Chapter 77: A Child Encountering a Sick Person

Ji Meng fell silent for a moment, his expression subtly changing. “Baby, I was wrong. I should have trusted my first impression.”

What peerless sweetheart? He was a little devil.

He reminded Gu Ziyu, “Wear gloves when you’re about to kill someone. Baby, don’t leave any fingerprints.”

Gu Ziyu slowly put on his white gloves. Gu Yaozu was lying on the bed with a breathing tube. Gu Ziyu approached and removed the tube. Gu Yaozu was still in a dazed state. Gu Ziyu instructed, “Take him down.”

Ji Meng effortlessly flipped Gu Yaozu onto the ground with one hand. Gu Yaozu screamed and wailed, “Gu Ziyu, what are you doing? Doctor, nurse, someone, cough cough cough…”

Gu Ziyu knelt beside him, placing his index finger on his lips. “Shh, be quiet.”

Gu Yaozu was terrified, looking at the child before him with horror in the dim light. “What do you want? Do you know who I am?”

In the next moment, Gu Ziyu’s elbow struck his chest. Gu Yaozu’s recently healed broken ribs were broken once again. Ji Meng winced at the sound.

Gu Yaozu screamed, “Ahhh… Gu Ziyu, I won’t let you off. I won’t let you off…”

Gu Ziyu slowly drew out a dagger and pressed it against his neck with a cold expression. He tilted his head and smiled sweetly, appearing as polite as a little prince. “Be quiet.”

The cold blade pressed against his neck, causing Gu Yaozu to tremble violently as he endured the pain. Gu Ziyu remained gentle like an angel.

Gu Ziyu’s elbow struck his chest once more. Gu Yaozu was in so much pain that he broke out in a cold sweat. He writhed on the ground but didn’t dare make a sound. Gu Ziyu’s dagger remained pressed against his neck.

Ji Meng was speechless.

How twisted!

He was mistaken. While his aura resembled Third Master’s, his methods were completely different. If Third Master wanted to deal with someone, he would simply take their life. He didn’t know how to torture people. Who taught this little demon?

Insane and sick.

Gu Yaozu’s breathing became rapid. Observing this, Ji Meng assisted him with the breathing tube. When his breathing improved, he let go.

“I was wrong. Spare me, spare me…” Gu Yaozu crawled forward pitifully. “Someone, help, help…”

Gu Ziyu let out a faint sigh. He seemed conflicted, even regretful. There was a cruel glint in his eyes.

He stepped on Gu Yaozu’s head, pressing him firmly against the cold ground. Gu Yaozu couldn’t utter a single word. Gu Ziyu spoke, “I like obedient people.” “Spare me… I won’t do it again.”

Ji Meng chuckled and said, “Baby, don’t actually kill him.”

“I can end your life at any moment.” The cold dagger gently tapped Gu Yaozu’s cheek. Gu Ziyu stated, “Gu Yaozu, do you understand?”

Gu Yaozu nodded frantically.

Gu Ziyu was very satisfied and released him. Rubbing his wrist, he asked politely, “Gu Yaozu, why did your ribs break again?”

“I… I…” Gu Yaozu’s teeth chattered. He had never encountered such a terrifying child before. The ground beneath him was wet from his own urine. Ji Meng took a step back, feeling disgusted. “I fell by myself. I was truly careless.”

Gu Ziyu squatted down and gazed gently at him with his smiling peach blossom eyes. “Be more careful when getting out of bed. If you fall again, you might lose your life.”

Gu Yaozu cowered in fear. He never imagined that he would feel such fear from a child.

“You’re insane…”

Gu Ziyu was a little deranged. He was too frightening.

“You’re insane.”

Gu Ziyu chuckled, put away the dagger, and coldly left the ward. Ji Meng followed him outside. Gu Ziyu restored the surveillance camera in the corridor. Doctors and nurses rushed to Gu Yaozu’s ward, alarmed by the commotion. Gu Ziyu smiled politely at the doctor. From his appearance, it was impossible to imagine the crazed and sickening scene that had unfolded in his ward.

“Baby, you scared me,” Ji Meng said.

Gu Ziyu glanced at him. “Then you really can’t handle a scare.”

Ji Meng laughed. “Brother is easily frightened.”

Gu Ziyu stood at the hospital entrance. When he saw Chen Liangdong’s car, he calmly said, “You can go back first. I still have something to do.”

“Are you discarding the food? Don’t you care about it?”

“Tomorrow,” Gu Ziyu replied. “I’ll treat you to dinner.”

“Alright, don’t break your promise.”

“Good!” Gu Ziyu reverted to his peerless sweetheart appearance. “Goodbye, brother.”

Ji Meng had goosebumps all over his body. He had seen Gu Ziyu’s true self, so he wouldn’t be deceived again. Ji Meng drove away, and Gu Ziyu approached Chen Liangdong.

Chen Liangdong had just finished work and was dressed casually. He invited Gu Ziyu to have supper together.

The two of them went to a roadside stall to eat skewers. Gu Ziyu was a bit of a clean freak. During this period, he had been training with Chen Fei, occasionally rolling in the mud, which had slightly diminished his obsession with cleanliness.

“Is it delicious?” Chen Liangdong chuckled and said, “This is the best barbecue stall near the Provincial Department of State Security. It has been open for more than ten years, and their grilled beef tongue is the most authentic.”

Gu Ziyu had a small appetite and ate five or six pieces of charcoal-grilled beef tongue. “Let’s get started.”

Chen Liangdong sipped his beer. “Start what?”

“Being reasonable,” Gu Ziyu declared, putting on a serious expression. “I’ll admit my mistake first. Chen Fei refused to break Gu Yaozu’s ribs, so I took matters into my own hands. I was wrong. I’ll reflect on myself. You can proceed now.”

Chen Liangdong was speechless.

Gu Ziyu felt that he had an unlucky day. He was angered by Lu Zhiyuan in the morning, irritated by Chen Fei’s honesty during training in the afternoon, and even got involved in teaching someone a lesson.

After a day of swimming against the current, he had become numb.

“You also know that hurting others is wrong?” Chen Liangdong couldn’t help but laugh. “Then why do we still need to do it?”

“Whoever bullies my sister… Brother, I want their life!” Gu Ziyu didn’t hide his hostility.

Chen Liangdong pondered for a moment and asked Gu Ziyu with a smile, “Is Gu Ci more important to you than anything else?”

“Yes,” Gu Ziyu replied. “In my heart, she’s more important than anything else.”

Chen Liangdong continued smiling and asked, “Ziyu, if one day you obtain a state secret and revealing it would set the country’s technology back by 50 years, but on the other hand, it would save Gu Ci’s life, what would you choose?”

Chen Fei was frightened by the question. For Gu Ziyu, it was a life-or-death dilemma.

Choosing Gu Ci was a matter of the heart, but it would mean giving up on his aspirations as a national security soldier. Sacrificing Gu Ci would be pandering to Chen Liangdong and living a lie.

“Why should I choose?” Gu Ziyu replied confidently and arrogantly. “I can protect both.”

Chen Liangdong wagged his finger. “In life, there are ups and downs. Ziyu, it’s rare to have both sides in this world.”

Gu Ziyu fell silent. Chen Liangdong poured him a cup of milk and spoke affectionately, “The greater the power, the heavier the responsibility, and the greater the losses. Unless you’re someone who transcends the worldly matters, disregarding morals and laws. But… We’re not in a hurry. We have a lifetime to discuss this slowly.”

“Aren’t you going to scold me?” Gu Ziyu asked..
