Your Beloved Sweetheart Is Online

Chapter 1003 - 1006: Promise Me, Don’t Cry 10

Gu Shaocheng remained silent, waiting patiently.

His gaze was indifferent, full of self-importance, as he scanned over everyone present, eventually resting on the husband of Gu Silian, chilling slightly, "So you are Silian’s husband, what’s your name?"

A flicker of panic crossed Cao Ying’s eyes: "Cao Ying."

"What is your profession?"

Gu Silian was very angry, but remembering that she was trying to secure a position for her husband within the Gu Family, she slightly restrained her volatile temper and said to Gu Shaocheng, "My husband..."

However, just as she began to speak, Gu Shaocheng’s eyes sharply darkened, forcefully interrupting her, "Who gave you the right to answer for him?"

The overwhelming aura, the untolerating imperial demeanor, made everyone too intimidated to even breathe a sigh. Although Gu Silian was used to not being slighted as the lady of the house, encountering Gu Shaocheng, and thinking of the legends about him, a flicker of fear rose in her heart, and she bit her lip, silently cursing him countless times inwardly, but obediently closed her mouth.

Indeed, she was truly scared. In the main hall, more than a dozen armed guards stood on either side, hands behind their backs, exuding an intimidating presence. What were they doing breaking in here in the middle of the night?

At this moment, two more people burst in through the door.

Two personal guards dragged a man who seemed to have been shot in the leg, with blood still flowing out. "Sir, when we found him, he was eavesdropping. He’s quite skilled, managing to escape from us and only got caught at the back door!" As they spoke, they aimed at the man’s right leg and fired another shot, bang!

The silenced gun made only a faint noise, yet it frightened Gu Silian so much that she instinctively shrank into her husband Cao Ying’s embrace.

Then, an eavesdropping device terminal!

Was casually thrown to the floor by a personal guard. "This is what we found in his room!"

"What is going on here?" Not expecting that at this moment, an elderly man casually walked in from outside. Upon seeing her grandfather, Gu Silian seemed to immediately find her backbone and hurriedly left her husband to rush towards Gu Ting: "Grandpa, you’re finally here. Some people are ridiculously arrogant, breaking in with people in the middle of the night, pointing a gun at your granddaughter, I was about to be killed!"

Not a single trace of relaxation showed on Gu Shaocheng’s face. He stood up and approached: "Second Grandpa, Shaocheng did not wish to disturb you, but it seems we’ve accidentally awakened you!"

Gu Ting swept over the tense atmosphere in the main hall, took hold of his cane, and gave a firm thump: "Shaocheng, what kind of play are you putting on here?"

"Second Grandpa, let me escort you back to your room," Gu Shaocheng said, his words brooking no dissent. With a gesture, Gu Silian, who wanted to seek support from Gu Ting, was pulled away. Gu Shaocheng slightly inclined his body, "Second Grandpa, please."

"You!" Gu Ting was incredulous. The Sect Leader of the Gu Family, who was usually so respectful to him, was displaying such a strong attitude tonight, completely disregarding his face.

"There are some unclean things in this room, and as the head of the Gu Family, I must clean them up. I hope Second Grandpa won’t make it difficult for Shaocheng! For minor issues, out of respect for you, I can turn a blind eye. But a family without rules won’t be able to stand strong. The current situation has reached my bottom line. If you really must intervene, then do not blame Shaocheng for not understanding the ways of respecting the elderly and caring for the young! ......Please! Let me escort you back to your room!"
