Liu Wei expressed that he was also very afraid. Could he leave now?
Just as he was thinking this, hurried footsteps came from outside, followed by Peng Zhongfei’s voice. “Young Master, bad news. Aunt Cui lost her footing and fell into the water.”
“What?” Peng Zhongfei quickly opened the door. “How is she?”
“She was saved, but she was quite shocked.”
“That’s good.” Peng Zhongfei heaved a sigh of relief. The voice that had appeared out of nowhere echoed in his mind.
‘Punishment. Oh yes, it must be punishment.’
He hurriedly turned his head and looked at the blueprint that Gu Yundong had placed on the table. He trembled and apologized sincerely. “Great Immortal, it’s my fault. 1 was wrong. I’ll apologize to you. 1 deserve to die. I’m a bastard. I’m not a good person. I won’t have a good ending for doing bad things.”
As he spoke, he slapped himself hard twice.
“Great Immortal, 1 promise that 1 won’t be greedy for the blueprints in the future and won’t destroy them. Moreover, this really isn’t my fault. It’s all because of him. He gave it to me. 1’11 deal with him later.”
With that, he looked at Gu Yundong. “Is this okay?”
“I don’t know either. In the past, 1 was unlucky when I tore up the blueprint. You even planned to let someone smash the house after it was built. The situation seems to be more serious than mine. 1 don’t know if he will accept your apology,” Gu Yundong said awkwardly.
Just as she finished speaking, the servant outside the door said in a panic, “Young Master, Black Wolf, Black Wolf suddenly foamed at the mouth and fell to the ground.”
The Black Wolf was a wolfhound raised by Peng Zhongfei. It usually ate raw meat and drank hot blood. It was raised very ferociously. Not to mention the people outside, even many servants in the Peng Residence were bitten until they bled.
However, Peng Zhongfei liked it very much. He felt that this dog had a wolf’s nature. He often trained it to bite living creatures, including humans.
Now, this dog died an inexplicable death…
No, how could it be inexplicable?
Peng Zhongfei knelt on the ground this time. He was so frightened that his voice trembled. “Great Immortal, please spare me. I was blind to not recognize you. 1 was wrong. Give me a chance. 1’11 offer you three incense sticks in the morning and night. 1’11 buy you the best tribute. How about this? I’ll pay for your house. Please spare me this time.”
Gu Yundong’s eyes flickered. Aiya, he was finally getting to the point.
“Young Master Peng, don’t be . Actually, Grandpa is not a bad person. As long as you sincerely repent, he will definitely forgive you.” Gu Yundong said, “Actually, there’s no need to pay any money to build a house. Grandpa has already given me the money.”
“That won’t do, that won’t do. 1 have to give it. How about this? You can keep the loo taels of silver that the Great Immortal gave you to buy something else for the Great Immortal. Don’t you still need to offer three incense sticks in the morning and night? Buy the best incense. The Great Immortal’s house is very important. You have to build it well, loo taels of silver is not enough. 200 taels of silver, 1’11 give you 200 taels of silver.”
Gu Yundong was in a difficult position. “Is this really good? Then I’m taking advantage of you, Young Master Peng.”
“What do you mean by taking advantage? You’re just putting in a lot of effort for the Great Immortal. I’ll pay and you’ll help. I’m very sincere.”
Liu Wei hurriedly said, “I’m also sincere. I’ll pay 50 taels.”
He hoped that the Great Immortal would not treat him and Peng Zhongfei as allies and let him suffer.
Gu Yundong’s mouth twitched. These rich young masters were really prodigals..
