Chapter 456: Those Three Bastards
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
That person called Gu Yundong was indeed unwilling at first, but her mother was not captured by the Second Young Master. Her mother voluntarily helped the Second Young Master trick her daughter into coming in.
Moreover, Concubine Gu had only been in the Xin residence for a day, but she was already bewitched by the riches inside and willingly became the concubine of the Second Young Master of the Xin residence.
Gu Dajiang did not find out about this at first. As a complete stranger, he anxiously asked around for Gu Yundong’s residence. After hiding in the Xin residence for a day, he was discovered.
As it happened, it was the wife of the second young master of the Xin family, who was the daughter of the current prefecture magistrate of Wanqing Prefecture.
When she saw Gu Dajiang, she also received news that this person was getting close to Concubine Gu.
Second Young Madam smiled. After sizing Gu Dajiang up, she suspected his relationship with Concubine Gu.
“I heard that Concubine Gu has a father. You’re so concerned about her. Could you be her father?”
Gu Dajiang immediately denied it. Seeing this, Second Young Madam became even more certain. “Why are you nervous? Are you afraid that I’ll use you to threaten Concubine Gu?”
Gu Dajiang refused to admit it even more badly. However, regardless of whether Second Young Madam was really certain or just in a bad mood, she said, “If you admit your relationship with Concubine Gu, I’ll let you go. If you don’t admit it, you’re a thief who barged into my Xin Manor.”
When she said this, her eyes turned sharp. She directly said to the guard of the Xin family, “Break his fingers. This is the price for daring to break into the Xin Residence.”
Gu Dajiang didn’t even have time to explain before his fingers were pressed to the ground. The guard knocked him over with a stick.
He fell back in pain, but a maid behind him poured a hot teapot on him.
In an instant, he was so hot that his entire body convulsed and his shoulders immediately blistered.
However, his torture was not over yet.
Someone had told Concubine Gu. Concubine Gu brought Second Young Master over and said that Second Young Madam had deliberately found someone to impersonate her father to ruin her reputation.
Only then did Gu Dajiang realize that he had mistaken her for someone else. Concubine Gu wasn’t his daughter. Although her family had fled here, they had fled here when their ancestors were still alive.
Second Young Master naturally could not reprimand Second Young Madam. He was already in the wrong for taking a concubine.
However, Concubine Gu was his new favorite and she was still new. He had to stand up for her, right?
Hence, he pushed all the blame to Gu Dajiang. He said that the man had pretended to be Concubine Gu’s father to enter the residence and swindle others, which was simply detestable. He got the guards to beat him up 20 times.
Those people only threw him out when he was on the verge of death.
Gu Yundong trembled when she heard that. These bastards did not care about human lives at all.
One was to vent her anger.
One was to trample on others in order to fight for favor.
One was trying to pacify his wife and please his concubine for the sake of having two women.
That was why they could casually take her father’s life!!
Gu Yundong quickly lowered her head to prevent her father from seeing the fierceness in her eyes.
“I’m fine. Look, if not for this, I wouldn’t have been able to see you, right?” Gu Dajiang comforted her.
Gu Yundong looked up and forced a smile.
No, without this, she would have been able to see Gu Dajiang safe and sound in the Yu family, not the father who was on the verge of death and was sweating from the pain.
Gu Yundong took a deep breath and suppressed her anger. At this moment, Tong Shuitao entered the house.
She leaned close to Gu Yundong’s ear nervously and said, “Miss, something seems to have happened.”
