Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
“Okay, then take us to the house by the lake,” Gu Qingxue said coldly.
The hair on Madam Kou’s back instantly shuddered, and she said loudly, unwilling to give up, “No, why should I be the one to bring you there? I’ve never been to that place, so I’m not going!’
“Liu Yi, take Madam Kou with you.” As Gu Qingxue spoke, she stood up with an indifferent expression and walked out first.contemporary romance
Without any hesitation, Liu Yi opened the door and threw the unconscious Gu Chengbin into the cell. Then, he grabbed Madam Kou’s collar and forcefully dragged her out of the cell.
Madam Kou turned pale with fright, calling out for her son, “Son, son, get up and save me!”
Unfortunately, Gu Chengbin was unconscious and could not feel anything. No matter how loud Madam Kou’s screams were, he was still lying on the ground, moving.
Madam Kou wailed and cried, but she still could not escape being dragged away. Her hands were tied up by Liu Yi, and after Gu Qingxue left the prince regent’s residence and got into the carriage, Madam Kou was also forcefully stuffed into the carriage.
Madam Kou’s hands were tied behind her back. She lost her balance and fell heavily into the carriage. She opened her eyes with a cry and saw Gu Qingxue sitting in the carriage with a cold expression, looking down at her.
She had always looked down on Gu Qingxue, so how could Madam Kou tolerate Gu Qingxue being placed above her now? She said angrily, ‘Gu Qingxue, don’t think that you have the right to be so arrogant. The prince regent’s life is hanging by a thread. You’re no match for my daughter and her master. If you send yourself to them now, you’re just seeking your own death!
Gu Qingxue seemed to have heard the funniest joke in the world. She looked at
Madam Kou with a half-smile on her face. “l thought you didn’t know much. I didn’t expect you to know what kind of person Gu Lingyue’s master is. Since that’s the case, I’ll have to trouble you to tell me about Gu Lingyue’s master.”
Madam Kou had originally wanted to make Gu Qingxue fear them and let them off, but she had never thought that they would shoot themselves in the foot.
However, Gu Qingxue had already caught on. Even if Madam Kou wanted to play dumb, it would be useless. She had no choice but to tell Gu Qingxue everything she knew, without missing a single word.
“l don’t know the details. 1 only know that the old woman’s health is bad and she often faints. At that time, the old woman had once said that she had been refining Gu worms for many years and had inhaled a lot of poisonous gas, which led to her being poisoned. Moreover, this poison had seeped deep into the bone marrow, and there was no cure. However, that old woman’s Gu worm was really useful. Yue ‘er relied on the Gu worm she gave to successfully obtain Prince Heng’s love.” At the mention of the old woman, a deep fear appeared in Madam Kou’s eyes.
“Yes, it was all thanks to that old woman that Prince Heng died so miserably.” Gu Qingxue laughed coldly, her words equally sharp.
Madam Kou could not believe her ears and asked faintly, “Gu Qingxue, are you sure you want to go? If Yue’er’s master really is there, wouldn’t you be sending yourself to your death?”
Although Madam Kou seemed to be concerned about Gu Qingxue, they were actually making plans for her own sake.
If she followed them, Gu Lingyue and her master would know that she had betrayed them. By then, she would be in big trouble!
Gu Qingxue could see through Madam Kou’s thoughts with a single glance, but she had to admit that Madam Kou’s words made sense..
