He got out of the car and opened the door for her in a very gentlemanly manner: "Gu has something to do with Miss Xia Tong. I wonder if you are willing to give her a favor."
Xia Tong hesitated, not knowing whether he should get in the car or not.
He added: "It's the lawsuit about Lawyer Yi. I think Miss Xia will be interested in it."
"What about Senior Yi?"
He nodded.
"Okay", Xia Tong got into the car, "but I'm in a hurry now, I'm afraid I can only stay for an hour."
Gu Haoran raised the corners of his lips but said nothing.
**** ****
Half an hour later, the car stopped next to an abandoned factory in the suburbs.
Gu Haoran parked the car and pulled her out. Xia Tong looked at everything around him doubtfully: "Why did you bring me here?"
He held her hand and walked toward the factory, "You'll find out later."
Before Xia Tong entered the factory, she heard the sound of punching and kicking, accompanied by a man's painful wail. She glanced at him uneasily, feeling something was wrong.
"Remember, if you have anything to ask or need later, just ask directly, understand?" He stopped at the door of the factory and warned her.
Although she didn't understand what he was talking about, Xia Tong still nodded and let him lead her inside.
Although he had been mentally prepared before, when Xia Tong saw the scene in front of him clearly, he still covered his mouth in surprise.
I saw a man lying on the ground in embarrassment, holding his stomach, and around him were at least five or six burly men, who beat and kicked him without mercy. On the dirty ground, pools of blood could be seen.
People are shocked——
"Why did you hit him? What did he do?" Xia Tong asked in surprise.
Gu Haoran didn't answer, but just approached the big men, waved his hand and said, "Stop."
Those people stopped immediately, and the man lying on the ground vomited another mouthful of blood. He lost all his strength and could only breathe weakly...
Gu Haoran walked up to him and kicked him in the face: "Lawyer Xu, the beating just now is a small gift from me, Gu. I hope you won't dislike it..."
"
The man laughed contemptuously, "I know why you are looking for me! Gu Haoran, I tell you, it's impossible! I can't let go of the lawsuit. I'm just waiting for that boy Yi to get out of the legal profession!"
"
No matter how confused Xia Tong was, she now understood a bit. She had learned from her previous chat with Senior Yi that the photos of Senior Yi selling herself in France were leaked out during a lawsuit, and the person who broke the news was
It was Xu Chen, the lawyer on the opposing side of the lawsuit.
And now the man lying on the ground with a bruised nose and face being beaten is probably that lawyer!
Gu Haoran laughed: "Mr. Xu, don't worry, what I, Gu, hate the most is forcing others to make things difficult for me." He turned around and raised his fingers towards Xia Tong, "Come here?"
Xia Tong walked over without knowing why. He gently brushed her messy hair and asked: "Miss Xia Tong, which part of him do you think is more interesting if I chop it off?"
Xia Tong was stunned, almost unable to believe his ears.
He took the short knife handed to him by his subordinates, squatted down, and patted Xu Chen's face with the blade: "What do you think of this place? Use the knife to cut off the flesh on the face piece by piece until the flesh and blood are blurred. It should be very painful."
Interesting."
Xu Chen trembled under the blade, but did not speak.
"Don't be like this -" Xia Tong knelt down and held his hand: "Gu Haoran, don't be like this -."
"Or do you think it would be more fun to cut off the hands, chop off the fingers one by one, but not chop them off, so that he would always endure the pain of having his fingers cut off?" He stretched out a hand and touched her face.
: "Okay, it's up to you."
After saying that, he raised the knife and dropped it. Xu Chen held up his hand and screamed in pain. There was a bright red severed finger on the ground.
Xia Tong jumped away with an "ah" sound.
Gu Haoran threw away the knife, stood up and hugged her, "Okay, don't be afraid. If you don't like it, let's not play such a bloody game and find another way -"
After saying that and winking, the burly men took a gasoline barrel from nowhere and poured it on Xu Chen. A heavy smell of gasoline hit his nose...
Xu Chen began to yell angrily: "What are you doing? Get away from me..."
However, the extreme weakness of his body and the severe pain in his hands made him unable to resist at all, and he could only let his whole body be soaked in gasoline and become miserable.
"In such a sparsely populated suburb, I think even if I kill you, no one will know about it for ten days and a half. And if I set a fire, I'm afraid there won't even be a complete body of Lawyer Xu after his death. I really
It’s a bit unbearable!”
Gu Haoran pulled Xia Tong further away and gave her a lighter, "Okay, let's leave the last game to Miss Xia. Have fun."
The man in front of her smiled softly and harmlessly, like the most uncontested nobleman, but he was so ruthless in his bones that it made people shudder. After these few short meetings, Xia Tong found that she couldn't see through him.
.In other words, he never lets others see through him. Whenever she feels that she has caught something, he will smile and change his appearance, making you feel like a fool.
Xia Tong looked down at the lighter in his hand, not knowing what to do.
At this moment, Xu Chen suddenly shouted: "Mr. Gu, I was wrong, please forgive me... As long as you can spare me, I will do anything..." His survival instinct finally made him
I let go of my pride.”
"Oh?" Gu Haoran approached him with a smile: "So about Lawyer Yi's photo——."
"The man in the photo is not Lawyer Yi at all, he is just a man who looks very similar to Lawyer Yi. I deliberately slandered Lawyer Yi as having prostituted himself in France, just to discredit him and make him unable to stay in the legal profession! All of this.
I did it, the photos were forged by me, everything is mine..." Xu Chen couldn't control himself and cried.
"Mr. Xu is indeed a smart man. At tomorrow's press conference, I hope you will not forget what you said here today, otherwise I can't guarantee what will happen to your lovely daughter..."
***** *****
In the car, Xia Tong patted his chest in shock, feeling that everything that had just happened was like an unreal dream.
Gu Haoran looked her over: "Miss Xia Tong seems to be scared?"
"You just--" She hesitated: "Did you really plan to set him on fire just now?"
He moved his face closer: "Kiss me and I'll tell you!"
