Chapter 1319: He Wished He Could Slap Gougou to Death
Xiao Li looked at her disdainfully and said, "Listen, my master saved your brother, initially intending to return him to you after saving you. But since you disdain my master’s help, I’ve already returned your brother to you. From now on, you and my master will have no further ties."
Hearing Xiao Li’s words, Pi Yuhua was filled with regret: "I’m sorry, I’m really sorry! I know I was wrong, Mengyu, I let you down."
Mengyu did indeed save her brother; it was true. She truly had the ability to save them both, but Pi Yuhua betrayed her. Now she regretted it. Even if she hadn’t revealed that Mengyu was Gu Dongxing’s fiancée, if only she had just saved them and escaped the village, it would have been better. But now she’s alone, facing a village that sees her as an enemy, struggling to fend for herself.
Now, who will save their brother and sister?
She wouldn’t mind dying herself, but her brother was born because their mom risked her life. Before dying, she repeatedly asked her to look after her brother. He can’t die. If he does, how will she face her mother in the afterlife?
Xiao Li didn’t care about Pi Yuhua’s fragile emotions. After dropping off Pi Yuhua’s brother, he went to find Gougou.
By that time, Gougou, with Da Hei and Da Bai blocking Zhao Liuping, had already escaped from the house.
However, just as he ran out, someone caught him by the collar and lifted him up: "You dare to run away wearing your brother’s clothes? Watch me beat you to death!"
This man was Zhong Jiaxiang. He was fortunate enough not to participate in the trafficking of women and therefore wasn’t detained by Mengyu for questioning. As such, he had already gone home early to sleep, whether he could sleep or not is another matter.
Upon hearing the gossip from neighbors, he was filled with resentment, annoyed that these people nosed into his affairs. Realizing these talks stemmed from Gougou, he angrily came out from the back door to the front, catching Gougou just as he came out.
This man grabbed Gougou and instead of hitting him immediately, he turned to the gossiping women and said viciously: "Listen up, don’t you all sympathize with this boy? The more you pity him, the more I’ll beat him. From now on, every time I hear you gossip about him, I’ll beat him hard. If he ends up beaten to death, it will be you gossiping women who killed him."
The women were chilled by these words: Zhong Jiaxiang was indeed a wicked man; he did wrong yet wouldn’t allow others to speak.
The most despicable thing was, instead of venting his anger on others, he took it out on his adopted son. If it really happens as he said, they, who initially sympathized with Gougou, would be the ones who caused his death.
Thus, the women hurriedly shut their mouths, with some even covering them, looking fearfully at Zhong Jiaxiang.
Zhong Jiaxiang was very pleased with the effect he created. Turning back, he slapped Gougou’s face with great force.
Just from the force of his motion, one could tell he used considerable strength. A four-year-old child, if hit by him, might lose half his life.
He wished he could kill Gougou with a slap, just to stop the gossip about his family.
The neighboring women saw Zhong Jiaxiang’s demeanor, fearing he really intended to beat Gougou to death. Each of them realized that Zhong Jiaxiang was angry from shame and was taking it out on Gougou, causing them to scream out loud.
Seeing his adoptive father’s expression, Gougou knew he was going to use him as a demonstration. Now he regretted it, had he known this, he wouldn’t have worn the new cotton coat.
Is foster mom still in the village? Will she come to save him?
