Chapter 65: Be Restrained!
Gu Ding’s abilities were remarkable, as evidenced by the subordinates he had developed. The owners of those branch stores were all capable individuals. Even if Gu Yu temporarily wanted to become the capital’s richest man, he wouldn’t have to worry about a lack of manpower at this point. This gave Gu Yu a deeper understanding of Gu Ding’s excellence, making him think that Gu Ding could indeed become his right-hand man and his best assistant in the business world. However, Gu Yu was not someone who acted impulsively; he wouldn’t feel at ease simply relying on past relationships. In front of Gu Ding, Gu Yu directly produced poison and prepared to have him swallow it. If Gu Ding showed any sign of betrayal, death would be his only way out. Faced with the poison Gu Yu presented, Gu Ding hesitated for a few seconds, then without further delay, he directly swallowed the poison to show his loyalty. Gu Yu was very satisfied with this. If Gu Ding had swallowed the poison without hesitation, Gu Yu would have been suspicious, thinking Gu Ding might have some schemes and tricks up his sleeve, wondering why he would carelessly entrust his life to someone else. This was different from the way most people thought. As the old saying goes, strange things happen for a reason. Therefore, Gu Ding’s reaction was just right, preventing Gu Yu from suspecting him too much while also proving his loyalty. As for other matters, they would be dealt with later! Gu Yu had always treated his own people very well… To become the capital’s richest man, one naturally had to start with the most profitable businesses to quickly amass funds for further development. Although Gu Yu didn’t need to go through such trouble, if he were to take out the gold and silver treasures from his space, he would already be the richest person in the capital, with the exception of Bai Qian. However, Gu Yu didn’t want to touch his own silver. He preferred to seize the wealth of others to strengthen his own influence, achieving a snowball effect and increasing his assets. That way, it would be more satisfying! Thinking this, Gu Yu’s lips curved slightly upwards, and he continued to sketch and write on paper with his charcoal pencil, preparing to outline all his future plans. Then, he could hand them over to Gu Ding, letting this capable assistant help him complete these tasks. Meanwhile, Gu Yu would take this time to stay by Gu Mengyao’s side and fulfill his role as a watchful husband, protecting the pregnant Gu Mengyao from any harm. Protection, he was a professional! “A’yu, I’m really fine. If you put me into your space again without a word, I’ll get angry with you!” One day, after Gu Mengyao was released from the space, she immediately said to Gu Yu with a helpless expression, not knowing how to assure her little husband that there was no danger at all!!! She had just casually mentioned wanting to go boating, and Gu Yu immediately appeared without a sound, directly putting Gu Mengyao into his space, and only releasing her after they returned to the house. Fortunately, no one else was around, otherwise, Gu Yu’s space secret would have been exposed! This made Gu Mengyao increasingly angry, feeling that Gu Yu was making a mountain out of a molehill and being overly concerned! Even though she was pregnant, her martial arts skills were still top-notch! Forget boating; even if several killers came now, Gu Mengyao could take them all on, sending them directly to see Yama. If she were a delicate young lady who was strictly protected, it would be a normal thing. But she was a female general of Linfeng Kingdom… She was not delicate at all; in fact, she was fierce! “Mengyao, you need to be careful now. Pregnant women are very fragile, so I won’t let you take risks.” “Is boating considered taking risks?” “Of course. It’s possible to capsize accidentally. If there are any dirty things in the water, it’s even worse… Besides these, the weather is getting cooler, and falling into the water could lead to a cold, which would be very detrimental to your health. Also…” After hearing Gu Mengyao’s words, Gu Yu immediately began to explain with a solemn expression. Once he started, it was endless. This made Gu Mengyao find it both frustrating and amusing. She didn’t let Gu Yu continue speaking; instead, she forcefully grabbed Gu Yu’s collar and sealed his lips with hers, preventing him from saying anything further. This sudden action caught Gu Yu off guard. However, he didn’t refuse the kiss; instead, he felt an urge to deepen it. It should be known that after Gu Mengyao became pregnant, Gu Yu had been living a celibate and ascetic life. This was a great test of willpower for a man who had just tasted intimacy. Although he could go to brothels or take concubines to satisfy his desires, Gu Yu, being someone who had transmigrated from modern times, insisted on the rule of monogamy and did not want to become a philandering scumbag who chased after women like a carrot. This was because his little wife would be very sad if he did. Anyway, it was just a momentary desire, and Gu Yu didn’t pay much attention to it. It was only aroused by Gu Mengyao’s kiss, making him unable to help himself for a moment. But then he suddenly remembered that Gu Mengyao was newly pregnant and strenuous activity was not advisable… If it stirred up her desires as well, it would be disastrous. So, thinking of this, Gu Yu quickly suppressed his desire, stepped back a few paces, and became flustered like a young maiden being molested by a local tyrant. This caught Gu Mengyao off guard. When she looked at Gu Yu with rosy cheeks, she looked like a dewy little flower swaying in the breeze, drawing all his attention. “Mengyao, you need to be restrained now!” “Hmph, restrained, restrained, you only know restraint. I refuse!” Then, upon hearing Gu Yu’s words, it seemed like a certain word had hit a sore spot, causing Gu Mengyao’s eyes to narrow slightly, and her entire demeanor instantly transformed. If Gu Mengyao had been a delicate little flower just moments ago, she was now a majestic queen flower. She easily threw Gu Yu onto the bed, then with a triumphant smile, Gu Mengyao completely undressed Gu Yu. “Mengyao, stop, you can’t do this!” “Stop? How can I stop at a time like this!” Gu Yu, who had been stripped naked, covered his chest with his hands and repeatedly tried to persuade her, but Gu Mengyao seemed completely indifferent. She stood by the bed and began to undress herself. Today, she was determined to “handle” her little husband. It was irritating that he was always hovering around, forbidding her from doing anything. So, she would make him bear her ‘wrath’ now! She would definitely burn Gu Yu until he lost consciousness, making him unable to get out of bed. That way, he wouldn’t be able to control her anymore! Thinking this, Gu Mengyao’s smile grew brighter, and her eyes sparkled even more. When the last piece of clothing fell to the ground, she pounced on Gu Yu on the bed.
