Chapter 1468: Just Want to Protect You
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Li Chen said, Just wanted to protect you.
He wanted to protect you well and keep you far away from Ghost City forever even if Ghost City was already peaceful now. He did not bear to let him experience any little form of danger. Really, not even a little.
“So he’d rather die, huh?”
“No!”
“What about family? He doesn’t even want them?” Yun An looked at him, being unable to understand him. Deep down, he felt really confused, and yet he was not sure if he was right. He felt even worse. “Tell me, are you Gu Yuanan?”
Li Chen was silent.
“Now, only you and I are here. So what if you tell me honestly? Would I go around telling the entire world that Gu Yuanan is still alive? Would I tell all of your enemies ‘Hey, your enemy isn’t dead, he’s still alive.’ I’m dying to hide him in a world where there is only me and him. Why must you...”
“Yes!”
“...” Yun An was astonished.
Yun An’s words were stuck in his throat, and his eyes widened. He stared at him, startled. His mind went blank, and he could not think of anything to say. He just stared at the man before him greedily and alarmed.
Yes?
Yes what?
Yes, he is Big Brother Gu?
But why was it Li Chen’s face?
“Xiao An...”
“Don’t touch me!” Yun An pushed his hand away. Li Chen and Gu Yuanan looked like two different people. Li Chen’s facial features were more indifferent. When he put on a cold face, he felt really distant and indifferent. He clearly looked like an indifferent man.
Yet, Gu Yuanan was a handsome gentleman. Li Chen’s facial features were sharper than Gu Yuanan’s. How could he be Li Chen? Was he putting on a mask?
“Xiao An, let’s have a drink.”
In a bar, outdoors.
Two men, two cups of beer.
Li Chen told Yun An a story slowly.
Indeed, Li Chen loved Gu Yuanan for many years. The two of them had also grown up together since young. Yet, Gu Yuanan’s feelings for Li Chen never exceeded that of regular friendship. Yet, Li Chen knew him best. Back then, he had also checked on the relationship between Yang Ping and Gu Yuanan. He was the first to know about their ties. There were many things about Gu Yuanan that were related to Yang Ping.
Many of his subordinates were removed through Yang Ping. Gu Yuanli devoured the power of the Ghost City bit by bit and removed the forces around him. He did not understand why the brother he had always loved would suddenly change. Someone even attempted to assassinate him and ambushed him, and he was living in danger every day. Under such circumstances, he met Yun An and fell in love with Yun An.
He did not want to bring Yun An into his world. In fact, he did not even like to be involved with Ghost City. For Second Old Master Gu, for this father and son relationship, he had to bear this responsibility. After realizing Gu Yuanli’s betrayal, he and Gu Yuanli had a long talk, and he was willing to confess to Gu Chun about what he had kept from Gu Yuanli. He then surrendered the power to manage and control Ghost City.
As long as Gu Yuanli was willing to, he could leave Ghost City to live a normal life like Fourth and Fifth Brother. He could care less about Ghost City’s affairs. Ghost City did not need two powerful second-generation Masters anyway.
Yet, Gu Yuanli was very contradictory. He was very determined to show his loyalty and that he would never ever betray Ghost City.
But the moment he stepped out of Gu Yuanli’s door, he bumped into people from Black Rose, who had come to assassinate him again and again. He lost his patience with Gu Yuanli. They spoke and argued before, and in fact, he even thought that his younger brother might have some unspeakable reasons that he was unwilling to share.
