“I heard that you borrowed money for the girl’s treatment.” The old master rubbed the teacup with his fingers. “The Meng family said you borrowed quite a huge sum. You entered the entertainment industry to do ch.o.r.eography when you were 14-year-old for her sake, right?”

Gu Mang remained silent.

The old master sounded lovable. “Gu Mang, it’s nice to be compa.s.sionate but you’re biting off more than you can chew. That girl is, after all, an outsider. We’re your family. You have so many connections and you shouldn’t have used them on matters like that.”

Gu Mang stared at the old man the whole time and after hearing his words the corners of her lips twitched. “Grandpa, we all have a part to play in Jinyang’s current predicament.”

Everyone turned to look at each other in shock. What did this have to do with them?

Gu Mang crossed her legs and got comfortable. Her eyes were cold and untamed. “When I was five-years old Uncle did not live as comfortably as now and Lei Cong’s birthday was celebrated in my house. It was pouring heavily that afternoon and everyone was celebrating and taking family photos. n.o.body picked me up. Jinyang came to give me an umbrella and met that piece of sh*t on the way.”

Meng Jinyang’s family was not well to do so Meng Jinyang did not attend kindergarten. Her family thought that she would just attend preschool for a year at six years old and head straight to primary school when she was seven years old.

Gu Mang would pa.s.s by Meng Jinyang’s house on her way to kindergarten.

Meng Jinyang would stand on her doorstep every morning to watch her go to school.

It was raining that day and she knew that Gu Mang did not bring her umbrella so she went to fetch one for her.

The old master’s eyes froze and it seemed like he did not know the story behind it.

Breaking into a smile that was not quite a smile, Gu Mang’s slanted eyes appeared wicked.

Everyone present feared Gu Mang’s expression. It carried an unspeakable sense of evil as though she would punch them at any moment.

They would never forget Gu Mang’s expression while she smashed the middle-aged man’s head repeatedly with a brick. The ruthlessness sent s.h.i.+vers down their spines.
