“How did you know?” Bai Ying asked in surprise.
Gu Juexi had obviously known about it—Master Bai had buried just enough explosives under the Bai family’s fortress to blow the whole place up when he built the fortress.
“Master Bai might have killed many, but he has always been a frank and straightforward person. He knew that his brothers might not follow the rules that he set, so he prepared a plan B which was to blow everyone up. I am sure you knew about this, Mistress?”
Bai Ying clenched her fists.
Yes, that was why she went against the Bai Family. The patriarchs had completely forgotten about the rules that her father had set when he was alive.
But when did Gu Juexi find out about all of this?
“I don’t know who led me here but it looks like he was familiar with this place and the operation of the whole Bai family,” Gu Juexi said and looked at Qian Yikun, “no offense but I don’t think you are capable of that yet.”
Qian Yikun was speechless at Gu Juexi’s bluntness.
“Ye Shu,” said Bai Ying softly as if answering Gu Juexi’s question.
Other than Ye Shu, she couldn’t think of anyone else who was familiar with the Bai family. But if Ye Shu was still alive, why didn’t he come back?
“Gu…”
“Take the mistress with you,” said Gu Juexi when he heard footsteps approaching.
“I found it.”
It was Nalan Chunbo’s voice. He came out from a hidden room and announced that he had found the ignitor of the explosives under the Bai Family’s fortress.
Turns out that Nalan Chunbo had left to look for the ignitor the moment Gu Juexi was caught.
Gunshots were being fired non-stop outside Bai Ying’s room. There were some who tried to come into the room through the window using a ladder, but Qian Yikun had successfully stopped them.
“Let Nalan Chunbo take the mistress with him. I will stay here with you.”
“Don’t even think about dying together with me,” said Gu Juexi emotionlessly. “Don’t dream about my wife looking at you when she visits my grave. Get lost.”
Nalan Chunbo and Qian Yikun didn’t reply. They would admit that they couldn’t compare to him when it came to being mean.
The door of Bai Ying’s room exploded. “Go now,” said Gu Juexi quickly as he went into the hidden room that Nalan Chunbo came out from earlier.
Nalan Chunbo took Bai Ying to the underpass with Qian Yikun. “I think it might be ideal that Ye Yuwei visits my grave too next time,” said Qian Yikun when they reached the underpass. He then shut the door of the underpass behind him and blocked the entrance with a wardrobe.
Qian Yikun sneaked into the hidden room where Gu Juexi was quickly before the people from the Bai Family entered Bai Ying’s room. To buy Nalan Chunbo and Bai Ying more time, he left the door of the hidden room open to mislead the people from the Bai family.
Gu Juexi heard gunshots behind him and chuckled when he looked back and saw Qian Yikun.
At half-past six, thirteen places around the world were blown up together at the same time. The news about the explosions attracted the world’s attention, and all other news including the acquisition of Gu International were neglected.
Yu Jiangqing monitored the thirteen sites on his computer and decided to blow up the Bai Family’s fortress’ gate too.
Yu Jiangqing made up his mind and headed out to get it done.
Meanwhile, Ye Yuwei had changed into a female military uniform. She couldn’t shower because of her wounds and merely wiped herself before the army doctor dressed her wounds. She was holding a mug in her hand, her heart feeling empty.
She knew that the Bai family’s legacy had ended the moment she heard the explosion.
The Bai family was history now.
