Gu Pinghui looked confused: “Did you offended someone recently?”

Gu Fengkang offended someone? In Qingyuan Town, is there someone he didn’t offend? There was Meng Nan before, but Meng Nan had already left, wait… wait, Meng Nan?

Gu Fengkang suddenly remembered yesterday’s incident. Bai Zhi came to complain and sued Qian Zhongyuan for hiring people to kill them. He couldn’t remember how many boards she suffered, but he was certain that it’s not many.

Boss Chen said that Bai Zhi was Meng Nan’s little lover. After a few days, he will send people to pick her up. That assassin last night, was it Meng Nan’s people? Could it be that before he left Qingyuan Town, he left some people to guard her?

It must be the case. Otherwise, how could Boss Chen arrive in such a timely manner to save Bai Zhi, who was alone in his place?

”Master, what are you thinking about? Who do you think harmed you?” Xu Furen asked.

Gu Fengkang’s face became pale and his eyes were filled with panic. How can he not? Meng Nan stayed in Qingyuan Town for two years. He had been cautious around him in fear of offending the Meng Family in the capital. Now that he’s gone, he thought everything will be fine, but who knows that at this moment, everything became a failure… …

When Gu Pinghui saw Gu Fengkang’s appearance, she couldn’t help but ask: “Fengkang, did you think of something? Who harmed you and Zhongyuan? We mustn’t spare him, we must capture him and let him pay for our loses. We must peel off his skin, break his ribs and—”

“Shut up!” Gu Fengkang roared in anger. He was extremely emotional. His eyes were wide opened, which made Gu Pinghui shrink in fright. And she almost fell to the ground.

Her younger brother has always been good to her and has no opinion on Qian Zhongyuan. No matter what happened to Qian Zhongyuan, he always protects him and never yelled at her like this.

What’s wrong with him?

Gu Fengkang was distressed: “Don’t mention Qian Zhongyuan in front of me. I have been the country magistrate for many years. How many things I have cleaned up for him in all these years? But, he only gets more and more daring. Not only he has guts to hire killers now, but he also now has guts to offend those people he shouldn’t offend.”

Gu Pinghui’s face drastically changed: “Fengkang, what do you mean by this? I, I don’t understand!”

Gu Fengkang angrily said: “If you don’t understand, just go back and tell Qian Zhongyuan to restrain himself, don’t go out and cause trouble. Especially, provoking people he shouldn’t provoke like Meng Family. I am the country magistrate, but in front of Meng Family, I am not even a fart.”

When Gu Pinghui heard those words, she got confused. She couldn’t understand what he was saying, but she can see that her brother doesn’t want to talk to her anymore. So, she got up and said: “Fengkang, you should recuperate. The things you said, I will tell them to Zhongyuan.”

Gu Fengkang didn’t look at Gu Pinghui again, he just waved his hand for her to leave.

Xu Furen never liked Gu Pinghui. So now that she was reprimanded. Her heart felt refreshing. But she didn’t show it on the surface of her face, she even sent Gu Pinghui out. “Big sister, don’t take it to heart, Fengkang was badly injured so he was not happy inside his heart.”

Gu Pinghui wiped her tears and said: “Sister, I don’t blame Fengkang, he is my brother, I know he didn’t mean it.”

Gu Pinghui wiped again the tears in her eyes and then grabbed Xu Furen’s hand: “Sister, I heard Meng Daren’s wrist got injured before. The doctor in the town said they couldn’t cure him, so then who cured him?”
