Qin Chong listened to Gu Tianhao’s question and pointed in the direction of Huo Sicheng’s parents’ graveyard.

Gu Tianhao followed the direction Qin Chong pointed and asked in confusion,

“What do you mean?”

Qin Chong explained, “That way lies the graves of Huo Sicheng’s parents.”

Still puzzled, Gu Tianhao asked, “And then?”

Qin Chong, with a furrowed brow, said, “Don’t you get it?”

Gu Tianhao replied, “What should I understand? How does pointing in a direction tell me anything?”

“Do you think Huo Sicheng saved me for no reason?” Qin Chong said, resignedly. “It seemed like he was saving me, but in reality, he purposely made me visit his parents on their death anniversary. He’s torturing me.”

“Torturing…” Gu Tianhao repeated the word, shocked.

“Yes, torturing me,” Qin Chong said, gritting his teeth in anger, recalling Huo Sicheng’s actions. “He never explicitly said he knew the truth, but every word he spoke was a reminder that he knew the truth about the car accident. He saved me to torture me, to make me live a life filled with guilt.”

Gu Tianhao, with a deeply furrowed brow, asked, “Do you feel guilty?”

“No,” Qin Chong answered bluntly, with a hint of murderous intent in his eyes. “I only regret that I didn’t kill Huo Sicheng when he was younger. Then, none of this would have happened. But what scares me more is the new drug Huo

Sicheng gave me. I’m afraid it’s poisoned. I’m afraid that without his medicine,

I’ll die. I’m even more afraid that after my death, Huo Sicheng will destroy the

Qin family. The Qin family is everything to me; I can’t let him destroy it.”

“So, you’ve lost to Huo Sicheng,” Gu Tianhao told Qin Chong. “For Huo Sicheng, whether you feel guilty or not isn’t the issue. The biggest problem is your fear.” Qin Chong stiffened, clearly struck by Gu Tianhao’s words.

“As long as you want to live, you’ll always be under Huo Sicheng’s control,” Gu

Tianhao said, implying something deeper. “But if you choose death, Huo Sicheng will destroy the Qin family, so you can’t afford to die. As long as you’re alive, your life and even the Qin family’s existence depend on Huo Sicheng. His strategy is more ruthless than killing you.”

Qin Chong began to tremble uncontrollably. “Huo Sicheng is terrifying…”

Gu Tianhao sighed, “I have to say, I’m lucky to have my daughter, Gu Qingcheng, as a shield. Otherwise, I would have ended up in a miserable state like vou, living in constant fear.”

Qin Chong looked at Gu Tianhao, who appeared relaxed and smug, and suddenly felt jealous of Gu Tianhao having Gu Qingcheng’s protection while he had none.

“For the first time in my life, I feel fortunate that Gu Qingcheng is alive,” Gu Tianhao joyfully told Qin Chong. “Seems there are benefits to not having a son.” Qin Chong was taken aback by Gu Tianhao’s words.

He didn’t have a daughter like Gu Qingcheng to protect him, only a useless son, Qin Jun, who was more trouble than help.

Most importantly, Qin Jun had not only offended Gu Qingcheng but also Huo Sicheng. Qin Chong always had to clean up his son’s messes.

Now, with his life in Huo Sicheng’s hands, if Qin Jun angered Gu Qingcheng or Huo Sicheng again, he wouldn’t even be able to clean up the mess.

Gu Tianhao, thinking happily of how Gu Qingcheng saved his life, wanted to tell Qin Chong about Gu Qingcheng agreeing to give him her inheritance. He said to Qin Chong, “Ah Chong, Qingcheng she…”

“Enough,” Qin Chong, overwhelmed with emotions, interrupted Gu Tianhao. “I’ve said all I need to say. I’m going back now; I need to recover.”

Stunned, Gu Tianhao watched as Qin Chong left in a huff.

He realized Qin Chong was angry that he had Gu Qingcheng’s protection.

But he didn’t care; as long as he could survive, that was all that mattered.

He immediately got into his car and told the driver to head to the mall quickly.

Chu He immediately clung to Gu Tianhao’s arm, inquisitive, “Husband, what were you and Ah Chong talking about?”

Gu Tianhao lit a cigarette and exhaled a ring of smoke, “Nothing much.” Chu He pressed, “Nothing much? Why did I see Ah Chong leave in a huff?”

“Mind your own business,” Gu Tianhao said, pushing Chu He away irritably. “Remember, as my woman, don’t pry into my affairs, especially my personal matters.”

Chu He tried to appease him, “Don’t be angry, I won’t ask anymore, dear…” “Get lost,” Gu Tianhao pushed her away harshly. “Don’t bother me.”

Chu He, pushed by Gu Tianhao, hit the car window hard and let out a painful cry.

But Gu Tianhao didn’t care about her pain at all. He just turned to look out the window, as if he wouldn’t care even if she died.

Seeing Gu Tianhao’s heartlessness, a murderous intent flashed in her eyes.

In the parking garage of the Shanxia Mall, Gu Qingcheng sat beside Huo Sicheng, both silent.

Huo Sicheng gazed at Gu Qingcheng with gentle eyes and softly said, “Huo Xuan asked me this morning to make sure you come home tonight. He said he has a surprise for you.”

Gu Qingcheng’s mood had been bad when she left the Huo residence, but knowing that Huo Sicheng had been sending flowers to her mother, Mu Xia, for years, warmed her heart and improved her mood.

“I’ll return to the villa tonight,” she responded softly to Huo Sicheng. “I have a private matter to handle with Gu Tianhao. You can go ahead with your work.”

“I’m not comfortable with that,” Huo Sicheng said, holding Gu Qingcheng’s delicate hand. “I’ll stay here until you’re done.”

Feeling the warmth of his hand, Gu Qingcheng’s heart softened.

“Alright, wait for me. I might return home late tonight; I’m not sure of the exact time. If you get home before me, please let Xuan know, so he doesn’t worry.”

“Okay,” Huo Sicheng agreed.

“Sicheng, Qingcheng,” at that moment, Gu Tianhao approached the car and knocked on the window. “I’m here.”

Seeing Gu Tianhao, Gu Qingcheng said to Huo Sicheng, “Let’s get out of the car.”

Gu Qingcheng and Huo Sicheng got out of the car together. She glanced at Gu

Tianhao and then at Chu He, who was peeking curiously from the driver’s seat.

She said to Gu Tianhao with a slight smile, “Let’s go. I know where we can settle our matter.”

“Okay,” Gu Tianhao agreed and couldn’t help but glance at Huo Sicheng following them. He asked Gu Qingcheng, “Qingcheng, Sicheng…”

Gu Qingcheng, without looking back, told Gu Tianhao, “He’s just here for a stroll. He won’t disturb us.”

Understanding, Gu Tianhao turned to Huo Sicheng and explained, “Sicheng, don’t misunderstand. Qingcheng and I just have a small matter to settle.”

Huo Sicheng’s eyes were only for Gu Qingcheng. He said calmly, “I understand.

I’m just here for a stroll.”

Gu Tianhao gave an awkward smile and said nothing more.

Gu Qingcheng and Gu Tianhao entered a print shop. She paid the owner to leave and began typing on a computer.

Soon, a contract was printed. She checked it and handed it to Gu Tianhao. “Make sure you’re certain. We both need to sign.”

Gu Tianhao read the contract and his face turned pale.. “Qingcheng, what do you mean by this?”
