Transmigrated as the fake young master, I'll beat up the scumbags and b*tches-Chapter 341Vol. 1 - - Cooperation

"Second Uncle, I never thought you were the one. No wonder I could never find the mole that Shi Zhong planted in the Gu family."

Gu ZhaoChuan took a deep breath. Though the outcome surprised him, he understood—it was also an opportunity.

If he could work with this man now, then not only could he eliminate HuMing… he might even get rid of Shi Zhong as well!

The thought filled him with a renewed sense of confidence.

"Second Uncle, I don’t know what you’re really thinking, but my presence in the Gu family—was arranged by Shi Zhong. As for the whereabouts of my parents’ child, I truly have no idea."

Gu WeiYi’s eyes narrowed, a shadow of darkness flashing through them, quickly concealed.

If he hadn’t known the truth of the matter, he might’ve believed Gu ZhaoChuan.

After all, Gu ZhaoChuan was just a kid—and they'd lived together for so many years. It was only natural to have some emotional attachment.

But now, hearing these words from Gu ZhaoChuan’s mouth… the meaning was entirely different.

He had clearly made up his mind. He wanted HuMing erased from this world.

[Brother still held onto the hope that Gu ZhaoChuan would turn back. But judging by everything he’s done… he truly wants HuMing dead.]

Gu WeiYi had already reached his own conclusion.

He slowly lifted his head, eyes meeting Gu ZhaoChuan’s as he said—

"You do realize… your words hold no credibility right now."

"Second Uncle, I have no reason to lie to you about this. I’m guessing Shi Zhong must’ve gotten some dirt on you—that’s why you’ve been doing his bidding. Which is exactly why we should be working together."

Gu ZhaoChuan was desperate to break free from Shi Zhong’s control—and in this matter, Gu WeiYi was crucial.

Shi Zhong had deliberately placed them together to keep them in check.

But if Gu ZhaoChuan could turn Gu WeiYi to his side, he could start building his own power base in secret. And once that foundation was laid, they might finally have a chance to strike back against Shi Zhong.

Gu WeiYi’s gaze locked onto Gu ZhaoChuan. But even after hearing all that, he betrayed no emotion.

He rose slowly, setting down the photo frame in his hands.

"ZhaoChuan, you know… even if you weren’t Brother’s biological son, he still wouldn’t have given up on you. But many things that happened later were because of your actions. You leaked far too much to Shi Zhong—that’s why I ended up in this mess. So why, exactly, should I help you?"

Gu ZhaoChuan’s smile began to fade.

He understood what Gu WeiYi meant… but had no idea which specific incident he was referring to. After all, he had sold out plenty of intelligence on the Gu family.

"Second Uncle… are you saying I’m the reason you betrayed the Gu family?"

"You were the one who leaked QiuLing’s whereabouts, weren’t you?"

"Bai YongKang thought I was in that car, and tried to get rid of me. Unfortunately for him, Shi Zhong called me just in time to keep me away. Looking back now… that was when Shi Zhong really began laying his trap for me. And you—" Gu WeiYi’s voice turned cold, "—you were part of it."

Gu ZhaoChuan’s face shifted slightly. He knew—what the other man said was true.

And Gu WeiYi’s loyalty to his wife was unwavering. Even in her half-dead state, he had never considered giving up on her.

From the sound of it, their fragile alliance might’ve just crumbled for good.

He took a deep breath, mind racing. free𝑤ebnovel.com

If he could, he really would act against Gu WeiYi.

But this was the Gu family’s estate. And even one-on-one, he wasn’t certain he could win.

Is there really… no way out?

Gu ZhaoChuan furrowed his brow, a sense of hopelessness rising in his chest.

But just then, Gu WeiYi’s voice rang out again.

"ZhaoChuan, now that things have come this far—what exactly do you plan to do?

With your current ability, you’re in no position to go up against Shi Zhong. What makes you think you’re qualified for me to even consider joining you?"

That question lit a spark in Gu ZhaoChuan’s mind.
