Chapter 68.2: Masochist Gangster's Bodyguard (13)



“Kill me.” AnYuan LiMei’s voice cracked into a sob while tears stream down her cheek from her closed eyes. The fingertip that raised her chin was cool, and the fragrance from the other woman lingered in her mouth and nose… She had come to terms with the fact that today is the last day of her life. Her plan had failed and she deserved to be slaughtered mercilessly, that is the way of life.

“Aren’t you surprised that the men you sent to the villa failed to kill me?”

Yes. In fact, AnYuan LiMei was confident that Xiao JingLin would definitely not bring Gu MingYue along on this trip, and so, after confirming that Gu MingYue would be alone at the villa, she had immediately sent her men there. However, they had underestimated Gu MingYue’s sources of information, which were far superior to theirs, hence causing their sweeping defeat.

“Are you telling me what to do? Must I kill you because you requested it?” Amidst Gu MingYue’s chuckle, AnYuan LiMei’s eyes widened in fear. She understood clearly that if she failed to die here, what awaited her would be terrible torture that was worst than death…

Sometimes, being dead was the most merciful gift one could beg for.

Knowing this, AnYuan LiMei instantly cast her gaze on Xiao JingLin, who was standing behind Gu MingYue. She stared at him pleadingly, hopeful that the man whom she still loves dearly would take pity on her and order her execution.

However, Xiao JingLin lowered his head silently under her gaze, which was full of despair and nostalgia, while his torso was visibly tensed.

Gu MingYue watched the interaction between the two in amusement, and upon seeing the disappointment in AnYuan LiMei’s eyes, she continued leisurely, “I’ll let you go.”

As soon as her words came out, all three people present were shocked.

She knelt down and continued in a serious tone, “Stop thinking about revenge and go back to your country. I don’t care if you choose to live a normal life as a young girl, or inherit the AnYuan Group as per your rights. But, if this happens again, everything you know will cease to exist.”

“Why are you letting me go?”

“Because, perhaps you might be able to live the life I had imagined when I was your age.” Gu MingYue motioned to Shang Ren to let go of AnYuan LiMei’s arm that was clipped to her back before pulling the stunned woman up. “Life in the underground world is merciless, and it’s an endless cycle of killing and revenge. But in the end, the true motives behind the fights are nothing more than territory and profits. The AnYuan Group was the party that broke the rules before the disaster that eliminated your family happened, and if you truly wished to hate someone, it should never have been QingFeng Group. In fact, the person who instigated your father to make such a stupid decision was probably still part of the top management of the AnYuan Group.”

“The AnYuan Group might look united on the outside, but in truth, it is actually torn apart from within… But you probably didn’t know about this, right?”

AnYuan LiMei walked out of the reservoir in a daze under Gu MingYue’s gentle voice. It was true that she really did not know anything, and until just now, all she thought about was how she had lost to Gu MingYue, only to find out that she had been a puppet that was being manipulated by men she trusted from the very beginning.

“You should know who your real enemies were if you are a smart person.” The woman’s words echoed within AnYuan LiMei’s mind over and over again, deafening her other thoughts as she walked.

Meanwhile, after letting AnYuan LiMei go, Gu MingYue pointed her gun at Shang Ren, and immediately after, the sound of several gunshots went off, followed quickly by the sound of someone falling into the water. It was so loud that the birds in the forest were startled and started flying everywhere.

And so, everything was finally over.

The woman standing by the reservoir put away her gun and walked passed the man standing nearby without giving him a glance.

“Wait for me.” Xiao JingLin quickly followed Gu MingYue’s swift footsteps, before grabbing her arm and pulling her into his arms, “You’re starting to go soft.”

Gu MingYue stayed silent.

“Though you shot Shang Ren in the leg and kicked him into the reservoir, this degree of injury is not fatal at all, in fact, you are actually helping him escape from the organization.” Xiao JingLin affirmed her knowledge of how the organization would handle Shang Ren’s case, and that he would definitely be in danger after what happened today. Not only did Gu MingYue’s quick actions prove her loyalty and trustworthiness to the organisation, but she also created the illusion that Shang Ren had already been killed by her.

Gu MingYue glanced at the man with bright and penetrating eyes as he spoke, however, Xiao JingLin merely smiled assuringly, “I won’t pursue his faults, and neither would anyone else.”

The woman’s faint smile warmed the man’s heart, and he hugged the body within his arm tightly. After everything that happened today, the joy and relief that was currently within his heart were indescribable. It felt amazing to have survived such a catastrophic and possibly-fatal event, and if Gu MingYue was not here today, Xiao JingLin was sure that he would’ve lost his life.

Gu MingYue swooped in like a knight on a white horse, and he was like the princess who would be rescued by the charming knight.

Meanwhile, Gu MingYue, who was buried in the man’s arms, sighed almost imperceptibly at his words.

Soft-hearted?

It was merely because she understood the deepest truth, and that was to never allow her opponent to become an eternal existence that she could not compare with.

AnYuan LiMei was a significant and special existence to Xiao JingLin, as she was the first woman he allowed into his heart. And even though she had approached him intentionally and with a purpose, if she died here today, then Xiao JingLin would probably remember her forever…

Gu MingYue knew clearly what were considered obstacles, which she would never soften her heart for. However, Shang Ren’s faults were not worthy of death, at least… compared to the crimes she had done to modify the story plot.

Gu MingYue reciprocated the man’s hug and burrowed her face into the crook of his neck.

Would you still hug me tightly like this when the truths surfaced?
