Chapter 48 (1/2)

Yuan Gun Gun grieved for Xiao Bi. Only a day ago, Xiao Bi was eating nuts inside the pocket of her apron. But a day later, she was holding Xiao Bi's dead body in her hands.

Hao Yan Che couldn't stand Yuan Gun Gun stroking the chipmunk's bloodied body in her hands.

'Let go of it,' Hao Yan Che said.

Yuan Gun Gun's bleach white face looked at Hao Yan Che, but she didn't let go of the chipmunk.

'I said let go of it,' Hao Yan Che said.

Mrs Chen was scared Hao Yan Che would hurt Yuan Gun Gun if Yuan Gun Gun refused to let go of the chipmunk.

Yuan Gun Gun put the dead chipmunk on the floor, she stood and glared at Hao Yan Che.

'Did you do this?' Yuan Gun Gun asked in a trembling voice. 'Yes or no?'

Hao Yan Che looked coldly at Yuan Gun Gun.

'Gun Gun, don't say say nonsense,' Mrs Chen said. She held Yuan Gun Gun's arm. 'Come with aunty Chen.'

Yuan Gun Gun pushed Mrs Chen's hand off her arm, and she looked accusingly at Hao Yan Che.

'Why?' Yuan Gun Gun asked. 'You said you would strangle Xiao Bi to death if you saw Xiao Bi on me again. Why are you such a monster to use such a cruel way to kill Xiao Bi?'

Hao Yan Che silently let Yuan Gun Gun pound his chest and cry.

'You're a monster,' Yuan Gun Gun said. 'I hate you. Give me back my Xiao Bi... answer me, you're a killer. You'll receive your retribution. Why? Why did you have to kill Xiao Bi?'

'Yuan Gun Gun, do you want to die?' Hao Yan Che asked.

Hao Yan Che's violet eyes slowly changed color.

'Yes, I want to die,' Yuan Gun Gun said. 'If you have the guts then kill me. You should strangle me to death like how you strangled Xiao Bi. Killing me is nothing to you. Go ahead and kill me.'

Mrs Chen pulled Yuan Gun Gun away from Hao Yan Che, she slapped Yuan Gun Gun's face and Yuan Gun Gun fell onto the floor.

'Don't forget your status,' Mrs Chen said. 'You're only a maid. How dare you be disrespectful toward young master?'

Yuan Gun Gun was scared of Mrs Chen's cold eyes looking at her.

'Aunty Chen...' Yuan Gun Gun called.

'He Ruo, He Ni, lock her in her bedroom,' Mrs Chen said. 'No one is allowed to let her out without young master's permission.'

He Ruo and He Ni picked up Yuan Gun Gun off the floor, they took her to the pink bed, walked outside and locked her in the pink bedroom.

Outside the pink bedroom, Mrs Chen bowed in front of Hao Yan Che.

'Young master, I'm sorry,' Mrs Chen said. 'I'm a bad trainer.'

Hao Yan Che stared at Mrs Chen for a while then he walked back to the study room.

'He Ruo, He Ni, go bury the chipmunk in the garden,' Mrs Chen said.

In the study room, Yi Tu and Jia Tu reported to Hao Yan Che.
