Free Web NovelChapter 1213: Chapter 1213: It Will End Soon
Gu Beicheng once again raised his eyes to look at him, gaze like a torch.
"You can’t decide? But she can? So, she’s still alive, isn’t she?"
The Seventh Young Master’s gaze, apart from anger, had a hint of desperate hope.
Chi He really couldn’t figure out what was going on for a moment.
The middle-aged man remained silent, and Gu Beicheng tapped his finger on the table, calming himself completely.
He pulled a cigar from inside his coat, leaned back on the sofa, and lit it.
"Name your terms."
When Gu Beicheng raised his eyes again, he truly returned to the demeanor Chi He knew.
"It will be over soon." The middle-aged man continued to sip his tea.
His words were somewhat chilling.
When Chi He thought the Seventh Young Master might erupt in anger again, he didn’t see the expected outburst.
"Does she know I’m here?" Gu Beicheng’s indifferent voice sounded.
"Maybe." The middle-aged man slightly curled his lips.
"I want to see her." Gu Beicheng took a deep draw on his cigar.
"She wouldn’t be willing." The middle-aged man said softly.
"You should know, since I’m here, I can’t leave easily."
Gu Beicheng’s aura remained cold, yet stable and composed, different from before. freeweɓnovel.cøm
"Once she has decided, no one can change it." The middle-aged man’s indifferent tone carried a hint of unknown emotion.
"Not necessarily." Gu Beicheng’s mouth curved into a bitter smile.
He glanced at Chi He, who swiftly approached, pressing a short knife that had appeared in his hand against the man’s throat.
"It’s useless, she’s long disregarded life and death." The middle-aged man shook his head with a smile.
"She may not care about her own life, but doesn’t she care about the man who’s been by her side for twenty years?" Gu Beicheng took another hard draw on the cigar.
The swirling smoke accentuated the poignant smile on his face, making one feel heartache.
Who would have made the Seventh Young Master become like this?
Is it the Lady? Who else could it be if not her?
With Nian Nian and the Old Madam not being here, the only person who could affect the Seventh Young Master’s nerves, as Chi He could imagine, was Gu Beicheng’s biological mother.
Chi He was startled by his own thoughts. Could it be that the Lady is really not dead, and the one who bribed the Black Shadow Organization to kill Miss Nian Nian is her?
"Lady Chou, come out. If anything happens to my wife, your lover won’t have the chance to see the moon tonight either."
Gu Beicheng’s voice, deep, icy, indifferent, as if carrying some power, spread throughout the entire villa.
Chi He frowned deeply, truly surprised.
Qiu Yan, he thought it was a man, but unexpectedly, it was a woman.
Could she really be the Lady?
Suddenly, faint footsteps reached everyone present, and all eyes simultaneously turned to one spot.
A noble-looking woman walked down elegantly from upstairs.
Her long black hair draped naturally, and her bangs made her look a bit younger.
Her crescent-shaped eyebrows were not sparse at all, and under the long lashes, a pair of eyes like gems, clear and pure.
A petite face with a high nose bridge and delicate thin lips.
The woman’s skin was snow-white and flawless, her figure perfect, showing no signs of having borne children.
