His cold voice sounded like it came from the mouth of an Asura from Hell. It sent chills down everyone's spines.
"Mr. President, please be rational. We've already gone to look for him. Please … don't be so agitated, okay?"
Gu Jingming tightened his grip on her neck. "You're my woman. You should only listen to my orders. Let me out."
"But I'm doing this for your own good, Mr. President. Even if you kill me, I won't let you out. If anything happens to you outside, the citizens of Country C will lose a good president. We … we'll also lose a good leader. You can't go!" Linda screamed with all her might. Although there were already marks on her neck, she still refused to let go of Gu Jingming.
Gu Jingming's eyes were cold. He looked at her and said, "Let me go. I've said it before."
"No, we won't let him go. We won't let him go." Linda ordered the people outside. "Listen up. Even if I die, you can't let Mr. President out."
"Alright, alright. Then, you can die first." Gu Jingming's eyes turned cold. No one present had ever seen Gu Jingming act like this.
He immediately tightened his grip on Linda's neck. Linda lost consciousness. Gu Jingming didn't kill her, but he choked her until she fainted.
Then, he pulled the trigger forcefully. The President's bodyguard who was walking towards him was shot in the leg.
He said, "No one can stop me. Those who stand in my way will only die."
"Mr. President!" The bodyguard was still shouting. However, Gu Jingming just shot him once and knocked him down. Then, he walked out step by step.
Outside, the sky above Country B was raining heavily. The dark clouds were heavy. The already low pressure in the Capital turned it into a battlefield of Asura.
Outside the Glass Palace, police sirens were blaring. The residents living around the Glass Palace looked outside anxiously. They knew that something big had happened in Country C. They wanted to see what was going on because they were close to the water. However, it involved many important matters of the country and it wasn't something that ordinary people could pry into. Hence, they could only watch as the troops that they had never seen before rolled past them. They couldn't get any information, but they vaguely knew that something big was going to happen.
Naturally, none of them could imagine it. This was indeed a big matter. Because Mr. President had escaped and disappeared. At this critical moment, he had given up his empire for the sake of a beauty. He had gone to save his wife and child alone, leaving behind the ever-changing politics of Country C.
However, no one in the Glass Palace dared to release the news. They continued to lock up the Glass Palace.
Only Gu Jingze was in his office, standing outside the transparent glass window, looking at the tall building that towered into the depths of the dark clouds. His eyes were hazy.
"Sir, now that Mr. President has left the Glass Palace, we don't know where he is going. What should we do now?"
Gu Jingze said. "Since he has left, let him be. To catch bandits, first catch the ringleader. There must be a source. Once we find the source, everything else will be clear."
"But, Sir, it's a mess outside. Even the personal guards of the Gu Family are in turmoil." Qin Hao looked worried as well. He didn't know what to do.
At this moment, there was another commotion outside. The personal guards below were shouting anxiously. They wanted Gu Jingze to step in personally. They couldn't take this injustice. They couldn't bear to hear the rich and the common people speak ill of the Gu Family. It wasn't a big deal at first, but Gu Jingze didn't make a move this time. Many people were bitterly disappointed. They wondered how the Gu Family could allow others to bully them without doing anything. What was the current head of the Gu Family doing? Was Old Master Gu really dying? Why wasn't anyone coming to uphold justice for them?
This had happened several times in the past few days, but still, no one came to ask about it. The personal guards of the Gu Family felt a little dispirited. They felt like they had no way forward.
Of course, this shouldn't have happened. However, the second and third families were all taking the opportunity to cause trouble. They wanted to use this rare opportunity to shake Gu Jingze's position as the head of the family.
So they secretly made a lot of moves, preparing to throw the personal guards into chaos.
"We ask the head of the family to seek justice for us."
"The head of the family wants to strengthen our position."
"That's right. What are they doing? Disappearing when something happens?"
But at this moment.
Suddenly, a spear pierced through the sky.
The personal guard standing at the front suddenly felt his heart turn red.
Blood gushed out from his forehead, all the way to the forehead of the personal guard below.
Following the sound of the spear, the surrounding people fell silent. In the dead silence, a man slowly walked out of the dark rain. His steps were steady, and his back was hazy.
The lightning struck his back, and his body was elongated by the cold light of the lightning.
In the cold night, he was like a lonely star, appearing faintly in the night sky. His shadow swayed behind him. His monotonous expression, in the middle of the night, seemed even colder.
It was Gu Jingze.
The gun in his hand was still warm. The bullet that had just been fired from his gun was now germinating in another person's head.
Everyone looked at Gu Jingze. For a moment, he stood there alone. There was no one around him, but his expression was like that of an army with thousands of men and horses. His aura was enormous.
The faint loneliness made him seem even more arrogant, like a god, inviolable.
"Everyone can see it. This is the dignity of the Gu Family. You want an explanation, right? This is the explanation. You want the head of the family to answer, right? This is the answer! "
Everyone's gaze was focused on his proud and aloof figure, listening to his tough and cold words.
"The Gu Family doesn't need a personal guard who will question the head of the family, and we don't need a personal guard who blindly listens to others. Now, at this moment, I have recorded the names of every personal guard here. You can go and receive your punishment!"
Everyone felt a chill run down their spines. In the next moment, many personal guards had already surrounded the person in the middle.
"Head of the family, we were wrong …"
"Mr. Gu, please spare our lives …"
Gu Jingze said, "I will not be lenient to my own people, and I will not be lenient to outsiders. Whoever dares to violate the dignity of the Gu Family, I will use the dignity of the Gu Family to send them to hell first. It is the same for outsiders, and it is the same for all of you!"
The guard didn't dare to make another sound. Gu Jingze just stood there. At that moment, Qin Hao hurriedly walked over from behind. He looked at Gu Jingze but didn't say anything. After Gu Jingze came down, he quietly said, "Sir, Madam is missing."
