She was probably trying to trick him, he thought. That’s right, it has to be that.
Second Master Gu tried to convince himself of Gu Ruoyun’s trickery as he tried to calm himself down. He asked with a pale face, "What proof do you have? What right do you have to say that I had killed my own brother? I had so much brotherly love for him, I could never do such a thing!"
"Was that so?"
Gu Ruoyun’s smile grew even more pronounced but her calm eyes remained the same.
"Actually, I had known long ago that my parents’ deaths were related to you but I did not know why. Today, I finally found out that it had been because of my elder brother Gu Shengxiao. Someone wanted him so you killed my parents! Gu Qing, am I right?"
Gu Qing was Second Master Gu’s real name. When he heard what Gu Ruoyun’s had just said, his face changed and his eyes were filled with shock. However, he quickly regained his composure and he retorted while clenching his teeth, "I don’t know what you’re talking about! Gu Ruoyun, you’ve used so many underhanded methods just to cause trouble for the Gu family. How dare you even say such things?! You’re downright shameless!"
As long as he refuses to admit it, even if this she knew all of it, it was useless.
She does not have any proof!
"Gu Qing, did you think that I had waited until this day to expose everything, just because I did not have proof?" Gu Ruoyun raised her eyes and her calm gaze fixed upon Gu Qing’s pale face, "You are wrong, I’ve waited till this day to find out who had really been involved in this, who was guilty, who was innocent and who deserve to be punished. I want to know what sort of deep hatred you had for my father! Proof? Why do I, Gu Ruoyun, need proof to act? Those who need to be killed will be killed! That’s right, I do not have the proof to convince other people but so what? All I need to know is that I will have no regrets!"
Even though the girl’s voice was calm, it was vicious and impacted everyone’s hearts.
Compared to the wretched Gu Qing, it was obvious that Gu Ruoyun’s words were more believable.
So what if there was no proof? If she did things without making her heart feel guilty, there was no need for proof!
"I didn’t know that the Gu family’s Gu Qing was so evil, he had even dared to kill his own elder brother! Tsk, tsk. It’s shameful that such a person would even dare to teach others about respecting their elders, especially since Gu Tian was elder! An elder brother is like a second father, was his way not any different from patricide?"
"Gu Tian was such a genius, sadly he had passed on so young and became a regret in everyone’s hearts. If Gu Tian was still alive, the Gu family would not have ended up in such a state. Also, if Gu Tian was still here, even if Gu Ruoyun was a good-for-nothing, no one would have dared to treat her badly!"
"Hmph, the Gu family had Gu Tian killed. How dare they ask someone to forgive them? I think Gu Ruoyun is right, if one still had their conscience, they would avenge their own parents! How did Gu Qing still have the right to come find her?"
The spectators outside the courtyard start discussing all at once. They looked at Gu Qing’s eyes that had no hint of shame. Some even spat at him while cursing.
It was well known that Gu Tian was a hero in many people’s hearts! But, this hero had trusted his family too much and had ended up being killed by this wretched scum. How could they not feel angry?
"All of you, don’t trust her words, Please don’t trust her. All of her claims are not true, they are false!!!!"
Gu Qing went berserk and his hair came undone and fell into a mess on his face. In the chaos, there was viciousness in his eyes, "Gu Ruoyun, you are only a little b*tch and will die horribly, hahaha! One day, the Gods will deal with you!"
