Seeing Madam Goodbye, Cuiping burst into tears with excitement, but she was tied up tightly with ropes by the men in black and could not move.
Seeing that Cuiping had no wounds on her body, Gu Qing secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Across from him, the man in black was tall and slender, with half of his face covered. His eyes, as cold as an animal, exuded an aura that made people feel deeply dangerous.
Gu Qing thought for a moment and decided to deal with him first: "According to what you said, my wife is here, when will you release her?"
"Gu Qing, my letter asked you to come alone. Isn't Madam Chen being too unfaithful?"
As he spoke, he looked at the little beggar beside him and grabbed Cuiping's neck.
Cuiping was held in his hand like a lamb to be slaughtered. The fear on her face made Gu Qing feel cold.
“Wait!”
Gu Qing was a little nervous, and immediately calmed down and said: "This girl is not mine, why she appeared here, I don't know."
Gu Qing and the little beggar looked at each other. She did not expose herself, nor did she pester him like before.
The man in black's eyes moved slightly.
Seeing this, Gu Qing knew there was still a glimmer of hope, and continued, "You asked me to come alone, not for this lady."
"It's because of Chen Zhizhou."
"Hahahaha, you are indeed a smart woman."
The man in black laughed loudly and explained his purpose directly: "That's right."
"Come here, and I'll let this girl go."
He pointed at Gu Qing with his other hand.
Gu Qing didn't move, and looked up to meet his cold eyes: "What if you regret it? Besides, I am powerless and can't run away."
"Release Cuiping first, and then I'll let you do whatever you want with me."
Cui Ping heard this and shook her head desperately, tears almost streaming down her face. She squeezed out two hoarse sounds from her strangled neck: "No... No! Madam, you can't do that."
The little beggar on the side had his arms folded across his chest, seemingly watching the show.
From the beginning, Gu Qing had already found that this little girl was too strange. She must have some martial arts skills, otherwise how could she block the sharp arrow with her bare hands.
Furthermore, the man in black seemed to be quite afraid of her.
In her previous life, she accidentally heard Chen Zhizhou say that a person with great martial arts skills can detect the other person's level without taking any action.
Perhaps, the little girl she saved by accident would become a turning point in the desperate situation.
"Madam, you are indeed powerless, but the little girl beside you is no ordinary person."
The man in black glanced at her with a hint of fear, then said, "Let her cut off her own hands, and I will release your maid."
Gu Qing gritted his teeth.
This person is really going too far!
"I don't know her, you're forcing me. How about I let her leave and we can talk later?"
Gu Qing was mediating with the man in black, while the little girl beside him seemed impatient.
Her messy hair fluttered in the wind, and the air pressure around her was extremely low. She said word by word, "You want me to cut off my own hands? You are the first person in this world to do that."
The little beggar lowered his head and chuckled, his thin shoulders shaking constantly, as if he had heard some very funny joke.
"Mrs. Chen, how about I return a favor to you now?"
As soon as the words fell, Cuiping screamed in a flash, followed by a blanket of blood, forming a waterfall that splashed all around Gu Qing.
But after the blood rain, there was not a speck of dirt on her body.
Gu Qing was stunned.
Neither in her past life nor in this life, she had ever seen such a horrifying scene, and Cuiping was completely frightened to death after just one look.
The little beggar stood beside the body of the man in black, lowered his head, licked the bloody corner of his mouth, and sheathed his knife.
Gu Qing came back to his senses, stumbled two steps, and quickly calmed down: "Who are you?"
What she feared more than the man in black was the harmless-looking little girl in front of her.
No wonder the Beggar Gang elder reminded me to be more careful just now.
She is far more dangerous than she appears.
The little girl put the soft knife into her waist and smiled innocently and playfully: "Don't be afraid, Madam, I won't hurt you."
"You helped me, so I want to repay you. Also, I'll find a way to return your money."
Gu Qing was silent for a moment, then helped Cuiping up and walked out carefully on the blood-free ground. "I've already told you that this is not necessary. Since you are such a powerful martial artist, there is always a place for you to go in the vast world of Jianghu."
"I can't go!"
The little girl screamed with desperate hysterics.
Gu Qing subconsciously stopped and looked back at her curiously. He saw the little girl wiping the tears from the corners of her eyes. She looked as pitiful as an ordinary girl.
"Why?"
Gu Qing didn't know why he asked this question.
"I killed the Beggars' Sect members. They were so numerous and powerful that I couldn't escape."
In just one sentence, Gu Qing knew the whole story.
No wonder this girl insisted on saving her herself, but the Beggars' Sect was not someone she could afford to offend.
"You just saved me and my maid, so that's my repayment. As for you, I won't stay by my side, and I can't afford to offend the Beggars' Sect."
Gu Qing rejected her request.
"No! You are from the Chen family. The leader of the Beggars' Sect was once a close friend of Lord Chen, so they didn't bother you. You are the only one in the world who can save me!"
After the little girl finished speaking, she tapped her feet lightly, flew to her knees in front of Gu Qing, and used the same trick as before, hugging her legs tightly.
She couldn't move.
Gu Qing tried to lift her legs, but nothing moved. She looked unhappy: "What do you want?"
"Even so, you just killed someone so cruelly, and your personality is so stubborn and eccentric, do you think I would keep you around?"
