Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

“Another solution?” Chu He couldn’t believe her husband, Gu Tianhao, would actually ask Gu Qingcheng that. “What are you talking about?”

Heavens.

What kind of man had she married?

It wasn’t until today that she realized she didn’t understand Gu Tianhao at all.

She knew he was very concerned about his own interests, but she didn’t expect him to leave their daughter, Gu Mei, in Gu Qingcheng’s hands, completely disregarding her feelings, just to secure the inheritance and the energy business.

Given Gu Qingcheng’s intense hatred for Gu Mei, even if she didn’t kill her, she would undoubtedly subject her to further torment.

Ignoring Chu He’s presence, Gu Tianhao asked Gu Qingcheng in a low voice,

“Tell me, as long as Xiao Mei doesn’t die, I can agree to any of your requests.”

Gu Qingcheng remained silent, knowing that Gu Tianhao wasn’t acting out of kindness. He must have a hidden agenda.

“I want the Mas family’s energy business and the inheritance you possess. Also, the video of Gu Mei and Qin Jun and the evidence of Gu Mei’s rape,” Gu Tianhao continued.

Chu He’s anger surged, and her entire body trembled. She angrily exclaimed, “Gu Tianhao!”

With a swift movement, Gu Tianhao raised his hand and slapped Chu He. His eyes bore into her like sharp daggers as he warned, “Shut up!”

Chu He’s right cheek swelled, bearing the red marks of Gu Tianhao’s slap. Her eyes welled up with pain and disappointment, and tears flowed uncontrollably.

Seeing this, Gu Qingcheng suddenly felt a pang of pity for her mother, Mu Xia, for marrying Gu Tianhao, who cared only about his personal gain.

Yet, she wasn’t surprised by Gu Tianhao’s heartlessness.

He was her biological father, and he had tried to kill her.

Gu Mei was also his daughter, and if he could kill her, he could do the same to Gu Mei.

Gu Tianhao, who had treated women as mere possessions during his years as Qin Chong’s brother, had never truly valued anyone.

Chu He could die, Gu Mei could die, and he could remarry and have another child to inherit the Gu family’s wealth. Gu Tianhao had never truly loved anyone; he loved only himself.

The naive Chu He had become a mistress and had caused her mother’s death. The hatred over her mother’s demise was irreparable. Gu Qingcheng wanted to witness the day Chu He and Gu Tianhao turned against each other, becoming enemies. She even wished her late mother, Mu Xia, could witness the sordid spectacle of their discord.

However, Mu Xia had already passed away, leaving only her daughter to avenge her and witness their ugliness.

“Gu Mei’s life is worthless. It’s not worth handing over the energy and inheritance to you. And the video can’t be used either,” Gu Tianhao declared.

Gu Tianhao’s lack of surprise at Gu Qingcheng’s refusal indicated he had expected her reluctance.

“Inheritance,” he stated, “You don’t need the energy or the video. Just exchange the inheritance with me.”

“No,” Gu Qingcheng firmly rejected him. “I’ve told you, Gu Mei’s miserable life is not worth trading for the inheritance.”

Gu Tianhao had anticipated Gu Qingcheng’s refusal to hand over the inheritance and energy, and he grew furious.

“Are you toying with me again?” he bellowed. Gu Qingcheng remained calm. “I can’t help it if that’s how you see it.” “You…” Gu Tianhao seethed. “You scoundrel!”

“How am I a scoundrel?” Gu Qingcheng smiled. “You want the energy and inheritance, you want the video to protect the Gu family’s reputation and your own, but you’re only willing to trade for the worthless Gu Mei. Even in a business deal, it has to be fair and reasonable.’

“I can tell that you won’t reconcile with Gu Mei no matter what. You’ll continue to torment her,” she continued. “What do you want for me to hand over the energy and inheritance?”

Gu Tianhao’s expression darkened. “You’re just being shameless and refusing to hand over the energy and inheritance.”

“So what if I am?” Gu Qingcheng smiled even brighter, unfazed by his anger.

Gu Tianhao was so infuriated that his face turned ashen. He stood up and attempted to leave.

“You can leave, but you have to pay for the meal,” Gu Qingcheng calmly said.

“I’m a customer; customers don’t have to pay.”

Gu Tianhao nearly lost his balance in anger. He placed a hand over his chest and snapped, “Xiao He, pay up.’

He left, trembling with fury.

Gu Qingcheng picked up her bag and glanced at Chu He, who was no longer the image of a wealthy lady but a disheveled figure crying inconsolably. She couldn’t help but chuckle.

“The dignified Mrs. Gu was beaten and couldn’t even protect her daughter. Your husband treated you as an item to be traded. Chu He, you truly are pitiful as

Mrs. Gil.’

Chu He glared at Gu Qingcheng in anger. “It’s all your fault! None of this would have happened without you!”

“Is that so?” Gu Qingcheng smiled sweetly at Chu He. “Did you ever consider the consequences when you killed my mother?”

Chu He froze, her face contorted as she forgot to cry.

“My mother’s death won’t be in vain,” Gu Qingcheng declared, her eyes fixed on Chu He with unwavering determination. “You should know that in Gu Tianhao’s heart, neither you nor Gu Mei mean anything. Today, he offered me Gu Mei as an item, and tomorrow, he could do the same with you, just to satisfy his greed for energy and inheritance.”

Chu He was struck by Gu Qingcheng’s words, realizing the dangerous position she was in.

If Gu Qingcheng agreed to hand over the inheritance and energy, Gu Tianhao would undoubtedly offer her as well.

Seeing the shift in Chu He’s expression, Gu Qingcheng left without uttering another word, leaving her to grapple with her doubts.

Once the seeds of doubt were sown, trust would slowly erode, and she wanted Chu He and Gu Tianhao to become embroiled in endless conflict.

She sat in her car and dialed Lu Chi’s number.

“Lu Chi, find out where Gu Mei was the night my son went missing.”

After giving her instructions, she ended the call and drove back to Wanmei Villa.

It was a rare occurrence for Gu Qingcheng to return home early. She had even prepared eight dishes for Huo Sicheng, intending to share the meal with him.

Huo Sicheng was pleasantly surprised when he saw the dishes laid out on the table.

Gu Qingcheng removed her apron and approached him, gently hugging him and placing a loving kiss on his lips.

She smiled sweetly and contentedly. “Hubby, welcome home.”

The words “welcome home” and the passionate kiss stirred Huo Sicheng’s emotions deeply. He had longed for this kind of welcome when returning home, and only Gu Qingcheng had the power to give it to him.

The person he had longed for was Gu Qingcheng. He desired to eat the food she prepared, even if it was just a simple bowl of rice or a glass of water. As long as it was Gu Qingcheng, he was content to cook for her and watch her eat.

Above all, he longed for a home, a home where he loved someone. Gu Qingcheng had made it a reality. She had given him a complete family.

She was the source of all the happiness in his life.

After so many years, he finally had Gu Qingcheng, and she had finally welcomed him home.

Home. This was their home, the sanctuary of their souls.

Overwhelmed with excitement and gratitude, he couldn’t help but pull her into his arms and kiss her deeply.

Gu Qingcheng was momentarily surprised but responded to his kiss with equal fervor.

After their passionate kiss, Gu Qingcheng called their son, Huo Xuan, to join them for dinner.

At the dining table, Huo Sicheng gazed at his wife, Gu Qingcheng, and his son, Huo Xuan, who were filled with happiness. He smiled, his heart brimming with contentment.

Following dinner, Huo Xuan wisely excused himself, leaving Gu Qingcheng and Huo Sicheng alone in the dining room.

“Hubby…” Gu Qingcheng approached Huo Sicheng, perching on his lap.. She wrapped her arms around his neck and asked softly, “Is there something about our son’s kidnapping that you’re keeping from me?”
