Gu Jingze asked, “So what if I shut up? Even if I do, don’t you know more clearly than my mouth can say?”
Just then, Han Chengen suddenly raised the gun in his hand.
Over on this side, the people around Gu Jingze immediately gathered around him, forming a barrier one by one in front of Gu Jingze.
Gu Jingze looked past them at Han Chengen.
Han Chengen’s eyes were bloodshot and each and every one of the people beside him was prepared to rush forth as well.
Han Chengen said, “You’re the one asking for death. Wouldn’t it be better if you return to C Nation to live your life while I stay in M Nation and keep watch over my territory and we never contact each other again?”
Gu Jingze said, “I definitely wouldn’t have found out about these things if you didn’t hire people to deal with Lin Che. So all I can say is that you’re the one who asked for this.”
“Ha. If so, then we have nothing more to discuss. Gu Jingze, don’t fault me for this. When it comes to anything that may endanger Zichen, I definitely won’t be soft-hearted, so…”
As he said this, he was about to give a command.
A sound suddenly traveled from behind.
“Chengen? Is that you?”
Fang Zichen came out.
Han Chengen froze. In the next instant, he had already frantically put his gun behind his back.
Fang Zichen held on to Lin Che for support as they walked out together.
When the people around them saw this, they quickly moved aside to clear the path for both of them.
Only confusion was written all over Fang Zichen’s face. She looked at the situation outside and seemed to be wondering what exactly had happened.
Gu Jingze said, “It’s nothing. Don’t worry, everyone. President Han is just here to pick his wife up.”
He had even taken out his gun earlier. How could he merely be picking her up?
Of course, they did not believe him.
Fang Zichen looked at the people outside doubtfully before looking at Gu Jingze. Finally, she asked Han Chengen, “Chengen, is something up?”
“No…” Han Chengen smiled, looked at Fang Zichen and walked toward her. Behind him, his gun had already been taken away in secret. Han Chengen said, “I was doing something nearby and came to pick you up since it was convenient.”
“Oh, I see.” Although Fang Zichen was confused about why there were so many people here to pick her up, she nevertheless tugged at Han Chengen and said, “Look. This is Lin Che. I mentioned her the last time. It’s such a coincidence that we met here. They came to do charity work too.”
Han Chengen gave a reluctant smile. “Really? What a coincidence.”
He looked up at Lin Che beside her.
Fang Zichen gazed at Lin Che. “I feel like I really hit it off with you, Lin Che. How much longer are you going to stay in M Nation?”
Lin Che looked at Gu Jingze before saying to her, “A while more. We came on vacation to take a break.”
“That’s great. Come over to my house if you have time.”
Lin Che asked in surprise, “Really? I’m so grateful. I will definitely go.”
“This is my number. Take it.” She continued, “You can give me a call if you need me.”
“Hn. Thank you, Madam Han,” Lin Che said.
Throughout this, Han Chengen was watching from the side. The expression on his face was turning stiffer by the second.
However, Gu Jingze pulled Lin Che towards him just then and said, “That’s enough. Madam isn’t feeling too well. Let her go back earlier and rest. We’ll contact her again thereafter.”
Lin Che nodded and looked at Fang Zichen. “In that case, rest up first. I will take my leave.”
“Sure.” She looked at Lin Che as the two of them bid each other farewell. She continued looking at Lin Che even after the latter had walked far away.
Since she was around, Han Chengen could only secretly use his eyes to signal to his men to keep their eyes on Gu Jingze and Lin Che. Thereafter, he pulled Fang Zichen and said, “That’s enough. You’re tired too. Let’s go back first.”
Fang Zichen looked at him. She was no longer smiling and looked slightly solemn. It made Han Chengen feel guilty.
“Chengen, tell me. Do you have some enmity with this Gu Jingze?”
Even though she stayed cooped up at home all the time, she was no fool. Of course, she could tell that the situation just now had been extremely critical.
Han Chengen averted his gaze. “No.”
“That’s impossible. Tell me exactly what happened.”
Han Chengen closed his eyes, turned around and held her hands. “You need only know that everything I do is in your favor. If I don’t tell you things, it’s also for your sake. If I hide things from you, it’s for your sake too. Alright. We’ll talk about this again later. We’ll talk about it when we go home, alright?”
Fang Zichen looked at his face very solemnly.
Of course, she knew that he was good to her.
She nodded. “Okay. I just hope that nothing happens to you. We’re getting on in years and we don’t have to work so hard or earn a lot of money either. I hope that we can live peacefully, okay?”
Han Chengen’s heart ached.
If he had not fervently sought revenge, today’s incident may not have even happened.
He had also been thinking that he was getting old. After waiting for so many years, he finally had the power to take revenge, but now…

Gu Jingze left with hurried steps while taking Lin Che with him.
Earlier, he had only dared to be so unbridled because Fang Zichen was inside.
Now that he was out, he was only worried that Han Chengen’s men would come after them and pose a threat to Lin Che’s safety.
Thus, Gu Jingze took Lin Che away from this place as quickly as possible.
They did not know how far they had gone. Sitting in the car, Lin Che turned to look at the crowd outside the children’s home disperse slowly. The people outside probably thought that the children’s home was organizing some activities and were merely looking on curiously. But they did not seem to have caused any trouble.
Lin Che asked, “Why does Han Chengen keep his wife on such a tight leash? We just went over to take a look but he brought so many people with him. I was frightened out of my wits.”
Gu Jingze said, “The more he behaves like this, the more telling it is that something is wrong.”
Lin Che asked, “Then, what should we do?”
Gu Jingze said, “Seems like I won’t be able to take a break for the next few days.” He leaned towards the other side and thought about something before shaking his head faintly.

After returning to the Han residence, Han Chengen helped Fang Zichen settle down before instructing the people outside.
“Get someone to watch Gu Jingze closely. Also, tell everyone…” Han Chengen slowly clenched his fist. “Tell everyone that we must make Gu Jingze suffer a little while he’s here. Only then will he not look down on M Nation.”
Han Chengen looked straight ahead with a venomous gaze while thinking, You made me do this.
All the businessmen had initially been very nervous about Gu Jingze coming to M Nation. Over the past few days, they had been going around asking what they should do. Gu Jingze had never had any interest in M Nation. Was he coming here so often now because he had some unspeakable secret?
Everyone was on tenterhooks and was so anxious that they could not go on.
As a result, everyone actually harbored hatred towards Gu Jingze.
Since Gu Jingze had insisted on delivering himself up, then…
Han Chengen thought that he could contact every one and together, they could trap Gu Jingze.
Even though he did not really harbor any grudge against Gu Jingze, it was Gu Jingze who was putting him under such tight pressure and leaving him with no space to breathe.
Han Chengen instructed someone to contact the numerous businessmen in M Nation and also despatched someone to the Yun residence to sound out their opinion.
The Yun family had received news about Gu Jingze’s arrival a long time ago but Gu Jingze had visited the Yun family not even once despite having been here for so many days. It made the Yun family extremely angry.
