Chapter 754: An Offer You Can
He didn’t discuss the specifics in QQ.
Gu Dingwen recalled as he spoke:
“He requested a meeting and said he would explain everything in detail then.”
After a pause, he added:
“I remember it was around April last year. I thought we’d meet soon, but for over two months afterward, he never contacted me again.”
Could he be afraid of leaving evidence? Yu Dazhang speculated internally.
In his view, the other party had no need to meet Gu Dingwen at all—clearing the plan over QQ would’ve been enough.
Unless…
The other party feared Gu Dingwen would refuse.
Meeting had its advantages: face-to-face negotiation of interests, no Liuxia evidence or leverage.
No.
Yu Dazhang quickly dismissed this hypothesis.
Not meeting was far safer.
Why would the other party leave such a glaring flaw?
If the man once called “Boss” had never met Gu Dingwen, Yu Dazhang truly wouldn’t know how to find him now.
This was, so far, the only opening the other party had left.
As for why, after requesting a meeting, the other party failed to contact Gu Dingwen for over two months, Yu Dazhang already had his answer.
The “Boss” had used that time to avenge Gu Dingwen.
The meeting was proposed in April last year; the following month, in May, Yan Yuting’s entire family of seven died in a foreign travel accident.
Then, in June, Yan Yuting’s sister-in-law’s family died of food poisoning.
What were the odds? Clearly, both deaths were deliberate.
“Until early July last year, he contacted me on QQ and set a meeting for one week later.”
Seeing Yu Dazhang didn’t ask a question, Gu Dingwen continued:
“I chose a dockside restaurant in Sydney Harbour—it had a good atmosphere, low foot traffic, perfect for a private talk.”
He recalled the scene:
“He was a polite middle-aged man, with neatly combed short hair, appearing refined, yet his speech and manner radiated strictness and seriousness.”
“First, he told me about surrogacy, outlining the profits and operational procedures.”
“He also said he would cover all startup funds.”
Gu Dingwen shook his head firmly:
“I refused right away. As a doctor, I knew surrogacy was illegal in China—I wouldn’t do anything that broke the law.”
“But then he offered me a condition I couldn’t refuse…”
Here he fell silent, as if unsure how to phrase what came next.
Yu Dazhang didn’t rush—he sat quietly across from him, waiting.
After a long while, Gu Dingwen returned from his memories, took a deep breath, and spoke slowly:
“His exact words were…”
“The law cannot deliver justice for you—but I can. Evil will be punished.”
His voice was soft, yet resolute:
“Then he showed me videos of those two families moments before they died—I watched them on his phone. Afterward, he deleted the videos right before my eyes.”
“In that moment, I wavered.”
Gu Dingwen’s voice grew suddenly somber:
“Not for any other reason—only for the satisfaction of that moment.”
When he spoke those final words, the gentleness once in his eyes vanished completely, leaving only an indescribable coldness.
