Free Web NovelChapter 2606: Chapter 2606: Already Dead (3)
Some people are like this: once they make a mistake, it’s always someone else’s fault. They never think they are wrong. Gu Sheng has this mentality.
But now, that bitch Zou Qiuyue is already done for, yet the Gu Family cannot fall, and he does not want to fall either, so he can only come to Gu Qingheng. This is his son, after all. As long as he admits his mistake and his son acknowledges him, the Gu Family will not fall, and neither will he. He might even rise higher; above the position of the Minister of Rites is a seat in the cabinet.
So, he took action.
But after several chance encounters, the other side did not even spare him a glance. He had no choice but to visit in person. After all, he was his father, and he had already lowered himself. It wouldn’t be too excessive, given that filial respect is of utmost importance.
However, he was truly mistaken, for the person refused to see him.
Today he decided to change strategies; women tend to be more soft-hearted.
Indeed, this time he was not refused. In fact... watching the woman walk out, the corners of Gu Sheng’s mouth curved slightly upward.
Yang Ruxin stood atop the steps looking down at Gu Sheng. To be honest, this man was very handsome. Even in middle age, he still retained his charm and did not have the potbelly typical of other men.
Though Gu Qingheng mostly took after his mother, he still inherited quite a few features from him, such as the shape of his face and his lips.
It’s just a pity that this beautiful shell contains nothing but filth.
Originally, when Gu Sheng saw Yang Ruxin come out personally, he was delighted, feeling he should have started with women. However, when he saw her standing at the top of the steps looking at him, his heart sank.
"Lord Chief of Staff," Yang Ruxin said with a slight smile, not even offering basic courtesy, "What instructions do you have for us?"
"I..." Gu Sheng frowned, glancing at Gu Qingheng, only to find his gaze was unusually calm, as if he were looking at an ordinary person, causing the words he wanted to say to get stuck in his throat.
If there was hatred in the other person’s eyes, it could demonstrate that he cared. But when the other person does not even harbor hatred when looking at him, then...
"Lord Chief of Staff, if there’s nothing else, please leave," Yang Ruxin maintained a faint smile, "We are busy." Then she turned and took Gu Qingheng’s hand.
"Yeye," Gu Sheng suddenly spoke out.
Unfortunately, those two didn’t pause at all.
"Gu Qingheng, I am your father!" Gu Sheng finally couldn’t help but shout out, "I am your biological father, you..."
"My father?" Gu Qingheng finally stopped and turned around, looking at him with a strange expression, "My father died a long time ago."
"Yeye, I know there’s hatred in your heart, but I was misled by Zou Qiuyue. I..." Gu Sheng, disregarding everything else, took two steps forward, trying to enter through the door.
But Gu Di reached out, stopping him at the stairs.
"Gu Ye also died long ago, in that massacre by his own family against him." Gu Qingheng’s expression remained unchanged, "So, Lord Chief of Staff, please don’t shout here; it lacks dignity."
"Yeye, no matter what, you are still a part of the Gu bloodline, you..."
Just as Gu Sheng was about to reason with him, a figure suddenly ran out from inside, carrying a basin of some unknown contents that emitted a strange odor from a distance.
And when the person reached the door, without saying a word, they threw it out directly.
