"ah!"
Aunt Yan was so frightened that she was stunned.
She raised her hands, her face pale, and it took her a while to find her voice again.
"Xiaocheng, what are you doing? Put the knife away!"
"Are you kidding me? I'm old and I can't stand being scared by you!"
"Xiaocheng, what's wrong with you? Put down the knife in your hand!" Several neighbors who came out from other houses also vied to persuade Qin Cheng.
Qin Cheng did not move the knife away.
The sinister look in his eyes, mixed with terrifying hostility, poured out as if to turn this small mountain village into a river of blood.
His voice was so cold that it seemed to come from the eighteenth level of hell, making people shudder. "Who saved me during the fire that year?"
Aunt Yan's face became even uglier.
She and several of her neighbors had never expected that Qin Cheng would bring up the matter again after so many years had passed.
They lied back then.
In fact, they all received benefits from Xia Zhi.
They didn't know that something had happened to the Gu family, and they didn't dare to offend the Gu family.
Aunt Yan rolled her eyes, suppressed the fear in her heart and said, "So, Xiaocheng, you lost your temper because of that incident."
"We all saw it back then. It was that girl from the Gu family who risked being burned to death and carried you out of the fire."
Uncle Wang next to him also quickly agreed, "Yes, yes, it's the girl from the Gu family. We saw it clearly."
Qin Cheng keenly caught the flash of guilt in Aunt Yan's eyes.
He suddenly exerted force with his hand, and the sharp knife instantly cut a bloody mark on Aunt Yan's neck.
"Ah! Xiaocheng, calm down! You can't hurt your aunt's life!"
The clear pain from her neck scared Aunt Yan so much that her legs trembled continuously.
The neighbors nearby also rushed to persuade Qin Cheng to calm down.
But Ruan Qinghuan might be dead, how could Qin Cheng remain calm?
The pain and regret in his heart made him wish he could take these people to hell with him!
His voice became even sharper, like a demon that had fallen from the abyss of sin.
"The Gu family is already ruined, and Gu Bingjun and Xia Zhi are already in jail. You won't gain anything by helping them lie, and it will only anger me and hurt your family!"
Qin Cheng turned around and looked at Uncle Wang, who was cowering like a quail, and said, "I heard that your grandson found a good job recently."
"However, I see that you, Uncle Wang, do not want your grandson to live a good life."
"I hope he will be in disgrace and have his future ruined!"
"Xiaocheng, don't be impulsive!"
Uncle Wang has always favored boys over girls and loves his precious grandson the most.
If Qin Cheng beat him up, he might not be so scared, but he couldn't bear to see his precious grandson suffer the slightest injustice.
"I think it's good to be impulsive occasionally."
Under the moonlight, Qin Cheng's ruffian face was filled with murderous intent. "I believe that you all have relatives, descendants, and weaknesses, and you don't want to be without descendants."
"It just so happens that I recently got a good job that allows me to discipline some people."
"Since I came here to check tonight, it proves that I must have gotten most of the truth."
"I'll ask you one last time, who saved me during that fire?"
The threat in Qin Cheng's words was too obvious.
Aunt Yan, Uncle Wang, Grandma Li and others are selfish but timid, and they certainly wouldn't dare to offend the powerful and well-connected Qin family.
By the light of the flashlight, they exchanged glances and decided to tell the truth.
"Back then...the person who saved you back then was not the girl from the Gu family, but...the girl from the Ruan family!"
"The fire was so scary at the time that everyone was afraid of being burned to death and didn't dare to go in to save you."
"That girl from the Ruan family climbs trees and walls all day long, like a naughty monkey. She is fearless and has brute strength. When she heard that there were people in the fire, she rushed in pinching her nose."
"The girl from the Ruan family is younger than you. She was injured while trying to save you, and she also choked on a lot of smoke. She almost passed out just as she carried you out."
"It just so happened that the daughter-in-law of the Gu family came here. When she saw the two of you lying motionless on the ground, she directly dragged the girl from the Ruan family to the woods over there."
"Yes, there were few people living here at that time, and there was still a small forest over there. New houses were only built in recent years."
"The daughter-in-law of the Gu family gave each of us fifty yuan and told us to say that it was her daughter who saved you."
"Fifty yuan is enough for my family to eat for half a year. I agreed on impulse."
…………
Listening to the voices of Aunt Yan, Uncle Wang and others, the last bit of hope in Qin Cheng's heart disappeared completely.
It turned out that it was Ruan Qinghuan who really saved him at the risk of his own life during the fire.
How ridiculous! These people, just for the benefits Xia Zhi gave them, turned right into wrong and made Qin Cheng a fool for half his life.
He also targeted and hurt Ruan Qinghuan time and time again because of the liar Gu Mengwan.
This time, he even let Zhou Han hit her to death.
What on earth did he do!
