Chapter 502: Sudden Attack
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Gu Man had no intention of stopping. She rushed over and knocked down the dagger at an extremely fast speed, but under such circ.u.mstances, the wound would unavoidably deepen.
Xiao Xiao landed in Gu Man’s arms. Her face was extremely pale because the wound on her neck made her gradually lose consciousness. She could only force a smile before she fainted.
Gu Man helped Xiao Xiao up and untied the rope on her body. Gu Rou took out her dagger unwillingly and rushed forward, but Gu Man kicked her away. The dagger fell to the ground with a crisp sound.
The situation had reversed, but Gu Rou was still unwilling.
Wei Wei and Mo Qing also surrounded them. At the same time, the men who had already stood up surrounded Gu Man and Xiao Xiao and stared warily in the middle.
“Gu Man, you’d better cooperate honestly. Otherwise, you’ll be the one in pain if they hurt you.” Mo Qing’s eyes were sinister as she gestured to the person beside her.
The men instantly rushed towards Gu Man in the middle. Because they had learned their lesson, they were even more vigilant this time. In addition, someone in Gu Man’s hands restricted her movements, so Gu Man did not have the upper hand.
Gu Man supported Xiao Xiao’s body with one hand and dealt with the surrounding attacks with the other. However, it was obvious that standing still was not conducive to her performance. She could only be forced to defend.
The expression on her face did not change, as if she was not the one being surrounded.
Gu Rou stared fixedly in Gu Man’s direction, her eyes filled with hatred.
At this moment, Zhong Yao handed the dagger she had picked up from the ground to Gu Rou. She looked in Gu Man’s direction expectantly.
Looking at the silver dagger, Gu Rou did not take it directly. Instead, she looked up at Zhong Yao’s face with a probing gaze.
Zhong Yao panicked under his gaze. She almost subconsciously tightened her grip on the dagger in her hand, not daring to meet Gu Ron’s gaze.
“Since you’re so enthusiastic, go ahead.” Gu Ron’s rationality returned slightly. She also realized that something was wrong.
Why was Zhong Yao so excited during the entire incident but never took the initiative to attack?
Then, she thought about what she had just said. Could it be that in Zhong Yao’s heart, she was just a chess piece that could be used?
Gu Rou narrowed her eyes and sized Zhong Yao up. She did not have a good impression of this cousin who had suddenly joined their family. She only maintained harmony on the surface.
And now that there was no one else here, there was no need to continue pretending.
Zhong Yao held the dagger in her hand and became more and more nervous. Sweat kept soaking her palms. Her eyes fluttered. “Cousin, I don’t dare.”
“Since you don’t dare, why do you think I dare?” Gu Rou approached Zhong Yao, her aura pressing down on her.
Zhong Yao subconsciously took a step back and the dagger in her hand fell to the ground, making a clear sound that attracted everyone’s attention.
Gu Man took this opportunity to quickly attack the man beside her. She swept her leg across and hit the most vulnerable part of the man’s neck. The man fainted.
Right on the heels of that, Gu Man’s body quickly flipped in the air and kicked the man beside the man again. In this instant, two more men fell to the ground.
There were only three or four men left.
She landed nimbly and looked up at the remaining people.
Gu Rou could not care less about Zhong Yao beside her. She quickly looked at Gu Man and bit her lip.
“You bunch of trash can’t even catch a woman?”
If she could not make up for her mistake this time, her status in the Gu family would decrease greatly, so dealing with the source of the matter was the best solution.
Recently, the Gu family had been in trouble. She had no choice but to do this.
Otherwise, she would not have worked with these idiots.
Gu Ron’s gaze landed on Zhong Yao and her eyes narrowed slightly. She had been paying too much attention to Gu Man recently and had forgotten that there was someone with ulterior motives beside her.
Zhong Yao trembled subconsciously when Gu Ron’s gaze swept past her. As if she had made up her mind, she squatted down and picked up the dagger she had thrown on the ground..
