Beautiful Wife And Genius Son-Chapter 11
Chapter 11
Translated by trungtnguyen123
Yue Gu Zai drove to the Da Mansion.
At the Da Mansion, Yue Gu Zai barged into the living room.
'Mr Yue, mistress is in the bathroom,' Chu Bai said. 'Please take a seat.'
Yue Gu Zai strode to the bathroom and kicked the door down.
Da Tu Li lowered her body under the bubble bath.
'Mistress,' Chu Bai said.
'You can leave,' Da Tu Li said.
'Yes mistress,' Chu Bai said.
After the butler left, Da Tu Li stood in front of Yue Gu Zai. Her naked body didn't affect Yue Gu Zai.
'I knew you would come,' Da Tu Li said.
'Give me the antidote,' Yue Gu Zai said.
'You're hateful,' Da Tu Li said. 'You have a beauty in front of you, but you don't know how to sweet talk. Many men scheme to crawl on my bed yet you don't even look my way. But I love your coldness.'
'Antidote,' Yue Gu Zai said.
'If you want the antidote then you need to pry it out of my mouth,' Da Tu Li said.
Yue Gu Zai twisted Da Tu Li's arm.
'How aggressive,' Da Tu Li said. 'There's no rush.'
'You know you don't have much time left,' Yue Gu Zai said. 'Without an antidote then the Da business will fall into your uncle's hands.'
Da Tu Li finally noticed her hand turned a black shade.
'MF Bai Yu Tian!' Da Tu Li cursed.
Da Tu Li gritted her teeth, dressed and grabbed the antidote from her room.
Yue Gu Zai exchanged antidotes with Da Tu Li. He didn't doubt it was the real antidote, because she was someone who kept her promises.
'Your little maid is not bad,' Da Tu Li said. 'I want to invite her here as a guest.'
Yue Gu Zai narrowed his eyes and his complexion darkened.
'I'm only warning you once,' Yue Gu Zai said. 'Don't lay a finger on her.'
While Da Tu Li was surprised to see Yue Gu Zai angry, he had left her home.
'Mistress, you have a phone call,' Chu Bai said. 'It's Da Fu Li.'
'What does he want?' Da Tu Li asked.
'He lost money at Hong's Casino in Las Vegas,' Chu Bai said. 'They're detaining him.'
Da Tu Li laughed coldly. 'The Hong family isn't someone he should offend. I'll take the call.'
Da Tu Li accepted the phone from Chu Bai. On the other end she heard her brother's pathetic cry.
'Big sister!' Da Fu Li pleaded. 'Save me!'
'Hello Miss Da,' Mr Hong said. 'You and your little brother must have a close relationship. He asked me to call you first before calling his father. I can see why a young woman like you is in charge of the Da business.'
'Mr Hong, why don't you cut to the chase,' Da Fu Li said. 'Considering the relations between the Da family and your family, we can negotiate a deal to satisfy you.'
'Ok, I want the Da's district in Tai,' Mr Hong said.
'Mr Hong, you should at least let me make enough to feed myself,' Da Tu Li said.
Da Tu Li thought Mr Hong was a greedy bastard. Did he want her to starve to death?
'Miss Da, you're too modest,' Mr Hong said. 'Everyone knows excluding Shu Tang Jue and Yue Gu Zai's businesses, the Da business owns one third of the black market.'
'Are you saying there's no room for negotiation?' Da Tu Li asked. 'It's not that I can't save the little shit, but everyone knows his father and I don't get along.'
'I'm not worried I'll make a lost,' Mr Hong said. 'His father wouldn't let his only son die easily. I don't mind giving his father a call. But do you want to waste years of building your close relationship with your little brother?' 𝑓𝓇𝑒𝑒𝚠e𝘣𝓷𝘰ѵe𝑙.com
Da Tu Li thought Mr Hong was an old fox.
'Ok, I'll compromise,' Da Tu Li said. 'You can have one third of the Da district in Tai.'
'Good, Miss Da, you can send someone to pick up your little brother,' Mr Hong said.
Da Tu Li hung up and smashed the phone on the floor.
'Mistress, don't be upset,' Chu Bai said.
'Don't let my uncle find out about this,' Da Tu Li said.
'Yes, mistress,' Chu Bai said.
A few days later at the main house, Zhen Zhen got to know Louis while Yue Gu Zai was busy working around Florence.
Zhen Zhen peeled an apple for Louis. She thought he was an eccentric man like teacher.
'Are you thinking about Yue Gu Zai?' Louis asked.
Zhen Zhen blushed. 'Who's thinking about that toxic man?'
'Toxic?' Louis teased.
Zhen Zhen thought she said too much. 'I mean...'
'Gu Zai wasn't like this when he was a child,' Louis said.
Zhen Zhen was curious to hear what Yue Gu Zai was like as a child.
'What was he like as a child?' Zhen Zhen asked.
'Energetic, mischievous and adorable,' Louis said.
'What?' Zhen Zhen asked. 'Adorable?'
Zhen Zhen thought no matter how she looked at Yue Gu Zai's face, she couldn't see anything adorable about him.
'He only changed after he took over Ni Sheng,' Louis said. 'Honestly teacher and I had no intentions of letting him take over Ni Sheng. We only want him to live a happy life. He didn't want to take over Ni Sheng either. But he's been stubborn since he was a child.'
'If he doesn't want to be in charge of Ni Sheng then why did he accept the head position?' Zhen Zhen asked.
Louis smiled a bitter sweet smile. 'His mum. His mum loves the homes in the districts Ni Sheng owns. His way of protecting places his mum loves is by taking charge of Ni Sheng.'
'His mum must be incredibly gentle and beautiful,' Zhen Zhen said.
Louis laughed uncontrollably for a long time.
'Perhaps other people don't think Xiao Ling is gentle and beautiful,' Louis said. 'Yes, she's petty, unreasonable and a reckless troublemaker. But in my heart she's the most beautiful person.'
Zhen Zhen thought there was loneliness in the way Louis was smiling.
'Where is she living?' Zhen Zhen asked.
'Gu Zai said that she's living a happy life,' Louis said. 'That's enough for me.'
Zhen Zhen realised Louis loved Yue Gu Zai's mum. She didn't understand why Louis didn't want to live with someone he loved. Why did Louis still love someone who left him a long time ago and was content as long as Yue Gu Zai's mum was happy. She thought love was too complicated.
'Miss Zhen Zhen, I can see Gu Zai cares about you,' Louis said. 'Help me take good care of him.'
'It's not like that... he... it's not what you're thinking...' Zhen Zhen said.
Zhen Zhen didn't think Yue Gu Zai cared about her. He didn't care about her opinion and expected her to follow his lead. Neither of them knew they conceived Zhen Wu together for years. Even if Yue Gu Zai cared about her, it was because they have a son together.
Zhen Zhen silently reasoned why Yue Gu Zai didn't care about her for a while. When she raised her head, Louis was sleeping. She sighed and decided if she couldn't explain properly why Yue Gu Zai didn't care about her then she should at least let Louis have a good sleep. She covered Louis' body with the bedsheet and left Louis' room.
