Chapter 69: Chapter 69: It’s actually a… Male lion!?
However, Luo Chen completely ignored Gu Zhendong’s bluster and simply led him through the building and into a garden.
In the darkness of the night, this garden was unlike any other, not pleasing to the eye with a feast of beauty; instead, it was surrounded by thorns, looking somewhat eerie and raising the hair on one’s neck.
What in the world was this place?
Because it was night, a stunned Gu Zhendong hadn’t yet made out the nature of the place before suddenly, a roar sounded!
What was that sound!?
Gu Zhendong’s whole body jolted as he turned towards the sound, only to see in the pitch-black night a massive silhouette slowly approaching.
Gu Zhendong couldn’t make out the true form of this massive creature, only discerning those eyes glowing with a fluorescent light through the darkness.
Then, the enormous figure drew closer and closer.
Could it be a… lion!?
How could such a thing be kept in a villa!?
Seeing the lion baring its fangs as it opened its mouth, Gu Zhendong’s complexion drastically changed, his instinct to retreat in fear kicking in!
But before he could move back, Luo Chen pushed him forward!
Glancing at Gu Zhendong’s cowardly and frightened demeanor, Luo Chen couldn’t help but sneer, feeling truly delighted at heart!
If it weren’t for Mr. Qin arriving in time, the Young Madam would have already fallen into the tiger’s den by now, and this biological father hadn’t thought of these things at all, simply sending his own daughter to the tiger’s mouth for the sake of the company’s interests!
Gu Zhendong’s eyes widened, wanting to look back at Luo Chen, but before he could turn his face, he was pushed in the direction of the lion!
“No, no, no! I won’t go over there, that’s a lion!”
“Are you scared already?” Luo Chen said with a light smile, “You’ll have to stay here for three days and three nights.”
His terrified, pathetic look was oh so gratifying!
Truly, you reap what you sow!
Selling out to anyone else would have been fine, but he had to betray the woman of Jingcheng’s all-powerful Qin Sijue!
“Who, who are you guys! Why are you doing this to me!? I, Gu, didn’t offend you to my knowledge!” Gu Zhendong backed away, legs trembling, not understanding when he had crossed a big shot.
Hearing this, Luo Chen couldn’t help but speak up.
“Not offended? Old man Gu, you don’t have a great memory.”
“What?” Gu Zhendong didn’t understand.
“Remember, last time Mr. Qin personally said that the Young Madam had nothing to do with the Gu Family, but in a blink of an eye, you actually sold our Young Madam?”
“Young, Young Madam?” Gu Zhendong frowned.
“That’s right, Mr. Qin’s woman, and you dared to sell her?”
“You-you mean, the man earlier was really Qin Sijue!?”
“Could there be a fake one?”
Gu Zhendong’s expression became extremely ugly!
That man really was Qin Sijue, yet Qiangwei lied to him saying he was a hired imposter!?
“This Qiangwei… why did she lie to me that he was hired!”
Luo Chen frowned, “Hired?”
Gu Zhendong looked up, starting to shamelessly beg for mercy, “Sir, I truly didn’t know Qiangwei was Mr. Qin’s woman, I really had no idea! It was Qiangwei, she deceived me saying Mr. Qin was an imposter she had paid for, if I knew, I wouldn’t dare take her to dine with Young Master Lan even if I had a hundred guts!”
If he had known earlier, why would he have ever done such a thing!
