Rebirth: He refused to Divorce Again

Chapter 2068: Chapter 2066: Intersecting Time and Space, Shifting Lives (14)

The Ice Arrow Talisman turns to water upon contact, and the temperature suddenly dropped by more than ten degrees, cold and piercing like winter.

At this moment, Ning Wanru felt stabbing pain and suffocation in her chest, as if her whole body was being squeezed by the water, about to explode.

The drowning, imminent death sensation that overwhelmed her made her widen her eyes in terror, using the last strain of strength to desperately struggle.

But the water was too cold, cutting bones with icy chill.

Her hands and feet grew increasingly stiff until finally sinking to the bottom of the lake.

Gu Qiaoqiao crossed her arms, standing coldly by the lake watching Ning Wanru’s struggle.

Thinking for a moment, she casually set up a Barrier Talisman, shielding the space behind her, though she dispelled her invisibility, making Ning Wanru, sunk at the lake’s bottom, widen her eyes in horror. In the last glimpse, she saw a cool woman looking at her with a gaze devoid of warmth, as though seeing a dead person.

It was Gu Qiaoqiao, of course she recognized her, instantly knowing, because her brother died, Gu Qiaoqiao attempted suicide but was saved by Qin Yize, now staying at the First People’s Hospital.

The last tidbit received was that she hadn’t woken up yet, yet how could she be here, all these thoughts flashed in a blink, as more water entered her mouth, the stabs in her chest intensified, her vision blacked out completely, passing out.

Gu Qiaoqiao made herself invisible again, removed the Barrier Talisman, and a dot of light struck Steward Wu’s right foot, alleviating the chill and stiffness given by the Ice Arrow Talisman. Heart pounding, he crawled up, ran madly toward the lake, then leaped in without thinking.

Yet unexpectedly, the lake water was frigid, like winter again, his body seemed frozen stiff, as though he too would sink into the water the next moment, but he bit his teeth and dove down to fish Ning Wanru out.

Gu Qiaoqiao cast a cold glance at the two sprawled on the shore.

Then she pocketed her hands swiftly walking toward the North Mountain Villa District’s gate.

Qin Yize already gathered all the evidence of crime, even if Gu Qingfeng didn’t act, the father-son pair Gu Cheng and Ning Wanru couldn’t escape harsh legal punishment.

This matter should be left to Qin Yize, she wouldn’t disrupt the existing path, however, she would make these foes endure hellish suffering like Ning Wanru now.

Gu Qiaoqiao stood at the North Mountain Villa District gate, glanced back coldly behind her, then she slowly walked down the hill, arriving at the bus stop, seeing an ambulance speeding toward the North Mountain Villa District, obviously, Steward Wu made the call.

Gu Qiaoqiao’s gaze turned sinister, she only looked once then withdrew, naturally Ning Wanru wouldn’t die, but would live in hell forever until accepting punishment.

She would see herself covered in age spots, see her hair turn white, see herself wrinkled all over, her waist never straight again, walking would be a hobble.

The scene, truly worth anticipation!

Next, Gu Qiaoqiao went to Gu Cheng’s workplace, similarly directing malevolent energy into his body. Her timing was just right for the afternoon work hours, Gu Cheng was heading to a meeting, a secretary holding a stack of files thick while he strolled leisurely.

Of course, how could she let him walk leisurely like that? A misstep sent him tumbling down the stairs, unable to move at once.

Finally, it was Gu Jianhua.

This person she hadn’t found since her rebirth, now full of vigor, surfacing at peak fortune.

The prime culprit in her father’s death.

Gu Qiaoqiao did not hesitate directing malevolent energy into his body once more.

The next day, the Imperial Capital’s upper-class circles seemed to have exploded.

Like a big stone falling into lake waters stirring turbulent waves, everyone discussed, speculated, analyzed, and spoke of everything.

First, Gu Cheng fell from upstairs, hospitalized, diagnosed with paraplegia implying he couldn’t rise again, confined to a hospital bed forever, then his mother, Yubao Square’s Second Lady admitted before him now in coma, unknown post-awakening status but reportedly not optimistic.

Then Gu Cheng’s eldest son, Gu Jianhua in under an hour was halted by a woman holding a child speaking insistently the child was his, with evidence to back her claims, what’s worse was she held abundant evidence of him sabotaging rivals.

This abruptly stirred more chaos, his opponent, who wouldn’t hasten to act now!

Thus, Gu Jianhua was arrested at night.

Reportedly twisted his foot while getting into the car, suffering comminuted fracture, also sent to hospital.

Then Gu Cheng’s two daughters became the public focus one indirectly caused a loving couple’s demise, the other attempted marrying into the Luo Family, drugged the Luo Group Chairman Luo Fan but was seen through and reported by Luo Fan.

Therefore now both Gu daughters are in police custody, few others are hospitalized, the youngest son away distant fortunately spared, another son named Gu Jiansheng rumored gone for years, whereabouts unknown.

Ultimately, this Gu Family people seem to be simultaneously cursed and punished by heavens no less, truly peculiar, though efforts to contain this news are made, insiders can’t stop information from circulating, anxiety spreads.

Certainly, anxious are those who’ve done wrong, haunted inside by guilt, thus afraid, yet they fail to realize whom the Gu Family offended, what wrathful deeds led to such punishment, these remain shrouded in mystery.

Additionally, another matter involving Lin Fanpeng.

He’s now released on medical parole, due to old age nearing eighty, serving time akin to retirement, combined with poor health thus approved for medical parole last month, yet this morning Lin Fanpeng convulsed, foaming at the mouth, collapsed on the ground, currently hospitalized.

Of course no one knows Lin Fanpeng’s connection to the Gu Family, maybe coincidence, some still murmur perhaps he and Gu Family collaborated in some wrongdoing.

Gu Qiaoqiao unaware of this news but acknowledges such major shifts must be known amongst those insiders.
