Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Just as Gu Mei was about to respond to Chu He, Gu Qingcheng’s voice came from the screen, drawing her attention.

On the screen, Gu Qingcheng stood under the camera, staring straight at it. As their eyes met, Gu Mei felt a chill down her spine and a sense of dread in her heart.

Gu Qingcheng’s gaze was icy cold and sharp like a knife, piercing her heart as if to shatter it.

“B*tch,” she spat with hatred. “Someday, I will gouge out Gu Qingcheng’s eyes and feed them to the dogs.”

Chu He, looking at Gu Qingcheng, felt a sense of satisfaction mixed with fear from staring into Gu Qingcheng’s eyes.

“You said you couldn’t kill Gu Qingcheng, right? Then you definitely can’t gouge out her eyes,” Chu He reminded Gu Mei. “Give me a definitive answer, can you kill Gu Qingcheng or not?”

“I can’t,” Gu Mei confirmed to Chu He. “Like I said, if I could have killed Gu Qingcheng, I would have done it long ago.”

Chu He understood that Gu Mei was just boasting.

“Xiao Mei, you only get one chance,” she reminded Gu Mei. “This time, you must kill Huo Sicheng. After you marry Qi Shaoze, then you can kill Gu Qingcheng. If you fail, both of us will be doomed.”

“I know,” Gu Mei stared intently at Gu Qingcheng. “Mom, don’t worry, I won’t disappoint you this time.”

Chu He nodded and pointed at Gu Qingcheng, “Xiao Mei, look at the brazen way Gu Qingcheng is acting, so fearless even when kidnapped by us. Such a crazy woman who fears neither heaven nor earth must die.’

Gu Mei ignored Chu He, her gaze fixated on Gu Qingcheng’s face.

She had always despised Gu Qingcheng for taking the title of the Gu family’s young lady, which she believed rightfully belonged to her.

She hated Gu Qingcheng even more for her beauty and successful career, and for having the inheritance left by their grandfather. Every time Gu Qingcheng appeared at social events, introducing herself as the young lady of the Gu family, other ladies would greet her with fake smiles, while their eyes were full of contempt for Gu Mei.

Some bold young ladies even mocked her to her face, saying she wasn’t the real young lady of the Gu family, but just a secondary daughter, even suggesting she was born from an affair.

Her identity was trampled upon by everyone, overshadowed by Gu Qingcheng’s brilliance. She had always lived in Gu Qingcheng’s shadow and loathed her deeply.

Initially, she had snatched Qin Jun from Gu Qingcheng, causing Gu Qingcheng great sorrow. But then, Gu Qingcheng married Huo Sicheng and became Qin Jun’s aunt by marriage, humiliating him.

Previously, she mocked Gu Qingcheng for marrying Huo Sicheng, a disabled man, destined to be a widow for life. But now, she was insanely jealous of Gu Qingcheng for having such a perfect husband, unable to bear Gu Qingcheng’s success and happy marriage.

Gu Qingcheng must die, she must!

“Xiao Mei? Mom is talking to you,” Chu He nudged Gu Mei, breaking her fixation. “Why are you staring blankly at Gu Qingcheng?”

Gu Mei’s thoughts were interrupted by Chu He. She looked at Chu He and said, “Uh… I’m not staring blankly. Let Gu Qingcheng rant. I deliberately turned the air conditioning to the lowest setting. Look how little she is wearing. If we can’t slap her face, we can torment her with the cold, freezing her to death. Soon, she won’t be able to scream anymore.”

Chu He, seeing Gu Qingcheng rubbing her arms from the cold, smiled maliciously.

“Freeze that bitch Gu Qingcheng to death!” she cursed.

Gu Mei, watching Gu Qingcheng shiver from the cold, felt a sense of satisfaction and vindication after being tormented by her for so long.

The next moment, she checked her phone for the time and said, “Qi Shaoze will be here soon. Let’s not talk anymore.”

Chu He understood, “Okay, I’ll follow your lead.”

When Qi Shaoze arrived in the monitoring room, his eyes immediately locked onto the screen.

Gu Qingcheng paced back and forth in the small room, her beautiful face pale, her eyes expressionless.

“How can you keep her in such a small room?” he turned to Gu Mei, his eyes filled with pity for Gu Qingcheng. “At least it should be a bigger room, fully equipped. What if she wants water? What if she needs the restroom? We agreed to keep her temporarily confined in comfort. What is this?”

Gu Mei noticed Qi Shaoze’s concern and worry for Gu Qingcheng, and she clenched her fists in rage, barely containing her fury.

Her emotions surged, causing intense pain in her organs, but the pain was nothing compared to her jealousy and hatred for Gu Qingcheng. She was infuriated that Qi Shaoze only had eyes for Gu Qingcheng after entering the room.

Gu Qingcheng!

Gu Qingcheng!

Always Gu Qingcheng!

What’s so good about Gu Qingcheng?

She’s just a bitch and a shrew! Nothing compared to her, Gu Mei, beautiful and skilled in pleasing men. Qi Shaoze and Huo Sicheng are just fools blinded by her.

Enraged to the point of feeling her lungs explode and her liver ache, she had to forcefully suppress it, not wanting to offend Qi Shaoze.

“Shaoze…” she cooed, her hand reaching for Qi Shaoze’s sturdy waist. “Don’t be angry. Listen to me. I planned to make my sister comfortable, but considering her strong personality, if the room had things like porcelain or knives, she might commit suicide in despair. You’d lose her forever.”

Qi Shaoze, feeling Gu Mei’s hands on him, pushed her away in disgust.

He didn’t blame her for touching him but affirmed, “Qingcheng won’t commit suicide! ”

Many people in the world commit suicide, but Gu Qingcheng would not. Her character is too resilient for such extreme actions.

Gu Mei, pushed away by Qi Shaoze, was not annoyed and continued to coax him. “Even if my sister won’t commit suicide, if she gets desperate and self-harms to threaten us to release her, wouldn’t you regret keeping her confined?”

Qi Shaoze was silent, suddenly doubtful. Although Gu Qingcheng wouldn’t commit suicide, self-harm as a means of threat was not beyond her.

A trace of mockery flickered in Gu Mei’s eyes.

She had already prepared excuses for keeping Gu Qingcheng confined. Now, she and Qi Shaoze were in the same boat as kidnappers. If something went wrong, Qi Shaoze couldn’t escape either.

From today on, Qi Shaoze must protect her. With him as her backing, she had nothing to fear.

“Shaoze, trust me in handling this,” she said sweetly to Qi Shaoze. “I’ll make sure my sister is well-fed and comfortable every day. I won’t mistreat her. Now that I’ve handled this side, shouldn’t you confront Huo Sicheng?”

Qi Shaoze, looking at Gu Mei’s earnest and sincere face, didn’t immediately answer her question. Instead, he turned to look at Gu Qingcheng. But the sight that greeted him was Gu Qingcheng collapsed on the floor.

“Qingcheng, Qingcheng, what’s wrong with you?” he exclaimed in shock, turning to Gu Mei.. “What happened to her? Did you do something to her?”
