Chapter 1269 : Gu Mu’s end
Chapter 1269 : Gu Mu’s end
While the Yu family was shrouded in the clouds of gloom, the Gu family was not in any less trouble. Once the matter of Gu Mu molesting and killing mers came out the marriages of the other daughters of the Gu family were cancelled one after another.
From day to night, betrothal gifts were returned one by one leaving the mer concubines and their daughters really upset. Gu Zedong didn't want to deal with them and thus left the house without even telling anyone. While Kong Tai hid in his courtyard, no matter how much the mer concubines scolded and blamed him, he didn't open the door of his courtyard.
He knew that the second he opened the courtyard's door, he would be beaten up.
Thus, he could only stay inside the courtyard while burying his head under the pillow.
"AHHH!! Shut them up! Shut them up! Who are they to blame me? Their daughters were not any good either, why am I to blame?" Kong Tai shouted while holding his pillow over his head and stretching it on the sides. He had never been insulted like this before, he couldn't believe that they were saying all sorts of rude things to him even before he lost his wife's favour.
If he lost his wife's favour who knows what these mers would do to him!
His servant could only lower his head and stay quietly in the corner. He was afraid that if he was to say anything then Kong Tai would take his anger out on him. The servant was also suffering, he had done nothing wrong and was only here to earn some money for his family and yet he had to be unfortunate enough to become the servant of the father of a murderer.
In the past, this servant used to think that there was no servant any more luckier than him but just in one day he was cursing his luck. Though Kong Tai had no idea what was going on around him, as he was refusing to accept the truth, it didn't change the fact that changes were happening around him and his importance and reputation in his family were going down slowly and steadily,
Because Kong Tai didn't want to hear the nonsense of the other mer concubines, he decided to sleep early. In his sleep, he could hear someone groaning but he ignored the groans and continued to sleep.
"What's wrong? Cat got your tongue or did some fairy lock your mouths, why do you not speak? What happened to cause you all to scream," Kong Tai angrily questioned his servants. He was already in a bad mood because of what happened with his daughter, he couldn't sleep last night because of all the groaning and moaning and now he was woken up by these foolish servants' screaming.
"That...That..." one of the servants finally spoke up. He didn't want to be scolded for no reason. However, when he thought of the horrifying condition in which the body was, he couldn't help but tremble and ended up stammering.
"What 'that..that? What are you trying to say? Speak clearly," snapped Kong Tai angrily. He was angry and frustrated with how his life had gone downhill, he still needed to think of a way to get his daughter out of the prison yet no one was giving him any space.
The servant dared not to say anything when he saw that Kong Tai was this angry. He only raised his hand and pointed at Gu Mu's corpse which was churning and croaking while hanging on the branch.
"What..what are you——" Kong Tai turned to look in the direction in which the servant was pointing. He wanted to say something more but then his eyes fell on the corpse on the tree and his eyes widened before a wretched scream tore out of his mouth.
" GU MU!"
