Jin Rui hurriedly stepped forward and said, “Miss Lu, you haven’t treated my son with acupuncture yet.”

“I indeed cannot treat him. Mr. Jin, you should find someone more capable,” Lu Miao replied without any hesitation.

Even with Fu Jingshen standing nearby, Jin Rui couldn’t maintain his composure any longer. He gritted his teeth and said, “Miss Lu, you accepted my money, but now you’re refusing to treat my son. It’s unacceptable to just leave like this.”

“What? Are you trying to forcefully keep someone here?” a familiar voice came from outside the door.

Gu Ziheng’s eyes instantly lit up. “Second brother!”

His second brother had arrived in the city earlier in the morning. As soon as he learned that Lu Miao had been taken away, he immediately informed him. Finally, he had arrived.

Lu Miao’s lips twitched, and she raised her hand to support her forehead. She couldn’t believe that so many people had come for such a trivial matter. Did someone call the whole cavalry to the rescue?

Gu Shiyan, elegant and noble, appeared at the doorway.

Jin Rui was completely panicked now. Who exactly was this Lu Miao? Why would even Gu Shiyan, the Grim Reaper himself, personally come? This guy was known for his ruthless and aggressive methods, and since his health problems arose, he had become even more unpredictable.

Perhaps fearing his own death and wanting to eliminate obstacles for the future of the Gu family, as far as Jin Rui knew, in just over a month, Gu Shiyan had dealt with anyone who had any conflicts or hindered the interests of the Gu family, using his thunderous methods. He acquired what could be bought and bankrupted and liquidated what couldn’t be. Even those who didn’t currently have conflicts with the Gu family but posed a potential threat in the future were dealt with and reprimanded by him.

He acted decisively and ruthlessly, showing no mercy.

His attacks were decisive and ruthless, showing no mercy at all.

Then he planned ahead, integrating the acquired companies and resources and inviting several influential families with connections to the Gu family to invest and manage together.

With these actions, even if he really died, no one would dare to touch the Gu family. As long as the future successor of the Gu family wasn’t useless and the company continued to operate normally, the colossal Gu Corporation would have no problems for the next twenty years. And by that time, the successor of the Gu family would have grown up, and no one would dare to touch the Gu family at that point.

Such calculation, such methods, such courage—no one could compare!

If they had provoked Fu Jingshen, he had the backing of the Su and Jiang families to protect him, and Fu Jingshen would also have to consider the elder of the Fu family and couldn’t go too far.

But if they provoked Gu Shiyan, this lunatic was different. He had no inhibitions and would truly go all out!

If it really came to that point, even if God himself intervened, he wouldn’t be able to save him.

Jin Rui nervously stammered, “Mr.. Mr Gu, why have you also come? Please have a seat.”

“I came to listen and find out who took your money but didn’t do the job,” Gu Shiyan said nonchalantly.

Jin Rui wiped the cold sweat off his forehead and nervously recounted what had happened earlier.

Gu Ziheng struggled to hold onto the stone and pulled Lu Miao to sit on the nearby sofa, enjoying the show.

The stone didn’t look big, but it was quite heavy. If it weren’t for the fact that it was intended for Lu Miao, Gu Ziheng would have picked it up and thrown it at Fu Jingshen.

Looking around, he regretted not seeing any melon seeds. He had no choice but to put down the stone, pick up a fruit knife, and slice an apple into small pieces, placing them on a plate and pushing it in front of Lu Miao.

Then he took an orange and started peeling it.

Fu Jingshen, seeing this, also leaned over and grabbed a piece of apple, stuffing it into his own mouth. He sat there eagerly, watching the show.

“Crunch, crunch” the sound of biting into the apple suddenly echoed in the study.

The study instantly fell silent.

“You guys continue, you guys continue,” Fu Jingshen waved his hand, continuing to “crunch, crunch” on the apple.

Gu Ziheng glared at him, reached over, took the plate of apples, and placed it in front of Lu Miao.

How thick-skinned could this Fu guy be? This apple was specially peeled for Second Sister-in-law.

While they were still immaturely fighting over the apple, Jin Rui’s legs were shaking, and he could barely stand.

Gu Shiyan listened attentively, nodded, and casually pointed his finger toward

Gu Ziheng, saying, “You mentioned that stone?”

“Yes, that’s the one,” Jin Rui hurriedly explained. That stone was worth billions, and his heart was still bleeding from it.

Gu Shiyan said, “So, Mr. Jin, you kidnapped someone and offered a mere stone as an apology. I’m afraid that won’t be sufficient.”

“No, Mr Gu, that’s not just an ordinary stone,” Jin Rui quickly clarified.

Gu Shiyan’s eyelids lifted, and he looked at him with pale eyes. “Are you suspecting that there’s something wrong with my eyes?”

“No… no, I wouldn’t dare. It’s just that the stone…”

“That stone is just an ordinary stone,” Gu Shiyan interrupted him directly. “Mr. Jin seems to have poor eyesight. Take a good look again and see what it really is. ”

Jin Rui felt like he was going to spew out blood.

This… this was blatant deception!!!

Seeing Gu Shiyan acting as if a stone was just a stone, Jin Rui could only grit his teeth and nod, enduring the pain in his heart.

“You’re right, Second Young Master. It was my old, blurry eyes that made a mistake.”

“In that case, if you want to apologize, shouldn’t you show some sincerity?” Gu Shiyan said without hesitation, looking around his study and casually pointing to a blue-and-white porcelain vase.

“I think that one is nice. It would be suitable to take it back and use it for flower arrangement.”

Upon hearing this, Jin Rui wished he could faint immediately.

That was genuine Yuan blue and white porcelain!

It was purchased for 120 million from an auction house and given to him by the Song family two years ago during the lockdown.

That was the price two years ago, and now it would be even more expensive if it were to be auctioned again.

And they were saying to use it for flower arrangement? Even if she arranged flowers for a lifetime, she wouldn’t have a vase as valuable as this.

Were they a bunch of robbers? They must be!

Each one more ruthless than the other.

They were taking advantage of him so shamelessly!

These two items combined were worth over 200 million. Was this their idea of an apology? They were robbing him without a mask.

Jin Rui’s intestines were in Imots now. He wished he could go back in time two hours and absolutely prevent anyone from going to find Lu Miao!

“What’s wrong? Don’t want to do it?” Gu Shiyan looked at him expressionlessly.

Jin Rui forced back the urge to vomit blood and tearfully replied, “No… no, I will.”

Gu Shiyan stood up and walked directly to Lu Miao, his expression softening on his face. He spoke in a gentle tone, “You’ve been recording all day and must be tired. Let’s go, I’ll take you to eat.”

Seeing that gentle look, Jin Rui almost thought that the Gu Shiyan in front of him was fake.

Lu Miao nodded and stood up, walking with him towards the exit.

Gu Ziheng simply picked up the stone and stuffed it into Fu Jingshen’s hand. Then, not forgetting to take the blue-and -white porcelain vase from the display cabinet, he walked away.

Jin Rui could only watch helplessly as these bunch of robbers openly and brazenly took things and left. He didn’t dare mention anything about getting treatment for Jin Chen anymore.

He was afraid that if he brought it up again, the entire house would be emptied!
