when she saw her husband’s face reddened. “Yu, let’s have a proper talk about it. Let my husband go first… Please…”
Gu Yu was unmoved. His grip on Mr. Xu’s collar tightened as the veins on the back of his hand bulged. The pressure of him lifting Mr. Xu caused the wound he got earlier from punching the bookshelf to bleed profusely.
His eyes red and gloomy, shining with killing intent, like Lucifer, the King of Hell.
Mr. Xu turned pale in fear. Mrs. Xu no longer cared if she would offend Gu Yu for stopping him. She went forward and tried to pull Gu Yu’s hand away from Mr. Xu. “Yu, He’s Weilai’s father. Do you seriously wanted his life? Let him go!”
Father.
The mention of the word father seemed to strike Gu Yu back to his senses. His pupils moved, he loosened his grip, but the blood lust in his eyes did not lessen.
Mr. Xu fell to the ground in a sorry state. His hand automatically held on to his neck that was almost broken in two, and coughed violently. Mrs. Xu immediately went to check on him “Hubby, are you okay?”
Gu Yu lowered his eyes and cocked his head slightly. His gaze fell on Mr. Xu.
Mr. Xu huddled himself up and moved away from Gu Yu. He almost died.
“Never contact Xu Weilai again.”
Xu Weilai’s parents were both shaken by his request. It served more like a warning for them. Mrs. Xu was first to react. “Yu, what do you mean? Weilai is our daughter. What do you mean to never contact her again? Are you saying that we should disown her? This is too much…”
The corner of Gu Yu’s lips twitched. His icy gaze moved from Mr. Xu to Mrs. Xu. He lowered his body into a crouch in front of Mrs. Xu and drew his handsome face nearer to her with his devilish smile plastered on his face.
Mrs. Xu’s face, too, paled when the scene of her husband nearly losing his life appeared in her mind. She couldn’t help but moved backward to distant herself away from the devil.
“Does this look like a discussion to you?”
His tone was light and relaxed, but was enough to cause Mrs. Xu anxiety attack. She was drenched in sweat as her limbs trembled with fear. She looked down and stammered, “We… We understand. We won’t… contact Weilai every again. We won’t…”
–
Gu Yu went back into Xu Weilai’s room to retrieve the notebook. He strode out of the Xu Residence and sat in his car.
He placed Xu Weilai’s notebook on the passenger seat and picked up his phone. He dialled Xu Weilai’s number but was answered by a machine operator, “The number you have dialled is not reachable.”
Gu Yu tapped into his contact list and searched for Xiao Chun’s number.
It rang for a long time before the call was picked up. Xiao Chun’s voice answered weakly, “Yu, what’s up?”
Gu Yu went straight to the point. “Where is Xu Weilai? I remember everything. I want to see her. I have something to tell her.”
