Gu Zedong returned home after she heard the news of her daughter passing away so suddenly. No matter how disappointed and hurt Gu Zedong was because of what her daughter did, she didn't want Gu Mu to die. In fact, she was thinking about speaking to her mother once again after she softened her stance regarding Gu Mu.

But before she could do that Gu Mu was dead, how was it possible?

"Tai Tai!" Gu Zedong rushed inside Kong Tai's courtyard when she returned home. When Kong Tai saw his wife, he did not care about anyone and threw himself in the arms of his wife.

"Wife, look at this…our daughter… Mu Mu.. who could do something so cruel to her?" Kong Tai cried out in an aggrieved voice. His words kept getting choked on sobs as he hugged his wife and cried in her arms.

Gu Zedong's eyes also turned red. How could they not? She loved Gu Mu more than Gu Ke Jin despite Gu Ke Jin being her eldest daughter. Because Kong Tai was her childhood sweetheart and she loved him, Gu Zedong was biased towards Kong Tai but suddenly everything was ruined.

Her daughter was first taken to the Yamen and two days later she was dead. What was going on? And how did Gu Mu come out of the Yamen? There were so many questions that Gu Zedong wanted to ask but when she saw Kong Tai crying his eyes out, she didn't bring such ugly matters up.

She looked at her daughter's face and then closed her eyes. Even without looking at her daughter Gu Zedong knew that Gu Mu must have suffered a lot when she was killed.

However, who killed her, Gu Zedong had no idea about it. And just what kind of grudge they had to kill her daughter so ruthlessly? No matter what her daughter did, she didn't deserve to be killed like this, right?

"We need to call the Yamen," Li Jing spoke up finally. His feelings were complicated as he looked at Gu Mu's corpse. Though he hated her, he did not despise her to the point that he would want her dead, and now that Li Jing saw Gu Mu dying in such a cruel manner, all of his grudges seemed to have been washed away.

Like his father told him. What was the point of keeping grudges with the dead? Now he just wanted to bring justice to Gu Mu.

However, who would have thought that as long as he said that they should call Yamen, Kong Tai turned to look at him and exclaimed, "NO!"

His sudden refusal took everyone by surprise. Even Old Madam Gu.

They all wanted to bring Gu Mu justice by finding her murderer but the person who should have been in the lead suddenly pulled his legs back. What was going on?

Kong Tai who refused instinctively bit his tongue. He ended up getting panicked when Lin Jing brought up Yamen, after what happened to Gu Mu and Mei Shu, he knew that Yamen was not just for show. If they pulled Yamen officers in this matter, then his daughter would be humiliated even more and that too when she was already gone.

What was more he even felt guilty and regretful. Last night he heard a lot of groaning and cries from the backyard, it was clearly Gu Mu who was crying for his help… however, Kong Tai who was angry and upset with the world didn't pay attention to it.

His daughter was right next to him. She was dying most cruelly yet Kong Tai turned a deaf ear to it and continued to sleep. He even cursed Gu Mu to die for disturbing his sleep when he thought about how he had missed the best chance to save his daughter Kong Tai felt as if the ground had been snatched from under his feet.

He was already ashamed and regretful. If not for the fact that he had to be there for his daughter's funeral, he would have gone crazy by now.

Because of his guilt, he couldn't let anyone find out about what his daughter did or else his daughter would lose whatever respect and love she had in the eyes of her family.

Lin Jing however was smart enough to catch the gleam of guilt in the eyes of Kong Tai's eyes. He knew that this matter was not as simple as it seemed. Though Gu Mu killed a lot of mers, she was really sly and only bullied the ones that were weak and didn't have any backing.

There was no way the family members of those mers would be able to do something like this, it only meant that Gu Mu had offended someone she should not have.

And Kong Tai knew about it!

"Out with it, what did you?" He questioned Kong Tai. At this moment, all the sympathy he had for Kong Tai and Gu Mu vanished in an instant. In fact, Lin Jing also thought that he was the one who was foolish to even feel sorry for these two!
