CHAPTER 615: CHAPTER 615: BEING ENEMIES WITH GU MOQIAN, WE GAIN NO BENEFITS

Jin Xin turned around to look at Jin Qichuan, her eyes welling up with tears. She bit her lip tremblingly but ultimately said nothing more.

"I don’t have time to watch your sibling affection here." Gu Moqian slowly withdrew his fist, glaring coldly at the two of them. "Jin Qichuan, if you keep being this stubborn, I won’t hold back. Your Wells will be driven out of Rongcheng soon!"

Wells was a service brand Jin Qichuan had painstakingly built from scratch, encompassing fitness clubs, horse ranches, and spa resorts. If Gu Moqian wanted to bring Wells down, with his resources and capabilities, he could absolutely make it happen!

After the warning, Gu Moqian turned and left with an icy demeanor.

"Brother, are you okay?" Jin Xin looked at Jin Qichuan’s slightly red and swollen cheek and asked with concern.

The Maybach quickly disappeared at the end of the road. Jin Qichuan retracted his gaze and replied indifferently, "I’m fine."

Seeing him take strides toward the Mercedes, Jin Xin tightly clenched her fists before releasing them, feeling a sense of injustice for Jin Qichuan. He didn’t need to throw away the brand he’d built through sleepless nights for a love that wasn’t meant to be!

She suddenly hurried to catch up and mustered her courage to speak. "Brother, let it go. Fighting against Gu Moqian won’t do us any good. Why continue this?"

Jin Qichuan’s face was somber, making it impossible to discern his inner emotions.

"Brother, I admit I misunderstood Ji Wei before, but I’ve already posted online to clarify the truth about everything that happened. I won’t go looking for her anymore. Let’s keep our distance from Gu Moqian, and stay away from her, okay? Seeing you like this, I’m really worried..."

Jin Xin kept trying to persuade him.

"Get in the car."

After a long silence, Jin Qichuan spoke flatly. His gaze was as dark as the shadows, in stark contrast to the warm sunlight overhead.

...

Shen Yu wandered back from outside, only to see all their belongings piled up in the hallway after being tossed out. Zhu Ming’an sat in his wheelchair guarding the heap of junk, his face pale and lifeless.

"Ming’an, what on earth happened here?" Shen Yu asked, her face full of shock.

Zhu Ming’an raised his head to look at her, his expression grim and menacing. "This is Gu Moqian’s doing! He wants to drive us out of Rongcheng and leave us homeless!"

Shen Yu staggered upon hearing this, pale-faced as she leaned against the wall. "It’s already getting dark. Where can we go now? Are we really going to end up sleeping on the streets?"

At that moment, the landlord came out from the house, locked the door, and turned around with a sour expression, starting to shoo them away. "Get out, get out! Just looking at you makes me angry! You tried to ruin Miss Ji, and now you have the nerve to play the victim? Those people who donated money to you online are probably dying to curse you right now!"

Shen Yu was stunned. "Y-you... what do you mean by that?"

"Don’t play dumb with me! You and your husband know exactly what schemes you’ve been plotting! The internet has been all over this! Now the two of you are the rats being chased out of Rongcheng, hated by everyone! You’re old enough to know better, yet you won’t learn. Serves you right!"

After scolding them, the landlord started walking off. Shen Yu quickly grabbed her sleeve.

"Ma’am, please let us stay here for one more night. It’s already dark outside. I promise I won’t short you on money; I can even pay extra—a few hundred more! Look, I have money!"

As she spoke, Shen Yu hurriedly pulled out her wallet and took out a few red bills.

It was the money she had just withdrawn this afternoon, donated by kind-hearted people online.

"Who wants your dirty money?" the landlord snapped, shoving her hand away roughly. "Get out now! Otherwise, I’ll have the security guard downstairs come up and throw you out!"

"Ma’am, it’s so cold outside. My husband is sick—are you really going to force us onto the streets where we could freeze to death?"

"Ma’am, ma’am! Just this once, please..."

"Hey! Are you really just going to leave us like this?"

...

The landlord stormed downstairs without looking back, completely ignoring Shen Yu’s desperate pleas.
