"Mom, a gun! That’s a gun! He’s going to kill us! Mom!" Bai Wei finally cried out in terror.
Ou Mufeng also started to feel afraid, especially after another bottle of wine smashed hard onto her head, her fear escalated.
This was definitely a madman; he had lost all reason, lost all humanity.
Finally overcome with panic upon hearing her daughter’s cries, she too struggled to lift her head to glance at the table. Seeing that there was indeed a pitch-black gun lying there, she felt as if all her strength had been drained from her. Her head, covered in blood and glass, began to tremble with fear.
"Who... who are you? I don’t know what you’re talking about?"
"Don’t know? Shall I help you remember?" Just a glance from the corner of his eye, and immediately, the black-clad men who had been standing by in the living room came over, dragged her up from the ground, and propped her onto a chair.
Ou Mufeng, finally screaming like a pig being slaughtered, cried out, "I’ll talk I’ll talk I’ll talk..."
She finally understood why he was known as the King of Hell!
Yes, falling into his hands would truly be worse than death!
Fortunately, once she said she would talk, the black-clad men who had been restraining her temporarily stopped, and then the entire living room, everyone was waiting for her answer, waiting for that response.
Including those outside in the courtyard, who were also waiting!
"I... I admit, I orchestrated yesterday’s incident. I... I heard that her eyes couldn’t stand jade, that looking at it would cause her to lose her mind in unbearable pain, so I had Bai Guanjie persuade Dad to go offer ancestor worship, drawing you away, and then I deliberately had the maid take her to the Chrysanthemum Garden. There, I provoked her with jade, and then I fabricated the illusion of the child falling from her arms... all of it... was my doing."
It was a silence like death!
It’s as if all noise had ceased. At that moment, the entire hall, no no no, the whole Orchid Garden, was void of any sound, except for the woman who had just spoken.
She had engineered it all?
So it was all her doing, her own plot from behind the scenes?
And that child, that barely one-year-old child, had suffered a concussion and even undergone a craniotomy because of her?!!
The air in the courtyard seemed to surge like a fiery tide, like a storm sweeping through...
"Ou Mufeng, you beast! Are you even human? How could you do such a thing? Are you a beast?" The first to rush in was Bai Tingfang, who, upon storming in from outside, raised her hand and slapped the woman being held by the black-clad men!
After the slap, the servants from the garden also gathered in the courtyard. Seeing this scene, they all looked furiously at the woman, especially Sister Wang, who was pointing at her, tears streaming down her face in anger.
"Miss, to think you’re the eldest miss of this garden. Do you realize what you’ve done? Do you know what our young lady suffered through yesterday? She had a high fever and was delirious, talking nonsensical for the whole afternoon, and now she’s missing. Are you still human?"
"Right! How could she be so cruel?"
"We’re all family, how could she be so scheming? Is she happy only if the young lady is dead?"
The clamor of discussion and accusations, coupled with Bai Tingfang’s furious slap, finally caused the man who had been enduring his rage in the living room to lose his calm as well.
