Chapter 750: Chapter 750: Prolonging Life for Three Days
Shopkeeper Gu sneered repeatedly, not bothering to defend against Ms. Xin’s attack.
He dodged to the side and pulled her hand in one swift motion. Before Ms. Xin could react, his hand had already struck the numbing acupoint on her wrist.
Ms. Xin’s wrist went numb, and she could no longer hold her soft sword. It slipped from her grip and fell to the side of the road.
“Little Cui’er, are you so eager to throw yourself into my arms?”
Shopkeeper Gu laughed uproariously and directly wrapped his arms around Ms. Xin’s waist, embracing her tightly.
“Let go! Let go of me, you bastard!”
Ms. Xin struggled frantically, but her hands were no match for him. Now with only one hand, how could she possibly overpower him?
“Little beauty, there’s no use struggling. To be honest, that bastard Di Yelei nearly wiped out all of my men, and I barely escaped with my life. I’m furious, but you ran into my hands. If I don’t take my anger out on you, who can I take it out on? Huh!”
His thirty thousand soldiers were either dead or had fled!
Nowadays, only these defeated remnants remained by his side, so how could he not be angry!
“What? You mean, you fought a battle with Third Brother?”
Ms. Xin caught the most critical point. Boss Gu had fought a battle with Di Yelei and had barely escaped here, did that mean Third Brother and the others were in the vicinity at the moment?
Her joyous expression on her face only served to infuriate Shopkeeper Gu even more!
He suddenly reached out, grabbed Ms. Xin’s chin forcefully, and his grip was so strong that she felt as if her entire jaw was numb. Tomorrow, it would definitely be bruised.
“That’s right! Not only did we fight a battle, but what about it? Are you happy to see my men defeated, huh?”
The more he spoke, the harder he pressed.
Ms. Xin struggled desperately, trying to push away his hand.
“Let go… let… ”
Only when he saw Ms. Xin’s face turn an unhealthy shade of purple did he violently let go of her.
“Humph! You damn whore, I’ll let you gloat a little while longer. Just wait, you’ll get what’s coming to you soon. Take her away!”
–
Liu Sisi sent Zhang Peng away and barely had time to breathe when Ms. Gao, looking panicked, rushed out from the inner room.
“Madam! This is bad, Madam. Old Master… Old Master, he… ”
Had something happened to Father-in-law?
With a sinking heart, Liu Sisi no longer cared about anything else and hurried into the inner room, lifting her skirt hem as she ran.
Granny Hu hurriedly greeted her, “Madam, here you are. Please look at Old Master. I’m afraid he… might not make it.”
“Don’t panic! Have you sent for a doctor?”
Liu Sisi reassured everyone as she rushed into the inner chamber.
In the inner room, Ms. Zhao was sobbing loudly at the head of Elderly Mr. Di’s bed while Di Ah-bao, Xiao Feng, and other young members of the family knelt on the ground, also crying inconsolably.
Not bothering with the weeping crowd, she cautiously reached out to touch Elderly Mr. Di’s nose wings. After a while, she placed her fingertip directly on the large artery in his neck, and after another silent pause, she suddenly looked up.
