Gu Qingfeng spoke coldly, "Ning Wanru, as the old saying goes, ’An eye for an eye is only fair.’ You wished to end my lineage, didn’t you? Then let’s take it one by one. Ning Wanru, I want you to watch as your children and grandchildren die, one by one..."
Gu Qingfeng clenched his teeth as he spat out these words.
Then, he said to Lady Yu, "You go out first."
Because what he was about to do was somewhat bloody, and he didn’t want Lady Yu to see it.
To his surprise, Lady Yu glared, "Qingfeng, what do you mean by that?"
Gu Qingfeng replied with a bitter smile, "Lady Yu, I’m just worried that you’ll have nightmares if you see it..."
Lady Yu shook her head, unconcerned, "Don’t worry. I’ve already had nightmares for fifty years. From now on, no matter what I see, I won’t have nightmares anymore."
Hearing this, Gu Qingfeng’s heart ached once more.
His resentment towards Ning Wanru was reaching a boiling point.
He walked over to the table and picked up a dagger from it.
Coming in front of Ning Wanru, "Ning Wanru, I’m already over eighty years old. Whatever I do to you, you deserve it.
Since the law can’t punish you now, I will.
If this happened in that era, we would use the penal code of that time to end it all."
"You old bastard, what are you going to do? I warn you, release me now and there’ll be no trouble. Otherwise, if my son comes after you, your whole family will end up in jail, and you won’t die a good death, Gu Qingfeng, you damn bastard, I just regret not killing you..." Ning Wanru screamed with inner fear but outward fierceness.
"Because Heaven couldn’t stand it anymore. A wicked person like you has tormented my Gu Family repeatedly. If I could kill you with this knife today, that would be too kind a fate for you. Don’t worry, I won’t let you die so easily."
As he spoke, Gu Qingfeng reached out and slashed across Ning Wanru’s wrists.
Blood surged out suddenly.
Ning Wanru trembled all over, the intense pain, and the blood on her wrists, at this moment, made her realize, Gu Qingfeng was not joking with her.
Gu Qingfeng was truly making sure she would not die a good death.
Gu Qingfeng was indeed using his own methods to settle the grudge of the past.
And the hatred that had unfolded one after another over the past year.
Ning Wanru was so scared she fainted.
Lady Yu looked on with a somber expression at the fainted Ning Wanru.
Inside, she felt an indescribable sense of bleakness.
This woman had lived a life of luxury.
Now, she finally met with the punishment she deserved.
Lady Yu turned and walked towards the main door.
She knew, given Gu Qingfeng’s nature, he would never let Ning Wanru have good days ahead.
He would revive her, then continue to bleed her.
Or possibly use the punishment of a thousand cuts.
This was a way to deal with enemies in their circle back in those days.
And the more cruel punishment was still to come.
Lady Yu didn’t want to watch anymore.
Not that she couldn’t bear it, but because watching any further made her feel sick.
Lady Yu stepped out of the basement.
Outside, Gu Qingfeng’s trusted bodyguards were all standing by.
At that moment, they were on high alert, guarding this secret basement.
After Gu Qingfeng instructed Uncle Gu to have Second Brother Ren stop Ning Wanru’s bleeding and to keep this place under close watch, he walked out of the basement, leaning on his walking stick.
He immediately saw Lady Yu standing alone under the night sky.
