Seeing Zhong Qianqian’s murderous look, Gu Mingzhe maintained the same gentle smile on his face. “Qianqian, why are you crying? Look, I’m not the one who started this, am I? You’re the one who has embarrassed my mother and keeps asking for a divorce. If you never bring this up, I definitely won’t have put this on the table either. However, since you’ve already brought it up, you can’t blame me for being cruel. To be able to tell you the truth, I’m quite a trustworthy man already.
“To be honest, you’re not losing out on much either. Think about it. After we sign the agreement, you’ll return to your family and became the legitimate precious young lady. Money won’t be a problem for you anymore. You’ll be able to get whatever man you like, no? Don’t worry, even though I’m your husband, as long as you pay more attention when you hang out with those men and avoid getting photographed so that I won’t be embarrassed, I’ll definitely turn a blind eye.”
“But you must kill Zhong Nuannuan! If you don’t kill her, I won’t sign this!”
To persuade Zhong Qianqian to put down her signature, Gu Mingzhe nodded. “Okay, okay, okay. I’ll help you kill Zhong Nuannuan. However, you also know that Zhong Nuannuan isn’t that easy to kill. She has Chi Yang by her side. Chi Yang is a talent that the country is spending resources to nurture. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have been able to become a captain at such a young age. Therefore, we should come up with a long-term plan when it comes to killing Zhong Nuannuan.
“You already know that our Gu family is in a precarious situation. I can give you a definite answer—in less than a month, without the help of the forces behind you, the Gu family’s businesses will definitely collapse. Meanwhile, this matter of killing Zhong Nuannuan will take at least a month or two before I can carry it out.”
“You’re shirking responsibility!” Zhong Qianqian complained angrily.
“I’m not trying to shirk the responsibility, but it is what it is. Think about it, Xue Miqi had chosen quite a secretive method in the past, but Chi Yang managed to arrest both of you the next day effortlessly with Zhong Nuannuan ending up completely unharmed. It was obvious that Chi Yang sent someone professional to protect her.
“Among the wealthy families, if we want to deal with a person in secret, we’ll definitely avoid going domestic. That’s because anyone with some basic hacking skills can easily expose us. Therefore, we’ll have to hire professional killers or mercenaries from overseas. Then, we need to make a move when Chi Yang isn’t around.
“When I helped you with the school withdrawal procedures, it was nearly exam season that should be followed by winter vacation. Zhong Nuannuan will probably stay in the military base’s compound all day. You’re not asking the killer I hired to rush into the military base to kill someone, are you? That’s not realistic. Thus, I can only help you get this done in two months.
“However, if you insist on not signing this contract because of this, I can only divorce you and save the Gu family. Qianqian, you have to consider this carefully. You are the one benefiting from this. The Gu family is just icing on the cake. Of course, you can choose to look for your family on your own. You can even attack the Gu family after you find your family. However, since you’re adamant about divorcing me, I’ll be helping you for old times’ sake. I have no reason to help you in the first place. You have to think it through. Whether you want to divorce me or sign this agreement, it’s all up to you.”
Zhong Qianqian nodded almost immediately.
“I’ll sign.”
Zhong Qianqian could not keep up with Gu Mingzhe’s thoughts at all. At the start of the negotiation, she was already led by the nose by Gu Mingzhe.
“However, we have to sign a new contract. If you don’t kill Zhong Nuannuan within two months, you can forget about getting anything if we divorce.”
