Chapter 361: Sign the Divorce Agreement
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Gu Tianhao’s hatred for Gu Qingcheng reached its peak, and upon hearing her words, his expression stiffened slightly.
Despite his hatred for Gu Qingcheng, he couldn’t help but recall the night he fell from the building after hearing her words.
Indeed, the reason Gu Qingcheng could take over Gu Corporation was because of his fall from the building.
Fall?
NO!
He didn’t just fall or drop down; he was pushed.
That night, he clearly felt a strong push on his back.
Who could it be?
Who in his family would want to kill him?
Gu Qingcheng, observing the change in Gu Tianhao’s expression, knew the timing was right.
“I thought about the tone of your voice when you called me that night; it didn’t sound like you had been drinking. So, it seems you accidentally fell down the stairs,” she said to Gu Tianhao, “How could you be so careless? I even thought someone who you offended recently wanted to silence you permanently.”
Before Gu Tianhao could respond, she continued on her own. “But I was probably overthinking it. The Gu family’s villa is heavily guarded. Even if there were enemies, nobody would dare to kill you in your own house. It must have been an accident.”
Gu Tianhao’s pupils dilated sharply.
He hadn’t offended anyone recently, except for the divorce proceedings with
Chu He.
Could Chu He have pushed him down the stairs to avoid divorce?
Thinking of Chu He’s tearful and helpless demeanor, she didn’t seem like someone who would dare to push him down the stairs to kill him.
After all, he had been physically abusive to Chu He, and if she really wanted to kill him, she wouldn’t have waited until now.
Chu He could have killed him while they were sleeping together, but she didn’t. So, she didn’t have the guts to push him.
Thinking about it all, his head ached unbearably, his entire body spasming in pain.
Gu Qingcheng watched Gu Tianhao’s body convulse but did not call for a doctor. She just calmly watched him suffer in agony.
Pain, excruciating pain. Gu Tianhao should feel lucky that he was only in agonizing pain and not dead.
Gu Tianhao trembled with pain, needing a doctor to save him.
However, Gu Qingcheng, right before his eyes, showed no intention of calling a doctor. She just coldly watched him, almost as if she wanted to see him slowly die in his agony.
He couldn’t die. He had to live to reclaim his inheritance, uncover the truth about who pushed him, and most importantly, to take back his Gu Corporation from Huo Sicheng.
Now, the only person who could save him was Gu Qingcheng, and she was intentionally not calling a doctor.
No matter how reluctant he was to beg Gu Qingcheng, he must do so to survive.
After all, as long as he didn’t die, he would slowly settle all scores.
“Qingcheng, daddy knows he was wrong,” he said with all his strength, pleading with Gu Qingcheng, “Please forgive daddy for ignoring you all these years. ”
Gu Qingcheng remained silent, staring intently at him.
Seeing Gu Qingcheng ignoring him, Gu Tianhao became desperate.
“Qingcheng, the biggest mistake daddy made was marrying Chu He right after your mother’s seventh-day death anniversary. Don’t worry, Chu He has already signed the divorce papers; she won’t be my wife anymore.
“Qingcheng, it was my fault for letting Chu He drive you out of the Gu family, leaving vou, onlv five vears old, at school without a father’s love.
“Qingcheng, Daddy was wrong to you in the past, not fulfilling his responsibilities as a father. I will treat you well from now on and make it up to you.
“Qingcheng, I am your father, your biological father. We are connected by blood. I will do everything to make it up to you…”
“Make it up to me?” Gu Qingcheng’s lips parted slightly, her voice tinged with a hint of scorn and mockery, “Daddy?”
Seeing that Gu Qingcheng was finally paying attention to him, he hurriedly said, “Yes, I will make it up to you. Everything you lost from childhood to adulthood, I will compensate, my daughter, my good daughter…”
Gu Qingcheng laughed, but her laughter was devoid of any warmth, filled only with hatred.
“Good daughter? I am not your good daughter. In fact, you have never treated me as your daughter. To you, I am nothing, not even a responsibility. I am just an excess in your life.
“I survived to this day thanks to the inheritance left by grandfather. Before I grew up, aside from ignoring me, you had no other choice. I was like the squeaky old furniture in the hall that you never wanted to fix. Every day you just passed by it, wondering why it still made noise and even wishing that the noise would disappear soon.
“So, how do you plan to make it up to me? You abandoned me, and now you want to find me back? Even calling me your good daughter? Hahaha…” Her smile became brighter, but it was cold as ever.
“Your good daughter is only Gu Mei, definitely not me, Gu Qingcheng!”
Gu Tianhao, seeing Gu Qingcheng’s radiant smile, felt a chill to his bones. She finally stopped pretending to call him daddy affectionately.
Especially when she laughed, she resembled the young Mu Xia, stunningly beautiful.
Suddenly, excruciating pain filled his body, as if thousands of insects were frenziedly gnawing at his blood.
In pain, he was going insane, the pain blurring his vision of Gu Qingcheng.
Her face began to distort, appearing like a terrifying demon from hell, ready to tear him apart and swallow him.
He didn’t care what she was saying; he only knew that calling Gu Qingcheng his good daughter was just to survive, and then, once he recovered, he would kill her with his own hands.
“Qingcheng, the doctor… the doctor…”
Gu Tianhao’s eyes were filled with terror, begging for help.
In her past life and this life, this was the first time Gu Qingcheng saw Gu Tianhao show fear.
Wasn’t he always so proud?
Didn’t he want to kill her?
Look at Gu Tianhao now, abandoned by all, with even living being a luxury.
She slowly stood up and pressed the call button.
Looking down at Gu Tianhao, who seemed on the verge of sudden death, she said with her lips slightly parted, “Don’t worry, the doctor is coming soon.”
Gu Tianhao was surprised to see Gu Qingcheng press the call button. He thought she would just coldly watch him die there.
Why did she press the call button?
Didn’t she want him to die?
The attending doctor hurried into the room. Seeing all the alarms on the monitors tracking Gu Tianhao’s vital signs, he quickly said, “Quick, prepare for resuscitation.”
“Focus on your recovery,” Gu Qingcheng said, looking straight at Gu Tianhao, “The corporation is in good hands with Sicheng. I’ll visit you another day, my dear daddy.”
She emphasized the last five words, sounding like a call to a father, but also like a chilling summons from hell, ready to send Gu Tianhao to his death.
Hearing Gu Qingcheng’s last words, Gu Tianhao, overwhelmed with anger, passed out.
Gu Qingcheng slowly walked out of the room, exhaling a long breath.
This breath contained all the resentment of her past and current life, bringing her a moment of soulful relief and comfort.
“Qingcheng…” Bai Si saw Gu Qingcheng and quickly approached her with concern, “Why did all the doctors rush in? Did something happen to dad?”
Seeing Bai Si’s excessive concern for Gu Tianhao, Chu He’s eyes showed mockery. She then approached Gu Qingcheng with a feigned timid and hypocritical demeanor.
“Qingcheng, what happened to your dad? Please tell me, I’m so worried about him. I’m afraid of losing him. Without him, I can’t live.”
Gu Qingcheng glanced at Bai Si, then at Chu He’s pretense, and asked Chu He, “Are you really afraid of losing Gu Tianhao?”
