Chapter 587: Terrifying Thinking

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Gu Yundong nodded in agreement. “I really don’t know how terrifying he is.”

Madam Bao instantly smiled and looked at Shao Qingyuan maliciously.

But then, Gu Yundong’s voice turned cold. She changed the topic and said sharply, “But I do know how scary your Li family is.”

The smile on Madam Bao’s face froze. She turned to look at Gu Yundong in surprise. “W-What do you mean?”

“What do I mean?” Gu Yundong sneered. “Have you forgotten that when Shao Qingyuan was five years old, you threw the weak child into the mountains to feed the wolves just because of a nightmare? You treated human lives like grass and were inhumane.”

The villagers watching outside the courtyard instantly widened their eyes. The Li family’s eldest branch had once thrown the five-year-old Shao Qingyuan into the mountains to feed the wolves?

Even Chen Liang looked at Gu Yundong in surprise. Then, he suddenly faced Madam Bao.

Eldest Li and his wife turned pale and were about to retort.

Unexpectedly, Gu Yundong quickly said, “Or have you forgotten that when Shao Qingyuan was eight years old, you colluded with the human traffickers in the county and sold him to them, almost making him unable to come back?”

Madam Bao retorted almost subconsciously, “We didn’t take a single cent. It’s not considered selling.”

Gu Yundong laughed. “So, you admit to colluding with the human traffickers?”

“I…” Only then did Madam Bao realize that she had said something she shouldn’t have. There was no chance to deny it anymore.

The villagers gasped in unison. They did not know that the Li family had actually done such a thing.

Someone could not help but look at the people from the second and third branches and ask, “Is it true? Eldest Li and his wife really…”

Of course, the second and third branches knew what had happened back then. They lived in the same house and were not deaf or blind.

However, in the face of everyone’s questions, they only lowered their heads and stammered, “We don’t know. How could we know what they did?”

With that, they rushed back. They did not care if the eldest branch was dead or alive. They were very selfish.

However, the villagers had completely believed this.

Previously, when they heard that Eldest Li had thrown Shao Qingyuan into the mountains, they could still condemn him for his ruthlessness. However, it was none of their business. Other than scolding him ruthlessly, they could not do anything else.

But that was not the case for the latter part.

Colluding with the human traffickers??

The person who was sold back then was Shao Qingyuan. Then, would their own child be sold someday if they had a grudge against Elder Li?

At the thought of this, the villagers were filled with wariness and anger towards the Li family.

Coupled with the fact that Li Chunyan, who was only six years old, dared to kill someone with a pair of scissors, was this hereditary? This family was hard­hearted and ruthless.

There were some things that couldn’t be thought about. The more they thought about it, the more terrifying it became.

For example, when Li Dabao and Li Erbao played with the others in the village, they would fight with them since they were young. In the past, everyone did not take it seriously, but now that they thought about it, didn’t the kids beat others up until they were covered in injuries?

That was when they were young. If there was a conflict when they grew up, would they greet others with knives?

Also, was Old Master Li really as kind as he looked to Shao Qingyuan?

If Old Master Li treated him well, would Shao Qingyuan leave him alone?

Someone couldn’t help but ask, “Then, did Old Master Li know about these things?”
