Chapter 280 Terrifying, can't even pay the interest?
Amei seemed surprised that Gu Mingxia would ask such a pointed question. Staring into her eyes, Amei smiled charmingly after a long while.
"Why would I hate you? I've watched you grow up, after all. How could I hate you?"
Gu Mingxia was very puzzled by Amei's words. She frowned and stared at Amei in confusion.
"If you didn't hate him, why did you plot to kill Adong? Do you know how sunny and kind he was? How could you be so heartless as to let him die?"
"Why can't he die? Why can Nanlan have all the things I can't have so easily?"
Amei spoke these words casually, completely disregarding the fact that her resentment had ruined Gu Mingxia's family, and she didn't think there was anything wrong with what she did.
"Nan Lan is just a weak woman who hides and cries. What right does she have to possess so many wonderful things? She has Gu Huaikun's love, and you and Gu Mingdong, these filial and obedient children. And what about me? I can only exist as an appendage to her personality forever. Because I cannot exist independently, I cannot have my own feelings and children. Since I cannot have them, why should Nan Lan have them? What I don't have, she cannot have either!"
"Is this your reason for having her fake her death and plotting to kill A-Dong?"
"Isn't this enough?"
Gu Mingxia was overcome with anger. She suddenly stood up and pointed a trembling finger at Amei. She never thought that there was such a woman in the world. Just because of jealousy, she was able to do such a thing. Her family had become like this because of her appearance!
"I wish I could kill you! Do you even know that because of your selfish thoughts, my whole family has been ruined!"
If it weren't for Amei's appearance, Gu Mingxia would still have a happy family now. But because of her appearance, her family fell apart, and she even plotted to kill her beloved younger brother. All of this was because of her jealousy!
What a terrifying woman she was! Gu Mingxia felt her body trembling uncontrollably, but Amei only glanced at her with a mocking look before lowering her head.
"Miss Gu, if you kill me, your child will bear the stigma of being the son of a murderer. Are you willing to do that?"
These words successfully calmed Gu Mingxia down from her anger. Yes, if she really did kill her, then when her daughter was born, she would be burdened with the identity of a murderer's daughter. No... this was not something she wanted to see. She already had no complete family, and her daughter absolutely could not repeat her past mistakes!
"You'll get your comeuppance!"
"Really? I have nothing, so what retribution am I afraid of? But you should think it over carefully. This body is still your mother's body after all. Even if there is retribution, it will be on Nan Lan."
"Letting you appear is the greatest retribution for Nanlan!"
Gu Mingxia threw down those words harshly, stood up, and walked quickly out. Amei squinted at her back, and after a long while, a faint smile appeared on her lips. The smile lacked some of the charm and allure, but instead contained something profound.
After leaving Lanxinyuan, Gu Mingxia had Song Jia drive her back to the Gu family villa.
"Goddess, you look terrible. Did that woman say something to you?"
"I'm fine, you just focus on driving."
Gu Mingxia looked out the window and waved to Song Jia. Realizing that Gu Mingxia didn't want to talk, Song Jia didn't ask any further and just focused on driving his car.
The ever-changing scenery outside the window reminded Gu Mingxia of what Amei had said. The more she thought about it, the angrier she became. She had never seen such a shameless and selfish person, especially a woman.
"Song Jia, how can there be such a selfish woman in this world? Just because of her selfishness and resentment, she can plot someone's death without even blinking an eye?"
Song Jia wasn't stupid. As soon as she heard Gu Mingxia's words, she knew that she was referring to Amei and Gu Mingdong's affair. She frowned slightly, thought for a moment, and then spoke up.
"Everyone has their own choices, and everyone will pay the corresponding price for their choices. Why should a goddess worry about these things?"
"How can I not think about it? Do you know that the woman named Amei is a split personality of my mother? Her body is still my mother's. And this is the woman who orchestrated Adong's death. She is also the one who separated my mother and father, causing our family to be separated for so long. Even now, my father being fed Deep Blue by Axin was ordered by her. Don't you think this kind of woman is too terrifying?"
"Why...why? Even if it's a split personality, it can't last forever. Your mother had every opportunity to contact you!"
"Because she wouldn't allow it. In the end, the reason why Amei can be so arrogant and unscrupulous today is because my mother spoils her. If she had even a little bit of assertiveness, this situation wouldn't have happened!"
Gu Mingxia said coldly. Her feelings for Nan Lan had been worn away by Amei. She had always believed that no matter how strong Amei was, she was just a split personality and could not completely control Nan Lan's actions. But if Nan Lan hadn't indulged her, how could she have become the dominant personality?
"Goddess, don't think too much about it, things will always work out!"
More than a month passed in the blink of an eye, and Gu Mingxia was still holed up in the Gu family, thinking about how to deal with Amei. Although it was Nanlan's body, if her mind was already dead, was this person still the mother she used to love the most?
"Goddess, Ah Huo is here to see you."
In a daze, Gu Mingxia thought of having Ah Huo lend money to Bai Zixuan at exorbitant interest rates. She nodded, went to the bathroom to freshen up, and then went downstairs.
"Miss Gu, it's been a long time! You're still as beautiful as ever!"
Ah Huo smiled and said flattering words. Song Jia couldn't help but admire him. There was a reason why he could be a heartbreaker. Even though Gu Mingxia looked so haggard and had such heavy dark circles under her eyes, he could still say she was beautiful. Song Jia admitted that he couldn't compare to him in this respect.
"Did something go wrong with Bai Zixuan?"
"Yes, today is the first month since I lent him the money. Who knew I would get a call from him first thing this morning, asking if I could postpone the interest payment for two days? How could I make that decision? Of course I had to come to you, Miss Gu!"
He can't even pay the interest after only a month? This is really beyond Gu Mingxia's expectations!
Holding her water glass and looking out the window, Gu Mingxia frowned and pondered for a while before slowly speaking.
"Then give him another two months' grace. If he can't pay the interest for three consecutive months, then come back to me!"
