Chapter 4 Return And Release

• After Ling Jiawen said that, her expression changed and she gnashed her teeth.
• "Back then you dumped Lu Beichuan and forced him to leave. But now that he just came back, he targeted the Gu Group. It was obvious that he is exacting his vengeance."
• Ling Jiawen leered at Gu Qiaoge and said shamelessly.
• "In another words, everything happened because of you. Therefore, you must personally go and set things right. I will send you before Lu Beichuan and you must make him gives up on pressing the Gu Group."
• She knelt before Gu Qiaoge and pinched her chin. After that, the stepmother's lips curled up.
• "He is just a man, and he must have a special infatuation with his first love. As long as you perform well, I believe you will definitely be able to do it."
• A cold shudder ran down Gu Qiaoge's spine.
• She raised her head immediately and pushed that face of wickedness away. The woman rejected her without any hesitation.
• "I... won't..."
• Regardless of the reason, she was the one that gave up on Lu Beichuan back then. And right now, she had no right to stand before Lu Beichuan again.
• And now that she was just filthy, she didn't dare to...
• *Slap!*
• As Gu Qiaoge felt a stinging pain from her cheek, her face was brought to the side and she fell heavily on the tiles.
• "Who gave you the right to reject me?"
• Ling Jiawen pulled her up by the hair and narrowed her eyes to threaten her.
• "Gu Qiaoge, let me tell you. Back then, I can make you give up on Lu Beichuan and today, I can use the same method and get you back to him."
• "Oh, by the way, I have forgotten to tell you. That your father just barely escaped death from a stroke. Now his life is hanging on the medical apparatus. Say, if your father were to know how you have been living all these years, will he..."
• "And your brother..."
• Gu Qiaoge felt that she was suffocating. As if the wicked woman had grasped every air in her mouth.
• "Stop it! I'll go! I will do whatever you say!"
• Gu Qiaoge screamed and interrupted her. Her body was trembling uncontrollably. For the millionth time, she wanted to pounce on that woman and bite her neck.
• "Ling Jiawen, why are you doing this? Father loves you so much and I treated you as my real mother. Why are you so wicked? You will go to hell; you will die a most horrible death!"
• Ling Jiawen smiled in great satisfaction.
• "Those are not important at all. Most importantly, now the Gu Group belong to me and you are my most important chess piece."
• She pushed Gu Qiaoge back to the floor and wiped her hands as she walked to the door. After a few steps, she paused.
• "You don't need me to teach you what not to say and what not to do, right? Remember, your father and brother are in my hands. No one knows where they are aside from me. Even if you were to tell Lu Beichuan the truth, he wouldn't be able to help you."
• "Then again, who would leave their beautiful wife and accept a filthy woman like you? Hahaha..."
• *Bang!*
• The door was closed.
• Even after a long, long while, Gu Qiaoge could still hear Ling Jiawen's laughter resounding by her ears.
• The woman collapsed on the tiles and broke into tears.
• Lu Beichuan.
• Could a person like her has any right to show up before him?
• ......
• Before the huge finance building.
• A low-profile black vehicle revved to the entrance. The moment the car stopped; Gu Qiaoge was pushed out the car mercilessly.
• She stumbled a few steps and covered the blinding lights before her eyes instinctively.
• It had been too long since she saw the sunlight. The woman was feeling a burning sensation in her eyes.
• In order to cover the wounds and scars on her body, Ling Jiawen had spent a great effort to do her make up. It was a hot summer day yet she was wearing a long sleeve and thick blouse.
• The woman looked at her surroundings fearfully.
• Right after she turned around, there was an extended Lincoln Continental approaching and parked slowly right in front of her.
• The moment the door was opened, a long leg in formal trousers stepped out the door.
• The moment Gu Qiaoge saw that face, she was petrified. It was like all of her blood froze and her mind went blank.
• "He is here! Lu Beichuan is here!"
• All of a sudden, there was a huge group of paparazzi charging towards the man with their gadgets.
• She was squeezed in the middle and forcefully pushed forward. Someone bumped into her frail body and she fell forward.
