“Or else what will you do?” Gu Yaotian interrupted her with a gloomy face, “Do you still want to kill us?”
Rongshu wrinkled her eyebrows, then smiled again, “Not so much to kill you, after all, it would get my hands dirty, but it’s not impossible to kill you in other ways, Gu Yaotian.”
The first thing I know about you is that you let Rong Yuan and Li Xiuzhi poison my father, and I know about the other things you’ve done.
Hearing these words, Gu Yaotian’s pupils suddenly shrank, and his face went white.
He looked at Rong Shu in shock, as if asking how did you know.
Rong Shu only smiled coldly and did not reply, carrying the mugwort cake and leaving the dim sum shop.
Gu Yaotian looked at her back, his eyes ghastly.
A few years ago, he had bribed Li Xiuzhi and her daughter to poison Rong Hao, a matter he had done in a very secretive manner, not even telling anyone around him.
He had thought that no one would ever know about it in his life.
But never did he expect that, having first given him a hard slap on the wrist, Rong Shu would actually know about it.
Did that fool Rong Yuan tell her?
No, it shouldn’t be.
If Rong Yuan had told her that she had poisoned Rong Hao, Rong Shu would definitely not have let Rong Yuan go.
So Rong Yuan wouldn’t really be so stupid as to be so brainless.
Someone else must have told Rong Shu.
As for who it was
Gu Yaotian’s eyes narrowed, and his eyes were quenched with poisonous intent.
This person, he would definitely find out and get rid of him, otherwise he would become a big problem in his heart.
“Old Gu, what are you thinking about? Your face is so horrible!” Madam Gu looked at Gu Yaotian’s frightening face and was shocked in her heart.
Gu Yaotian’s eyes flickered, converging the gloom in his heart and returning to the calm look he had at the beginning, shaking his head at her, “It’s nothing.”
Seeing that he was not saying anything, Mrs. Gu did not ask any more questions and lowered her eyes and said in a despondent tone, “Yao Tian, how come there is no red mole on Rongshu’s wrist?”
“What do you mean?” Gu Yaotian frowned at her, “Do you really want Rong Shu to be a manga love?”
“No, no, no.” Mrs. Gu shook her head and waved her hand repeatedly, “Of course not, it’s just that Rongshu is too much like Man’er, the date she was picked up just happened to be the third day Man’er was carried away by Rong Hao, and the contours of Rongshu’s face that resembles her mother-in-law’s, as well as the scar on her wrist in the same place as the red mole, it’s hard for me not to suspect that she’s not Man’er, and most importantly did you just see it? She loves mugwort cake!”
She grabbed Gu Yaotian’s collar, her face raised in a smile, and said excitedly, “She loves mugwort cake, it has a bitter taste, and people are not used to this taste, so few people love it. I have a strange feeling in my heart, more or less.”
There was even, somewhat inexplicably, a sense of snickering.
Looking at Madam Gu with a smile on her face, Gu Yaotian’s eyes sank.
When it came to Rong Shu, she was so happy.
Did she really not want Rong Shu to be a manga love?
Gu Yaotian sighed and patted the back of Mrs. Gu’s hand, “Okay, let’s not talk about this, no matter how much you say, Rongshu is still not Maneki. I don’t know why you are so obsessed with the idea that Rongshu could be Man’er, so obsessed that you forget that our Man’er has returned to us.
Mrs. Gu didn’t say anything, she was just silent.
Of course she knew she was wrong to behave like this.
But for some reason, when she saw Rong Shu, she inexplicably wanted to care, wanted to think of Rong Shu as Mane’s side.
Sometimes, she even felt that Rongshu was really more like Mangyi than the current Mangyi.
There were so many things about Rongshu that resembled Manlove, the time she appeared, her tastes, her mother-in-law’s face, her wrist features.
And the Manifestation beside her seemed to have none of it.
She’d said last time that she was good to Manlove, but couldn’t give her fondness to him.
She knew it was wrong, and she knew she should correct it.
But after so long, she still couldn’t manage to truly love Man-En, which made her distressed as well.
Seeing that Madam Gu did not say anything, Gu Yaotian was not sure if she had listened to his words.
He rubbed his brow, his heart a little tired, “Well, forget about that, we came here to buy food, since there are no more mugwort cakes, let’s buy something else, we’ve come here, it’s not good to return empty-handed.”
Mrs. Gu squeezed the corners of her mouth, “Good.”
On the other hand, Rong Shu had already returned to her car.
She left the mugwort cake on the pa*senger side, and leaned back on the back of the driver’s seat, her eyes slightly closed, her emotions around her were low and depressed, and in her mind, she kept on recalling the face of Mrs. Gu when she looked at herself, so excited that her eyes were red and shining.
At that time, Madam Gu looked at herself in a very strange way, with excitement, joy, or love.
It was a look that shook her heart and soul and at the same time caused her to panic.
She didn’t know exactly what Madam Gu meant at that time, but she knew that Madam Gu would be like that all because she had taken a look at the scar on her wrist.
Thinking, Rongshu opened her eyes and turned the headlights on, then lifted her hand and looked at the still new scar on her wrist, her eyes flickering slightly.
What, exactly, did this scar mean to Madam Gu, that she had suddenly changed her attitude towards herself so drastically?
Rongshu’s heart was thumping and beating fast, and there was something in her heart that was crying out for an answer.
But soon, there was forcibly cut off and suppressed by her.
She rubbed her cheeks so hard that her makeup was blurred and her face was fleshily sore before she put her hands down.
One must not think about it, one must not think about it.
Thinking about it would surely become horrible, so horrible that, she couldn’t accept it at all.
So she absolutely must not think about it.
Rongshu bit her lower lip.
There was still Mrs. Gu, and she couldn’t think about it anymore.
This time, Mrs. Gu was really affecting her mood too much.
Therefore, she could not think about Madam Gu anymore, and even more so, she could not care about Madam Gu, otherwise the result would become just as terrible.
Calm down, she must be calm.
Rongshu squeezed her palms tightly, forcing herself not to think too much and to calm down.
But after a long time, although Rongshu was calm on the outside, her heart was still so heavy.
Until she returned to Repulse Bay, her mood had not yet recovered.
When Fu Jingting returned, it was almost twelve o’clock.
He had thought that Rongshu was already asleep at this time, so when he entered the door, he moved very gently, just in case the noise would be too loud and reach the bedroom, waking her up.
It was not until Fu Jingting had changed his shoes and turned on the light in the living room that he was startled to see Rong Shu sitting on the sofa with her head slightly bowed.
But Fu Jingting quickly adjusted his mind and recovered.
He walked over with his long and slender legs, his brow frowning slightly and his voice holding a hint of displeasure, displeased but at the same time unabashedly concerned, “Why are you still awake at this late hour?”
Rongshu didn’t answer, as if she hadn’t heard, and her person was also motionless.
Seeing this, Fu Jingting stopped pulling his tie and looked down at her carefully.
Only then did he realise that she was actually drifting off and staring!
