27 Chapter 26

Banquet Hall

Everyone in the banquet hall looked stunned.

They looked at each other in disbelief. They all heard He Donghai calling 'Gu Weicheng'. Now those who didn't recognise Gu Weicheng in the beginning also realised who this person was.

Gu Weicheng,the heir of the Gu group. Though many people have never met him in person before, Everyone in the hall knows his name. Not because he is the heir of the once renownedGu Group, but because he himself was famous around the circle.

5 years ago, Gu Weicheng was the dream of every woman and omega. A dominant alpha among dominant Alpha's who stand above every alpha,

No alpha in the M country can compare with him. A handsome, intelligent and outstanding alpha. He helped his father in business, and proved he was more capable than his father when he was in the business world. Many were jealous of the Gu group for having such an heir.

Gu group was safe in his hands and would have flourished, if that accident 5 years ago didn't happen.

5 years ago. In the accident, Chairman Gu and his wife Mrs.Gu died. And this alpha Gu Weicheng went missing. This gave a chance to those who were against the Gu group to take this opportunity and suppressed the Gu group.

If Gu Weicheng was alive Gu group wouldn't have reached this point of destruction.

After today, everyone thought it would be the end of the Gu group. But now, they can't be sure. Because the person who they thought died has come back. The perfect backup for the Gu family.

Every single person in the hall was very stunned.

He Donghai and his parents, whose faces turned pale, looked at each other.

"Brother." Xiaochen looked at his brother.

'This wasn't what we planned.' He thought.

'Because of my incapability, my brother has to come forward. Why am I so useless.' He cursed himself. His overall mood was not good. Now the thought of him making his brothers plan to go vain made him more distressed.

Gu Weicheng walked through the stunned crowd. Everyone unconsciously gave him a way to walk.

The handsome figure walked luxuriously forward. The silence in the banquet hall continued.

Gu Weicheng stopped his steps in front of Xiaochen, who hung his head down. He looked like a dejected puppy in Gu Weicheng's eyes. He patted the small head of his brother.

"You did well." He said.

Xiaochen looked up. Seeing his brother's face. Without any hint of anger calmed his mind.

'Brother isn't angry with me.' he pressed his lips and hugged Weicheng.

Weicheng as always patted his brother's head.

"Sorry." Weicheng said.

Seeing Xiaochen's distressed look. Gu Weicheng felt a sting in his heart. For Gu Weicheng who never had anyone who he can call a family, who always thought he liked not having anyone near his heart because it became his flaw, slapped his own face after spending his time with his brother. First time he felt the warmth of a family. Unknowingly within a small period of time, Xiaochen became an important part of his. The most important person he ever had in his two lives.

But seeing that person on the verge of crying made him angry at himself. Because he wanted to know what would happen at the banquet, he pushed Xiaochen towards these snakes alone.

Weicheng was clear from the beginning, what will happen. Still he did this. He underestimated the importance of Gu Xiaochen for him.

"You didn't do anything wrong." Weicheng for the first time in his life was coaxing someone.

He caressed Xiaochen.

These two brothers were in their own world forgetting about the stunned people around him.

Everyone came back to their senses after a while. And as always, just like a pack of Bees they began to murmur.

He Donghai, clenched his hands. Seeing the familiar scene in front of him. They have known each other since they were very young and he saw this scene many times in his life. Seeing this again brings him back to reality.

'Why ... .Why is he still alive?' He gritted his teeth.

Weicheng suddenly looked towards him. The warmth in his eyes disappeared instantly and it became extremely cold. That look was like an ice spear, and pierced his heart. Every person in the hall shivered.

"A'Dong, it's been a while. Or should I call you Chairman He." After separating from Xiaochen. Weicheng stood before him as a wall protecting his little brother. Then he walked two steps forward. There was a cold smile on his face. It was a hundred times scarier than Xiaochens' ice smile.

He Donghai didn't say anything. But he was terrified. The person in front of him was the same Gu Weicheng he knew. No, it's not the same. Those eyes weren't the same. It wasn't as peaceful as it was 5 years ago. Those eyes were menaching and blood thirsty. It was the eyes of a slaughterer.

He Donghai was unable to move away from those eyes which were totally focused on him. He felt as if he was in front of a carnivore who wanted to eat him alive.

"You...You didn't die?" This question was come from Mrs. He. She said it in a daze. And unknowingly said her thoughts louder.

Weicheng glanced sideways at her.

"Are you disappointed that i wasn't dead Mrs. He." He asked directly. Everyone present heard the disappointment in her question too. They all looked at Mrs. He.

When Gu Weicheng's look landed on her. Her legs began to go powerless. She sweated and her face became extremely ugly.

"Of... Of Course not." Mr. He who finally maintained his composure said.

"She was only worried about you." He said.

"Oh." Gu Weicheng's eyebrows went upward. He looked amused. "You were worried about me.!" He tilted his head.

"Well then, If i was dead. How can I stand before you alive?" He said. " I am completely okay. So you don't need to worry Mrs. He." He said in a sarcastic voice.

Now that his manaching look wasn't there. Everyone began to breathe.

"Ye...Yes.." Mrs. He replied.

Mrs. He didn't have the courage to look toward him anymore.

"When..When did you come back?" It was the first word to come from He Donghai.

Weicheng looked at He Donghai, who was trying hard to maintain his composure. He smirked.

"It has not been long since I came back." He paused.

"And I heard you were taking 'good' care of my brother when I wasn't here. So I came to take a look and thank you." Weicheng said in a magnetic voice.

He Donghai began to sweat.

"Now I can see. How are you, take good care of my little Chen." He Donghai pressed his lips hearing the sarcastic words from Weicheng.

"It's not like what you are thinking." Mr.Hr said.

"What am I thinking?" Weicheng asked Mr.He. He was not smiling. His face was angry.

"We should talk about it after the party ends. And you shouldn't get angry because of some misunderstanding." Mr.He tried to calm down the atmosphere. He now clearly knows that this conversation can't last anymore.

"Misunderstanding?" Weicheng tilted his head as he was confused. After acting like he realised something he looked towards Mr.He. "Is it a misunderstanding that the He family, which has always been friends with the Gu family, not only turned back to the Gu family when they were in trouble but also helped others to destroy the Gu family." He paused. And said in a terrifying voice.

"Or is Chairman He cancelling the engagement with Xiaochen without even discussing it with him." His voice was extremely cold. He looked at He Donghai.

"Or is calling my brother an orphan in public and insulting him a misunderstanding?" His voice once again terrified everyone.

Though He Donghai came back to his senses. He didn't say anything. Well, to be precise, he was unable to say anything.

Mr.He also became silent because he realised that Weicheng came here knowing everything.

'tch, if I knew he was still alive, I wouldn't have allowed to cancel this engagement.' He thought. Some kind of anxiety began to form within him.

"Well, it was good that you already cancelled the engagement. I don't need to waste my precious time on it now." He said arrogantly. He Donghai gritted his teeth.

Mr. He wanted to say something more. But was unable to. Before that Weicheng walked towards Xiaochen.

"Then we will leave first. You should continue your celebration." Weicheng said without looking towards the pale look of others. He was about to walk but paused for a moment. And looked back towards the stage. He was looking at the small figure who was dumbfoundedly standing near He Donghai. He was the only person who didn't come back to his reality till now.

Gu Weicheng only looked towards him for a fleeting moment. But it brought back Lee Fengge from his thoughts.Lee Fengge saw the figure who was walking out of the building hugging a Xiaochen. He took a step forward, and wanted to call.He felt like a guilty wife who was caught having an affair. Before he could call. That figure disappeared from his view.

Nobody saw this. Because just like Lee Fengge. Everyone looked towards the door in Daze. The hall became silent again. It was as if a storm passed by.

After some time, they all come back to senses. And the hall began to get noisy. Somewhere still in disbelief. And many people looked towards the He family with questions.

Many of them were confused.

With the current standing. He family is much more powerful than Gu's. Still,why?, why it looked like Mr.He was trying hard to coax Young master Gu.

It was clear that. Mr. He was scared of Gu Weicheng. What can be the reason for it?

Everyone had this question in their heart. Mr. He and He Donghai looked at each other. Their faces were extremely ugly.
