Gu Mengyang’s words directly scared Qiu Mingzi to the point of stupidity.
Dragging his two dislocated arms, he stood there dumbfounded for several seconds.
While Qiu Mingzi was dumbstruck, Gu Mengyang took action, lightly flipping his wrist as Vital Energy wrapped around his palm.
Seeing Gu Mengyang stimulate his Vital Energy, Qiu Mingzi finally regained his senses, afraid that Gu Mengyang would really kill him on the spot, he looked at Gu Mengyang with eyes full of panic, and yelled, "Don’t!"
"Don’t kill me! I was lying to you, I didn’t cast evil on you, I didn’t curse you!"
Fearing that yelling any slower would cost him his life, Qiu Mingzi yelled very loudly and quickly.
Gu Mengyang heard this, raised his eyebrow, and loosened the force in his hand, "Really didn’t cast anything?"
"Nothing, I wanted to, but there seems to be an amulet on you, and I can’t cast anything at all," Qiu Mingzi wrinkled his old face, trying to make himself look as pitiful and miserable as possible.
Hearing Qiu Mingzi mention the amulet, Gu Mengyang raised his eyebrows and subconsciously lifted his hand to touch the jade pendant hanging around his neck.
Not feeling any cracks, Gu Mengyang then let his hand drop.
After lowering his hand, Gu Mengyang didn’t pay any more attention to Qiu Mingzi but slightly lowered his eyes and leaned against the wall by the doorway, waiting for Gu Zhiqi.
Seeing that he had no intention of acting further, Qiu Mingzi breathed a long sigh of relief. Watching him looking distracted, Qiu Mingzi’s eyeballs gave a little turn, a gleam flickered at the bottom of his eyes, he slightly tilted his head to look in the direction of the elevator, then turned to look at the distracted Gu Mengyang, and subtly moved a step to the side.
Although Gu Mengyang had his eyes lowered, he was keeping watch on every single move of Qiu Mingzi.
"Dare to move another step, and I’ll chop off your feet first," Gu Mengyang said unhurriedly.
Qiu Mingzi’s body stiffened upon hearing this, and he froze in place. After a few seconds, he slowly turned his head to look at Gu Mengyang, his face full of fawning flattery, "Mister, now that you are alright, can you let me leave?"
"I promise, I’ll go far away and never appear before you again."
Gu Mengyang slightly curled his lips, a faint smile on his face, and continued to avert his gaze, completely ignoring him.
Seeing this, the smile on Qiu Mingzi’s face became a little stiff.
Seeing that Gu Mengyang wasn’t looking at him, Qiu Mingzi dropped the smile from the corner of his mouth and defiantly moved a step to the side.
No sooner had he moved a step, than a swooshing sound followed by a document, carried by the Vital Energy wind, embedded itself in Qiu Mingzi’s calf.
Qiu Mingzi felt an intense pain coming from his foot and collapsed onto the ground, wanting to cover the wound with his hands, but since they were dislocated, he couldn’t move them at all.
Gu Mengyang straightened up from leaning against the wall and then walked toward Qiu Mingzi step by step.
Qiu Mingzi was howling in pain while backpedaling on his uninjured foot, his face filled with terror as he looked at Gu Mengyang.
Gu Mengyang’s lips bore a shallow smile, one that looked utterly cruel no matter how one viewed it.
"I told you not to move, yet you didn’t listen," Gu Mengyang said, speaking languidly as he crouched down and grasped the document embedded in Qiu Mingzi’s leg.
As Qiu Mingzi’s screams rang out, the document stuck in his foot was removed.
Qiu Mingzi shivered from the pain, blood still seeping out from his calf, and he collapsed on the ground, his face deathly pale and looking like he was about to faint.
Gu Mengyang looked at the bloodstained document, his brow slightly furrowed, not bothering to open it anymore, and discarded the document disdainfully to the side.
Just then, the office door opened, and Gu Zhiqi walked out from inside.
