Lady Gu was her mother’s only daughter, and the old lady doted on her. Because of that, Lady Gu grew up to become such an arrogant and stupid woman.
“My daughter…” When the old lady saw the unconscious Lady Gu and her handless arm, she fainted as well.
“Mother? Mother?” Mrs. Gu tried to wake her up. She then told the servants, “Go get Lord Gu!”
The old lady woke up when Lord Gu arrived.
The first person she saw when she opened her eyes was Lord Gu.
The old lady sat up and asked in a hoarse voice, “How’s your sister?”
Lord Gu was as calm as ever. He said indifferently, “She’ll live, but her hand is gone.”
The old lady almost passed out again.
“Yue, my dearest Yue…” After the initial sadness passed, the old lady was filled with rage.
The old lady gritted her teeth. “Who did this to my daughter? Who?!”
Zhong was brought in, and he told them everything.
Because he had been forced to cut off his own arm, he hated Feng Wu.
When he told the story, he added a few details and described Feng Wu as an unreasonable and violent girl, while completely omitting everything Lady Gu had said.
“I won’t have it! That’s unforgivable!” The old lady grabbed Lord Gu’s hand and said, “Kill that Feng Wu! Now! Kill that little bi*ch!”
The old lady loved her daughter, but Lord Gu was a naturally cold man. When he saw his angry mother and his sister’s severed hand, he didn’t feel much.
However, he was still a son, so he would do his duty.
“Mother, please don’t be mad. I’ll take care of it.” Lord Gu nodded.
The old lady knew what her son was like, so she gritted her teeth and stared at him. “Bring me Feng Wu’s head and you can have the book your father left behind.”
Lord Gu’s eyes flickered, but the light disappeared in a flash.
“Mother, please get some rest. I’ll make the arrangements.” Lord Gu walked away.
The old lady hated Feng Wu so much that she wanted to eat her alive.
“Help me stand up!” The old lady soon calmed down. “Gather everything you can find on that girl!”
“My lady…” Granny Zhu hesitated.
The old lady smirked. “Killing her would be too easy. I’ll ruin her reputation and make her wish that she were dead!”
The old lady had a wicked smile on her face.
Granny Zhu swallowed and said, “My lady, you know what Lady Gu is like. The second branch of the Feng clan has obviously declined. If it was only a quarrel between Feng Wu and Qi, how could it become so serious? Shouldn’t we…”
