Chapter 260 - Killed him (2/2)
”Because of you, my sister changed! She lost her sanity because of you! How could you reject a girl like her!? How could you choose that woman over my little sister!? Isn't my little sister enough? Is it because you think that she's unattractive?!”
”What?” Wang Lu obviously looked confused by now. ”What are you saying—”
”Gu Ren!”
Gu Zhi shouted the name of his sister out loud, getting a photo of her from her pocket as he showed it in front of Wang Lu.
”Don't tell me you forgot this face! This is my sister, Gu Ren! Because she met you—because she met you that she fell in love with you!”
Wang Lu's body froze. When his eyes landed on the photo in front of him, he immediately recognized that it was the girl he saved when he saw young boys bullying her.
He also remembered how he was being stalked by Gu Ren and when he rejected her and had pointed Feng Mei who was waiting for her, that was the last time that Gu Ren also saw Wang Lu.
Now everything made sense. With Feng Mei's disappearance and with how Gu Zhi is venting out to him, Wang Lu could deduce that he was doing this because of Gu Ren, his sister—and it was obvious how he loves her dearly.
”Gu Zhi,” Wang Lu's voice was cold. ”So it was because of this… that you tortured Feng Mei?”
”Yes!” Gu Zhi was not afraid to admit it. ”My sister… my sister wants to torture whoever gets in her way in between your love! I know that you won't ever reciprocate her feelings, but with seeing her this way? How could I let this go? I want to make people pay—make people pay for torturing my sister this way!”
The laughter evaporated from his eyes. His customary warmth gone faster than summer rain. It was pointless to try to reach him now. Wang Lu knew that even though he wanted to talk to Gu Zhi properly, it would be pointless.
As the man before him, too, was at the brink of losing his sanity.
”Gu Zhi,” Wang Lu's voice was cold, getting Gu Zhi's attention. ”You don't have to do this! But since you have resorted to this, I have no choice but to stop you!”
”Stop me?” Gu Zhi scoffed, ”Stop me!? Oh, you will never stop me until I am satisfied! You will never stop me until I would get my hands on whoever woman who would get your attention!”
”Mr. Wang Lu!” There was a warning tone in Wang Lu's secretary. ”You have to get to Ma'am Feng Mei now! He might—”
With Gu Zhi suddenly running towards Feng Mei, Wang Lu instinctively went In front of Feng Mei in an attempt to protect her.
”Do it! Now!”
Wang Lu's secretary acted quickly. With the gun that he held in his hand, he accurately shot Gu Zhi two times, making him stagger to the ground as blood started coming out of his wounds.
”Argh!”
Gu Zhi wailed in pain. He immediately fell to the ground, his blood pooling before him as his eyesight started to blur, becoming weak in an instant.
With Feng Mei witnessing this before her eyes, she went unconscious, making Wang Lu carry Feng Mei in his arms for security and protection.
”Y-you…” Gu Zhi desperately gasped for air as he looked at Wang Lu's figure carrying the woman he targeted. ”I am… not… done yet… Feng Mei… she will…”
BANG!
Another bullet went through Gu Zhi's head. Wang Lu's secretary did not even see when his boss took his gun. He didn't bat an eye as he was also a trained bodyguard as he watched his boss killed the man.
Wang Lu's secretary bent down, checking for Gu Zhi's pulse. The moment his fingers touched his neck, he could not feel his pulse beating, indicating that he was already gone.
”Mr. Wang Lu, what should we do?”
Wang Lu looked at Feng Mei who was in pain, sleeping in his arms. His eyes then turned cold as he looked at Gu Zhi's lifeless body on the floor, his words cold as he told his next orders to his secretary.
”As long as he's good as dead, it's alright. Do everything you can to make sure you cover this issue up. Nothing's more important than Feng Mei's safety and security.”
