Prosperity: Conquering Billions of Gambling Kings

Chapter 98 The Cruel Truth

The man hummed, walked up to her, and silently put the scroll in his hand on her desk, "You are depressed, do you have something on your mind?"

The torch-like eyes, like a sharp sword, directly penetrated into her heart, seeing through her thoughts.

"I..." Gu Xiaobei opened his mouth, raised his face and looked at him hesitantly, "Can I ask a question?"

"Say."

"July..." Gu Xiaobei's thin lips tightened, and Gu Xiaobei asked desperately, "Did Mr. Tan kill the whole family of Qiyue?"

A handsome face like a natural sculpture suddenly darkened, and his ink-like eyes were fixed on Gu Xiaobei's face.

In the room, the silent atmosphere made Gu Xiaobei's heart beat very hard.

Looking at Fourth Master's expression, is it really like this...

"Who did you hear?"

After a long while of silence, the deep and cold voice came to Gu Xiaobei's ears.

"I...I..." Gu Xiaobei breathed a sigh of relief and mustered up his courage to say, "I guessed, but Fourth Master's expression already told me the answer..."

She's not a fool, fourth master's expression is quite shocked, it's obvious from a glance.

So, she really guessed right.

"So, fourth master also knows the truth, right? Mr. Tan killed more than 30 members of Qiyue's family, but he tricked her around?" Gu Xiaobei asked in disbelief.

The truth is cruel.

If one day, Qiyue knew that the man she had always relied on was her father-killing enemy, how painful would it be for her?

"How can you do this……"

Just thinking about it, Gu Xiaobei felt terribly cold inside.

Sure enough, the rumors about Mr. Tan from the Shanghai Bund Youth Gang were true, and he actually did it...

Wouldn't he regret it every day at home with July day and night?Don't you have nightmares with so many people's blood on your hands?

Why can you act like nothing happened?And it's kept secret...

Under his wings, Qiyue may never know the truth of the matter for the rest of her life.

In this Shanghai with a population of millions, there are so many people who vaguely know the truth about the extermination of her family. Only she is like a fool, thinking that her father was killed because he was involved in a gang struggle...

"Gu Xiaobei!"

Rong Chen raised his hand suddenly, pinching her slender chin with his rough fingertips, looking down at her face with low-pitched eyes, his voice was cold, like an ice stream in winter.

"No matter where you heard these words, forget them right now! Don't mention them in front of anyone in the future!"

The lower jaw was pinched, Gu Xiaobei's face was forced to lift up slightly, and the posture was a bit uncomfortable.

Accustomed to seeing Rong Chen who was majestic and calm, Gu Xiaobei had never seen him look so serious and domineering, even a bit fierce, and couldn't help trembling.

"Did you hear what I said?"

Seeing that she didn't answer, Rong Chen's voice raised a few degrees, and his face was stern and cold.

His chin hurt from being pinched, Gu Xiaobei's eyes sparkled, and he nodded hastily in fear.

After a while, Rong Chen let her go.

Gu Xiaobei heard his panting breath gradually relax.

"Fourth master, why..."

"You just said you can't bring it up again, and you still ask?"

Gu Xiaobei didn't say a word, but Rong Chen spoke coldly, making her swallow her doubts abruptly.

Cursing her lips, Gu Xiaobei felt reluctant, but had to keep her mouth shut.

When his eyes dropped, Rong Chen noticed the red mark on her chin.
