The Whole Internet is Shipping Me with My Ex-Boyfriend-Chapter 233 - 2: Finally Meeting Chi Yu

Dao An held back repeatedly, not daring to speak further.

Wen Fei was very satisfied with Gu Yuan’s performance. She initially just wanted to see to what extent Gu Yuan would go for that man, and the result exceeded her expectations.

However, once they boarded the cruise ship, Wen Fei finally understood why Gu Yuan had been so obedient and submissive along the way...

"Gu Yuan, how dare you let them tie me up!!!"

Wen Fei’s voice was sharp with uncontrollable anger. Her elegant and exquisite face was contorted with fury, becoming terrifying.

Gu Yuan’s expression was as cold as ice. Facing Wen Fei’s rage, she only responded in an emotionless voice: "Tie her tighter."

"Yes, President Gu."

The bodyguards swiftly tied up Wen Fei’s hands and feet, moving with speedy and definite actions.

To prevent Wen Fei from shouting, Gu Yuan personally stuck tape over Wen Fei’s mouth.

During the taping, Wen Fei completely lost her usual elegant demeanor, strands of hair falling across her forehead in a disheveled state: "Gu Yuan, how dare you treat me like this!! How dare you! I am your mother!!"

"When you said you were my mother, did you ever treat me as your daughter?" Gu Yuan calmly asked her.

Wen Fei trembled with rage, trying to say something more, but Gu Yuan had already sealed her mouth with the tape.

The tape was wide and very adhesive.

Sitting firmly on Wen Fei’s mouth, it blocked her noisy chatter.

Gu Yuan slowly stood up, clapped her hands, and looked down at Wen Fei: "Have you heard ’all is fair in war’? I held back all the way to get you onto this cruise ship obediently, Mom, you really underestimated me."

"Mmm mmm... mmm mmm..." At this moment, Wen Fei could only let out muffled sounds.

"President Gu."

Dao An handed over a metal briefcase, "The item has arrived."

Gu Yuan: "Open it."

Dao An opened the metal briefcase, revealing a silver gun resting in the recessed slot.

Gu Yuan picked up the gun, loaded it, placed her finger on the trigger, and aimed in a direction over the sea.

Dao An was taken aback and quickly said, "President Gu, this gun is for emergencies, please think twice before using it unless absolutely necessary."

Gu Yuan glanced at Dao An sideways, raised an eyebrow, and put away the gun: "I’m just anxious, not irrational."

Only then did Dao An breathe a sigh of relief.

Dao An had known that President Gu could use a gun ever since joining her side.

Gu Yuan had experienced many things since childhood. Everyone in the Gu Family was covetous, full of wolves, tigers, and leopards, with danger lurking everywhere. To protect herself, President Gu learned the most direct way to take a life: marksmanship.

But so far, President Gu had never used a gun.

Because once that step was taken, it would be a descent into an abyss.

...

At this moment, a giant cruise ship drifted on the sea under the star-studded night.

Above the sky were homeless seagulls, unable to find their way back to the shore.

Moonlight from afar reflected on the deck, and Gu Yuan stood there with a stern expression.

She checked her wristwatch, realizing there were only ten minutes left before she could see Chi Yu.

At this time, Fang Yumin’s call came through, and Gu Yuan answered without expression: "Gu Yuan speaking."

"Good evening, Miss Gu." Fang Yumin’s voice came through the receiver, with a distinctly cheerful smile.

"Good evening, Mr. Fang." Gu Yuan returned the greeting in kind.

Fang Yumin asked, "I heard you brought Wen Fei back just to persuade me?"

Gu Yuan chuckled lightly: "That’s the plan. After all, you two were once lovers, and she is also my mother."

"Then you’ve got it all wrong." Fang Yumin’s tone was dismissive: "You should have known since back then, Wen Fei meant nothing to me."

"Even if she meant nothing, can’t old lovers reunite?"

Fang Yumin fell silent.

Gu Yuan wasn’t sure if she could make the right gamble, she might be the most unfilial daughter, having kidnapped her own mother to threaten Fang Yumin.

As long as it was a credible threat, it didn’t count as a real threat.

She had merely pinpointed Fang Yumin’s weakness precisely.

Hopefully that’s the case.

Ten minutes later—

Gu Yuan met Chi Yu again on another giant cruise ship.

A crowd of people stood on the opposite deck. Gu Yuan, wearing a black trench coat, stood at the forefront of the group. The cries of seagulls echoed above the night sky, and in the distance, a faint mist stirred the sea as the cruise ship sailed by.

The mist dissipated as the sea breeze intensified.

The negotiation table was temporarily set up on the deck.

Gu Yuan sat on one side, and Fang Yumin on the other.

This was the first time in two years that Gu Yuan had seen Fang Yumin again. You could say the two years of prison life hadn’t changed him at all. His looks were decent, matching Wen Fei’s aesthetic tastes.

But his character was sheer hell.

"Miss Gu only brought two people with her, it seems she trusts me a lot." Fang Yumin pushed a cup of tea towards her: "Mingqian Longjing, Miss Gu, please have some tea."

Gu Yuan didn’t even glance at the tea, already cooled by the sea breeze, and directly said: "I want to see Chi Yu."

"Miss Gu, aren’t you being too hasty? You haven’t even had the tea." Fang Yumin pouted, unimpressed.

The crowd of black-clad people were all Fang Yumin’s men. In fact, aside from Gu Yuan and her two companions, everyone else on this cruise ship was under Fang Yumin.

This couldn’t have been accomplished by Fang Yumin alone just after being released from prison.

The person behind him was...

"Clap, clap, clap—"

The applause came from behind Fang Yumin.

Gu Yuan looked up and saw Wen Bo stepping out from behind Fang Yumin, the one who was supposed to be confined by the Gu Family and prevented from leaving—Wen Bo.

"My dear niece, I didn’t expect that you truly have a deep love for that pretty boy, and with such heartfelt sincerity, daring to board the ship with just two people to negotiate, you truly are something else."

As Wen Bo stepped forward, a bodyguard pulled out a chair for him, and Wen Bo sat down.

He exchanged a glance with Fang Yumin beside him, and both of them chuckled simultaneously.

Fang Yumin pushed a document in front of Gu Yuan: "The entanglement between Miss Gu and me naturally can’t be resolved with tit-for-tat, that’s too boring. Let’s get real. Take a look at the document, all my demands are there."

Gu Yuan opened it up.

With just a few glances, she saw densely packed ’terms,’ which appeared highly unreasonable, but at this moment, nothing seemed unreasonable in Gu Yuan’s eyes.

She agreed straightforwardly: "No problem, I can provide however much money you want."

"Miss Gu, so forthcoming!" Fang Yumin was exceedingly pleased.

Wen Bo had nothing to say, just sitting there with a quiet gaze.

"Sign it, Miss Gu." Fang Yumin indicated.

Gu Yuan stood up, glaring behind them: "I want to see Chi Yu first."

"Of course, no problem." Fang Yumin snapped his fingers: "Bring him up."

The few minutes of waiting were excruciating for Gu Yuan, every second felt like torture. When she saw Chi Yu being dragged up, her heart trembled, nearly making her lose her footing.

"Chi Yu..." her hoarse voice called out.
