My reborn husband and son are thinking about how to kill me every day.

It's impossible to say that Ji Wanying harbored no resentment. But she was inherently a selfish, cowardly, and afraid-to-die person.

Under the threat of the Gu poison, she dared not harbor resentment towards Ji Yunshuang.

She feared that if she harbored resentment towards Ji Yunshuang, Ji Yunshuang would learn her thoughts through the Gu worms in her body and torment her again.

At this moment, all she wanted was for Ji Yunshuang to let her go.

As for the disfigurement and the poison in her body, she couldn't think about them for the time being. Compared to her life, that man, Li Yaozong, was nothing at all.

She was now only troubled by the fact that compared to the information that Yan Hui and others had provided to Ji Yunshuang, there seemed to be so little she could do.

She began to feel uneasy, worried that Ji Yunshuang would think she was useless and wouldn't even bother using the Gu poison to control her mind anymore.

After much thought, she tried to explain her usefulness to Ji Yunshuang.

She said that besides being able to monitor Li Yaozong, she could also go to his mother to find out who was responsible for the poison on the dagger...

On the other side, when Kong Xiufang heard Da Mao say that Yan Hui had captured Ji Yunshuang and asked her to interrogate her personally, she was immediately excited and followed Da Mao to the dilapidated temple.

She had no doubt what Da Mao said.

After all, in her heart, Ji Yunshuang was just a woman with some looks, nowhere near as good as Yan Hui.

She never dreamed that this would be the scene she would see upon entering the dilapidated temple.

In her mind, Yan Hui, the local tyrant who could dominate the area, lay on the ground like a dead dog, fawningly expressing his loyalty to Ji Yunshuang.

Besides Yan Hui, there were some injured men and a woman who looked like a ghost in the dilapidated temple, all wagging their tails at Ji Yunshuang like dogs.

Ji Yunshuang, at this moment, was like a queen on a high and mighty throne, looking down on these people.

After the initial shock, Kong Xiufang's first reaction was to run.

Before she could even take a step, Ji Yunshuang suddenly pulled her back and threw her to the ground.

Kong Xiufang was dizzy from the fall. She glared angrily at Yan Hui and said, "Yan Hui, you tricked me. I never thought you were such a coward."

You can't even handle a woman, and you let someone trick me into coming here. I must have been blind to actually consider marrying you.

Upon hearing Kong Xiufang's words, Yan Hui couldn't help but feel resentful. Who was it all for that he had ended up in this predicament?

If it weren't for this woman, how could he have gotten involved with this female devil?

If he hadn't provoked this female devil, Yan Hui would still be the little tyrant of Changchun Lane in Hongdu.

But now, she has made him act like a dog, trying his best to please this female demon just to survive.

Kong Xiufang didn't care about her at all; she even scolded her.

At that moment, a wicked thought suddenly popped into his head. He wanted to see how much backbone she would have if she were reduced to the same situation as him, or if she would act like a dog.

He said to Ji Yunshuang, "Miss Ji, it was she who contacted me, saying that you have a prescription and she wants me to capture you..."

Ji Yunshuang glanced at Kong Xiufang with annoyance and said to Yan Hui, "Since she keeps trying to scheme against me, there's no need to waste any more words. Let's just take care of her!"

Kong Xiufang stared wide-eyed at Ji Yunshuang in disbelief. What did it mean to just kill the person? Was it what she thought?

How dare she?

That's murder!

However, Yan Hui and the others' actions confirmed her suspicions.

What she found even more unbelievable was that these people, despite being injured, seemed to have no regard for their own lives, and crawled towards her in a contorted manner, completely ignoring their wounds.

"You're all crazy! You're all crazy!" Kong Xiufang screamed and tried to run away, but was stopped by Da Mao, who had snapped out of his daze.

Da Mao only received a signal from his boss to take Kong Xiufang to the dilapidated temple. He clearly hadn't expected that the temple would turn out like this.

However, seeing that Yan Hui was trying to win over Kong Xiufang despite his injuries, he subconsciously helped Yan Hui.

"Brother, we've caught him." He instinctively pulled Kong Xiufang closer to Yan Hui.

Yan Hui said, "Da Mao, strangle her."

"Would you really strangle him?" Da Mao's voice trembled, his hands shaking involuntarily. He followed Yan Hui around, but of course, he didn't do anything legitimate. But he had never killed anyone with his own hands.

Yan Hui said, "If you can't do it, then let me do it."

Kong Xiufang struggled desperately, saying, "Are you all crazy? Let me go! Do you know what you're doing?"

Seeing that Yan Hui was completely ignoring her, Kong Xiufang turned to Ji Yunshuang and said, "Do you know that you are instigating them to kill someone? The government will not let you off the hook."

Ji Yunshuang chuckled and said, "How come you suddenly know about the law? When you repeatedly had people kidnap me, didn't you ever think that your actions were also illegal?"

Kong Xiufang said somewhat guiltily, "But...but I didn't intend to kill you!"

"Yes, you might not have intended to kill me at first. But what if I refused to hand over the formula? Would you still have let me go?"

Ji Yunshuang grabbed her chin and slowly applied pressure. "Will you use every means to force me to hand over the formula, completely disregarding my life or death?"

After I hand over the recipe, are you worried that word will leak out, making me someone who will never speak up again?

Kong Xiufang felt as if her neck was being gripped by an iron claw, and her jaw felt like it was about to be crushed.

Her breathing became difficult, and her face gradually turned bluish-purple.

She wanted to explain, but Ji Yunshuang didn't give her a chance to speak.

"You say you can't, but that's just because our positions have switched now."

Ji Yunshuang said in an icy tone, "How could I let you get away with this and let you come looking for trouble again?"

"No..." Kong Xiufang used all her strength to squeeze out a few words, "I dare not, please..."

Only when Kong Xiufang was about to stop breathing did Yan Hui speak up, "Miss Ji, why don't we spare her life for now?"

Ji Yunshuang glanced at him coldly, and Yan Wang hurriedly explained, "Heroine, I absolutely did not mean to plead for her. I was just thinking that the people from Desheng Trading Company are still watching you, and if she dies now, it might cause you trouble."

"Why don't you also give her a Gu poison? If she dares to disrespect you again, or does anything to wrong you, then activate the Gu worm and make her bleed from all seven orifices until she dies."

As if persuaded by his words, Ji Yunshuang examined Kong Xiufang for a moment, pinched her chin, and fed her a pill. After she swallowed it, she threw Kong Xiufang to Yan Hui like a rag doll, saying, "From now on, you will keep an eye on her. If she does anything wrong, I will hold you accountable."

After saying that, Ji Yunshuang took out a handkerchief to wipe her hands, then jumped into the carriage and drove away from the dilapidated temple.

The people in the dilapidated temple waited until she was far away before daring to breathe deeply.
