Chapter 013: Let Them Try to Touch Me!:
Han Yi slept soundly through the night!
When he woke up early the next morning, Han Yushi had already quietly left his room and seemed to have gone out, as she wasn’t at home.
After finishing his morning routine and while eating breakfast, Fatty Xu came over to Han’s house, all smiles.
“Boss, I’m here!” Xu Fatty greeted, bowing and scraping as he sat down.
This guy was somewhat chubby, with a shrewd look in his eyes, a sign of his cleverness.
“Is it done?” Han Yi asked.
“Of course it’s done! How could I slack off on what the boss ordered?” Fatty Xu replied with a grin, laying out a pile of documents in front of Han Yi.
These documents included photos, images, and various written descriptions. Seeing Fatty Xu’s dark circles, Han Yi knew he had put in a lot of effort.
“Boss, this is Gu Xueming. She’s thirty-six and rumored to be the mistress of a high-ranking provincial official!” Xu Fatty pointed at a photo and said, “This is her. She’s got the looks and the figure. She was a village girl who became a mistress because of her beauty. Over the years, she’s started her own company and it’s thriving!”
“Have you heard of the Gu Group? It’s the most popular group in Donghai City right now, involved in real estate, entertainment, electronics, stocks, and more, with assets worth billions. Gu Xueming built it all.”
“By the way, the Dunhuang Palace we often visit is hers. This woman is very capable and has a strong background. Ordinary people wouldn’t dare provoke her!”
After Fatty Xu’s introduction, Han Yi had a rough idea about this woman.
However, he didn’t care about her background; he just needed to know who she was because she had to die!
“Where is she now?” Han Yi asked.
Fatty Xu smiled. “At Dunhuang Palace! This woman loves to spend her time there. She must be checking the accounts early in the morning.”
“Very good!”
Han Yi nodded in satisfaction. He put down his chopsticks, and stood up to leave.
“Huh? Boss, what are you planning to do?” Xu Fatty exclaimed.
“Kill her!” Han Yi replied coldly.
“Kill her? You want to kill Gu Xueming? Oh my god!” Fatty Xu was terrified. “The bigwig behind her is higher in rank than your uncle! You dare to kill her? And if you really want to kill her, shouldn’t you hire an assassin? Aren’t you afraid of causing a huge commotion by going there yourself?”
Han Yi couldn’t be bothered to explain. This wasn’t something Fatty Xu should get involved in.
To his surprise, Xu Fatty eagerly followed. Han Yi got into a Maybach, and Fatty Xu quickly took the front passenger seat.
“What are you doing?” Han Yi asked.
Xu Fatty grinned. “Wherever the boss goes, I go! It’s just killing someone. I’ll help you!”
“Don’t wet yourself later. Hold on tight!” Han Yi shifted gears, and with a roar, the Maybach sped out of the villa toward Dunhuang Palace.
…
Dunhuang Palace was a club!
In fact, this was no ordinary club; it was the most upscale club in Donghai City, offering all kinds of entertainment imaginable. Only the rich and powerful could become members; ordinary people couldn’t get in.
It was still early morning, and the club was almost empty, with most guests yet to arrive and many staff members not yet at work.
However, Gu Xueming was already in her office on the third floor, with a young man with yellow hair lounging nearby.
Gu Xueming wore a professional women’s suit, looking competent, beautiful, and very feminine. She exuded the aura of a woman well-versed in all kinds of situations. The young man beside her had greasy hair and a flashy look, seemed like a nouveau riche, sporting dyed yellow hair.
This was her nephew, Gu Feiteng. He was abandoned at a young age, Gu Xueming had taken care of him since she became successful. Though young, he was quite capable, excelling in fights, troublemaking, gambling, and womanizing, with a group of followers under him, helping Gu Xueming manage some businesses.
“Aunt, why did you call me here so early?” Gu Feiteng asked impatiently.
Gu Xueming put down her account book, a trace of worry in her beautiful eyes. “My left eye has been twitching all morning. I think something might happen. Get your people to the club quickly and tell the staff not to come to work for now.”
“What’s going on?” Gu Feiteng was initially confused, then enraged. “Who dares to mess with us? Are they tired of living? Who’s so reckless?”
“I’m not sure. Maybe it’s the Han family!” Gu Xueming sighed.
There was one thing she hadn’t mentioned.
She had discovered last night that the ghost doll she had obtained from Thailand had lost its control. When she offered her blood to it, the doll showed no reaction. This ghost doll had brought her many benefits, especially targeting Han Jian.
Now that it was out of control, Gu Xueming was naturally flustered.
She felt uneasy since early morning, sensing that something was about to happen. She also had a hunch that the Han family might come to settle accounts with her.
Gu Feiteng scoffed. “The Han family? What can they do? We’re not afraid of them in either the black or white world. Do you think they can bite us? Besides, didn’t you use that ghost doll? As long as it slowly destroys Han Jian’s health and takes away his fortune, we’ll prosper without even knowing it!”
Gu Xueming said worriedly, “It’s not that simple! The Han family is not to be trifled with. You’re too young to understand these things.”
Gu Feiteng sneered, “Hmph! Why be afraid of them? The Han family might seem big and powerful, but they have many enemies. At least our backers aren’t afraid of them. If it comes to a showdown, we have plenty of people under us. We can just spend some money to hire assassins. Who’s afraid of whom? Let them try to touch me!”
Gu Xueming sighed in relief, then said arrogantly, “That’s true! In all of Donghai City, the big shots are just a bunch of cowards. I, a woman, can play them like puppets. The Han family is no big deal. Fei Teng, better safe than sorry, let’s close Dunhuang Palace for the day!”
