“That’s bullsh*t!” Lord Gu glared at Mrs. Gu. “You don’t know what you’re talking about!”
Mrs. Gu smiled sadly. “I asked you why you wanted to kill me, and what did you say? You said that you never wanted to marry me, and that Dragon Valley forced you! Gu Guanjun, do you even have a heart?! You fainted outside Dragon Valley, covered in blood! You were running away from those people, and I saved you!”
All eyes were on Lord Gu, whose face was very dark. He looked like he wanted to cut Mrs. Gu into tiny pieces.
Mrs. Gu said, “You courted me after I saved you, saying that I was the only woman you wanted to marry! I only learned much later that your family messed with the wrong people, and they were trying to kill you! Dragon Valley got you out of trouble in the end, otherwise, the entire Gu family would have been wiped out by now! Dragon Valley is the only reason you’ve been able to live peacefully for so many years!
“I only knew how much debt your family was in after I married you, and I’ve been supporting your family with my dowry ever since! Nearly all of it is gone!”
What?! The Long family glared at Gu Guanjun.
Mrs. Gu went on, “I treated your parents like my own ever since I married you. I gave you many children, and I doted on your sister! Have I ever done anything wrong? You live under Dragon Valley’s protection and have used Dragon Valley’s money, but in the end, you tried to kill me!”
Such accusations!
It made people want to cry.
Lord Gu wanted to retort but didn’t know what to say.
Seeing this, Lady Gu was anxious. She had to do something…
“Sister-in-law, you’re awake! I was so worried!” Lady Gu wanted to find an opportunity to knock Mrs. Gu out, when Mrs. Gu grabbed her arm.
The lady said, “Gu Yunyan, have I ever done anything to you?!”
Lady Gu said, “No, of course not.”
Mrs. Gu said, “If that’s the case, why did you help your brother to kill me?!”
What? Lady Gu was in it, too?!
Everyone stared at Lady Gu.
Lady Gu said, “I…”
Mrs. Gu stepped forward and said, “Do you still remember what you told Gu Guanjun in that room when you thought that I was dead?”
Lady Gu already had a guilty conscience. Hearing those words, she stumbled back and fell to the floor. Her face was ghastly pale, and her fingers trembled.
“What did you say? ‘Brother, don’t worry. I tricked Lady Ling into signing that contract, like you said. Lady Ling is so stupid. She can’t even read. She thought it was an apology letter.’”
“Shut up!” Lady Gu panicked.
The others were dumbfounded when they heard those words.
What? Lady Ling had been tricked into signing the contract?
