Chapter 1257: Chapter 1261: He Must Never Let That Kind of Thing Happen!

But this time, when Gu Junzhu was poisoned, the first person Qiao Zui thought of was Yun Jue.

At that moment, he couldn’t care about anything else.

To hell with whether the old lady of the Yun Family would die.

If because Yun Jue came back to save his own uncle, and the old lady of the Yun Family committed suicide, others would only ridicule and despise her, not Yun Jue.

Thinking of those two old folks from the Yun Family made Qiao Zui’s teeth itch with irritation.

Unfortunately, they were Yun Jue’s own grandparents. He was in a bind and couldn’t do anything.

"Forget it, let’s not talk about that now," Gu Junzhu drew Ye Xingbei into his arms, his gaze sweeping over everyone’s faces, "Everyone has been up all night without sleep and must be exhausted. Those who are hungry go eat something; those who are not, go get some sleep immediately. Xiao Chi, take good care of the antidote and give it to Ah Jue when he arrives. Alright, everyone go to sleep. We can talk about anything else after a good rest."

Duan Yanbing looked at Gu Junzhu, hesitating to speak: "Fifth Brother, about my father’s affair..."

Gu Junzhu waved his hand, "As long as we brothers unite, nothing else is an issue. We’ll talk about your father’s affair after I’ve recovered."

It was just like with Yun Jue’s grandparents: another confused accounting of being afraid to smash the mouse for fear of breaking the precious vase.

His head still ached, and he was too lazy to think too much about it.

Duan Yanbing lowered his head, saying softly: "Fifth Brother, I swear, I will never let my father harm you a second time."

Gu Junzhu curved his lips into a slight smile and thumped him on the shoulder, "Your Fifth Brother isn’t so easily harmed by others. This time was just an accident. If there’s a next time, the one you should worry about is your dad!"

Duan Yanbing looked up at Gu Junzhu, his heart aching terribly.

That was precisely what he was most worried and sad about.

On one side was the most important person in his life, and on the other was his own biological father.

He did not want either party to be harmed.

If possible, he wished that they could coexist peacefully and become friends.

But the current situation was that they were mortal enemies, incompatible as fire and water.

If his father and Gu Junzhu were to fight to the death, no matter who won or lost, he would be the one in the most pain.

No.

He couldn’t let that happen!

He nodded firmly at Gu Junzhu, "Fifth Brother, I understand. Don’t worry, I promise, there won’t be a next time!"

Gu Junzhu patted his shoulder and left with Ye Xingbei.

Duan Yanbing watched their backs disappear, clenched his fists, and drove away from the Gu family estate to visit Yen Wenqing again.

Yen Wenqing was sitting on the couch, a cup in hand.

But this time, he wasn’t drinking tea, but alcohol.

Duan Yanbing strode in, and his first words were: "Fifth Brother has found the antidote."

Yen Wenqing raised his eyes to look at him, his gaze hazy, already showing signs of intoxication.

Duan Yanbing stepped forward, snatched the wine cup from his hand, and, along with the bottle on the table, threw them to the ground, shattering them.

Yen Wenqing stared at him for a while, then suddenly burst into laughter, "Good son! You’re the first one who dares to snatch my wine cup and smash my bottle, but I like this uniqueness. Well done, worthy of being my son, you are my son... my son..."

Duan Yanbing glared at him with bloodshot eyes, suddenly ripping open his clothes to reveal his chest.

A dagger slid from his wrist into the palm, his wrist turned, and he pointed the tip of the dagger at the position of his heart.

Yen Wenqing, as if someone had grasped his throat, stopped laughing abruptly. He stood up "swoosh" from his seat and rushed towards Duan Yanbing, "Son, what are you doing?"
