Chapter 66: Question

Translator: _Min_

Gu Dai halted. Her body lightly shook as she looked over fearfully, Aunt Liu, should we contact the police? Those responsible need to be held accountable. We cant just let them run free.

Liu Min found her mind spinning in overdrive.

If the culprits were two men, it could indeed be Sun Hai and Sun Yang. If the police were alerted, they would likely uncover their scheme. She had to stop Gu Dai from making the call.

Seeing Gu Dai pull out her phone, Liu Min quickly grasped her hand, No, dont call the police!

Gu Dai looked at her, confusion clear in her eyes, Why not? My uncles been severely injured. We cant just stand by!

She paused and fixed a serious gaze on Liu Min, Dont you want justice for my elder uncle?

Liu Min felt a wave of dizziness at the news of her husbands injuries.

But, she gathered herself as her mind became clear when she heard Gu Dais words, Of course I care! But there might be a reason your elder uncle didnt want the police involved. Lets wait until he wakes up, then decide!

Hearing Liu Mins response, Gu Dai inwardly scoffed. A reason, indeed.

Regardless of how she felt internally, she calmly put on a convinced expression and said, Aunt Liu, 111 head home to rest. Theres a lot of work at the company and its a crucial time to make money. 1 need to stay sharp.

Liu Mings expression turned worse.

Seeing Gu Dai making money while they were penniless and in debt made Liu Mins expression sour. The money they used to pay Sun Hai and Sun Yang was borrowed. Not only had their plan failed, but they had also injured Gu Ming and now they couldnt afford his medical bills!

Desperate, Liu Min turned to Gu Dai, Daidai.

Gu Dais brows knitted together, expecting an unwanted request, more importantly, she wanted to throw up when she heard her voice.

Liu Min, not knowing that she was despised, wiped the tears streaking down her face, pleaded, Daidai, your uncles injuries are severe. We need money. Ever since you evicted us, were penniless. Could you lend us some? Well repay you as soon as we can. Or should I kneel and beg?

Gu Dai took a moment to respond. Liu Mins audacity was almost astonis.h.i.+ng. She was far inferior compared to Liu Min in the ability to be shameless.

Others were just as shocked and their eyes widened at Liu Mins words. Some murmured, How heartless, evicting her own family. She wont agree even when the elder begs. Is she waiting for the elder to kneel?

Gu Dai calmly responded, Aunt Liu, I didnt want to evict you. It was only fair that you stayed in my house while I was away for three years. But Im back now, and I need my home, as 1 have nowhere else to stay either.

Without giving Liu Min chance to speak, she continued, This might confuse others. You said earlier on the phone we werent close. Thats fine. In fact, Ive already paid the medical bills, so uncle can get treated.

With that, Gu Dai turned to leave, Its getting late, 1 should head home. 111 visit uncle after work.

She didnt rush her exit. She allowed a few tears to fall, swiftly wiping them away. Her eyes reddened, portraying a picture of someone wronged yet resilient..
