Chapter 1016 - A Terrifying Calmness (1/2)

By the time Ling Sheng and Jun Shiyan got home…

Xu Xi greeted them. “Third Master, Ms. Ling, Ms. Nangong has already left. She said she has something to take care of. She asked Ms. Sheng Sheng to go home early after dinner.”

Ling Sheng felt a little strange. Hadn’t she said she had something to tell them? Why did she leave? “Did my mom say what it was?”

Xu Xi said honestly, “No.”

Jun Shiyan also found it a little strange. Logically speaking, this shouldn’t be the case. His mother-in-law did things differently from his father-in-law. She definitely wouldn’t do something like standing others up.

…

Huo Ci took a nine-hour flight. When he reached the capital, it was four in the morning. When he reached the Gu residence’s gate, it was five in the morning.

It was early spring weather, and the sky had just brightened a little. It was drizzling again, and there weren’t even old people doing morning exercises. The high-end residential area was strangely quiet. One could only hear a few dog barks occasionally.

Zuo Ming sat in the driver’s seat and looked at the man behind him, who had been maintaining the same expression and position for an entire hour and a half. In the end, he still could not help but ask, “Sixth Master, do you want me to go down and knock on the door?”

Huo Ci shot him a cold look, his tone so calm that it was a little weird and frightening. “No need.”

He would just wait right here for him to come out. If he alerted him, how could he still kill him?!

Zuo Ming nodded. He didn’t know how the Third Master had offended their Sixth Master again. He had never seen the Sixth Master look so scary. The air in the car was so thin that it was difficult to breathe.

Everyone thought that Sixth Master would become hot-headed when he was angry. That was because they had not really witnessed how the Sixth Master looked when he was angry. When the Sixth Master got furious, he was only a little angry. No one could truly anger him.

When he was really angry, he became calm. He was very calm, so calm that it was as though he was another person. However, it was extremely frightening. It was the terrifying kind of calmness and oppression before a storm. A person was the scariest when he wasn’t sad, happy, or angry.

Huo Ci looked at Zuo Ming. “Bring me that iron rod in the trunk.”

“Yes.” Zuo Ming’s heart skipped a beat. Could the Sixth Master be serious? Was he here to kill the Third Master?

If he wasn’t truly angry, he would definitely have knocked on the door and gone up to punish him personally. He wouldn’t be waiting here calmly. Exactly what had the Third Master done to make him so angry?

Jun Shiyan had a meeting in the morning. When he went out, it was seven in the morning. The moment the car left the gate, he heard a loud bang. He subconsciously dodged, only to see that the car window had already shattered. The immense force had even caused the car door to change shape.

An Yan, who was driving, was so startled that he turned around to look and saw Huo Ci through the shattered glass. The latter’s handsome face looked ferocious and frightening; he was also bearing a murderous air. He hurriedly opened the door and got out of the car.

Jun Shiyan’s eyes darkened. Within a short moment, he had already guessed what was going on. Upon seeing that Huo Ci was about to land the second time, he hurriedly opened the car door. “Father-in-law, please calm down.”

Huo Ci’s lips curled up coldly. The moment he reached out to open the car door, he grabbed his collar and threw him to the ground. Then, he stepped on him and looked down at him. “Let me ask you something. Are you Xiaoqi’s biological father?”
