Chapter 32: Chapter 32: Impotent Rage, Blame It All on Women?

"You swore an oath right in front of us! Look at you now! Everything you do is something only an animal would do!"

"You had no money back then, but our family never looked down on you! We always treated you like an honored guest. My husband was your professor, and my daughter even married you! What more could you possibly want?!"

She was hysterical, accusing her son-in-law of being a failure, wishing she could just curse him to death.

But it was all for naught. Her daughter was never coming back.

In the end, she sank helplessly to the floor, sobbing.

It was tragic enough for the old to bury the young, but for her to be murdered by her own husband... And she and her own husband were the ones who had set them up, thinking this boy was a good student.

That his character was good.

That he would be a loving person.

But... how did things turn out like this?

"Bitch! You bitch!"

After she spoke, the man, who had been sitting on a stool, shot to his feet. He pointed at her and said, "Are you done yet?"

"You people are hilarious. Going on about how good you were to me. Was I supposed to be honored that you approved of me?"

He still had a calm smile on his face. "Let me tell you, I don’t regret killing your daughter one bit. My only regret is that girl from last night. I was planning to give her an expensive gift and start a proper life with her."

"Tsk, who would’ve thought? She got scared off by a 400,000-yuan bracelet. And she even sold it to that livestreamer?"

He walked over, looking at his former mother-in-law with eyes full of disgust. "Doesn’t your family just have a bit of stinking money?"

"If it weren’t for your family’s money, would I have married your daughter?"

He was just a poor, powerless male student from the countryside. He happened to be eating at his professor’s house when he saw the professor’s daughter and got an idea, thinking he could definitely grow to like her.

He had even planned out his entire future: a huge villa without lifting a finger, and the whole lifestyle of the rich.

But who knew? After they got married, her parents only gave her, their only child, a regular apartment in a housing complex and a car.

He didn’t understand. Her parents were so rich, why did they give so little? Later, he found out it was because his wife had refused more, believing that he could definitely make a good living and that they could work hard together to buy a better house.

He got angry, thinking his wife was a real fucking idiot!

After having two kids, he managed to squeeze a lot of money out of them over time. Then his wife’s figure went, and she was covered in flab. The sight of her made him lose his appetite.

He didn’t even want to go home anymore.

He was already disgusted with her back then, but whenever he went home, he still had to pretend to dote on her, pretend to love her.

He even had to suck up to his father-in-law and mother-in-law.

Thinking about it now, it all felt so disgusting. Every single day was torture.

He pointed at his mother-in-law and said, "Just look at you all, acting so high and mighty! When have you ever truly respected me?"

"Your daughter was even worse, you know! I hit her once, and she cried her eyes out, demanding a divorce. No matter how many times I knelt and begged, she wouldn’t forgive me. She even wanted to take the children with her."

"To be honest, I don’t care about the kids. I can have more with other women. But if she left, I would have nothing! I want money! I need money! How could she dare to divorce me when I hadn’t even finished exploiting her last bit of use-value?"

As he said these things, the older woman kept backing away, with Gu Shengsheng supporting her.

"You’re insane! You’re truly insane!"

"So you killed my daughter! You took out an insurance policy on her! That’s right, the insurance... I should have guessed it was you. We were too trusting."

"Trusting you too much is what killed our daughter!"

With that, the older woman collapsed to the floor, crying.

Who could understand how helpless she felt now, a mother who could do nothing.

Her daughter was dead, dead! And she was the one who had pushed so hard for this marriage.

’Why did it have to be this way!?’

"Yes, you’re the ones who got your daughter killed. And now you want to pin it on me?"

"I just wanted her money, that’s all. Once she had no more use-value, her death was my gain, wasn’t it? Actually, now... Mom, I love her too. All those stories I told, I made them up."

"I’m even starting to believe it myself. I think I really did love her."

Gu Shengsheng sneered. "Is that how you live with yourself, you murderer?"

Seeing Gu Shengsheng speak, his composure suddenly shattered.

He pointed at Gu Shengsheng and cursed, "It was you! You’re the one who ruined all my plans! I even sent you gifts, for fuck’s sake!"

"You bitch, you’re the one who sent me to prison! I was such a successful person, and now I have nothing! Gu Shengsheng, you bitch!"

He grabbed Gu Shengsheng’s arm. Gu Shengsheng first glanced at Zhang Lianqing beside her. "This is self-defense, you know."

With that, she grabbed the man’s arm and slammed him to the ground. Then, Gu Shengsheng hit him hard four or five more times.

She said to him, "Do you know what you look like right now? The impotent rage of a kept man."

In the end, it was Zhang Lianqing who pulled her away, saying, "Don’t start a brawl in the police station. The law will decide everything."

"The impotent rage of a kept man." Those words sent him into a complete frenzy. He lunged, ready for a life-or-death struggle with Gu Shengsheng, but was held back by the police!

"Gu Shengsheng! Stop meddling in other people’s business! All the karmic retribution will fall on you! Go to hell! You can die for all of us!"

"You should die with my wife! You’re the one who exposed everything! With things like this, how can my parents in the countryside face anyone!?"

Gu Shengsheng laughed. "How can they face anyone? So you do understand that!"

"Then why did you do all this? From now on, whenever I see a scumbag like you, I’ll beat the shit out of him. I’ll beat you to a pulp."

"You have no real ability, yet you blame your own failures on women. I’m telling you, wake up. Who would want a piece of trash like you?"

"You just got lucky tricking a kind family. Otherwise, you would’ve been dead long ago."

"Now get lost. It’s about time for your execution."

Seeing Gu Shengsheng’s cocky attitude, Zhang Lianqing glanced at her and said speechlessly, "Looking at you, one might think you were the one facing the firing squad."

She smiled and said, "I’m just making him give up all hope. I’m not trying to tell you how to do your job. I’m just a fair, law-abiding citizen. My statement is all done."

"Can I go now?"

Before Zhang Lianqing could speak, the mother-in-law over there took her hand.

"Miss Gu," she said, "thank you so much."

"With this matter, you’ve truly done me and my husband a huge favor. We knew there was something wrong with our daughter’s death. We suspected other things, but we never imagined it would be the person sleeping next to her!"

"Sigh... but never mind. At least the truth is out now, and that’s a relief. We’ll transfer the two-million-yuan commission to you."

Gu Shengsheng quickly tried to refuse, but she couldn’t win the argument. The money was transferred directly to her account.
