Chapter 1876: More Than A Month
There was a hint of viciousness in Pei Ge’s eyes. Her gaze looked as though she wanted to punish Old lady Qu right now and leave no room for gentleness.
“Don’t come any closer. I didn’t kill you. It was not me.”
Old lady Qu averted her gaze and did not dare to look at Pei Ge. She hid in a corner and her body trembled even more when she saw Pei Ge’s shadow approaching her.
“I didn’t kill you. Don’t come any closer. Please, don’t come any closer.”
Old lady Qu sounded pitiful. It was as though the closer Pei Ge walked to her, the more she could see the person she did not want to see on Pei Ge.
“Are you afraid? Is the insufferably arrogant Old lady Qu afraid? What a pity. If those outsiders knew about your expression now, they would laugh at you. Old lady Qu actually has moments of fear.”
Pei Ge’s voice was cold and she stared at Old lady Qu with coldness in her eyes.
“Madam, Old lady Qu has confessed all her crimes. She will be judged by the judge in three days.”
The police chief walked beside Pei Ge and bowed as he explained.
“Three days?”
Pei Ge frowned. These three days were short and fast.
“Yes, three days. Does Madam President think that time is too short?”
The police chief did not know what Pei Ge’s suspicion meant. Could it be that she felt that these three days were too short? Everyone said that Old lady Qu was the culprit behind destroying Pei Ge’s family. Everyone said that Pei Ge’s mother, Zhang Manhua, was originally the Qu family’s eldest daughter but was unable to return because of Old lady Qu.
“I want her to stay in this prison for a week. I want to visit her every day. I also want her to experience what it feels like to be threatened by someone. Three days is too short. For a vicious woman like her, a week, a month is still too short. Compared to me, who is the one suffering more?”
“This…”
The police chief looked up at Ji Ziming and saw him blinking his eyes. He said to Pei Ge, “Madam is right. A vicious woman like Old lady Qu will not be able to make up for her mistakes even if she goes to h.e.l.l.”
“The police chief is right. I’m thinking if Old lady Qu knows that what we are preparing to do, what if she is not crazy?”
Pei Ge’s voice was cold as she looked at Old lady Qu who was squatting at the corner of the wall. “Old lady Qu, am I right? Do you think three days or a week is a shorter time for you? Should I give you a taste of your own medicine or give you a chance? Old lady Qu, am I right?”
Pei Ge’s eyes were cold and filled with coldness as she looked at Old lady Qu with bloodshot eyes.
“Don’t come near me, don’t come near me. I said I don’t know anything. If you come any closer, I’ll get someone to kill you!”
Old lady Qu was triggered by Pei Ge’s words. She widened her eyes at Pei Ge, unable to hide the fear in them. “Let me warn you. I am Old lady Qu and my subordinates can take your cheap life anytime.”
“You want my life?”
Pei Ge scoffed as she watched Old lady Qu walk closer.
“You want to kill me? Old lady Qu, you actually want to kill me? What a joke. Do you know that I can kill you just by moving my hand and mouth? I don’t want you to die so quickly. Do you know why I am doing this?”
Pei Ge looked at Old lady Qu. The old lady before her had always cared about benefits and status, but she did not know that this was not the best thing in the world.
“What a pity. You are no longer Old lady Qu.”
Pei Ge sighed in pity as she looked at Old lady Qu pitifully.
“What should I do, Old lady Qu? You used to have such a glorious life but now, do you know? When I see you like this, I don’t think that you’re strong or fierce. I know that you’re a woman. Since you’re a woman, you must have a weakness. For example, your hatred for your past.”
Pei Ge hit the nail on the head. Looking at Old lady Qu before her, her lips curled into a faint smile and the hatred in her eyes slowly intensified. The happy past that she once had could not be erased from this woman’s eyes. If there was tolerance in this world, it would not be exhibited here.
This was Old lady Qu, who had used unscrupulous means to force Pei Ge’s family into a dead end.
“Who are you? Who are you? How do you know so much?”
Old lady Qu trembled as she looked at Pei Ge with fear in her eyes. She was already panicking inside.
“Who am I? Look closely at my face. Who am I?”
Pei Ge walked forward and grabbed Old lady Qu’s hand. “Look at me, look at who I am. Didn’t you plan to kill me? Look at me now. I’m right in front of you. If you want to kill me, come and kill me. Do it!”
Old lady Qu averted her gaze and did not dare to look into Pei Ge’s eyes. Her gaze was evasive as she looked at Pei Ge and raised her hand. Just as she was about to attack, the bodyguard beside Ji Ziming quickly raised his hand and the dagger in his hand brushed past Old lady Qu’s palm.
A drop of blood dripped onto Pei Ge’s face and the redness in her eyes deepened.
“Ah!”
Old lady Qu was extremely nervous when her hand was suddenly grazed by someone. She quickly hid at the corner and cried out in pain, completely losing her image as a madam.
“What, now you know the pain?”
Pei Ge looked at Old lady Qu who was hiding in the corner and asked harshly, “Does it hurt?”
“Ah… Ah… Who are you?”
Old lady Qu’s eyes were filled with fear, but she did not dare to look at Pei Ge for too long. She only looked at her a little more before quickly lowering her head as though she could see the person she was most afraid of in Pei Ge’s eyes.
“You should know very well who I am. Am I right?”
Pei Ge’s face inched closer as the drop of blood on her fair skin trickled down her cheeks.
“Blood…”
Old lady Qu held her hand tightly and did not move.
