Chapter 1030: The Ruthless Tyrant CEO's Grudge-Bearing Butler 43

Inside the Supervision Bureau.

Gu Yeting never imagined Gu Han would actually go this far.

But he obviously didn't think he had broken the law.

"The Gu Clan is a family business; I'm also a Gu Family member—do I need to prove to you that I'm using my own family's money?"

Gu Yeting's leg injury hadn't fully healed, but he wasn't just trying to look imposing; he simply didn't want to sit in a wheelchair without dignity, so he leaned on his crutch and stood to talk with Gu Han and the Supervision Bureau officers opposite, all while going crazy.

Gu Mu Jin Chen sat on the other side, listening, tapping his fingers on the table, and affirmed again.

As everyone knows, tyrant CEOs basically have no legal awareness, as if their over a decade of study automatically filtered out the word 'rule of law'.

Fortunately, their tyrant CEO doesn't have this strange habit.

He interrupted Gu Yeting: "Guess why public funds are called public funds instead of just 'the money in your wallet'?"

Gu Yeting: "……"

The Supervision Bureau officer almost couldn't hold back laughter, clenched his fist and coughed, then said solemnly: "Mr. Gu, you can either make up the public-funds shortfall within five working days, or, as the Gu CEO demands, we will enforce it forcibly, freezing all your assets until the shortfall is made up."

But Gu Yeting wasn't familiar with proper law; he was an expert at finding loopholes.

He had already become a UK citizen, and all his assets had been transferred to UK accounts, so domestic debt collection was ineffective in the UK.

All he needed was to successfully leave the country within the deadline.

Thinking this, Gu Yeting said confidently, "Fine, let me leave today, and I'll figure out how to make it up."

"No need, I've already thought of a solution for you."

Gu Mu Jin Chen snapped his fingers, drawing Gu Yeting's attention, and the members behind him immediately handed over an agreement.

"Considering your special nationality and status, to avoid unnecessary procedures, I've already transferred back the assets you need to make up."

Seeing Gu Yeting's disbelieving gaze, he let out an oh, a chill flashing in the corner of his eyes, and said, "By the way, this asset agreement and transfer were signed personally by your partner."

"He really is worried about you—he doesn't even want you detained a few more days."

Gu Yeting froze on the spot, staring blankly at the agreement awaiting signature and the prosecutors already ready to stamp it.

At this moment, his hatred for Gu Han and GuJunyuan finally spilled a little onto Bai Yunyue, the wife he'd shared decades with.

He knew he was beyond help, his whole body went limp in the chair, his crutch clattered to the floor, and he gave Gu Han, who wore a smile, a grim look.

"You really found yourself a good boyfriend."

Gu Han nodded, "Thanks for the praise."

The prosecutor urged, "Mr. Gu, you'd better sign quickly."

In the end, Gu Yeting chose signing over asset freezing.

Watching him sign, Gu Han sipped cold water, curled his lips in a smirk, and, right in Gu Yeting's face, acted spiteful and mocking.

Gu Yeting was so angry he almost picked up his crutch to strike someone.

He didn't act because he didn't dare—after all, Gu Mu Jin Chen was watching him like a tiger.

Nevertheless, due to the excessive malign influence and conduct, and because he was no longer a Huaxia citizen, many of his rights were restricted.

Not long after, he and Bai Yunyue returned to the UK, loving and fighting each other, and, having lost their former affluence, they argued constantly.

——

Meanwhile, Gu Mùjìn and Shen Yanyu—one hired a killer, the other had clear transaction and framing evidence—were both sentenced to fixed-term imprisonment under the manipulation of Gu Han's legal team.

On the day the judgment was about to be issued, Gu Han saw his aunt in Jiangnan, who had been recuperating there for years without seeing him, and Shen Yanyu's birth mother.

That day, Gu Han and Gu Mu Jin Chen went together to the hospital to visit Old Master Gu.

His condition remained the old ailment; the doctor advised avoiding further stimulation, otherwise, for someone of his age, it could more or less trigger heart problems.

As he pushed open the ward door, Gu Han's steps halted, and he instinctively grabbed Gu Mu Jin Chen's hand.

"It's fine, go in."

Gu Mu Jin Chen gave a reassuring squeeze and led him into the room.

"Aunt."

Gu Han called out.

The noblewoman massaging Old Master Gu's back had a slightly stiff background; she slowly rose, turning with a complex expression.

"Xiao Han is here."

She wiped her hands, seeming also embarrassed, sighed after a long while, and took a child from the nanny's hands behind her.

"Look, this is your little female cousin, cute, right?"

A one-year-old little girl dressed adorably lightened the solemn atmosphere of the ward; Gu Han nodded and smiled, "Cute."

"The aunt had a child but never told us."

Madam Shen sighed, shook her head, and said, "You know, I had a big fight with your grandfather years ago; if it weren't for this incident, I… wouldn't have come."

"I'm already considered elderly; after giving birth I continued recuperating."

"This child, I actually already told Xiao Yu to let you know."

Gu Han frowned.

"He never mentioned it."

"I also never imagined this child…" Madam Shen said, wiping her tears, "After all, it's our fault—this child was so well-behaved as a kid, but after getting lost… sigh, since we didn't keep him nearby, the fact that he's alive is already pretty good."

Gu Han knew what she was about to say, promptly interrupted her plea, polite but stern: "Aunt, he wants to hire a killer to murder me and my lover—this is no small matter."

"His early-life hardships may have shaped this personality, but I shouldn't have to pay for it."

Madam Shen was speechless, supported her head and sat down, ultimately saying nothing more.

The feigning-asleep Old Master Gu opened his eyes and said, "Child, you've suffered."

This was the first thing Old Master Gu had said to Gu Han since the incident; whenever he visited before, Old Master Gu had refused to communicate with Gu Han.

「No matter what, you're the one Grandfather watched grow up; Old Master, I really do care about you. 」

「I just feel… I owe your younger uncle, so I've been a bit partial to him. 」

Gu Mu Jin Chen glanced at Old Master, weighed his words for a few seconds, didn't say anything, just held Gu Han tightly.

Love is always feeling indebted.

But being partial and aware of it is rather rare.

Gu Han curled his lips, "I know."

He tucked the blanket for Old Master, "Rest well."

In a very calm tone, in a daze, Old Master thought he heard the voice of his eldest son, GuJunyuan.

It seems that since many years ago, the eldest son also suddenly shifted, from admiring his father to now being merely polite and simply filial.

When leaving the hospital, Gu Han's expression became much more relieved.

These days, Old Master didn't want to see him; in fact, he himself was also a bit avoidant.

But it seems, none of it matters anymore.

Not long after leaving the hospital, Gu Han received the news that Gu Muhjin and Shen Yanyu had already been imprisoned.

Returning to Zhuang Yuan, only then did he learn that after GuJunyuan confirmed Old Master was fine, he went to New Zealand again; as the name suggests, to relax his mind. Gu Han knew Dad had gone to bravely pursue love.

It seems everything has settled.

He walked and walked, then suddenly turned and flung himself into Gu Mu Jin Chen's arms.

Gu Mu Jin Chen caught him precisely and kissed the corner of his lips.

"I have no strength left; you need to carry me inside."

Gu Han pointed to the Main Gate of the main residence, only tens of meters away.

"Good."

Gu Mu Jin Chen was very indulgent, carrying him back while responding to Gu Han's words one after another.

"You must not tell anyone outside; I still want to save face."

"Okay, I won't let Xiao Han's domineering CEO demeanor suffer even a bit."

"I'm tired of the chef's menu; you come cook at noon… but I can help you."

"Good."

"I need to rest for a while; you also have to accompany me."

"Good."

"... I love you."

"I know."
