1252: How Cool!

How Cool!

"It is as I expected of Godfather's right-hand man. Even your words are endearing." The woman patted Ah Zhu's cheek gently. It did not hurt him, but her movements were slightly frivolous. Of course, she narrowed her eyes as she said, "You were quite imposing when you beat someone up today."2

Wen Yunfang giggled softly as she noticed the change in Ah Zhu's expression. "Are you afraid? Don't worry; I'm not here to punish you. He is simply a tiny shrimp. It will not affect our friendship. I am here to ask about the man you sent to the hospital.

The woman asked, "He looks like a foreigner. He's a new face. Why haven't I seen him before? Does he know you? Is he your friend? What's his relationship with that woman who only knows how to cry?"

"Young Miss, you're asking about Gu Changshu?"

Ah Zhu instantly understood her meaning. "Gu Changshu and Gu Junhui just arrived in Shu City yesterday. They can be considered acquaintances of mine. They're friends of my friend. Brother Ding wants to hire new people, so he will observe Gu Changshu for a few days before deciding to let him join us."

"They have the same surnames. Are they siblings?" The woman's red lips curled upward, and there was a hint of joy in her tone.

"No, they're husband and wife."

Ah Zhu shook his head. "They grew up together as neighbors. They're from the same town. I heard that they have the same surname—Gu."

The woman's expression immediately changed when she heard that they were husband and wife. She snorted coldly. "That Gu Changshu is very protective of his wife, huh? His wife is beautiful, but she only knows how to cry. Does he like her that much?"

Ah Zhu said, "Young Miss, Gu Junhui is akin to Gu Changshu's life! Gu Changshu has been in prison for more than nine years. He was just released a few months ago. His mother has left him. For more than nine years in prison, Gu Junhui was the only one who had stayed with him. She goes to prison every week to visit him. She saves money to buy food, clothes, and necessities for him. One can say that Gu Changshu has spent the rest of his life living for Gu Junhui. He treats Gu Junhui as something more important than his life."

Ah Zhu was a little envious when he mentioned that. If his woman were to treat him so well and not give up on him while he was in prison, he would also protect that woman as if his life depended on it.

"Nine years in prison? Has he been in prison before? No wonder when he looked at everyone with hostility just now. He had also refused to admit defeat. That kind of man is rare these days. He has courage, backbone, and even knows how to dote on women."

The woman praised Gu Changshu and asked, "Do you know why he was sent to prison?"

"He killed someone."

Of course, Ah Zhu knew about that. "He killed his stepfather when he was 19 years old."

"Oh, how cool. Murder..." Then, the woman sighed and waved at Ah Zhu. "Okay, you can go now. Help me take care of the man."

Ah Zhu's feet had just touched the ground when the car sped off; it was as if he was an inconvenience. If the person next to him did not pull him away, the vehicle would have been dragged by the speeding car.

Ah Zhu's legs were inconvenient. If it weren't for the person beside him pulling him, he would have been dragged into the car by now.

"What did she say to you, Brother Ah Zhu?" The person beside him asked jokingly.

Ah Zhu glanced at the hospital. He thought about the young miss' words before she let him off the car. He had a hunch that someone might have taken a fancy to Gu Changshu.

Ah Zhu was a little annoyed; he did not know whether that was a good or a bad thing.
