Chapter 237 - 237: Taking Care of Four People
Not only was Jiang Yue taken aback, but Zhao Xuan, who had witnessed the entire exchange, was equally surprised.
He had thought Song Ling would forgive Jiang Yue, but instead, he rejected her, proving that his boss hadn’t lost his intellect to love.
After hanging up, Song Ling became lost in thought, reflecting on how he had been misled by Jiang Yue to wrong Gu Dai.
During her three years of amnesia, Gu Dai had been utterly alone, without family or friends.
Gu Dai had already suffered so much, and he, as her husband, not only lacked concern but often spoke harshly to her. She had to be so sad in those times
He pondered whether he had ever been a good husband.
This realization brought a deep, gnawing pain in his heart. Gu Dai’s current attitude towards him was, he conceded, well deserved.
The phone ringing suddenly broke the silence in the car.
Song Ling’s detached gaze fell on Zhao Xuan, startling him into hastily ending the call and switching to texting.
Moments later, Zhao Xuan’s expression changed drastically, urgently informing, “Bad news, President Song! The people tracking Miss Gu Dai say she’s in trouble. Someone is causing her problems!”
Song Ling’s expression tensed, his face turning grim, and a chill emanated from him. He ordered immediately, “Go to Gu Dai’s location!”
Gu Dai, ignoring the thug’s lewd remarks, spoke coldly, “You can’t beat me, and I don’t want to waste time here. 1’11 offer you double the money to leave me alone.”
Her offer instantly caused hesitation among the thugs.
“Wow, double the money! How much is that? Boss, we’re going to be rich!” One exclaimed.
Yellow Hair, referred to as the leader, was angered by his subordinate’s greed. He glared viciously at the person who spoke.
He spat, “A little favor and you change sides so easily? Plus, she’s probably deceiving you. She won’t pay a dime.”
Gu Dai calmly replied, “I can transfer the money now.”
Yellow Hair paused, taken aback. Regaining his composure, he spoke with anger, “What do you mean by that? You think having some money makes you great?”
Gu Dai remained silent, offering no response.
Yellow Hair continued, his voice laced with resentment, “1 don’t want your money, 1 just want to beat you up!”
His smirk, expecting to see fear in Gu Dai’s eyes, faded when he saw her unwavering expression, a direct challenge to him.
Enraged, Yellow Hair charged at Gu Dai, arm raised to strike.
Gu Dai watched him approach, coldly remarking, “I gave you a chance. Since you don’t want it, don’t blame me.”
She kicked Yellow Hair, who just charged forward, in the stomach as he neared, sending him tumbling to the ground. He looked up to see Gu Dai gazing down disdainfully.
Fuming, Yellow Hair attempted to stand, only to collapse again under the searing pain in his leg.
His subordinates rushed to his aid, voicing their concerns and threats.
“Boss, are you alright?”
“Boss, we’ll take you to the hospital right now!”
“Damn it, you dare hurt our boss, we won’t let you off for this.”
With a dark expression, Yellow Hair commanded sternly, “What are you waiting for? Get her now!”
The subordinates were apprehensive, vividly remembering how this woman had effortlessly turned their boss into a pitiable state with a single kick. Despite their hesitation, they had no choice but to follow orders.
Gu Dai watched the three men charging towards her, her gaze sharp and unyielding.
She kicked the first attacker into the air, dodged the assault, and quickly seized his arm. Tightening her grip, she landed a forceful punch on his face, then hurled his body onto the last remaining assailant.
Yellow Hair, witnessing the three bodies lying beside him, his expression gradually morphed into panic. In a flustered tone, he pleaded, “Don’t hit me, 1 give up!”
Gu Dai nodded, lowering her gaze as she rubbed her fists, and asked, “Who sent you?”
Yellow Hair began, “At that time…”
Seeing that Gu Dai was not paying attention to him, a vicious glint appeared in Yellow Hair’s eyes. He swiftly stood up, pulled out a knife from his waist, and lunged at Gu Dai.
Just as Yellow Hair was half a meter away from Gu Dai, a man rushed out, snatched the knife from his hand, and in a swift reversal, stabbed Yellow Hair with it..
