"Ah--" Gu Yuqing couldn't help screaming as the cold rain water flooded into her mouth, but as soon as she opened her mouth, her whole face was pressed into the accumulated water.
"Cough cough..." The rain mixed with the smell of soil choked her and made her cough. The rough road surface hurt her cheekbones and mandible.
She struggled, but the hand that was pulling her hair down was extremely strong, and no matter how hard she struggled, it was useless.
"Yusheng, Yusheng, save me..." she shouted in panic.
The sound of rain was chaotic and the night was dark. Gu Yusheng sat in the driver's seat, watching the disabled Gu Yuqing being tortured like this, and he couldn't bear it.
"Miss Tangxi..." he stammered.
Tang Xili raised her head, her pupils without any warmth, and gave him a cold glance. She opened her red lips and said, "If you don't want to die, get out now."
Meeting her eyes filled with true murderous intent, Gu Yusheng's heart trembled and he felt fear for no reason.
Not the same, not at all. Her mother was as gentle as water, full of bookish air, and just standing there was like a beautiful poem.
The girl in front of him, although she had a stunning appearance similar to that of a god, did not have the slightest gentle temperament. Her eyes were like those of an emotionless venomous snake, cold and dangerous.
Gu Yusheng felt a chill run down his spine and swallowed his words.
He glanced at Gu Yuqing again and said, "Sister, I'm sorry, I can only take you here. Sin will not disappear with time. People must take responsibility for their mistakes. It's your fault for taking the wrong path..."
Gu Yusheng sighed. He knew that this would be the last time they would meet.
He said this intentionally. He wanted to tell Tang Xili to rest assured that he would not go against her.
But, isn't this what he really thinks?
I have been holding it in my heart for more than 20 years, and I finally said it out today.
In fact, he really hated such a kind and beautiful woman back then, his white moonlight...
Gu Yusheng hardened his heart, stepped on the accelerator and drove away.
Watching the car go away, the headlights gradually became smaller and weaker, and Gu Yuqing froze on the ground.
Her only relative abandoned her just like that.
She couldn't even understand why her brother, a mere Tang Xiyun, had resented her for so many years. They were siblings who grew up relying on each other, and it was she who raised him.
After Gu Yusheng left, Tang Xili stood up and handed Gu Yuqing to Bella and others who got out of the car.
"Take it to Azure Manor."
The night rain washed over everything in the world. Twenty minutes later, Gu Yuqing was brought to the Azure Manor.
The huge manor was lit with lawn lights, reflecting the outline of a European-style villa.
This villa, which has not been inhabited for many years, looks gloomy and desolate in the rain.
Tang Xili grabbed Gu Yuqing by the back of her collar and roughly dragged her to the place where her mother died tragically next to the hallway.
"Gu Yuqing, look, my mother jumped from there, and right under my feet is where she died."
Gu Yuqing's sweater and clothes were soaked by the rain, and the coldness seeped into her bones, making her shiver.
She looked up and followed the direction Tang Xili pointed, looking towards the highest point above the villa's entrance hall.
"That's right, Tang Xiyun jumped down from there."
Perhaps she knew that she would die today, and suddenly, Gu Yuqing was not afraid of anything. She looked into the distance, as if she had passed through the cracks of time and returned to the past.
"It snowed heavily that night. She climbed up in a thin white dress, feeling completely hopeless."
Tang Xili narrowed her eyes and tightened her grip on the back of her collar. "So, you were there that year?"
Gu Yuqing admitted directly, "Yes, I was there that year, right behind her."
She began to recall the past. "Minghe and I have been dating since high school. We had a son, Youxuan, in college and agreed to get married right after graduation. Unexpectedly, after graduation, An Baoshan took a fancy to the research patents of the Tangxi couple and wanted to take them for himself. The Tangxi couple refused to sell them, so the An family set up a trap and made An Minghe marry Professor Tangxi's only daughter..."
"Tang Xiyun was my college classmate and best friend. She was well-read and talented, and the dream girl of all the boys in school. I envied her for her good family background and good looks."
"At first, I didn't hate her because I also worked hard and had a boyfriend who was a rich boy. I was very content."
"But later, when An Minghe first saw Tang Xiyun, that stunned, obsessed look in his eyes deeply hurt me. You tried so hard, so diligently, but it couldn't match someone else's brief appearance. Do you know the despair and unwillingness that comes with that feeling of powerlessness and disparity?"
Tang Xili didn't know, she only knew that human nature was ugly, "So, if you can't achieve it, you have to pull it down."
“Hehe…” Gu Yuqing laughed, her eyes a little abnormal, and she spoke with some force, “Yes, she is so good, she deserves to fall and be stained by the worldly filth.”
"So I drugged her and called An Minghe away on her wedding night. At that time, An Minghe already liked your mother. How could I let him be so affectionate with your mother and then abandon me in the end?"
"Sure enough, your mother slept with an unknown wild man on her wedding night. An Minghe was cuckolded, and love turned to hate. A month later, your mother became pregnant with this wild man's child, and he hated your mother even more."
Recalling something, she curled her lips mysteriously and stared at Tang Xili, "Actually, in the beginning, the only one who abused your mother was An Minghe, but how could I be willing to watch my husband having sex with another woman..."
The meaningful words concealed a despicable calculation. Tang Xili's joints turned pale and she probably understood.
Gu Yuqing was dissatisfied with the bitch An Minghe, so she lobbied An Minghui and Wang Fan to join this inhumane crime.
Tang Xili took a deep breath, the corners of her mouth slowly curled up, and murderous intent gradually rose in her eyes.
Behind her, Yong Zhixu, sensing her aura of destruction, raised his hand and silently handed a sharp knife to her.
He couldn't calm down just by listening to these words, but she had to endure them for sixteen years.
For nearly six thousand days and nights, she was tortured by hatred and could not find relief.
"Kill her and avenge your aunt." The man's dull voice sounded in Tang Xili's ears, with encouragement and support.
Tang Xili tightly grasped the knife he handed her, turned her head, and stared at Gu Yuqing.
Gu Yuqing was completely unaware of her impending death and continued to speak, her voice as vicious as before.
"Some time before your mother died, I secretly replaced her medicine, and her spirit gradually recovered."
She thought of something and laughed proudly and happily. "In fact, because of you, she still had the will to live. She begged me, kneeling at my feet like a dog, begging me to let you go."
Tang Xili didn't know this. "Then why did she lose the will to live?"
