Chapter 194 - Expensive Jinchuan Grass

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

The cold muzzle of the pistol was pressed against Meng Wan’s head, making her tremble.

Gu Zheng’s eyes were deep, and he exuded the domineering aura of a king. His voice was cold as he said, “Miss Meng, I don’t want to hear you say the word b*tch again.”

He… was actually pointing a pistol at her?

Madam Meng screamed in shock. Had Gu Zheng gone mad?

Gu Zheng was calm as he said slowly, “Miss Meng, if you continue to insult my wife, don’t blame me for being nasty.”

Meng Wan’s face was pale. She was so scared that she knelt on the ground.

Madam Meng quickly pulled Meng Wan up and said in a trembling voice, “Young Master Gu, Wan Wan doesn’t know how to keep her mouth shut. You must not blame her…”

Right now, Gu Zheng was in a fit of anger. Madam Meng immediately changed her way of addressing him and addressed him as ‘Young Master Gu’ because Gu Zheng was capable of doing anything. It was very likely that he would beat Meng Wan to death in a fit of anger.

Even if he really killed Meng Wan, the Meng family would not dare to pursue the matter. They could only grit their teeth and swallow it.

Madam Meng pulled Meng Wan along. “Wan Wan, I’ll bring you home now. Let’s go!”

Gu Zheng was simply too scary!

If it were not for the fact that she coveted the Gu family’s business and wealth, how could she bear to let Wan Wan marry such a vicious lunatic?!

It was his honor that Wan Wan had taken a liking to him, but he actually despised Wan Wan and even pointed a pistol at her?

Gu Zheng put away his pistol, his eyes cold. “Song Shijing, drive the two back and tell Old Master Meng what happened today.”

Song Shijing agreed. “Yes.”

Meng Wan and Madam Meng were escorted out. Gu Zheng felt his eyes sting, then his vision turned blurry.

At this moment, the woman’s slightly cold fingers touched his forehead as she massaged it gently.

Qiao Xi frowned. “Are your eyes feeling uncomfortable?”

He slowly opened his eyes, and the scene in front of him became clearer. His gaze also became a little gentler. “Mrs. Gu, don’t be angry anymore. Those herbs…”

Gu Zheng did not know what kind of medicinal herb she had planted, but judging from how she took care of them every day, even if they were weeds, it was something that Mrs. Gu spent a lot of time on.

Qiao Xi blinked. “I won’t let Meng Wan off so easily!”

“Many people can’t buy these herbs with money, yet Meng Wan destroyed more than 100 of my herbs in one go. How can I let her off so easily?”

Soon, the Meng family would take the initiative to visit her. At that time, the Meng family would definitely kneel down and beg her.

Over the years, the Meng family had plundered countless amounts of money from the Gu family. Gu Zheng did not hold it against them, but she had always been petty. Of course, she would not let the Meng family bully her husband.

Old Master Meng looked kind on the surface, but the Meng family had done a lot of evil deeds in the dark. His hands were stained with blood.

It was said that Old Master Meng was sick and could only be treated with Jinchuan Grass. Hence, the Meng family was looking for that herb everywhere. Just now, Meng Wan destroyed more than 100 Jinchuan Grass.

Unfortunately, without Jinchuan Grass, how was she going to catch Gu Zhengzhi’s eye?

Qiao Xi was filled with rage. She looked at the herbs that had yet to mature and picked up her phone to send a message to someone.

Gu Zheng kept his eyes fixed on the herbs on the ground. He picked one up and sniffed it.

Mrs. Gu… was really not simple!

…

In the Meng family.

When Meng Wan returned home, she cried and screamed. Madam Meng’s heart ached so much that she kept crying.

Old Master Meng’s expression was calm as he asked kindly, “Assistant Song, what did Wan Wan do wrong? The Meng family’s cars…”

“The Meng family’s cars have been destroyed.” Song Shijing’s voice was cold. “Miss Meng deliberately destroyed the herbs our young madam planted and even insulted her. She even threatened to kill her. On account of our past relationship with the Meng family, our young master spared Miss Meng this time. If this happens again, be prepared to bear the consequences!”

Old Master Meng’s expression changed drastically.

Song Shijing’s words made Old Master Meng’s heart tremble. He knew Gu Zheng very well. Letting Meng Wan off this time meant that he had returned the Meng family’s former act of kindness.

From today onward, the Gu and Meng families would no longer have any ties!

Old Master Meng looked exhausted. Song Shijing had just left when he raised his hand and slapped Meng Wan.

“Dad!” Master Meng cried out in surprise.

Meng Wan’s face was filled with shock, then she burst into tears. “Grandpa! Why did you hit me? I was angry with Qiao Xi, yet you still hit me when I got home? I don’t want to live anymore!”

“Qiao Xi! Your mind is always filled with Qiao Xi!” Old Master Meng’s expression was gloomy.

“Grow a brain! After what you did today, you’ve completely exhausted the Gu family’s gratitude toward us. From today onward, the Meng family will no longer be able to get any benefits from Gu Zheng. Did you think that our Gu family was able to become a first-rate family because of our own efforts?”

It was because of the Gu family!

If it were not for the fact that he had saved Old Master Gu back then, how could the Meng family live such grand lives?
