Addicted: Book One - The Inquietude of Youth

Chapter 190 - GU HAI successfully ESCAPES

First of all, he wanted to tease Bai Luo Yin and secondly, he wanted to make him give up and back out of this difficult situation. Only then could he have a smooth and peaceful night of sleep so that he could be energetic enough to go to the military base the next day.

Who would have guessed that in the end, he himself was unexpectedly extorted and wronged by Bai Luo Yin instead!!

---

Early in the morning, Gu Wei Ting received a call from Gu Yang.

"Uncle, are you at the military base?"

Finding it rather peculiar to hear his nephew's voice so early, Gu Wei Ting quickly constructed a defensible wall in his mind to guard against any sudden attacks. "I'm here. What's going on?"

"Oh. I have something I wanted to ask you for help with. What do you think, is it more convenient to meet face to face outside, or should I go to the base?"

"You can come over here."

After hanging up Gu Yang's call for just a moment, Sun Jingwei knocked on the door and entered to remind Gu Wei Ting that he has a conference to participate in. He was in the middle of getting ready when the call came through. Now, the car for the conference needed to set off at once.

"Oh, there's a conference today......" Gu Wei Ting's fingers tapped the desk, "I've forgotten about this matter already."

Having said that he got up and tidied his things while incessantly massaging his temple with his hand. From the looks of it, his mental state did not seem to be well either.

Sun Jingwei stood at the door, his eyes stared straight ahead on the floor at the center of the room the entire time. When Gu Wei Ting shifted his gaze over, Sun Jingwei turns his head around and feigned a calm expression as if he was aloof.

For the past two days, Sun Jingwei had been quite obedient and guileless. If there were no urgent tasks, he barely entered Gu Wei Ting's room. And always upon entering, he only spoke a few words before taking his leave. With each time, never once did he mentioned Gu Hai's situation.

Just as Gu Wei Ting was about to leave, Gu Yang's call came through once again.

"Uncle, I'm already at the entrance."

"I have a conference to attend now. You can stay in the guest room and wait for me for a while. Or, you can go directly to my place and wait there."

Even after he put his phone away, Gu Wei Ting felt a strange aura hovering over him which left him feeling insecure. So as to give himself a slight peace of mind, he dispatched two more soldiers to guard the door. Then, with a stern and powerful glare, he intentionally exhorted to them a few words using a life-threatening tone.

"He can freely enter or exit, but he cannot leave with anyone. Remember, guard the two rooms on either side well. If something happens, I'll be looking for you two directly."

"Understood sir!!!" The two soldiers shouted uniformly.

Gu Yang emerged from a luxurious car, wearing an extremely flashy outfit. He had on a sleek black suit that outlined his slim figure, a hat--definitely an expensive one--an oversized pair of sunglasses and a stern and dignified expression to match his overall appearance......he leisurely walked over from the distance with much grandeur that the four soldiers on duty thought that he was a famous movie star once they saw him.

After he showed his identification card the four soldiers conceded and allowed him to enter, their eyes brimming with envy and respect.

"Did you see? The General's nephew is really handsome."
