Chapter 179: Chapter 179: Deadly Threat (1)
Feeling a sense of danger approaching, Gu Qiangwei, who was on the sofa, stood up with her phone and asked, “Who are you… What are you going to do?”
Hearing the disturbing voice over the phone, Qin Sijue frowned slightly, “What happened?”
The deep voice pulled Gu Qiangwei back to reality, and she spoke into the phone, “There are many armed people at home—”
Before she could finish her sentence, the phone was suddenly thrown out, making a ‘bang’ sound and shattering on the floor!
Unable to hear any sound inside, his heart was vaguely uneasy, anxiety covering his cold, stern face.
Looking at the phone screen, the call had been forcefully ended!
Staring at the glowing screen, Qin Sijue’s hands by his sides clenched tighter and tighter, his eyes bloodthirsty, and the veins on his forehead bulged!
Seeing her grandson acting unusually, the elderly Mrs. Qin couldn’t help but walk over, “What has happened—”
Approaching, she saw her grandson’s crimson, bloodthirsty eyes and Mrs. Qin’s voice abruptly stopped.
She had never seen her grandson so inflamed with rage, as if a violent storm was about to erupt!
Before Mrs. Qin could finish her sentence, she saw Qin Sijue turn around and swiftly rush downstairs!
His heart was tumultuous and unsettled.
Mrs. Qin stood frozen in place, faintly sensing that something had happened.
After a slight daze, she also ran downstairs, the servants hurriedly stepping forward to assist her.
Perhaps because of Qin Sijue’s resolute attitude, the Nangong family felt somewhat awkward for a moment, sitting silently on the couch, each with a heavy expression on their faces.
After all, the Nangongs held a prominent position and background in Jingcheng. Countless men sought after their daughters, and yet Qin Sijue had directly rejected them.
“Old He, be assured, this marriage will definitely—” Before Qin Guozhong could finish his sentence, he caught sight of the furious Qin Sijue coming down the stairs.
Once downstairs, Qin Sijue did not pay any attention to Qin Guozhong or the members of the Nangong family, but like a gust of wind, he walked straight toward the main door!
“Where are you going!?” The men he sent should be acting right now; if he returned to Jueyuan, the whole affair would definitely fall through.
Watching his tall silhouette from behind, Qin Guozhong shouted angrily!
Qin Sijue stopped, his handsome face burning with rage, and suddenly turned to meet Qin Guozhong’s eyes.
His voice, as cold as if frosted over, “I am very much like you. The more you want to destroy something, the more I want to protect her completely, to guard her all my life.”
That casually spoken sentence shockingly seared into Qin Guozhong’s heart.
Still frozen in place, Qin Sijue had already turned and stepped forward again toward the hallway.
“If you take one more step forward, I will immediately make Gu Qiangwei disappear!”
That sentence again stopped Qin Sijue in his tracks.
His heart, as if struck by lightning, suddenly froze on the spot.
Both grandfather and grandson, indeed very much alike, naturally possessed a tenacious stubbornness ingrained in their bones; neither willing to bow down, always relentless in pursuing what they wanted to do, regardless of the cost!
Turning again, Qin Sijue’s eyes were bloodthirsty, each word forced through his teeth, “Really at any cost?”
Qin Guozhong was taken aback, unsure of what his words implied.
But the definitive break in his eyes immediately shook the decision Qin Guozhong was about to make.
He did not want to lose this grandson over a woman.
