Chapter Twelve: Sense of Crisis



Li was surprised that Gu Sang could say such words so forcefully. She widened her eyes, took a deep breath, and grasped Gu Sang's hand.

This is... absolutely terrifying.

Gu Dekang and Gu Yingfu exchanged a glance, both seeing the shock in each other's eyes.

This little girl certainly dares to speak her mind!

And most importantly, if something really goes wrong, then the Gu family can forget about getting away with it.

"Boss, stop!"

How could someone as intelligent as Gu Dekang not understand the key point?

He took a deep breath and told the boss to stop, which could be seen as an attempt to end the situation and act as a good-natured patriarch.

"Da Ya, think carefully about whether what you did was right or wrong. Have you lived up to our expectations of you? And... you'd better remember this: no matter what happens, you can't escape the word 'Gu'..."

"Alright."

Gu Sang was too lazy to listen to these high-sounding words.

What's the point of saying all this?

Isn't it all just to make yourself comfortable?

Besides, do you think it's all over with just a few words?

The matter has not been resolved. How could Gu Sang not know that?

Thinking of all this, Gu Sang took a deep breath and then said, "I can overlook other things, but this is the only thing that is not negotiable. I don't care what you think or how you think the third branch is easy to bully, but remember, I will not give you that chance."

After saying that, Gu Sang gently took Li's hand.

"Although my mother is timid by nature, with me by her side, I, Gu Sang, will never allow anyone to bully the third branch of the family again, understand?"

These words were both a statement of facts and a warning to them to stop their scheming.

Gu Sang had a hundred ways to deal with them, but at this moment she was just too lazy to bother with such things.

When Gu Dekang heard these words, he frowned slightly, his expression clearly showing displeasure.

Because in Gu Dekang's view, the matter was not like that at all.

She thought for a moment, then said, "Da Ya, you don't need to act tough in front of this old man. You can see clearly what's right and wrong in this matter. This is your fault. Your grandmother's injury is because of you, so you have to pay this money!"

Who could be content without drinking a drop of blood from the third branch of the family?

Gu Yingfu also gave a cold laugh, his eyes filled with disdain as he looked at Li Shi. After a long while, he said, "Don't you know what kind of person you are? Now you dare to be so unfilial to your parents here. Aren't you afraid that your third son's remains will come to you at night and condemn you as an unfilial daughter-in-law!"

As Gu Yingfu spoke, Gu Sang clearly felt Li Shi tremble, and then her face quickly turned pale.

The third son, Gu Ying'an, has always been a source of pain for Li.

At that instant, a cold glint flashed in Gu Sang's eyes.

"Don't curse someone's mother, don't hit someone's shortcomings"—these are the most basic manners. Gu Yingfu clearly knows what Li Shi cares about most, yet he still dares to provoke Li Shi at this time. It seems he really has bullied the third branch of the family to death, doesn't he?

Gu Sang handed Li Shi's hand, her gaze towards Gu Yingfu filled with icy coldness.

"What...what are you going to do!"

Gu Yingfu was stunned for a moment, not quite understanding what the little girl was going to do. Moreover, the way Da Ya looked at him was so intimidating that it made him feel nervous. Even Gu Yingfu, who was quite old, was so frightened that he pursed his lips and looked extremely nervous.

Gu Sang merely gave a cold smile and then nodded.

"Is this never going to end? Do you feel a sense of accomplishment in bullying us orphans and widows?"

"Can't you speak properly, girl?"

When Yang came out of Zhang's room and heard these words, she immediately became unwilling. She then stepped forward and looked at Gu Sang with a hint of dislike and disgust.

"What do you mean we bullied you orphans and widows? Without us raising the third branch of the family and giving you food all these years, you would have starved to death long ago! What, now that you have a way out, you're denying everything we've done for you? Da Ya, you can't be heartless, you know?"

"Otherwise, you'll be punished by heaven!"

Yang stood there, looking at them with disdain, as if she looked down on the matter.

But do you really think that Yang had nothing to do with this?

Gu Sang was simply too lazy to bother with these vampires, but her original idea was completely overturned at this moment. Gu Sang realized that the Gu family was not taken seriously by a simple reprimand, and if you didn't make them feel pain, they would still cause trouble in the future.

Having figured all this out, Gu Sang no longer intended to save face for them.

So when Gu Sang heard Yang's words, she just smiled coldly. After a while, she raised her hand, gently smoothed the hem of her clothes, and then said with a smile, "As for other things, I won't argue with you. What you want to do is none of my business. But if you're so shameless, then I don't need to care so much."

These words made the Gu family members' brows twitch slightly, and for a moment they couldn't figure out what Gu Sang meant.

"you……"

Gu Sang smiled slightly.

"Don't worry, I'll explain it to you step by step."

This girl doesn't seem easy to deal with. Before, none of them took all of this seriously, thinking that the third branch of the family was isolated and helpless. Even if they were punished or bullied, the third branch would have no one to complain to, so they just went ahead and abused them.

But they never imagined that such a tragedy would befall their granddaughter, whom they had buried alive.

Gu Sang glanced at them, already having made up her mind.

"You want to settle scores? Well, let's settle them now. Let's settle the score about your Gu family conspiring to bury your granddaughter alive. Ghost marriages are something you can't touch, but you still did it anyway. So you were wrong. Since you knew it was wrong and still did it, shouldn't you be punished?"

Gu Sang's words were very reasonable and well-founded. After she finished speaking, she blinked her eyes slightly, looking completely innocent.

The Gu family and others were also dumbfounded at this moment.

They never expected things to turn out this way. They had originally planned to scheme against Gu Sang, but now it seemed that this brat was turning around and threatening them.

this……

Zhang and Xie exchanged a glance, both sensing that something seemed amiss.
