Chapter 930 — So What If We're Bullying You!

"Excessive? In the dictionary of our Yu family, the word 'excessive' has never once appeared!" Yu Bide laughed heartily and brought his palm down on the marble tea table before him. In an instant the hard natural marble split apart, shattered into pieces, shards flying everywhere; several flew straight into Gu Pengzhan's face and tore open his skin.

Gu Pengzhan stood there, an expression of indescribable desolation on his face. The Gu family's crisis had come, and he was in no way prepared to meet it.

"The second condition I can agree to — all my shares in the group, I will hand over to you. But the first condition... Yaoyao cannot marry into your Yu family!" Gu Pengzhan hesitated, then finally made this decision.

The company could be lost, but Yaoyao he could not lose! Marry into the Yu family as a concubine? She would likely suffer every misery thereafter — how could he destroy her happiness? And whom she married was her own choice; how could he interfere?

"When the Yu family speaks, it is water poured out — how can it be taken back?" Yu Haitian said coldly. "Gu Pengzhan, you had better think clearly. We are not haggling with you; we are letting you choose. Either your whole family dies, or your daughter marries and you pay compensation! Choose for yourself!"

"Don't push a man too far!" Gu Pengzhan clenched his teeth, and flames of fury shot from his eyes. His hands clenched tight, and his whole body trembled beyond control...

"Push a man too far?" Yu Bide only smiled with an easy air. "So what if we are bullying you? Do as you please — you can look for people, look for help. But just see who dares to make trouble for our Yu family. Don't forget the status behind our Yu family: the rules of the mundane world are void where the hidden clans are concerned!"

With that sentence, Yu Bide was obliquely making clear that if Gu Pengzhan had backing, he had best bring it out quickly and stop hiding it! He meant to draw out the power behind Wei Zhao. Of course, if Wei Zhao did not step forward to help, that would prove there was no power behind him — and then the Yu family could knead him as they pleased!

"You..." A sharp pain twisted through Gu Pengzhan's chest. He clutched at it, breathing rapid and shallow. He had not expected the Yu family to refuse even to discuss terms — whatever they wanted, they demanded. Gu Pengzhan had already compromised, yet they pressed him step by step!

"By the way, that bodyguard of your daughter's is quite something, isn't he? If she doesn't want to marry, that's fine — as long as he can show a little real strength, I can let her off!" Afraid that Gu Pengzhan might not recall the power behind Wei Zhao, Yu Bide added this reminder.

"..." Gu Pengzhan was somewhat speechless. He did not understand Yu Bide's meaning; he thought Yu Bide knew full well that Wei Zhao had lost all his strength and was deliberately making sarcastic remarks! Otherwise, if Wei Zhao's strength were intact, how would they dare come to his door together?

"Think it over yourself, and give us an answer in the next couple of days! You have only two days!" With that, Yu Bide and Yu Haitian left Gu Pengzhan's office together.

Watching the two receding figures, Gu Pengzhan sank helplessly to the floor! He did not know what to do, or how to do it! Disaster had already come down upon the Gu family — but whom could he blame? Regret was useless now.

If he had not, in his kindness of heart, given Jin Gubang ideas and stirred his disloyalty, so that he joined hands with Zhao Qibing, none of today's troubles would have come about! Human greed is boundless — especially in men like Jin Gubang and Zhao Qibing. Once greed took root in them, it would grow without limit as time passed. Wei Zhao's appearance had made them give it up for a while, but the moment Wei Zhao lost his strength, these greedy men came knocking again!

And now, not only were his own troubles greater, he had also drawn a few enemies upon Wei Zhao! Otherwise Wei Zhao would not have had to go back to his hometown to take refuge. Though Wei Zhao's feud with these people was not entirely because of him, if not for him, Wei Zhao would never have come into contact with them at all, let alone made enemies of them!

These past two days, An Jianwen kept feeling pain in his kidney, and he often passed blood in his urine. So he went to the hospital for a checkup — and the results gave him a great shock!

"Young man, where did you get this kidney transplanted? It's rejecting, and judging by the indicators, it isn't a match at all. You'll have to have it surgically removed as soon as possible!" the doctor said to An Jianwen, holding the test report.

"Huh?" An Jianwen was stunned. "Impossible — this kidney is my own, I didn't get a transplant! How could it reject?"

"Your own? That can't be right. There are clear signs on your body of kidney transplant surgery... and the appearance of this kidney differs somewhat from your other one..." From the scan the doctor could not be certain it was a dog's kidney; he only felt it was not quite the same as An Jianwen's other, original kidney.

After all, human kidneys vary from person to person; they are not all identical, and some are even malformed.

"This..." An Jianwen could hardly explain the reason. If the doctor grew suspicious and called the police, that would be trouble!

"Young man, this kidney of yours really doesn't match. Rejection has already set in. If it goes on, you won't even keep your life. You'd best have it removed as soon as possible!" the doctor said earnestly.

"All right, let me think about it!" An Jianwen frowned. He had gone to such trouble to get his own kidney back — how could he have it cut out? Wouldn't that make the whole swap pointless?

Once out of the hospital, An Jianwen called Zhong Yongliang at once.

Zhong Yongliang was at that moment at home enjoying a celebratory feast with Gao Xiaofu. Seeing An Jianwen's call, he signaled Gao Xiaofu to be quiet, then answered: "Hello? Brother Wen, what's the matter?"

"Brother Pinliang, there's a big problem!" An Jianwen said urgently. "This kidney I had put in afterward — it doesn't match!"

"Doesn't match? How could that be? Isn't that your original kidney?" Zhong Yongliang exclaimed with feigned surprise, though inwardly he sneered: if it matched, that would be a real ghost — unless you're a dog, how could you match a dog's kidney?

"That's right, I'm puzzled too! But I just went to the hospital for a checkup, and it really doesn't match!" An Jianwen said. "And now the doctor wants me to have it removed!"

"What? Removal surgery?" Zhong Yongliang feigned a start, but inwardly he thought: I had that removal surgery long ago. It's only natural they want you to have it — if they didn't, you'd be waiting to die! Yet his face showed only puzzlement as he said: "Impossible. Could the test results be wrong?"
