Chapter 1374 - The Ten Greatest Punishments Of The Qing Dynasty

Chapter 1374: The Ten Greatest Punishments Of The Qing Dynasty Gu Mengmeng took two deep breaths in before recovering her emotions slightly. She stared at Lea, waiting for him to continue his analysis.
Lea fiddled around with Gu Mengmeng’s fingers as he said in a casual and indifferent tone,
Chixuan must have gotten hold of this news through a certain method so let’s follow it and devise a plan. It’s just that Chixuan’s plan isn’t fully developed yet so I’m not too sure about the outline of his plans. From the current information, I can figure out that he wants to use the period of one month when Cole is waiting for you in Sauder to do something…..and I feel that Gregory’s return this winter to guard Sauder has something to do with Chixuan.

Gu Mengmeng face-palmed and shook her head, asking,
Do you think Chixuan has entered the rebellious stage? Daring to tie his two legs on the gas cylinder….

Lea hugged Gu Mengmeng and comforted her softly,
Don’t worry too much, if Chixuan could use the Soul of the Forest to confuse Cole to stay in Sauder for a month, he isn’t a simple kid. If he has the intention to devise a plan, even I might fall for his tricks. Moreover, Jialue is working alongside him. As what you said, if brothers are of the same mind, their sharpness can cut through metal. The worst result will just be landing in Cole’s hands, but Cole will not dare to kill them.

Gu Mengmeng sighed and said,
The only thing we can do now is to wait, Cole promised that he will return the three brothers to me before winter ends, if he dares to go back on his words….

Lea knew that Gu Mengmeng could not bear to say the phrase ‘kill him’.
It was not because she could not bear to kill Cole but because she could not bear to hurt Chixuan.
Lea chuckled and said,
I’m more interested in the Ten Greatest Punishments of the Qing Dynasty you just mentioned, can you explain them more to me? Maybe I can see if we can use any of them on Cole after some tweaks?

Gu Mengmeng was worried for her three sons and was filled with hatred towards Cole, so she described the Ten Greatest Punishments of the Qing Dynasty vividly while gnashing her teeth in anger. This scared Miranda till her eyes went blank and despite how pain her wrist was, she did not dare to whimper anymore. Seeing how Lea, who was absolutely perfect in her heart, smiling in compliance with Gu Mengmeng’s words and even showed an enthusiastic look, Miranda felt a chill down her spine for the first time.
This male, who was the most perfect person in her heart, was a lot more vicious and sinister than the old fellow who held her captive. She could imagine the scenes of those torturous punishments which she had neither heard of nor seen before, just purely by hearing her description.
Ah, this was why Lea did not want to save her back then. As compared to the description Gu Mengmeng was stating now, her captive days were spent in a lot more happiness….
That night, Gregory brought two beast-skin bags full of Xue Ling fruits back to the stone castle.
Gu Mengmeng asked Gregory whether he said anything to Chixuan in private before winter as she ate the Xue Ling fruits.
Gregory thought that the matter was related to Cole, so he did not dare to hide anything as he spilled whatever he knew to Gu Mengmeng. Chixuan told him Burke’s story and said that guarding a female in silence was a type of love. Even if the male can’t receive any repayment, doing something for the female was better than waiting aimlessly day after day, wasting his life for a miracle that would never happen.
Gu Mengmeng exchanged glances with Lea, Gregory’s act of guarding in Sauder during winter was indeed Chixuan’s doing.
She really can’t…..belittle this son of hers.
Gu Mengmeng did not want to see Miranda so Gregory sent Miranda to the Motou Mountains and that way, the six lives he owed her was reduced to five.
