Contract Marriage: Love Has Finally Arrived

Chapter 76: Chapter 76 Rewarding the Lion with Lunch?

“Qiangwei… Qiangwei! I’m your dad, you can’t treat me like this!”

Yet, no matter how loudly he yelled, the figure in the garden never turned back.

Returning to the living room, Gu Qiangwei sank into the sofa, her eyes hollow and desolate.

It wasn’t until the sound of footsteps approached that she looked up, meeting Qin Sijue’s gaze as he walked in.

“How do you plan to deal with him?” she asked softly, her voice somewhat choked and hoarse.

“How would you like to deal with him?” He took a seat beside her, his deep eyes fixed on her face, which clearly showed traces of tears.

Gu Qiangwei looked down, feeling somewhat at a loss inside.

After all, he was her father, the man who had given her life.

But this very father had almost destroyed her life by his own hands.

“How about giving him to that lion as lunch?”

His words were light as a feather, but they made Gu Qiangwei abruptly look up in shock at the man sitting calmly before her.

Give him to that lion as lunch? Did he mean, let the lion eat him!?

That thought made Gu Qiangwei involuntarily swallow hard.

Gu Zhendong deserved death, but she had never truly wished for his life to be taken.

From the depths of her dark eyes, Qin Sijue saw her hesitation.

It was still her biological father, after all, and her heart couldn’t harden entirely.

“Then let’s starve him for three days without food or water!” The man rose, his tall and perfect figure like a flawless sculpture.

To this punishment, Gu Qiangwei inexplicably breathed a sigh of relief.

She couldn’t bear to imagine what a horrible scene it would be to send Gu Zhendong to the lion’s mouth, and she might end up being accused of patricide!

When she looked up again, the man had already stood up and was heading upstairs.

Shortly after, he changed into a crisp, handmade suit—his immaculate physique complemented by his innate noble aura—made Gu Qiangwei stare momentarily.

This man was truly too perfect, utterly out of reach.

With a relaxed and elegant gait, he walked over and stood in front of her.

The man’s overwhelming presence immediately enveloped her.

Gu Qiangwei looked up into his eyes as dark as night, thinking he was about to say something, but he simply glanced at her before turning and walking towards the main door.

As he left, the butler stood at the entrance, respectfully bowing to him, “Young Master, take care.”

Not until his figure had completely vanished, and the sound of the engine became fainter from the courtyard, did Gu Qiangwei withdraw her gaze.

Just then, she suddenly felt a dull pain in the upper part of her abdomen.

This was not good, it must be because she had eaten seafood porridge earlier.

Sitting on the sofa, Gu Qiangwei clutched her stomach, the pain causing her brows to furrow deeply.

“Young Madam, what’s wrong with you?”

Upon turning around, Qin Bo immediately noticed something was amiss with her on the sofa and couldn’t help but walk over and ask with concern.

By now, Gu Qiangwei’s face had turned somewhat pale.

“It’s nothing, my stomach just feels a bit uncomfortable.” Saying this, she stood, intending to lie down upstairs for a while.

But hearing this, Qin Bo became worried, “Your stomach hurts? Should I call the doctor for you?”

As he spoke, he was ready to make the call!

Gu Qiangwei had experienced stomach pains before, so she wasn’t very concerned, thinking a little rest should remedy it.

She thus held her stomach with one hand and said softly, “No need, I’ll feel better after lying down for a bit.”

Having said that, she headed straight for the upstairs.

Watching her ascend, Qin Bo still felt a tinge of worry.
