Chapter 206: Release her!
Gu Qingjiu’s appearance in the living room was rather abrupt.
In her army green military uniform, she clearly didn’t fit in with the opulence of the Yu family home.
Her eyes looked exquisite, and yet it had a cold tinge to it. Because of the rushed trip, the military uniform that she hadn’t changed out of appeared wrinkled on her...
And it added a hint of casualness to her overall look.
Yu Shaotian was in his forties, and he was nearly turning fifty this year.
He turned his head towards Gu Qingjiu, subtly sizing her up.
In his younger days, he was a handsome playboy. But even as he aged, it didn’t conceal his past glory.
Different from most people, Yu Shaotian maintained his figure extremely well.
In terms of energy levels, he appeared no different from a youngster.
Even though he was advanced in age, he was still a gorgeous man.
To his surprise, he smiled as he gazed at Gu Qingjiu. “You are Qingjiu, right?”
Although he had asked it as a question, he already knew the answer.
Gu Qingjiu remained standing where she was and showed them an icy gaze.
Tan Yalan wiped the corners of her lips elegantly and set down her fork and knife. And to Yu Shaotian, she said, “She just arrived. Perhaps she’s still not used to it.”
The hypocritical smile she pulled made Gu Qingjiu feel disgusted.
She didn’t wish to waste time, so she said directly, “Did you know I’m a recruit in the military? Did you know how serious a crime it is to kidnap a soldier?”
Tan Yalan’s smile froze.
Yu Shaotian turned to look at her, somewhat stunned. “Kidnap? What kidnap? Didn’t you say she came back with you on her own accord?”
Tan Yalan couldn’t sit still any longer.
It was only then that Gu Qingjiu realized that this was purely Tan Yalan’s idea and that not everyone in the Yu family knew about this.
But Gu Qingjiu felt that it didn’t matter whether Yu Shaotian was in the know or not.
“Did you know how horrid her attitude was towards me? Her adoptive parents taught her to regard us with too great a hatred. If I didn’t use such a method, she wouldn’t come back. She simply ignored me!”
She could see this very clearly.
Gu Qingjiu snickered. “This has nothing to do with my parents. You kidnapped me and you’re still counting on me to have good vibes towards you? I’m really glad that it wasn’t both of you who raised me in the last eighteen years.”
“Now that you’re here, you’re still treating us with this attitude!”
Tan Yalan slammed the table and got to her feet.
Yu Shaotian was more steady than Tan Yalan, or to put it more accurately, more hypocritical.
He first waved his hand, appearing to have a headache. “Alright, alright. Yalan, sit down first. Let me talk to her.”
Tan Yalan held back the anger and sat down first.
However, just as Yu Shaotian was about to reason with Gu Qingjiu, Mama Wu suddenly rushed forward, holding a phone.
She appeared nervous and spoke briefly in a hushed tone. Gu Qingjiu could barely hear her, but she could still make out her words.
“Master, a call from the Dayi City Military. They specified that they’re looking for you.”
Gu Qingjiu felt delighted.
Did they realize that she was missing that quickly?
Upon hearing this, Yu Shaotian’s expression changed.
Even if Tan Yalan kidnapped Gu Qingjiu, she ought to have taken care of the troubles.
Why was the Dayi City Military calling him?
As he didn’t know who the caller was, Yu Shaotian glared at Tan Yalan before answering the call. He then tried his best to sound normal.
“Hello?”
However, from the other end of the line came an icy and murderous voice. Even separated by the phone, Yu Shaotian could feel his neck turn chilly all of a sudden.
“Release her!”
