Back then, it was indeed not her last resort. It was just that her body was really a little damaged. She really could not tolerate it. In addition, because after she was attacked, her torso aged at an extremely fast speed. She could not accept her ugly appearance at all, so she possessed her in advance.
However, she did not expect her thoughts to be exposed.
She was stunned for a long time as she watched Gu Man leave.
When she came back to her senses, she looked around and realized that there was another person. She walked towards Chu An and checked his breathing. When she realized that he was still alive, she ignored him.
She needed to solve a dead person, but she did not need to solve a living person. With his deep love for her granddaughter, nothing would happen.
After Gu Man walked out of the Zhou Family’s villa, she realized that there was a group of people standing outside the door, including Zhen Rong, who had fled at the beginning.
As soon as Zhou Yan saw Gu Man, she jogged over, her eyes filled with worry. “Are you alright? That Xia Tong does have some tricks up her sleeve. I’m afraid that you’ll be injured by her.”
“Does it look like I’m hurt?” Gu Man asked her.
After Zhou Yan sized up Gu Man carefully, she did not find any wounds on her body. Moreover, her face was very red. It seemed that nothing had happened. Only then did Zhou Yan heave a sigh of relief.
“I’m sorry for causing you so much trouble.” After she relaxed, Zhou Yan felt a strong sense of guilt. She lowered her head and felt that not only was she incompetent, but she also had no ability at all. She had been troubling Gu Man.
“It’s not troublesome at all. Besides, 1 had an unexpected gain today,” Gu Man said vaguely.
Zhou Yan looked up in surprise, but seeing that Gu Man had no intention of continuing, she tactfully did not ask further because she knew that Gu Man’s ident.i.ty was mysterious and she naturally had some unspeakable secrets.
Gu Man continued to walk forward. When she pa.s.sed by Zhou Ping, he suddenly said, “I’ll thank you for this first. If you need anything, you can look for me. I didn’t expect that old thing to be so bad. You’re not bad.”
“Old Master Zhou, watch your words. Besides, if you attack the Cui Family, don’t blame me for disregarding your feelings. 1 also know some of the grudges between the Zhou Family and the Cui Family. In my opinion, one has to know how to repay kindness. Otherwise, one will easily be plagued by bad luck.” Gu Man was not exaggerating. She looked at the black fog around Zhou Ping’s forehead and quickly retracted her gaze.
Zhou Ping’s expression instantly turned ugly. He did not expect Gu Man’s words to be so unpleasant. He snorted and ignored her.
Seeing this, Gu Man did not intend to persuade him anymore. She shook her head and walked out.
After Gu Man left, Zhou Yan immediately came to Zhou Ping’s side in dissatisfaction. “Dad, what did you say just now?”
“Didn’t you hear that? She cursed me first!” Zhou Ping was furious. It was fine if Gu Man cursed him, but why was his daughter also messing around?
“Dad, 1 think Miss Gu is right. Besides, she does have some ability. You can still listen to her.” Zhou Yan had seen Gu Man’s abilities the most directly, so she naturally took it to heart.
However, Zhou Ping was different. He did not believe in this. He was not happy about Gu Man’s words at all. Instead, he was angry at being cursed.
“She’s really similar to Old Master Cui. She likes those mysterious things. If you ask me, if she’s really that powerful, she didn’t get anything out of it.” Zhou Ping’s words were filled with disdain.
Zhou Yan was furious and glared at Zhou Ping.
Sensing his daughter’s anger, Zhou Ping shut his mouth and did not say anything else. However, he had already taken the initiative to draw a line with Gu Man. It was fine if she came to him for help, but it was absolutely impossible for him to do anything else. He would not agree to Zhou Yan interacting with such a mysterious person. What kind of person was she?!
At the thought of being cursed just now, Zhou Ping became even angrier. He turned around and walked into the villa.
However, after taking two steps, Zhou Ping saw Xia Tong walking out of the villa. When he thought of the scene just now, he was so frightened that he did not even dare to breathe. He looked in Xia Tong’s direction with fear in his eyes..
