A slight frown appeared on Zuo An’s face. He turned to sideway and looked at Xu Weilai.

“You seem to have forgotten the reason I joined you.” Xu Weilai put on a fake smile and sounded distant, “I wanted Gu Yu to lose everything. Now that he died in my hand, I had my revenge. Why should I still take my stand by your side?”

She leaned backward against the car seat, “You’re not a good partner to begin with since you would turn against me anytime and manipulate me. Now that you hold the evidence to my murder crime, I will always be in your control. I have no protection. What’s in it for me to stand by you? To get threatened and manipulated by you?”

“Indeed, there must be a purpose in everything that we do.” Zuo An cast aside the feelings that lingered in his heard and regained his composure. “Is there anything that you want?”

Since they had come this far, he no longer wanted Xu Weilai to leave.

First, she knew everything about them. Even if he would let her go, his father would not. She can either be a participant, or be like Gu Yu… who ended up no longer an obstacle.

Second, he could not bear to part with her.

She was a woman who would risk anything for him when his life was in danger. She was the second woman that would do anything for him after his mother. He had already lost his mother; he was not willing to lose the Xu Weilai.

Xu Weilai closed her eyes.

What she had always wanted… was no longer possible. There was no point to bring it up again.

When she opened her eyes again, she smirked at Zuo An. “You know what I always want. What I want has always been money, more money…”

Yes, that was indeed Xu Weilai.

Zuo An asked, “How much?”

She rolled her pupils in her eyes around, as if she was considering Zuo An’s question. When she opened her mouth again, she enunciated each word. “Numbers are meaningless, there will come a day where the money runs out. I want an endless stream of money.”

“What do you mean?”

Xu Weilai opened her mouth without hesitation. “I want half of your shares in the Gu Corporation.”

The shares of Gu Corporation currently in Zuo An’s hand were those that used to belong to Mr. Gu Sr. The shares that were entrusted to Gu Xiong when Mr. Gu Sr. fell into a coma. Gu Xiong later entrusted the shares to him. Therefore, the amount of shares he had in his hand was enormous.

Although Xu Weilai was a little money-grubber, she was never greedy. Her request caught Zuo An off-guard.

Xu Weilai snickered as she taunted him further. “You’re not willing to? Can’t bear to part with them?”

She gave a careless shrug. “I think I know why I fell in love with Gu Yu and had no feelings for you. At least Gu Yu has always been straightforward in giving me money.”

Zuo An rubbed his knotted brows. “Weilai, that is not the case. Its not beneficial to have these shares.”

He could give her all the money she needed.

But if he were to give her the shares, she would be a threat to his father, and it was not to her advantage.

After all, Gu Corporation was not entirely in his control yet, there was still some back-end operations he needed to complete. He could not let any unwanted accident to happen to her, and he could not ensure her safety all the time.

Xu Weilai acted as if she couldn’t hear everything he said. She raised her chin slightly, “Just one word from you, yes or no?”

Hand between his brow, Zuo An fell into silence again.

The car drove into the courtyard of Zuo Family Residence.
