Chapter 744: Master Gu 504 will not come back again.
Su Xiaofeng looked at Lin Jing in front of her, listened to her words, and her elegant brows furrowed, “Lin Jing, do we have a grudge?”
The attitude of the person opposite clearly told her that they hadn’t got along before.
Lin Jing sneered, “More than not getting along, we are outright enemies. Su Xiaofeng, there’s an old saying ‘Thirty years on the east side of the river, thirty years on the west; fortune turns like a wheel.’ It really is true. Look at you now, you’ve had amnesia, forgotten many things. And I’m no longer in the destitute state I used to be. Even the young master of the Gu Family, he’s too busy dealing with other affairs to spare any time for you. Su Xiaofeng, do you think you can leave here today?”
If it weren’t for Su Xiaofeng, she would still be the Young Lady of the Lin Family, living a carefree life with status and position, instead of being reduced to someone’s lackey.
“What do you want to do to me?” Xiaofeng stood up, preparing to leave and discovered the door was locked; she simply couldn’t get out.
“Of course, I will return all the things you did to me in the past. One by one.” Lin Jing walked to the window, and said to Xiaofeng, “You want to get out? Fine, jump from here. If you can jump from here, I’ll let go of our past and cancel all debts.”
The floor they were on was the third story, and outside the window there was a pond; the pond was filled with rocks, ensuring that anyone who jumped would certainly die.
“Come on, come over here, jump down from here. Xiaofeng, I’m going to tell you a secret, do you want to hear it?” Lin Jing beckoned to her in a seductive tone, “If you jump from here, you can regain your memory, do you believe that?”
“Lin Jing, you want to do something bad to me, I won’t believe you,” Xiaofeng shook her head; she wasn’t stupid, she wouldn’t jump.
“I’m not lying to you, think about why you lost your memory before, wasn’t it because of a brain injury? So now it’s simple, if you jump from here and get hurt again, surely your previous memories will come back. Su Xiaofeng, don’t you want to have the power to call the wind and summon the rain as before? In the Gu Family, you are the respected wife of the Junior Patriarch, outside, you’re a smart and capable businesswoman, at your parental home, you’re the competent daughter. Don’t you want all that back?”
Lin Jing looked at Su Xiaofeng, who covered her ears with a timid face devoid of any responsibility, and her sneering grew even more pronounced, “Look at you now, timid, incapable, not at all like the wife of the Junior Patriarch of the Gu Family; at a glance, you’re just a country girl. Let me tell you, if you don’t change, everyone around you will start to hate you, avoid you, and eventually abandon you.”
“Can you imagine living that kind of life? The young master of the Gu Family no longer loves you, your children no longer like you, your family no longer says you’re competent, everything goes back to the starting point, no, even worse than the starting point. Su Xiaofeng, can you stand that kind of life?” Lin Jing knew these were the things Xiaofeng least wanted to hear, the more she didn’t want to hear them, the more Lin Jing insisted on saying them until her adversary couldn’t stand to listen anymore.
What Lin Jing said was exactly what Xiaofeng was afraid of.
As she listened to Lin Jing’s words, Xiaofeng subconsciously didn’t want to hear and covered her own ears, “Don’t talk anymore, stop talking. The young master will not leave me, he won’t.”
He had said that he would come back.
He had promised her, and he had promised the children, saying he would certainly come back and let her wait for him.
“Won’t he?” Lin Jing looked at Xiaofeng with a mocking gaze, “Su Xiaofeng, aren’t you aware of your current situation? You’re no longer the clever and capable woman in his heart; now, you’ve forgotten everything, don’t remember anything. With you like this, will the young master of the Gu Family still like you? I find that hard to believe.”
“The young master of the Gu Family, who is he? He is the Junior Patriarch of the Gu Family in the Imperial Capital, destined to inherit Mr. Gu’s position. Such a man, plenty of people want to marry into that kind of life. If the young master of the Gu Family wants, he could replace you at any time, then leave you to stay in the countryside forever, never to return to the city again.”
“You’re talking nonsense, he won’t do it, he won’t,” Xiaofeng covered her ears, but at the same time, she was scared in her heart; she feared the young master of the Gu Family would leave her, and she also feared that everyone would leave her.
She really wanted to know how she used to be so competent, and since she returned home, she had also tried to be competent, but she found out she simply couldn’t do it.
It was like she had always been this way, utterly worthless, powerless.
