This time, Gu Yundong did not wake up her brother who was sleeping soundly holding his stomach. She walked out quietly.
The moonlight was still as bright as yesterday, illuminating the entire courtyard.
As soon as Gu Yundong opened the door of the central room, she saw four black shadows in the middle of the courtyard. He looked closer and realized that they were four sacks.
There was no movement from the sack. Gu Yundong looked around and hesitated for a moment before going forward to untie the rope on the sack. Then, he saw a human head.
“Woah.” Gu Yundong suddenly took a step back. To be honest, if she had not experienced many things and did not have a strong mental fortitude, she would have thought that there was a murder and body dumping case. She would have screamed in fear and summoned her neighbors over.
Who the f*ck left him here?
Gu Yundong cursed whoever did this. She calmed herself down and went forward again.
Now that she took a closer look, the person in the sack was still covered with a black cloth. He looked like… a thief?
Gu Yundong’s eyes widened and she suddenly came back to her senses. She looked at the four sacks again. Wasn’t that the number of people Shao Qingyuan had told her?
So these people were thrown here by Shao Qingyuan?
Gu Yundong felt as if a mouthful of blood was stuck in her chest. She could not spit it out. Her head hurt!
After a while, she went forward and patted the face of the person in the sack. “Hey, wake up, wake up.”
“Ugh…” Zhuangzi opened his eyes in a daze. His mind was in a daze for a while. In the next moment, he seemed to have thought of something and hurriedly shouted, “Hero…” Before he could say the words ‘spare my life’, his mouth was blocked by a rag.
He whimpered twice, and his eyes adapted to the moonlight. He finally saw who the person in front of him was.
Zhuangzi’s eyes widened. Wasn’t this the little girl from the Gu family?
He remembered that… last night, the few of them came to her house to steal something. Then, they were hit on the back of the head. When they woke up, their eyes were covered and their mouths were gagged. He didn’t know where they were, but they were ambushed.
At that time, he thought that he was going to be trafficked into a black kiln to be a laborer and live a life worse than death. However, before he could escape, he was beaten half to death and fainted again.
When he woke up again, that person beat him up again.
He thought that he had encountered a pervert. He did not expect that when he woke up, he would actually see who the person in front of him was.
Could it be that she was the one who knocked out the four of them last night?
‘No… 1 don’t think so?’
Gu Yundong seemed to see the changes in life in his eyes. In the end, under his frightened gaze, she finally said faintly, “What’s your name? Answer the question properly and don’t shout. Otherwise, you might lose your fingers.”
Gu Yundong held a dagger and pulled out his bound hand. The dagger flashed coldly and was placed on his finger. With a little force, blood could be seen.
Zhuangzi was scared to death. Hence, after Gu Yundong removed the cloth ball from his mouth, he immediately answered obediently, “My name is Zhuangzi.” “You came to my house in the middle of the night to steal something, right?”
Zhuangzi immediately shook his head and denied, “No, we were just passing by.” Before he could finish speaking, he felt a sharp pain on his finger and hurriedly nodded. “We’re here to steal. We saw that you can build such a big house, so you must be rich. There’s no man in your family, so we can easily succeed. After that, you don’t have anyone to trouble us. Other than me, there are Liangzi, Big Qian, and Gousheng. Liangzi is our big brother.”
“That’s right. Didn’t you give me a clear explanation? 1’11 treat you better tomorrow.” Gu Yundong smiled and put away the dagger.
For some reason, Zhuangzi shuddered. Why? She was clearly a thirteen-year-old girl. Why did she make him feel so scary? Could it be that he had been traumatized by her a few times during the day and was subconsciously afraid of her?
“What does tomorrow mean?”
“You’ll know when the time comes.” Gu Yundong raised his hand and Zhuangzi fainted again..
