When the two arrived at the secluded courtyard where Ge Shaoting was being looked after, they unsurprisingly encountered Gu Beizhan at the entrance.
Compared to his previous appearance when he was recovering from a serious illness and was slightly weak but still maintained a neat and tidy image like a cadre, Gu Beizhan was now disheveled and definitely looked very dejected, with stubble and a messy beard.
There were many things on the ground where he was standing, including food, clothes, and shoes, indicating that he had been turned away.
The two plainclothes officers from the Special Branch also looked troubled. They were talking when they saw a car approaching and immediately looked over.
The car slowly came to a stop. Chu Xin got out first. She already had a falling out with Gu Beizhan, so she didn't bother with pleasantries and didn't even say hello before showing her identification to her colleague. "Old Ge agreed to let us take the person away. I'm going in now."
Two plainclothes officers from the Special Branch had already seen Zhou Yichen get out of the car. They glanced at the identification handed to them, nodded, and made way for Chu Xin to enter.
Seeing this, Gu Beizhan eagerly pushed forward, "Me, I want to go in too!"
Zhou Yichen reached out to stop him, his attitude firm, "Uncle Gu, let's talk!"
Gu Beizhan looked anxious, as if he had seen Zhou Yichen as a savior. He grabbed Zhou Yichen's arm and pleaded, "Little Zhou, please help me! Lian Nan doesn't want to see me, you..."
"Uncle Gu!" Zhou Yichen interrupted him with a stronger tone, his gaze firmly gesturing for him to come with him.
"You won't get anywhere doing this. Ge... Gu Liannan won't sympathize with you, and it won't matter who you beg."
Upon hearing this, Gu Beizhan was deeply saddened. His expression was sorrowful, and he looked increasingly weak. Under Zhou Yichen's forceful influence, he followed him to the side.
As Chu Xin entered the courtyard, she saw Ge Shaoting lounging in a rocking chair under the pomegranate tree.
"You're doing well. I wish I had come later."
A teasing female voice rang out, and Ge Shaoting suddenly opened his eyes and turned around. After seeing that it was Chu Xin, he closed his eyes again and lay back down.
The voice was slow and gentle, "You could try being locked up and doing nothing but eating and sleeping all day. Would that kind of life without freedom be a good life?"
Chu Xin raised an eyebrow, found a seat, and thought about it seriously for a moment before answering firmly, "Yes, I dream of doing nothing like this, as long as I'm comfortable and someone takes care of my food and clothing. I can choose what to eat, drink, and sleep as I please. It's such a good deal to trade a little bit of freedom for this."
Ge Shaoting opened his eyes again and looked at her, frowning. "Are you serious?"
Chu Xin: "Of course."
Even if someone is watching her, or even if a small team surrounds her, she can disappear from everyone's sight at any time if she wants to leave. So what if she is only kept like a pig for a few days? It's not like she's locked up for life.
She told Ge Shaoting to suppress his resentment, "Don't look like you've suffered a terrible ordeal. The Special Branch said they were guarding you, but they only sent two people. What's the difference between that and sending two doormen to watch over you?"
Although it sounds like a slap in the face to your own people, the truth is that if you want to get out, they can't stop you. In the end, you chose to be locked up, so why are you trying to play the victim?
"So, have you made up your mind? Are you going to let your father go or kill him to end this troublesome matter?"
Ge Shaoting's eyelids twitched violently, and he looked at Chu Xin as if she were a lunatic. "You have antisocial personality disorder?"
"Whether you oppose it or not, you can try it."
Chu Xin also despised him, "I can say that the reason you're so obediently locked up is because you want to use the Special Branch to block Gu Beizhan, right?"
She deliberately used herself to lure him into tormenting her, and now she's acting all high and mighty, as if she really thinks she's a good person?
Would Ge Shaoting, who could kill his adoptive father's son and then wear down his adoptive father to become the highest authority, be a coward hiding in the shadows?
He was simply taken advantage of and locked up here. He got free lodging and food without lifting a finger, and he could even provoke his father, who was like an enemy, every day. He got all the benefits!
When his words were exposed, Ge Shaoting merely glanced at Chu Xin and smiled slightly, saying, "I really didn't expect you to understand me so well. Alas, what a pity. If it weren't for Zhou Yichen, I would have wanted to pursue you. I have money and power, and you have brains and strength. In Hong Kong, we are invincible."
"You're probably just dreaming!"
Chu Xin rolled her eyes, her expression and tone filled with contempt. "Stop talking nonsense. Have you thought about what you want to do? If you really can't get over it, your father is outside. I can stop Zhou Yichen from stopping you from making a move."
Ge Shaoting: ...
Sister, are you reciting a tongue twister?
But it is as ferocious as ever.
“I hate him, and I wish he were dead, but I’m not completely out of my mind. If I did this on the mainland, I couldn’t escape. Isn’t it only right that he suffers a bit?”
Chu Xin nodded perfunctorily, "Alright, alright, you're right, it's all as it should be. Now let's leave together."
"If you've had your fun, you should get out of here as soon as possible. This isn't Hong Kong."
Originally, she and Zhou Yichen had the same question: how could someone like Ge Shaoting, who treated scheming and plotting like a puzzle game, suddenly become so stupid as to dig up graves right under people's noses? It was too strange.
It wasn't until today, when Chu Xin saw Gu Beizhan outside the door looking disheveled, pale, and weak, and then compared him to Ge Shaoting leisurely lying in the courtyard enjoying the cool air, that she immediately realized that it was all his doing.
Ge Shaoting wanted Gu Beizhan to know that he was still alive, that he had not only dug up his own mother's grave but also deeply hated him, so that even though Gu Beizhan knew where he was, he could only beg to see him.
Unable to kill his father with his own hands, he chose to torture him.
