Chapter 1160: Chapter 1164: If One Could Live, No One Would Wish to Die

He hadn’t finished his words, but Gu Junzhu and Ye Xingbei both understood what he meant.

Only if Lou Jiayao died could Pang Xiangwen officially replace her.

Only then could the son and daughter Pang Xiangwen had with An Zhenglin blatantly live together with their father.

Lou Ning suspected that An Zhenglin had something to do with his mother’s death. Although there was no evidence, it was reasonable to think so.

Gu Junzhu said, “Too much time has passed, I’m afraid the evidence to accuse An Zhenglin of plotting against your mother is no longer available.”

“No longer available?” Lou Ning looked downcast, extremely disappointed.

The reason he signed the fifty-year contract so readily was not solely due to Ye Xingbei’s identity.

His main goal was still to take revenge on An Zhenglin and avenge his mother.

With his own abilities, he feared that he would have to watch An Zhenglin use his maternal grandparents’ inheritance to support Pang Xiangwen and their illegitimate children for his whole life.

Life long, he would watch An Zhenglin and Pang Xiangwen bask in love and glory, a family of four in perfect harmony.

Just thinking about An Zhenglin and Pang Xiangwen’s family of four happily thriving left him filled with a murderous rage.

He had impulsively wanted countless times to simply grab a knife and wipe out An Zhenglin’s entire family.

He was prepared to trade life for life, to make that beast An Zhenglin pay.

But perhaps because guilty consciences breed caution, An Zhenglin and Pang Xiangwen treasured their lives highly and always moved about with bodyguards, so he never had the chance to get close to them.

The reason he had willingly sunk so low, knowing full well that many patrons at Blue Moon Bar saw him as nothing more than a male escort, yet still stayed, was to earn more money.

Without money, one cannot make a move.

With money, there was a chance for revenge.

With money, even if he couldn’t get close to An Zhenglin himself, he could still afford to hire a hitman to kill An Zhenglin’s family.

With money, one could make the devil turn mills.

As long as he could make a lot of money, he would surely find someone willing to kill An Zhenglin and Pang Xiangwen for him.

But if it came to that, he would have to stake his own life.

Living is always preferable to dying, if one has a choice.

He wasn’t truly cornered yet, so he didn’t want to resort to that last step.

The appearance of Gu Junzhu and Ye Xingbei was like a ray of sunlight piercing through the darkness of a freezing, pitch-black dead end.

They offered him a choice he hadn’t dared to dream of.

As long as he signed a contract with Ye Xingbei’s studio, Gu Junzhu and Ye Xingbei were willing to fight for his vindication and revenge!

Just for that alone, not to mention a mere fifty-year contract, he was willing to do anything they asked.

Had Gu Junzhu and Ye Xingbei not appeared, perhaps one day, once he had accumulated enough money, he would have really hired a hitman.

And then, he would have lost his life.

What was a fifty-year contract in comparison?

He had researched the massive scale of Gu Group online, and he believed that dealing with An Zhenglin would be as easy as pie for Gu Junzhu and Ye Xingbei.

He initially thought that Gu Junzhu could help him discover the truth behind his mother’s death and make An Zhenglin pay with his life.

But now, hearing from Gu Junzhu that too much time had passed and that the evidence might no longer be found, he felt a profound sense of loss.

“Even though the evidence of An Zhenglin plotting against your mother might be hard to find due to the passage of time, I can ensure he receives the punishment he deserves,” Gu Junzhu said lazily, looking at him, “Suppose he really did kill your mother, you want him to pay with his life, to die in agony and despair, right?”

Lou Ning clenched his teeth and nodded: “Right!”

Gu Junzhu then asked, “Suppose your mother wasn’t killed by him, but he deceived her affection, and his being with your mother was only for her inheritance, with his true love being Pang Xiangwen. He wanted to bring Pang Xiangwen and those two illegitimate children home, so he cheated you out of your shares, framed and pushed you to the brink, seized all your savings and property, and drove you out of your home. You detest him to the bone and hope he dies in agony and despair, right?”

Lou Ning nodded firmly: “Right!”

“Isn’t that settled then?” Gu Junzhu’s lips curled slightly, “As long as you want him to die in agony and despair, regardless of whether he killed your mother or not, it’s not important whether we can find evidence of his guilt. As long as the end result is that we make him die in agony and despair, isn’t that good enough?”
