Chapter 947 — Two Choices, Repaid Double!

In the villa's living room, Gu Pengzhan looked at the overbearing Yu Bide with sorrow in his eyes. He had long known that there was no reasoning with the domineering Yu family, yet everyone clings to a sliver of hope. Now it seemed there was no other way. Gu Pengzhan could only manage a bitter smile. "Yu Bide, you go too far! Men do, and Heaven watches! One day, sooner or later, this kind of retribution will fall upon the Yu family!"

"Haha, I, Yu, shall wait for that day! Let me see where this retribution is!" Yu Bide did not take Gu Pengzhan's words to heart in the slightest. This world was a world where the strong survived; the weak being prey to the strong was an eternal truth. He laughed heartily and turned to look at Gu Mengyao and Shen Yushu. "Which of you two is Gu Mengyao? You can come with me now!"

Gu Mengyao drew a deep breath and slowly rose to her feet, a trace of resolve showing in her eyes. "I am."

"Good, then you can come with me!" Yu Bide nodded. He was also fairly pleased with Shen Yushu, and could not help asking with some regret, "And who are you?"

"She is from the Chen family. If you dare, you can take her back too!" Gu Mengyao looked at Yu Bide with a hint of mockery and said flatly.

"The Chen family?" Yu Bide's expression froze. He suddenly recalled that earlier investigation reports showed that the Chen family's granddaughter, Shen Yushu, was a good friend of Gu Pengzhan's daughter! Although the Chen family had declined, they were still one of the great families. Yu Bide did not dare provoke them outright, so he gave a haughty laugh. "The Chen family and the Yu family have never had any grievances. Why would I take her? It's you I'm taking!"

"Aren't you afraid I'll kill your son? Go ahead and take me back, then." Gu Mengyao raised her head, looking at Yu Bide with the eyes of one who had accepted death.

Yes, Gu Mengyao was stalling for time! Just moments ago, Xiaoshu had secretly signaled her to delay, to wait for Brother Arrow Brand!

Although Gu Mengyao did not know why Shen Yushu had suddenly gained such confidence, she still did as she was told! Xiaoshu might be flighty and erratic, but Gu Mengyao had to admit that many things spoken from her mouth had come true! Calling her a prophet was truly no exaggeration!

In truth, Shen Yushu herself did not know why she had such faith in Brother Arrow Brand. It was just that she had heard two barks from a dog a moment ago, which suddenly reminded her of that day when General Mighty was injured and Wei Zhao took him into a room to treat him. Before General Mighty recovered and Wei Zhao came out of the room, Shen Yushu had also heard two excited barks from General Mighty — a cry of joy, exactly the same as today!

"You dare!" Yu Bide's expression turned somewhat ugly after hearing Gu Mengyao's words. "Believe it or not, I'll kill your whole family right now!"

"I don't believe it!" A voice rang out faintly. Though it was not loud, it was filled with confidence!

It was Wei Zhao! Gu Mengyao turned her head in disbelief, and sure enough, she saw Wei Zhao walking out of the room, that faint, somewhat punchable smile on his face, and at his feet, the awe-inspiring General Mighty.

Gu Pengzhan was startled as well. He had not expected Wei Zhao to come out of the room at this moment, and to stand up for his daughter at that! Could he handle the Yu family? Gu Pengzhan was very much afraid that if the Yu family flew into a rage, they would turn on Wei Zhao as well!

Shen Yushu, however, was thrilled. She felt that her prophecy had come true once again!

"Wei Zhao? You still dare to come out? I thought you'd run off!" Yu Bide did not take Wei Zhao seriously at all. In his view, he was already doing Wei Zhao a great favor by not going after him; Wei Zhao dared to step forward on his own? Did he really think the Yu family did not dare kill him?

"The Yu family, is it? I hear you want all of Uncle Chu's shares in the Gu Group?" Wei Zhao ignored Yu Bide's mockery and asked flatly.

"So what if I do? You have a problem with that?" Yu Bide asked coldly.

"Oh, a portion of the shares in Uncle Chu's hands are mine. You want to take them without asking me?" Wei Zhao's tone remained calm, but it was full of the flavor of accusation. "And you want to forcibly take Yaoyao back to the Yu family to be a concubine? Is there water in your head?"

"Wei Zhao, do you want to die?" A flame of fury blazed in Yu Bide's eyes. He could endure no more. Although his second brother had advised him earlier not to act rashly against Wei Zhao, at this moment he wanted nothing more than to strike Wei Zhao dead with his own palm! Even if the power behind Wei Zhao came forward to demand justice afterward, it would be Wei Zhao's own fault for meddling and bringing it on himself — what did that have to do with him?

"Whether I die or not is none of your concern." Wei Zhao looked at Yu Bide with some contempt. "But I do know that you are about to die. Now, I give you two choices. The first choice: hand over all the shares of the Yu family's auction house to me, throw in a share of your other businesses, and then send two girls from the Yu family to be my concubines! The second choice: you die!"

"Ha?" Yu Bide was so angered by Wei Zhao's words that he laughed. He had not expected Wei Zhao to dare utter such wildly greedy, brainless nonsense. Who did he think he was? Even if he had some other power backing him, right now he was nothing but a cripple. A cripple saying such things — was he tired of living?

"Oh, Brother Arrow Brand is too awesome! I'm the little wife, and from now on I'll have concubines below me to boss around!" Shen Yushu cried out excitedly.

Gu Mengyao could not help but smile as well. Wei Zhao's terms were simply the Yu family's own demands repaid twofold! She did not know where Wei Zhao had gotten such great confidence. Could it be that his strength had recovered?

But seeing the calm, confident smile on Wei Zhao's face, Gu Mengyao's heart relaxed. It was over, finally over, wasn't it? Everything would be fine!

Gu Pengzhan was somewhat surprised as well. He was no fool, and at this moment he too sensed something unusual. Wei Zhao had become forceful! And extremely forceful at that!

Only that fool Yu Bide had yet to realize why Wei Zhao had become so forceful. Hatred had filled his brain. He sneered coldly. "Aren't you afraid the wind will make your tongue flap? Give the Yu family's businesses to you? And two girls as well? You're dreaming! Let the Yu family's women be your concubines? What are you thinking? Are you brain-dead?"

"I'll give you three seconds to consider!" Wei Zhao paid no attention whatsoever to Yu Bide's mockery. "The countdown has begun. Three, two..."

"No need to put on an act. Let me do the counting for you! Two point nine, two point eight, two point seven..." Yu Bide cut in at once. In his view, Wei Zhao was merely putting on a bluff!
