"Dad, just now these people wanted us to call that man our dad, and they said if mom didn’t agree, they’d sell me and brother. Dad, these people are bad, you should have them arrested," Xiaobao stated as Gu Yecheng held him in his arms, his demeanor far more haughty than before.
Listening to Xiaobao’s words, Gu Yecheng’s gaze turned cold, "Some people really are tired of being human and want to taste being a ghost. Ye Fei, take them all back, I must interrogate them thoroughly. I’m not even dead yet, and someone is already thinking about marrying my wife and selling my kids."
Listening to Gu Yecheng’s icy words, the driver was frightened and, despite the pain in his body, crawled to Gu Yecheng’s side, "Young Master Gu, I know I was wrong. I was just doing someone’s bidding for money, Young Madam Gu is not an easy target, although we brought her here, but as you see, she and the children are unharmed. Look at us, some injured, some crippled."
"Young Master Gu, I truly know I was wrong, please spare us for the sake of the grievous injuries we suffered," his legs were nailed with a rake, surely crippled.
And his old back, whether it’s affected or not was still unknown.
"Who made you do this?" Gu Yecheng coldly smiled, you’re from the shadows, Asura.
"It was a woman, at least what she looks like, I didn’t see clearly. I just look at the numbers and the task details. And she promised me that as long as I handled this well, she’d support me from behind, allowing me to establish an organization. Young Master Gu, I really didn’t harm the Young Madam, please let us live."
Gu Yecheng and Xiaofeng exchanged glances.
The first person they thought of was Xu Xuezi.
But it seemed unlikely; Xu Xuezi was bedridden, stripped of any power, she couldn’t possibly arrange these things.
It must be someone else, perhaps other members of the Xu Family.
"Young Master." Ye Fei looked at the driver’s face, chuckling, "Sir, look, don’t they look like the leader from that robbery case last time?"
Half a month ago, a jewelry store in Imperial Capital was robbed. At that time, a clerk remembered one of the perpetrator’s faces and had it sketched by a police officer.
That face coincidentally matched the one right before them.
Gu Yecheng smiled lightly, "It’s like finding what’s hard to find with great effort only to find it without even trying, perfect, with two crimes on his head, his issues for the second half of his life are basically solved."
The driver’s expression fell; he didn’t want to resolve his life issues in that place, he still wanted to make a big splash and become famous.
Before he could speak, Ye Fei clapped his hands, signaling people to come and drag them into the car.
"Miss Su, oh, no, Young Madam Gu, please save me, I promise, if you save me, I will definitely obey you in everything from now on."
Xiaofeng was speechless; she dared not trust the loyalty shown under these circumstances.
The three drivers were dragged away; Zhao Hu outside the courtyard also stopped groaning, his eyes filled with horror, what kind of person was this woman, she seemed formidable.
"Wife, are you alright?" Now that the people in the courtyard were dragged away, it naturally became quiet.
"Do I look like I’m hurt?" Xiaofeng chuckled, looking at him in his outfit, and threw a flirtatious glance, "Not bad, quite imposing."
"Sister, sister, are you okay?" Xiaonian kicked those men a few times before rushing in.
"Auntie." Xiaobao, always sweet-tongued, beamed when he saw his aunt.
Xiaonian spread her arms wide and naturally caught Xiaobao.
"Uncle." Dabao walked over to Xiaoyan, who picked him up.
"Xiaofeng, are you alright?" Chu Qing asked with concern.
"Mom, dad." Xiaofeng smiled, looking at the couple who entered, "I’m fine, but it seems they are not."
"You!" Chu Qing felt very relieved; his daughter never ceased to amaze: "Why do you still carry chili powder on you?"
"For self-defense," Xiaofeng curled her lips, "this is the third time it’s come in handy, so it’s quite good." Indeed, she wanted to ask Gao Fangzhou and his team to develop a self-defense product specifically for single women, wondering if there was a market.
"Mom, that invention of my sister’s is good, later I’ll have her prepare some for me too. If anyone tries to mess with me, I’ll spray them with pepper water and make sure they don’t see tomorrow’s sun."
"You! I’d be thankful if you just don’t mess around outside," Chu Qing replied.
Outside the courtyard, Zhao Hu, seeing Xiaofeng and her group come out, tightened up.
