Bang bang!
Two shots.
There was a hole in Gu Rou's chest, and the scarlet blood seemed to flow out of it.
With a trace of blood at the corner of her mouth, she looked at the woman who was holding a gun and aiming at her head. "Hong Xiu, I'm so happy. I can die in the hands of my own sister. I have no regrets even if I die."
"Gu Rou, I hate your compassionate expression." Gu Hongxiu said coldly, "No wonder they said that you are not suitable to be a killer, because you are too kind."
Gu Rou smiled. Her smile was pale and beautiful. "You're right."
All of a sudden, her eyes turned cold, and a dagger appeared in her hand.
Before Gu Hongxiu could react, the dagger had cut her throat.
Blood gushed out. Gu Hongxiu's internal organs were blocked and she couldn't breathe. Soon, she was suffocated.
Clang!
The dagger in Gu Rou's hand fell to the ground and she fell into a pool of blood.
Looking at Gu Hongxiu's body that was no longer twitching, she smiled coldly and slowly closed her eyes.
—
There was a loud noise in her ear, and Gu Rou was about to die of frustration.
When he suddenly opened his eyes, he saw an old woman standing in front of him, with tears in her eyes.
She blurted out, "Auntie Sun, what's going on outside?"
After that, she was stunned for a moment, and the messy memories flooded into her mind like a flood.
She felt a dull pain in her brain.
"Miss, you're awake." Gu Rou nodded. "Why is it so noisy outside?"
"Old man Han took us in. His silly granddaughter was broken off the engagement, and the other party asked them to pay the betrothal fee," Sun's mother said helplessly.
Gu Rou frowned. "Is there a problem?"
Sun's mother scanned the whole room with her eyes. "This family has four walls. How can we pay them back? It just so happens that the other party has to pay three times more."
Gu Rou thought about it. Since the other party was kind enough to take her in, there was no reason for her to sit idly by. She stood up and said, "Auntie Sun, help me out and take a look."
"Miss, you were rescued from the water by Old Man Han's silly girl. You haven't recovered yet. You can't see the wind," Sun's mother said worriedly, stopping her from going out.
"I have my own body. Do we still have money?" Gu Rou asked again.
Speaking of money, Sun's mother's eyes turned red again. "When we came out of your grandmother's house, we didn't bring any silver. After you fell into the water, the silver was washed away."
Gu Rou paused. No wonder Sun's mother looked helpless.
She was also warm-hearted. If she had money, she wouldn't have looked at her like that.
"It doesn't matter." Gu Rou comforted her. "Let's go and have a look first. There will always be a way."
Sun's mother nodded and helped Gu Rou to the hall outside.
Several people were sitting in the hall. When they saw Gu Rou coming out, they were all stunned.
Mr. Han stood up and said, "Miss, you're awake."
Gu Rou smiled and said, "Uncle Han, you don't have to be so polite. The silly girl saved me and you took us in. We are very grateful."
Mr. Han smiled slightly and said, "You're welcome, Miss. Just stay here."
Speaking of the silly girl, Gu Rou saw a little girl in a light red lined jacket with goat horns standing by the side.
He looked like he was about 11 or 12 years old. His oval face, big eyes, black and white eyes were clear, but his eyes were big and dull.
But Gu Rou was still stunned, because she thought of Hong Xiu, who had been dependent on her since she was a child, and finally wanted to kill her.
There was an indescribable emotion in her heart.
"Don't talk anymore. Let's solve this problem first," the daughter-in-law of the Chen family said angrily.
However, Gu Rou didn't even look at her. She only said to Mr. Han, "Uncle Han, there are guests at home. It's not easy for me to get involved. But the silly girl saved my life, and I became sworn brothers with her. I want to recognize her as my sister. What do you think?"
